After using the spirit card to confirm that the oil painting was indeed the missing "Naked Maha", Li Yi couldn't help but wonder who was Kusta's grandfather? Why did so many friends give him gifts and give him some good things?

When talking about this issue, although Custa felt a little embarrassed, he finally told the truth.

"When my grandfather was young, he was the personal bodyguard of a senior Italian military official during World War II. And that senior official happened to be responsible for the liaison between several countries in the Axis League at that time, so both Japanese and Germans were very polite to him..."

Li Yi suddenly realized that it was like that!

It turns out that whether it is the porcelain or the oil painting in front of them, they are all things stolen by the Nazi invaders at that time! Then... what else is there to be polite?!

"If Mr. Custa intends to take action on this painting, I can also pay 20,000 euros!"

When Li Yi quoted this price, he actually felt a little ashamed of his shamelessness. His behavior was probably no different from those invaders at that time. But then he found a reasonable reason for himself, he was doing the way for heaven!

Moreover, instead of letting this famous pearl be buried here and may be thrown away as garbage at some time, it is better to give it to him to do something meaningful and it can return to where it should go and enjoy the glory of the past!

"You said this painting is worth 20,000 euros too? Oh Shet, I know! Fortunately, I didn't listen to those guys' foolings!"

Kusta waved his arm excitedly and continued:

"Just a few days ago, a friend of mine brought an old Japanese man to visit me for another thing. They also saw this painting at that time, but do you know that Li, that old Japanese man actually offered only two thousand euros! two thousand euros! Oh my God, fortunately I was not moved by them!"

Custa looked very grateful, and the last bit of shame in Li Yi's heart disappeared with this passage. Sure enough, there was no shame the most shameless, only even more shameless!

However, since all the Japanese have come, these pieces of porcelain...

"Hahaha, do they think I am a fool? Although my grandfather was just the guard of that big man at that time, I think that even if the gifts given to him were not valuable, they would be worth more than two thousand euros now, right? So I didn't mention that I had Japanese porcelain at that time, but just dealt with them and sent them away..."

Li Yi let out a long breath of turbid air. Fortunately, this guy is a little clever. Otherwise, his loss would be a small matter, and he would have suffered a lot!

"Of course, my police officers for the past twenty years were not in vain. I knew there was something wrong with their expressions at that time! Of course, it was precisely because of their reminder that I immediately found you when I saw that you were interested in that coffee cup. Speaking of which, I should thank them!"

Seeing Custa’s excited expression on his face, Li Yi secretly wiped a cold sweat. Indeed, you should thank them well, but what you didn’t know was that although you were lucky enough to escape the first wave of robbers, you personally took the second robber to your own house and even regarded it as a guest of honor!

Mom, this world is really sinister!

Forget it, go back and pray to the temple. I hope this guy will never know the truth, otherwise he will really cry to death like his name!

After quickly signing the agreement, Li Yi took this treasure that is likely to be worth hundreds of millions of dollars!

After doing all this, he looked at Kusta with a smile on his face and said:

"Officer Custa, now you should believe that I am just an ordinary antique businessman, right? So, can you tell me the boss' phone number? I really just want to buy him a piece of antique furniture."

Hearing Li Yi say this, Kusta didn't even hesitate, and directly called back to the police station. He was about to get the phone number soon.

"That guy is named Alfred. He is said to be very cunning and often uses some problematic antiques to deceive customers. So, Li, you must be careful. If you find any problems, remember to notify me as soon as possible. You must know that although our police station manages that market, none of us will believe that the things they sell will be real antiques!"

Li Yi wiped a cold sweat again, but fortunately they didn't believe it. Otherwise, he would just find a guy who has a research on Chinese porcelain to help him see the set of Flower God Cups. He probably won't have anything to do with him...

After figuring out how thrilling this time, Li Yi decided to find something to make up for it, otherwise he would be too sorry for his scared brain cells.

When others want to make up for it, they mostly eat a good meal, but Li Yi is different because the partner he wants to make up for it is the lucky guy who came to the door with the initiative.

Saying goodbye to Custa, Li Yi told Lanzhu about Alfred's phone number, and then he called Hengshan Jinglu.

"What, Mr. Li actually has a Kuroya boiling water finger from Master Abe Bihai! Wait, I'll tell my father immediately!"

