Wilderness Redemption Tour
Chapter 235 Backdoor
"Do you believe him or me?" After Dutch said this, everyone looked at each other in silence, but Bill soon broke the silence.
"Why aren't you talking? Do you still need to think about such an obvious question? Of course I believe Daqi! Those guys outside the door are obviously here to arrest us, and I don't believe a word they say." Bill said sullenly.
In the end, Bill, who was recognized by everyone as the most brainless person, was the most "clear-headed". His words awakened those "fence-sitters" who were weak-willed and began to have small thoughts under Milton's inducement. So after Bill finished speaking, everyone said bluntly, "Me too."
Dutch smiled slightly after receiving everyone's approval. He took out a small bundle of explosives from the sack he had been carrying, which he had intended to use to store money. He held it in his hand and said, "Time is urgent, so I'll be brief." Then, he pointed to the employee lounge facing the side door and said, "When Hosea visited and investigated, I remember he said that this room was next to the back alley, where there was an escalator leading to the roof. I think the defense up there must be the weakest, because these Pinkerton detectives never thought that we would escape from the roof."
"Bill, go blow up that wall now." Dutch handed the dynamite to Bill and reminded him, "Time is urgent, do it quickly."
After Bill took the explosives and walked towards the staff lounge, Dutch continued, "The explosion will definitely make a loud noise, and the group of people outside will definitely attack immediately after hearing it. It will take time for so many of us to climb up to the roof. Since you trust me so much, I will cover you as you leave. However, I am not doing this simply to commit suicide. The person who goes up first must cover the people behind him on the roof."
Having said that, as the last person to leave, the danger that Dutch will face is self-evident.
After hearing this, those who had just been thinking about persuading Dutch to surrender couldn't help but feel guilty for having such thoughts. As for Dutch's loyal fans, John and Javier even expressed their willingness to stay with Dutch to cover the departure of others.
If Bill had not been assigned by Dutch to blow up the wall, Lin Yan guessed that he would definitely stay. This was indeed the case. After the battle started, Bill quietly stood on the same front with Dutch and took the responsibility of covering the others' departure.
Agent Milton appeared on the scene again when there were only ten seconds left. He held a pocket watch in his hand, looked at the bank door, then looked at the pocket watch in his hand again. His face was serious and he did not smile. No one knew what he was thinking at this moment.
Seeing that there were only three seconds left and the door of the bank opposite showed no sign of opening, Agent Milton closed his pocket watch with a "snap" and prepared his agents to launch an attack.
At this moment, a dull explosion from inside the bank interrupted the attack order he was about to issue.
This group of people wanted to blow out a back door and escape!
Agent Milton understood almost immediately after hearing the explosion. He turned to Agent Ross, who had been standing beside him, and said, "I'll leave this to you. I'll take some people to the back alley of the bank. We can't let them get away again this time."
Agent Ross nodded without hesitation, grabbed the Lancaster rifle that he had always carried on his shoulder with one hand, swung it forward, and shouted loudly: "Attention, second team! Attack! Attack with all your strength!"
Inside the bank, Dutch acquiesced to John and Javier staying with him. It was absurd for him to hold off the dozens or even hundreds of fully armed Pinkerton detectives outside by himself. No matter how good his marksmanship was, the two revolvers in his hands could only hold twelve rounds of bullets, which was not enough to cover the retreat of others. Now that John and Javier had joined, although the number of people was not as high as he expected, it was much better than facing a group of enemies alone.
Since the Pinkerton detective appeared, Lin Yan paid more attention to Lenny, and even stood beside Lenny in the name of better vision and more convenient observation. He was afraid that Lenny's life was taken by a cold gun shot from nowhere, just like what Arthur encountered when he first came to this world. At that time, he was standing next to Arthur and sensed the danger and saved Arthur, and he stood beside Lenny to prevent this from happening.
Bill took the explosives into the employee lounge and rushed out only ten seconds later, yelling, "Take cover! It's going to explode!"
Most people were standing near the service desk in the center of the bank. This octagonal service desk was a thick, solid wood structure, and it was easy to block the aftermath of the explosion. Hearing Bill's words, the people nearby squatted down and safely avoided the impact of the explosion.
Lin Yan and Lanny were still guarding near the side door at this time, so they were not affected by the explosion at all. However, the bank customers and employees who were locked up by the crowd let out a few short screams again when they heard the explosion so close to them.
After the explosion, accompanied by the sound of shattering glass, the Pinkerton detectives led by Agent Ross launched a fierce attack on the bank. Dutch stood up in the nick of time and shouted while fighting back, "Go! Those who leave first, go to the roof to cover the others going up."
Micah, who was closest to Dutch, was the first to move. Although he was holding a bag of money that he had just taken from the vault, he did not slow down at all. He ran around Dutch and ran straight to the employee lounge whose door had been blown crooked.
In addition to the service desk which served as a shelter, the bank lobby was surrounded by four concrete pillars that served both as decoration and as support. Therefore, despite the fierce firepower of the Pinkerton detectives outside the door, the pressure faced by everyone was actually not that great.
Seeing that Micah left first, Lin Yan quickly pulled Lenny to follow. Now the battle downstairs had already begun, for Lenny's safety, it would be better to take him upstairs first.
After Lin Yan and Lanny, Sean and Charles followed.
Rushing to the staff lounge, Lin Yan saw that the room was in a mess. A large hole about one meter wide and two meters high was blown open in the wall opposite the door. Broken bricks were scattered everywhere, especially in the alley behind the hole. Fortunately, there were not so many that it was impossible to step.
Micah, who came in first, had already crawled out of the hole and stood in the alley. A black vertical iron ladder was not far from the hole. Micah could almost reach it with his hand. But just as he was about to reach out and grab the ladder, he keenly sensed something and quickly withdrew his hand, pulled out the revolver at his waist, and fired several rounds at the alley entrance.
