This vault is quite large inside, covering nearly forty or fifty square meters. There are shelves in the aisles and on the surrounding walls. There are also trolleys on the ground. Many of them have banknotes, silver coins, and gold bars on them. And unopened boxes of money.
Xiru said: "Several boxes of money were delivered yesterday. I didn't look at them during the last shift."
"Yes." Lian Yishan said: "The ones that came yesterday afternoon were all new coins, a total of twenty-two boxes."
Xiru nodded and wrote his name in the notebook. Said: "Okay, let's go quickly. I'll count the boxes and wait a minute! Doesn't this seem like enough?"
"It's inside." Lian Yishan said: "These guys are not very particular about their work. They just put them in the middle of the ground. Doesn't it affect walking? I put half of them inside against the wall."
"Ah." Xi Ru nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go take a look, you go. Don't lock the door."
"Okay." Lian Yishan said, "Let's go."
When Lian Yishan turned around and walked out, Xiru also made a move to walk inside. When Lian Yishan came out of the vault. Xiru has come to the other side. Sure enough, in the corner, there were about a dozen wooden boxes containing various styles. He quickly took out the ink pad and opened the lid. Crouched down.
The metal box that holds the banknote printing plate is on the innermost shelf on this side, at the bottom.
Xiru quickly pressed the metal box down, then held the ink pad with his other hand, pointed at the keyhole on the top of the box, and pressed it hard. Then he took it back and looked at it, okay. Very clear.
Then while closing the lid, he scanned the keyhole of the metal box. OK, there is no sticky ink pad left on it. But Xiru still put the small box in his pocket with his right hand and wiped the keyhole with his left hand. He quickly stood up, took his notebook and walked out.
Xiru walked in, printed the seal with clay, and walked out, which took less than a minute in total. He walked out of the door and said, "Okay, close the door and bring me the key."
Next to him, a security guard with a cannon on his waist immediately agreed. He turned around and closed the vault door, then turned the turntable a few times until it reached the end. He reached out and pulled out the key, and then walked to the small passage on the side of the vault. It was a space with no door. Inside is the lounge, but part of the space inside is partitioned off and becomes a security team leader's room.
After collecting the key, Xiru hung it on his belt, waved his hand and said: "The deposit car will be a little late today. Call me when it comes."
"Okay." The security guard agreed, turned around and went out.
In this way, the day passed quickly. In the evening, around ten o'clock. Xiru walked out of his team leader's room, inspected the sentry, and then went back to rest.
So soon it was two o'clock in the middle of the night. Xiru came out of the team leader's room again and started patrolling.
In fact, the so-called patrol means that he, the security team leader, checks the security posts in key places at a specific time, or at an unspecified random time.
Night and day are different. During the day, there are security guards on the Changbai shift who are responsible for the security situation on the first floor. And in the evening, the security guard on the Changbai shift went home from get off work. The bank is closed during the holidays, and other people, such as the clerks responsible for deposits and withdrawals, wait after get off work. In the entire pseudo-China Reserve Bank, there are only two shifts of security guards left.
But there are quite a lot of security guards working in two shifts. There are twelve in each shift, and including the team leader, there are thirteen. For an ordinary bank, it would be good to have two security guards working the night shift at night. But the pseudo-China Reserve Bank is relatively large after all, so there are as many as thirteen security guards on duty at night. And all of them have guns. Among them were four German submachine guns, and the rest were all Mauser box guns.
After the Pseudo Central Reserve got off work, the doors in the lobby on the first floor were locked, and the main entrance and two side doors were locked. Then there were two security guards with two submachine guns sitting on guard in the lobby on the first floor.
The business room inside the metal fence and the money transfer room inside. Here there are two people standing guard with box cannons at night.
In the hall, there is an iron door on the right side with a stairwell inside. This stairwell is where you can enter the business room and the money transfer room behind the counter. But to go to the counter, you have to enter an iron gate. There is no need to go up and down the stairs.
So this stairwell is also very critical. There were also two men on guard with Mauser box guns. After the fake China Reserve gets off work, there is no need to put all the money in the underground vault. Instead, put it in the transit room. So it can be said that there is actually a lot of money stored on the first floor. And whether you are going up or downstairs, you need to pass through the first floor first, so during the night watch, there are so many people on the first floor, stationed at key positions.
The administrative staff's offices are located above the second floor, so there must be no vaults. But, after all, it is a pseudo-China Reserve Bank. Its status is equivalent to that of the central bank of each country. Therefore, although there are not many banknotes in the administrative staff's office, there are some more important documents and the like. So at night, there were two security guards stationed in the stairwell on the second floor with box cannons.
There were four people left, two of whom were on guard in the stairwell underground. They were armed with submachine guns. Then the other two people were sitting on guard next to the underground vault.
Of course, you want to ask if you can sleep during the night shift? The rule is definitely not to sleep. But, actually, just stare at the pillar and stand straight until the next morning? That's also impossible.
After inspecting the second and first floors, Xiru came to the basement level again. He looked at the two security guards next to the vault. Xiru said nothing and returned directly to his team leader's room again.
Overall, Xiru felt that the security guards on the first and second floors would not have any impact on his actions. This is true even in the stairwell on the ground floor.
The most critical thing is the two security guards next to the vault. If you act at night, you will almost certainly be discovered. Didn't the person named Lao Tai say that he still had plenty of time and could not take the risk of being exposed? Therefore, Xiru felt that it might not be possible to go to the vault to find these two people sleeping.
After all, the treasury door is right next to this post. If you open the treasury at night, no matter how gentle you are, can you guarantee that these two people will not notice it? Definitely not. Do you know that when people close their eyes, they squint for a while, or are they really asleep? Even if you fall asleep, you may open your eyes at some point, and you will definitely see the vault door open, and then the whole thing will be exposed.
