Chapter 122 - Before the Third Drill!
“We don’t need to hide this time, because our goal is to escape from the city after the robbery. So, the more frequent and brazen the activities these days, the easier it will be for us to escape.”
“So, in these few days, we’ll act boldly.” Jon said with a smile.
Escape and hiding were two different concepts, so this time, there was no need to do the same as last time.
“Since boss has said so, then I won’t stand on ceremony.” Will Smith said with a smile.
Then, Brown turned on the navigation and followed the navigation to the hotel.
Las Vegas hotel. A global chain five-star hotel.
The car drove here, and a few people got out of the car with black backpacks.
They went to the front desk.
Jon booked five suites directly.
Each room was 8,888 dollars. They stayed for six nights and spent more than 200,000 dollars.
This money, of course, was nothing to Jon.
After all, there was the income from the live broadcast of the previous drill, plus the system’s reward.
Seeing Jon get a room and hearing the terrifying price, the four of them widened their eyes.
The cost of staying in a hotel for a few days was close to $300,000.
This was almost their annual salary.
They had once suspected that Jon had really robbed a bank.
The room was on a very high floor.
In the room, one could overlook the entire city.
So, Jon had his own reasons for booking such a room.
He could see the downtown area.
This was somewhat helpful when Jon was making plans.
After entering the room, he began to use the hotel’s computer to look up a map of downtown Florida.
Although he couldn’t go to the bank that Raymond had appointed, Jon still had to look up the surrounding environment and buildings on the map.
At eight o’clock in the evening.
Venus came over and asked Jon to come downstairs for dinner.
He stood up from the computer, stretched his muscles, and walked out of the room.
After dinner, they played for a while.
Before they went back to their rooms to rest, Jon told everyone to get up at seven tomorrow and meet at the hotel reception at 7:30 am.
After all, they were not familiar with the Florida city.
From tomorrow on, they would start to spin around the city and understand everything about the city.
The difficulty of the drill had increased, so the robbers had to be familiar with the city.
They had to make a careful plan.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to win the drill.
The next day.
At 7:30 in the morning, when Jon arrived at the hotel lobby, Will Smith and the other three were already waiting there.
After all, the four of them were the elites of the police force and had received special training.
Since Jon had asked them to meet at the front desk at 7:30, they would not be late.
Today, Venus Alice had resumed her previous outfit.
She wore sports shoes with jeans and shorts, and her pair of white long legs were particularly eye-catching.
She was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt with her blonde hair tied up and light makeup on her face.
When Jon saw this, he could not help but take a second look.
Venus had been paying attention to Jon, so she naturally noticed Jon’s gaze.
She could not help but feel a sense of pride.
“Let’s go.”
Jon gave the order, and the five of them left the hotel, got into their cars, and drove away.
Their goal today was to drive around the city.
They would now drive around the entire city a few times.
Of course, they weren’t just driving around. Every place they passed, Jon would mark on the map he bought where there were cameras and which road had the highest traffic.
They also predicted which places the police would set up obstacles that wouldn’t affect the traffic too much to find the perfect escape route.
Of course, they had to walk the left and right routes a few times.
The next day, Jon still let brown drive around the city, but this time it was offline as he had organized it.
The third day, Jon took four people to buy some things that might be useful.
He also bought a used car and parked it in an abandoned factory on the escape route that Jon had planned.
The fourth day, Jon and the others went to the practice bank to observe.
On the fifth day, Jon laid out a plan.
On the sixth day, Jon outlined the plan to the four of them.
Also, he thought about the problems that he might encounter in each step, wrote them down one by one, and made corresponding countermeasures, constantly perfecting the plan.
On the seventh day, Jon didn’t get up until nine o’clock today.
Once the drill started, he didn’t know when he would get a good night’s sleep again.
Whatever. He needed a good rest.
Noon.
Jon brought a few people to check out at the front desk.
They left the hotel.
Each of them was carrying a black backpack.
They went to the parking lot.
They put all their guns and ammunition in the car and drove to the bank of the joint drill.
At Jon’s request.
The four of them put on their caps and sunglasses.
After all, they had gained some recognition from the last drill.
Although they couldn’t compete with Jon, they were still easy to be recognized.
So, they needed to dress up.
They drove across the street from the bank.
Jon told Brown to park the car here.
He didn’t do it directly.
Jon looked up at the weather.
It wasn’t a good day.
There were dark clouds and no sunlight at all.
Jon had been looking at the weather forecast for this period of time before he made his plan.
Starting today, there would be four to five days of torrential rain in Florida.
This rain was extremely beneficial to Jon.
To make a perfect plan, one had to take into account the right time, place, and people.
Therefore, this heavy rain was naturally part of Jon’s plan.
And now, he was waiting for the heavy rain to fall.
Of course, as a qualified robber, there must be more than one plan.
If the rain didn’t fall, Jon also had a Plan B.
But, relatively speaking, Plan B wasn’t as perfect as the main plan.
Jon looked at his watch. It was two o’clock in the afternoon.
Raymond had said that they could start after one o’clock.
However, all the police officers did not know about this time except Raymond.
Therefore, if Jon did not start now, he did not have to worry about the police coming.
The police officers naturally knew that the drill would start today.
However, according to the rules of the drill, Raymond would not tell the police officers about the bank that involved in the drill and the time when the robbers would start.
Therefore, the officers would only be called out.
Jon had plenty of time to wait.
And he looked extremely calm.
In contrast, the other four were a little nervous.
Although, this was not their first time acting as robbers.
However, the last time they were acting as robbers on their own territory, they were not nervous.
But this time the situation was a little different.
Florida, they were unfamiliar with this place. They weren’t sure if they could win in the end.
At this moment.
“Boom!”
