Hardy Empire 1945

Hardy kept Tyler under his body all the time, and there were constant explosions and bullets outside, but Tyler found that he was not as frightened as he thought.

Hiding in Mr. Hardy's arms, she had an unprecedented sense of security, as if nothing had to worry about anything as long as she hid in his arms.

Taylor even took a peek outside.

The robbery was over, and the robbers finally left.

When the two came out of the corner, they saw that the whole street was in chaos. Several passersby were killed, and several wounded were lying on the ground and wailing.

Banks are even worse.

The glass was all shattered, and the inside was full of mess. Hardy looked at the bank plaque, Bank of America Los Angeles Branch Merriman Street Sales Department.

Hardy knew Bank of America.

It is also called Bank of America in later generations. It is one of the top commercial banks in the United States, with branches all over the United States. Even today in 1946, Bank of America is one of the top banks in California.

He also knew that it was this bank that first invented the bank credit card in 1959, which was later called s.

Hardy wonders who did this robbery?

Certainly not the Bill Gang.

Hardy had issued a strict order before that Bill Gang only did gray business, and things like drug trafficking and robbery must not be done, because the business of slot machines has already made a lot of money.

Jewish gang?

Neither.

These robbers are crazy.

Losing grenades in robbery and indiscriminately shooting and injuring people are extremely vicious behaviors.

The robbery finally got the money, these guys also dropped bombs in the bank, the behavior is just crazy.

Not at all Jewish gang style.

Irish or Mexican, or sharks from somewhere else?

Hardy couldn't guess for a while.

Take Taylor by the hand out of the chaos and get her home on a motorcycle.

doorstep,

Tyler looked at Hardy and asked, Mr. Hardy, will you teach me in the future?

Hardy patted the girl's head, The production crew will send you the script in two days. During this time, you can try to figure it out. I will come to you when I have time. If there is anything you don't understand, you can also give it to me. Call up.

Taylor nodded vigorously.

Say goodbye to Tyler Hardy, return to the security company, and find Lanster directly, An hour ago, there was a bank robbery on Merriman Street, and I was not far away.

There were six robbers. They made explosions with grenades and shot with machine guns. All eight security guards in charge of the cash truck were killed, and several innocent people died around. When the robbers left, they threw them into the bank. Two grenades were fired.

The robbers removed 4 tin boxes. I estimate it was more than one hundred thousand dollars. Lanster, do you think the police can catch the robbers?

Lanster pouted and shook his head, As long as you're an American, no one will have confidence in the police. I've done some investigations during this time. Last year alone, there were 12 bank robberies and cash truck robberies in Los Angeles, with losses of more than one year. Millions, but there are only a handful of cases that can be solved, only one case, and all the others have fallen into the sea.

Lanster, I think our chance has come. Hardy said with a slight smile.

Oh, what did you think of? Lanster asked curiously.

Hardy lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said, What do you think the robbers would think if we found the robbers and took the money back to the bank?

Lanster paused for a moment and said, The bank is robbed, and the insurance company compensates for the loss of money. The bank has no loss, but if the money is recovered, it will be a great publicity for the bank's reputation.

They can use this to make a fuss about how strong their bank is and how strong they can protect their customers' property. Reputation is the most important thing for a bank.

Hardy clapped his hands.

Yes, it's reputation. Banks care about reputation. We can make a fuss about this.

Hardy picked up the phone and called Bill.

Bill, there was a bank robbery on Merriman Street this afternoon, there were six robbers,

You now unleash the full power of the gang to find out the whereabouts of these robbers. ' said Hardy.

Good boss.

Bill agreed without any hesitation.

Hanging up Bill's phone, Hardy called the Jewish gang boss Vlad again and told him about the robbery.

Fred frowned deeply.

Because Merriman Street is considered Jewish gang territory.

Fred, I hope the Jewish help to find the clues and whereabouts of these robbers. Hardy said.

What do you want Hardy?

I want to make a business with those robbers.

Take the money they robbed?

No, to help the bank get the money back.

Hanging up Fred's phone, Hardy said to Lanster again: Scatter all the people from the security company, and let them find clues and see what they can find.

Okay, I'll make arrangements now. Lanster replied.

After a few calls from Hardy, most of the underground forces in Los Angeles started to operate with a bang, looking for the whereabouts of these robbers.

the next day.

Almost all the newspapers in Los Angeles were headlined by the bank robbery, and Hardy flipped through it while eating breakfast.

Los Angeles Times:

Yesterday, there was a very bad bank robbery on Merriman Avenue. The cash truck of the Los Angeles branch of the Bank of America was collecting cash. The cash truck was parked at the entrance of the business department on Merriman Avenue. A group of robbers rushed out and shot with grenades and machine guns. Eight security guards were killed and cash worth 1.28 million was robbed.

