The recovered truck was again placed under martial law, and the police scattered and began to search the surrounding area to see if the stolen goods had been hidden in nearby houses.

Soon, the terrifying news came that the people in the houses of the two nearby streets were unconscious, and there was a faint fragrance in the house, and the smell was the same as that left in the bank.

This result sent shudders down everyone's shoulders. If these people don't wake up, it won't be a simple bank theft, and no one will dare to live in the concession. After all, it won't be three hundred and five hundred, it will be thousands!

Just when everyone was stunned and didn't know how good the road was, suddenly, a crisp gunshot came, and within a few minutes, a motorcycle came speeding up, and the speed was almost like a mad rush.

Before Jonathan could shout to intercept them, the motorcycle was stopped a block away from Zhongnan Bank.

What's going on?

Everyone looked there.

Soon, they had an answer.

The stopped motorcycle started again, shouted and dodged, and rushed towards the bank.

The driver was an American soldier, and without waiting for the car to stop, he rushed over with a rolling belt, shouting: "Zhongtong Bank has been attacked by poison gas, people don't know whether they are alive or dead, and Zhongtong Bank has been robbed!" ”

"What?! China Commerce Bank was robbed!! ”

Jonathan and Smolley were shocked. The matter here has not been settled, most of the wealth that has been robbed has not been found, and there are obviously robbers on the run, and there is actually another robbery over there.

Could it be that a wave of people did it?

The thought crossed everyone's minds.

Jonathan's body was weak for a while, and he knew that he, the general director of the Ministry of Industry, was coming to an end, and he was afraid that he would be forced to resign after so many vicious incidents had happened in a row.

Smolley was the first to react, and he said briefly, "Mr. Jonathan." There are some troops left here, let's go over there and have a look. ”

"Good!"

Jonathan forced himself to calm down, left a few detectives and dozens of people, and led the team to follow Smoley to the China Commercial Bank.

Just a few minutes ago, a convoy of trucks rushed out of the bank. Then, a brief shootout ensued with an American team that did not rush to Zhongnan Bank, in which three trucks were killed and the driver fell to the side of the road, and the remaining four trucks disappeared into the night without a trace.

When Smolley and Jonathan arrived at the bank, it was surrounded by hundreds of American soldiers who had arrived first, but no one dared to enter within 100 meters of the bank.

"What's going on?"

Smolley asked as he jumped out of the jeep.

"Report to the general. Suddenly we were attacked by a truck, we killed four people, killed three drivers of the other side, the truck was pulling a lot of banknotes and silver dollars, according to the position of the truck, we rushed here, but did not dare to enter, close to the people and weakened. Just take a few minutes to leave and relax. ”

As he walked, Smolley listened to the captain and came to the truck first.

"How can it be a Hebrew?"

Smolley lifted a head full of plasma. After seeing his face clearly, he frowned and muttered quietly.

Hebrews are Portuguese, and it is strange that it was the Portuguese who were killed in the car. If you want to say that Britain has the idea, take advantage of the chaos to make a fortune, and take advantage of the fire to rob and have the strength. Portugal is not doing well now, how can it rob the Bank of China in the concession?

In the car, it is similar to that of the Zhongnan Bank, and it is also the banknotes of various countries and part of the ocean, but the number is not much.

Jonathan was already a little familiar with the situation, and he didn't wait to get close to the truck before he asked the inspector in charge of the area to summon the bank's president. Let's see if it's the same as Zhongnan Bank, most of the wealth has been lost.

There are a few nurses and two doctors from Zhongnan Bank, come and see if you are the same here as Zhongnan Bank.

However, this place is obviously different from Zhongnan, there is no smell of ylang-ylang here, only a spicy and pungent smell in the air.

Soon, outside the bank, he found the muddy nursing home, lying on the edge of the trees on the side of the street.

Their symptoms are also different from those in Zhongnan, where people are more like they are asleep, while people here are covered in mud, with their hands and feet thrown into everything, as if they have no bones.

How? Not a bunch of people?

Jonathan looked at the detectives who had followed, and seeing that they were also confused, he gave up the inquiry and waited intently for the bankers to come.

