Underground, in a small room that is not very large but cannot be shaken by ordinary artillery shells, several people stand scattered, looking at a rickety figure in silence and boredom. Standing at a door that looks impregnable from all angles.
In front of the thick and heavy door, he manipulated various instruments and equipment around him, constantly trying to decipher something. Occasionally he raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, mumbling various unintelligible professional terms in his mouth, looking enthusiastic and focused.
This is the vault of Xijiao Bank, or to be more precise, it is outside the vault. The attractive wealth is right in front of you, and you can get it at your fingertips. Of course, the prerequisite is to open this door that looks like a natural chasm.
In fact, the progress is good, at least there is something to play.
This is not because the bank's protection system is too weak. You know that is impossible. At most, the security level is not that high, and the update is not that fast. This is understandable. After all, the environment is different. The so-called robbery here
Banks basically limit themselves to robbing counters and cash machines, and at most they can rob cash trucks. There are very few who can rob the vault, and basically none.
Having said that, those bank vaults in Europe and the United States with top security levels and the most advanced technology in the world are always robbed every now and then. This is not a technical issue. To put it simply, as long as there is a lock, it can
Being unlocked is a destined relationship of cause and effect. The only difference lies in the skill of the person who unlocks the lock.
The somewhat neurotic, rickety man in front of him is undoubtedly quite skilled in his craftsmanship... It is just a judgment based on feeling, with no basis. In fact, several people present could not understand it at all, but this did not affect their unclear sense of perception, and they could bluff him.
If you live with them, it should be reliable...
Okay, just kidding. In fact, the most important thing is because of the opponent's record and reputation. The rickety man's nickname is Water Ghost. He is not a member of the Poison Arrow Mercenary Group. He is not even in the mercenary industry. He lives in the underground world.
A professional field, the field of robbery, the kind that specializes in robbing banks. The water ghost is one of the masters of technology. The reason why he came all the way this time is because of the invitation of Dragon Head Mask, the King Cobra Guan Wuhao. Between them
With a good friendship and the promise of benefits, I readily agreed to go on a business trip.
That's roughly the nature.
As for Guan Wuhao, who is now standing at the door of the small room, to be honest, although it is true that he invited the water ghost, it is just a backup plan just in case. In fact, he is the last thing he wants to see the other party take action. No.
He does not believe in the opponent's technology, but rather than technical cracking, he is more interested in force blasting. It is simple and crude but direct and effective. Technical cracking takes too long and too long, and it is easy for Ye Changmengduo to have accidents...
Just as I was thinking about it, the channel current started to rustle.
"Boss, I think we are in trouble. The police forces that were deployed outside are retreating... They must have been reminded to vacate a place and wait for professionals to take over."
"I know, please stay hidden."
After cutting off the call, Guan Wuhao looked at the concentrated water ghost and wanted to ask how much longer it would take, but in the end he held back and waved the two people around him to go out. Then he pointed at the middle-aged bald man curled up like a quail in the corner of the house.
, that is, President Yan, whose face was covered in black and blue, and his eye sockets were black, like a panda. He was obviously warmly entertained by these guys who came from afar and treated them as guests... He looked at the people who stayed here.
Spider-Man inserted his eyes and signaled to keep an eye on him, and the latter nodded knowingly.
I turned around and left, returning to the surface hall. I don’t know when music was played in the hall, soothing and beautiful pure music, Bandari’s Moonlight, which was of good taste. It came from a hostage mobile phone, which was placed in the hands of the husky robber. It should be him.
idea.
It seems to be trying to calm the panic of the hostages, but the specific effect is unclear, because at this time the hostages are squatting next to each other and tied together, with hoods on their heads, and their facial expressions cannot be seen at all... I think it has some effect.
Yes, I should be very moved, but I don’t dare to move.
"What are you doing?" A robber who came up from the underground obviously didn't like this style of music very much. He glared at the Hatches robber, "You should play reggae or heavy metal. We are robbing, not funeral!"
"
"Ossie, I'm sorry for your taste, and I'm even more sorry for your IQ. Don't you see that this music will be very helpful to our robbery business?"
"Shet! Shit..."
Guan Wuhao ignored the conflict between the musical concepts of the two team members. Mercenaries are not regular troops after all. In terms of discipline management, they are relatively lax. They live in cruel battlefields where life and death are fleeting all year round. There are those who have no tomorrow today and many who let themselves go.
It's just that he can't manage the thorns. As long as he still accepts the money and can obey the orders of his captain, the rest doesn't matter.
I walked to the window, opened the blinds, and looked outside. The defense forces I saw before had indeed disappeared. This was naturally not a complete withdrawal, but just a further extension of the battle line.
