Chapter 15
The sheriff explained the current situation to the squad leader.
“Two policemen have been killed.”
“The robber destroyed the surveillance camera in the bank and covered all the windows. We have no idea what is going on in the bank.”
“This robber is extremely cunning and ruthless. He is extremely cautious.”
The sheriff made a simple and direct opening and explained the scene to the special force squad leader.
The special force squad leader nodded.
“Do you have the layout of the bank here?”
The special force squad leader asked again.
“Yes!”
The sheriff nodded. As soon as he finished speaking, a police officer standing behind him ran to the temporary command room and took out the blueprint.
The special force squad leader took the blueprint and looked at it carefully.
“By the way, how many waves of attacks have they launched so far?”
While looking at the blueprint, the special force squad leader asked the sheriff casually.
The sheriff was silent for a moment.
He still told him about the incident where a policeman disguised himself as a delivery man to send in bug and camera.
After hearing the whole story, the special force squad leader could not help but laugh.
“Hey, what do you mean?”
The sheriff was instantly unhappy when he saw it. Was he laughing at him?
“Sorry, I couldn’t help it.”
“But it’s okay, just leave it to us!”
“I guarantee that the robber will be subdued within ten minutes! All the hostages will be rescued!”
The SWAT team quickly put away their smiles and looked at the sheriff opposite them seriously.
Although they put away their smiles, they did not hide the fact that they were laughing at the sheriff.
After all, putting a bug and a camera in a pizza box was a bit too old-fashioned, wasn’t it?
Was it the level of thinking during the Cold War?
Moreover, it took two hours for such an action to be taken.
In the end, they had not succeeded.
It was ridiculous in the eyes of the special force squad leader.
Now the special force squad leader was full of confidence with the layout of the bank.
He decided to end the exercise in ten minutes and show the SWAT team’s combat ability in front of the sheriff.
After listening to the SWAT team, the sheriff did not speak again. A meaningful smile was on his face.
Ten minutes to rescue the hostages?
He seemed to have said that when he left the police station.
But now he was suffered with a rebuff.
He could already imagine the dejected expression on the squad leader’s face after the surprise attack of the SWAT team failed.
The live broadcast hosts of the nearby television stations were waiting for the news material.
The SWAT team and the sheriff did not avoid the media.
The purpose of the exercise was to let them show off their muscles.
After the television station broadcast it, the conversation between the SWAT team and the sheriff instantly caused a discussion.
“Settle it in ten minutes? This SWAT team is a little confident!”
“That’s right. You have to know that the SWAT team’s equipment and the combat ability of its members are all first-class. They must be confident.”
“But why do I feel the SWAT team will be slapped in the face?”

“Probably not. After all, the SWAT team is here. This robber won’t be able to hold on by himself. The drill will probably end soon.”
“Sigh, I just came to watch. Is it about to end soon?”
“Why… I hope the robber can hold on a little longer?”
“…”
Most of the viewers in the live broadcast room were more optimistic about the SWAT team.
After all, the SWAT team was indeed a squad with relatively strong combat strength.
For the robbers to hold on until they appeared in a drill was a situation that had never happened before.
And this also meant that this drill was about to end.
After all, an ordinary robber would not be able to hold on for five minutes before they were subdued, let alone ten minutes.
With the bank layout map held, the captain of the SWAT team found five members and told them about his strategic plan.
The snipers in the squad had already arrived at the best gathering point nearby.
Everything was ready in two minutes.
“Action!”
The captain of the SWAT team waved his hand.
A few well-equipped SWAT members hid themselves and went around the back door of the bank from the back of the car.
The strategy of the SWAT team leader was very simple.
The five members were the assault team. They took the bank president’s ID card and entered through the electronic door at the back.
According to the map of the bank layout, they sneaked into the back of the bank lobby.
They would then use the front door to attract the attention of the robbers.
The snipers on the nearby buildings would look for opportunities to kill the robber directly.
It was the simplest and most common strategy.
And this kind of strategy was also the most useful in actual combat.
“Watch carefully. Give me ten minutes.”
The captain of the SWAT team returned to the side of the sheriff and said slowly.
The sheriff still didn’t speak, but he had a meaningful smile on his face.
The captain of the SWAT team didn’t say much either. He directly picked up the loudspeaker and walked toward the bank.
When he was two to three meters away from the bank’s door, he stopped.
“Listen up, robbers inside. You are surrounded by us now. There is only one way out for you now, and that is to quickly come out and surrender.”
The powerful voice passed through the loudspeaker and slowly echoed in the square.
However, no one responded.
The captain of the SWAT team was not in a hurry. He picked up the loudspeaker again and shouted.
“This stalemate will not benefit you.”
“How about this, you come and talk to us.”
“As long as you release the hostages, we can fulfill some reasonable requests of yours!”
“Do you have any family members you want to meet? We can let you meet them.”
“Do you have anything you want to say? There are media outside. You can tell us all about the grievances you have suffered.”
The captain of the SWAT team continued to shout, but there was still no response.
At this moment, a few members of SWAT team had already entered through the back door of the bank.
They carefully walked forward along the way, but they did not find any danger. It was as if the robbers were completely unaware of their surprise attack.
At this moment, Jon was sitting quietly in the bank.
His expression was calm and he did not pay any attention to the shouting outside.
In the bank, twelve people, including Jon, were all wearing the same clothes, caps, and masks.
Jon was sitting among them. Even Jon’s parents might not be able to find him in a short time.
The captain of SWAT’s voice fell but no one in the bank responded.
The captain of SWAT raised his eyebrows slightly.
Was this robber planning to waste his time like this?
He looked back at the sniper on the roof opposite the bank.
If the robber hid like this and didn’t show up to negotiate, then the sniper wouldn’t be able to catch the target at all.
If the sniper couldn’t play a role, then they could only rely on the assault team!
