Chapter 60 - Gold Robbery, Four Teammates
“You’re here, Jon. Please have a seat.”
The commissioner seemed to be in a good mood, and his attitude was very passionate.
“You’re so eager for me to come. After the drill, don’t regret it.”
Jon put his backpack aside, then sat down on the sofa and said with a smile.
The commissioner laughed. “If you can make me regret it, that would be the best thing.”
Looking at the commissioner in front of him, Jon could not help but think of the director of the FBI. He had said the same thing.
Before the first act, Jon had also said the same thing to the director that he could not regret about the decision of choosing him.
The director’s answer at that time was the same. Regret at least proved that his decision was right.
The director and the commissioner.
Although the two had different official positions, they were the same type of people.
They were people who took things very seriously.
Such people were actually very worthy of respect.
“What do you want to drink? Latte or coffee, Jon?”
The commissioner asked.
Jon did not stand on ceremony and said, “Coffee. No sugar.”
The commissioner made two cups of coffee and said, “Then let’s not talk nonsense from now on.”
“The last drill was actually not too difficult. In order to increase the difficulty, this time, your goal is not cash.”
“Not cash?”
Jon frowned slightly. “Then, it’s gold?”
The commissioner was somewhat surprised by Jon’s reaction. As expected of a FBI agent, Jon’s thinking was indeed fast.
The commissioner nodded. “That’s right, it’s gold. We stored 100 kilograms of gold bars in the bank’s safe this time, and your goal is to rob this batch of gold bars.”
“The difficulty is much higher than cash. What do you think?”
The commissioner arranged it this way because, first of all, during Jon’s last drill, he had robbed banknotes twice.
If it were still banknotes this time again, there would be nothing new. Moreover, Jon would definitely be very good at robbing banknotes.
Secondly, banknotes were traceable, so it was not easy to spend them after they were obtained. On the other hand, the gold could be melted and then recast, who could find out its origin?
Therefore, many real-life robbers were more willing to rob gold.
And this was the thing that had taken account from the actual robbery.
“I have no problem.”
Jon nodded and replied.
Regarding the difficulty of the drill, he obviously felt that the higher the better.
The higher the difficulty, the more interesting it would be to confront the police, and the more likely it would be to get the information he wanted to investigate.
Moreover, he could also get a higher score from the system, which would give him a higher reward.
Killing two birds with one stone.
“Very good.”
The commissioner smiled.
At this moment, there was a knock on the office door.
“Come in.”, the commissioner said.
The door was opened, and four people in police uniforms walked in.
Three men and one woman were the teammates that Jon had chosen.
He had seen their photos on the information before, so he recognized them at a glance.
“Let me introduce to you. This is Jon, the famous actor who plays the role of the robber in the drill on the internet.”
After the four people came in, the commissioner said slowly, “I told you a few days ago that our police department will prepare a drill next, and the four of you will play the role of the robber with him.”
As they spoke, Jon stood up and observed the four of them.
“Nice to meet you, Jon.”
After the commissioner’s introduction, the four of them shook hands with Jon and introduced themselves.
“Hello.”, Jon replied with a smile.
After greeting them.
“Next, I want to say something first.”
Jon spoke slowly. Although he was still smiling, his tone was no longer as easy-going as before.
Instead, there was a hint of toughness in his tone. “No matter what group it is, there has to be a backbone. The same goes for the robber group. This way, there will be no conflict at the crucial moment
“And this backbone will be taken up by me. In this drill, your task is to listen to my orders and strictly carry out my plan.”
As soon as he said this, the four of them were stunned.
“Sir, you mean that in this drill, you are the boss, and we all have to listen to you?”
“But… Why?”
“Because you escaped from the police during the last drill and gained a lot of fame?”
A middle-aged man with a strong figure and a bit of a ruffian looked at Jon.
He was obviously not convinced.
In his opinion, Jon was a little young.
How could he be their leader at such a young age?
Moreover, even though Jon had performed well in the last drill, especially the final robbery of the Blue Bank, they were also a little surprised by his methods.
However, they still thought that the police had performed too poorly in the drill.
The escape process, which was stunning in the eyes of the world, was also somewhat flawed in the eyes of these elites.
A few of the elites from the Pennsylvania department thought after repeated deduction.
If they were the pursuers of the drill, they would have had at least three chances to capture Jon before he robbed.
They would not have given Jon the chance to rob Blue Bank.
“You need your brain to rob a bank.”
“You, Will Smith, have been a policeman for more than ten years. You have indeed caught many criminals, but as for your brain…”
As Jon spoke, a hint of contempt appeared in his eyes.
These contemptuous looks.
It made Will Smith frown, his expression somewhat angry.
Without waiting for him to speak, Jon continued, “In fact, I can still handle this drill by myself. As for your existence, all you need to do is listen to the instructions.”
Jon raised his forehead slightly.
He looked unusually arrogant.
The commissioner had already seen through Jon’s intentions.
When Jon saw these four people, he made it clear that he was going to be the leader of the team.
Then, he provoked and belittled those who did not submit to him.
In the end, he even put on an arrogant posture.
The reason was that Jon knew from the beginning that these four people would definitely not submit to him.
Even if some people did not show it, they did not take Jon seriously in their hearts.
After all, these were all elite members of the police force. Each of them could lead a team.
And now…
A young man had appeared and said that he wanted to lead them. How could they accept this?
Even if there were orders from the police force, it was still not enough.
And during the drill, when there were differences in opinions or choices, if Jon could not make these people obey, it would be very easy for things to go wrong.
Therefore, Jon provoked, belittled, and acted arrogantly from the beginning.
He wanted to completely stir up the dissatisfaction in their hearts and force them to let it all out.
Then, he would suppress it.
Only then would they be convinced and easier to manage.
They were indeed intelligent people.
However, it was up to Jon to suppress the four of them.