During the robbery, the robbers used grenades and machine guns to shoot. Three innocent passersby were killed and five passersby were injured.

Before the robbers left, they threw two grenades at the bank, killing 2 people in the hall and injuring 11 people on the spot.

This is an extremely bad robbery case. The robbers have no humanity. They shot and killed innocent people. A total of 13 people were killed and 16 others were injured. We strongly condemn this behavior and urge the Los Angeles Police Department to solve the case as soon as possible.

The newspapers were accompanied by photos of the scene. The bank was bombed beyond recognition. Several people came out of the bank with blood on their faces.

Another also described the robbery process, and finally said: There are more than a dozen bank robberies in Los Angeles every year, causing great losses to banks and the public. Some even call Los Angeles the robbery capital and crime capital.

The Los Angeles Police Department has done nothing, and let the people live in fear every day. As the second largest city in the United States, where Hollywood is located, this kind of law and order has made the city develop and where is the taxpayer's money.

A total of more than a dozen newspapers, in addition to reporting robberies, criticized government inaction and police incompetence

town Hall.

The mayor called Police Chief Ed over, and after a harsh criticism, he sternly said that he must solve the case as soon as possible.

Ed bowed his head.

The top management of Bank of America called me and said that this was the fourth time their bank was robbed in Los Angeles in five years. It had a great impact on the bank's reputation. The government must give an explanation.

Ed, I don't care what method you use to catch those bastards, even corpses. In short, I want to see the results.

Back at the police station, Ed put all his anger on his subordinates again. While scolding the bastards, he ordered them to go out to find people. The robbers must be found.

When his subordinates left, Ed sat on the chair and sighed.

In fact, he understood very well.

The chances of catching those robbers are slim to none.

Even the previous cases were solved by coincidence, such as uneven distribution of stolen goods and infighting. In short, it was not the clues found by the rubbish of his subordinates. He was too clear about the ability of his subordinates.

just wait.

Wait a few days for the momentum to pass.

People gradually forget,

Also got mixed up.

Unexpectedly, the next day, the newspaper reported another breaking news. Bank of America expressed anger at the robbery case and offered a reward of $20,000 to bring the robbers to justice.

For a time, many newspapers reprinted it.

Director Ed was called over by the mayor and scolded again, demanding that the case must be solved within half a month, and if he could not solve the case, let him get out.

Ed called several of the deputy director's men to ask if there were any clues, and several of them said that there was no gain now.

Ed pointed to a few of his subordinates and scolded:

If the case cannot be solved within 15 days, I will face resignation, but you can rest assured that I will fire you before I leave, and now I will mobilize everyone to find clues.

Several deputy directors hurried out.

Five days passed in a flash.

The robbers seemed to have disappeared. The police did not find any clues. Ed was getting more and more anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

Hardy Security Strategy Research Office.

Hardy and Lanster were looking at a map of Los Angeles, and Lanster drew a circle at a location with a red pen.

The robbers are right here, a junkyard.

Hardy smiled softly, Irish land, very good.

To be able to determine the location of these robbers, Hardy and the others put a lot of effort into mobilizing all their men to collect all useful clues.

In a second-hand car dealership, a guy provided clues that a group of people came to their dealership a few days ago, and they had enough of a car similar to the black car used by the robbers. The brand of the black car was provided by Hardy, because he Was at the scene and saw the condition of the car.

That's not the point. The point is that when the guy was selling the car, he overheard a guy say a word among them. The trunk of the car is big enough to hold more than a dozen cash boxes.

He didn't care at first, but it was only after the gang investigated him that he remembered this and provided this clue.

This guy described the looks of the people who bought the car.

At the time of the robbery that day, these people were all masked, and no one knew what they looked like.

After continuous investigation, more and more clues emerged.

In the end, a thief provided a clue. At a junkyard, he went to sell the stolen items. He seemed to have seen the person Bill's gang was looking for. On the same day, Lanster sent a team to investigate. After a long time, it was confirmed that the number of This guy was in the junkyard, and there were traces of the black car at the junkyard.

If you are looking for someone,

The gang is definitely ten thousand times stronger than the police.

Lanster looked at Hardy and asked, What are you going to do next, grab them now?

Hardy smiled.

Don't worry, let our people keep an eye on the robbers, and don't do anything as long as they don't escape.

Tomorrow, you go talk to Bank of America, maybe they can be our first customer.

Then talk to Chief Ed. I heard that the mayor has given him a strict order. If he doesn't solve the case within half a month, he will get out. I think Hardy is safe and can become a partner of the police department.

There are a lot of places where this thing can work, and we need to make the most of it.

The two then chatted about the details.
