Chapter 1397: Cheated From 5 Million
1397
The director sat behind his desk, with one hand on his waist to ensure that he could pull out the pistol on his waist as soon as possible.
Of course, the director doesn't think what Xu Taiping will do to him. Now that the military coup has begun, it won't be long before Ailanke will be taken down by the Prime Minister. By then, the entire country will change its dynasty, and he will also become the director of the National Police Agency. Commander, if Xu Taiping dares to do anything to him, he will only die.
Xu Taiping pulled up a chair and sat opposite the director.
Rini stood aside, not daring to sit down, covered in sweat. He really couldn't find the reason why Xu Taiping was so calm. Could he just ask the director directly to ask for someone?
It turns out that Rini was right.
"I came to you to ask for someone." Xu Taiping said.
"Oh?" The director raised his eyebrows and said, "Who do you want?"
"Luo Juan."
With a click, the director pulled out the gun from his waist, pointed it at Xu Taiping, and then opened his mouth to call his subordinates in.
"I'll pay for it!" Xu Taiping said.
Xu Taiping's words finally made no sound come out of the director's open mouth.
"Spend money?" The director pointed his gun at Xu Taiping and asked with a playful expression, "How much can you give me?"
"How much are you willing to pay?" Xu Taiping asked.
"As you know, Luo Juan is suspected of leaking state secrets, which is a very serious crime," the director said.
"Needless to say these useless things, in this world, everything has a price. I don't care what national secrets Luo Juan has leaked, I just want to know now, how much money I give you, can you let Luo Juan go? Juan come with me?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Luo Juan, who are you that makes you willing to spend money for her? Moreover, Luo Juan is not from your Chinese. Ah, I understand. Is this Luo Juan your spy?" the director asked.
"Director, I'm not saying this, but you talk a lot of nonsense," Xu Taiping said.
Xu Taiping's words made Rini break out in cold sweat. As a person who comes to ask for help, you dare to talk nonsense about others. Does this mean you don't want to live anymore?
To Rini's surprise, the director did not get angry. He smiled faintly, then opened his five fingers in front of Xu Taiping and said, "Five million dollars, transfer it to my overseas bearer account." , I will let Luo Juan go."
"Okay!" Xu Taiping nodded without any hesitation, "Director, please give me a phone. I'm talking about a phone that can make outbound calls. The external communications of the entire Ailanke should be cut off now, right?"
"It seems that you are not an ordinary person, you even know this." The director said, took out a satellite phone from the drawer and handed it to Xu Taiping, and said, "My account number is xxx, ask your people to call me Money, hand it over with one hand and give it to others with the other hand.”
"Okay!" Xu Taiping nodded, then took the satellite phone given by the director and called Chen Yitong.
For Xu Taiping now, the only person he dares to contact is Chen Yitong. As for the others, Xu Taiping dare not contact because he is afraid of exposing himself.
Xu Taiping quickly got through Chen Yitong's phone number, and then Xu Taiping asked Chen Yitong to transfer five million US dollars to the account given by the director.
Chen Yitong on the other end of the phone didn't ask any questions and immediately did as Xu Taiping said.
Xu Taiping handed the satellite phone back to the director, and then said, "It should be available soon."
"I'll wait." The director grinned.
Standing next to Xu Taiping, Rini was sweating profusely. He didn't think that a man like Xu Taiping, who had lost his memory after falling into the sea, could come up with five million US dollars. He felt that Xu Taiping was playing with fire. He was probably buying time. However, there is no point in buying time now, and it will only anger the director.
At this moment, the director's cell phone suddenly rang.
The director picked up the phone and took a look, then smiled and said, "The five million has really arrived, haha, let's go, I will take you to find Luo Juan!"
After saying that, the director put away his gun and walked out of the office.
Xu Taiping stood up and followed the director outside.
Rini looked at the director and Xu Taiping in shock.
Could it be that Xu Liu really gave the director five million US dollars?
Five million dollars! That's a huge sum of money. For a backward country like Xinia, five million US dollars is almost the GDP of a city for a year!