After hanging up the phone, Li Yi knew that he might have underestimated those few Kyutani sausages... But since Yokoyama Yasuhiro revealed this information, then...

He didn't realize that his thoughts at this moment were exactly the same as those Chinese people he remembered who had just known the value of his antiques!

After a while, the phone number from Hengshan Jinglu did not wait, but Lan Zhu called in.

"We were one step late. That afternoon, not long after you left the market, the guy sold the desk to a Japanese..."

Is it Japanese again? Damn, do you want to be so terrified?!

Suddenly, when he remembered Hengshan Jinglu who had just called, Li Yi couldn't help but tremble. Damn it, it's not such a coincidence, right?

"Then have you asked him what that Japanese looks like?"

"I asked, it was an old man and a middle-aged man, and the old man had gray hair..."

I'll go! I didn't expect that they were really the two guys, Hengshan and his son! Now, I really have to think about it carefully.

Half an hour later, the phone call from Jinglu of Hengshan came over.

"Mr. Li, where are you now? If it is convenient, let's meet?"

Li Yi nodded. If they really could not help but not look for him, he would also find a way to talk to them, because the longer the desk was in their hands, the greater the possibility of being recognized. Although this possibility should be very small, he dare not gamble and there is no need to take this risk.

After the two parties made an appointment to meet at the last pizza restaurant at noon, Li Yi took Hongchen and took a taxi to a Italian United Sao Paulo Bank in the city center.

Italy United Sao Paulo Bank is currently the largest banking group in Italy. Now Li Yi carries five treasures with the elephant-headed god wood carving and yellow gem pendant, which are probably worth more than 100 million yuan. In addition, he has encountered a female thief before, which makes him dare not be careless at all.

The staff of United São Paulo Bank were very enthusiastic, but when they saw that Li Yi was actually carrying a huge oil painting, they couldn't help but frown.

"Sir, our safes with a larger outlet have been rented out, so I want to negotiate with you and put these things in another branch. I don't know you..."

Li Yi frowned and actually put it in another place? Forget it, he is the most familiar area. Besides, this thing doesn’t have to be placed in any designated bank. He remembers that it seems that there is a big bank opposite this one.

"Oh Sauri, sir, please wait a moment? I'll ask the leader immediately to see if I can coordinate with you."

When the staff saw that he was about to leave, they became a little anxious. They quickly said something, then hurriedly opened the door of the reception room and ran out.

Unexpectedly, he saw the leader who was patrolling as soon as he went out.

"Oh, Mr. Bob, you're here, that's great. There's such a guest now..."

After briefly introducing Bob, the staff led him into the reception room.

Bob is a tall and handsome middle-aged man, but if Li Yi had seen the family of the female thief, he would definitely recognize him. This person is Tris's father Earl Bob!

Because Kusta's family did not have anything specifically used to package oil paintings, the oil paintings that Li Yi brought to the bank were simply covered with a few newspapers. As soon as Bob came in, he saw the naked woman's avatar, and then his brows frowned.

"You go and tell Chris, just say I said it, and ask him to check the spare safe No. 3 again. After confirming that it can be used, please tell me."

The staff agreed to leave in a hurry, but Bob hesitated for a moment and said to Li Yi:

"Hello, sir, we will immediately start a spare safe to undertake your business, but before that, I had a personal unhappy request. Can I appreciate your oil painting?"

Hearing this, Li Yi frowned. But then he thought that the things could not be left here for two days anyway, and even if he recognized them, there should be no problem, so he nodded, stood up and uncovered the newspapers that were simply pasted on the picture frame glass with transparent glue.

"hiss!"

With just a simple glance, Bob gasped, and then he bent down and looked carefully at the lower left and right corners of the canvas, then got up and hesitated:

"Sir, is the signature of this painting... on the back of the canvas? Is it the "Naked Maha" by Francisco Goya?"

When Li Yi saw that he actually recognized the painting at a glance, he couldn't help but have a headache. When Bob saw his expression, he immediately realized that he had made a mistake and quickly explained:

"I'm sorry, because I'm so surprised, very sorry, as a bank employee, I shouldn't have done this. But, sir, I'm so surprised, so can you leave me a contact information? I want to invite you to lunch!"
