With a clang, the escort vehicle almost flew up. Not only were the escorts in the carriage jolted, but what was even worse was that some water bottles that had not been tightened in time were knocked over to the ground, and water flowed all over the carriage.
The captain of the escort team knocked on the carriage, opened a small opening, and said to the cab: "Stop a moment, the water has turned over. Why is the road so bumpy today?"
Kent is just a driver, he is not the captain, so most of the time he is the one who follows orders. Obviously the captain in the carriage did not want any explanation for the bumps. This was not the first time that the road was covered with stones, but this time the stones were denser and larger than before. The road conditions were indeed not very good. . According to the working rules of the Imperial Central Bank, the escort vehicle is absolutely not allowed to stop during the process of arriving at the destination after leaving the bank garage. It's just that the rules are like this, and not everyone will follow the rules.
Kent obediently slowed down the car and found a relatively quiet and stable area to pull over.
The first time he did the illegal operation, he was a little timid and panicked, but gradually he got used to it. He definitely needed to relieve himself or rest during the long journey. It was impossible to finish the two-day journey in a short time, and it was inevitable that he would have to stop several times along the way. , and over time became numb and careless.
The escort vehicle slowly stopped on the side of the road and opened the carriage from the inside out. The four escorts did not wear body armor at all times as required in the rules and regulations. They took off their heavy equipment and left in their underwear. ran out of the carriage. In seven years, no one has dared to rob the escort truck of the Imperial Central Bank, which also made them lazy. The weather was still a bit cold, so there was one person in the car who was responsible for cleaning up the water stains, while the other three got out of the car shivering, ran outside, took out the little brother and defecated happily against the grass on the roadside.
They were talking interesting things to each other, not noticing at all that there were people hiding in this wilderness who shouldn't have been here in the first place.
Kent started the escort vehicle the first second the gunfire rang out. He did violate the escort rules in many places, but that didn't mean he forgot all the requirements in the manual. The first priority in the escort work manual is to ensure the safety of money and valuables transported in the carriage. In emergencies, the vehicle must not stop or slow down under any circumstances. When the car started, the guy who was cleaning the water stains in the car immediately closed the car door. As for the consequences for the people outside, he didn't consider it.
If he can save the money and valuables in this car in the face of the robbers' brutality, he will definitely be rewarded when he returns, and the families of those guys outside will also receive a large pension. Besides, when the gunfire rang out, those colleagues who were not even wearing body armor must have been killed in the line of duty. There was no need for him to waste the precious time of closing the carriage door for some dead people. Gunshots rang out one after another, and Kent was already sweating profusely. He put on his helmet and buttoned up his body armor while holding on to the steering wheel. The guy in the car did the same thing. He put on all the equipment in a panic and then looked nervously. Sitting in the carriage holding a rifle and shivering.
There was no way not to be afraid. The robbers who dared to rob the Imperial Central Bank would never leave anyone alive. The two people in the car knew this better than anyone else. As the largest bank in the empire, any behavior that is detrimental to the interests of the bank means going against the largest financial group in the empire and a challenge to the largest economy in the empire. Even the ruling party may not be able to resist the offensive from the central bank of the empire. . In order to ensure safety, the robbers will try their best to avoid accidental leaks of information. Silencing is undoubtedly the best choice. The only hope for the two people in the car now is to reach the next city smoothly and safely. When you get to the city, there will be not only the police, but also the gendarmerie, the garrison, and the bank's own security system.
Behind them, three colleagues who had been alive a moment ago fell heavily to the ground, and the frightened expressions on their faces were frozen in the moment they returned to the embrace of God. Ellis scratched his head and dragged these people into the grass three times and covered them with harvested dead grass.
In fact, he was not the only one guarding this road. No one knew where these people would get off, not even the lunatic in the prison. He said two possibilities. The first possibility is not long after leaving the city, because these people must strictly follow the time set by the bank every day, starting from the first glass of milk they drink in the morning, and it takes about an hour and a half after they leave the city. One and a half hours is enough for the body to analyze water and store excess impurities and excess water in the bladder. Coupled with the escort's subconscious need to excrete as little as possible during the escort, they may be able to do so in about two to two and a half hours. Next time car.
There is also a possibility that they had already defecated before being escorted, so the preparation location should be about four hours' drive away, probably close to noon. While they need to eat, they also need to solve these excretion problems. So there is only Ellis here, and everyone else is arranged on the road behind. It is indeed a bit risky for a person to stay here alone, but Du Lin believes that once an "accident" occurs, the driver and escort personnel in the escort vehicle will definitely think that they have been "ambushed". In addition, the road is not very wide, and it will take more time to turn around. and space, so they will rush forward at the first time, so there is only Ellis here.
