Chapter 396: Who's Coming?
Although Xiao Yao once said on the phone that the police should not be involved in the kidnapping case, neither Xiao Yao nor the robbers believed that the police would not know about the ransom.
If you want the police to remove the wanted warrants of the robbers, you have to show the video taken by Xiao Yao to the police. The robbers couldn't have kidnapped Xiao Yao just to get the police to remove the wanted warrant. Xiao Yao was released after the wanted warrant was withdrawn? This is illogical. In order to give the police a reasonable reason to withdraw the wanted warrant, they had to tell the police about the kidnapping for extortion. Zhao Rui is not brainless, acting according to every word on Xiao Yao's phone. If you want to rescue Xiao Yao, you must still rely on the power of the police. So when Xiao Yao's video was sent to the American police, Xiao's family told the American police about the ransom.
Now that the police know about the ransom, they will naturally not sit idly by. At this time, the handover of the ransom has been completed. The entire process of delivering the ransom was completed under the supervision of the police. Xiao Siqi and his wife, Zhao Rui and Zhou Zhihao had left and returned to the hotel after paying the ransom to wait for news from the robbers, and the police successfully followed several robbers who took the ransom.
In the robbery at the press conference, the robbers used signal jammers, apparently with a certain amount of electronic knowledge, and the police did not dare to install signal transmitters in cash or bags containing cash for tracking, and could only rely on manpower and traffic cameras in the city to track them with the naked eye.
Mary was able to escape from the police and escape to Mexico, apparently also with anti-reconnaissance and anti-tracking capabilities.
Central Park is located in the heart of bustling Manhattan, and almost all the roads outside the park are heavily trafficked. Taking advantage of the time difference between traffic lights at several intersections, the vehicles in which the robbers were riding successfully shook off the detectives who were chasing in ordinary private cars.
As for the traffic cameras on the road and the police helicopters at a certain height overhead, the robbers' vehicles quickly slipped into an indoor parking lot after they got rid of the agents who were driving behind them.
There are also surveillance cameras in the parking lot, but when Alan Howl, the person in charge of this single case, asked the technicians to call up the surveillance footage in the parking lot, he found that there were five or six cameras in the parking lot that were all broken, and there was no picture at all. I contacted the person in charge of the parking lot and asked, and learned that they only found out that several cameras in the parking lot were broken this morning, and they were preparing to arrange someone to fix it today. Alan Hal immediately decided that this was most likely the robbers' work on the stealth last night, and that they had already planned to change cars in this parking lot.
There are a total of four entrances and exits in this parking lot, and almost every one of them has vehicles entering and leaving every minute. There are already a lot of agents who have been dumped on the road and rushed to the parking lot, but when they arrive, will they be able to follow the group of robbers? The agents on the road have been thrown away temporarily, the helicopter cannot see the parking lot, the camera in the parking lot is broken, God knows what kind of car the robbers will change to leave, how can this be tracked?
Just when Alan Hal couldn't help but scold his mother, Xiao Yao's call came.
"Yang, oh my God, where are you now, are you safe?" Hearing Xiao Yao's voice, Alan Hal seemed to hear the sound of heaven, and said excitedly, "Please tell me that you have escaped!"
"I'm fine now! I've escaped from my detainees, and my life is not in danger for the time being!" Xiao Yao asked, "How are you doing over there? What happened to the robbers who took the ransom? Did they get the ransom? Are they still under your surveillance?"
"They've got the ransom and we're tracking it, but we're restricting our actions for your safety, and they're cunning and prepared, and we're about to lose it. Alan Hare replied truthfully.
"I'm not in danger of my life now, so you can rest assured that you can arrest people!" Xiao Yao hurriedly said, "You must not let them run away with my family's 10 million!"
10 million US dollars! Xiao Yao is reluctant to use his family's money when he prepares to make a movie, but plans to engage in crowdfunding, if Mary and the others run away with their own 10 million US dollars, Xiao Yao will die of heartache!
"Of course!" Alan Har said, "as long as we know you're safe, we can let it go!"
"Immediately notify the person in charge of the parking lot and ask him to seal all the four entrances and exits of the parking lot for me, and not a single car will be allowed to leave! Let our commandos and the commandos of the New York Police Department all go to the parking lot to support! Tell the agents on the road that after arriving at the parking lot, first help the people in the parking lot block the entrances and exits to prevent the robbers from breaking out, and when a large number of police officers arrive, give me an inch of search!" Alan Hal removed his mobile phone and turned to his subordinates beside him and commanded.
