Chapter 355 Sneaky Attack



Chapter 355: Sneaky Attack 

"Hurry up!" the leader yelled at the cashier and pointed his gun at them. "Boss." Two men returned with ten cartons full of money with a pallet separating each layer of one million dollars. "How much is that?" the boss asked. "One pallet has one million, and each carton has 5 pallets. There are ten cartons, so 50 million dollars," a female robber replied. "Only 50 million? This is one of the major banks of this state, and you are telling me there was only 50 million in cash?!" the leader yelled. "There is more We only opened one vault, and there are 9 more vaults," another replied. "Then why are you here?! Get them loaded!" "There are no more cartons available." "Oh!" The leader exclaimed but soon sighed and said, "Then you could have informed me via the walkie-talkie you have been given." The leader hung his gun on the belt around his waist and took out a small tennis ball-sized device from his pocket. …" Rudy carefully watched as the leader placed the ball on one of the cartons and tapped it three times. The ball opened with a mechanical sound and generated an invisible wave that only Rudy could see. Then, the ball hovered in the air and flashed a bright light that blinded everyone except Rudy. 

The ball and the money from the cartons had disappeared into thin air, and the empty pallets fell on the cartons. "Go now!" He turned to one of the robbers and said, "You, go and check what the other two are doing! Taking out gold was supposed to be easier than taking out the cash!" 

The two robbers left with empty cartons, and the third one rushed to check up on the other two robbers who had gone to steal the gold from the vault. 

'What was that?!' Rudy yelled inwardly. I have many plans, which one should I use?' Rudy once again scanned the bank to see the changes. 'What are their weapons? Forget about advanced technology, they look futuristic as though they belong to a game. I can't sense any electric frequencies coming out of them, so I can't cause them to malfunction: 

After a few minutes, the robber who had gone to check up on them returned and said, "Sir, there is no one inside." 

"What?!" the leader exclaimed. 

"Their bags and equipment are in front of the vault, but they are nowhere to be seen," he informed. "Was the vault open?" "Yes. The vault was wide open, but they weren't there. I even called them, but I didn't receive a response," he calmly responded. The leader grabbed his talking device but couldn't connect to the missing robbers. "What should we do now, boss?" "Nothing! We don't have time to worry about all that!" He turned to the other robbers and said, "Two of you go and start the job." However, none of them wanted to go, but they had no other option but to follow the leaders' orders. A few more minutes later, the two robbers came with fifty million cash in the cartons. 

The leader did the same thing he did earlier and placed the ball on top of one of the cartons. He tapped, and the ball began to hover in the air. Soon, it flashed a bright light and blinded everyone. But they knew what was going to happen, so they all closed their eyes as soon as he placed the ball on top of the cartons. Rudy hacked into the equipment in the van and quietly disabled the jamming. Then, he triggered the alarm of the bank, which obviously freaked everyone out. 

They opened their eyes in fear and expected to be shot down mercilessly by the robbers. However, all the robbers had fallen unconscious on the floor for unknown reasons. 

'Well, that was so easy that I feel like stupid for planning moves ahead,' Rudy sighed inwardly. Since everyone had closed their eyes, Rudy could freely use his powers without anyone noticing. On top of that, he used the least noticeable power—telekinesis, and raised all the robbers into the air and slammed them on the floor so hard that even their advanced armored suit couldn't protect them from the impact. 

The two robbers who weren't present there came rushing after hearing the alarm and saw the rest of their teammates were knocked unconscious. 

"What happened here?!" one of them yelled. They took out their guns and pointed at the people around. But as soon as one of them got near Rudy and Maria, Maria kicked him on the bank of his knee and grabbed him from the neck before pinning him down on the floor. She snatched the gun and shot the remaining robber's on the legs and shoulders, avoiding the vital spots. "You—!"The robber she had pinned down tried to attack Maria with a dagger but grabbed his hand and crushed it so hard that his bones had become powder. However, he restored it soon after and crushed it again, only to restore it for the last time. 

Everyone got up and dashed to the exit door, but it was still locked. "Why is the door locked?! Open it!" they yelled. "We can't allow anyone to leave unless the cops arrive and investigate everything. It's part of our regulation," the manager of the bank asserted in a neutral tone. "Who cares about your regulation! Our lives are in danger here! Let us leave, or I will sue the bank!" one of the rich old shouted. 

"That's not possible. You can yell as much as you want. The situation is currently under control, so—" 

The lockdown suddenly deactivated, and the cops rushed in armed with guns, shields, and armors. 

They spread it in the bank before asking anything. But it was obvious at first glance that the people in armed suits were the robbers. 

Rudy casually leaned to the wall and scanned the area to search for the guard who was with the robbers. 

"There is still one left. And I have got special plans for him." === Thanks, @Carver_Nitsua, for the gift!
