Chapter 9: Aftershocks
The sky was twilight, Zhang Lexing walked on the street, the surroundings were quiet, there was no one in sight, only empty cars parked on both sides of the road. Rounding the corner, there seemed to be a car accident in the distance, and a Mercedes-Benz rushed into the shop on the side of the road, only the back half was still exposed, white mist gushing out along the cracks in the wall, and strangely no one appeared.
The fog slowly thickened, and the road ahead gradually lost its track. A bone-chilling cold air came out of the thick fog, Zhang Lexing couldn't help but shiver, and there was an inexplicable fear in his heart, as if a fierce beast would pounce out of the fog soon. Zhang Lexing, who was in a panicked mood, turned around and ran, but the fog seemed to have spirituality, chasing closely behind him, and gradually the cold behind him became more and more intense.
A little rain slowly drifted in the air, but it gave Zhang Lexing a pleasant feeling on his body, the mist began to slowly dissipate, and the bone-chilling feeling suddenly disappeared. The rain began to get heavier, and a bank with an open door appeared not far ahead, so Zhang Lexing had to run towards the gate in order to avoid the rain.
Just when Zhang Lexing was about to arrive at the gate, a vague figure appeared at the gate, and a mountain knife appeared in his hand. Zhang Lexing was cold, his steps were staggering, and the weather was also lively at this time, and it turned into a torrential rain in an instant. Zhang Lexing tried to move backwards, and the figure slowly approached. Suddenly, the figure jumped up at an accelerated pace, raised his knife over his head, and slashed down like that, and a white light that pierced the sky flashed, illuminating the figure's gloomy face......
"Ahh Zhang Lexing shouted in fright, and suddenly woke up, it turned out to be just a dream of Nan Ke.
Zhang Lexing found himself lying on a comfortable single bed covered with a thin quilt of print. Through the window on one side, you can see the clear sky outside, there are two single sofas by the wall by the window, and a strange man sits on the sofa against the wall, his eyes scanning vigilantly, * leaning against the sofa by the window, one hand supporting his chin, as if he has fallen asleep. Maybe Zhang Lexing's shout just now just appeared in a dream, and the two didn't notice that Zhang Lexing woke up.
His head hurt slightly, and Zhang Lexing rubbed it gently, while thinking back to the day when the rain was pouring in. Gradually, Zhang Lexing remembered the broken glass of the bank gate that day, the blood-stained mountain knife, the fall of Rod and Li Sheng, and the black umbrella that pierced the sky full of water vapor, and then Zhang Lexing seemed to see a face shaking in front of him before he completely fainted, and his nose seemed to smell a fragrance with a faint smell of medicine, and then he couldn't remember anything, and he didn't even know how to get to bed here.
There was a burst of soreness on his body, probably because he had been lying down for too long, Zhang Lexing sat up and prepared to get out of bed and move. As soon as she sat up, her hand accidentally knocked off the cup on the bedside table, and the sound of "dangchang" woke her asleep*, she let go of the hand on her chin and hurried to the bed.
"Boss, you're awake!" *Said in surprise.
"Well, what time is it today?" There is no wall calendar in the room, and there is no such feature-rich mobile phone to read, but Zhang Lexing woke up for so long that he still hasn't figured out how long he has been asleep.
"Boss, today is the 21st." * replied.
"Ah, didn't I sleep for three days?" Zhang Lexing was very surprised.
"Yes, boss, we all freaked out when we heard that you fainted at the scene of the robbery, but fortunately it's okay now." * patted his chest and rejoiced, and then said: "Boss, you haven't eaten for a few days, do you want to eat some white porridge first, it hasn't been long since you called, it should still be hot." ”
Listening to *, Zhang Lexing really felt that his stomach was protesting fiercely, so he nodded at her.
* Carefully scooped out a small bowl of white porridge from the thermos pot, and was about to hand it to Zhang Lexing, when he suddenly changed his mind and said, "Boss, you just woke up, or I will feed you." ”
Zhang Lexing also felt that his hands were still a little sore, and if he really wanted to eat it himself, it would be embarrassing to make a porridge and turn over the bowl, so he agreed to push the boat down the river.
* Put down the porridge bowl, shake the head of the bed, put the pillow on the cushion, let Zhang Lexing recline on the bed and sit down, then pick up the porridge bowl again, scoop up a spoonful of porridge with a spoon, gently remove the heat with his mouth, and then carefully reach into Zhang Lexing's mouth.
You don't have to do it yourself, there is a beautiful assistant to help you bring the porridge to your mouth, which is really a rare treat if it is not in the hospital. To be honest, except for when he was a child, Zhang Lexing really rarely experienced this kind of treatment, for so many years, that is, when he first went to the United States, he once enjoyed Yang Xinxin's careful care because of a cold, and at that time the specifications were slightly higher than the current specifications.