"Yes!" replied the agent in charge of communications, and immediately directed the actions of the various departments as Alan Hal had ordered.
"Jan, where are you now?" After instructing his men, Alan Hal turned back to Xiao Yaodao.
"I'm still in the place where I was caught. Xiao Yao said, "It's very remote and desolate here, I don't have a means of transportation, I can't leave, you can quickly send someone to pick me up!" The address is on the west side of New York City, go north along Highway 16, walk another ten miles or so after passing the intersection with Highway 95, then turn northwest There is a small road, enter the path and walk about eight miles There is an abandoned warehouse, I am here now! There are three robbers here, and they have not left for the time being. If you're fast, you might even catch three robbers here. ”
"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to pick you up right away!" Alan Hal said immediately, "You'll see me soon, and before you do that, you must pay attention to safety and protect yourself!"
"Okay, I'll wait for you!" Xiao Yao said.
"Send me a commando team to the west. After hanging up the phone, Alan Hal instructed his subordinates, "We will also go west now, meet the commando team on the road, and I will personally lead the team to save people!" Alan Hal is not in the FBI New York office, but in a communications command vehicle.
Hanging up Alan Hall's phone, Xiao Yao's heart was settled. At this time, Xiao Yao should have found a safe place to hide, and then waited for the police to pick him up. But there was no place to hide except for a warehouse around, and Xiao Yao was also a little curious about what the three guys in the warehouse were doing now. So Xiao Yao set the phone to vibrate mode, and after putting it close to him, he reached out and climbed the outer wall of the warehouse, and began to climb to the top of the warehouse.
The warehouse where Xiao Yao was imprisoned had no windows, and the four walls were smooth and flat, but the entire warehouse was not windowless, smooth and flat. There are not only windows on the side wall of the warehouse where Xiao Yao is located, but also some things such as drainage pipes, and with his usual parkour skills, Xiao Yao climbed to the top of the warehouse very smoothly. Moving to the position of a skylight on the top of the warehouse, Xiao Yao reached out and wiped the dust accumulated on the skylight glass, and carefully stretched out half of his head to look inside the warehouse.
At the same time, Alan Howl, who was on the road to meet the commando team, received a not-so-good news. On the other side of the parking lot, a black SUV broke the barricade before the supporting commandos and police officers, and ran away. In order to prevent the robbers from distracting themselves and deliberately attracting the attention of the police, two of the four agents who rushed to the exit followed the SUV, leaving two security guards who helped the parking lot to continue blocking the vehicles behind.
Alan Howl, who received the report from his subordinates, frowned, did not immediately give new instructions, took out his mobile phone and called back the call from Xiao Yao just now.
Xiao Yao, who stretched out half of his head and secretly watched the confrontation and gunfight between the three people in the warehouse through the skylight glass, felt the vibration of the mobile phone on his body, immediately retracted his head, lay flat on the roof of the warehouse, and picked up the phone.
"Jan, I'm Howl!" Alan Howl, "are you okay now?"
"Safe for now. Xiao Yao whispered.
"Okay," Alan Hal knew that Xiao Yao should be hiding at this time, and it was not strange for him to speak so quietly, and he lowered his voice and asked, "I need you to provide me with some information." ”
"I feel like I've told you everything I need to tell you, and I don't know what I'm missing. Xiao Yao whispered, "Let's do this, what else do you want to know?"
"Can you tell me that there is any contact between the robbers who are guarding you in the warehouse and the robbers who came out to get the ransom?
"Probably not," Xiao Yao glanced sideways and looked down again, and then saw Walter hiding at the desk take out the phone and put it to his ear, so he hurriedly said, "Wait, there's a guy answering the phone." ”
"It's supposed to be the ransom robber who found out that we blocked the exit of the parking lot and guessed that something should be wrong with you. Alan Haldaw, "Can you tell me how you escaped?"
"No problem. Xiao Yao agreed, and briefly told him how he had escaped.
"You're amazing!" After listening to Xiao Yao's story, Alan Hal didn't have time to sigh, just praised it in a hurry, and then asked, "You mean that not only do you have no transportation over there, but the three robbers also have no vehicles to leave, right?"
"Yes. Xiao Yao said. He had already seen that there were no vehicles parked either inside the warehouse or in front of the warehouse.
