Chapter 1165 Negotiation
Yes, the real reason why Hans felt a chill on his back was that Sir Zhang glanced at him outside the window when he was observing whether the vault was open.
For the convenience of being able to snatch the bearer bonds from Hans and others in time, Zhang Pin chose to separate from John when he proposed to go into the elevator shaft to observe the situation.
After they separated, he went all the way up, directly to the 30th floor.
After observing for a while and confirming that all the hostages were safe, he was ready to continue going up.
However, since Hans and others knew that there was still something missing in the building, they arranged gunmen to guard the stairs from the 30th floor to the 31st floor.
He is just a gunman guarding the goal. For Sir Zhang, if he is willing, he can even kill the opponent without anyone noticing.
But in order not to alert others, he did not choose to do this.
However, Sir Zhang is also worried that he will not be able to snatch the bonds in time when the vault is opened.
After all, even the bond information of 640 million is actually not much.
If the other party deliberately hides such a small piece of information, it will be difficult to find it.
So he prepared to go to the scene to supervise the other party.
It seems that the police searchlights inspired him.
Originally, he was still thinking about whether to sneak up directly while the gunman guarding the stairs wasn't paying attention.
But after the searchlight illuminated the glass, he discovered that there was actually a better way to monitor the progress of the other party in opening the vault password in real time.
This method is none other than what Sir Zhang is doing now, which is to climb directly to the 32nd floor through the glass of the building.
Of course, such a method is naturally fanciful to ordinary people.
But for Sir Zhang, it is an action that is completely achievable.
Sir Zhang himself has a strong ability to take action. After confirming that the plan was feasible, he immediately started to implement it.
Facts have proved that his decision was correct.
Because after climbing to the 32nd floor, Sir Zhang heard the other party's plan.
"I actually want to use the power of the Investigation Bureau to open the password. It must not be that there is a spy in the Investigation Bureau. After all, it is impossible for people in the Investigation Bureau to have the password to the Zhongtong Group's vault. That is, some actions of the Investigation Bureau may affect the password.
, could it be the power system.”
Sir Zhang just used his brain carefully and quickly guessed what method the other party would probably use to crack the password.
You know, Sir Zhang is a registered consultant of the Investigation Bureau and receives a salary from the Investigation Bureau every week, so he naturally understands some of the Investigation Bureau's action plans.
In fact, not only the Bureau of Investigation, but also anti-terrorism operations all over the world, especially in cities like Luojishan, use these three tools when executing them.
The first move is definitely to cut off water and electricity, and cut off all external support for the building.
This trick is actually very good, especially at night. For most people who are accustomed to light, the lack of light will definitely have a big impact on themselves.
But if this solution is easy to use, it must be easy to use. If it is used more, problems will inevitably arise.
For example, this time, Zhang Pin probably guessed Hans' plan.
For a high-rise building like the Zhongfu Group Building, it is naturally impossible to be as casual about the use of electricity as for ordinary buildings.
Not to mention anything else, with a floor height of more than 40 floors, it is very inconvenient to go up and down without an elevator.
Not to mention that going up and down stairs is only the most basic aspect of electricity.
So under normal circumstances, the building will have its own independent backup power system.
The purpose of the power supply system is to prevent the building from running out of power under special circumstances.
And with the power system, and theoretically the power system will not fail at any time, so many security measures in the building naturally rely on the power system.
For example, take the vault where Hans and others are cracking the code.
Among the seven secrets, except the mechanical lock.
Whether it's voice, fingerprint or the simplest input password lock.
Or a magnetic combination lock that sounds high-end and very complicated even for experts like Theo to crack.
No matter what the form of expression is, in fact, it is ultimately supported by the power system.
Of course, although the systems of these combination locks are the same, apart from the different presentation forms, the logic behind them and the defensive measures are also different.
Such as voice code locks and fingerprint code locks, without power support, will not directly fail, but will cause the originally locked things to not be opened normally.
It is precisely because of this that Hans brought Theo to deal with these combination locks.
The magnetic code is different.
If this kind of password lock does not have a password, other methods will also be impossible to work.
But the only problem with magnetic locks is that they must rely on the support of electricity, and without the support of electricity, the combination lock will directly fail.
Of course, under normal circumstances, even if a fire or other crisis occurs in the building, this combination lock is absolutely safe because of the independent backup power system.
But now it's obviously not normal.
Because there are terrorists in the building, if the Investigation Bureau takes over, it will definitely follow the normal plan and the other party will definitely cut off the building's power system as soon as possible.
The power system that will be cut off at that time will naturally include the building's original self-supplied backup power system.
Without the support of the power system, the last magnetic code of the treasury, which was previously regarded as impregnable, will naturally become a joke.
Sir Zhang understood the logic, but he was not in a hurry to contact the police or the Bureau of Investigation Warren.
In addition to his interest in the bonds in the vault, it was also because Sir Zhang was more certain that the behavior of Hans and others was 100% weird.
After all, for Sir Zhang, the reason why he knows what the investigation bureau's action plan is when facing terrorists.
Firstly, because he is a senior police officer in Hong Kong Island, so he knows very well how the Hong Kong Island Police Force teaches police officers how to deal with terrorists.
In addition, he is a consultant to the Bureau of Investigation, so he has very clear information about the Bureau of Investigation.
But you must know that Hans and others are terrorists, and logically speaking, the other party should not know this information at all.
However, the intelligence capabilities displayed by Hans and others after entering the Zhongfu Group Building can be said to have nothing to do with terrorists.
Even now, if Hans came forward and said that he was from the Investigation Bureau, Zhang Pin would not be surprised at all.
In this case, Zhang Sir was worried that if he stood up and stopped the opponent's plan at this time, even if he killed Hans directly, there would be no guarantee that there would be someone behind the opponent's back.
He had just reached a compromise with Langley and changed the original hostile relationship into a cooperative relationship, but he didn't want to turn around and offend an unknown big boss.
Although Sir Zhang is very confident in his own strength, he can only be a thief for a thousand days, so how can he guard against thieves for a thousand days?
It was with this thought that Sir Zhang simply chose to remain silent.
Just as Sir Zhang was hiding outside the window waiting for Hans and others to open the vault, something new happened downstairs.
boom--
As soon as the armor-piercing bullet entered the soul, the originally menacing armored vehicle was directly hit by the armor-piercing bullet before it reached the downstairs of the Zhongfu Group Building.
"Damn it!"
"Gosh!"
The scene suddenly became chaotic. Apparently, neither the police nor ordinary citizens had thought that the terrorists inside the building had such a thing.
Boom boom——
While the onlookers were stunned, two more armor-piercing bullets were fired directly at the armored vehicle.
Soon, the armored vehicle burst into flames.
"Wilson, report the situation, do you have anything?"
Under the light of three armor-piercing bullets, the police chief's face turned pale. He held the walkie-talkie tremblingly and asked about the conditions of the men in the armored vehicle.
Although the armored vehicle was not penetrated by the armor-piercing projectiles at this time, three armor-piercing projectiles actually landed on top of the vehicle, and the shock wave generated by the explosion was naturally fully borne by the armored vehicle.
The car suffered such a huge impact, and the police officers inside were just mortal bodies. Although the police chief was still calling, there was no hope that they would survive.
In fact, the reason why he called now was more to complete the necessary procedures.
"This is Channel 4, I'm Charlie, I'm still outside the building, but we have the latest information about the identity of the terrorists inside the building."
While the police were in chaos outside, reporters had the latest news.
