Chapter Nine: Falling into One's Own Trap

The old police officer asked in confusion, "A metal box?"

Captain Bian patted the recorder beside him and said, "You go take a break, let Yanan come to record!"

Gao Yang said: "Saving money, I believe it won't affect your off-duty time!" The manager, upon hearing Gao Yang's words, couldn't help but blush and then replied: "The main issue is the network shutdown; we provide 24/7 service to our clients without any complaints!"

As soon as Gaoyang finished speaking, Shiyao interjected from the side, "No!"

Li Yating finished speaking, and Wang Longsheng said, "I won't leave; you can arrange for the three of them!" The headquarters of the "Gray Pigeons" under Wang Longsheng's command is located in Shanghai, so he certainly does not need to leave.

"Gao Dangjia, the brothers who went to send him off have already sent back news. Can we take action now?" After entering the room, Li Yating walked to the balcony and said while looking out the window

On that afternoon, Li Yating utilized his connections in transportation to set up a scheme, safely escorting Shi Yao, Hua Liang, and Zhang Lei out of Shanghai. Three hours after their departure, Gao Yang moved out of the Junyue Hotel and checked into a mid-range inn

Ah? Upon hearing this, the female officer, with a face full of grievance, pushed the door open and walked up to the station chief, saying: "If I wanted to take a clerical position, why would I come all the way to Shanghai? Cousin, you must not agree to this!"

Li Yating was even more bewildered ...! ... The woman who had just effortlessly taken down her five capable subordinates with a mere wave of her hand was so different from just a moment ago!

Li Yating was momentarily taken aback and then said in a tone of resignation: "There are many ways to expose something, so why specifically return what has been obtained?"

Captain Bian smiled at her and said, "Even if there are major cases, it has nothing to do with you. Your father called me and said to let you first take on a clerical position for a year!"

Gao Yang smiled helplessly and said, "Demon child, be obedient. At most, in one month, I will come to find you!"

At that moment, the door to the interrogation room was pushed open, and a young officer entered, saying: "Team Leader Bian, this is the statement from the security guard"

Twenty minutes later, the police arrived, sealed off the scene, and began questioning witnesses and other related tasks. Thirty minutes later, 60% of the city's police force was deployed to track the vehicle of the criminal suspect. Thirty-five minutes later, news came in. Both the half-truck and the van were found, parked right at the main entrance of the film city across from the bank. Both vehicles were empty, completely sealed off, and awaiting relevant departments to collect samples.

After arriving at the new hotel, Gaoyang made a phone call to Hualiang. He spoke only two sentences before hanging up the phone and then burned the SIM card

Gao Yang smiled faintly without saying a word. Li Yating pointed at Zhang Lei and said, "You are the turning point of this situation; only if you leave in a huff will the great director be looking for new actors!" Zhang Lei nodded proudly. If Wu Meng were here, he would certainly recognize at a glance that this was the young man who had been scolded by the director that morning.

Gao Yang said with a bitter smile: "Having 5 people together is too conspicuous. The reason I dressed up as a bearded man this morning was to draw all of the security guard's attention to me."

Ah? Sir, please wait a moment

When he reached this point, an old police officer interjected, "You can remember what that person looked like, right?"

Impressive! I am truly impressed by Mr. Li! After closing his eyes and recalling several key moments from the thousand games, Li Yating exclaimed loudly while slapping the table.

Li Yating said: "Well, it's up to you. The bank will close in an hour, so act sooner. I analyze that as long as you bring this much money in, the bank staff will call the police during the transaction. I'm afraid that by then, you won't even have the chance to leave the bank"

Gao Yang lit a cigarette and took a deep puff before saying, "Hmm! Li Dangjia, don't be polite, just call me Xiao Gao. I am planning to go to the bank to deposit the 7,330,000 I withdrew this morning." Although the bank was not large, it had a very high foot traffic, so every day there was a basic amount of 10 million sent over. Gao Yang's three backpacks had not yet emptied that basic amount, and he only took out a total of 7,330,000.

Gao Yang smiled and said: "This afternoon, I will reveal my whereabouts to divert the police's attention. Then, you will send all my friends out of Shanghai. After that, you must help me safely escape from the surveillance of the Sky Net"

Finally, Li Yating looked at Gao Yang and said: "To be able to design such a complex game in such a short time, the top eight generals are indeed a hundred times better than us mere mortals. I, Li, always keep my word; please present the challenge!" Li Yating was quite excited; he had also participated in the game this morning, playing the role of a robber sitting in the passenger seat. As for the roles of the camera operators and others, he had recruited a few brothers who had just arrived from out of town to take on those duties.

"Working hours, call the captain!" Bian Tong pointed to the position of the recorder beside him and said in a low voice

Gao Yang walked up to the ticket machine, and the manager approached with a smile, saying: "May I ask what service you would like to request, sir"

I am not lying to you! Gao Yang simply said three words, and then turned to Li Yating and said: Please, Master Li, make the arrangements

You are lying! You said the same thing two years ago!

