“This…we need some time to consider and prepare,” George said.
“Of course, no problem. But if you can’t do it within an hour, they will kill a hostage every five minutes. Hmm, I’ll start with myself.” Bai Ye calmly described the conversation between the kidnappers.
"I've finished speaking. Is there anything you need me to tell them? If not, I'll be leaving," Bai Ye asked.
"Please tell them that we will do our best to meet their requirements, but we need to extend the timeframe a bit more, and it would be best to have a face-to-face meeting, as this would facilitate communication," George said helplessly.
"OK, I'll pass on what you said, but whether you listen to it or not is none of my business."
George couldn't help but wonder why Bai Ye was so calm: "Aren't you afraid of being involved in a robbery?"
"There's nothing to be afraid of. Once you meet their demands, I'll be safe." Bai Ye said, turning and walking into the bank.
……
Inside Osborne, under the guidance of teacher James, students are touring this leading global technology company.
Just as James was accompanying the guide on a tour of the company, his cell phone suddenly rang in his pocket. The caller was none other than the principal of his school.
“Hello, Principal, what’s up? I’m currently showing students around Osborne University.” James said, picking up his phone.
"Is Bai Ye with you? He's the Chinese student in your class." The principal asked seriously on the other end of the phone.
"Um, he skipped class today, why are you suddenly asking about him?" James asked curiously.
"He's been kidnapped from the bank, and it's making headlines on major news websites across the United States." The principal looked at the news that had made it to the front page of major news websites.
"What!" James exclaimed, then, feigning composure, addressed the class as they looked over, "You all follow the staff for the tour first. I have something to take care of."
Peter Parker, like the other students, watched in bewilderment as James hurriedly left as if his house were on fire.
Above his head, a red and blue spider was hanging down from above, gently attaching itself to the back of his neck, and then biting down.
"Hiss..." Peter Parker instinctively slapped his neck, then looked at his palm, where a crushed spider corpse lay quietly.
Meanwhile, James borrowed a computer at Osborne University, opened a news page, and saw that the headlines of all the major mainstream media outlets in the United States featured the face of a boy wearing a black and white striped shirt.
That face... wasn't it just his student?
James was at a loss for words to describe his feelings. He continued browsing and found not only photos, but also all the videos after the White Night appeared. There were even news reports of helicopters circling around the bank.
Chapter 21 Massacre
At this moment, on major American media websites, Bai Ye successfully made it to the front page thanks to his appearance and the robbery.
"So handsome! So handsome! So handsome! This is the true love I've been searching for my whole life."
"A very good photo; it made my eyes spin."
"Damn it, those bastards! They're playing this kind of imprisonment game. I'm so envious!"
Why are you all staring at my husband?
……
At this moment, although the incident had only occurred for less than half an hour, it quickly attracted the attention of millions of people on the website, and the entire incident was still developing, attracting more and more viewers.
Returning from outside the bank, Bai Ye was in a terrible mood. Recalling the huge crowds outside, he really didn't want to become famous at this moment.
All things considered, Bai Ye has only had the panel for less than a week, and right now he might not even be able to beat Captain America. He really doesn't want to stand openly in the spotlight.
Reality didn't go as he expected. He wrote a terrible script, didn't even have time to develop his character, and ended up with this kind of mess.
Upon seeing Bai Ye return, the four robbers who had been aiming at him from behind surrounded him, all satisfied with his performance.
"You've got some nerve, aren't you? Not scared at all." The gang leader looked at Bai Ye and asked, "And your suitcase, with all that cash and a gold ball inside, how did a student like you get those things?"
"I found it. If there's nothing else, I'll head back now," Bai Ye said casually, constantly reminding himself to be patient.
Suppressing the rising killing intent in his heart, Bai Ye ignored the robbers in front of him and tried to return to the crowd, but was blocked by one of the robbers.
