Nine idlers

Among the interested people who were attracted to Florence by the museum bombing and the behavior of the Jews, there were three people who were very special. They didn't gather around the ruins and use various methods to spy on what happened inside, and they didn't talk to other Florence people. Contact the underground forces in order to obtain the desired information.Instead, the three of them were like three leisurely tourists sitting in the tavern on the edge of the Lord's Square drinking leisurely, listening to those idle Italians and slackers drinking and bragging.

At this time, a child who can be seen everywhere in Florence ran to the bar, looked around, and before the bartender came to drive him out, he ran in front of the three people who were incompatible with the surroundings, and said to the young man in the middle: "They I found an iron gate there," perhaps because he felt that his words were not accurate, and added: "Underground, an iron gate leading to the ground."

"Hmm! Very good." The young man smiled, took out two small notes from his pocket, handed them to the boy, touched his head, and signaled him to leave.

The boy was still a little reluctant when he left, and looked back at the young man from time to time, as if waiting for the other party to stop him, and then assign some tasks that could earn a small amount of money, but unfortunately the young man didn't respond until the impatient waiter drove him out of the bar. Opening his mouth, the unwilling little boy stuck out his tongue at the waiter standing at the door, and then quickly fled to the crowd in the square with small steps.

"What did you put in there?" Watching the little boy disappear into the crowd, the burly one among the three asked the young man in the middle curiously.

"Some good things." The young man smiled slightly, and said to another young man who looked similar to him but looked a little older beside him, "Wait a minute, you go to the next step, be careful not to reveal your identity gone."

"Understood." Hearing the order, the young man responded immediately.

While the three youths were talking, in the ruins of the Bronte Museum less than three blocks away from Piazza della Signoria, the Jews had already dug a passage beside the iron door in the basement. After the passage was opened, they had already waited The impatient Abraham left his assistant on the ground to preside over the affairs, while he himself led a few of his men into the tunnel.

Entering the basement passage from the narrow passage just excavated, Abraham turned on the light on the miner's cap on his head to clearly illuminate the situation in the main basement passage.After confirming that there were no other dangers around, he raised his hand and climbed the escalator embedded in one side of the wall and moved down step by step.

This passage is longer than Abraham expected, and it is estimated that at least 20 meters down to the bottom, such a deep depth is beyond the exploration range of the clairvoyant in their operation group.However, the deeper the passage was, the more excited Abraham felt, because in his opinion, the basement was built so deep, and the secrets hidden in it must be extraordinary.

With such excitement, Abraham crawled down for more than 30 meters, and finally saw the end of the passage below under the illumination of the miner's lamp.I saw that, like the above, the channel lens is also an iron door, and a special combination lock similar to a bank safe is installed on the iron door.

"Stern, this is your job." Because the bottom of the passage was very narrow, Abraham did not go down, but said to a middle-aged man in the third place above.

After hearing the order, the middle-aged man checked the height with his eyes, jumped off the escalator, and stepped firmly on the edge of the safety iron door below.After standing still, he squatted down and took out a headband-shaped device from the package, then connected the wire, and pasted the special induction patch on the other end of the wire around the iron door below.After he was ready, he put on the headband, and then held the rotating rod of the safety door with both hands, while slowly turning it dry, while carefully sensing and analyzing the slight current fed back from the iron door sensing patch .

Soon there were several mechanical clicking sounds from the iron door, and the middle-aged man quickly put the sensor patch, wires and other devices on it back into the backpack, making room for Abraham.

Abraham went down to the bottom. Through his method, he carefully inspected the perimeter of the iron gate, but found no other protective measures. There was only a sensor device and a dark wire inside the gate. As long as the gate was opened, a signal would be transmitted from the dark wire. to a light or alarm on the ground.But now the above indicator light and alarm device have been destroyed in the explosion, and this device naturally loses its function.

"Be careful, everyone." Although it was confirmed that there was no danger, Abraham still reminded everyone in the passageway that he slowly opened the iron gate after everyone in the passage had made some protective preparations.

The creaking sound of the iron door opening was extremely ear-piercing in the silent passage, followed by a gust of stale air gushing out from the basement due to the difference in air pressure inside and outside.Although the turbid air made the people around feel suffocated, there was no other serious problem.

