Billy Osim, vice president of DeWitt Investments, now he regrets it very much, really regrets rejecting the suggestion that LAPD sent someone to protect them.
"You guys are illegal!" Osim felt that he could not be too weak, otherwise he would not have an advantage in negotiations. This is his experience summed up over the years.
However, his cleverness was obviously used in the wrong place. The robber stretched out his hands and patted him twice without saying a word. Two burly men with masks came in outside the door and dragged his secretary out directly.
The slim secretary with long chestnut hair seemed to know what she would encounter, almost burst into tears and was trembling all over her body, "No, don't kill me."
"Mr. Osim, I don't have time to play games with you, but I'll prove my sincerity." As soon as the robber finished speaking, two gunshots came from outside the office.
Osim's body shook twice with the gunshots, and then swallowed hard. These guys are really playing.
"Let me get what I want as soon as possible. It is your only choice now." The robber pulled him out of the chair and pushed him out of the office. Osim happened to see the body of the secretary lying outside.
On the 16th floor of the DeWit Investment Company Building, this one belongs to the middle of the building, is the location of the company's vault. Taking a special elevator through safety doors, Osim and several robbers stood in front of the huge vault.
Osim still hopes to fight for it again, "Sir, without the president's palm lines and iris recognition, there is no way to open the vault."
The robber stood in front of him, "Mr. Osim, stop being clever with me anymore. Your president is on vacation, and these 400 million bearer bonds will be shipped to the Federal Reserve before going to work tomorrow."
After hearing the other party's words, the cold sweat on his face remained. The person in front of him knew so clearly that it was obvious that there was an insider in the company.
Since he was going to be transported away, of course what he said just now was not true.
The robber took out another thing, and Osim watched the video of his wife and children in his backyard, and his psychological defense finally collapsed.
Originally, the opening of the vault really required the president's biometrics, but because he was going on vacation, these bonds really needed to be shipped to the bank, so the opening password was made an exception and handed over to the vice president.
Enter the password, then perform biometric identification, and the vault is successfully opened.
"New SAL is very grateful for your cooperation, Mr. Osim." The leading robber patted his shoulder.
The two men behind him walked to the door, turned their hands to open the heavy door of the vault. The space inside was not too large. There was a small amount of cash and precious metals stored here. The 400 million bonds were neatly placed on the shelves, and there were more important company documents inside.
Osim watched with fear as these people moved all the bonds out and packed them, and then moved cash and gold bars. After doing this, the leading man took out a bucket of gasoline and poured it into the vault. He took out a lighter and lit the fire without saying a word, burning the rest.
These successful robbers began to evacuate quickly, leaving only Osim looking at the smoke-filled vault, and the fire alarm sounded.
Four cars in the underground parking lot of the building quickly drove out. The robbers turned off their headlights and drove out of the parking lot as if they had previewed countless times.
In the car, the leading robber pulled his mask open. This was also a black man, but compared to the one in the center of Staples, there was still hair on his head.
"Yes, we succeeded." The guy waved his hand fiercely. They had been preparing for today's plan for a long time. Of course, the biggest contributor was the woman sitting next to him.
The secretary lady who was supposed to be dead suddenly sat in the seat next to her.
If it weren't for her, how could these robbers know that there was a batch of bearer bonds here? It was even more impossible to know that the president of DeWitt Investment gave Osim the authority of the vault.
"Paxter, Parkster, you are so awesome." The guy spoke like he was singing RAP. The secretary-general sitting on the side hugged the black man beside him and presented his lips.
Just as the two of them were entangled and something was about to happen, a phone call in the black man's pocket vibrated.
The black man took out the phone with an unsatisfactory look at the number on it and pondered for a while, and finally picked it up, "Derwin, our actions here have failed."
The sound from the phone was the robber leader who ran away from Staples Center.
The black man named Devin pondered for a moment. He thought that he could hold on for a while and make another big news. By then, the new SAL would not only obtain funds but also greatly expand its influence.
However, these subtle details are far less important than the 400 million bonds and cash in the car.
"Are there any policemen following you?" Devin asked. The people in the stadium were all fanatics of the new SAL. In his plan, he should have activated the bomb and died at the last moment. However, he did not expect that he would actually run out of the police's siege.
This was something Devin had never expected before. Although the other party is useless now, he must not let this guy wander outside.
"No, I escaped from the sewer." The person opposite replied.
"Very good, now you go to the parking lot on 20th Street right away, I will have someone pick you up there, don't worry, I am Marshal Xinko, and I won't leave any companions behind." The black man named Devin said in a passionate voice on the phone.
As expected, as Xu Chuan guessed, this Xin Kou really has someone else.
The person opposite quickly agreed and was so moved that he was almost crying.
"Do you really want to pick him up?" The female secretary sitting next to Devin sat directly on the other party's thigh after the other party hung up the phone.
...
The black man who pretended to be Xin Kou hung up the phone. He actually didn't trust the guy opposite him very much, but he had no other choice but to gamble like this.
The man took off his shirt and bandaged himself the wound with the first aid kit he had stolen from a street convenience store. He was very lucky that Xu Chuan's knife did not cut off the artery on his hand, but although the injury was also very serious, the whole hand was completely unable to move, and it seemed that the tendon on his hand was broken.
He tied the wound firmly with gauze and gasped heavily. After swallowing a few painkillers, he put on a stolen top and looked at the direction and walked towards 20th Street. However, he did not notice that someone had been following him.
Curtis rubbed his shoes hard on the side of the road. He followed the target to the sewer, and there were really everything there.
