Chapter 1: The Blue Fox Secret Service
Late at night, the streets are deserted, and the night breeze of the Huangpu River rolls across the Bund street, with the whirring of pieces of paper, occasionally mixed with the sound of wine bottles rolling.
With a creak, a cloaked truck stopped not far from the bank building of the Shanghai branch of Zhengjin at No. 24 on the Bund.
Under the dim kerosene street lamp, I saw more than a dozen figures jumping out of the truck, all dressed in black, holding box guns, explosives, ropes, bags, etc., and rushed quickly towards the door of the Zhengjin Bank building.
At first glance, they were preparing to rob the Zhengjin Bank with arms.
There have been four bank robberies in a row this month, with perpetrators coming out to rob a bank every other week. They all came out at three or four o'clock in the morning to commit crimes, because this is the time when the security guards on duty are the most sleepy and tired.
The first three bank robberies all took place on the Bund Bank Street, because this is the gathering place of the Shijie banking group of various countries, as many as fifty or sixty bank headquarters are located here, and each bank has millions of dollars in gold and cash reserves in its vaults, so the robbers get a huge sum of money for each bank robbery.
Making a windfall is obviously the most convenient way to rob a bank.
Interestingly, the previous three bank robberies all occurred in banks opened by Japanese, and it is clear that this bank robber is very difficult to get along with the Japanese.
However, their jishu is very clever, and they did not use explosives to violently open the vault in the first three times, and all relied on superb unlocking jishu to open the vault insurance door. And there is no trace of the use of firearms, and the security guards are always dealt with with tranquilizer bullets or stunned conscious security guards at close range, and there is not even a trace of a fierce fight.
All this proves that the robbers who robbed the bank before had superb jishu and strong personal martial arts.
For the old gate police station in Pike Lane (Nanjing Road), Inspector James's head has recently become more than a dozen laps, and three bank robberies have caused a sensation in the Shanghai Public Concession, and the public board of directors has asked James to solve the case and arrest the robbers within a time limit, and most importantly, to recover the stolen accounts with a total value of up to seven million US dollars.
After careful research, James found that the robbers appeared at night, and they were very regular, coming out every seven days to commit crimes, and they were all looking for banks opened by Japanese.
In doing so, James believes that the scope of his protection has been narrowed down to the few remaining Japanese banks.
The three banks of Zhengjin Shanghai, Sakura Bank, and Sumitomo Shanghai Fire Insurance Bank were the next targets of the robbers, so James led his men to ambush them in the vicinity of these three banks.
Today happened to be the seventh day, and James guessed that the robbers should appear, as long as they were caught in one fell swoop, then not only could he be promoted, but the Japanese bankers paid him for the rest of his life.
Seeing that it was four o'clock in the morning, James was sleepy and napping, and his men suddenly noticed something suspicious.
"Detective, more than a dozen suspicious people appeared near Zhengjin Bank!"
"Wait! We'll do it when they rush into the bank! ”
James suddenly became excited, and hurriedly ordered his men to cheer up.
The patrol police in the public concession are basically Sikhs from India, loyal lackeys of the British, who usually bully the Chinese people, and the dialect of the Shanghainese calls them red-headed Ah San.
These red-headed Ah Sans saw the robbers appear, and when they saw the robbers holding weapons, they were a little nervous, but there were a lot of Ah San, and this time James made a lot of money, and applied for more than 200 patrol officers from the chief superintendent, and almost all the patrols in the public concession were concentrated.
In this way, the three of them saw that they were outnumbered, so they quickly calmed down and waited for James to give the order to arrest them.
More than a dozen bank robbers looked around, but did not find the red-headed three men who were ambushed around.
With the order of one of them, several robbers suddenly came to the gate of the bank and took out the lock-picking tools.
I saw that the robber couldn't unlock the door for a long time, and he suddenly became impatient, and called a subordinate to pry open the gate directly with a crowbar.
More than a dozen robbers swarmed into the bank lobby, and the Japanese security guards were already alarmed, and while the alarm was sounded, they shot back.
Due to the recent appearance of a series of robbers against the Japanese bank, the Japanese security guards of the Zhengjin Bank have increased a lot, and they are equipped with a large number of weapons.
When the robbers rushed in, more than 20 security guards in the hall immediately raised their guns and opened fire.
A fierce burst of gunfire immediately alarmed the entire Shanghai Beach.
More than a dozen robbers were dumbfounded, and most of them were killed by the other party in an instant, and the remaining five or six people immediately ran out, only to be blocked by the patrol police who surrounded them.
