"Robbery?"
Lin Xue and I looked at each other in dismay after we received the mental connection that my sister had sent me and shared what had happened in her vision during that period of time.
"Ah, it's a robbery." My sister's voice was filled with excitement. She must have found something to be excited about after being bored for the past few days. "I was just thinking of a way to get rid of them without causing any abnormalities …"
"Something's not right."
Lin Xue suddenly muttered to herself.
Compared to us, who were skilled but inexperienced amateurs, Lin Xue was considered a professional. Hence, when Lin Xue expressed her doubts about this robbery that didn't seem suspicious, we pricked up our ears.
Lin Xue focused her gaze on the commercial building not far away. It won't be long before the incident inside will break the peace of this street. Of course, at that time, it will most likely be the three unlucky robbers who met with an accident and died a tragic death.
"Commercial building …" Lin Xue frowned and said, "That commercial building should be our family's property …"
"Your family's property?" Although I knew that Lin Xue's family was huge, I still decided to act a little bit surprised after encountering such a coincidental incident.
"Yeah." Lin Xue nodded, "About half of this street is our family's property."
… This time, I was really surprised …
"Don't make that expression." Lin Xue looked at my surprised expression and immediately displayed an evil smugness, "Compared to the entire Lin family's wealth, this street is nothing … Yeah, that's right, I remember, that commercial building is indeed our family's property, no wonder it looks so familiar …"
"Well, a vicious armed robbery happened in the commercial building under your family's name. Now, as a direct member of the family, you are calmly recalling how much wealth your family has in this street. I won't comment on this … But, does this prove that the robbery is unusual?"
Lin Xue put her right thumb on her chin and slowly recalled. At the same time, she broadcast her analysis through the public channel, "I remember the basic structure of that commercial building … The floor where Sister Chen Qian is now is mainly filled with shops selling handicrafts and various folk decorations, and above that floor is the jewelry area … If you were a robber, would you give up the jewelry area where it is easier to get rich and find a place selling handicrafts to rob?"
"This is one of the reasons. Secondly … the structure of that commercial building is not suitable for robbery …"
… I have never heard of the concept of "suitable for robbery" in architectural design …
"Well, I know you can't understand it with your wooden head. Simply put, there are a lot of passages in that place, there is a large flow of people, and many stalls are intertwined with each other. If you rob there, there is a 100% chance that the hostage will escape. Once someone escapes, things will start to get out of control. More importantly, it is a people-intensive area, not a capital-intensive area. A professional robber will definitely not choose that kind of place to commit a crime … Compared to robbery, I think it is more suitable for terrorist attacks …"
Don't you think it's weird to calmly analyze which way to commit a crime in one's own territory is the most cost-effective thing to do? Sister, that is your family's property! There was an armed robbery in your commercial building!
Also, please don't emphasize on words like 'blockhead' in the public channel … There are hundreds of imperial officers listening … Please leave me some face … Don't be so shameless …
But obviously, my ridicule didn't reach Lin Xue's head. This half-immortal who has turned into a calm emperor was still calmly analyzing the situation. "More importantly, you have also shared those images just now. Did you notice, the two followers are wearing masks to conceal themselves, but the bearded uncle who is the leader doesn't — — he is not afraid of being exposed!"
"That's why this robbery is too unprofessional. Those unprofessional guys are more like … they're here to cause chaos. If I'm not wrong, it won't be long before more people are attracted to that commercial building, and they'll open fire to kill …"
Deceiving soldiers.
This kind of analysis was carried out completely through the mental connection. So, less than two seconds had passed when Lin Xue finished her last word. In the building, the bearded man had just finished his declaration of "I only want money".
Without my command, Sandora, who had been on the public channel and acting as the commander of the operation, had already started to assign tasks in an orderly manner, "Team 1 to 8, pay close attention to the movements of people within 500 meters of the 8th building. The soldiers on the periphery have started to create road accidents and block all regular traffic within the area. Asida-Asidora, prepare to send in the rapid response force … Boss, give me two more baskets of buns … Ah, I used the wrong channel …"
This girl is still eating! You will scare the boss to the ground!! He will definitely be scared to the ground!!
At this moment, at the scene of the robbery.
