Chapter 278: The scene and the robber’s demands

Chapter 278 Situation on the scene and the robbers’ demands

“It was indeed a bank robbery.”

 Moments later, Luo An ran wildly to the scene of the crime and saw a large group of LAPDs surrounding the street outside the entrance of the "Commonwealth Bank", filled with various police vehicles of different heights and sizes parked.

On the promenade in the distance, there were more than two dozen reporters from various media in Los Angeles. In addition to some large news groups, there were also many small entertainment newspapers.

 “As expected of Hollywood.”

At this time, Luo An, wearing a suit and long legs, walked quickly into the LAPD blockade. His posture was very outstanding. The firelight from the police car not far away shone on his face, making him look very determined.

  “Hello, I’m Detective Albert.”

At this time, several LAPD officers walked out from the right, led by a middle-aged white man who looked to be in his forties, chubby, but with sweat on his forehead.

“FBI Los Angeles Division Special Investigations Unit, Deputy Chief Roan Greenwood.”

 Taking out the golden badge from his pocket, Luo An briefly showed his identity and asked:

 “What is the specific situation at the scene?”

As a detective who has worked in the Los Angeles Police Department for many years, Albert only knows a few numbered investigation teams within the FBI. This is the first time he has heard of the Special Investigation Team.

And this was the first time for Albert to meet such a young deputy team leader.

However, there was nothing unusual about what Luo An showed. Detective Albert glanced at Luo An carefully, then turned around and took him into the scene:

“A group of criminals drove into the bank with the goal of robbing the bank. They had bombs in their hands and also took a group of hostages.

The number of hostages is currently unknown, the number and identities of the criminals are unknown, and the criminals have not yet made any demands. "

At the internal scene, all the LAPD dispersed, lying behind the car with guns in both hands, pointing the guns tightly at the bank door. Everyone's face was covered with sweat.

The LAPD in the car that was overturned by the bomb just now has been rushed to rescue. No one knows whether he will survive. Anyway, the appearance is quite bad.

In addition, a group of SWAT team members carrying semi-automatic rifles and anti-riot shields were further ahead, and several snipers were squatting on several high platforms opposite the bank.

After the explosion, the LAPD was shocked and responded as quickly as possible. The speed of dispatching the police was unprecedented.

Although there were a large number of people, the higher-ups had not arrived in a short period of time, so they relied on a slightly higher-ranking Detective Albert for temporary command.

The reason why Albert is still just a police detective at such an old age is because his ability level is average, but he works long hours and only relies on his seniority to get to the position.

This was not the first time Albert had encountered a bank robbery, but he had never been in charge before. He just happened to be on duty today, and everyone at the scene was currently at the highest level for him, so he had to bite the bullet and go ahead.

Now that Luo An, the FBI, appeared, Albert breathed a sigh of relief.

Luo An didn't care about Albert's eyes. After listening to the other party's introduction, he casually took a small telescope from an LAPD, jumped onto the police car and observed the inside of the bank, and found that there were several guys wearing hoods in the lobby. Bombs are planted on the hostages.

The situation deeper in the bank cannot be seen. There are eight robbers in total, only five of them are in the lobby, and three others are missing.

 “Fu-k!”

Luo An cursed in a low voice when he saw this, jumped out of the police car and turned around and asked:

 “Where are the bank executives? Let them get here immediately!”

Although the bank that was robbed was called "Federal Bank", it was not owned by a federal country, but a large bank controlled by a California consortium.

 “The senior bank officials will be here soon.”

Detective Albert quickly answered, and at the same time, a SWAT team member came over and said loudly:

"The backdoor of the bank has been deployed! Two SWAT teams have completely blocked the area."

 “Good.”

 Luo An waved and asked the LAPD to get him a loudspeaker. While waiting, he crossed his arms and stared at the bank not far away, frowning in thought.

As far as Luo An knows, although this bank is located in Los Angeles, its main business is not ordinary Los Angeles people, but the big companies in Hollywood. From the start of filming to the release of a movie, a large amount of money is definitely indispensable. In order to share risks, Hollywood film company funds often do not bear all the funds at one time, but go out to find outsiders or peers to invest in it.

In order to prevent their funds from disappearing under unknown circumstances, investors usually find a third party to supervise the expenditure of funds during the filming process. This is one of the main businesses of this "Federal Bank".

 So, there is not much money in the vault of this bank building, and there is not much gold. Both are far inferior to the JPMorgan Chase Bank on another street, not far from here.

From the perspective of effort and gain, it seems that it is not very cost-effective to engage in such a big show and spend so much effort to rob this bank.

But think of the world-class hacker Mona found out before...

 Luo An narrowed his eyes slightly and had some new ideas about the bank robbery in front of him.

LAPD quickly brought a loudspeaker to Luo An, but before Luo An could speak, two people suddenly walked out of the bank opposite:

A robber wearing a black hood held a gun against a pale and trembling hostage with a bomb strapped to his body.

The robber was not afraid at all in the face of numerous gunpoints. He took out a mobile phone from his pocket and threw it at the nearest LAPD, and then slowly returned to the bank.

The phone was quickly delivered to Detective Albert. Albert subconsciously handed the phone to Luo An, and Luo An waved his hand to indicate to the other party to answer the call.

Albert's mouth twitched slightly and he pressed the answer button. A magnetic and unhurried male voice came from the other end of the phone:

 “Hello, let me introduce myself, my name is Jack.”

 “Hello, Jack.”

Luo An was standing next to Albert and also heard the voice on the phone. Albert took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

 “Say what you want.”

 “I like straightforward police officers!”

Jack on the other end of the phone laughed and said:

“Within 30 minutes, the airport will prepare a plane for us to go abroad. We will go to the airport with the hostages in a car later.

To give a brief introduction, the hostages in the bank are now tied with bombs. If you do not complete my request within the specified time, I will blow up one hostage every three minutes. "

 After saying that, Jack hung up the phone first without waiting for Albert to answer.

 “Sonof better than eating!”

Hearing the busy signal on the phone, Detective Albert cursed loudly. How could a young detective like him have such authority?

But at this time, behind a police car ten steps away from him and Luo An, the LAPD police chief and FBI team director Potente Byrne all arrived at the scene.

Morton York, leader of Investigation Team No. 4, also arrived here from another direction with two detectives.

Detective Albert's eyes lit up when he saw the chief arriving. Roan and team leader Potente Byrne looked at each other. Just as they were about to walk over with Albert, Mona and Lacey suddenly appeared together.

 Among them, Mona quickly ran to Luo An holding her laptop and whispered:

 “Luo An! I discovered something here!”

Roan made eye contact with the team leader Potente Byrne for a second, then stopped and took the computer handed to him by Mona.

At times like this, clues are the most important!

Detective Albert quickly ran to the police chief, raised his mobile phone and introduced the case to the boss:

“Sir, the situation is urgent now. The robber’s request is...”

On the other side, Morton York, the leader of the No. 4 investigation team, frowned when he saw the three Luo An at the scene. He did not expect that they had arrived here earlier than him.

But now we should first understand the situation on the scene. As soon as Morton-York raised his feet and prepared to go to the team leader's position, Luo An suddenly held his laptop and walked there faster than him.
