Chapter 1271 Smart Man
When the landing reached two-thirds, about seven or eight meters, the iron frame being repaired had reached the top.
Further down, there is only an empty vertical hole of about half a meter.
Sir Zhang hung on the last iron rod and continued to listen for any movement below.
After confirming that there was no sound from below, he stretched out his hand directly this time, but opened his feet slightly, stepped on the wall one left and one right, and then slowly landed down as if walking. .
Zhang Pin took every step very steadily.
Just like that, when he saw the empty space below, there was only about five meters above the ground.
With such a small distance, Sir Zhang no longer moved slowly, but directly put his feet away and fell towards the ground.
Bang——
After Zhang Pin landed, he quickly rolled off the ground and then looked around.
After seeing what was going on around him, he felt a lot more relieved.
Because this place is empty and there is no ambush.
However, although there was no one around, Zhang Pin did not relax his vigilance.
Because inside the underground tunnel, he saw very clear tire tracks and dust still floating in the air.
These evidences clearly show that a convoy passed here not long ago.
Dududu——
Just as Zhang Pin was observing his surroundings, a whistle suddenly sounded in front of him.
Zhang Pin looked around, quickly found a corner with piles of stone slabs, and hid behind it.
"Don't come down, the height of the iron fence is too high. Wait until I go to the front to see if there is any ambush there. Then drive back and come in directly from the main entrance."
Zhang Pin took out the walkie-talkie and gave Chen Jiaju and others a reminder.
Even though it seemed easy for him to jump from that height just now, if it were an ordinary person, it would still be very dangerous, especially now that there are cars approaching this way.
"Roger it!" Chen Jiaju's voice came from the walkie-talkie.
If it weren’t for Zhang Pin’s show of strength at the beginning, Chen Jiaju would definitely not have answered so readily now.
After all, he is a person who likes to take unconventional paths, even if he knows that going down a vent like this is troublesome.
But with Zhang Pin in front of him, Chen Jiaju evaluated his ability in his mind. Even if he could get down from here, he would definitely be in a mess.
Although Chen Jiaju is convinced by Zhang Pin, he still likes to secretly compete with Zhang Pin on some things.
At times like this, when he saw that he was no match for Zhang Pin, he no longer insisted on choosing to lose face.
Zhang Pin naturally doesn't know why Chen Jiaju is so obedient at the moment, and he doesn't care much.
Firstly, it was because Chen Jiaju was always more obedient in front of him, and secondly, the sound of cars was getting closer and closer.
Didi Didi——
The car was driving and honking its horn. Zhang Pin was not sure whether the other party was honking a warning because the lights in the tunnel were dim, or whether the whistle contained some secret signal.
Hearing the continuous sound of the whistle, Zhang Pin thought for a while, he directly picked up a few stones piled in front, and then threw them into the middle of the road.
After throwing the stone, Zhang Pin thought for a while and simply walked to the uncovered corner on the opposite side to stand. Then he picked up a stone and smashed all the nearby emergency lights, leaving only He turned off the lamp where the rocks were piled.
In this way, although there is nothing to cover, because Sir Zhang is standing in the corner, if someone comes over, he will pay attention to the other side immediately.
The car itself has lights. The reason why Sir Zhang destroyed the emergency lights was not to hide, but to attract the driver's attention.
Not long after Zhang Pin broke the emergency light, a beam of headlights shone from a distance.
Sir Zhang took advantage of the light just coming over, so he adjusted his position slightly.
Soon, he saw a car coming from the opposite direction.
The opponent's speed was neither too fast nor too slow, and the whistle never stopped.
Buzz--
Just when Zhang Pin thought that the other party would stop because of the stones blocking the road and the dim lights, the car continued to drive forward without slowing down at all.
However, the other party obviously did not notice Sir Zhang standing in the corner.
Creak——
But not long after driving forward, the other party’s car had to stop.
Because the chassis of the car has been stuck by rocks.
"Hey, why are the lights here broken?"
Soon, the car stopped, and the people in the car realized belatedly that the emergency lights inside the tunnel had been extinguished.
