Chapter 9
At this moment, the media that smelled the scent also took action quickly.
In this feast of traffic, how could there be no sharks that smelled the scent of blood?

At the Sun’s headquarters, editor-in-chief Richard was looking at the proposal submitted by his subordinates.
As he flipped through the pages, he became more and more irritated.
“A bunch of good-for-nothings. It would be more explosive than you think if I went to Times Square to dance naked!”
The irascible Richard lit up a cigarette.

He browsed the social media platform on his phone to see what was trending today.
An eye-catching headline appeared on his home page.
“The most handsome robber in history!”
“Live broadcast of the robbery. This guy is really too arrogant!”
“Live broadcast the whole time! The robber and the police are confronting each other at the entrance of the bank!”
Richard was smoking as he browsed through the comments.
A large number of netizens flooded into this topic.
He took a deep puff of his cigarette and pressed the remaining half into the ashtray!
This man was the highlight he wanted!
He took out his office phone and called his assistant.
Everyone who was free now, who could run, move and speak rushed to the scene with cameras immediately!
The company’s helicopter was also mobilized.
He wanted to broadcast the entire robbery process live.
He had high hopes for this man.
From the moment Jon entered the scene until now, whether he was doing his job or confronting others, he had always maintained his calm.
This meant that he did not rob impulsively but had a plan!
The news that would be stirred up by this kind of person would be historic.
This traffic would definitely explode!
Richard waved his hand excitedly. Then he picked up the phone again and shouted at his assistant.
“Haven’t you eaten? Do you want me to call a rocket to send you there?”
“If I don’t get the content in half an hour, all of you can f*cking get lost!”
Everyone moved immediately as Richard roared and urged.
At this time, a similar scene played out in all the media companies…
…
In the bank.
Jon showed that he had chased all the hostages to the waiting area.
Then, he had cordoned them off.
Originally…
According to the previous plan, Jon was going to tie up all the hostages.
However…
Jon found that ever since he had used the robber acting skill, his temperament alone was enough to scare the hostages.
Now, they didn’t even dare to whisper. It didn’t seem to make much difference whether they were tied up or not.
He had taken all the hostages under control.
In a building like a bank, most of the walls in front of it were made of glass. And there were no curtains.
The police stood outside the bank could see what was going on in the bank from a distance.
This was very disadvantageous for Jon.
So…
Now he was going to close the windows of the bank.
There were many posters in the bank.
Jon planned to use these posters to cover the glass so that there would be no way to detect the situation inside the bank from the outside.
This would make it impossible for the police to keep track of his movements so that he could be in a favorable position.
More than a dozen posters were posted on the glass walls with instructions.
Although they were not completely sealed, the situation inside the bank was basically invisible from the outside.
“He’s blocking all the glass!”
The police outside the bank were watching Jon’s movements and they couldn’t help but frowned.
Ever since they found out that Jon was broadcasting, a part of the police had been watching the broadcast room.
But they found out that Jon would point the camera at the hostages when he made his move.
This made it impossible for the police to track Jon’s movements through the live broadcast.
This put him in a favorable position.
Seeing that Jon had covered all the glass walls of the bank, the captain thought to himself that it seemed that this kid was planning to confront him for a long time!
“Sir! The bank’s surveillance camera is connected!”
At this moment, a subordinate walked behind the captain and reported the situation.
The captain nodded.
He turned around and walked quickly toward the RV connected to the surveillance camera.
The RV was filled with all kinds of equipment and a few screens were hanging in the RV.
At this moment, the four screens were playing the surveillance footage.
The footage clearly showed the scene in the bank.
The captain sat down and was about to observe the surveillance footage when he saw Jon carried a ladder toward the camera.
He climbed up the ladder calmly.
Jon covered the camera with a piece of A4 paper and taped it securely.
In an instant, the camera turned pitch black.
The police captain could not help but twitched his lips.
He knew what Jon was going to do.
As he ran back and forth, the remaining three cameras were also covered by Jon’s A4 paper. In an instant, the surveillance footage on the four screens turned completely black.
The captain couldn’t help but scratched his head.
“This kid didn’t disappoint you, did he?”
Outside the RV, a slightly aged voice appeared.
“Yo, this kid is quite professional.”
Seeing that the surveillance images were completely covered, the person who came looked even more cheerful.
As he spoke, he was obviously very satisfied with Jon’s actions.
FBI bureau chief…
Hearing the voice beside him, the captain turned his head quickly and greeted the director.
Then, the captain looked at him angrily.
“Not only did your team member use the real thing, he even ‘killed’ one of our team members.”
“Oh right, let me give you a friendly reminder. This robber not only has a weapon but also military grenade.”
After listening to the captain’s complaints, the director had a general understanding of the current situation.
He spoke slowly.
“This is an extremely ferocious robber. He will attack the hostages at any time.”
“These weapons were given to him by me.”
The director’s words instantly shocked the people around him.
The captain’s eyes were filled with anger.
He questioned loudly, “Do you know how dangerous this is! What if the hostages are injured? There are so many media around us. If we don’t handle this properly, we will all be responsible!”
Facing the captain’s doubts, the chief was indeed very relaxed at the moment.
That relaxed look of his was completely like a spectator who wanted to watch the live broadcast.
In the current police force and peaceful era, too many people were self-righteous, lazy, and had low vigilance!
Therefore, the chief prepared this show as actual combat to teach these rookies a lesson.
It was precisely because of this.
The more trouble caused by Jon, who was playing the role of the robber, for the police officers, the happier the chief was.
Hearing the police captain questioned him so much, the chief’s dignity was also revealed.
He looked at the other party and his eyes were staring fiercely at him.
Seeing that the other party’s imposing manner was being suppressed by him, he asked in a deep voice.
“Sir, can you only deal with robbers who rob banks with kitchen knives?”
“Can you be sure that the robbers will play with you like this?!”
“Don’t worry, I’ve already applied for a casualty quota for this show. There will be a pension for death.”
The chief’s words caused a pile of cold sweat to appear on the police captain’s forehead.
This show was definitely the closest to actual combat in recent years!