The robbers were obviously outlaws, knowing that if they were caught, they would die, so they resisted desperately.
The three men shot frantically, and seeing that the robbers were about to be killed, James suddenly remembered something.
"Stay alive!"
After several minutes of intense firefighting, the robbers were left with only one man, and soon he ran out of bullets.
James immediately breathed a sigh of relief, shouted and caught alive, and several red-headed Ah San rushed forward to arrest the robbers.
All the lights are on the robber, because he has become the protagonist of the night, a cash cow for promotion in everyone's eyes.
However, no one noticed a bright point light source on the roof of the building a few hundred meters away, an optical phenomenon caused by the sniper scope reflecting light from the target.
I saw that the sniper fired without hesitation.
Bang!
A 7.92 bullet shot rang out on the robber's forehead, piercing the back of his head, leaving a bloody hole the size of a bowl.
In an instant, brains and blood splattered, sprinkled a few red-headed Ah San around him, and his face was all over his body.
Everyone was stunned at that moment, and it wasn't until a few red-headed Ah San couldn't help but vomit that everyone regained consciousness.
The only robber was shot in the head, apparently murderous.
"Who fired the shot? Find him out for me right now! ”
James was furious, and he was counting on the robber to find out the whereabouts of the stolen money, and it was all over again.
However, they searched only within a hundred meters of the vicinity, because his experience felt that the sight was not good at night, and it was impossible to shoot more than a hundred meters in the head. Who would have thought that there would be snipers involved in a bank robbery.
After searching for a long time and not finding the gunman, James suddenly turned into a frosted eggplant.
The next thing to do is to find out where the bodies came from, and then look for the stolen money.
"Close!"
James's reluctant order, the patrols who were ambushed near several banks withdrew one after another, except for more than 20 patrols at the old gate of Pike Lane who followed James back to the police station to continue the investigation, the other patrols returned to their respective patrol houses in the public concession, after all, they still have to work early tomorrow morning, and there are so many things in the entire public concession that it is impossible for them to go around a Bund.
Fortunately, the robbers had been killed, and everyone left in peace. And the security guards of various banks also learned the news of the robbers being wiped out for the first time, and they finally breathed a sigh of relief, and many bank security guards thought that they were safe, and they immediately fell asleep in the lounge.
However, James seemed to be carried away by the victory in front of him, and he didn't think that tonight's robbers seemed to be very commonplace, compared to the previous three robbers, tonight's robbers seemed to be too inferior in Jishu and IQ.
James returned to the police station with the bodies of his men and a dozen robbers, and the Bund quickly calmed down.
The wind of the Huangpu River still whistling through the icy streets.
A short time later, several black Ford sedans and a large black tarpaulin truck stopped near the entrance of Sakura Bank.
Under the dim kerosene street lamp, more than a dozen black figures came down.
The same black shoes and black clothes, except that these people all wore black hoods and steel helmets that were specially woven to prevent the reflection of light, revealing only two eyes. They all wore black leather gloves, and the M1911 Colt pistol was pinned to the holster on their thighs, and they were wearing a special black vest, which was bulging and obviously loaded with various weapons and tools, and the most special thing was that there was a thing slightly larger than the big brother of later generations hanging in the heart of the left chest of the vest, which was the latest product successfully developed by the American Motorola company -- MAX1927 walkie-talkie.
Unlike the lazy and lazy manner of the previous dozen robbers, the dozen or so men in black who jumped out of the car this time immediately formed a three-three battle formation, and the Thomson submachine gun in his hand was aimed at any direction around them that might pose a threat to them.
If it were in the 21st century, someone would have recognized the origins of these people, and their outfits would obviously be associated with the famous Hong Kong Flying Tigers.
It's just that in the twenties, such a military organization suddenly appeared, and who are they?
"Safety!"
"Safety!"
As several teams made sure that the surrounding situation was in a safe state, one of them came to the car and reached out to open the door, and soon a tall and powerful man slowly came out.
This man was dressed in roughly the same equipment as the others, the only difference was that he was empty-handed and didn't take anything. Judging by the actions of these people who were all respectful to him, it was clear that he was the leader of these people.
I saw him wave his hand, and everyone quickly dispersed.
Who else can be a Flying Tigers team in the twenties?
That's right, the tall and mighty man in front of him is undoubtedly Zhang Meng. And the dozen or so people around him were the elites he spent three months and selected from more than 500 people through hellish training.
They have a common code name called the Blue Fox Special Service.
