Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 354 Money Heist

Chapter 354 Money Heist


The bank was filled with chaos as soon as the robbers broke in. The guards at the entrance were knocked out by their advanced weapons, while the guards inside the bank prioritized everyone"s safety before taking action.


"Everyone! Get on the floor and lock your hands behind your back!" one of the robbers yelled.


There were a total of 17 armed robbers inside the bank, and three were outside. They wore an advanced type of suit covering their entire body, including their face.


"If I see anyone move, I will shoot everyone!"


One of the lady staff working in the bank rushed under the counter to press the alarm b.u.t.ton, but it didn"t go off even after pressing it a couple of times.


"Huh?"


One of the guards was with the robbers, and he had disabled all the security systems of the bank and activated the emergency lockdown.


The robbers had their van equipped with even more advanced equipment parked outside the bank. Using that equipment, they hacked into the bank"s firmware and disabled the cameras. They also jammed all the incoming and outgoing connections of the bank and used yet another advanced tool to communicate with each other.


Obviously, it was a well-planned money heist, but they happened to rob the bank when Rudy was there.


"What the f.u.c.k?!" Rudy yelled inwardly.


Rudy, Maria, and everyone present in the bank did as the robbers ordered them to do.


"We have planted bombs everywhere in this bank. So if some smarta.s.s tried to pull any trick, every one of you would die!"


"You will die with us too, then!" Maria yelled.


"Oi! Shut up, you little mafia! Let them announce their plan so I can plan my next moves! Don"t interrupt them!" Rudy sighed inwardly.


"Hah?!" The robber turned to Maria and said, "Why would we die with the bomb explosion? We will, of course, leave the building first before setting them off."


"Hey, you!" One of the robbers pointed his gun at the cashier and said, "Bring out all the money you have here."


Then, he snapped and pointed his finger in the direction of the vaults.


"Two of you, go there and start collecting the money. The other two, go where the gold is stored so we will at least have the gold, even if they devalue the stolen notes like the last time."


"After a brief pause, he said, "Rest of you spread out and keep your eyes on everyone. If they move even a finger, shoot them down!


"This guy seems like a leader. But why did this have to happen today? Even if they wanted to rob today, they could have come in the morning or at noon. Why when I was here?


If I indeed have super luck as Maria claims, then I must also have a super bad luck that attracts all the calamities."


Rudy scanned the bank using his see-through ability and raised his brow as though he was impressed.


"They aren"t lying about the bombs. Crazy motherf.u.c.kers! And there are 17 of them here. One of the guards also seemed to be with them, but he was still playing a victim. Too bad I heard his thoughts.


Now, what is their escape route? The best way to find that out is to ask them."


Rudy changed the expression of his face from nonchalant to scared and asked, "Do you think you can get away with this? The cops will definitely hunt you down when you escape from here."


"Hah?!" The leader of the robbers scoffed out loud and said, "No, they won"t. Do you know why? Because they are weak. They don"t have tools like us. Their cars are slow, and their technology is far too behind to even track us.


We have our van parked outside, and my men have already done what they had to do. The cops won"t ever know there was a robbery here, and when they do, it would be too late to do anything!"


"I see. There is a van, and it must also be equipped with advanced technology."


Rudy used electrokinesis and noticed that they had jammed every incoming and outgoing signal from the bank.


"Hmm. Does that mean the cameras are also disabled and not recording anything? I don"t sense any signals coming from the cameras, but what if the robbers are watching everything from the van?


If I use my powers, even without being noticed, everything would be captured in the camera. I want to avoid that for any possible and unnecessary trouble in the future."


"Pst! Pst!" Maria called out to Rudy.


"What?" Rudy asked in a whisper.


"Can you fight?"


"What do you plan to do?"


"I can easily take care of five guys at once, but not all of them. If you can fight, then I want you to help me fight the others. But if you can"t fight, or are afraid of getting shot, then you can distract them while I take them out one by one."


"Yeah, that"s not going to work. This is not a movie or a video game. And they have advanced weapons. Did you not see how they knocked out the security guards at the entrance using some sonic wave guns."


"But we can"t just wait and watch everything!" she whispered violently in frustration. "They are the robbers. They are the bad guys. Once they have looted this place, they will trigger the bombs and kill us all! So if we are going to die anyway, why not try to fight for our lives?!"


"Calm down, miss Mafia. You don"t have to risk your life like this. And if something happens to you and your father learns of your death, the underground will go into mayhem.


What do you think will happen after that? There will be a war, and your entire syndicate will be searching for these robbers all over the country, or maybe even the world. Countless innocents will die in that war, you know?


You are just being reckless in the heat of the moment without thinking of the consequences."


"Then what do we do?!"


"We don"t have to do anything."


Rudy had already a.n.a.lyzed the entire situation and had made dozens of plans. Now, it was time for him to act on them.
