HKTV: How is the Great Owl made?

Over here at the police station.

Deputy Director Jack, who is in charge of negotiations, is questioning the driver.

"Jim, what you mean is that you didn't see what the robber looked like at all, and you were wearing a blindfold after being hijacked."

"You'll be at Queen Mary Hospital when you wake up, right?"

Jack asked himself.

"Yes, Mr. Director, I have no idea who they are."

The police driver named Jim nodded and said. His face was still full of fear at this moment.

The whole process of being blindfolded, not knowing where to go, and having an unpredictable future makes him still tremble when he thinks about it.

"Is there no firefight at the scene?" Jack continued to ask.

"No, no firearms were used at all. Those robbers were very good at separating each other with their bare hands."

"Those seven police officers from Country M were no match for them. They were subdued almost as soon as they made contact."

"I got punched in the forehead and I don't know anything anymore," the driver replied.

Seeing that he couldn't find any useful information at all, Jack stopped asking and asked the driver to rest.

Judging from this driver's behavior, he needs to see a psychiatrist.

To correct the psychological trauma caused by the endless fear he suffered.

Jack was frustrated with the result of the driver's incomprehensible questions, but it was also within his expectations.

The reason why the robbers let the driver back was because they knew he didn't know much information.

Moreover, the one who was released was a police officer from Hong Kong Island, and none of the other seven M-countrymen were released.

Jack felt that there was no need to report to Hanks in a situation like this, because it would be a useless effort.

When he was about to drink tea and think, a subordinate came over and reported to him.

"Sir, the robber called again. The other party actually knew that you were in charge of the negotiations, and asked you to answer the call by name."

After hearing this, Jack's expression changed and he immediately walked to the negotiation team's office diagonally opposite the office.

Picked up the phone and asked: "I am the Jack you are looking for, what's the matter?"

"Mr. Jack, I have shown my sincerity by putting the driver back. He has not been abused in any way, right?"

The robber's voice on the phone was very relaxed, like having tea and dinner with an old friend.

I want to know what you call it? Jack said slowly.

"You can call me whatever you want, you can also call me Mr. Robber."

"The key is whether you are ready for the ransom or do you want to receive the body?" the robber said with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll call you Mr. Robber. We are going to exchange the ransom for those 7 people from Country M, but how exactly are we going to deal with them?"

"It's very simple. Before 6:30 pm, you drive the car with the money to the place called Zuoma under Jiulong Peak."

"After we confirm that the numbers are correct, we will release him, but we must wait until we take the money out of Hong Kong Island before the transaction is completed."

"Be sure to remember not to play any tricks, otherwise you will receive seven corpses."

"And we will also tell the media about this and provide some evidence that is even more unfavorable to you. By then, you, Mr. Jack, and Mr. Hanks will step down."

"By the way, I'm telling you, no matter what tricks you try, you can't beat me!"

The robber's tone was very arrogant, which made Brother Jie furious!

But there is nothing we can do.

When Jack was about to ask about the health of the seven M-countrymen, the other party had already hung up the phone.

Jack immediately looked at the communications expert next to him and asked:

"Michaelson, have you found the sending location of the other party's signal this time? Where did the other party call come from?"

Michelson was extremely surprised and said:

"Sir. It's so strange. It's like a ghost!"

"What happened?" Jack asked loudly.

"The signal transmission point shown this time is actually less than 5 meters away from us, which is the police station building," Michelson replied.

fuck, fuck, fuck! !

Hear what Michelson said.

Jack was absolutely furious.

It is obvious that the communication technology possessed by the other party can block and forge the signal transmission point of the satellite phone, even anywhere.

In other words, until now, the other party has been playing around with the police department like a monkey.

After putting down the phone, Jack immediately dialed Hanks' number on another phone.

"Mr. Director, this is Jack. The robber called just now..."

Then Jack reported what had just happened to Hanks in detail, and finally asked:

"Mr. Director, how was the communication between you and the Governor of Hong Kong regarding the ransom? What did he say?"