"I see. Alan Howl, "Now the ransom-paying robbers may have broken out of our encirclement. Since the three people in the warehouse don't have a car, they shouldn't have found another place to meet, and the ransom-paying robbers should go back to pick them up. There's no one around, so it's just right for us to surround and arrest!"
"Break out of the encirclement?" Xiao Yao was a little speechless, but this was not the time for him to taunt Alan Howl, so he continued to ask, "You want to wipe them all out here, do you need me to do anything?"
"No, you just need to protect yourself!" Alan Hardau, "We'll let the ransom robbers go back to the warehouse." Hide yourself, not only from the people who came out of the warehouse to find you, but also from those who came back to find you on the road!"
"Understood, I won't let them find out about me!" Xiao Yao replied.
This warehouse is not small in size, and the top is not a dome building with a high middle and a low surrounding, but a flat one. Because of the line of sight, as long as he lies in the center of the warehouse roof, the person standing on the ground will not be able to find him. For Alan Hall's request, Xiao Yao thinks it is quite easy to do.
"Okay!" Alan Hal hung up the phone and instructed his men, "Have the commando cars turn off their sirens and lights, and our command cars turn off as well." ”
"Why, sir, aren't we in a hurry to save people now?" asked his subordinate a little strangely.
FBI vehicles are not marked on the outside, and as long as they don't turn on their police lights and sirens, they look no different from ordinary vehicles. And now they are rushing to save people, and only by turning on the sirens and police lights can they get other vehicles to give way, so that they can move as fast as possible. Alan Hal was talking to Xiao Yao quietly, and the subordinate still had a communication headset on one ear, obviously not hearing the content of Alan Hal and Xiao Yao's conversation.
"Inform all units that there is a change in plans and that I am going to redeploy. Alan Hal directly answered his subordinates' questions, but directly ordered, "The search task over there in the parking lot is entrusted to the New York Police Department, leave two assault teams to assist them, and the rest of the people rush to the west of the city as fast as possible, and turn off the sirens and lights on the road! Inform the detective who followed the SUV not to follow too closely, it is best to make the other party think that they are lost, even if they are really lost." Inform the helicopters to pay close attention to the road to the west of the city, especially Route 16, and pay attention to the altitude so that they do not be spotted by the robbers..."
When Alan Hal was deploying the mission, the four robbers in the SUV also had some minor arguments. After talking to Walter on the phone, Dad told the rest of the car what Walter had told him, and then began to accuse José and his Mexicans of not being well. Jose was also very angry, and immediately argued with his father on the grounds that Walter shot Garcia first.
Mary and Richard were not interested in the conflict between the two groups, they were concerned about Xiao Yao's escape.
"Now that the Huaxia kid has escaped, I think the warehouse is no longer safe, shouldn't we go back again?" said Richard.
"I'm not going to leave my brother behind. Jose immediately said, "Even if that kid escapes from the three of them, but there are no people for miles around, and he doesn't have a mobile phone on him, how can he inform the police of the location of the warehouse?"
"Then why did the police suddenly lock off the parking lot?" asked Richard, tilting his head.
"Didn't the security guard in the parking lot say it was because there was a theft in the parking lot?" said Jose.
"You believe it?" said Richard, scoffing.
"Why don't you believe it?" said Jose, "if the police really want to do it, it's not the parking lot security who will stop us, and we will rush out so easily?"
"I agree with Walter, you are idiots. Richard shook his head, turned to Mary, who was driving, and said, "Mary, let's not go back." Don't the three of them have telephones? After we find a new base, we will call them to tell them to leave the warehouse and find them ourselves!"
"There's no car over there, and the three of them already have gunshot wounds on their bodies, how can they leave?" Just as Jose didn't want to give up his brother, Dad didn't want to easily give up his partner who had worked with him for more than ten years.
"What do you say, Mary?" asked Mary.
"There is no one around that place, and even if that Huaxia kid escapes, he won't be able to go far, maybe we can get him back. Before Mary could reply, Daddy added.
"Let's go back!" it may have been Daddy's last words that worked, and Mary groaned, snorted, and turned to the west of the city. Three against one, it's useless for Richard to object.
"I heard the sound of the car engine, who is coming?" Xiao Yao, who was lying on the roof of the warehouse, heard the sound of the car, took out the phone and dialed Alan Hall, and asked in a low voice, "Is it your people who have arrived or Mary and they are back?"