After waiting for a while, Abraham took the lead in lowering the hanging ladder prepared at the entrance and entered the basement. With the help of the miner's lamp, he quickly found the light switch in the basement.Perhaps it is because the wiring in the basement is not the same as the wiring on the ground. After the switch is turned on, the large wattage bulbs illuminate the entire basement, and the entire basement is clear at a glance.

I saw that the basement is not so much a warehouse as an archive room. There are filing cabinets connected to the top on the walls around the basement. Judging from various traces, there should be a lot of files in the filing cabinets. Documents, but now these documents have been taken away.In addition, there is a military sand table in the center of the basement. This sand table perfectly restores the whole of Florence, which looks like a three-dimensional street view map of Florence.From the newness and oldness of each miniature building on the sand table and the time traces of placement, it is not difficult to see that this sand table should be made little by little over several years or ten years.

"Search every file cabinet carefully to see if there are any omissions." The situation in the basement made Abraham feel slightly depressed. Although he felt that there could be nothing valuable here, he still ordered the other people who went down to the basement. His subordinates searched carefully, while he himself stood in front of the sand table and looked at the large military model carefully.

"Boss, don't you think this sand table is weird?" Howard, who followed, did not look for missing items in the surrounding filing cabinets, but stood next to Abraham, looking at the city model in front of him, and said.

"What's weird?" Although Abraham didn't like Howard, he also knew that this young man had extraordinary powers of observation because of some past events, so he didn't let his emotions affect his judgment and asked directly.

Howard pointed to the base under the model and said, "If it's just a city model, the base below shouldn't need to be so thick. Maybe there's something under such a thick base?"

Hearing Howard's words, Abraham's eyes could not help but brighten, and his eyes shifted to the base. He looked carefully, then squatted down and searched carefully on the base, and soon found a mechanism.

He was naturally very happy when he found the mechanism, but he was not overwhelmed by the joy. He did not rush to pull the mechanism, but carefully searched around the mechanism, and searched the entire sand table model in a more rigorous way After confirming that there is no trap, he told everyone to be careful and tried to pull the mechanism.

With the sound of gears turning from inside the sand table, the entire sand table began to be lifted upwards under the action of more than a dozen pillars. The original one-piece sand table base was divided into three, and it became three different three-dimensional topographic maps. .

The first topographic map was obviously the municipal sewer network in Florence, which Abraham had studied before, so he recognized it immediately.The topographic map on the second floor looks familiar. Many places overlap with municipal sewers, but more places are completely different from sewers.And the bottom layer is not so much a topographic map, but a very complicated magic formation map, but this formation map is incomplete, and many key parts are blank.

"This should be a topographic map of the sewers of ancient Rome." After squatting down and carefully looking at the topographic map of the third floor, Howard pointed to the topographic map on the second floor that overlapped with the sewers of Florence with certainty, and said, "I was in the university. When I learned the history of ancient Roman architecture, Florence was a city built on the ruins of the Roman city. During the Renaissance, the Medici family rebuilt the sewers of Florence several times to solve the problem of urban water accumulation, a part of ancient Rome The sewers were also reactivated and incorporated into the Florentine sewer network, which is still in use today."

Abraham didn't speak. Actually, Howard didn't need to say it. He also recognized that the topographic map on the second floor was the topographic map of the sewers in ancient Rome. What really caught his attention at the moment was the magic circle map on the bottom floor. This map It made him feel a little familiar, but he couldn't remember what it was.

"Head, take a look at this." At this time, a subordinate who was checking the filing cabinet suddenly found a folder that had been missed from the bottom crack of a filing cabinet. However, he was extremely shocked by the content, and hurriedly took it to Abraham.

Abraham took the folder, flipped through the information inside, his face changed suddenly, and he looked extremely solemn and murderous.

Seeing Abraham's expression, Howard on the side was also very curious. He stretched his head over and peeked at the opened folder. The first thing he saw was a list of items, many of which were from the world. The top art works, and the names of these works of art are also well-known in Jewish organizations.

"Is this a Nazi treasure?" Howard was startled, and couldn't help but said, "Could it be that Bronte is the gatekeeper of the maze?" (~^~)
