After fighting for five minutes, the police were unable to break into the front door of the bank, not because the front door was so strong, but because they did not want the front door to be blown open too quickly. They wanted to wait for progress at the back door first.
After fighting for five minutes, the detective team failed to climb over the backyard of the bank, not because the wall was too high, but because they did not want the attack in the backyard to be too smooth. They wanted to hope that the police would rush into the front door first.
This was not just 'two or three little cats and dogs'. Faced with a building full of desperate criminals who had no way to escape, and since the incompetent captain was unwilling to step out of the teahouse to supervise the battle, whoever rushed in first would be a fool. After five minutes of fierce fighting, the battle came to an awkward halt. Everyone was secretly cursing in their hearts that everyone was inhuman and as poisonous as snakes and scorpions, and that all the wine they had drunk in the past was in vain.
The inside and outside of the bank were quiet again, so quiet that it seemed unreal.
It is a good thing to have faith and it is also a good thing to have pursuits, especially in this time when there is no way to heaven and no door to the earth, people with faith can still pray, or think about the relationship between rebirth and eternal life; what about people who have pursuits... at least they still have something to do. It is natural for people to die for money and birds to die for food. The taste of wealth is like opium, which can even soothe the desperate mood.
Bang! Gunshot.
Luo Fugui half-curled behind the counter, his eyes passing through the mess of tables and chairs. The door of the office about ten meters behind the counter was open. The shopkeeper who had already handed over the keys had just collapsed in the office with his hands on his chest. He couldn't believe that he, who had already revealed the location of the gold vault and handed over the keys, would be shot in the chest and die with his eyes open.
"Someone wants you dead, don't blame me!" The masked leader put down his smoking gun and said casually.
The gold vault, also known as the silver vault, is the vault. The bank's gold storage method follows the old system, with gold bars and gold bricks all placed in the vault. The vault is dug in the shopkeeper's office behind the counter, with the entrance under the floor. Every deposit and withdrawal is handled by the shopkeeper himself.
A large piece of specially made thick floor was lifted up by the masked robbers, revealing a rectangular cellar entrance under the floor, which was more than one meter wide and two meters long. It led vertically downward to the cellar and was about three meters deep. Symmetrical steps were dug on both sides of the cellar wall to facilitate going up and down. Although the light at the bottom of the cellar was dim, one could still make out a heavy metal box. This is basically the case with the gold cellars of old-style money houses.
Several masked men panted heavily and gathered around the entrance of the cellar, staring down. One of the masked men stepped on the walls on both sides with his arms and legs spread out and carefully went down to the bottom. He opened the box and locked it tremblingly, then struggled to lift the heavy lid... Golden light burst out, and in the large metal box, there was neatly stacked most of the small gold bars of one or two taels, commonly known as "small yellow croakers", about a thousand, about a thousand, about a thousand...
They were all dumbfounded, forgetting the hail of bullets just now, forgetting that they were in a desperate situation, and forgetting whether they still had time to live. They were so obsessed that they couldn't extricate themselves. In the end, the masked leader recovered first and pushed the people around him casually: "What the hell are you still standing there! Go and hand it up!" Then he withdrew his hand suddenly: "You... Hey? Hey hey? What the hell do you want to do? You fucking me..." He frantically searched for the handle of the gun at his waist.
It turned out that the person next to him was not the masked man, but the big and clumsy Zhu Bajie, who had appeared at the entrance of the cellar like a ghost at some point, sticking his big head out and staring down like all the masked men. His two eyeballs had already fallen out of the holes in the masks, and it seemed that sooner or later they would fall to the bottom of the cellar and break into eight pieces.
"Is it not okay for me to... broaden my horizons? Damn it, I... have no intention of snatching these junk, so why are you so anxious to look through my crotch?"
Luo Fugui answered like this, but then he swallowed a big mouthful of saliva, making a clear gurgling sound in his throat, and pretended to straighten his bear neck to act indifferent.
…
"Boss Hu, I... don't want to die."
Luo Fugui sat next to Hu Yi, stretched out his legs, and let his bear back rest completely on the back of the chair.
Hu Yi didn't say anything, just stared at the blue in his hand and continued to concentrate on the whirlpool of thinking. He heard what Luo Fugui said, but had no interest in responding.
Luo Fugui didn't seem to care that he didn't get any feedback from Hu Yi. He leaned his head back on the chair and looked at the ceiling: "I know what you're thinking... But I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about just now... So many small yellow croakers... So golden... I've never been so scared of death as I was just now, never."
Hu Yi had to think outside the box and look at the bear next to him. No one could say shameless words as naturally as he did. Is there any level of fear of death? Is there any level of fear of death
The bear seemed to sense Hu Yi's gaze turning towards him, so he sat up straight again, looked around with his toad eyes, and then lowered his voice and said, "I suddenly... had an idea... Maybe... it can make our breakout... smoother."
