Chapter 122 John’s talk
Feeling that the situation was about to escalate, John rushed forward.
Damn it. How much money does the bank give you in a month?
Jack cursed the Sabi security guard in his heart, quickly pulled out his Glock and followed him.
“Be careful not to shoot, the two hostages escaped.”
John reported to the walkie-talkie while rushing in. Jack could only guide the two escaped hostages to run in a safe direction to avoid entering the shooting area of Nila and Lucy across the street.
When Jack rushed into the bank, the black security guard fell to the ground with blood all over his head. He glanced at it. Fortunately, he was hit by the butt of the gun and his skin was only broken.
John was pointing his gun at the pillar in the hall. The robber's hood was pulled off by the black security guard during the fight. He was hiding behind the pillar holding the money bag. The small revolver in his hand was pointing at a man who fell down due to fright. A local female bank teller.
Jack's eyes narrowed slightly. From this distance, he was sure to shoot off the hand holding the gun.
"Go away, or I will shoot." The robber was so nervous that the hand holding the gun shook violently.
After a long time, John's verbal abuse was finally able to show off again.
"No, no, you won't shoot. The situation is a bit out of control, but we can find a way to solve it."
"Impossible, if you don't let me leave with this bag, She’s dead.”
Jack was a little surprised. Although the robber looked Latino, the leather jacket he was wearing was from Gucci, and the belt around his waist was from Hermès. He was wearing this to rob. Still here for a meeting? Could it be that this is another middle-class person who has been forced into a desperate situation?
Feeling that things were a bit weird, Jack decided to wait and see what would happen and let John talk for a while. The uncle hadn't had a chance to appear for a while, so it was not good to keep stealing other people's highlight moments.
"You go out first, take the others with you." Jack helped to lift the black security guard on the ground, so that there would be fewer people on the scene to avoid any accidents later.
"Officer Harper, Officer Chen, please pay attention, the remaining hostages are leaving now to avoid accidental injury."
After announcing on the intercom, standing at the door to escort all the hostages to evacuate, Jack suddenly felt a sense of excitement He was throbbing, as if someone was watching him.
He leaned the intercom on his shoulder and pretended to continue talking. He looked in that direction with his peripheral vision and found that there was a faint sound in the cab of a dirty van parked on the side of the road next to the steps he had just come up from. A head suddenly shrank back into the back seat.
When I came here just now, I saw that the cab of this car was empty, so I didn't pay much attention to it. Now that I sensed someone peeping inside, the parking position can't help but make people suspicious.
Jack pretended not to notice anything, turned around and walked towards John as if nothing had happened, and asked in a low voice on the intercom.
"Harper, do you think the van with the name Nonna Primo's Pizzeria at the door might be the accomplice responsible for the response?"
Not long after, Harper The voice came: "Can you see someone inside? There is a dark film on the car window, so I can't see clearly inside the car."
"I noticed someone inside was peeping into the bank. Is there a way to prevent the other party from escaping without alerting him? "
Jack couldn't tell whether the other party was really an accomplice of the robbers, or a very curious person, but at that position he could only Seeing the situation in a small area in front of the bank, and the policemen with guns on the opposite side, no one with a reasonable mind would choose to stay in such a position where they could encounter stray bullets at any time.
Although there are many people with abnormal brains in LA, every day of the gun battle goes by for a long time. This kind of basic "common sense" should be possessed by ordinary citizens. "No problem, I'll have people place spike strips at both ends of the street. You and John should be careful inside." Harper replied.
Jack replied OK, walked over to John, and listened to his continued talk.
Perhaps he has just experienced a big scene full of bullets, or he has enough confidence to control the current situation. Jack feels that he lacks the most basic sense of tension. He feels a little emotional in his heart. This world is really training for people. ah.
At this time, John not only had asked the other party's name, but had even begun to reminisce about the past.
"Hey, Cooper, it's funny, this isn't the first time I've encountered a bank robbery. The last time was before I became a police officer. At that time, I was newly divorced and had a lot of trouble behind me."
“.It was also the bank robbery that was successfully prevented. Well, it was not very successful, but no matter what, no one was injured except for me, who took two blows.”
“Exactly. This experience allowed me to find the right direction again after I reached middle age and became a police officer. The same goes for you. You can stop before anyone is injured and you don’t want your family. I’m sad for you.”
Uncle John’s level of rhetoric is probably beyond his reach in this life. Even if his psychology skills are upgraded to a master in the future, Jack sighs in his heart. Fortunately, he has also mastered psychology. The secret to convincing people.
As long as your marksmanship is accurate and fast enough, you can completely convince the enemy before they can react.
The robber was really moved by John, "Listen, I don't want to hurt anyone, but I have no choice, you know? Because of my family."
John responded with affection: "I understand, but yours Your family must also hope that you can get out alive, so let this girl go first."
The robber Kubo finally relented, "Listen, if I do it, you have to let me escape safely."
"Uh" John said truthfully: "This is unlikely. You have to know that there are police outside now, and more police will come later. At this point, I suggest you put down your gun and let this person Let it all end."
"No, you don't understand." The robber Kubo showed despair, "She can leave, but you must let me leave. My wife and daughter are waiting for me. Without this money, they would die.”
John was confused, "Are they sick? Are they in urgent need of money?"
Jack was annoyed by the Riddler the most. Many tragedies in those film and television works were caused by misunderstandings caused by unclear words. The brain capacity of those authors or screenwriters is only so big on purpose. It is so insulting to people's intelligence.
So he impatiently interrupted: "Let that girl leave first, we won't force you to come out, everyone can speak clearly slowly, you can see that John is a good person, and I am okay too , we will help you as much as possible. "
Cooper hesitated and waved the revolver in his hand. The female bank clerk on the ground quickly got up and bent down to escape from the bank.
Things went surprisingly smoothly. Jack was in a much better mood because he missed lunch, and planned to let this guy say a few more words.
Without the hostage, this guy named Cooper was no longer a threat. With the way he was holding the gun tremblingly, Jack was fully confident that he would empty the magazine of his Glock before he wanted to act rashly.
