Andrew scolded and walked out of the west wing of the art museum, damn the company, such a big museum, there are only five security guards at night, and in order to save money, not even a moped is provided, everyone can only rely on flashlights and walking to patrol at night.
There are a total of five security guards, a group of two, one of them is still in the monitoring room to stare at the monitoring, every hour, you have to come out of the security room in a group, patrol the whole building, you must know the building area, there are tens of thousands of square meters, even if you look at the flowers, walk down in a circle, it will take more than an hour.
The damn door-slamming boss signs a multimillion-dollar security contract with the museum every year, but he doesn't even provide some basic equipment, and in recent years, he has continuously reduced his staff.
In such a large museum, only five people are on duty at night, which is really special!
Andrew was supposed to be in charge of watching the surveillance in the monitoring room tonight, but unfortunately Dwyan, who was originally in charge of patrolling, was transferred from the monitoring room because of something at home, so he was transferred from the monitoring room to be responsible for floor patrol.
After getting the notice, Andrew scolded Matthew, the supervisor in charge of the division of security, in his stomach, that grandson, isn't it because of last year's Thanksgiving company party, and he had some unpleasantness, this year, how many small shoes have you found for yourself to wear?
If it weren't for the salary of more than a dozen yuan an hour, Andrew would have wanted to rush over and give that guy a few big slaps.
Maulins, who is partnered with him, is a notoriously slacker. A mission that was supposed to be patrolled by two people. That guy often makes excuses to desert. When he just went up to the West Building, he said that his stomach hurt, and he had finished inspecting the entire West Building, and the guy hadn't come out of the toilet yet, so he couldn't protect his grandson, and he hid in that corner to smoke.
And Damien in the monitoring room, the guy is a notoriously sleepy guy who works every night shift. will be lazy to sleep, and if you can't keep it, you can sleep in the monitoring room now.
And Juan and Chris, the two guys, may be sleeping in the security room now, playing cards, or talking about women, these bastards, don't you know to be sympathetic to your old man?
Hey, I also blame myself for being confused, if it wasn't for the heat of my brain, I caught up with Alice. divorced from his original wife, then his pension is enough for himself. It's good now, to sell his life here for a salary of more than ten yuan an hour, and when he thinks of this, Andrew feels that his brain is starting to hurt.
The air conditioning in the building is working 24 hours a day, because there are many exhibits in the museum, all of which are old objects from the previous year, so the storage temperature and air humidity are very high.
It's not just October, and the temperature outside is only a dozen degrees above zero, but the temperature in the house is the same as outside, and it's cold to death.
As soon as he thought of this, Andrew couldn't help but tighten the padded jacket on his body, otherwise he felt that his neck was cold.
The West Building has been patrolled, so I won't go to the East Building, and there are few blind guys who will have the idea of a museum anyway.
After today's marathon bombing, Boston is almost everywhere with police, and there are still people patrolling the roads, so if thieves come to visit this museum, the thieves' brains must be caught in the door.
Thinking of this, Andrew couldn't help but speed up his feet, now he just wanted to go back to the security room as much as possible, drink a cup of hot coffee, and go to the cold.
These damn terrorists still dare to make trouble, and Andrew hates it when he thinks of those bastards who planted bombs.
Today's daytime bombing has already made headlines in the major news media in the United States, and a lot of TV news is constantly scrolling through the latest news about the bombing.
Andrew didn't care who exactly planted the bombs, and how many people were killed by those two bombs.
The reason why he hates the terrorists who set off the bombs so much is mainly because those terrorists set off the bombs, which led to the early closure of the museum today, and even the original fixed cleaning staff did not come.
In this way, he will be on duty tonight for a lot longer than before, and because of this artificial chaos, it is difficult to say whether the museum will open normally tomorrow.
Because the bomb exploded in the Kennedy Presidential Library in Copley Square, very close to the museum, no one can guarantee that the terrorists will continue to plant bombs on Copley Square tomorrow until they are caught.
