Chapter 279: 300 million yen
On this day, Tang Ning was bored in the office, and suddenly Inujiro came over mysteriously, and invited Dashan Beida and others in the office out, Tang Ning asked with some confusion: "Jiro, what's the matter with you, so mysterious!" ”
Inujiro hesitated for a long time before he said, "Boss, I have 300 million yen now, but I don't know how to spend it." ”
Tang Ning was so shocked that he almost squirted out the coffee in his mouth, and after swallowing it reluctantly, he said with some amusement: "Ergouzi, don't tease me, you don't even know how to spend money?" Aren't you a bunch of girlfriends, I think they'll be happy to help you spend this money. Then, as if something suddenly came to mind, he asked, "Wait a minute, 300 million yen?" Where did you get all this money? ”
Inujiro was mysterious, looked left and right, and closed the curtains, then walked to Tang Ning's side and whispered: "Boss, haven't you watched the news in the past few days?" Trust Bank has a cash truck that people robbed, you know that, right? ”
Tang Ning stood up in surprise and exclaimed, "Jiro, you can't do this, right?" Are you crazy? I know you've lost money in stock trading recently, but you can't do it! ”
Inujiro waved his hand again and again: "Boss, boss, you misunderstood, how can I have the guts, I didn't do this, but I know who did it, and these boys have been controlled by me." ”
Tang Ning sat down, stroked his chest, and said with a long sigh of relief: "You kid scared me to death, speak clearly in the future, I don't know if my heart is bad." By the way, how did you find out about this? After so many years of working under my hands, I know for the first time that you still have the talent to solve crimes, and it is said that all the hands of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department have been scattered. I haven't found it, so why did you catch the main owner all at once? ”
This is not an exaggeration of Downing, because the impact of this incident at the time was too great, and it was impossible for the police not to use all their strength to crack it, and 300 million yen in 68 years is equivalent to 3 billion yen now, which is about the same amount not to mention the world's first. It is said that the Japanese police spent 900 million yen over a seven-year period. A total of about 170,000 investigators and about 25,000 pieces of information provided by the private sector were used, and a total of 2.08 million posters of 16 types were used, saying "Please recall the 300 million yuan incident." There are all sorts of legends surrounding the case, and every new clue released by the police is a hot topic in the media.
Inujiro explained: "How can I have that ability, and it's a coincidence to say this." Originally, there was a kid who often came to me to buy white goods, but that guy was poor to death, and every time he didn't get enough money, but last time it was different, he came to me and bought a million yen at a time, and he was arrogant. It's just a look of not treating money as money, which makes us pay attention, this kid has no ability and no relatives, this money must come from the wrong way.
Then I sent a few brothers to rob you back, and after interrogation, I found out that one of his classmates had done it, and he was responsible for letting you go, so he also got a share of the money. Then I followed the vine and caught all these boys. The 300 million yen is almost all with me, but now I have found a big problem, that is, the money is all new money, all of them are serial numbers, and the banks have already announced that these numbers are invalid in newspapers and on television, and I can't spend this money at all."
Tang Ning understood Inujiro's depression very well. Indeed, under such a high-profile and rigorous investigation by the police and the bank, to rush to spend these invalidated bills is to die, and the police are now expecting you to spend this money, and then find clues to arrest you. Even if you only spend one or a few at a time, as long as the money reaches the bank, people will definitely track you back and find you step by step, so Inujiro is now sitting on 300 million yen, but the result is similar to waste paper.
Speaking of which, Tang Ning really couldn't believe that this 300 million yen robbery was actually just done by a few imps in their twenties, because the whole process was too strict. In the second half of 1968, criminals intimidated bank branches in the Tokyo area with letters demanding millions of yen or planting bombs in banks or employees' homes. There are a total of 9 such letters, which are believed to have been sent by criminals to select suitable targets for the crime, and the stamps of the letters were affixed with saliva, and the test results showed that the person was blood type B. One of the letters was addressed to the manager of the Kokubunji branch of the Nippon Trust Bank (later known as the Mitsubishi UFJ Trust Bank), asking him to send a female clerk to deliver 3 million yen to the designated location on December 7, 1968, or else blow up the manager's home. After the manager called the police, the police were dispatched, but the culprit did not appear. Just when people thought it was just a prank, the real crime began.
Four days later, at around 9:30 a.m. on December 10, a Nissan cash truck loaded with 294,307,500 yen departed from the Kokubunji Branch of the Japan Trust Bank to the Fuchu Plant of Shibaura Electric (now Toshiba) in Tokyo. The money, which is the worker's year-end bonus, is packed in three separate safes. When the cash truck passed by Sakae Town Gakuen Road in Fuchu City behind Fuchu Prison, it was stopped by a male 'policeman' on a motorcycle.
The driver of the cash truck opened the window and asked what was going on, and the male 'policeman' replied, 'The house of the president of the Sugamo branch of your bank has been bombed, and I have just been notified that there is a problem with this car and I want to check it.'" Everyone in the cash truck knew about the threatening letter incident four days ago, so they all got out of the car. The man climbed into the cash truck, ignited the smoke bomb hidden on his body, yelled 'it's going to explode, run away', and drove away in full view of everyone.
Just when the bank staff were admiring the bold actions of the 'police', they suddenly realized that the motorcycle left by the 'police' at the scene was not quite right, and then they knew that they had been deceived. At 9:50 a.m., the entire Tokyo Metropolitan Government entered a state of emergency to hunt down criminals, except for the Izu and Ogasawara Islands. Every year, this day is the first day of special security at the end of the year, so the police are scattered in various important places in the city, and it was not expected that the prisoners would change cars on the way, and after a whole day of checking, no trace of the prisoners was found.
PS: In Japanese law, this incident is a theft and not a robbery, which is strange enough, anyway, I can't understand it. (To be continued.) )