For Hu Yi, who was about to collapse in endless thinking, this sentence was like a shot in his mind, because this sentence was said by Luo Fugui, because this bear never wanted to die. People say that ignorant people are fearless, but this bear is the opposite, fearful and knowledgeable! But Hu Yi still didn't say anything.
“Those little yellow croakers… they’re so dazzling that I’m still dizzy… I’ve never seen so many…”
"… "
"Uh... yeah, let's not talk about that. What I mean is... we have to grab those gold bars!"
"Is that what you think?"
“Yeah.” The bear didn’t notice that the temperature around him was dropping. He instinctively agreed, only to find that something was wrong with the atmosphere. Hu Yi’s gaze was about to freeze him into ice. He lost his balance and slipped halfway out of the chair. He added hastily, “You… you wait a moment… listen to my explanation. Let me explain to you first…”
…
Jin Chunxiu was taken away from the conference room alone by a Zhu Bajie at gunpoint and brought to another room next door. The door was closed and the Zhu Bajie who was escorting her did not come in. There was only one person in the room, the cold and sinister dog in black. She didn't know his name was Hu Yi.
"Why, do you want me to have some fun with you?" A soft laugh.
"Are those robbers your men?"
"I'm curious, why did those piggies listen to you again?"
"Are you avoiding or admitting it?"
"Admit it! If he was mine, would I dig my own grave?"
"But you once said they were yours."
"Haha, I was just teasing you! Do you really believe it?"
"There are many owners in the room, and you are just one of them. It seems that you are not the biggest one. How much is your share? Ten percent? Twenty percent? With this trick, no matter how you calculate it, you will make a profit for sure."
"You're such a good talker! You want to kill me wrongly."
"I believe you can see that no one can get out alive, because this is no longer a problem with the Rangers, but a problem with the gold bars. However, I will still break out, but I need the gold bars. Considering that you are a heroine, I will use courtesy first and then force to make them hand over the gold bars."
She couldn't help but stare at Hu Yi for a long time. She finally started laughing again. It was no longer a frivolous laugh, but a scornful laugh: "I thought you were a real man, and your feelings were not much more valuable than mine!"
"Let me tell you clearly, with those gold bars, we can break out successfully. Without them, no one can break out. I am fighting for my life, not my wealth. I want to throw all those gold bars away."
"Throw it away?" Jin Chunxiu was stunned. Her IQ determined that she was stunned for a short time. She soon came to her senses and her expression became depressed. She no longer stared at Hu Yi, but looked at the blue sky outside the window. It was a long time before she spoke again.
"I'm sorry, I can't help you. It's true that I led those bastards here, but they are not my people and don't know me. I'm just waiting to get half of them. But things have come to this point. I believe that even if they can get out, they are unlikely to fulfill their promise." Followed by another chuckle: "Letting a wolf into the house will not only lose the wife but also the army. This is what I am talking about!"
Then she could still laugh, and continued to laugh easily.
…
Xiao Hongying swayed, taking steady steps as she crossed the corridor on the second floor while reloading the big-eyed pistol in her hand. When she reached the corner of the stairs going downstairs, she stopped, leaned against the wall and waited, waiting for the arrival of a new round of storm, listening attentively.
She asked to participate in the upcoming civil war for the gold medal, and Hu Yi did not refuse, because Hu Yi's trustworthy firepower... only two were left, Ma Liang and Xiao Hongying. As for Luo Fugui, the bear whose condition was up and down, he could not be trusted with confidence. The Zhu Bajie under Kan Jiu were also the same kind of people. A few of them had to be left to guard the front and back windows on the second floor to prevent the police and detective team outside from attacking the building in the chaos.
There is no eternal peace. Other children read this sentence in books, but Xiao Hongying understood that there is no eternal peace through the gun in her hand.
Hu Yi sat in the corner of the rest area on the first floor as usual, watching Ma Liang walk towards the starting position as if nothing had happened. The m1932 was already placed on the coffee table at hand, quietly waiting for the call to explode.
But the masked guys at the counter seemed to be more alert. They didn't find anything strange, but because they all felt sick after holding the small yellow croaker in their arms, they regarded all the gazes directed at them as threats, feeling extremely uneasy and wary of everything.
Everything was dead and dull. Now was a good time to explode. At least it might make him feel better. Hu Yi raised his right hand and reached for his gun.
"etc!"
Su Qing's voice suddenly sounded behind his ears at this moment. The voice was very small and soft, so soft that he could feel the breath on the back of his neck, which made him calm down instinctively.
"Wait a little longer, okay?"
"… "
"Don't force me to pressure you with orders!"
"… "
"Did you hear that?"
"No."
In fact, he just wanted to continue to enjoy the buzzing of mosquitoes so close to him...
