"Ye Keren!"
In the hotel cafe, Gao Ning knocked on the table lightly, with some memories in his eyes.
"This should be a character from The Negotiator, right? Well, the second heroine, it seems that there are still many unexplored plot lines in this world!"
"gentlemen?"
A waiter wearing a white shirt and black vest came over, smiling and bowing slightly.
"Exchange me for a cup of Italian double espresso, don't buy it, thank you!"
Gao Ning pushed aside the American coffee in front of him and smiled.
"No problem, come right away!"
The waiter didn't say a word nonsense, took the cup and turned around to leave.
"We have an unexpected guest. Do you want to do something fancy?"
Gao Ning thought for a while and shook his head.
Now is not the time to have fun, so just concentrate on getting points.
10 billion is just 1 million points. In the reincarnation space, it can barely be exchanged for Taishang Laojun's Nine-turn Resurrection Pill.
It's not something too outrageous.
The reincarnation space should not regret it halfway.
If it is a temporary regret, it can be regarded as the generation of spiritual wisdom.
The corners of Gao Ning's mouth turned up slightly, with a trace of expectation in his eyes.
"I wonder what level of criminal the main god of the reincarnation space is?"
…
Banknote printing plant.
Ye Meili and Ye Keren walked into the factory under the escort of gangsters. What they saw was a huge printing press dozens of meters long.
The machine is busy at a rapid pace. Huge sheets of paper two meters wide enter from here, follow the conveyor belt all the way down, and finally turn into large chunks of banknotes in the rear outlet, which are quickly piled up on the transfer truck. superior.
The factory building is divided into two parts: the lower part and the upper maintenance channel, both of which are occupied by gangsters wearing uniforms and masks and carrying AK47s on their bodies.
Ye Keren only glanced at it and was so frightened that he stopped breathing.
On the contrary, Ye Meili was just vigilant and much calmer.
"You are a guest, sit down and talk!"
The masked man pointed at a rattan table and chairs that had been placed in advance and made an invitation gesture, then sat down on it.
Golden Ak left it behind him casually, grabbed a magazine on the table, and flipped through it casually.
Ye Keren looked at Ye Meili and saw that this woman was always calm and composed. While he was confused, he also secretly admired her.
She took a deep breath and pulled Ye Meili to sit down.
"Sir, what should I call you?"
"Call me Daddy-Long-Legs!" the masked man replied.
Ye Keren was stunned for a moment and looked at the masked man's legs.
The masked man really straightened his legs: "How is it? Doesn't he live up to his name?"
Ye Meili wanted to laugh a little. She suddenly felt that this guy was quite interesting, but he was a little too bold.
"Well, Mr. Long-Legs, I wonder what you want? We all know that violence cannot solve any problems. In addition to hurting innocent people, you will also hurt yourself.
Therefore, our police hope that we can try to minimize the impact of this vicious incident. As long as your request is not excessive, our police will try our best to meet it! "
"Is it really okay for you to speak so clearly when you come up like this? What if you fail to do what I ask for and kill a few hostages in anger on the spot, will you be blamed for it?" The masked man asked back. road.
Ye Keren's breath was suffocated, and after a moment he forced a smile and said, "I am trying to be as sincere as possible to avoid this situation, don't you think so?"
"That makes sense!" The masked man thought for a while, nodded indifferently, lowered his head and continued to flip through the magazine, saying: "My request is very simple. Let me stay here for three days. Once the three days are over, I I will release all the hostages and take my brothers to surrender to the police!"
As soon as these words came out, not to mention Ye Keren, even Ye Meili's eyes widened.
She couldn't help but interject: "What are you trying to do?"
"It's fun!" The masked man shrugged: "I have never printed money in my life. I am going to spend three days printing 10 billion. It will be fun!
By the way, I don’t know if you two have seen the video tape I sent out before, but it doesn’t matter, I can say it again.
The task of your police is to block the Hong Kong Monetary Authority for three days. It would be even better if you could make those arrogant rich men get angry and force a few executive directors or higher-level officials to death!
If my conditions are met, I will release 20 hostages at midnight every day.
If you can't stand the pressure, don't blame me for being cruel! Your police force is a violent organization, it is the patron saint of this island, and it has a huge force of more than 30,000 people. If you can't even hold up a single Hong Kong Monetary Authority, it means that the police have nothing to trust!