Zhang Pin overlooked a problem before. Because the car itself has lights, it is difficult for the driver to notice the dim emergency lights in the tunnel itself.
“Careful!”
Da da da da—
The next second, another voice sounded in the car, and then the roar of a submachine gun sounded, and a series of bullets were fired at the location of the pile of rocks.
"There is no one. What are you doing so suspiciously? Go quickly. We have been delayed for half an hour because we have to cut off the rear."
After the sound of bullets stopped, the driver went there After taking a look and seeing no one, he couldn't help but complain.
"Boss is simply too careful. He always thinks someone will follow us secretly. We have been hiding here for more than a month. If anyone knew we were here, they should have come long ago."
< br>"What can we do? If you can, you can leave directly with this car of gold, but do you have a way to leave London?"
After hearing the driver's complaint, the gunman who had just fired spoke with an indifferent expression.
The two obviously didn't deal with each other that way. Simon did this intentionally to prevent them from escaping with the gold in private.
“Hmph.”
Hearing the gunman’s ridicule, the driver hummed a few words, but eventually changed the subject.
“I’ll go down and move it. Maybe the car in front of me ran over the stone and left it unattended.”
The driver chose to change the topic. Even if they were in the same team, everyone couldn't be of the same mind. Although the driver was a little dissatisfied with being left behind, he didn't go to the extent of running away with the money.
Not to mention that there is a guy with a weapon watching him eagerly.
And as the gunman said, without Simon, even if he got the gold, he would not be able to leave London.
“Be careful, I always feel something is wrong.”
Unlike the driver who was careless, the gunman was not that slow.
When the car got stuck by a rock and the lights in the tunnel went out, he always felt that everything seemed man-made.
"It seems Simon has left." Suddenly, Zhang Pin's voice sounded in their ears.
"Who?" The driver was startled by Zhang Pin's words, and the other gunman directly raised his weapon.
"If I were you, what I should do now is to put down my weapon and raise my hands."
But before the other party pointed the gun at him, Zhang Pin's pistol was already pointed at the opponent's temple.
At the same time, he also took the initiative to speak and reminded the other party to surrender.
But I don’t know if his movements were too gentle, or if the other party was really not afraid of death. He could already feel the cold muzzle on his temple, and the gunman continued to adjust his muzzle.
Bang——
Seeing this, Sir Zhang did not hesitate and pulled the trigger directly. Poof——
Blood instantly splashed on the face of the driver who turned around to look over.
Zhang Pin: "I think you are a smart person, right?"
Zhang Pin killed the gunman with an understatement, and then looked at the driver who seemed to be frightened.
"Yes, yes, I am a smart person, I surrender!"
It was hard to tell whether the driver was smart or not, but he was quite aware of current affairs.
When he heard what Zhang Pin said, he immediately raised his hands in a wise gesture of surrender.
"Very good, I like smart people."
Zhang Pin nodded, then looked at the other person, and then waved his gun towards the outside of the car.
The driver reacted quickly, opened the car door quickly, and jumped out.
Zhang Pin was standing on the other side. He waited deliberately before walking over.
Contrary to his expectation, the driver actually stood still and didn't lower his raised hands.
"Hey, don't you try to escape? Or maybe you can sneak attack me."
Seeing this, Zhang Pin asked curiously.
"No, I have always been very trustworthy. I will surrender when I say I will surrender."
The driver smiled flatteringly at Zhang Pin, but was muttering in his heart, he It wasn't his first day out, so of course he knew he was being ambushed.
Since someone is ambushing here, how dare he act randomly? After all, Zhang Pin just shot and killed his accomplice without hesitation. He is not tired of living yet, so naturally he does not want to die so soon.
"Very good, what's your name?"
Zhang Pin smiled again, and then directly asked the other party's information.
"My name is Pal. As you can see, I am a driver. By the way, we have one hundred kilograms of gold in the car."
The driver did not hesitate to choose to betray the original The boss, Simon, also used the gold they snatched as a bargaining chip, and wanted Zhang Pin to let him go.
"One hundred kilograms, how many cars do you have in total?"
Zhang Pin was completely unfazed when he heard such a small amount of gold.