"What kind of attitude is that, kid? You dare talk to us like that as a hostage? You think you're so great?" One of the robbers stood in front of Bai Ye with a contemptuous look on his face: "You're so good-looking, let me show you off first."
As he spoke, he raised his hand to touch Bai Ye's cheek, but Bai Ye grabbed it before he could make contact.
"Hey, you dare to resist." The robber tried to pull his hand away and beat the pretty boy in front of him, but when he looked up, he saw a cold, murderous gaze meeting his own.
With a soft sound beside my ear, I felt a sharp pain in my chest, and warm liquid gushed out from my chest.
"Do you know how long I've been putting up with you bunch of idiots?" Bai Ye pulled his right hand out of the robber's chest and disgustedly flicked the crimson liquid off his hand onto the ground.
The sudden turn of events left everyone in the hall, including the robbers, stunned.
But Bai Ye, who had already made his move, had no intention of wasting words with them. Looking at the four robbers surrounding him, Bai Ye's right hand turned into a blur, and he threw three punches in half a second, each punch aimed at the face of these men.
"Bang bang bang!"
With three muffled thuds accompanied by the cracking of bones, the three robbers in front of him were struck in the cheeks as if by heavy artillery fire, the terrifying impact sending them flying four or five meters away.
As the three men landed heavily, wounds resembling those from being hit by large-caliber rifles could be seen on their cheeks, their faces caved in due to the immense force.
Bai Ye's fist shattered their skulls, and under immense pressure, pinkish-white fluid mixed with blood gushed from their seven orifices.
Only then did the robber who had his heart ripped out by Bai Ye collapse to his knees, his legs giving way.
In the blink of an eye, four of the seven musketeers were killed by Bai Ye.
One man pierced through the heart, three others shattered through the skull!
"You bunch of idiots, none of you will leave here alive today," Bai Ye said through gritted teeth.
The two robbers on the side finally reacted. Seeing their accomplices who were oblivious to their own death, they pointed their submachine guns at Bai Ye and quickly pulled the triggers.
Before that, Bai Ye had already noticed their movements and stomped his right leg on the ground.
"Boom!"
Everyone felt a slight tremor on the ground. The beige tiles under Bai Ye's feet shattered inch by inch. In a second, from starting to accelerating, Bai Ye's body shot out eight or nine meters like a nimble snake.
"Da da da!"
A barrage of bullets followed Bai Ye's disappearing figure, striking the wall behind him and leaving craters.
Three seconds later, as the submachine gun magazine emptied, before the two men could reload or draw their pistols, the terrifying figure, whose hand was still dripping blood, was already standing in front of them.
Bai Ye watched as the robber tried to retreat, raised his right hand high, and cleaved down like a giant axe, tearing the robber's entire body, including bones, internal organs, muscles, and skin, in two without any resistance, starting from his shoulder blade.
In an instant, a flower of blood bloomed in front of the bank lobby, while Bai Ye slightly turned his head and stared at the last remaining robber leader who was still able to move.
Looking at the man shrouded in red and black, it was just a simple glance, but the robber felt as if he were being watched by a prehistoric tyrannosaurus.
As Bai Ye approached step by step, cold sweat broke out on the leader of the robbers. He pointed his pistol at Bai Ye's forehead and fired three shots, but Bai Ye easily dodged them all by turning his head.
At this moment, Bai Ye's physical abilities have exceeded the limits of humanity, and his mental strength of 1.5 allows him to simulate the trajectory of the pistol in front of him in his mind.
A force of 1.7 can also be used to dodge an opponent's bullet one second before it leaves the barrel.
As the leader emptied his pistol, Bai Ye walked up to him, grabbed the robber by the collar, and slapped him hard across the face.
"I'm asking you, what are you doing robbing a bank if you can't even do it? What do you think robbing a bank is? You bastard!"
Bai Ye repeatedly slapped the robber's cheek with his right hand, making dull thuds. As he slapped, he asked with exasperation, "Robbing a bank is fun? Do you think this is child's play? You're putting on a melodramatic show in front of me. You can't even rob a bank counter properly."