Over the phone, Hanks said:

"Mr. Hong Kong Governor's intention is to negotiate, pay ransom, and resolve the matter as soon as possible."

"He authorized us to use the police's emergency reserve fund as ransom, but there is a procedure to use this money, which is to go to the icac to register."

"You ask the deputy director of the Finance Department to prepare the money. As long as the icac approves it, the money will be sent to the designated location on Jiulong Peak as the robber said."

Remember not to let the media know. Otherwise we are very passive.

"Yes, Mr. Director, I know!" Jack replied.

Then, Jack immediately called Green, the deputy chief of the police finance department, to convey Hanks' meaning.

The robbers gave a time of 6:30 pm, but it would take another 1-2 hours to get to Kowloon Peak from here, so Jack set the time to collect the reward before 4:30 pm.

The ransom of 140 million must be prepared before 4:30 pm.

If this matter can be settled today, it will be really Amitabha.

Because now no reporter in Hong Kong Island has called to inquire about this matter.

No TV station has reported this matter.

In other words, as far as this matter itself is concerned, the police department has done it watertight, and no one has leaked the secret.

In fact, Jack didn't know at all.

All major media have actually received some news, but they just don't know what it is.

It was Lin Yao who provided them with the information!

Lin Yao asked these reporters who knew a little bit of information to hold back and cooperate with his action this time.

Now Lin Yao's control over the Hong Kong media is no longer the same as before!

Even the Hong Kong Police Department's Political Department doesn't know how much public opinion power Lin Yao has now!

The foreigners were all paralyzed, and they were still complacent.

They thought that the confidentiality work was done perfectly, and it could be regarded as a perfect example of confidentiality in the past hundred years.

But they never expected that Lin Yao had opened his "bloody mouth" to them at this moment!

...

The time soon reached 3:30 in the afternoon.

But Jack still did not receive Hanks' order.

Without the approval of ICAC and the approval of Hanks, Jack had no right to use the 140 million ransom.

But the time required by the robbers was getting closer and closer, which made Jack very panic.

If the robbers judged that they had no sincerity in giving the ransom, the 7 M people would definitely be killed.

According to the information revealed by the other party, the 7 M people would be cut into pieces.

At that time, it would be a complete loss for the Police Department.

Finally at 3:38, Jack received a call from Hanks, who asked on the phone: "Is the money ready?"

Jack glanced at Green, the head of the Finance Department, and asked: "Mr. Director called, is the money ready?"

Green nodded. He said: "It's all ready. 140 million are all old currency, non-consecutive numbers."

Jack nodded, and then said to Hanks on the other end of the phone:

"Mr. Director, the money is ready."

"Well, I'm on my way back now, Fuck!"

"Brooklyn, the boss of ICAC, did not approve us to use the money. I went directly to the Governor of Hong Kong and got a special Governor's Order to get the right to use the money."

Hanks' tone on the other end of the phone seemed very angry and helpless.

There is no way, ICAC is an independent organization.

In addition to the Governor of Hong Kong, it can hold any civil servant in Hong Kong Island accountable and investigate.

So even if Hanks is the Commissioner of Police, he is powerful.

But to use the emergency funds of the Police Force, you must obtain the permission of ICAC, otherwise it is misappropriation of public funds and abuse of power.

ICAC believes that the Police Force should not use taxpayers' money as ransom.

As the protectors of Hong Kong Island citizens, they should not appear so weak.

But they should bravely fight these robbers, rescue the hostages, and catch the robbers one by one.

Giving ransom is incompetent.

In Brooklyn's office, Hanks was scolded by Brooklyn.

There is no way, he can only ask Peng Modai for help and let Peng Modai give it to him directly. Sign a governor's order.

In this way, he can get the right to use the 140 million emergency funds.

After all, the person who reports to ICAC is Peng Modai.

Although Peng Modai has the power to appoint and dismiss the head of Icac, he cannot interfere with the specific business of ICAC, so he can only think of this other way.

