This securities brokerage has more than 30 big clients. Although Ma Yunfei is not very familiar with these people, they are all on the second floor, so he will see them all along.
Among these thirty-odd wealthy households, only one person was tall and burly, and that was the man with the potbelly.
It seems that General Belly and Ma Yunfei are natural enemies; they disliked each other from the very first time they met.
Ma Yunfei thought bitterly: "General Belly, General Belly, I have no grudge against you in this life or the next, so why are you so jealous of me?"
Ma Yunfei thought to himself: When we were eating at that small restaurant, General Belly must have realized that those two robbers were no good, so he deliberately mentioned how Ma Yunfei had made his fortune and even described his appearance. He was obviously betraying him.
The short robber walked in carrying three boxed lunches in a plastic bag.
The three of them started eating.
While eating, Ma Yunfei thought: If only someone could come in right now, he could give them a wink and a hint, and that would let them know he had been kidnapped.
No matter who you are, you're smarter than that wild girl; she's just too naive.
Speak of the devil, and he appears. The old man pushed open the door and poked his head in. Seeing someone in the room, he said awkwardly, "Little Ma, are you busy?"
Ma Yunfei turned his head and quickly said, "No rush."
As she spoke, she blinked repeatedly and pursed her lips.
The old man was an extremely clever man. When he saw Ma Yunfei blinking and gesturing, he knew something was wrong.
He glanced at the two robbers and saw that they had fierce faces and menacing eyes, so he knew that Ma Yunfei had been kidnapped by these two guys.
The old man had never seen anything like this before, and his legs suddenly went weak. He calmed himself down and said, "Little Ma, the market is about to open. If you know of any good stocks, just say so so I can make a little money too."
Ma Yunfei sighed inwardly, thinking: "Grandpa, all you care about is getting rich. Don't you realize I've been kidnapped?"
"Don't worry, sir. I'll definitely let you know if I find any good stocks."
The old man quickly turned his head back and ran downstairs.
He rushed into Manager Wang's office, terrified, and said, "Manager, something terrible has happened! Ma Yunfei has been kidnapped by two robbers!"
Manager Wang was sitting at his desk, calmly picking his teeth with a toothpick in his hand. Upon hearing the old man's words, he quickly dropped the toothpick and asked nervously, "Where are the robbers?"
"Two robbers were in Ma Yunfei's VIP room, holding him hostage on either side."
Manager Wang asked in confusion, "How did you know they were robbers?"
"When I entered Ma Yunfei's VIP room, he winked and gestured at me, clearly implying that he had been kidnapped. Moreover, the two men were staring at me menacingly. Luckily, I was quick-witted and pretended to be fine. I exchanged a few pleasantries with Ma Yunfei and then left."
Manager Wang immediately grabbed the phone on the table and called the police.
Less than ten minutes later, three police cars with sirens blaring stopped in front of the securities brokerage, and more than a dozen police officers jumped out of the cars.
Manager Wang waited anxiously at the main entrance and hurriedly said, "Two robbers have kidnapped one of my clients in the VIP room on the second floor."
A dozen or so police officers rushed up to the second floor and stopped at the bottom of the stairs.
The corridor on the second floor was quiet.
The people in the other large rooms were quietly evacuated.
At this moment, the two robbers heard the police sirens.
The short robber asked in confusion, "Damn it, how did the police find us?"
The tall robber said dismissively, "The police aren't coming for the two of us."
"Wait a minute, the sirens stopped at the entrance of the securities brokerage. Something must have happened there, and it wasn't aimed at us. Could there be someone else doing something there?"
The short robber opened the door a crack, poked half his head out, glanced into the corridor, and said nervously, "Damn it, the corridor is quiet, something's wrong."
The tall robber asked Ma Yunfei menacingly, "Did you call the police?"
Ma Yunfei explained, feeling wronged, "I was under your supervision the whole time. Besides, how could I call the police? There's no phone here."
The short robber thought for a moment and said, "Damn it, I know, it must have been that old man who realized something was wrong and called the police."
The tall robber walked to the window, looked outside for a while, and said, "Damn it, I can't see the road from here."
The short robber had been peering out the door when suddenly he exclaimed, "The police have gone up to the second floor and are lying in ambush at the stairwell. Just now, I saw a wide-brimmed hat stick out and then retract."
Just then, a loudspeaker blared from the stairwell: "We are the police. You are surrounded. If you want to live, come out now. Our policy is to surrender leniently and resist severely!"
The loudspeaker announced it three times in a row.
The short robber asked tremblingly, "Brother, we're in deep trouble this time, what should we do?"
The tall robber said menacingly, "With this kid in our hands, the police won't dare to rush in rashly. We'll use him as a shield."
The tall robber walked to the door and shouted through the crack, "Get back right now, give us a police car and let us leave. If you don't agree, we'll kill the hostage."
About five minutes later, the police loudspeaker blared again: "Listen up, we can give you a police car, on the condition that you do not harm the hostages."
The short robber ran to the window, glanced outside, and said fearfully, "Brother, there seems to be a sniper outside. If we show our faces, we'll get our heads blown off."
The tall robber pondered for a moment, then ordered Ma Yunfei, "Take off your clothes and pants."
Ma Yunfei asked, puzzled, "Brother, what do you mean by that?"
"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and take off your clothes."
Ma Yunfei took off his pants and coat.
The tall robber also took off his pants and coat and put on Ma Yunfei's clothes.
Ma Yunfei understood that the tall robber was trying to impersonate him to escape police pursuit.
The tall robber put on Ma Yunfei's clothes and pants, and muttered, "Damn it, why aren't you taller? Look, these clothes are too tight on me."
The shorter robber asked, puzzled, "Brother, what do you mean by this?"
"Brother, you don't understand, I can't explain it to you clearly. Just do as I say."
The tall robber tied Ma Yunfei up, blindfolded him, and gagged him.
The taller robber pulled a pair of black silk stockings from his pocket and said to the shorter robber, "Quickly cover your face with the silk stockings, just cut two holes to leave your eyes out."
The two covered their faces with silk stockings, leaving only their eyes visible.
The tall robber ordered, "I am that guy now. You escort me from behind, hold a knife to my neck, and remember: once we're in the police car, you sit in the driver's seat and drive like the wind."
