But Zhang Pin continued to talk: "What is your target? Antiques? It should be paintings and calligraphy. It seems that it cannot be gold. Although gold is easy to discount, there are only three of you, how much can you move away?
.”
After hearing Zhang Pin's analysis, Ahai and Hongdou almost thought they had encountered a ghost.
If it weren't for the concern that Zhang Pin and Carter both looked tall and strong, and there were so many people coming and going here, they would have chosen to silence them long ago.
Because despite their denials, the two of them were actually male and female robbers, and this time they were planning to escort the transport truck, and they really had an accomplice who was ready to take action.
"Didn't you agree to treat me to dinner? Let's agree first. I only have thirty US dollars with me, and you have to pay for the meal."
Just when Ahai and Hongdou were at a loss, Carter suddenly stepped forward to help them out.
"Eat, eat, I'm just joking with you."
Zhang Pin nodded. Carter's words reminded him that now was not the time to joke with others. The top priority was to find Xiurong as soon as possible.
"Of course I know you are joking. That escort truck is an exhibit lent by Rabbit to Lao Mei. To snatch that batch of goods is to offend Rabbit and Lao Mei at the same time. Who would do such a stupid thing?"
When Ah Hai heard Zhang Pin's words, he didn't care whether he was really joking or not. He hurriedly found a reason for himself.
"By the way, I suddenly remembered that I forgot to close the window when I went out."
As he spoke, he winked at Anko.
"Ah, that's too bad. I also remembered that I forgot to put away my underwear when I went out in the morning."
The two of them turned around and left while talking.
"There's something wrong with these two!"
The two people's nonchalant behavior made Carter immediately alert.
Although Zhang Pinhe and the two of them spoke in Cantonese before, Carter still saw some clues based on his rich experience.
"Didn't you say you wanted to eat? It's after dinner time."
At this moment, Zhang Pin was minding his own business and walking towards the restaurant.
"Eat, eat, this is not our jurisdiction in the south of the city anyway."
When Carter heard Zhang Pin's words, he immediately rolled his eyes and no longer cared about A Hai and Hong Dou who were leaving.
“Have some General Tso’s chicken and egg rolls”
Carter entered the restaurant and went straight to some famous American Chinese dishes.
Zhang Pin didn't care about this, he focused on the waiter wearing a cheongsam.
It wasn't that America felt lonely after Sir Zhang came, but that he discovered a secret on the waiter's chest.
"Sir, what would you like to eat?"
The waitress noticed Zhang Pin's gaze, but instead of resisting, she puffed up her chest and looked at Zhang Pin with a seductive look.
"Let's serve some of your signature dishes. By the way, what is this thing you are wearing?"
Sir Zhang was indifferent to the waitress's actions. In terms of scale, few people can compare with Marydonna. Besides, now that Amin is pregnant, the scale has become much larger.
A guy like Sir Zhang who has eaten too much fine bran will not be unable to walk when he sees a pair of big ones.
He calmly took out a few US dollar bills and put them on the table, then pointed to a pendant on the waitress's chest without leaving any trace.
"Is this thing really valuable? It was given to me by a friend of mine."
When the waitress saw the hundred-dollar bill Zhang Pin placed on the table, her eyes almost watered.
After hearing Zhang Pin's inquiry, she naturally responded cooperatively.
"I don't know if it's worth anything, but it just looks a little special."
Zhang Pin smiled. In fact, he recognized the pendant, which was worn by the kidnapped Xiurong.
This pendant was bought at the night market after Consul Han passed by Hong Kong Island last time and everyone had dinner together.
Seeing this pendant, Zhang Pin was relieved a lot, at least he wasn't looking for the wrong place.
"That nigger is a cop. If they come here, will we be exposed?"
While Zhang Pin and Carter were feasting at the Fuzhou Hotel, several people in a room on the third floor acted as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
One of them apparently recognized Carter's identity.
"Just be careful and don't get into trouble. To be on the safe side, you should call us early and get the money in hand."
The people on the third floor of Fuzhou Hotel are surprisingly the guys from Xiurong who were kidnapped on the street today.