After hanging up the phone, Jack said to Green: "Mr. Director has received the Governor's Order specially issued by the Governor of Hong Kong."

"Get the money ready immediately, we have the right to use it."

But Green shook his head and said:

"According to the procedure, I must see the Governor's Order specially issued by the Governor of Hong Kong before I can take the money out of the vault, otherwise I will be investigated by the ICC."

"Since they don't agree to use the money, they will definitely investigate the entire procedure."

"That's what those bastards did, Mr. Jack, you should understand it very well."

Green is certainly not stupid. If he uses it illegally, the ICC will investigate it.

According to the current laws of Hong Kong Island, he will have to go to jail for at least three years and then lose his job.

Jack is of course very clear about the nature of those bastards in the ICC.

Those people are just picking bones in eggs, there is no way, he can only sigh.

As the deputy commissioner of the police force responsible for operations, Jack has no right to order Green to take the money out now.

Otherwise, when the investigation begins, he will also go to jail, so all he can do now is wait.

Wait for Hanks to bring the Governor's Order.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, Hanks rushed back to the police department.

After Green confirmed the Governor's Order, he finally returned to the Finance Department and issued an order to open the vault to withdraw money.

When Green prepared the money, the time had come. 4:53. There was only one hour and 37 minutes left for the time required by the robbers.

It would take one and a half hours to get from the police station to the place called Shangzuoma on Kowloon Peak at the fastest speed.

And it was necessary to ensure that there was no traffic jam on the road, otherwise it might not be possible to make it even in two hours.

Under Hanks's order, the traffic police made certain arrangements for the routes to be passed to ensure that the money transport vehicle would have a green light after arriving at the intersection and pass all the way.

In addition, Hanks would certainly not give up.

He had ordered the blue hat uniforms and more than 2,000 Flying Tigers to be on standby.

All the exits of Kowloon Peak, big and small, were blocked to ensure that the robbers could not escape.

Kowloon Peak, also known as Fei'e Mountain.

It is located at the junction of Wong Tai Sin District, Kwun Tong District, Sai Kung District and Sha Tin District in Hong Kong.

It is 602 meters high and is the highest mountain in Kowloon.

The top of the mountain is steep, but the scenery is excellent.

Standing on the observation deck at the top of the mountain, you can enjoy the scenery of the entire Kowloon Peninsula, Shatin and Ho Chung offshore.

You can enjoy the vast sea and dozens of islands in Sai Kung, as well as the panoramic view of the entire Kowloon and Hong Kong Island.

With green lights all the way, it took a total of one hour and 25 minutes to get from Central to Kowloon Peak.

After parking the money transport car at the designated small place called Shangzuoma, the driver of the money transport car reported the situation here to Jack.

After listening to the report, Brother Jie asked his men to call the number that the robber called, but he couldn't get through at all.

Obviously, the other party was a virtual number.

Just when he was anxious, the robber called.

Jack immediately said, "Mr. Robber, our money has been delivered to the place you specified called Shangzuoma."

"You should release the people now, right? Otherwise, I can't see your sincerity at all."

"Mr. Jack, I said that after the money and our people leave Hong Kong Island, the seven M people will appear in front of you." The robber hung up the phone directly after saying that.

Hanks asked Jack, "Jack, what did the robber say?"

Jack shook his head and said, "The other party still insisted that his people and money would be released only after they left Hong Kong Island safely."

"But now we are all our people here, will the robbers find any clues? By then, we will be passive."

Hearing what Jack said, Hanks fell into thought.

Ten seconds later, he ordered:

"Let the troops on the east and west withdraw first and hide in place."

"We will catch them when we see them taking the money. They can't escape from my grasp this time!"

After receiving Hanks' order, Jack ordered the Flying Tigers and Blue Hats deployed on the east and west sides of Kowloon Peak to retreat and hide.

As long as the robbers dare to touch the money-carrying car, they will be firmly located.

Because there are 8 tracking locators on the car.

No matter where he goes, the police department can ensure that the car will not leave their control. (End of this chapter)
