Chapter 108: Bank Heist

Because it was the first time robbing a bank.

The operation wasn't very smooth yet.

So Xu Mo could only imitate a bank‑robbing scene he had seen in a movie and shouted a line.

"Everyone, cover your heads and squat down, don't move, this is a bank robbery!"

"Right, it's a bank robbery! All of you squat properly!!," Yang Jingxuan also shouted.

Only, compared with Xu Mo.

Yang Jingxuan seemed even more excited.

After all, she had been looking forward to this since early morning.

This is a bank robbery, after all!

Real‑life GTA!!

Not being excited would be the strange thing.

The people in the Da Ting all froze for a moment.

Then they looked toward the two women and a man at the entrance.

But their gazes lingered on the three for only an instant before immediately shifting away.

Almost everyone in the bank.

didn't think Xu Mo and the others were robbing the bank.

Because the three looked nothing like desperate bank robbers.

In fact, everyone even treated Xu Mo and the others as lunatics.

"Haha... a bank robbery? Doesn't that only happen in movies?"

"What era is this, still robbing banks?"

"These three don't look like bank robbers at all; could they be mentally ill?"

"Obviously, of course; could a normal person rob a bank?"

"What a pity, so young and already messed up..."

"There doesn't seem to be a Mental Hospital nearby, where did these three come from?"

"Maybe they just developed a mental illness; should we call the Mental Hospital and have them taken back..."

"..."

People began exchanging remarks.

Every sentence was heard clearly by Xu Mo and the others.

"Xu Mo, they called us lunatics!" Yang Jingxuan, fuming, reported to Xu Mo.

Xu Mo's face darkened.

"I heard you."

After a pause, Xu Mo took off the backpack on his back.

From the backpack, he pulled out a bomb.

"My short fuse... damn it, all of you squat down! If anyone dares move again, I'll blow you all to pieces! I give you three seconds, everyone put your heads down and squat, or I'll pull the line!"

He almost shouted that.

People who a second ago were chatting and laughing.

were all stunned.

That tone... really lunatic?

Doesn't seem so.

Whether the bomb in Xu Mo's hand was real or fake.

People also didn't know.

They could, of course, choose to bet.

Bet that Xu Mo is a lunatic.

This is not a bank robbery at all.

But a lunatic's prank.

Bet that the bomb in Xu Mo's hand is fake.

It's just a dummy that looks the part but won't explode.

But...

They don't dare to bet!

If they win, they get nothing.

But if they lose, their lives are gone.

What if Xu Mo really is a reckless robber?

"Three!" Xu Mo began the countdown.

In the bank, some people had already squatted down out of fear.

"Two!"

The time left for people to think was already short.

Only the final second remained.

Those already squatting, terrified, began pulling at the nearby people who hadn't squatted yet.

"Quick, damn it, squat down! You don't care about your lives, and I still want them!"

"What are you doing standing? Crouch! You've all thrown away your lives?"

"Everyone, quickly follow the robber's orders and crouch! I don't want to die; I've got parents above me and... I haven't even got any below!! Crouch! I haven't even had a girlfriend yet, I don't want to die!"

Because the aura Xu Mo displayed at this moment truly resembled that of a desperado, like a reckless madman!

Thus everyone felt an extremely strong sense of oppression.

Without waiting for Xu Mo to count to one.

The remaining people still standing in the bank either were pulled down to crouch by those around them.

Or they crouched out of fear.

"Very good," Xu Mo nodded. "Stay crouched and don't move. As long as you cooperate, I won't hurt you."

Having said that, Xu Mo walked toward the bank counter.

To the few of you remaining tellers, raise both hands over your heads and get out and crouch properly.

The tellers who had received training.

At that moment, they cooperated fully, raising both hands high, and kicked the one‑click emergency alarm button linked to the Police.

Then, they slowly walked out.

The tellers all understood clearly.

The immediate priority now is to restrain these three desperadoes.

Delay as much time as possible.

Await the Police's arrival.

They had just pressed the one‑click emergency alarm button.

The Police will arrive quickly.

And will rescue everyone.

But what they didn't know was.

Before arriving, Xu Mo had already hacked into the bank's security system.

The one‑click alarm button had already been disabled.

Not even a press would work.

Even if it were smashed, the Police couldn't receive the alarm.

Xu Mo shouted to the tellers.

"Gold bars, I want gold bars. Bring over all the gold bars in your bank!"

Hearing that, the tellers were slightly stunned.

Gold bars?

That's not how it's shown in movies.

In movies, aren't robbers always after cash?

Robbing gold bars? What the heck?

Seeing that the tellers showed no reaction.

Xu Mo's gaze instantly turned cold.

He immediately drew a knife from his waist.

"Nobody cooperating, huh? You really think I don't dare to kill people? Fine... I'll slaughter one for you to see."

Having said that, he lifted the knife and walked toward one of the tellers.

The teller Xu Mo was staring at broke out in fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

Even his heartbeat sped up considerably.

Although this teller had never seen a real desperado.

She thought Xu Mo was that kind of reckless desperado.

The kind who's seen blood!

If you haven't taken a few lives yourself, you couldn't have such a vicious look!

"Big Brother... Big Brother, don't act! I'll get the gold bars for you!" The teller was truly frightened.

She intended to fetch the gold bars for Xu Mo.

Come to think of it, gold bars are very valuable.

But the gold bars aren't hers.

She wouldn't risk her life for them.

The money belongs to the boss; her life is her own.

She could clearly tell which is lighter and which is heavier.

"Sorry," Xu Mo licked his lips. "It's too late now."

The teller could never have imagined in her dreams.

That she had already agreed to fetch gold bars for Xu Mo.

Xu Mo still didn't intend to let her go!

Her face had turned completely pallid with fear.

Her legs were trembling.

She didn't even have the strength to stand.

She retreated backward using both hands and feet.

She kept retreating until she reached the wall.

Realizing she had no way out.

The clerk went berserk, shouting with a sobbing tone.

"Spare me, spare me!"

But Xu Mo completely ignored the clerk's pleas for mercy.

Instead, with a mocking expression, he lifted his knife and kept walking toward the clerk.

The clerk had nowhere to retreat.

Moreover, his legs were now trembling with fear.

He didn't even have the strength to stand up and run.

He could only keep begging for mercy.

Fortunately, one of the three robbers spoke up at that moment.

"Alright." Zhou Qiaoqiao stepped forward and grabbed Xu Mo: "You've only been out for a few days, and you want to go back in again, right? She already agreed to get us the Gold Bar, so let her go."

Hearing this.

The clerk seemed to have clutched the last straw of hope.

He nodded vigorously.

"Yes, yes, yes, I'll get you the Gold Bar, don't kill me!"