He previously followed Xu Chuan's request and solved the robber in the information center before the police attacked him. Then Burkhoff remotely controlled the lighting system on the scene to create chaos.
Their purpose is actually to let the leader escape. Although they don’t know if this guy has a way to evacuate, according to their boss, it’s not a loss to try it anyway.
Umbrella's people had long known the character of their boss. He would never miss this opportunity to be blatant and slap in the blatant way.
At present, Umbrella's possession is probably even more complete than the ones in the police's hands. After the successful raid of SWAT, Berkhoff and his technicians had confirmed the identities of the kidnappers on the scene.
In addition, the backdoor program installed by Haye-in-Lipd command system has successfully found out all the actions of these people in recent times. In addition, facial recognition, they have analyzed almost everything in detail who they have come into contact with and where they have been to.
After doing this, Berkhoff asked all the technicians to withdraw from the servers of Staples Center and cleaned all the traces without leaving any traces of someone getting in.
Of course, Xu Chuan hadn't seen these things yet, because he was being pressed into the ambulance. Xuela showed unusual stubbornness in this matter, and Xu Chuan couldn't tell her, "I'm fine, I'm in a hurry to go and eat black now."
"I'm really fine. Just apply a band-aid patch to disinfect such minor injuries." Xu Chuan was so angry that he couldn't cry, but the bounce scratch was not a real gunshot wound. Generally speaking, he wouldn't care.
However, no one heard the accusation he received, and the medical staff directly pushed the ambulance on a stretcher.
Damn, is there any law of nature and any law of kings?
Xuela sat beside him, looking like she was about to cry, and Xu Chuan looked dark, "I'm not dead yet!"
The flash outside the ambulance almost blinded his titanium dog eyes.
The media who had been guarding outside surrounded the ambulance. After the hostages were inspected by the explosion-discharging personnel and identified by the police, they were all released.
These media were very interested in knowing what happened in the last minute of the power outage. The police had not responded yet, so they could only ask the hostages at the scene.
"I don't know what happened at that time, but before the lights went out, Bell walked over to question the robbers who wanted to save the Washington Councillor. After that, it seemed that he had robbed the detonator from the robbers and he saved us all."
This is the narrative of one of the kidnapped players, and it is obvious that this guy has a big heart that can see so many details in such a chaotic situation.
Others didn't notice this, but this did not delay the media from reporting it out.
In addition, Xu Chuan was really shot, which is definitely a HERO in America, the favorite and popular plot of the American people.
Not to mention that there are Twitter that is fueling the fire. What's wrong with my big boss? Is it so useless for overtime pay?
Since some people are praised, of course some are trampled. Those companies that firmly disagree with donations have certainly become the targets of everyone's venting.
The websites of several companies were almost paralyzed, and then news came that DeWitt Investment had robbed 400 million bonds and 500 million cash.
Alas, why are the numbers a little unmatched?
"Has that escaped guy found it?" Hongdu carried HK416D behind his back, holding the detonator whose battery had been removed.
Deakin shook his head beside him, "I've asked, the guy fled into the sewer, and the command center has sent someone to chase him, but there is little hope."
This guy must have known this escape path in advance, otherwise how could he be able to accurately find this sewer in such a chaotic situation?
Moreover, the environment below is complicated, and the police dog also loses its function.
Hongdu was in a bad mood. In his opinion, this task was no different from failure.
"Hey, this has been very successful, only two hostages were injured, and we all know that it is difficult to ensure no casualties in that situation." Deakin, as the deputy captain of Team D, comforted him.
As the two were talking, Robert Hicks' anxious voice came from the intercom, "Hongdu, there was a robbery in Dewet Building, you can set out to the scene immediately."
Hongdu's face was stunned and answered, "Received", and then he invited all the members of Team D to quickly get on the explosion-proof car.
"DWIT, is there a DeWIT investment consultant in the hostage?" Hongdu sat in the back car and looked at Deakin.
"Yes, what did you think of?"
"Fuck!" Hongdu turned on the monitor in the car and found the video in the previous sports center, which was the scene of Xu Chuan talking to the black man before the power was cut off.
"What do you say for the sake of the bottom and to deal with injustice? You should have a group of people making other plans, is it a robbery of a bank or a company?"
Hongdu paused the screen, "Why did this guy see it before?"
He and Deakin both realized that the robbery at Staples Center was a cover-up, and that the goal of these people was money.
On the 16th floor of DeWit Building, there had just been a fire. The firefighters arrived very promptly. In addition, the firefighting facilities in the building were intact, so the fire was quickly controlled.
However, the vault was burned beyond recognition, and all the things inside turned into black coke. After being washed by the firefighter's faucet, there was no way to see what was burned.
Osim sat in his office in a daze, and the police officers from the Central District Branch were taking notes for him.
"It's all over, it's all over..." The vice president didn't know if he was scared and kept repeating this sentence.
"Mr. Osim, do you remember how many of them have?" The police officers from the Central District Branch looked at Osim with great headaches. They have not received any clues so far, and the surveillance equipment has been destroyed.
Of course, they also asked other employees, but these people were tied up by the robbers and put on their heads and locked in an office. They didn't know what was going on outside.
When the investigation was not progressing, Hongdu and the others arrived, "Hey, man, how are you?"
Both parties were acquaintances and greeted each other. The police officer and Hong Du shook their heads, "Nothing, no one died, no one was injured, but the vault was burned. The vice president said that the loss of 400 million US dollars of bearer bonds and nearly 500 million yuan of cash and gold bricks."
After saying that, the police officer shrugged directly. This number is so exaggerated.
"It seems that there are still a lot of things happening today."
"Yes, but it's a blessing that no one died."
Chapter completed!
