Three minutes later, Edwin Antonio arrived at the original site of Craig Tower.
The reason why he said it was the original site was because there were no traces of the classical revival building. Only ruins were left. Large amounts of rubble and steel were piled up here.
"We've already checked the vault. Everything has been taken by them, and the rest has been burned. Including all our inventory here, as well as a large amount of 20 and 10 gold duns in small bills. "
The one who reported to Antonio was a Blood Brooch. But apart from that, his tie clip was also red. That was the mark of a Blood Hand officer.
"Apart from the bank employees and ordinary citizens who were caught up in the attack and released from the barrier, none of our combat team members who were deployed here survived."
Edwin Antonio's aura was no longer just gloomy. The temperature around him had dropped to freezing point, causing the attendants around him to shudder.
"Since there are survivors, do you know who did it?"
"Unfortunately, they were all masked. These people don't know anything about the robbers' origins —"
Before the 'Blood Brooch' could finish his sentence, his right cheek was hit with a 'slap'.
The huge force made him lose his footing. When he regained his footing, he immediately revealed a look of dissatisfaction. "Hey! Antonio, you can't blame me for this. My men were chasing those murderous rats two blocks away. That was your order, wasn't it? You said you couldn't let them escape. And this Craig Community Bank, Antonio, you usually hold it tightly and don't even let us touch it. What? You're blaming me now that something happened? "
"But my bank is in your Frank's territory," he said. If I didn't want you to take care of it, why would I give you an extra 500,000 gold duns when we split the profits? Six million a year, isn't that enough to hire five or six Extra-legal Masters? "
Antonio ferociously hit the man's chest with his cane until the man was forced to take a few steps back and became silent. Then, he asked his men, "How much did we lose?"
"A conservative estimate would be at least 180 million gold duns, including 45 million gold duns worth of gold bars and 63 million gold duns worth of cash. About 20 million of that is the bank's cash on hand, and the rest is our money. But as for the exact amount, we still have to check the accounts. In addition, there are also goods worth more than 50 million gold duns. "
Kajaron answered with a pale face, "Other than that, there's also this building. Although it's in the eastern suburbs, it's worth up to 20 million, and we have seven stores here."
"So these damn guys destroyed nearly one-fifth of my assets, AH?"
Before Antonio could get angry, he saw another person rush over. "Boss, Mr. Anzo sent a message. They've lost the target. Not only were all the motorcycles destroyed, but there were also 12 casualties. Xie Lisha and Anzo both suggested that if you don't have the strength of six combat teams, it's best not to rashly pursue. In addition, Mr. Anzo said he recognized one of the robbers, Howard Eisenhower, a level-seventeen marksman. "
"Eye of the Sky?"
Antonio's pupils shrank, and he turned to look at Kajaron. "Can you find these bastards in the shortest time possible?"
"Boss, I will do it in the shortest time possible."
Cajron straightened his back. "Actually, I've already contacted the Ghost Warsong Hunting Group and the Demon Wolf Fenrir Hunting Group from the Dark World. I've asked them to help me seal off Specter City so that their three armored vehicles can't enter Specter City."
"Looks like I'm going to have to fork out a lot of money, right? But if they can really do it, even if I have to give them 30 million gold duns, I'll be very happy. Also, put a bounty on Howard Eisenhower's head. I'm personally offering a reward of 8 million gold duns. No matter where he hides, find him — "
At this point, Antonio suddenly paused. He saw a new police car slowly enter the scene. Then, a middle-aged man with the rank of inspector on his shoulder got out of the car. Beside him was a well-built young man in plain clothes.
Antonio recognized the two of them. One was Obadiah York, the deputy chief of the Atlanta Police Department, and the other was Colin Damon, the head of the Major Crimes Unit who had just been transferred to the Atlanta Police Department.
He frowned, then strode forward. "Deputy Chief York, Mr. Damon, I think you two are late."
"Not necessarily. It's been less than 15 minutes since the crime happened. Our officers have already arrived, haven't they? "
Obadiah York replied nonchalantly, "What's the situation like? Mr. Antonio, you came earlier than us, so you should know the situation, right? "
"The loss is at least 90 million gold duns! Other than the collapsed building in front of you, my Craig Community Bank has more than 50 million gold duns in its inventory and cash. But what's even sadder is that at least 60 innocent people were killed this time. "
Antonio spread his hands, his face full of grief and helplessness. "This is a shocking robbery! It's unheard of in Atlanta in the decades after World War II. To be honest, I'm very disappointed in your police department. "
York and Damon couldn't help but look at each other. The latter's expression was indifferent. "I'll do my best to investigate this robbery, and I'll also ask the community bank to provide you with all the help you can."
After saying that, he walked in the direction of the ruins. Obadiah York stayed where he was. His eyes were also filled with coldness. "Mr. Antonio, your accusation is unreasonable and irresponsible. It's also a humiliation to our East Police Department! The security in the East City of Atlanta has always been good. It has been peaceful for more than a decade thanks to the efforts of many colleagues in the East Police Department. In the past decade, there has never been a major murder case, except today! Do you need me to remind you of your identity? Mr. Antonio? Are all the cases today related to Blood Hand? "
Antonio couldn't help but frown. "Deputy Commissioner York, I don't understand what you're saying. Isn't it the duty of your police department to protect the safety and property of citizens?"
"That's true. That's why we rushed here to do our duty. But that doesn't mean you can criticize us."
The corners of Obadiah York's lips curled up slightly, but there wasn't the slightest hint of a smile. Instead, it was filled with coldness. "Mr. Antonio, I don't know who you've offended, and I don't care. In short, please end everything as soon as possible. This isn't just the intention of our director, Mr. Yves Ryder, but also the consensus of many of my colleagues in the East Police Department. "
Antonio couldn't help but stop and frown as he looked at the back of the deputy commissioner, who was also walking in the direction of the ruins.
He felt that there was something wrong with this person's attitude. He didn't seem like a public servant who received two million gold duns from him every year.
Speaking of which, when the director of the East Police Department, Yves Ryder, had conversed with him, his attitude wasn't as warm as before.
At first, he thought it was because of the upcoming city council election, but now it seemed that it wasn't that simple.
Antonio immediately turned to the side and turned to instruct Cajlon. "Find out what the reason is. Did Nathan Sports Group do something?"
A haze had already appeared in his heart. Dwight Payton of the Nathan Sports Group was a rare business powerhouse. He had long known this.
But standing behind him was Kelsey Jakes, who also stood at the top of the Atlanta City Council. Not only was he the speaker of the Atlanta City Council, but he was also the whip of the Atlanta branch of the Conservative Party. He was an extremely important high-ranking member of the Conservative Party in Georgia.
It was impossible that such a powerful figure couldn't even last one round in front of Dwight Payton.