Gao Yang gently patted the hand of Shi Yao, then continued to address the contemplative Li Yating, saying: "Is there a problem with this?"

Gaoyang Dao: "This is merely a preliminary arrangement. The various roles of the Qianmen and the Eight Generals are assigned accordingly, but due to the absence of three individuals in the Yanweizi, it is difficult to create a complete plan. I have also mentioned before that I wish to see whether Li Dangjia's ability to assist others in escaping is suitable for my Qianmen Tuojiang!"

"Cousin, did you hear about the major case?" A female police officer poked her head in from outside, her face filled with excitement as she asked.

Manager Wang nodded

The old police officer continued to ask, "Did that person tell you whether the security guard at your bank did anything good?"

Before leaving, Gaoyang took a special look at the surveillance camera mounted at the main entrance

Cousin! Chen Yanan still wants to resist

Manager Wang was momentarily taken aback and said, "What contract? I have never signed any contract; I did sign my name, but that was for agreeing to their interview." Captain Bian was also quite clear about it; the so-called contract was nothing more than a written document in which they promised to provide compensation for cooperating with the interview. Of course, there was no need to expose this at the moment: "What an unfathomable trickery!" Captain Bian lit a cigarette for himself and took a deep puff.

Li Yating paused for a moment and asked, "How do we test it?"

At 5:55 PM, Gao Yang arrived at a bank in the city center carrying a large leather bag. At this time, the bank was about to close, and the lobby was very quiet.

When Wu Meng first went out, I did not pay attention to what he was doing. Later, a tall man wearing glasses approached me and said that Wu Meng had done a good deed, and the television station wanted to interview him. He hoped that I could wait for half an hour and also hoped that I would eventually cooperate with the interview.

Ten minutes later, the security guard of the bank realized he had been deceived, while the onlookers outside were still unclear about what had happened, continuing to peer into the bank from a distance

Alright! Team Leader Bian! The recorder put down the work in hand, cast a sympathetic glance at Chen Yanan, and then walked out the door. This action by Team Leader Bian undoubtedly stamped Chen Yanan's one-year civilian career with a seal of approval.

At this moment, the designer of this grand scheme is having tea in Li Yating's villa

Li Yating confidently declared, "It's a small matter! You can just send out the news now, and I can arrange for all 5 of you to leave Shanghai without any issues"

On that noon, the Shanghai Public Security Bureau established a major case team in response to the fraud case that occurred in the morning. In fact, there were considerable disagreements within the police regarding whether this case should be classified as fraud. The police investigated nearly thirty years of fraud cases, and found no similar methods in any of them

Wang Longsheng and others, upon seeing Shi Yao's eyes resembling the new moon and fresh spring, could not help but let out a long sigh

At 5 PM, Li Yating arrived alone at the hotel

"Deposit, 7.33 million," Gao Yang said as he handed the suitcase to the lobby manager. Large sums of deposits cannot be passed through the window bit by bit; there are too many safety concerns. Therefore, cash amounts exceeding one million are directly handled by the manager to the back office. Upon hearing the figure of 7.33 million, the person was momentarily taken aback. In that moment of surprise, Gao Yang added, "I believe it will take you some time to count the money. I will go out to buy something and return in 5 minutes." With that, he turned and left.

Gao Yang said lightly: "I have a way; as long as Li Dangjia arranges the escape route, it will be fine"

Manager Wang nodded and said: "I mentioned it! They said they were saving someone. At that time, I even glanced over there at the library and saw Wu Mengzheng sitting in front of the camera chatting with that big bearded man, so I didn't go over. Shortly after, that big guy came over again and brought us a banner. Moreover, it was delivered in an iron box!"

Gao Yang smiled and said, "There are many rules in the Qianmen, and some money cannot be taken!"

One hour after the incident occurred, the bank security personnel, lobby manager, and other key employees involved were taken to the police station for thorough questioning

Wang Longsheng smiled and responded, "What Li Dangjia said is quite right"

Li Yating pointed at Hualiang and said, "You are the key to this operation. You maneuvered between the bank's lobby manager and the security guard, which allowed that guard to feel at ease and fall into the trap!" Hualiang fiddled with the teacup in front of him, not responding, not even lifting his head. However, Li Yating was completely unfazed by his actions and continued excitedly, "You are the core of this operation! Your two performances of feigned nervousness not only controlled the emotions of the onlookers but also placed pressure on that security guard to succeed in one attempt!"

Captain Bian looked up after reviewing the record for a while and asked, "Did you also provide those individuals with a simple contract?"

Manager Wang swallowed and said softly: "It's about right. It's just that the glasses are a bit too large. They almost cover half of the face. The person talking to Xiao Wu left a deep impression on me, with a face full of beard."

I will not leave either!" Shi Yao suddenly withdrew his hand from Gao Yang's palm and said resolutely

Li Yating nodded and said: "Since that is the case, you do not need to leak any information immediately. The airport and train stations are certainly under strict scrutiny now. I will first send these four friends out of Shanghai. After they leave, you can create some commotion and see my methods with the tuna!"