Smolley didn't wait, he turned his head and ordered: "Inform the garrisons of various countries that all troops, except for the necessary gate defense, all go up to the streets, block all the streets, as long as these trucks do not leave and do not break through the interception of the advance army, they are still in the concession, and they will not fly!" ”

"Yes! Checkmate! ”

The captain straightened up, turned around and looked for the phone call.

Smolley tried to get closer to the bank, and sure enough, when he was close to fifty or sixty meters, he felt a little weakness in his body, but there was no other discomfort, and this distance was much lighter than the reaction of the soldiers who arrived first.

What is the reason for this? Is it really a kind of incense?

At this time, a Chinese detective approached Jonathan's side and said: "Sir, I think I should invite two old people from the rivers and lakes to take a look, you see that these doctors can't find the reason, we have to catch the robbers, we must first know what means they use, or there is no clue at all?" ”

No clues?

Jonathan looked at the truck parked there, and although he didn't agree with the detective's words, he nodded in agreement.

After the detective left, he shook his head and said secretly in his heart: clues, these people who were killed are not clues?

Soon, in about ten minutes, the president and deputy governor of the bank and other managers arrived in disheveled clothes, and after looking at the contents of the truck, they first confirmed that these were only a very small part.

When the soldiers got gas masks, Smolley decided to go inside the bank first to see how big the damage was.

When a group of people put on gas masks and walked into the bank, they found that the situation here was similar to that of Zhongnan Bank, where the insiders were tilted to the side and dragged out of the channel. The vault was opened, and the gold and silver treasures and stored items were gone, and the bits and pieces of tickets scattered on the ground were scattered everywhere, apparently emptied.

The only difference with Zhongnan Bank is that they did not cut and burn the thumb-thick steel bars with gas like Zhongnan Bank. Instead, they used violent means to bend the steel bars and make several large holes that could pass through the goods, and the doors of the small sorting lockers inside were all pry bars, and the techniques were far from those of Zhongnan Bank, just like unprofessional thieves. Aside from the fact that the bank and the guards around the bank are brought down unknowingly, it's an amateur gang of thieves.

However, it was this amateur gang of thieves who took most of Zhongtong's wealth with them. There were not many trucks left behind by the killed driver, not even gold, and a large number of silver dollars, all of which were looted, and the estimated amount left behind was a fraction.

Especially those private storage items that can fit a truckload, which are definitely the bulk of these riches.

These two groups are not a group......

Smolley and Jonathan looked at each other, and through the glass of their gas masks, they could read each other's meaning. These are two separate cases, not a single group of people. As for the reasons. It is easier and faster to use gas cutting and cutting elements than to pry and bend steel bars, and there is no need to have a good way to abandon it and use a more stupid method.

Knowing the loss, Jonathan and the others didn't stay long, who knows if the gas mask can block the poison here, so the poisoning will outweigh the loss. Anyway, it is the bank of the Chinese who robbed it, so there is no need to work too hard.

Just as they had left the inside of the bank and stepped out into the street to take off their gas masks and breathe, a jeep sped away. Run to here.

What's going on again?

Both of them had a bad premonition, they looked at each other, and stood still in the direction of the jeep to clenching the brakes, the lieutenant who went up and returned from the jeep jumped out of the car and didn't care about saluting, and said loudly: "General, the central bank has also been robbed, the specific time is unknown, the nearby police are unconscious, the bank door is wide open, and there are faint figures on the ground......

...... of buying cakes

The two of them patted their foreheads almost at the same time, knowing that disaster was coming in the concession.

"Blockade the streets?!"

"General, it's blocked!"

When Smolley got the answer, he turned his head to look at Jonathan, and when he saw him nodding, he didn't bother anymore, and left Zhongtong directly with some people, and the two rushed to the central bank one street away.

As soon as they left, the Chinese detective who was looking for someone came to Zhongtong Bank with two people with white beards.

Without waiting to get closer, when they saw the person lying on the stretcher, and stepped forward to fiddle with it, they changed color, and the two people covered their mouths and noses with their sleeves one after another, and left here backwards, and only said when they thought they were safe: "If you guess correctly, this is caused by the poisonous flower fog, what happened here?" How could there be a long-lost poisonous flower mist here? ”

"Poisonous Flower Mist?"

The detective asked, confused.