The person giving the order at this time was a white man.
"The troublesome guy surnamed Han caused us to lose a lot of antiques. Let them compensate us for the money themselves."
The reason why they targeted Consul Han was very simple.
Some time ago, this group of people tried to get a batch of antiques, which they planned to sell on Hong Kong Island.
In the end, Consul Han found out who knew the news, and he informed the Hong Kong Island Police. In the end, the gang lost both people and money.
When something like this happens, for ordinary people, it is natural to think that they are unlucky, but this group of people obviously feel that they are extraordinary.
How dare they target diplomats.
"How much ransom is required?"
When the yellow-haired Ma Tao heard the boss's words, not only did he not feel afraid, but he became excited.
For outlaws like them, money is the most important thing.
"One hundred million! I want them to compensate me one hundred million!"
The white man's appetite is obviously huge.
"good!"
And after hearing the other party's words, the breathing of others present also became rapid.
One hundred million dollars.
They are in a group, and as long as they get the money, everyone will naturally have a share.
The top priority now is, of course, to make every effort to ensure that the ransom can be obtained by then.
During this period, they naturally couldn't take care of small characters like Carter.
In order to stabilize the two of them, they even asked the hotel chef to make the food more delicious.
Just as Zhang Pin and Carter were enjoying their meal, the phone inside the consulate rang again.
"Have someone from the Bureau of Investigation answer the phone."
Ma Tao was very arrogant. Apparently he had known for a long time that the kidnapping case would alert the investigation bureau.
At this time, Warren from the Bureau of Investigation happened to be arguing with Consul Han over whether they could monitor the phone lines within the consulate.
"Sir, the consulate is private property and you have no right to monitor it."
Consul Han saw through the other party's thoughts at a glance. The other party deliberately monitored the phone calls and wanted to find out whether his daughter was fake. The most fundamental thing was to take the opportunity to find out other secrets.
People from the Investigation Bureau have been at the consulate for most of the day. They tried every possible means to investigate within the consulate, but no one went out to inquire about the information.
Because of this, Consul Han hoped that Zhang Pin would arrive as soon as possible.
Previously, Yang Jianhua said that Zhang Pin had boarded the plane, but now he has not seen him come to the consulate.
However, in order to deal with the people from the Investigation Bureau, Consul Han was unable to escape for a while.
"The other party will definitely call, Consul Han. I hope you can cooperate with us."
Warren looked selfless.
Jingle Bell--
As if to match Warren's words, as soon as he finished speaking, the consulate's external phone suddenly rang.
Consul Han picked up the phone and heard the other party asking someone from the Investigation Bureau to answer the phone.
It was impossible for him to refuse now, so he could only cooperate and give Warren the phone.
"If you want Consul Han's daughter to be okay, prepare 100 million US dollars for me, all in old non-consecutive banknotes, of which 50 million will have a face value of 50, 30 million will have a face value of 20, and 20 million will have to be
It’s ten yuan, and it needs to be ready before eleven o’clock tonight.”
After Warren answered the phone, Ma Tao immediately put forward his conditions.
"Why not five yuan and one yuan? Are you too worried that you can't take it away?"
After hearing Ma Tao's request, Warren asked the other party unhurriedly.
While he was talking, he looked at a colleague next to him.
The other party is using technical means to lock Ma Tao's call location.
"I'm not kidding you."
"Sir, I'm not kidding. Even Mr. Gates can't collect 100 million U.S. dollars in just a few hours, let alone if you ask for all the money."
Warren still spoke slowly and slowly.
"You should reconsider it. If I give you one million dollars, I guarantee that it will be ready at eleven o'clock."
If he didn't work in the investigation bureau, he would be a good hand in business.
In one breath, the ransom of 100 million was reduced to 1 million, a direct reduction of ninety-nine times.
Ma Tao on the other end of the phone seemed to be really shocked by what he said. There was silence for nearly half a minute before the news came again.
"Our bottom line is 50 million U.S. dollars. We only need fifty, twenty and ten-dollar bills. If we are not ready before 11 o'clock tonight, then we will wait to collect the little girl's body."
