Chapter 2378 2390 [The bullet shot the silver bullet]
The terrified criminal looked on the verge of exploding, as if ready to kill everyone with a burst of shooting.
Vermouth and Shuichi Akai once again felt deep pressure. They wanted to step forward to stop it, but they were concerned about the other party, so their actions were inevitably delayed.
At this moment, a figure suddenly turned around and pounced on the gangster - the lobby manager was putting money into his bag under the threat of the gunman and was closest to the gangster.
Now, taking advantage of the gangster's confusion, he acted decisively, pounced on the gangster, grabbed the gangster's arm, and used the knowledge he learned in the company training when he entered the industry to force the gangster to the ground.
During the struggle, the criminal clenched his fingers nervously, pulled the trigger, and the gun fired with a "bang".
A burning smell came out of Shuichi Akai's knitted hat - a bullet grazed his hat, hit the wall, and bounced to the side with a ding.
Akai Shuichi: "..."
Vermouth: "..." So it was not her who was targeted today, but the FBI? ...That's right, she fully supports Uzo's heroic act today.
It's a pity that the bullet missed the target by a bit. If it had hit his forehead...
Thinking of this, Vermouth's lips twitched and she almost smiled, but she quickly came to her senses, forced herself to suppress the corners of her mouth, and tried to maintain the appearance of a frightened guest.
Before he could fully comprehend his expression, there was another "bang" - during the scuffle, the lobby manager threw the gangster to the ground, but the fight between the two was obviously not over. In the chaos, the second shot was fired suddenly and hit the ceiling at an angle.
Vermouth suddenly sensed something and instinctively took a step back. Almost at the same time, a bullet bounced off the ceiling with a scorching wind, hitting her feet hard, and bounced to the side with a ding.
Vermouth: "..."
The corner of her eye twitched, and a sweet murderous aura rose from her instinctively... Then she took a deep breath and calmed herself down skillfully.
“Normal, this is normal.” Vermouth gritted her teeth. “Uzo doesn’t need allies. He prefers enemies who can torment him… And obviously, compared to Akai Shuichi’s direct and fatal blow, my ammunition is not very powerful. It’s just a little prank. It doesn’t matter even if it hits him.”
"And no matter how good you are at weaving the stage, it's hard to control this kind of stray bullet. This is probably just a small random accident."
Although this reason may seem a bit far-fetched at first, when I think about the difficulty of revenge on Wu Zuo and the consequences of arguing with Wu Zuo about such a small matter...
Vermouth decisively chose to believe.
But that didn't stop her from staring intently behind the counter, preparing for the next attack.
Not long after, the gun fired again. Vermouth looked around and immediately prepared to avoid stray bullets. However, this time, no bullets seemed to fly out.
"How, how, how could this happen..."
At some point, the scuffle died down, replaced by a terrified male voice.
The next moment, the lobby manager stood up behind the counter in a panic. He looked down at the person on the ground, then looked for help at the president of this branch, his immediate superior, and said blankly, "...he suddenly stopped moving."
…
A few minutes later, a piece of news popped up and quietly appeared on the Mihua News website.
"The bank employee acted bravely, and the murderer suffered the consequences!"
On the way, Jiang Xia, who was wandering around under the pretext of "looking for a new doctor", opened his cell phone and glanced down.
"Something happened." Jiang Xia said to the ghosts clinging to his shoulders, "We have nothing to do anyway, let's go and take a look."
The police and doctors also arrived at the same time as the enthusiastic detective.
Amid the blaring of sirens, the male salesperson who tried to attack the gangster from behind with a stool but was discovered by the gangster was put on a stretcher and taken into the ambulance.
The gunman was not so lucky and was carried away by the police in a horizontal position.
…
The bank entrance with two people missing.
Inspector Megure looked at the messy scene and sighed heavily.
——It was barely a busy place, with shootings and robberies going on. You didn't even need to look outside to know that the reporters were definitely queuing outside again.
Just when I was worrying about it, suddenly the cordon outside the door was lifted, and someone walked in without hesitation, walking past the police officer standing guard there.
"Wait, we're still investigating here, prohibited..." Inspector Megure was cursing his subordinates for being distracted in his heart, but when he saw who was coming, his eyes lit up - it was Jiang Xia.
"Brother Jiang Xia!" Inspector Megure's stern voice suddenly changed and became full of cordiality.
He came closer affectionately and was about to ask habitually, "Brother Jiang Xia, what do you think?" However, before he opened his mouth, Inspector Megure was stunned.
Inspector Megure: "..." What do you mean? Today is not a murder case. Today is just an ordinary bank robbery. The context is clear and the result is clear... It's just that the incident itself is not easy to handle.
But since Jiang Xia was here, he still couldn't control his mouth. Before he came to his senses, he instinctively introduced the previous situation.
Finally, Inspector Megure pointed to the stretcher that had gone away and said, "Mr. Maejima, who tried to attack the criminal from behind but was shot by the criminal, was hit in the side. Fortunately, the bullet missed the vital part and was not fatal. As for the others, they were just a little frightened and not seriously injured. They are still being questioned inside."
Jiang Xia nodded: "Let's go in and take a look first."
Inspector Megure was stunned: "..." "Say it later"? What do you mean "say it later"? Could it be that... Brother Jiang Xia thinks there is something wrong with this?
After realizing this, when Inspector Megure looked at the bank lobby again, his eyes suddenly became sharp.
At the same time, thinking of the group of reporters outside, he felt that his head seemed to hurt even more.
…
When he returned to the bank lobby and saw the witnesses clearly, Inspector Megure suddenly realized that this matter might not be simple.
The hall was in chaos just now, and he hadn't noticed it. Now he looked carefully and saw that there was an acquaintance in there - the school doctor of Teitan Middle School, Doctor Shinde.
Although there is no evidence, there seem to be many strange cases around this school doctor recently. Could this bank robbery case also be...
When Inspector Megure's mind was turning.
Beside him, Jiang Xia suddenly noticed something. He squatted down to adjust his shoelaces, picked up a ball of colorless and transparent murderous aura, and put it in his arms.
After receiving this unexpected little gift, Jiang Xia stood up, patted his clothes, and looked at the people sitting or standing nearby with satisfaction.
Then, in the most inconspicuous corner, I saw a passerby in a knitted hat who wanted to slip away before the police came, but suddenly remembered that the bank had all-round coverage of cameras, so he had to stay.
