Glass sat in his office cursing and getting angry, and the police officer who reported the progress of the case to him wisely closed his mouth and stood silently. He also knew that such a bad shootout in New York had caused great distress and pressure to Glass.

Call......

After a curse, Glass seemed to have a breath in his heart, vented well, and regained his composure. In fact, he really can't blame Interpol for not issuing a notice in advance, after all, those who enter the United States are suspected members of the Heyshand Party, not confirmed, and there is no evidence of the other party's exact illegal activities.

Then.

There was another knock on the door of Director Glass's office, and an older policeman came in, saying, "Director, there is a fax from Interpol, confirming that seven of the robbers are suspected members of the Hey Hand Party that they have been closely watching. And Interpol will send five police officers to participate in the next investigation. ”

"Well, it doesn't matter if Interpol joins, it involves the transnational crimes of the Heyshou, maybe they will have more intelligence information."

Glass also understands that the fight against transnational crime is obviously a little inadequate with just one of his municipal police stations. They need Interpol's help!

"Uh...... Chief, there is a group of reporters blocking the entrance of the police station, all waiting for your briefing. The older policeman reminded again.

Reporter!

Glass couldn't help but curse, "The lawyer is gone, and the reporter is here again!" It's really unlucky...... but he also knows that he really can't ignore that group of reporters, otherwise, if they go back and fabricate the case at will and cause public panic, then he will really cry to death.

……

Dressing up a little, Glass left the office, intending to deal with the group of reporters.

"Fellow journalists, don't worry. Next. I will explain in detail the huge shootout that took place this afternoon! Glass said, and then narrated the case, "According to the current situation, this is a kidnapping case carefully planned by a transnational criminal organization, and the target is the 'Tang' of Phoenix Investment Group, and Tang recently broke the news in an interview with Fortune magazine that he is worth $12 billion, which caused a criminal organization to covet it." A fierce shootout broke out in the afternoon, it was Don's bodyguards and robbers, and later the police arrived at the scene. Also join the shootout. In the shootout, two policemen were killed and 19 were injured; Twenty-eight robbers were killed, 37 were captured, and at least six robbers are still at large...... Further explanations will be made after the investigation is clear. ”

Wow.

Tang Bao was actually related to the fierce shootout that broke out in the afternoon, and the reporters suddenly let out a sound of surprise, and then showed a look of surprise.

"Director Largs, this kidnapper is targeting Don, so how is Tang's situation?" A reporter from the Wall Street Journal stepped forward and asked.

"Hmm. Don was in a safe place. He is surrounded by a group of wonderful and awesome personal bodyguards...... The robbers did not get any bargain in their hands. "Of course, we will contact and communicate with Don, and if necessary, we will send police officers to protect him." The purpose of this transnational criminal organization is very clear. It's to kidnap and blackmail Don! As long as Don stays in the NYPD's area of responsibility, we won't let this happen. ”

Personal bodyguards?

The reporters were all stunned, and they all said secretly, "Isn't there always only one personal assistant by Tang's side." Where did the bodyguards come from? "Tang Bao is a hot figure in economic news, and the people and things around him are very concerned by reporters. They've always found bodyguards.

But.

I thought about it a little more. It is also a very common thing for a billionaire like Tang Bao to have a personal bodyguard by his side, so it's not surprising.

"I understand that the police arrived at the scene nearly fifteen minutes after the shootout broke out, may I ask, does Director Glass think this reaction speed is acceptable?" Another reporter stood up and asked. "Also, in the battle with the kidnappers, more than 20 police officers were killed and wounded. This shows the bravery of the New York police, but such a combat performance is hardly gratifying. Is it related to a lack of training, or is it just an accident? ”

"Under normal circumstances, about five to seven minutes after receiving the police, the police can arrive near the scene of the crime. But in this kidnapping case, the robbers were carefully planned, blocking and destroying the nearby road conditions in advance, and creating several traffic accidents to prevent the police from going to the police. Even the police car near the scene of the crime was attacked! ”

Then.

"On the second question, I would like to emphasize that the officers who participated in this operation were very brave and perfect, and they deserve to be commended. At that time, the robbers were armed with submachine guns, rifles, grenades, explosives and other high-powered weapons, and we were wearing pistols...... It can be said that we are not facing a simple group of kidnappers, but more like a group of terrorists. ”

"Does Director Largs have any more information about this transnational criminal organization?"

"It's inconvenient to disclose." Largs shook his head and said, out of some concerns, Largs did not name the group as the Heyhand, nor did he reveal that the Heyshout family in the United States was also involved in the case. Of course, he didn't dare to casually state that they suspected that Tang Bao had an inexplicable relationship with the Hey Hand Party.

"What measures are there against the robbers who are still at large?"

"Because the robbers are wearing black scarves, it will be difficult to find them. But will not give up the pursuit...... We hope that everyone will notify us if they find suspicious behavior, and we will give a reward of 100,000 US dollars to those who provide valid clues. Director Glass took the opportunity to say.

In fact.

He knew very well in his heart that there was very little hope of catching the escaped robbers again. Taking advantage of this to issue a bounty is just a pure demonstration of the determination of the NYPD.

