Due to the comradeship relationship between Qi Jingsheng and Jiang Hu, the Jiang brothers quickly accepted them.
As the eldest brother of the "Jiang Brothers", Jiang Long is a tall, thin, and elegant young man wearing glasses.
He usually likes to wear suits the most, and his arched jaw is engraved with cunning. He is also the think tank among the Jiang brothers, with excellent observation and judgment.
However, Jiang Long conducted an investigation in advance and determined that he did not doubt Li Xiangdong and others after being caught in the Heigitang shootout.
Coupled with the fact that Qi Jingsheng and Jiang Hu had a well-informed comrade-in-arms relationship, the two parties got along very harmoniously. And when the Jiang brothers need to hire people to do things, no one can be more suitable than Li Xiangdong and the other three.
In the afternoon of that day, four people, Wan Dada and Li Xiangdong, all moved to a rental house in Jianglong in Kowloon District.
Jiang Long also completely pulled out the action plan.
They want to snatch the car!
...
"They actually want to snatch the car that was released!"
Zhuang Shikai received the information, and a flash of shock flashed across his expression.
Although car robberies often occur in Hong Kong movies, that was after the 1980s.
According to the information he has obtained so far, there has not been a single payment vehicle robbery case in Hong Kong.
The main methods of committing crimes by the provincial and Hong Kong flag soldiers are robbery of gold shops, kidnapping for ransom, and fraud by gangsters.
Dare to rob the payment vehicle now, which can be said to be a precedent.
No wonder they said they were going to do something big, and it seemed like it was indeed a big thing!
"Continue to wait for information." Zhuang Shikai held a ball of paper and did not act rashly, but was prepared to wait for more detailed information.
It is strange that the Jiang brothers, perhaps because of the failure of their last operation, were determined to solve a major case, but they actually knew how to stay ahead of the times.
Unfortunately, there was a mole in their midst, and the operation was doomed to fail. Moreover, the four of them will become the worst and weakest group of criminal gangs in the history of Hong Kong Island in robbing cars for payment. Many rising stars are much more powerful than them.
Failure is failure, this innovative spirit is very dedicated.
Day by day, the time, location, and route of the robbery were transmitted back to the command room one by one.
...
Day of action.
The target was hiding in an apartment building opposite the rental house, a high-rise apartment.
Zhuang Shikai stood in front of a wall, holding a wooden stick and pointing at several drawings and a row of photos on the wall.
"The Jiang brothers are expected to hijack an HSBC bank loan vehicle at seven o'clock in the evening on the 18th."
"This payment vehicle is a vehicle used by the central headquarters to escort commonly used funds to the Kowloon subdivision to replenish funds."
"There is a sum of three million in it, and it is customary to deploy six bankers to form a security team."
The small apartment temporarily rented to monitor the target has an ordinary environment. It is a blessing to have a toilet big enough for No. 20 people to sit in. How nice to have drawings and photos on the wall! What more writing board do you need!
And the payment car hijacked by the Jiang brothers was not a high-end car that rhymed with some important national treasure or financial securities. It’s just a fixed payment for transportation at a fixed time every week, using fixed personnel, using fixed vehicles, taking unfixed routes.
That is, the batch of cash that the headquarters escorts to the branch banks every week and allows the branch banks to indicate their choices to customers.
Therefore, the Jiang brothers can have a detailed understanding of the car to be sold and make targeted plans.
In fact, they don't need a very careful plan. They just need to prepare the car to run away, the place to hide the money, and wait at the second intersection in front of the branch bank, where the escort vehicle will definitely appear.
The detectives sat down and listened carefully, slightly shocked by the criminal's robbery plan.
Zhuang Shikai continued: "I have already said hello to the security director of HSBC Bank, and the payment vehicle will be replaced by our people."
"Cai Yuanqi, you bring five people into the car to do some work!"
As soon as Zhuang Shikai finished speaking, Cai Yuanqi immediately stood up and responded: "Yes! Detective!"
"Bodhisattva Yao, take five of you to take charge of perimeter security."
Huang Weiyao looked solemn and stood at attention with secret joy in his heart and shouted: "Yes! Detective!"
"The remaining brothers will form a raid team with me to monitor the criminals before they take action, and immediately enter the scene to arrest them when they do!" Zhuang Shikai's order can be regarded as knowing people well and being able to effectively bring out the characteristics of the two Sha Zhans, and personally take charge of them. charge.
Of course, it would be impossible for him to pretend to be a bank security team and do the most dangerous thing on the payment vehicle. Be majestic when you should be majestic, and still be a big boss when you need to be majestic.
After the brothers received the mission, Zhuang Shikai continued to point at the photo on the wall with a wooden stick and said: "Jiang Long, Jiang Hu, Jiang Yong, and Jiang Yi, these four are criminals and there is no need to be soft."
"Li Xiangdong, Wan Dada, Guo Xuejun, and Qi Jingsheng, these four are our informants. Pay attention to ensure their safety."
"When you take action, they should support you, and it will be more convenient for you then."
Cai Yuanqi and Huang Weiyao looked at each other and said to themselves: "Damn it, the detective just arranged for the informant?"
"They actually had as many informants as criminals. This group of criminals must be so pitiful."
Of course, in terms of tracking, Zhuang Shikai has already asked the plainclothes agents responsible for surveillance to put on various types of work clothes every day and use different identities and methods to disguise themselves. Including monitoring vehicles and changing license plates every day! Change location!
These small criminal investigation techniques may not seem clever, but now they are already very targeted techniques.
It’s not that no one understands it, it’s just that few people use it, and not many people understand it.
In addition, criminals have not undergone extensive training in movies and TV series.
The criminals had poor counter-investigation awareness and could not detect Zhuang Shikai's senior command.
Therefore, the Causeway Bay plainclothes were able to receive intelligence every time from the trash can downstairs of the rental house. Coupled with the informant's cleverness, this operation was absolutely sure of success.
After Zhuang Shikai explained the details of the operation, he waved his hand and shouted: "The meeting is dismissed."
The brothers continued to go downstairs to perform surveillance missions and mourned for the criminals: "It's bad luck for you if you run into Inspector Zhuang!"
...
At noon the next day, a group of eight people each carried a black backpack and walked out of the narrow iron gate of the building.
Wan Dada held the car key in his hand and walked to a van first. After unlocking the car, he got into the driver's seat.
He was obviously arranged as a coachman by the Jiang brothers, and Li Xiangdong and others were the real tough guys used to rob.
"Crash." Jiang Long opened the door of the van and led Jiang Hu, Jiang Yong, Li Xiangdong and others into the carriage.
"Crash." The compartment door was quickly closed again, and the silver-gray van drove out of the street.
"The sparrow is out of the cage," Zhuang Shikai tapped the window frame three times and raised his hand to make a gesture to the rearview mirror. The car he was riding in immediately followed the silver-gray van of the Jiang brothers. The cars of the remaining three groups of brothers also followed closely, following the formation of 112.
One is in front of the target vehicle, one is behind the target vehicle, and two vehicles are two hundred meters behind, acting as alternate cover vehicles at any time.
