Chapter 60
"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and Hui Ge, with a bullet entering from under his chin and shooting straight up to the crown of his head, fell like a log, dying with his eyes wide open.
He didn't understand until death; he had merely humiliated those illegal immigrant workers as usual, extorting more money from them — such a very common method — so how had he provoked such a ruthless character?
The bespectacled man looked at the fallen Hui Ge, his mind racing; given his own arrogant behavior just now, after these two got the elevator password, would they also make him "commit suicide" and die?
No, he definitely still had value! He suddenly remembered, what was the greatest value in this room? "Two big brothers, just as you said, you killed Hui Ge and the people outside because you feared retaliation.
But if you leave like this, you still can't escape retaliation.
This is the Fuzhou Gang; even placed in the world, it's a fairly large gang. Just in three major cities in America — New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco — totaling up, there are tens of thousands of gang members, controlling over a hundred thousand people.
You came in; the gamblers outside all saw your Asian faces.
If there's no accident, the Fuzhou Gang might issue a kill order on the rivers and lakes, and will hunt you down.
How about this: I know the password to the safe behind the desk; you take all the cash inside the safe.
When our hall master comes to ask, I'll say you were Vietnamese guys coming to rob; this can also help divert the investigation direction for you.
Then, you take the money to another city!
You can even go further to another country.
Going to Mexico works, going to Brazil works too! I'll destroy all the surveillance data, say you did it; let me off the hook! Okay?"
His meaning was very clear: these two in front drove here, presumably to remit money, so the car was definitely their own.
With a car, there would definitely be traces, and they could definitely find out who it was.
And those surveillance cameras were all installed by the Fuzhou Gang themselves; the ones installed by the government had long been sabotaged by them.
Since these two wanted to avoid trouble, destroying the surveillance data was definitely something they couldn't avoid; they hadn't noticed it, so he reminded them.
Showing he still had use! Another thing: he truly didn't want to cross these two eerie people again! If it were normal people, gun against gun, knife against knife, if you died, you'd at least know how you died.
But opposing these two eerie people in front, you'd die without knowing how you died!
Chen Yaozu thought for a moment; it seemed what he said made sense, so he asked him: "What's your name?"
"Big brother, my name is Mo Haisheng; I'm the one managing the accounts at this finance company; normally I really haven't done any bad things!"
The bespectacled man heard the other party finally ask his name, and his heart finally settled.
Since the other party asked for his name, it definitely meant they intended to spare him; otherwise, why would they care about a dead man's name! But he said he hadn't done bad things — how was that possible?
The finance company takes seven out, returns thirteen; the underground bank's transfers are all managed by him; how could he possibly not have done bad things?
But now, to survive, he couldn't care that much; he just spoke freely.
"Mo Haisheng, right!
Since what you say makes so much sense, then go open the safe and let's see what's inside!"
The bespectacled man Mo Haisheng hurriedly nodded, walked behind the desk, and opened that safe; he knew the password, he had known it long ago.
Although logically speaking, only Hui Ge should know this password, as Hui Ge's confidant, with so much time passed, how could he not know the safe's password? So he opened it very easily.
After opening the safe, pulling open the door, what met the eye wasn't stacks of US dollars; the first thing seen were actually two pistols, and magazines filled with bullets beside the pistols.
Mo Haisheng looked at those two guns with some struggle, but his eyes quickly cleared; these two fundamentally weren't normal people, not something guns could contend with. The dozens of little brothers outside all had guns, and now those little brothers were all lying down.
So after he pulled open the safe door, he very obediently turned back and said to Chen Yaozu and the other: "Two big brothers, it's open. Although a few days ago we just handed over the count to the hall, there's still quite a lot of money! And, we're used to using small-denomination US dollars, which are good for laundering, so no need to worry these are large denominations that are hard to spend."
Finished speaking, he even got a bag from the side and started putting all the cash from the safe into the bag; after packing, he turned back and asked: "A total of six hundred thirty thousand, and the two guns — put them in too?"
Now he was very tactful! "Six hundred thirty thousand, a triad underground bank's safe, actually only has this little money?"
Ceng Hongbing was somewhat surprised.
"Big brother, we're all just small outlets; Hui Ge is just a little boss. The real big underground banks are all opened inside licensed casinos; we don't even qualify.
And, every week we hand over the count upstairs; the safe only keeps emergency funds for daily use, for when someone borrows money or something.
If the loan amount is large, an appointment is needed; after the appointment, we'll urgently transfer it over from the gang's big money house.
After all, this is Los Angeles; Los Angeles has over 50 gangs. If we didn't operate like this, who knows which day someone would kick down the door like today and rob the money.
Impossible to guard against!"
Chen Yaozu waved his hand: "Forget the guns, take the money, let's go!"
A gunfight happened; this place isn't suitable to stay long; we need to slip away fast!
"Big brother, one of you takes the money, one takes a gun and holds me hostage!"
The bespectacled man didn't dare walk out like that; after all, there were several dozen gamblers outside. Seeing them safe and sound now, it was very obvious these two lords wouldn't harm innocents, and didn't want to harm innocents.
They wouldn't kill all the outside gamblers just to silence witnesses.
So, he could only be held hostage!
Ceng Hongbing held the money, Chen Yaozu held the gun taken from the safe, and with the bespectacled man slung under his arm, they walked toward the elevator.
Those gamblers watched with wide eyes as two outside strong dragons, holding hostage this casino's only living person, left via the elevator.
After entering the elevator, Chen Yaozu wiped the fingerprints clean, returned the gun to the bespectacled man, then joked: "The space here is so narrow; you can try, see if you can kill us before we react?"
The bespectacled man looked at the gun handed before his eyes; cold sweat instantly broke out.
Before his eyes appeared the scene just now: Hui Ge extremely unwillingly, forced, hand slowly bending toward himself, pressing the gun against his own jaw and pulling the trigger.
He didn't dare take it; a crying tone came out: "Big... big brother, wasn't it agreed you'd let me go, and I'd delete the surveillance data for you?"
Chen Yaozu directly put the gun in his hand: "I remember there's still someone outside; you can't expect me to do the dirty work, right!"
The bespectacled man instantly understood: this is a certificate of loyalty?
The elevator opened; the bespectacled man walked out. Because soundproofing material was used above, the gunfight below hadn't been heard in the slightest upstairs.
That little brother saw him and enthusiastically greeted: "Brother Sheng..."
"Bang!"
Fuzhou Gang, Los Angeles Hall, Zhang Rusong received a call: "What? Changjiu Finance Company's money house was robbed?"
