They didn’t see it at all.
There were two robbers in the hall who were disguised by the security guards.
And the two real robbers were in the safe, melting the gold with a furnace.
Only the commissioner found something wrong.
After all, the specially made gold was not small.
It was impossible to fit in such a backpack.
However, even though the commissioner found something wrong, he did not provide information to the commander.
After all, he was the referee in this drill.
In order to be fair and just, he would not provide information to the police officers.
In the bank.
At this time, Jon had already started his next plan.
“Venus, take four hostages to the conference room on the second floor. If the police attack the first floor, you will directly kill one hostage, give the warning at the surveillance camera.”
Jon said to Venus Alice who was beside him.
The hostages were divided into two groups.
Five were left in the hall on the first floor, while the other four were taken up to the second floor by Venus Alice.
This way, the hostages would be scattered, and it would bring a lot of pressure to the police.
This way, even if the police wanted to attack, they would have to attack the first and second floors together.
Otherwise, no matter which floor they attacked, the robbers on the other floor would attack the hostages.
“Roger.”
Regarding Jon’s orders, Venus Alice did not have any doubts. She brought the four hostages upstairs.
In the temporary command room.
“Sir, the robbers have made a move again.”
Looking at the surveillance footage, a technician immediately reported the situation.
Hearing that, the commander immediately walked over.
Looking at the surveillance footage, he saw a robber with a gun leading a few hostages to the second floor. The commander’s expression became solemn once again.
Jon really did not rest for a moment. Every move could make it more difficult for the commander.
As the commander of the police, He naturally knew that Jon’s goal was to make it more difficult for the police.
However, he didn’t understand.
Why would Jon scatter the hostages after robbing them? Shouldn’t he be planning how to escape now?
However, Jon didn’t seem to have any thoughts of escaping.
Could it be that he wanted to stay at the bank and confront the police?
If that were the case, it would be disadvantageous to the robbers.
After all, there were many police officers, and they could completely surround the bank in shifts.
As time passed, the robbers’ spirits would be greatly diminished, and they would be exposed.
In other words, the longer the confrontation with the police lasted, the less likely the robbers would be able to escape.
The commander looked at the surveillance footage. One of the robbers brought four hostages to a conference room on the second floor.
There were surveillance cameras in this conference room.
The police could still monitor the situation in the conference room through the surveillance cameras.
“What should we do, sir? Should we launch an attack?”
A police officer asked.
“They have too many hostages. If we launch an attack now, it will easily threaten the lives of the hostages.”
“The best way is to let the robbers leave the bank and reduce the number of hostages. Then, we’ll think of a way to capture them in one fell swoop.”
“Wait for the SWAT team to come over, and have their negotiators go and negotiate with the robbers to see if they want a means of transportation.”
The commander spoke.
“Yes, sir.”, the police officer responded.
The he nodded.
He could not guess what Jon was thinking at all.
For example, deliberately letting them see the surveillance footage.
For example, when he was about to escape, he wanted to confront the police.
It had been less than two hours since the start of the drill.
Since the robbers had hostages, they were still in a tense state at this time.
It was not a good time for the police to launch an attack.
At this time, the only thing they could do was to let the negotiator communicate with the robbers first to appease the robbers’ emotions.
According to psychology, under the circumstances of being surrounded by the police, the psychological pressure of the robbers would become greater and greater.
As time passed, their high vigilance would slowly tire.
The longer the confrontation, the easier it would be to reveal flaws.
Moreover, many robbers would not be able to bear the mental breakdown and directly surrender after their mental strength was exhausted.
Therefore, in bank robberies, when the police surrounded the robbers, they would slowly waste time and wear down the robbers’ mental strength.
However, the commander did not want to surround the robbers in the bank for a long time.
Because he found that Jon seemed to be trying to stall for time.
With Jon’s behavior, there must be some kind of plan.
Of course, he couldn’t let the other side get what they wanted.
So, he was going to send a negotiator to see if he could find anything.
In the bank, Jon was sitting in a chair.
Beside him were the two trembling security guards.
Jon looked up at the time. It was 3:40 in the afternoon.
When they started, it was 2:00 sharp.
From the moment they had attacked until now, only an hour and 40 minutes had passed.
At this moment, from Jon’s walkie-talkie, Leon Evans’s voice rang out. “Boss, the SWAT team has arrived.”
He was on the second floor monitoring the police’s movements.
When the SWAT team arrived, he had immediately noticed and reported to Jon.
“Got it.”, Jon replied, but he didn’t do anything.
He still sat quietly.
He knew very well that with the current situation, even if the SWAT team came, they wouldn’t dare to attack rashly.
After all, he had nine hostages in his hands, and he had scattered the hostages. It would be too difficult to attack rashly.
But the bank staff didn’t think so.
Among them, the SWAT team a group of very powerful people. Now that the SWAT was coming, perhaps they would be rescued soon.
Therefore, after hearing the arrival of the SWAT team, they were more or less felt relieved.
However, they were still under Jon’s control. Even if they relaxed a little, they did not dare to show it too obviously.
After the SWAT team arrived, they began to deploy. The snipers occupied the advantageous sniping spots nearby, while the remaining SWAT team members were fully armed and ready for orders.
“Sir, what’s the situation now?”
The SWAT team leader came to the temporary command room and asked the commander about the situation.
After all, he had just arrived and did not know the situation yet.
“There are five robbers. One is an explosives expert, one is a computer expert, one is a sharpshooter, one is a super driver, and the other is a highly intelligent robber.”
“Now they control nine hostages and split them into two groups. Four hostages are in a conference room on the second floor, and the remaining five hostages are in the hall on the first floor.”
“These hostages are all guarded by armed robbers.”
The commander briefly described the current situation.
As he spoke, the SWAT team leader looked at the surveillance footage.
