Chapter 133: The Official Compromise!
"Damn it!"
After receiving the news, Milos could no longer hold it in!
At this moment, the emotions that had not found an outlet finally erupted completely!
"Bang!"
The next second, he slammed his palm directly onto the table, smashing his own phone to pieces on the spot!
"Damn it, this bastard..."
After venting for a while, Milos panted heavily while ordering his subordinates nearby:
"Prepare the car immediately."
"Where to?"
"Back to headquarters."
"Understood, I will arrange it right away."
"You all withdraw as well; there is no point in staying here anymore. Leave the remaining work for the Police Headquarters to handle."
"Yes!"
The moment Milos and his party stepped off the command vehicle, the surrounding crowd began to boo, and all sorts of trash flew through the air!
Regarding the public's mockery.
Milos once again chose to turn a blind eye.
At this very moment, he was in no mood to care about such things.
Because what he was about to face was surely even more despairing than this mockery!
After arriving at headquarters, Milos went straight to the office where the big boss was located, met with a white-haired old man, and relayed the demands Chu Chen had made to him.
"Where is that guy now?"
After Milos finished speaking, the white-haired old man asked in a deep voice immediately.
"I don't know..."
"You don't know?" The white-haired old man raised his eyebrows, seemingly questioning him.
He did not dare to respond.
The next second, the white-haired old man continued to ask in a deep voice: "What about Maria? Is she still alive?"
"This..."
Milos now wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"Don't hem and haw, just say what you have to say!"
The white-haired old man's sharp shout made him shudder.
"She... she should be safe; we are currently doing our utmost to track down her specific whereabouts..."
"So that means her life or death is unknown?"
"No, no, no, you misunderstood. Based on my understanding of that Huaxia man, he shouldn't harm the hostages. As long as we agree to his request, Maria will definitely be fine!" Milos hurriedly explained.
Upon hearing this, the white-haired old man snorted coldly and said: "Since you understand him so well, why didn't you catch him?"
"..."
These words of his once again left Milos speechless.
"Hiss."
The white-haired old man puffed on the cigar in his hand, lost in his own thoughts.
The brown wrapper suddenly turned fiery red in the dim environment.
It only returned to its original state after leaving the old man's lips again.
"Hoo!"
After a large mouthful of smoke, the old man stood up, leaning on a walking stick, and said to Milos and the big boss:
"Do as that guy says, and leave the rest for God to handle. As for you, you should know what to do..."
After the white-haired old man finished this sentence, the atmosphere in the entire room instantly froze to the freezing point!
At present, because Chu Chen had already disappeared.
The audience did not know about these matters.
However, the two announcements subsequently released by the Italy authorities immediately aroused the curiosity of the audience!
The first announcement was that they had unconditionally pardoned Chu Chen and all the hostages in front of the whole world!
Once this announcement was released, the whole world instantly boiled over, sparking heated discussions among countless people!
Even the Huaxia side was deeply shocked by this!
Originally, they were already preparing for the worst, but the final result was completely beyond their expectations!
An unconditional pardon is not something that can be implemented just like that.
Criminals who can enjoy such treatment are not ordinary people.
Because the conditions required for this kind of treatment are extremely harsh!
According to local law, the case Chu Chen committed this time was definitely enough for life imprisonment.
Under such circumstances, how could the relevant departments still implement an unconditional pardon for him?
The reason for this must be thought-provoking!
Based on this point, the popularity of this topic soon rose like Water and grew like Force on all major news and social media platforms!
In an instant, social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok were all filled with discussions about this matter!
Some people believed that Huaxia had made a move.
Others believed that both sides had already reached a secret reconciliation regarding this matter.
Even more extreme, some simply and crudely defined it as a scripted effect for the show, which drew opposition from many of Chu Chen's die-hard fans.
For this reason, the Program Team also issued an announcement to clarify the matter.
In fact, even if they had not clarified it, those with a discerning eye could see that a show of this kind could not possibly have a script.
The heated discussion sparked by the unconditional pardon lasted for an entire day!
Just as the popularity of this topic was about to fade, the release of a second announcement stirred up a thousand waves once again!
The content of the second announcement was very simple.
In accordance with Chu Chen's request, they had issued 2 million Euros in emotional distress compensation to every hostage who participated in this operation, helping Chu Chen fulfill his promise!
Once this announcement was released, it shocked the entire world again!
Anyone who had watched the live stream knew that Chu Chen had promised them during the broadcast that after the matter concluded, he would give each of them 2 million Euros as payment for this operation.
At the time, many viewers were curious about how he would fulfill his promise!
Regarding this matter, they had imagined countless possibilities, but they never expected that the authorities would foot the bill for it!
As of now, the ins and outs of the whole affair were already very clear.
Even if the authorities did not say it, people had already guessed that all of this was definitely Chu Chen's doing!
But what exactly happened in between, no one knew.
Because there was plenty of room for imagination, all sorts of conspiracy theories popped up on the internet, and many influencers even posted videos specifically to analyze this matter.
Among them, there were actually some who hit the nail on the head.
But due to a lack of evidence, after analyzing it back and forth, it was ultimately just a glimpse of the whole, seeing only a small part.
However, after their analysis, this matter quickly became a new urban legend, turning into a favorite for many lovers of unsolved mysteries!
……
……
……
The third day of Chu Chen's disappearance!
Joanna and the six Pursuit Captains once again led people to conduct a comprehensive search of the Yinchaochang building.
But in the end, they still did not discover any valuable clues.
The fourth day.
Under the orders of the Central Bank, the Yinchaochang resumed production.
The fifth day.
The exhibition hall in front of the Yinchaochang was also opened to the public again.
Everything had returned to the way it was before the robbery.
However, just when everyone thought this matter had ended, an accident occurred once again.
This morning.
A courier placed an envelope on the front desk of the Yinchaochang, with a line of Chinese written on it:
"To be opened by the Pursuit Team."
The signature at the bottom was none other than Chu Chen...