The wilderness in winter was very cold. After Ellis glanced at the three corpses he had hidden, he drove his car from behind a hidden slope and chased them along the road. He does not need to deliberately dispose of those corpses. Coyotes and some scavengers and insects living in the wilderness will help him solve this trouble.
At this time, Kent had been driving for about ten minutes, about six or seven kilometers, from the scene of the incident. His heartbeat had not yet calmed down, and his hand holding the steering wheel was shaking violently. The transparent mask on the helmet was a little blurry under his breath, and he had to lift the mask. At this moment, a faint gunshot rang out, and the front windshield of the escort vehicle was filled with cracks in an instant.
The design of the escort vehicle obviously took into account many possible things. He pressed a button under the steering wheel, and the cracked glass shattered into several pieces with a crash. Following the gap at the bottom between the barbed wires on both sides, from the hood Slided out. Before he could clearly see the road ahead, two ignited homemade Molotov cocktails were thrown over. Inferior glass bottles are not as strong as those containing wine, and with the force of collision, they can almost break at a touch. The rain of flames that ignited instantly shot densely into the cab through the barbed wire, igniting the entire cab. Even with a body armor, there was nothing that could be done against such a dense rain of fire.
Kent howled and slapped the flames on his face and body. He turned on the safety lock switch with one hand, pushed open the car door and jumped out of the cab, rolling on the ground. The unmanned escort vehicle only advanced less than 20 meters on a road covered with large and small rocks before completely losing control. It rolled into a ditch on the side of the road, rolled twice and then fell to the ground. He also kept rolling in the wilderness to extinguish the flames on his body, but the cold winter could not fill the soil with moisture like other seasons and roll to put out the fire. Instead, some dry weeds were ignited, and the fire quickly spread. It reached a certain scale, and even the screams were suppressed.
It wasn't that Kent didn't want to scream, but when he opened his mouth, the flames seemed to penetrate his throat. He could only make some meaningless noises and slowly fell to the ground.
The flames and smoke pillars attracted the attention of Ellis, Dulin and Dufo. The two groups rushed to the scene one after another. After Dufo patted Savi on the head, a group of people gathered outside the escort vehicle. .
Du Lin knocked on the door of the carriage, and the dull voice silently told everyone how thick and strong the carriage was. When the car door knocked for the second time, a dull response came from the car.
"Who's out there?!"
The sound line has been somewhat distorted after passing through the layers of carriages, but this does not prevent people outside the carriage from clearly feeling the fear hidden in the trembling voice.
"You have two choices. Open the car, we will take away what belongs to us, and you will take away your precious life. The second option is that we will light a fire around the car and roast you before towing the car. Come on, I believe that as long as it is made by humans, there must be a way to open it. My patience is not very good, and I don’t have much time left for you to choose!”
Robbery of the Reichsbank's escort truck was just the first step in Dulin's revenge plan. He needed to get his money back. He deposited almost 70% of his funds in an account at the Imperial Central Bank, but after his accident, these treacherous bankers directly used Dulin to store "criminal funds" on the grounds that Dulin was "suspected of a crime." The account was immediately frozen. Well, that's no problem. The problem is that after he was released from prison, the Imperial Central Bank still did not unfreeze his account.
Maybe someone asked the bank to do this, or maybe the head of the bank in the Tener area wanted to embezzle the savings of nearly 100,000 yuan in the Dulin Bank account. This is definitely not a small amount of money, even for a bank leader, this is an astonishing amount. No matter what the other party's reasons were, in short, if they hacked Dulin's money, they must pay the price for it.
The escort in the carriage quickly made a decision between the possibility of death and the absolute possibility of being roasted. He opened the carriage and moved out in a kneeling position wearing only a pair of shorts with his hands raised to express his love. harmless.
Dover pulled him aside. Ellis and other members of the hometown association rushed in, took out the two boxes, threw them in the car and left quickly. Only Dulin and Dover were left in the wilderness. , Savi, and the escort who was shivering because of fear or cold.
"What should I do with you?" Dulin shrugged, "I am a man of my word. I said that if you open the carriage and come out on your own, I will let you go, but you should know that I do this It will obviously leave a legacy, don’t you think?”
The guy's legs softened and he knelt on the ground again. His upper and lower teeth kept hitting each other, "I swear, I will never say a word..."
Dulin pursed his lips and suddenly asked a question, "Are you familiar with the internal structure of the Tenel City Central Bank?"