One hundred kilograms of gold sounds like a lot, but with Sir Zhang's current status, one hundred kilograms of gold can only be exchanged for three to four million US dollars at most.
Of course this amount of money is a huge sum of money to others, but Sir Zhang did not take it seriously.
Instead, he asked a question that he was more concerned about.
"How many cars? If I remember correctly, there are four cars in total."
The driver Parr answered Zhang Pin's question quickly.
"Four cars, each car contains the same amount of gold?"
When Zhang Pin heard this number, he immediately frowned.
Because this was seriously inconsistent with the amount he expected. After all, the Federal Reserve claimed at the time that it had lost a ton of gold.
Now, if each car only contains 100 kilograms, the gap will be a bit big.
“No, no, no, not every car is the same.”
The driver shook his head at this time.
Zhang Pin was relieved when he heard that. It seemed that although the Fed was a little greedy, it was not too outrageous.
“Our car is loaded with more, the other two cars are only loaded with fifty kilograms each.”
Zhang Pin: "."
He found that he still underestimated these financial guys. These guys were too dirty-minded and had no bottom line at all.
I just lost three hundred kilograms of stuff, so I dared to shout one ton.
Simon and others worked hard and risked their lives to do such a big thing, but they only got 30%. These guys sit in the office with high salaries and benefits, and they just open and close their mouths and earn 70%. become.
“Such a small amount of money? Is it worth your efforts?”
Zhang Pin even sympathized with Simon and others at this time.
They risked their lives and were hunted down from North America to Europe, but in the end they only received tens of millions of dollars.
“It’s quite a lot. Each of us can share close to one million US dollars. If you work part-time, you won’t be able to earn this much money in a lifetime.”
The driver is very concerned about his income. satisfy.
"Well, then I probably understand. Have they left first? Do you know where your destination is?"
Zhang Pin did not argue with the other party whether one million US dollars was enough to sacrifice his life, but asked about the things he cared more about.
"I don't know. Simon only asked me to watch from behind to see if anyone was following us, and then agreed to wait for us to meet at the dam. He would never tell us our next move in advance."
After the driver finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Pin anxiously, as if he was worried that he wouldn't believe it.
"Dam? Does this subway lead to a dam?"
Hearing the driver's words, Zhang Pin did not immediately judge the authenticity, but quickly grasped the key points.
"Ah, that should be it. I remember when I passed by there, I saw a place full of water. The wall there was specially reinforced for waterproofing."
The driver thought about it at once. He told me all the information he knew.
"You are going to leave from the dam. Where does this dam lead to?"
Zhang Pin immediately paid attention.
He found that he had overlooked one point.
London is not close to the sea, but there is a Thames River.
Just before he came in, he saw that the subway under construction eventually led to a pier.
At that time, Zhang Pin didn't care. Because of the gold case and a lot of things going on in London during this period, all the docks were equipped with forces to set up defenses. Generally speaking, it was impossible for anyone to leave from the docks.
But after hearing the driver talking about the dam, Sir Zhang realized that these guys did not necessarily need to leave from the dock.
The Thames River flows into the sea, and London is only 70 to 80 kilometers away from the nearest seaside.
Simon and others chose to use this place to hide, apparently finding an underground river or tributary that could avoid inspection.
"I don't know either. The dam has been sealed and reinforced. I haven't been out there, so I don't know where it leads, and I probably won't leave from there."
The driver shook his head and showed that he knew nothing about the dam.
"It's sealed. How far is the dam from here? How did you contact us?"
After Zhang Pin heard the news that the dam was originally sealed, he not only Instead of breathing a sigh of relief, he became even more determined.
"It's not far from here. We drove for about half an hour. We were contacted through the walkie-talkie, and then the horn sounded every minute. Now now"
The driver's face became panicked.
Hearing the other party's explanation, Zhang Pin turned around and took a look at the car. He found that the intercom was still flashing red, and he was obviously on a call.
Only at this moment did he look at the driver thoughtfully. For a moment, he really couldn't tell whether the driver was pretending or real.
Take a day off tomorrow, sorry