Frowning slightly, at this moment, a voice came from the headset again, the voice of the voice changer, "I'm here... come in from the top of the building and tell your people not to shoot, King Cobra."
Guan Wuhao was slightly startled when he heard this, and then his voice was cold: "You'd better stay outside, Mr. Employer."
"What's the meaning?"
"That's a good question. I also want to ask you what you mean. You provided the explosives, right? Bullshit! The humidity was so severe that most of them were scrapped and couldn't blow open the vault door. Is this your plan to rob the bank?"
There was silence in the communication channel for a while, "This was an accident, I'm sorry. I bought the explosives from other channels, and I don't know much about these things."
"That's your business. The fact now is that you haven't helped the operation at all. We are trying to solve everything. Now you want to come in and participate in the distribution. Do you think I will agree?"
"Don't forget, you were hired by me! I told you all the preliminary information, including which bank is easier to win!"
Guan Wuhao curled his lips disdainfully: "We will pay the middleman's intelligence fee."
"So, you are planning to leave me alone now?"
"You can say that...but you still have another chance." After a pause, Guan Wuhao thought of something, his heart moved slightly, and he slowly said, "Because of your shit explosives, we have to extend the operation time. Now the rise of Kyushu must have begun.
We can take care of this on the way here. But the other ghosts that may come... Mr. Employer, if you can stop or kill the ghosts, then you can naturally participate in the distribution again. This is fair, isn't it?"
"What if he doesn't come?"
"Then I can only say sorry."
After a while of silence, he said, "Okay, let's make an agreement first." After saying that, the voice changer was simply cut off. Beside the window, Guan Wuhao also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. A tough attitude was necessary, but at the same time, he did not want to fight with him before he succeeded.
There was a conflict with this mysterious employer. Although he did not know the identity of the other party, the huge pressure he put on him after several encounters was real. He was obviously not a simple character.
Of course, he also has deep confidence in the Poison Arrow mercenary group that he carefully built. No matter whether the other party has other intentions behind being so talkative, Guan Wuhao is not afraid. After all, they are the ones taking the initiative now.
Just as I was about to leave the window, I suddenly heard another sound. This time it was not from the headset, but through the cracks of the tempered glass and rolling shutter door. A strange and familiar dynamic melody, and a powerful and clear female voice, instantly filled the hall.
pure music,
"Don't miss it if you pass by, it's a rare opportunity, we have a full clearance sale, a loss sale, a full clearance sale..."
Cut off suddenly.
Guan Wuhao frowned and opened the blinds again to look. Outside the iron gate, on the right corner of the opposite street, there was a simple defense line built by the police with sandbags. Now there is another car parked. He should have come in during the conversation just now.
, forming a perfect angle with the sandbag defense line, protecting the small space in the middle. A loudspeaker poked out from time to time, as if it was debugging something.
"Did you press this? You can talk now... Ahem, um, I'm sorry. I came in a bit of a hurry. I didn't bring any professional equipment. It was temporarily borrowed from the shop next door... This is not important. What's important is
You have the right to remain silent. If you can't remain silent...oh, we don't seem to like this here. Wait, let me collect my thoughts..."
Bang, probably the sniper in a hidden location couldn't stand the nagging, so he shot the loudspeaker that was sticking out of the sandbag to pieces.
Zong Qing, who was behind the sandbags at the corner, carefully leaned over and looked at the fragments of the loudspeaker lying on the ground. He curled his lips and said, "I knew this would happen... Fortunately, I was prepared." He took out another loudspeaker, and this time it connected
Without showing his head, he shouted directly, "Let's talk, things will be solved eventually. The guy at nine o'clock should not be too irritable. Only by being calm can the problem be solved. I will send a mobile phone in, but you can't break it again."
"
As soon as he finished speaking, a remote-controlled aircraft with a mobile phone strapped to it flew out from the corner of the street and landed in front of the rolling shutter door with great accuracy. After a while, after confirming that there was no danger, a gap opened under the rolling shutter door, and an arm reached out and grabbed the mobile phone.
Seeing this, Zong Qing nodded with satisfaction. He threw away the loudspeaker in his hand, took out his mobile phone and made a call. It was a video call. After the screen lit up, he waved: "Hi, everyone from the Poison Arrow Mercenary Group, on behalf of the people of Lingjiang, I would like to say
Your arrival is not welcome."
Behind the camera, under the dragon mask, the corners of his mouth were raised, and he chuckled without any warmth, "Oh, the rise of Kyushu?"
"To be precise, it's the Lingjiang Branch of the Rise of Jiuzhou. I'm Zong Qing, but in front of the King of Snakes? I've been admiring you for a long time!" After a pause, "Okay, no more nonsense. You can't surrender. Let's talk.