There is no trust between the two parties, so there is no need to talk. Let’s fight and kill when it’s time! "
Ye Keren suddenly felt at a loss.
Although she has gone through rigorous training as a negotiator, she has also done many field operations and successfully rescued many people who jumped from buildings and took hostages.
But I have never met a guy like the guy in front of me who doesn't take his own life and that of his men seriously, and doesn't care whether he goes to jail or not. He just wants to watch the confrontation between the police and the Monetary Authority.
How could there be such a person!
Be sick!
Ye Keren was very angry, but didn't know what to say.
Ye Meili was keenly aware of this and said: "Your conditions are indeed very clear. Whether this can be done depends on the results of weighing the pros and cons. We are just soldiers fighting in the front line!"
The masked man nodded: "I know!"
"That's good!"
Ye Meili smiled: "Officer Ye, since everything has been made clear, why don't you go out and deliver the news first, while I stay here and continue to persuade Mr. Long Legs!"
Ye Keren hurriedly said: "How can this be done! Miss Ye..."
"Call me beautiful!"
"Well, Miss Beautiful, you are not a police officer after all. I have rashly asked you to join in to help me be brave. You have already taken a lot of risks. I can't leave you here..."
Ye Keren changed his mind decisively and hurriedly persuaded him.
"Don't worry! I volunteered! And Mr. Long-Legs should be able to guarantee my safety, right?"
Ye Meili looked at the masked man with a smile, and then seemed to suddenly remember something: "Hey, by the way, I always hear you talking about hostages. Why didn't I see where they were? Couldn't you have killed them all? "
"It's very possible!" The masked man nodded pretending to be serious, leaning forward slightly, his whole style quickly turned black and white, and an indescribable pressure appeared out of thin air.
"In this case...are you still going to stay?"
Ye Keren felt like the hairs on his hair were standing on end, his heart was pounding, and his beating speed was accelerating.
Wave after wave of fear that could not be described in words made her breathe harder.
Just when she couldn't help but scream.
Ye Meili suddenly pinched her. The sudden pain broke her fearful mood and she couldn't help but cry out.
The momentum was suddenly broken, and everything returned to calm. The masked man looked like Ye Keren, and looked at Ye Meili, who was always smiling as if he didn't feel anything. He suddenly laughed: "Interesting! You are really interesting. ! As expected of the famous Black Rose, she has two brushes!"
Ye Meili's smile did not change at all: "I don't dare to take it. I haven't been out of the world for a long time, and I didn't expect that someone like you would appear!"
black Rose?
Is she a black rose?
Ye Keren's mouth opened wide, and he was stunned for a moment before realizing that now was not the time to be surprised.
"I'm not as good as you. It's just a whim! Miss negotiator? How long are you going to do it?"
"I'm going to deliver the news!" Ye Keren stood up abruptly. She glanced at Ye Meili, saw her shaking her head slightly, and continued: "But first, we need to confirm the safety of the hostages. I hope Mr. Long Legs can understand!"
"Understood! Let's get down to business!"
The masked man raised his hand and snapped his fingers. A group of people standing in the maintenance passage on the second floor suddenly took off their masks and looked at Ye Keren with complicated expressions.
These guys are both male and female, with childish faces. At first glance, they look like middle school students who have not yet reached adulthood.
"There are 42 students and teachers in St. Petersburg Middle School, no one is missing. Do you want to count them?"
"What about the employees at the banknote printing factory?" Ye Keren asked.
The masked man stopped talking and looked at her quietly.
Ye Meili closed her eyes unbearably and silently pointed at the people busy on both sides of the equipment.
Ye Keren looked over and saw only a group of guys wearing orange uniforms and masks.
She was stunned for a moment, then suddenly reacted, and her cheeks turned red.
"I understand! Thank you Mr. Long-Legs for your cooperation!"
She nodded in a panic, turned around and ran out in small steps.
Several gangsters followed behind with aks in hand, and their figures quickly disappeared.
The masked man spread his palms helplessly: "Do you want me to change my opponent? Bullying a little girl is really unjustifiable!"
Ye Meili shrugged and said, "Do you want to change to a master?"
"It's fun to compete with masters!"
"Then am I considered a master?"
"Of course forget it! At least so far I haven't figured out what your purpose is!"