"Very good, behave yourselves. If you cooperate, you will be able to live!"
"It would be strange if we could live!"
My sister, who already knew the result of Lin Xue's analysis through the mental connection, said in her heart. Then, she concentrated and paid close attention to the movements of the three people.
As long as there was a random trigger point, chaos would break out.
Soon, the trigger point was created.
There was a suppressed sob in the crowd. It was a little girl who looked like she was still in junior high school. Under great pressure, she finally couldn't help but let out a cry.
"Well, this is voluntary," the bearded robber pretentiously shrugged, "I have always been a man of my words …"
He said in a regretful tone, as if he was really sorry for what he was about to do. Then, he raised the gun in his hand and pointed it at the crowd.
Then, "Bang — —"
The sudden explosion made everyone shudder, and many people almost cried out in alarm. But soon, they realized that the situation was different from what they had expected.
The little girl was still crouching on the ground, safe and sound.
The gun had exploded.
The destroyed gun fell to the ground. The bearded man, who was still arrogant a second ago, stared blankly at his bloody right hand, as if he hadn't realized what had happened.
"Squeak …"
When everyone fell into a brief moment of silence, such an abnormal sound suddenly rang from above. A strong sense of crisis suddenly flashed in his heart, causing the bearded man to involuntarily throw himself to the side. In the next second, a huge crystal chandelier that was used as an ornament fell to the place where he originally stood. The scattered glass shards bloomed like fireworks, and eighty percent of them hit the direction of the robbers. However, the latter were obviously not ordinary people. They were quite agile and avoided the beautiful but fatal crystal fireworks.
The crisis was not over yet!
This intuition suddenly flashed across the bearded man's mind as he narrowly avoided the huge crystal chandelier. Years of training in life and death situations made him predict that the next fatal accident was about to happen. Although he didn't know where it would come from, he decisively rolled on the ground and escaped his original position as fast as he could.
The sense of crisis slightly weakened, but … … in the next second, it struck again!
The originally sturdy marble floor suddenly had a few wide cracks. At the moment when the bearded man left, a big hole collapsed with a "boom". Then, from the hole came a burst of exclamations from the next floor. But it sounded like only exclamations. It seemed that no one was injured in this accident.
It seemed that this series of accidents were aimed at one person.
All of this happened in a matter of seconds. By the time someone reacted, the bearded man had already encountered several fatal crises that could kill an ordinary person.
"Black Snake … …"
As soon as a robber with a monster mask opened his mouth, the bearded man called Black Snake suddenly shouted, "Run! They may have already come in! "
If the first explosion of the gun could be described as bad luck, then the following chandelier was already somewhat suspicious. And the accident that the ground collapsed under his feet just now proved something.
If it was an ordinary person, perhaps they could reluctantly treat all of this as an accident. But the bearded man was not an ordinary person. He also knew that there was a great possibility that another group of extraordinary people would be drawn out today. So when he was entangled with bad luck one after another, he immediately thought, "Shit!"
The two monster masks looked at each other and then did not hesitate to split up and escape.
At this time, the ordinary people around also reacted. Although they were stunned by the series of accidents, but other than a demi-immortal who could calmly think about how the criminal could more efficiently complete the crime after a robbery in his own commercial building, no one would be stupid enough to discuss probability and the quality of XX commercial building at this time. In an instant, chaos completely broke out.
The crowd screamed and scattered in all directions. Many people were still running away while looking up worriedly to see if a chandelier would fall from the sky, or if a big hole would appear in the ground under their feet. In less than ten seconds, the small area had become deserted.
Only the bearded man stood in the middle as if facing a great enemy, ready to dodge at any time, and the long-haired woman who had already stood up and held the hands of the two little girls.
Mystic-type ability. The bearded man knew that he was most likely targeted by a Mystic-type ability user. In the face of this kind of invisible ability, as long as he was targeted, escaping would not solve any problems. The only way was to fight the other party head-on.
Now it seemed that the ability user should be the long-haired girl in front of him who always had a gentle smile on her face. But what was with the two little girls?
Could it be that the Esper team had two new Espers at such a young age? And to be brought to carry out such a mission … … Were they also strong?
