Island Tycoon

Chapter 59 Hostage Exchange
"If you lose your old mother, dare to call the police." There was a burst of curses from the gangster.Then there were several gunshots, and the female staff member who called the police was lying in a pool of blood.

The leading gangster can speak Cantonese, but at this time he told a few of his subordinates in Vietnamese dialect, "Be quick and quick, count as much as you get, and you must give it up within 3 minutes."

"Brother, there are police!" The gangster who was in charge of guarding the door had already seen two uniformed policemen rushing over.

The bandit leader looked at the gold watch on his wrist. Before he came, he had already checked that the bank had at least 500 million in cash, but now they only loaded 300 million.

Everyone wants to put the money in their hearts. The problem is that every minute they delay, the probability of leaving safely will decrease. It is even a question of whether they can leave. The bandit leader reluctantly ordered: "There is no time, let's go." .”

boom! boom! boom!
"Ah—" the gangster in charge of guarding the door yelled, and then fell straight to the ground.I don't know if it was his bad luck, or the military and police who arrived were too accurate with their marksmanship, and they shot right between his eyebrows.

"Agou!!!" The bandit leader rushed to the gate, helped up the dead bandit, and shot back at him.Several other gangsters also rushed over and shot at the two military police one after another.

After a battle of guns, one of the military police was unfortunately shot, and his companions quickly dragged him down, using a shelter as a cover, and using a communication machine to request support from the headquarters.

"Brother, we have to leave quickly, the police have already arrived." A gangster persuaded.

"Let's go." The bandit leader gritted his teeth, covered his eyes for his stubborn companion, and rushed out first.

Just when the people promised by the bank thought that everything was over, the sound of police cars and a series of offensive and defensive gunshots came from the street.

The gangsters obviously failed to break through the police blockade, so they returned to the bank again, looking extremely embarrassed.

"Take a hostage!"

The most worrying thing finally happened, even though Ye Jingcheng deliberately hid in the back row of the crowd and hid Hu Yinmeng behind him.Perhaps it was because Hu Yinmeng's eye-catching aura was too strong, and the gangsters in charge of taking hostages set their sights on her at a glance.

"Don't move, you want to die, right?" Just as Ye Jingcheng wanted to stop him, he felt the coldness on his forehead. It was a pistol that was about to be pulled.

"Big brothers, listen to me, it's useless for you to catch her." Ye Jingcheng raised his hands and persuaded, "You can tell by her appearance that she is clumsy, and if she drags people down at a critical moment, then you won't be able to leave even if you want to." .”

"I'm a film producer on Hong Kong Island. A single movie earns tens of millions. It's best to use me as a hostage."

Seeing the doubts on the gangster's face, Ye Jingcheng knew that there was a great chance to replace Hu Yinmeng.In order to eliminate the other party's doubts, he said: "If you don't believe me, ask the people around you. The "Yin Yang Wrong" that was released in the past few days is one of my works."

"Yes, yes."

The one who spoke was the fat man squatting beside Ye Jingcheng, the manager of the VIP room.At this time, he was pointed at the head with a gun, and in order to get out of danger as soon as possible, he echoed: "He is the investor of that film, and the film has several million box office within three days of its release."

"If I had known, I would also follow your lead in filming. There is no point in making a living on the edge of a knife." At this moment, the leading gangster came over and said these words with no deep meaning.

Suddenly, the original smiling face of the bandit leader changed suddenly. He grabbed Ye Jingcheng by the collar, pointed a gun at his chin, and threatened, "Little boy, are you really not afraid of death?"

"Of course I'm afraid of death." Ye Jingcheng smiled calmly and said, "So I hope you will give me a chance to redeem this life with money after you escape."

"Hahaha, you're good enough." The bandit leader raised a thumbs up and said to his subordinates, "Let her go."

Hu Yinmeng was pushed back, and made eye contact with Ye Jingcheng during the process.The latter nodded to her and motioned her to hide in the crowd.

"what?"

At this moment, the bandit leader seemed to have discovered something.Picking up the fat man who was squatting beside Ye Jingcheng, he looked at the ID card hanging on his chest, and said jokingly, "Yo, I didn't expect to be a bank manager."

