The young mother looked at Xiao Lin in disbelief, not expecting that the young man rely touched the baby gently, and the crying infant fell into a slumber without her even realizing it. Was this the acupoint technique from Huaxia martial arts? She wanted to thank him, but in this environnt, if she didn’t want to die, she could only obediently follow the robbers’ instructions.
Xiao Lin appeared very frightened, trembling as he followed the young mother to the corner with the other hostages. It was then Xiao Lin noticed Tong Tong standing in front of him, her face pale with fear, having never encountered such a situation in her life.
The mont Xiao Lin ca in, Tong Tong spotted him and began to bla herself endlessly. If she hadn’t insisted on entering this bank, none of this would have happened. But what puzzled her was why Dr. Xiao had co inside as well. Given the ti the robbers barged in, he should have been outside and seen them coming in. Why did he rush inside?
When the gunfire erupted, Tong Tong almost scread and even felt a rush of impulse to charge forward, her heart in her throat. If Dr. Xiao were shot by the robbers, she didn’t know if she could live with the guilt for the rest of her life.
Fortunately, Xiao Lin seed to be so frightened that he fell to the ground and rolled beside a young mother, apparently unhard, which slightly eased the worry in Tong Tong’s heart.
The small gesture Xiao Lin made to that young mother and the look in his eyes happened to be seen by Tong Tong. Subsequently, the mother released the baby from her arms, and the previously crying infant not only stopped crying but also fell asleep. In that mont, Tong Tong was even more astounded by Xiao Lin.
Dr. Xiao ca in on his own? And he already knew that the bank was under attack by robbers? Tong Tong was even more certain that Dr. Xiao wasn’t so scared by the robbers on the scene that he fell to the ground, but it was a deliberate move due to sensing danger.
Tong Tong never imagined that the charming Dr. Xiao could be soone with such formidable skills, and also so kind-hearted and brave, daring to enter despite knowing a robbery with heavily ard criminals was underway. For unknown reasons, her heart gradually cald, feeling a bit of blind admiration for Xiao Lin.
Xiao Lin continuously watched the movents of the robbers, increasingly convinced of his earlier thoughts when he was outside. These robbers weren’t here to rob the bank but had another purpose. If it were a genuine bank robbery, none of them would just be standing guard in the lobby at this mont.
Xiao Lin had a sudden thought; given this setup, it seed like there were more than these six people. Otherwise, why stand still now? Even if there was a traffic jam outside, causing severe blockage, in Huaxia, the power of administration is always present, and in such a critical situation, deploying administrative forces would definitely occur.
According to Xiao Lin’s estimation, even if there were traffic jams outside, for the Yanjing SWAT team, it would only delay them by three to five minutes. And since the opposing side hasn’t imdiately started the robbery, likely their aim isn’t for that, there’s no worry about outside encirclent.
In this bank lobby, not only Xiao Lin but several hostages also thought the sa—the robbers clearly weren’t here for the money but had another intention.
As Xiao Lin secretly observed everything in the room, his hands stayed in his pockets, gripping three Silver Needles. The opponents stood in five positions, clearly well-trained fighters. Xiao Lin wasn’t confident of taking them all out in one go; at best, he could take out three. With another Dragon Soul team mber, he might feel assured.
"Found in the eting room on the fourth floor, but quite a few people inside, need any support?" the leader of the robbers holding a Desert Eagle whispered. Naturally, others couldn’t hear what he was saying, but Xiao Lin heard every word clearly.
"Indeed, more than just these people, it seems their planning is quite detailed, personnel already arranged inside the bank. It appears they’re not few! But if they pull back one or two mbers, there’s a chance to make a successful strike!" Xiao Lin thought to himself, hoping their manpower was insufficient above, so they’d send one or two more up.
When the leader said that, Xiao Lin suddenly heard sounds of digging underground from the room on the right side of the first-floor lobby. The noise grew louder, even causing the ground here to tremble.
Hearing the floor’s vibration, the leader imdiately said, "Alright, BOSS has arrived. I’ll send Number Four and Number Five to assist you. Hope you can wrap everything up before BOSS appears on the fourth floor, or bear the consequences yourself!" The leader then said to the robber next to him, "Number Five, go up with Number Four to support! Seems there’s a bit of resistance over there!"
After sending away two people, the noise in the room on the right ceased with a loud bang, followed by a sudden sound of chaotic footsteps coming from inside.
"Three people!" Xiao Lin judged: "And they’re all experts!" Xiao Lin was secretly astonished; those three people coming up from the underground in the right-side room had noticeably lighter footsteps, possibly also trained martial artists, and judging by the sound of the footsteps, definitely not amateurs.
The room door opened, first to co out was a burly young man in his thirties. Judging by his appearance, he looked like a Westerner, tall and strong, at least one ter ninety, wearing a tight leather outfit that perfectly showcased his solid muscles. His sword-like brows and hooked nose outlined his defiant face.
Behind him followed two masked n, each carrying a lightweight machine gun. Though lightweight, each gun’s weight was definitely over twenty kilograms, but in their hands, they seed like toy guns, held with one hand and appearing effortless.
Xiao Lin’s heart sank at once. With the appearance of this young man, Xiao Lin rembered the deadly battle a few months ago against a fanatic religious organization in the Middle East; the leader was around forty, almost a spitting image of this young man.
"Ladies and gentlen, please remain calm. Today we apologize for the inconvenience; we do not intend to harm you or rob the bank’s money. I rely ca to ask soone for a favor!" The young man smiled gently, showing a kind expression, appearing so gentlemanly!
