"Soon, I've got the first one." Arthur carefully cracked the password of the safe inside, "Although it's slower, it's very small, and there's plenty of time, don't worry."
"Damn it, I heard someone coming outside." Lenny's voice came from outside.
"Yes, I heard it, too."
"Yes."
The news from the three people outside made Arthur a little anxious. There were five safes in the entire bank, but now he has only cracked two.
"How is the situation inside?" Bill asked again.
"It's almost done."
Arthur had no mind to pay attention to the outside, and he had to speed up, otherwise, if he was found robbing the bank, you should know that there was a police station not far outside. Although Valentine had not many police officers, it was far beyond them.
Even if they are blocked in the bank, they will be completely finished just by throwing a few explosives.
Even if they can't kill them, as long as they block them here, if the police officers are patient enough, they can even destroy them here.
Just as Arthur was trying to crack the password, the three people outside who were responsible for taking care of the customers and the manager were a little relaxed. After all, in their opinion, only these ordinary people who did not carry guns on them would not pose any threat to them.
"Look at him."
Bill found out that someone was doing something small, and he said to Lenny.
Lenny pointed his gun at the moving guy, "Don't move, boy."
"Please, sir, let me go. I promise I won't say a word." The moving guy begged with a panic look on his face.
"Fuck, shut up, shit. You're saying one more word, I'll drill a hole in your head!" Karen was very irritated. She didn't want any accidents. They were robbing the bank, not playing house.
"Empty another safe, it seems we won't take long to finish it." Arthur stretched and continued to walk towards the next safe.
"How long will you have?" Bill is always so impatient.
"Don't worry, I need some more time." Arthur didn't want to pay attention to Bill, but if he ignored him, he would keep making noise, so he replied.
After a few minutes: "Is this time enough?"
"Maybe, but if there are more, it would be even better." Arthur was speechless. If cracking the safe was as simple as breaking the safe, then robbing the bank would not be a dangerous job.
"Very good, I'm ready to leave this ghost place at any time." Bill nodded when he heard Arthur's words.
"Bill, how is the situation inside?" Karen asked from the outside.
She is the first line of defense for this team. If someone comes in, she will directly detain the people who come in and can also shoot directly if necessary.
However, if possible, Karen doesn't want to shoot directly. After all, killing and robbery are two different things.
"I think it's going to be done in a few minutes." Bill replied happily.
This robbery was planned by him and Karen, and the action was so smooth, of course it was worth being happy.
"I'll go see what's going on outside," Karen said, looking out from the bank window. There was no movement outside, and no one seemed to know that there was a robbery here.
......
Just when Arthur and his friends were robbing the bank in Valentine, they were in a small house outside Rhodes, far away from the two estates and had little to do with both.
But today, here, two people who should have been incompatible with each other appeared.
One is an old man and the other is an old lady. If they were not the heads of the two major families, then they might become friends?
"What did you inform me about here to do? Damn old witch?" Tavish sat on the stool, in front of him Katherine Bracewayt, who had just walked into the house.
Katherine did not care about Tavish's attitude, but asked someone to move a stool and sit opposite Tavish.
"I think we should discuss how to restore Rhodes to his previous peace." Catherine said, which made Tavish stunned. Then he thought of something and nodded.
"It seems we haven't seen each other for a long time." He said with a slight sigh.
Catherine was also stunned: "If I remember correctly, it seems that I have never had any intersection with you. Except for some conflicts among the people below us."
Tavish smiled awkwardly. He also had an instinctive relationship. He never expected that the woman's family opposite would be incompatible with them.
"Ahem, let's talk about the serious business." Tavish lit a cigar and knocked on the table: "I'm sorry, you lost those precious horses."
Catherine's face turned cold: "If you were to laugh at me, then I think we have nothing to talk about. Do you think I don't know who planned this horse stealing operation?"
"Of course I know, madam, but I think, this is just a small matter, isn't it?" Tawish made a move to show weakness, and then looked at Catherine quietly.
Catherine calmed down, "I think yes, Gareth, show him all the things that happened to Rhodes recently!"
Gareth, standing behind Catherine, took out a stack of files, which were covered with all the things that happened in Rhodes recently, as well as information about people who had intersections with the Braceway family.
"This is a group of robbers. Although they don't know where they came from, there is no dispute. They broke Rhodes's peace and also broke the unspoken rules between our two families." Katherine lit a women's cigarette.
Although he is old, it can be seen that Mrs. Catherine must have been a beauty when she was young.
Her movements are elegant and meticulous, full of the atmosphere of the upper class.
Tavish picked up the information and looked at it, with a strange smile on his face: "It's not just about the information, but I remember that they should have destroyed some private wine shops in the depths of the swamp and killed some bandits who often wandered around Rhodes."
"I think we should be talking about the same group." Catherine exhaled a sip of smoke: "Since they came, the losses between our two families have become greater, and there have been more conflicts in normal times."
"Then you come to us, do you want us to take action?" Tavish smiled. He knew the old woman Katherine's thoughts, so he wanted them to take action to kill this group of robbers, so that they could protect their interests without any trouble.
But although Tavish wanted to gather people to kill the bandits, it did not mean that he had to use his own hands.
"Of course, aren't you Rhodes's police family? You should do it." Catherine sat leisurely on the chair, looking at the patriarch of the Gray family who she often heard, but had never met before.
"Of course I can do it, but you also know that when we were before, the tobacco fields were burned a lot and more than a dozen guards were lost. You know, whether you admit it or not, these guys are very strong."
Tavesh knew very well that the old woman Katherine had written to him, which means that their losses were not small. Although the Gray family also suffered losses, in fact, it was better than Bracewayt.
"Of course I know, so, what do you want to say?"
Katherine was pretending to be stupid, Tavish no longer wanted to argue with this old woman: "I think you understand very well what I'm talking about."
Tavesh's tone was not very good, but Catherine knew that she could no longer tease the old bastard: "Yes, of course I understand what you are talking about."
Hearing Catherine surrendered, Tawish put out the smoke: "Do you know? Recently, in the town, the story of gold in our two families began to spread."
"Didn't they keep circulating?" Catherine didn't care. This legend has been circulating in the town for decades, and it's not bad for this time.
Tavish knew that although this woman was cruel, she was not interested in some things: "Do you know what this means?"
Catherine thought for a while: "Someone has been inquiring about this matter recently and wants to take away all the gold!"
After all, Catherine is the patriarch of a big family. Although she didn't understand the information brought by this incident for a while, she could understand the tricks in it by thinking about it for a moment.
"That's right." Tavesh nodded: "Although there has been competition between the two of us, due to hundreds of years of struggle, we have formed a tacit understanding and will never destroy the bottom line of both sides. However, after this group of robbers came, many people have died. In the past hundreds of years, we have never died so many people except in the first few years."
Tavesh stood up and said, "You know, what we lost is not only those tobacco fields or private winemaking workshops, but the prestige of our two families in Rhodes."
"We have fought for a hundred years. Even if your family destroys my family in the future, it will be a matter between us. But now, a group of robbers rushed to us and wanted to kill both of us and then rob our property. Do you understand the seriousness of this matter?"
Tawish continued, "We all know that the treasure is gone, but the gang of robbers want to provoke a war between us and take away that non-existent treasure."
"They want us to be their chess pieces, and then take away ours from the chessboard." Tavesh said, with a hideous look on his face.
He is not a good person, and even among the two families, probably except those workers and Bao and Penelope, all were guilty of crimes.