Although he had stopped exerting his strength, the leader still felt as if he were being slapped by a giant bear. His thoughts became disjointed, and he was quickly beaten to death by Bai Ye's Great Memory Restoration Technique.
After killing the robber, Bai Ye impatiently straightened his blood-stained shirt.
Looking at the splashes of blood throughout the hall, Bai Ye remained calm despite it being the first time he had ever seen blood on his hands. He had seen this kind of thing many times during his years in the underworld and was mentally prepared for it.
Bai Ye got up and went to a corner, took out his briefcase from a pile of looted money, and then turned around and walked step by step toward the bound hostage.
Seeing Bai Ye approach, especially with bloodstains still on his fair face, they all backed away in fright.
Bai Ye walked up to the customer service representative, bent down, and slowly and methodically untied the ropes binding her.
Amid the customer service representative's bewildered gaze, he pushed his briefcase forward and smiled, "Open an anonymous account for cleanup purposes."
Chapter 22 I'm just a fitness enthusiast
At this moment, Director George outside the bank is facing a dilemma.
On one hand, they had to agree to the kidnappers' request, compromise with them, let them leave, and then rescue the other hostages.
On the other hand, they might take a hard line and launch a direct assault, which could result in huge casualties.
But regardless of the method used, the end result is a huge blow to the credibility of the New York Police Department.
He personally prefers the first method, as it would be the best way to preserve the hostages.
As for the robbers, George, who knew the powerful forces behind the bank, had no doubt about their fate.
However, his superiors directly demanded over the phone that a tough stance be taken against the robbers, and that there be no room for retreat.
While he was taking a few minutes to make his decision, a series of gunshots rang out from inside the bank, putting George on edge.
Because the robbers had destroyed all the surveillance cameras inside, he was unaware of the situation inside and assumed that the robbers were impatiently urging him on.
Meanwhile, the belated negotiation expert was speaking into the microphone: "Listen up, people inside! We are preparing your demands. Do not harm the hostages. We can discuss any issues you may have."
Inside, Bai Ye, covered in blood, listened calmly to the announcements outside and waited for customer service to count the cash in his suitcase and deposit it into his account. This money was now officially under the bank's management, and he would not be held responsible for anything that happened afterward.
After resolving these issues, Bai Ye finally breathed a sigh of relief. He wiped the blood from his face, washed his hands briefly at the sink, and then calmly pushed open the bank door and walked out.
The police officers who had been waiting anxiously outside were already getting impatient. When they saw someone come out, they all looked over, only to find that it was the same Asian youth who had come out.
However, compared to his previous clean black and white checkered shirt, Bai Ye's white clothes were now covered with large patches of blood red, making him look as if he had just walked out of a battlefield of carnage.
George's heart skipped a beat, almost convinced that the robbers inside were massacring the hostages, but Bai Ye slowly raised the phone and said, "Officer, everything's alright. The robbers have all been killed. You can come over now."
"What do you mean?" George listened to the voice on the walkie-talkie, wondering if he had misheard.
“You’re too slow. I’ve already killed the robbers. You can come and close the net now,” Bai Ye repeated.
"You beat...beaten to death?" The officers next to the walkie-talkie were all stunned.
"I think I killed most of them, but there was one left who had been shot and was unable to resist, so I didn't attack him." Bai Ye used more cautious words.
After saying that, he gently tossed the phone aside and walked toward the police. As he approached, a strong smell of blood wafted over, causing the nearby officers to frown.
Although he was completely bewildered, George still went to greet Bai Ye when he saw her coming. Soon, a police officer came over to help him, but Bai Ye stopped him, saying, "There's no need. I'm not injured."
And that was indeed the case; if his bones and muscles might have shattered from the excessive force, then so be it.
But just before the battle began, he had already allocated all 0.2 attribute points to Constitution, achieving a balance between Strength and Defense.