If the leaders of the museum feel that the security situation in the neighborhood is not good, they may choose to close the museum tomorrow, which means that they will have to work overtime recently.
Andrew didn't want to put his old bones in for the sake of that fourteen and a half dollars an hour's wages.
He slowly walked down the stairs of the West Building, and then slowly walked to the security duty room behind, and just as he was about to go to the corner, he suddenly heard the intercom on his shoulder, and there was a burst of electricity, and then Damian's voice in the monitoring room: "Andrew, Andrew, please reply when you hear it." ”
"Roger, what's the matter with Damian?"
Andrew pressed the answer button.
"There are two police officers at the gate of the museum right now, you go open the door and ask what the hell is going on with them."
"Roger."
Andrew let go of the answer button, then cursed, and turned around and walked towards the door of the museum.
According to the normal procedure, once the museum is closed, the doors are not allowed to be opened until the next day, unless there is an unforeseen circumstance.
But isn't that an accident now?
Andrew came to the gate, first disarmed the electronic alarm, and then opened the gate, outside which were standing two policemen, a man and a woman, both white, and the male policeman had a very beautiful mustache.
"How can I help you? Police officer! ”
Seeing the blue uniform and the police car under the steps of the gate, Andrew's heart warmed, and he inexplicably remembered his early career in the police force.
The two in front of him were all fresh faces, he had never seen them before, and they must have only joined the police force in recent years.
"That's right, I'm Officer Vane, this is Officer Aveline, and we've been told that the guy who is suspected of being a terrorist has infiltrated your museum, so let's take a look. How's it going on your side? It's nothing! ”
The police officer with the beautiful mustache looked at Andrew and asked, his blue eyes looked very bright in the dark night, I don't know why, Andrew always thought this guy looked very weird.
But soon he shook off the funny thoughts in his head: "That's impossible, officer, our doors and windows here are connected to the alarm system, and if someone breaks in, we'll know for sure." ”
"Is that so? By the way, your name is ......."
"My name is Andrew, and I'm the security captain here tonight."
"Well, Captain Andrew, we also came here after receiving orders from above, and I think you'd better let us in and have a look. You know, what happened during the day today, you can't be careless. ”
The policeman said to Andrew very politely, but although he said it politely, his meaning was very tough, whether Andrew agreed or not, they would come in and have a look.
Andrew had also been a police officer before, and he knew what kind of virtue a police officer would be in the event of a terrorist attack.
When there is such a case, the pressure on the police will always be very great, including pressure from the city government, pressure from the masses, and pressure from public opinion.
The police chief will shoot all his men out like crazy in order to try to catch the suspect in the shortest possible time so that he can give the public an explanation.
Today, if these two policemen don't come in to check on them based on what they said, if they really wait for a while, something happens in this museum, then the two of them will not be able to eat and walk away.
So Andrew didn't think much of it, and opened the door and let the two cops in, even though he knew it was a violation of their company's security regulations.
"Alright, Andrew, where are the rest of your companions? Call them all out, this museum is so big, I need their help, let's go through this museum together, with your help, I think we can get the job done soon. ”
The male officer said to Andrew, who nodded, "That's a good idea." ”
Then he pressed the intercom on his shoulder and told him about the situation here, and several other security guards completely agreed, but before leaving, everyone needed to do some work assignment, so Andrew said to them and gathered in the security room.
After speaking, he took two police officers and walked to the security room at the back of the museum.
By the time they arrived at the security room, several security guards were already waiting there, and even Damian, who was sitting in the monitoring room, came out.
"Alright, everyone's here, officer, how are you going to start?"
Andrew glanced at the big guy, then turned to look at the two officers, and the female officer suddenly looked up and asked, "Are all the people here?" How can there only be five people? I have been to this museum before, and the patrol I saw at that time was not nine people? ”
"It was daytime, and there were only five of us at night."
Andrew replied, but when he turned his head to see the pistols in the hands of the officers, his face immediately changed: "Shit! (To be continued......)
