Chapter 118: The Lines Sound Familiar
Bai Shishi nodded in agreement. "You make a good point!"
"Also, I remember hearing on TV that stock rights can be acquired. Whether or not Wang Quan is an insider, can you find a way to acquire the stock rights?" Lin Tian asked.
Bai Shishi suddenly came to her senses and nodded. "I can acquire some of the stock held by individual investors and Wang Quan!"
"Then what are you waiting for? It’s better to strike first, quickly acquire them. Even if Wang Quan turns out to be an insider, we won’t have to worry. If he’s not, all the better!" Lin Tian wondered how women think; something so simple to solve had to be overthought.
"You’ve really reminded me!" Bai Shishi stood up excitedly. "Let’s go, accompany me to the bank!"
"Why?"
"To withdraw money and acquire the stock rights!"
"..." Lin Tian’s face was full of black lines, with sweat as big as beans rolling down his temple.
I’ll never give advice again; every time I do, I end up finding things for myself to do.
This isn’t the first time...
Following Bai Shishi out of the office, the two of them headed straight for the bank.
At the entrance of the bank, Lin Tian suddenly stopped. "You go withdraw the money, I’ll smoke a cigarette at the door!"
Bai Shishi walked into the bank alone, while Lin Tian took out a cigarette and smoked at the entrance.
"Move quickly during the operation, five minutes, we have to move the target!"
Just as Lin Tian had taken two puffs, he suddenly heard whispers coming from a distance.
Since he was hospitalized last time, not only had his eyes and body changed, but his ears had too, allowing him to hear sounds from further away than before.
"Huh!"
Lin Tian immediately sensed something was wrong, and under the cover of smoking, his dark eyes sneaked towards the direction of the sound.
He saw two young men wearing baseball caps with masks on their faces, leaning against the corner wall, seemingly talking but actually scanning the bank lobby with their eyes.
Because the bank was crowded, and they were standing in a corner, if he hadn’t heard them speak, Lin Tian wouldn’t have noticed these two at all.
"They seemed to be saying something about a five-minute operation, to hurry up!"
Lin Tian had only heard the whispers vaguely, not clearly. If it wasn’t for his extraordinary hearing, an ordinary person wouldn’t have heard it at all!
Lin Tian suddenly found the words familiar: "This is almost like the movie lines for robbing a bank!"
In an instant, the words "bank robbery" flashed in Lin Tian’s mind, and he realized what these weird young men might be planning next.
"No, I have to warn Miss Bai quickly!"
If they really encounter a bank robbery, the robbers would certainly be desperate criminals, posing extreme danger to everyone in the bank.
Who knows if they have guns or if they would take hostages while resisting the police.
Lin Tian looked up at the entrance of the bank’s VIP passage, seeing that Bai Shishi hadn’t come out after going in, which left him uncertain. The bank’s VIP passage is exclusively for wealthy people, ordinary people can’t enter. If he went in rashly, he might even be mistaken for a robber and taken away by the police.
Unable to go in to find Bai Shishi, the only option was to wait in the bank lobby, hoping she comes out quickly.
To avoid drawing attention and being discovered by the hidden robbers in the lobby, Lin Tian moved to the rest area.
He saw a few people scattered around the waiting area, presumably waiting for their turn, and it seemed like there weren’t many people around since it was the afternoon.
Finding a spot near the corner, Lin Tian quietly began observing the bank lobby.
This bank occupied a large area, with five service windows, four ATMs, and two exits—one being the main bank entrance and the other a small exit by the ATM area.
There were two middle-aged security guards in the lobby, but seeing their bloated bellies, their combat ability was almost negligible!
Aside from that, there were the people handling their business at the bank, as well as the two young men wearing baseball caps who Lin Tian had noticed earlier.
"Could it be a joke?"
After all, Lin Tian had only heard one sentence, and was making a big fuss; what if it was just a joke?
"I’ll know by watching them!" His eyes slightly narrowed, and the scene in Lin Tian’s eyes gradually changed, revealing the two young men in baseball caps as their clothes gradually faded from view, leaving them completely exposed in his sight.
"Gulp!"
Lin Tian swallowed hard. If he wasn’t mistaken, that black object was a gun.
"They have guns!" With his eyes returning to normal, Lin Tian’s hands were sweating out of fear.
This wasn’t a mere robbery; this was a group of armed criminals.
"Could they have accomplices?" Lin Tian quickly noticed that there weren’t just two people wearing baseball caps in the bank lobby.
He spotted two more individuals wearing baseball caps, similar in style to the ones worn by the young men, but in different colors.
"There are four of them; they must be accomplices!" Lin Tian took another closer look at the two men in front of him, noting that each had a knife hidden at their waist.
"Come out quickly, come out quickly!" Lin Tian sat anxiously on the chair, silently urging within.
If Bai Shishi could come out sooner, they could leave this troublesome place sooner.
Perhaps Lin Tian’s silent urging worked, as a familiar figure appeared in the VIP passageway, with Bai Shishi carrying a black suitcase as she exited.
Seeing this, Lin Tian inwardly thought it was bad, abruptly rising from his seat and quickly heading toward Bai Shishi.
Possibly due to Bai Shishi carrying the black suitcase, she walked quickly, her high heels clicking crisply and urgently on the shiny floor tiles.
The sound of these high heels only made Lin Tian even more uneasy inside, and he quickly reached Bai Shishi, grabbing her hand under her astonished gaze.
"Let’s go quickly!"
"You... what are you doing, let go!" Bai Shishi’s beautiful eyes furrowed, and she angrily reprimanded!
Right in public.
Is Lin Tian out of his mind again?
To just go up and grab her hand, leaving Bai Shishi quite dumbfounded!
"We must leave here at once, there’s no time to explain!"
With anxiety in his heart, Lin Tian didn’t bother explaining to her questioning and dragged Bai Shishi toward the door.
"Slap!" Just as Lin Tian was about to pull Bai Shishi’s hand and leave, he suddenly felt his hand being slapped!
"Lin Tian, what are you doing? If you keep this up, I will get angry!" Bai Shishi’s cold, beautiful eyes were filled with anger.
"I wasn’t deliberately holding your hand..."
"Sigh, I don’t even know how to explain, just let’s leave here as soon as possible!"
Glancing occasionally at the men in baseball caps, Lin Tian was overwhelmingly anxious.
If they didn’t leave now, soon it would be impossible to get out...