Zhang Lexing wiped out the porridge in the bowl spoonful by spoonful, and introduced the situation these days while feeding. Listening to the narration of *, Zhang Lexing knew that his luck was really bad that day, which bank was not good to go to, but he picked a robbery, and it happened to hit the robber when he finished work. When the first batch of police arrived, the robbers had not had time to evacuate, and there was a fierce exchange of fire between the two sides, because the robbers were relatively fierce (three AUG assault rifles, two M16A2, and the conclusion of the analysis through the bullet casings left at the scene and the description of the people at the scene), not only did the police at the scene not raise their heads at all, but also caused heavy casualties to the police. When a large number of reinforcements arrived, due to the heavy rain, there were almost no useful clues except for a single section in one place, but some different bullet casings and some blood stains were found at the parking place of the box car used by the robbers to escape, so it was suspected that some of the robbers might have been injured. After the scene was counted, five police officers were killed and one was injured, two deceased people with guns were found near the entrance of the bank, two bank guards who tried to resist in the bank were killed, and the robbers robbed a total of 8 million Hong Kong dollars and 4 million US dollars in cash, with a total amount of more than 30 million Hong Kong dollars.
When the police contacted Rod and Li Sheng's documents, she was stupid on the spot, and the executives of Andatai Security Company were also shocked when they heard the news, and hurriedly sent people around to find Zhang Lexing's news. Just when the entire Oriental Industrial Group was busy, a phone call from Renai Hospital finally reassured them a little, it turned out that Zhang Lexing didn't know who sent him to the hospital, fortunately he still had an address book, otherwise he didn't know when he would be able to get in touch. A large group of people rushed to the hospital with an urgent roar, and Andatai Security Company sent a team of up to 20 people to be responsible for on-site security work.
When * arrived, the doctor had already completed a routine examination for Zhang Lexing. The doctor told *: "The patient's body is fine, but he is frightened, and he may have been tired recently, so he needs to rest, and he will be fine when he wakes up", and he was slightly relieved to hear that his boss was fine. However, when * saw the noisy environment of the ordinary ward, he immediately found a hospital to change the ward, and Zhang Lexing was transferred from the ordinary ward where three people lived to the luxury ward for a single person.
After arranging the strictest security measures imaginable for Zhang Lexing, Andatai Security Company did not stop there, the high-level security work personally ordered by his boss actually became like this, and even the protected target was almost killed by others, which is simply a great humiliation, Andatai Security Company will certainly not give up easily, and immediately launched its own power to search for Hong Kong, but the robbers disappeared as if they fell from the sky and evaporated from the world, and the bullet casings left at the scene showed that the robbers used NATO-standard guns, Coupled with some descriptions of the on-site personnel, the senior management of Andatai Security Company speculated that the robbers were likely to be retired soldiers, but they could not find more clues.
On the other side, the police were even more busy, all vacations were canceled, there were two-thirds more patrols on the street than usual, the guys of O-Kee, CID and the Serious Crime Unit were either searching for clues on their own or through their own informants, and colleagues from the Ordnance Identification Bureau and the Criminal Intelligence Bureau were almost sleepless to investigate physical evidence and analyze clues. There is no way that this time the matter is too serious, the amount of bank robbery is not small, and the firepower of the bandits' guns is very strong, plus the big boss of the Oriental Industrial Group was actually injured and hospitalized, as a result, the rich people in Hong Kong have blown up their nests, whether they have a relationship with Zhang Lexing or not, they have come forward to accuse the police of doing things unfavorably, resulting in the deterioration of public security in Hong Kong, and even the "first brother" of the police is inevitably sometimes blocked and scolded by individual rich people, and it is conceivable that the people below are even worse. But the strange thing is that in such a big battle, it is impossible to find the slightest clue about the robbers.
During Zhang Lexing's sleep, many people came to visit, including Mr. Yang, famous local tycoons in Hong Kong, and senior executives of companies under Oriental Industrial Group, etc., who sent many gifts, so that they had to temporarily find a room as a storage room.
……
"It's the 21st today, how is my preparation to return home?" Zhang Lexing suddenly remembered that the original time to return to China had passed, and asked hurriedly.
"The relevant procedures have been completed, the plane ticket has been changed, and you can leave at any time when you are rested, boss." * replied.
Zhang Lexing remembered the figure of rescuing himself on that rainy day, and asked, "Did the person who saved me that day figure out who it was?" ”
"There's no news on this yet, but we suspect that the person who sent you to the hospital should be the same person, but it just so happens that the hospital is busy, and no one remembers what that person looks like. Boss, did you see people clearly at that time? * replied after a moment's thought.
It's a pity that Zhang Lexing didn't see it clearly, the rainstorm, lightning and his mood were too nervous, except for remembering the black umbrella, he didn't even see what clothes the person was wearing. In addition, Zhang Lexing only remembered the unclear face and the faint fragrance with the smell of medicine at the end, but whether it was a hallucination when he was in a coma, or real, Zhang Lexing himself was not too sure. Since he couldn't think of more clues, although Zhang Lexing was a little unwilling, he could only let it go, looking forward to seeing him again in the future.
Two days later, Zhang Lexing, who was back prepared, boarded a Dragonair flight to Beijing, and as he got farther and farther away from the incident, his mood gradually relaxed. In fact, this time Zhang Lexing wanted to personally build the creative workshop, mainly to make up for some of his original regrets, and by the way, to experience the feeling of starting a business again, so he tried his best to do a lot of things within his ability, but he didn't expect to encounter this situation at the beginning, and it seems that he needs to review it in the future. Soon after lunch, the plane had already arrived over Beijing International Airport, and Zhang Lexing couldn't help but shout in his heart: "I'm finally back again!" ”
