Soon, the pizza was ready.
All the ready-made pizza were packed in boxes and sent by a police officer into an RV that served as a temporary command center.
At this time, the sheriff and a few key members of the police department were holding the layout of the bank and studying the next battle plan.
In the RV, in addition to the police officers and the sheriff, the female anchor who had been released was there, too.
Now, the windows of the bank were filled with posters all over the place so the situation inside the bank could not be seen from the outside.
They could only try their best to understand the situation from the mouth of the female anchor who had been released.
They asked her about the general situation inside and had people take a statement with her before they could rest.
They were going to start deploying their next rescue operation.
“Which box of pizza is equipped with a bug and a miniature camera?”
The sheriff looked at the twelve boxes of pizza on the table and asked seriously.
The policeman who delivered the pizza opened the top box.
On the lid of this box of pizza, there was a small interlayer. In the interlayer, there was a bug and a pinhole camera.
The technology was so advanced.
The high-tech products used by the police were more advanced than people thought.
Things like bugs and tiny pinhole cameras could be designed very small and simple.
For example, the Soviet Union gave the American ambassador a wooden American emblem as a gift.
When the American ambassador returned to the embassy, he hung the emblem in his office.
From the end of February 1945, this US national emblem with the Soviet “Golden Lip” bug inside had stayed in the most secret office of the US Embassy.
It took eight years to find out.
These pizza boxes had a mezzanine space of only four or five millimeters. At first glance, this box looked just like any other box.
It was completely undetectable that there was a mezzanine here.
On the pizza lid, there was only a small hole left for the miniature pinhole camera to capture.
Without careful observation, one would not have been able to see that there was something inside.
“Well done!”
“Even if that kid did his homework, he would not have thought that we would use so many high-tech things to deal with him!”
The sheriff looked at the hidden layer and nodded in satisfaction.
After finished speaking, the sheriff switched the first box of pizza and the second box of pizza.
He placed the pizza with a bug and camera in the second position.
At this moment, some police officers were puzzled.
“Sir, why did you switch the two boxes of pizza?”
“If these two boxes of pizza are all the same, the robber would probably take the top box directly.”
“My purpose is to prevent the pizza with bug and camera from falling into the hands of the robber.”
“After all, if that box of pizza falls into the hands of the robber, it will naturally increase the probability of being discovered.”
The sheriff spoke slowly.
When he spoke, there was a trace of a confident smile on his face.
After all, the sheriff was from a criminal investigation background. His control over these details was naturally something that ordinary people could not compare to.
“So that’s how it is!”
When the police officer heard this, he could not help but nodded.
At that moment, he also had an expression of praise for the sherrif’s wit.
“Find someone change his clothes and send the pizza in.”
The sheriff gave an order to the police officer beside him.
“Yes!”
The police officer replied and quickly went to prepare.
About three minutes later, a police officer dressed as a deliery man carried twelve boxes of pizza and walked towards the bank’s entrance.
The reporters and cameramen followed from afar.
In the bank.
Jon held a shotgun and sat beside the bank’s entrance. He had been observing the police officers’ actions through the cracks between the posters.
Jon had seen the man in delivery man clothes carrying the pizza as he walked toward the bank.
“Sunny, come here!”
Jon stood up and shouted at the lobby manager, Sunny, who was among the hostages in the waiting area.
At this time, the hostages had gradually changed from being quiet at first to discussing the matter in a low voice.
As Sunny heard Jon calling him, he shivered and got up quickly and ran over.
All the hostages in the bank were already scared out of their wits by Jon.
At the end of this drill, many of them would probably never work in the bank again.
After all, they would never feel safe in the bank again.
Their minds would play back today’s experience at any time.
But… what did this have to do with him.
He was not their colleague.
As long as he could get the five million reward from the system, even if he saved it and did nothing, it would still be higher than his salary.
So, Jon did not care what they thought.
Whether they were afraid of him or not was not something that Jon needed to consider.
“Brother, why are you looking for me?”
When the lobby manager, Sunny, heard Jon called out to him, he rushed over and looked at Jon with a smile on his face.
This guy was a bully.
In the past, he liked to flirt with female employees and bully subordinates.
But now… his attitude towards Jon was the most flattering.
“Dinner is here. Come with me to get it.”
Jon glanced at Sunny and spoke calmly.
There was no expression on his face when he spoke.
It was obvious that Jon could see the nature of this person.
As long as he had a gun, he would not be afraid of him thinking of other things.
…
At the bank entrance.
The policeman dressed as a delivery man was holding the pizza and looking into the bank.
This was a rare opportunity to get close to the bank without angering the robbers.
Hence, these experienced policemen naturally wanted to take this opportunity to quickly understand the situation inside the bank.
After all, the scope of the camera was too wide. Seeing the actual situation with their own eyes was extremely beneficial for them to rescue the hostages.
“Give me the pizza!”
Just as the policeman was looking into the bank, a voice suddenly rang out.
The sudden voice caused the highly focused policeman to tremble in fear.
Earlier, he had been focused on observing the situation in the bank through the gap between the posters and had not noticed that there was a person standing behind the bank’s door.
He raised his head to look.
That person was wearing the bank staff’s clothes so it was obvious that he was not a robber.
The real robber was standing behind the employee with a gun in his hand. The black muzzle of the gun was pointed at the employee’s head. He did not move at all.
“Oh, okay!”
The policeman held the pizza boxes in his hand and was about to hand it over.
An accident happened.
The opening of the door that was chained was too small. The pizza could not enter.