Just mention what conditions are needed, and whether you agree or not is another matter. I'll listen first... Well, but before talking about this, I need to know how many hostages are there, and are there any casualties? This is very important, and you must answer truthfully.
.”
His attitude was not very polite, but Guan Wuhao was not angry at all. On the contrary, he cooperated very well and said: "About fifty or sixty, no details. As for the casualties, some of them were not very honest. They were shot in the thigh and had to be bandaged.
Can't die."
"I don't believe you. The person squatting behind you is probably a hostage. Give the phone to the person in the middle of the second-to-last row. I need to speak to him for confirmation."
"Can."
One makes requests, the other cooperates, it's quite harmonious. Don't think it's too strange. The normal process is just that both of them are wary of each other. Zong Qing is worried about the casualties of the hostages, and Guan Wuhao is even more worried.
They are not pure terrorists. They are not even professional in robbing banks. It is just a task. Although it seems to be their business now, the essence remains the same. It is not that they are afraid of this.
Death, few mercenaries are afraid of death, but the situation is far from that point yet, right?
This is why Guan Wuhao has always insisted on not committing unnecessary killings. He knows very well that his only weight now is this group of hostages. This is also the hope that their mercenary group can safely evacuate here. In other words, once the hostages die,
, their role has changed, from mercenaries to terrorists, and it is the consensus of all countries not to negotiate with terrorists. By then, whether they are willing or not, they will have to face directly without any
The Rise of Kyushu Attacks on Reasons for Compromise...
That is definitely a scene that neither party wants to see.
Now, at least a delicate balance can be maintained.
After confirming and appeasing the hostage, Zong Qing looked slightly calmer: "Very good, we can talk about it now. What do you want? First of all, let me state that there is no problem with the car. Don't think about helicopters or anything like that. That's not it.
Reality. As for the money, you are in the bank now. It is up to you to take more or less. There is no shortage if you think about it. How about... I will buy you a dinner with my own money first? It's getting late. In exchange,
You release the wounded for treatment, what's the deal like?"
"Not so good." Guan Wuhao shook his head, "I don't need anything for the time being. I'll treat you as acquaintances during this call. I'll call you again if necessary."
"OK, let's talk about it later."
Hanging up the phone with a smile, Zong Qing immediately stepped back and left the street under the escort of a group of police officers holding explosion-proof shields. Gao Changfeng walked towards him and said with a curl of his lips: "It's the Poison Arrow Mercenary Group. The hostages are still in a good mood."
It's considered stable, with only a few injured and no deaths. I didn't see clearly whether the winter spirit was inside or not. They put hoods on the hostages. Yes, they are very professional when crossing borders... It can be seen that they still want to talk.
Since they haven't made any demands now, it's probably because the vault hasn't been opened, or there's something unexpected going on somewhere that's why they're still here without moving. But they won't stay for too long, and they don't even want to eat dinner.
At most, it will be at nightfall. Later, the surrounding troops will come to support. By then, it will be difficult to escape. Guan Wuhao is not a fool, and he must know this."
After Tututu finished speaking, Gao Changfeng nodded to show understanding, turned around and looked at the surrounding buildings that were gradually covered by night: "The surrounding terrain is a bit complicated, and the commanding heights are basically under the opponent's control... Your previous judgment was correct.
, the ones left in the bank are definitely not the complete Poison Arrow mercenary group. They also have a team similar to a command center dispatching surveillance somewhere nearby. They have to find a way to dig it out, otherwise they will be very passive whether it is a sneak attack or a strong attack.
"
"Activate the police, and let Ganoderma lucidum track backwards through the interference shielding source. If there is a direction, it will be easier to find. After all, this is our home field."
"Well, besides, compared to this..." Gao Changfeng was silent for a moment, with a bitter look on his face, "I'm more worried about your previous speculation now."
"Which guess?"
"Speculations about the relationship between Xie Wei and that person." Gao Changfeng spread his hands.
Zong Qing was stunned when he heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he stammered: "This is just possible. I was just guessing before, uh, not so accurate, right?"
"It's hard to tell with your crow's mouth." Gao Changfeng smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It's okay if it doesn't matter. If it really does matter, that person is probably already on his way here with a knife... You know that person's temper. He
I don’t care about negotiations or hostage casualties..."
"Holy shit! Make second-hand preparations first. Lao Gao, you personally select people to lead the team. Once you find out about that person's whereabouts, you can directly attack the lobby on the first floor... What the hell is this! You were threatened by Guan Wuhao first, and then you turned around and were threatened by Guan Wuhao.
That threat is so powerful that it’s impossible to do this job..."