"Oh, my, I'm just an ordinary hostage now, there's no need to think too much, right?"
"If I really think so, I'm not far from death!"
The masked man stood up and pointed at Ye Meili, who was sitting opposite: "Change her clothes and send her out!"
Ye Meili: "..."
…
Outside, in the temporary police position, Ye Keren walked slowly back to the command vehicle.
"Sir!" She stood at attention and saluted all the senior police officers present.
Wherever he looked, he saw a tall man, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"boss!"
"What kind of boss are you boss! I have already been transferred to the logistics department. We are in different departments, so just call me sir!"
The man waved his hand carelessly.
Ye Keren saluted again: "Sir!"
Huang Qifa couldn't help but interrupt: "What time is it? Let's talk about the situation quickly. What's going on with those guys? Are the hostages safe? What are you doing?"
Ye Keren nodded: "The gangsters are very cautious. They changed all the hostages' clothes and dressed them up like the gangsters."
"Wow! The Spanish classic bank robbery method, these guys are interesting!" The man raised his eyebrows in interest.
"Don't interrupt, let Chief Ye continue!" Huang Qifa said impatiently.
"The other party was very sensible, and we had a brief exchange. The main topic was that they repeated the previous conditions. The other party said that they just wanted to hijack the printing factory for three days and print money for fun.
As long as they are not disturbed within these three days, the other side will release some hostages every day and will surrender on the last day..."
"impossible!"
Before Ye Keren finished speaking, he was angrily interrupted by Consultant Liu: "This is a banknote printing factory. Do they think it is their own toilet? They can occupy it for as many days as they want?"
Three days were enough time for public opinion to make this incident known to everyone. Once the news reached London, it would be known to the whole world.
The currency will be severely affected by then! Do you know what this means?
This means that it will very likely trigger an economic crisis, and then the economy of Hong Kong Island will be finished! "
"Don't worry, don't ask for advice. Aren't we trying to find a way to actively solve the problem? Even if we don't care about the life and death of the hostages, storming in by force may not solve the problem? Do you think so?" The man glanced at him and said in a calm tone. .
Advisor Liu barely suppressed his impetuous and somewhat panicked mood: "Inspector He, the British Empire never gives the title of aerial terrorist!"
"This is Hong Kong Island!"
"He Shangsheng!" Consultant Liu yelled, veins popping up on his forehead.
He Shangsheng picked his ears calmly: "Consultant Liu, you don't need to be so loud, I can hear you! Also, don't forget your identity. This case is handled by our police. As the owner of the case, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority will provide all the information." After getting the information and related conveniences, you just need to wait quietly for the results! There is no need to be worried here, don’t you think so? Consultant Liu! "
Consultant Liu glared at He Shangsheng, but He Shangsheng didn't take it seriously at all.
He turned to look at Huang Qifa, his voice low and filled with anger: "Superintendent Huang, is this your attitude?"
"That's not true!" Superintendent Huang shrank his neck and quickly denied: "Aren't we solving the problem? Consultant Liu, don't be too anxious. These guys are obviously very troublesome. We need to consider the overall situation and the overall situation! "
"Okay! Very good! Since you have this attitude, I won't talk nonsense to you here. I will report it to the boss with full authority, and let your first brother give the order when the time comes. Let's see how you consider the overall situation!"
Consultant Liu said harsh words, turned around and left.
Huang Qifa hurriedly followed up and urged him to stay: "Consultant Liu, counselor Liu, don't be impulsive. There is no need to alarm the higher-ups about this matter. We can solve it ourselves, counselor Liu? Counselor Liu?"
Huang Qifa turned around, glared at He Shangsheng fiercely, and said angrily: "What are you doing? They are the Monetary Authority, and above it is the Ministry of Finance. They are in charge of our food, clothing, housing, transportation, food, drink, and toilet. If next year's financial allocation is because of you, Because of the slightest loss, do you believe that the following group of people can eat up all of you? Why are you messing with him when you have nothing to do!"
"Okay, okay! Do you need to be so nervous? He is just a consultant. If there are a lot of people like this in the Supervision Bureau, they will be thrown out as cannon fodder. There is no need to take it seriously!"
He Shangsheng didn't care at all. He held the remote control in his hand and stared at the masked man's speech on the TV.
"On the contrary, I feel that the purpose of these guys is far from being as simple as they say!"
