North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 268 Blasting
The negotiators at the gate of the bank were wearing bulletproof vests and were still trying to talk to the robbers inside. Ruiz came to the ESU, asked them about it, and then borrowed the structural diagram to look at it for himself. Jimmy also leaned over. The structural diagram of the building It was taught in the FBI Academy, but they only need to identify passages, doors, stairs, elevators, and the location of safety escape devices, and it does not involve deep content.

This bank is located in about half of the ground floor of an apartment building. It is just a small bank branch. After strengthening the first floor of the apartment building, a storage warehouse and a small vault are set up at the back. The storage warehouse is relatively large, mainly for some supplies. The safe deposit box for outsiders can store some important items.

The lobby and office area are separated in the front. There is no such a large and empty lobby as in the movie. The space here is relatively small.

Jimmy is a little confused about the fact that such a small bank has a storage warehouse. Generally, things that need to be kept in the bank are very important. Why not go to the headquarters or a separate large bank to set up a safe deposit box?Is this small bank really safe?
Now it seems that the two robbers are not necessarily in the vault or the storage warehouse. Many people rob the bank for the purpose of keeping the important items in the warehouse. The items in the safe deposit box, many valuables such as jewelry and gold bars, will be stored in the bank safe deposit box, as well as various bonds, securities certificates, property rights documents, contracts and other important documents.

Jimmy didn't tell Ruiz his guess. As senior detectives, Ruiz and the others have seen many cases, so they must have their own ideas, especially when Jimmy saw Ruiz's fingers kept on the drawing. The location of the warehouse stayed for a while.

Ruiz returned the blueprint to ESU and took Jimmy back to the FBI's location.

Ruiz: "Jimmy, the NYPD is in charge now, let's wait here."

Jimmy: "OK, by the way, is the OPR investigation of me over?"

Ruiz: "I didn't get any news. When I called Hughes just now, he didn't say anything. He just agreed to let you come with me."

Jimmy: "So I started working? Or overtime?"

Ruiz glanced at Jimmy: "Go on vacation after the matter is over, don't worry. I will apply for overtime for you."

Jimmy shrugged his shoulders. Anyway, he is not short of the salary for working overtime for a while, but this is the first time he encountered a bank robbery. Watching the NYPD deal with it live is more boring than watching a movie. There are various scenes interspersed in the movie. There will also be footage of the robbers, while they're just on guard outside.

But don’t worry about the robbers escaping for the time being. When the bank outlets are reinforced, the ground is reinforced, and the sewers are also reinforced. It’s like in a movie that you have to open a manhole cover and escape. Don’t even think about it.

After waiting bored for half an hour, Jimmy looked around. There was a shop not far away. There were several fishing rods hanging outside. It should be a fishing tackle shop. He thought about it, said something to Ruiz, and walked over. Fortunately, it was really a fishing tackle shop. Jimmy didn't buy a fishing rod, but bought two folding chairs for fishing.

When Ruiz saw the chair that Jimmy brought back, his eyes were a little bit wrong. Jimmy gave him a chair, and the two of them sat directly behind the wall to rest. Waiting for coffee and buying coffee now when the ESU is ready to storm the bank is a bit too much.

Ruiz and Jimmy were sitting and waiting. Suddenly there was a movement from the NYPD. They immediately got up and went over to see what was going on. The negotiator had already retreated. He came to the ESU and was communicating with them.Someone from NYPD is also listening in the ESU team. He still has a mobile phone in his hand, and he is probably communicating with the above.

A few minutes later, the ESUs began to prepare for action. The bulletproof shields that had been put aside before had been picked up, and other people also started to line up according to the group. Suddenly, everyone heard a dull explosion. Everyone turned their heads to look at the bank. I couldn't see anything at the main entrance, but the sound just now was wrong. The sound of the explosion was not the same as the sound of gunfire or the sound of a car blowing out. No matter what, it was not a good thing.

The two teams of ESU did not wait any longer, but set out to the door of the bank under the cover of shields. The inside of the door was fixed by the robbers. The team members began to advance, and the team members behind also raised their guns and entered.

Jimmy and the others were outside and couldn't see what was going on inside the ESU team, but to their surprise, there was no gunfire at all.

Two or three minutes after the ESU team entered, the NYPD outside suddenly ran towards the door, probably to inform them of something, but Ruiz and the others didn't bring a walkie-talkie, so they could only follow the crowd into the bank.

As the police entered, all the hostages in the hall were untied. The wide plastic straps that bound the hostages were difficult to break free, but as long as there were sharp objects, they could be easily cut off.

The NYPD police were comforting the hostages, and some people entered the back through the office area. Jimmy and the others followed suit. Good guy, the original steel reinforcement at the sewer was cut and a hole was blown up. The robbers directly entered the underground from here. Repair the pipe network and then run away.

The 4 robbers were divided into two teams. The 2 robbers inside brought the bank manager in. Afterwards, the manager was blindfolded, his hands and feet were tied and placed outside the storage warehouse. They violently opened the warehouse and installed explosives here. , the two robbers outside may have sneaked in to meet the two robbers who had not appeared before when the negotiator returned, detonated the explosives, and then escaped.

NYPD began to mobilize manpower and notified the municipal side to obtain pipeline information, and people from the Queens District Office of the FBI also joined the ranks of manpower mobilization.

Jimmy looked at the underground pipe network. It may be that his mind is limited when observing things underground. The distance he can see this kind of underground pipe network is much less than that of ordinary buildings. Jimmy looked at the direction of the pipes to distinguish the direction , Go straight out and start chasing along the pipeline on foot.

Because he didn't know which direction the robber was going to the pipeline, Jimmy could only choose one direction to run for a while, and if he couldn't find it, he would go back to the other side.

Now is not the time to explain to Ruiz. Except for Jimmy, no one else can see the situation of the pipe network.

As a traverser, Jimmy is really unlucky in terms of luck. With a 50% probability, he chased for more than a hundred meters abruptly, but he still didn't find it. It seems that he chose the wrong direction. while running over.