"The transnational criminal organization carefully planned to kidnap Tang, and if it failed this time, will it attack Tang again? In addition, will it target other rich people? ”

"This possibility is not ruled out, and we will communicate with Don and provide protection. At the same time, it also reminds other wealthy people to pay attention to travel safety recently! Rags replied.

……

The briefing ended, and soon after, news reports were on television, newspapers, and radio.

"The world's third richest man, 'Don', attracted the covetousness of transnational criminal organizations and was almost kidnapped! At about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Tang encountered robbers while passing through a certain avenue, and a fierce shootout broke out at the scene, resulting in the death of 28 bandits and two police officers. Dozens were injured, 37 bandits were arrested, and six more absconded ......" - NBC broadcast.

"Tang was almost kidnapped on his way to the Phoenix Investment Group this afternoon, and it is reported that it was a kidnapping case orchestrated by a transnational criminal organization." -- ABC TV.

Not long ago, Fortune magazine exposed that Tang's worth is conservatively estimated to be as high as $12 billion, ranking third in the world. This brought endless scenery and influence to Don, but it also caused trouble. There was a kidnapping against Don this afternoon! —Los Angeles Times.

"Don's mysterious team of personal bodyguards, it is reported that Tang was in danger in this well-planned kidnapping case, and the personal bodyguards contributed a lot. But so far no one knows the information of Don's personal bodyguard. I haven't even seen it. The degree of mystery is far greater than that of the bodyguards of the President of the United States...... Because everyone knows that the guy who follows the president all day long is the president's bodyguard, but there is only one personal assistant who follows Tang, and the personal bodyguard is still 'invisible'! —The Washington Post.

"Wealthy people who are planning to travel recently should be careful not to leave the sight of their bodyguards. Go down today, the 'stock god Tang' was almost kidnapped! -- U.S. News.

"It has been learned that in the kidnapping of Tang by a transnational criminal organization, more than 60 members and an unknown number of assistants were dispatched, and more than 50 vehicles of various kinds were mobilized. The weapons used include submachine guns, assault rifles, sniper rifles, pistols, grenades, explosives, and many more. During the fierce battle of more than 10 minutes, nearly 7,000 rounds of ammunition and more than 50 grenades were fired, and more than 30 vehicles were damaged...... There was a direct exchange of fire with the police, resulting in the deaths of two police officers. Nearly twenty people were injured. The fierce gunfight on the scene is no less than a skirmish! Of course, the most curious thing is the rampant nature of this transnational criminal organization, as if it were asking the U.S. government to declare war. -- USA Today.

……

……

At night. It's past eight o'clock.

Tang Bao's villa.

Director Glass took two capable officers to visit Tang Bao's home.

"Don, for the kidnapping that happened this afternoon. I feel very sorry. But please also believe that the police will investigate the case as soon as possible and give you an explanation. "Glass. Tang Baoke is a world-class billionaire, one of the largest foreign investors in the United States, and has a Chinese official background, so if such a person has an accident in New York, the impact is very bad, and the pressure he faces is unimaginable to outsiders.

In fact.

A few hours after the incident, Glass's office was on the phone, including the governor and mayor of New York, as well as Washington and the Chinese embassy in the United States, as well as some members of Congress and prominent business elites...... Without exception, they all expressed concern about the kidnapping case.

"Hmm...... Don, may I ask you a question, did you ever have a conflict of interest with the Italian Hey-Hand Party? Glass asked.

"Huh. Glass laughed, I'm just a pure businessman, the other party is an underground force, where is the conflict of interest between the two? Tang Bao said with a smile.

"But ......"

"Nothing. I think if Director Glass wanted to investigate the case, he should have interrogated the arrested kidnappers, not me, the victim! Tang Bao showed displeasure on his face and refused. He knew that even if he reported Simocco's situation to the police, it would not only be useless, but would tie himself up.

To deal with Simoko, you still have to rely on yourself, well, more precisely, by Ilya and others!

"Oh, I'm sorry, I was abrupt." Glass didn't force it, and said: "Well, this time I came over, mainly to talk about your safety, the kidnapping case has not been closed, and the other party may strike again." To ensure your safety, the police will send officers to protect you until the threat is eliminated. ”

"Then thank you, Director Glass." Tang Bao did not refuse, and thanked him.

"That's what we're supposed to do. Well, by the way, the scope of protection is limited to New York City, if you leave New York, or even leave the United States......"

"Haha. I know, Director Glass, you can take care of the security of your own turf! Tang Bao said with a smile.

"Not really. I'm just saying that in New York City you can make sure that you do the best things you can do, and if you leave New York, the police officers in charge of protection will still follow you, but you may face more difficulties and surprises because of the lack of rear support. Glass quickly explained.

"Oh, that's right."

Tang Bao realized that he had misunderstood.

"Then I won't disturb your rest. Tomorrow, I'll arrange for the police to come over! With that, Glass left with two of his subordinates.

Watching Glass's departing back.

Kate smiled and sighed, "I didn't expect this Director Glass to be very dedicated, and make the decision to provide police protection to the boss so quickly." It seems that the identity of the world's richest people, even the New York Police Department does not dare to take it lightly. ”

"There will always be some special care for the rich group, which is very common in countries around the world. Well, however, the protection provided by Glass is a bit sincere and a little fake, and it is difficult for us to see clearly. Tang Bao said with a light smile. (To be continued......)