"Well, this is a kind of domineering ecstasy that my ancestor once mentioned, much more clever than the five grains and chicken Mingxiang, not a level, it is said to be Yishan poison. The poisonous flower is shaped like a lotus calyx, slightly smaller than the ordinary lotus, the color is blue-purple in the morning, and the color is yellowish-white in the evening. It has the function of ecstasy, ordinary people smell a little, immediately dizzy, the body is as soft as mud, and it has to go through twelve hours before you can wake up."

"It's a pity that although the main medicine of the Dao is known, the specific refining and dispensing have been lost, and my master also has relevant records, but there is no production method, listening to the older generation, these are too domineering, and the sects that will do these have been exterminated, and the formula has been lost hundreds of years ago."

Another added.

"Those two seniors, this thing, this poisonous flower mist is our China?"

The detective took out a pen and paper and took notes, and looked up and asked.

"Not necessarily, China has long been lost, hundreds of years ago, if there is, it would have been revealed a long time ago, not until now. According to records, this thing was used on the battlefield and affected the war situation, and in the later period, a village by village was looted, and it was all caused by this thing, no matter how powerful it was, it couldn't stop this thing, and it was paralyzed if it was inhaled, which set off a frenzy in the rivers and lakes, exterminated all the sects that would make this, and burned the formula, which led to the loss of the most lull later. ”

The other also pretended to add: "Senior Brother Bai is right, this thing is used in small quantities, and it is invincible to rob and pick flowers, if there is, it would have set off a frenzy a long time ago, how can it be the turn to get these...... To show off your might in China? ”

As if he had almost made a mistake, the old man added: "I judge that this was spread to foreign countries in the early years, and there is no longer it in China, and I have not heard of it again after so many years." ”

"Spread to the Gentiles?"

The detective's eyes lit up, and he looked back at the truck where the body had been removed and nodded.

They were chatting about the poisonous flower mist, and Jonathan and they also rushed to the central bank, where there was a faint fishy smell in the surrounding air, as if there were sea fish piled up nearby, with a fishy smell.

The scene is similar to that of other banks, all of them are put down in a coma by the periphery guards, and the banks are wide open. When the governor Cui Guangfu was found, he entered the bank with a gas mask, and saw the same scene as other banks, the bank's gold and personal storage were gone, and all the valuable money was looted.

The only difference is that the steel bars of the iron door were sawn off by hacksaw blades, and the inside was violently opened by crowbars and sledgehammers.

Finished......

Jonathan groaned in his heart. It doesn't matter if these Chinese's banks were robbed, but the security under their own rule is so unbearable that this general director has come to an end, and there is nothing to say.

Smolley, on the other hand, thought that the possessions must have been hidden somewhere, or right under their noses, especially the Portuguese and British, who were robbers, so that he did not suspect that it was a ploy by some country to make a fortune, or that it was simply a personal act.

He didn't say anything more, exchanged words with Jonathan, turned around and drove away, heading straight for the concession gate.

When he arrived at the gate, he went alone and stood fifteen or sixteen meters away from the advance army's bunker and shouted: "I am the US commander in Shanghai, Smolley, please find the left adjutant for me, I have something important." ”

No one on the other side answered, and it seemed that they didn't take him as a commander seriously, or they didn't know if he was a commander or not.

Seeing that there was no movement on the other side, Shi Molai stood for five or six minutes, and when he was about to leave, there was a sudden roar of a helicopter here, and then Zuo Boyang shouted in mid-air: "General Lao is waiting, I have arrived." ”

Seeing Zuo Boyang's arrival, Shi Molai felt a little less unhappy, and when Zuo Boyang arrived on the ground, he didn't talk nonsense, and briefly told what happened in the concession.

"Order, strengthen all the vigilance at the concession intersection, strengthen the patrol of the river and port water surface, and those who are not allowed to leave will be killed if they enter the firing range!"

Zuo Boyang also simply ordered to strengthen vigilance.

"General Smolley, without the captain's order, I can't send troops into the concession to assist you, you don't need that, I will block all the intersections for you, I believe that so many items will not disappear, I believe that they will always be caught."

Zuo Boyang didn't wait for Shi Molai to say what he meant, and said directly. (To be continued......)
