Chapter 65 - The Robbery Begins!
After the netizens entered the live stream, they started discussing on the comment section.
After all, after the first drill, the audience had high expectations for Jon’s performance this time.
How would this highly intelligent robber perform in this larger drill?
This was something that the audience was very curious about.
As they discussed crazily, the police officers were all on standby at the police station.
The live broadcast hadn’t even started yet, but it had already received so much attention.
This also made the hearts of the police officers tense up.
No one thought that this drill was a child’s play and could just casually deal with it.
After all, there were so many people watching all over the country.
If they didn’t perform well, they would damage the reputation of the Pennsylvania State Police Department.
And they would lose face in front of the entire United States.
No one wanted to lose face.
Therefore, in the eyes of all the police officers, this was not a drill but a real battle.
And now, the person that was going to have a serious headache was none other than the police leader of this operation.
The leader had seen the live broadcast of the last drill and all kinds of information. He found that Jon was very difficult to deal with.
And if he, the leader, made any mistakes in this drill, it would be a real headache.
Meanwhile, the bank was getting ready.
This was a main bank. It was not small, but there were not many customers doing business today.
It was because the higher-ups knew that the bank was going to face a robbery today.
Hence, they had already restricted the number of customers from this morning.
To ensure that there weren’t too many customers in the bank, it would be easier to disperse them when the drill started.
In the afternoon a two o’clock sharp, four people came to the bank.
“Dear sir and madam, our bank is no longer handling business today due to maintenance. You can come back tomorrow.”
The security guard saw the four people walking over and quickly stopped them.
As the commissioner did not allow the people who knew about it to reveal that they were going to conduct a drill in this bank, the informed bank executives did not spread the news of the drill.
And the security guard naturally thought that there were so few customers today because of the regular maintenance, just as the higher-ups had informed them.
“Tomorrow? No, no, no, we planned to enter the bank today. Wouldn’t we be delayed tomorrow?”
The man at the front of the four said.
Their footsteps did not stop.
These four people were obviously the robbery team.
Will Smith.
Brown Williams.
Leon Evans.
Venus Alice.
As the core of this drill, Jon did not come with them.
He still had other things to do.
Seeing that the four people did not stop, the security guard became alert.
A hand reached behind his back and touched the baton.
“I’ll say it again. The bank has limited services due to the maintenance. We are going to close soon. You can come over tomorrow to take care of your business.”
The security guard said in a serious tone.
As a professional security guard, this person was naturally tall and burly. Moreover, he had been a soldier for a few years.
He had a pretty neat combat skill.
Therefore, even if he was facing four people, he was only a little bit tensed up and did not scare at all.
“Sir, what if I have to go in?”
Will Smith raised his head and looked at the security guard.
At this moment, he had his hair combed back and looked shiny. He had his sunglasses on and was holding a cigar in his mouth.
From the looks of it…
He was completely dressed like a gangster.
In addition to the ruffian smile on his lips, this made the security guard even more convinced that Will Smith was not a good person.
He pulled out the baton behind him.
He held it tightly.
“If you insist on breaking in, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
“Is that so?”
The smile on Will Smith’s lips became even wider. Then.
His hand reached to his waist, took out a 92 pistol, and loaded it.
“Oh my god!”
The security guard s movements suddenly stopped.
Looking at the black muzzle of the gun, fine beads of cold sweat quickly appeared on his face. He did not dare to make any movements for a moment.
A thought flashed through his mind.
Robbers!
They wanted to rob a bank.
This security guard had worked in a bank for so long.
This was the first time he had encountered a bank robbery. He did not know what to do for a moment.
“Now, do as I say and chase all the customers out.”
Will Smith said with a cold face.
Under Jon’s influence, they also immersed themselves in the role of robbers.
Moreover, through these few days of preparation.
Whenever the four of them had time, they would ask Jon for advice on how to play a real robber.
Jon was not stingy and told them his experience.
After so long of deliberate training, the four of them now looked like real robbers.
“Yes… Sir.”
The security guard quickly agreed.
He ran into the bank and began to disperse the customers.
The four of them showed their guns at the bank’s entrance
This was Jon’s plan.
After all, no matter what, this was a drill. As robbers, they could not stop the bank staff or others from reporting the case.
Besides, the police were definitely on standby.
As soon as they got a report, they would be there.
Jon had carefully studied the distance from the police station to the bank, which was ten minutes away.
This was when there was no obstruction.
Pennsylvania was a big economy state, and this was the center of it. There were a lot of cars.
Even if we take the emergency response channel, it cannot be unimpeded.
So, the police needed at least another 15 minutes to arrive.
25 minutes time in total.
Too little time.
It was not enough to let the robbers get the gold and then leave.
In that case, it is better not to run, make a big show of it.
So, there is no need to hide anything.
They just had to rob the bank in daylight.
According to Jon’s plan, the four of them came to the bank, drove the customers out of the bank, and then took control of the bank staff.
He did not choose to take the customers and staff together as hostages.
Because there was no point in taking too many hostages.
But now, there were nine staffs in the bank, enough to be used as hostages.
Under the watchful eyes of four people, the security guards dispersed the customers.
But the process was not smooth, some customers did not know the truth and did not want to come out.
It was not easy to do business in the bank.
You had to pick a specific time.
You had to draw a number to line up.
Some people waited in line for a long time, when it was finally their turn, of course they refused to leave.
Will Smith, who was at the door, also noticed the situation.
He recalled what Jon had said when he arranged the operation. “At the beginning of the robbery, some unwitting customers are not easy to disperse. At this time, you need to shoot at the ceiling to intimidate them.”
