Several masked men, ruthless in their methods, quickly gained control of the situation.
“Get everyone together, and raise your hands-”
“Stand up! Get the hell down on your knees! Hands up!” The masked men kicked a few people on the ground.
Like herding pigs and dogs, they drove the crowd together.
“Damn it, you rich folks usually act so tough, aren’t you afraid of death? I thought you weren’t afraid of death!” One masked man laughed loudly, pointing his gun at a fat middle-aged man’s head.
The middle-aged man’s lips trembled, and he collapsed to his knees, “Bro! Don’t kill me, how much money do you want, I’ll give it to you…”
Seeing the pathetic state of the fat middle-aged man, a trace of disdain flashed in the masked man’s eyes as he kicked him over. “Get out of here! Lie down like a good boy!”
Raphael Rogers stood on a high platform, a gun pointed at him from a distance, as if ready to fire at any moment, sweat dripping from his forehead.
However, he managed to maintain a semblance of composure on his face.
“Why did you choose to hijack on this day? What do you want?” he asked in a deep voice, “I can give you what you want, as long as no lives are harmed.”
“Money,” the leader’s voice hoarse and cold, “I know, Mr. Rogers, you are wealthy, and so are they. Therefore, we intend to take money from you.”
“Hahaha.” Raphael Rogers laughed, “How much do you want?”
The gang leader’s voice was calm, “Mr. Rogers, three billion from you, and ten million each from the others.”
“We brought ten guns this time, and a timed bomb.”
He pulled out a timed bomb and threw it directly into the crowd.
The hearts of those people almost jumped out of their chests!
As they watched the numbers on the bomb change continuously, they felt death looming closer…
Raphael Rogers took a deep breath and said, “You really have a big appetite.”
“Mr. Rogers, this time, we are also risking our lives. Asking for a few tens of billions isn’t too much, right? After all, the lives of you wealthy people are worth more than just a few tens of billions…”
The gang leader chuckled.
“I, I’ll give you the money, I’ll give you the money! Can you let me go now?” Mrs. Rosario shouted, her voice filled with endless fear…
“Bang!”
The gang leader shot her in the leg, and she screamed and fell down.
“It’s not your turn to speak, shut up!”
The whole place fell silent.
“This timed bomb only has thirty minutes. Within ten minutes, immediately transfer the money into this account, or die… immediately!”
He took out a card and placed it in front, “One by one, transfer the money. Those who have transferred can live, otherwise, die!”
“Dad, I’m scared-” Two children cowered under Quentin, trembling.
“It’s okay, Daddy will protect you.” Quentin held them tightly.
These people were ruthless and cruel. If it were just him, he could easily stop them, even if they had guns…
But now, there were so many people on the scene. If he couldn’t subdue them all in an instant, giving them the chance to resist…
If they were provoked, with a sweep of their assault rifles, these ordinary people would hardly stand a chance.
And Charlotte and the two children were here too, he couldn’t take the risk.
Raphael Rogers said in a deep voice, “Three billion is too much. I’ll give you two billion, to buy the lives of everyone here. This money is enough for you to live in luxury for the rest of your lives.”
“Daydreaming.”
“Mr. Rogers, you need to understand the situation. Right now, you don’t have the qualifications to negotiate with us!”
“Those who want to live, transfer the money immediately, otherwise, you’ll all die!”
Quentin remained calm, his gaze constantly scanning the few people who were always on guard, quietly tearing off a piece of cloth from his own sleeve.