Raising his hand, he ordered his subordinates: "Catch this fat man too."

"Don't catch me, don't catch me."

The manager kept shrinking back, trying to blend in with the crowd.It's a pity that the others seemed to have reached a tacit agreement early in the morning, and stepped aside one after another.Not only did it not let him achieve his goal, but it emptied him out.

"Several big brothers, it is of no use for you to catch me."

As if grasping at straws, the manager pointed at Hu Yinmeng, who had hid in the crowd again, and suggested, "Catch her if you want. She is a star from Dawan. Catching her is equivalent to international affairs, and the police will definitely attach great importance to it." this matter."

"You!!!" Ye Jingcheng clenched his fists and gave him a hard look.

After finally exchanging herself for Hu Yinmeng's safety, unexpectedly, this manager who is greedy for life and afraid of death puts Hu Yinmeng into a state of life and death again with a few words.

It's a pity that Ye Jingcheng was not allowed to act rashly with a gun behind him against his spine.

"Brother, I'm sorry." The bandit leader patted Ye Jingcheng on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Catch her here."

Ye Jingcheng and Hu Yinmeng were pushed together, Ye Jingcheng looked at her helplessly, and only hoped that this matter could end as he wished.

"Listen, people inside. You are surrounded. Immediately put down your weapons and come out to surrender. If there is no reply within 5 minutes, the police will take further action." The senior inspector in charge of this mission was persuading with a loudspeaker.

Instructed by the bandit leader, one of the gangsters went out and threatened: "Listen to me, we have dozens of hostages, one of them is the film producer Ye Jingcheng, and the other is Hu Yinmeng, the star of Dawan Bay. If If you don’t want any accidents for these two people, you’d better follow our orders.”

When you're done, make your offer, as with most movies.The gangsters opened their mouths and asked the police for 300 million cash and a vehicle.

"Go and check the information of these two people." The senior inspector put down the loudspeaker and instructed the police officers beside him.

If Ye Jingcheng walked out of the gate at this time, he would have seen at a glance that the senior inspector in charge of this operation was actually Ren Dahua's brother Ren Darong.

After getting the information of the two, Ren Darong pressed his temples with a headache.Originally, he thought the name Ye Jingcheng was familiar, but now he remembered that it was Ye Sheng that his younger brother often mentioned?He has been on the front pages of various newspapers recently.

Without him, the producer of Hong Kong Island's first million-dollar film.Although it has not been fully implemented, it can be said to be a foregone conclusion.

Furthermore, this woman named Hu Yinmeng is not only famous in Dawan, but also has a very special status and status.

If something really happened to these two people, let's not talk about the pressure of public opinion.At the very least, when he returned to the bureau, he would definitely be reported for negligence of responsibility. Disciplinary action was still a trivial matter, and he was most afraid of affecting his official career.

boom!
The gunshot came very suddenly, and the tense atmosphere at the scene escalated again, even causing many people to break out in cold sweat.Before everyone present could react, the gangster who was in charge of negotiating had already fallen.

"Who fired the shot!!!" Ren Darong's words were full of condemnation, and this move was undoubtedly a stab at him at a critical moment.

"Officer, it's...it's me." A police officer stood up and admitted his mistake with a face full of remorse, and he could vaguely see his hand holding the gun trembling slightly.

Seeing the situation, the gangster inside immediately fought back and dragged the injured gangster back to the lobby during the shootout.

"Listen, people inside, what happened just now was just a misunderstanding." Ren Darong picked up the loudspeaker, intending to explain the police officer's mistake.

"Brother, what should we do?" One of the gangsters timidly asked in panic.

"Abandon his old mother and play tricks with me?" The bandit leader twitched violently, and said incessantly, "Go catch someone and kill him in front of the police."

"what--"

A woman in the crowd was caught out, and a fat man behind her could be seen pushing her hands.Ye Jingcheng knew that the police had cornered this group of people.His original idea was to ensure safety through compromise, but now it seems that this may be difficult to achieve.

He can't do things he's not sure about.Thinking of this, Ye Jingcheng clenched his fists again, with an imperceptible fierce light in his eyes.

"mebuoc!"