After 30 seconds of silence, Ma Tao actually lowered the ransom amount, and then the other party quickly hung up the phone without giving Warren a chance to speak again.
“The location is correct, it’s in the Broadway area!”
However, such a long time was enough for the Bureau's technical staff to find the location of the source of the call.
"Send out two teams of commandos to rescue me!"
With the phone signal source in hand, Warren showed plenty of confidence.
In the land of America, no one can compete with the Bureau of Investigation.
boom--
Zhang Pin had a full meal and just put down his chopsticks when there was a huge explosion not far away.
Although Carter on the opposite side was full, he still couldn't bear to put down his fork. As a result, he was shocked by the explosion and his whole body was swallowed instantly.
This guy didn't want to spit out what he had eaten, and his dark face suddenly turned red.
puff--
In the end, Zhang Pin couldn't stand it anymore and punched his opponent in the stomach, then turned his head to avoid Carter's spray.
"What's going on? Damn it, could it be an earthquake? I almost swallowed you, Uncle Carter, to death."
Carter finally encountered a delicious meal, but unexpectedly, he almost died after being swallowed.
At this moment, he stood up angrily and wanted to go there to find trouble with the perpetrator.
"There was an explosion just now. Could it be that your colleagues did something?"
When Zhang Pin asked, he also took a special look at the stairwell on the second floor of the hotel.
He noticed that shortly before the explosion, someone was looking this way at the top of the stairs.
"What, an explosion? That requires me, Detective Carter, to go and see what's going on."
Unexpectedly, Carter had a sense of justice. When he heard about the police action, he immediately stood up and prepared to leave.
"Sir, our boss has invited you."
But before the two of them could move, the waitress who had taken orders for them came over.
"Why did your boss invite us?"
Carter was obviously very surprised when he heard the waitress's invitation.
"I guess I discovered your identity as a police officer. Be careful. This store is not simple. I'll go out and have a look."
Zhang Pin was also a little surprised when he heard that the waitress had extended an invitation to him. He had never imagined that this group of people was so courageous. He hadn't even bothered them yet, but it seemed that the other party was preparing to take action against him.
But this also shows that there should be no problem with the direction you are looking for. Xiurong should be in the restaurant.
After all, if this restaurant was really innocent, it wouldn't be so crazy as to attack the two policemen.
He has no interest in fighting with these people here.
Since the other party has decided to take action, theoretically the hostages should also be transferred.
Because killing a police officer is a felony everywhere, the only difference is which side has more power, and then it will affect the subsequent development of the matter.
The reason why Zhang Pin was surprised by the courage of this group of people was because compared to the Luojishan police, no matter how great this group of people were, they could not be the opponents of the Luojishan police.
Since they were determined to imprison or kill Carter, the policeman, they must have made preparations for transfer.
Zhang Pin is going out now just to wait and see.
After going out, Zhang Pin discovered why these guys had the courage to attack the police.
By this time, Chinatown was already in chaos. A building next to the Broadway Theater was still in flames, surrounded by evacuated people and various vehicles.
Zhang Pin even discovered that many people were taking advantage of the chaos to attack some stores and conduct zero-yuan purchases.
In this chaotic situation, it was actually somewhat difficult for Zhang Pin to take the opportunity to find the kidnapped Xiurong.
Fortunately, the Fuzhou Restaurant is so big after all. Zhang Pin walked around from the front to the back and found a white van parked not far away.
At this time, the car was in the starting state, but there was no one in the cab. Instead, there was a sound coming from the car behind.
Seeing this, Zhang Pin did not rush forward. Instead, he called the police first and said that he knew that the person behind the explosion was in the Fuzhou Hotel.
Then he looked around the car again, and soon he noticed that there was a person under a tree not far from the car looking around cautiously.
So he walked towards the other party's location calmly.
The people under the tree obviously also noticed Zhang Pin, but his Asian face confuses the person under the tree with the same Asian face.
Because this is Chinatown, where the largest number of Chinese and Asian faces gather.
Not to mention that Sir Zhang was dressed like a tourist, so this guy who was showing off did not pay attention to him at all. ()