Rini can only earn a few thousand US dollars once when he goes to sea. In a year, he only earns 30,000 to 50,000 US dollars. This is already considered very rich. To earn 5 million US dollars, it will take a hundred years, no. Thinking that Xu Liu was given to him right away, how rich was Xu Liu?
The director took Xu Taiping to the outside of the interrogation room where Luo Juan was detained, and then opened the door of the interrogation room and said, "Due to routine matters, I conducted some interrogations on Luo Juan. I hope you don't mind."
"I understand!" Xu Taiping nodded and then walked into the interrogation room.
In the interrogation room, Luo Juan was leaned against the iron fence.
Hearing the movement at the door, Luo Juan looked up and looked at the door. At this sight, Luo Juan was stunned.
"Why are you here?!" Luo Juan asked in surprise.
"We are here to rescue you." Xu Taiping said, walking up to Luo Juan.
"Director, can you open these handcuffs?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Since you have such a good relationship and are willing to spend five million to save her, then you can all stay here." The director said with a smile.
"What do you mean?" Xu Taiping asked with a frown.
"For a person who leaked national secrets, do you think five million can let her go? You are too naive, Chinese." The director said, sneered, closed the door directly, and locked it from the outside.
"You were cheated!" Rini said excitedly.
A sneer appeared on Xu Taiping's lips and he said, "People's greed can easily make people lose their minds. He can easily exchange Luo Juan for five million, so he will naturally want more. I have known this for a long time."
"Then you give him the money, are you stupid?" Rini asked.
"At least now, we know that Luo Juan is here, and at the same time, the three of us are together. This is good news." Xu Taiping said.
"What will happen if the three of us are together? This is a police station and there are police outside. Can we fly away from here?" Rini asked.
"There's no need to fly away, just give me some time." Xu Taiping said. In his opinion, as long as he is given two to three days, he will have to leave the police station after his body has fully recovered. That really couldn't be simpler.
The reason why he came to the police station in such a hurry and gave the director five million was to make sure that Luo Juan was in the police station and to get close to Luo Juan. As long as he could get to Luo Juan's side, he would be sure to keep her. Luo Juan's life, of course, was not because he could fight or kill now, but mainly because he had money.
As long as the director believes that he is a chicken that can lay golden eggs, then he, Luo Juan, and Lini will be safe.
"The Chinese people inside, I will give you a choice. If you continue to transfer 20 million US dollars into my account, I will let you go. Otherwise, you will stay in the interrogation room. You don't have much time. When the military coup is over, I will hand you over to my superiors, and by then, you will be prepared to stay in prison for the rest of your life." said the director outside the door.
"Director, as a national worker, keeping your promises is the most basic thing. I didn't expect you to be such a person." Xu Taiping said.
"If I really keep my promise, I won't follow my boss in the coup, right?" the director said with a smile.
"I don't have that much money, I need time to raise money." Xu Taiping said.
"Time? Sorry, you don't have much time." The director said.
"Give me at least three days!" Xu Taiping said, "Give me three days, I will call my friends and ask them to raise money. In order to show my sincerity, once they draw a sum of money, I will Let them call you, 20 million, in batches, Director, as long as you promise that we can leave here in three days."
"Hahahaha, yes, then I will give you three days!" the director said, "You will stay in this interrogation room for three days. If the $20 million is received in advance within three days, I will release you in advance." Walk."
"Director, this is the last time. I hope you can keep your promise. Otherwise, my friends will definitely help me get revenge. You have to believe that they can spend tens of millions of dollars to rescue me, and they can also spend thousands." Ten thousand dollars to buy your life." Xu Taiping said.
The director outside the door seemed to be frightened and did not speak for a long time.
"Director, is this okay?" Xu Taiping asked.
"As you wish." The director said, "If the 20 million is really received, I will let the three of you leave, I promise."
"Okay Director, but Director, let me give you a friendly reminder. You'd better keep the news that the three of us were arrested by you a secret. Otherwise, if others know that the three of us can be exchanged for tens of millions of dollars, then I'm sure someone will come to rob us from you. You are the chief of the police and have people under you, but for those generals, it seems that the people under you are not enough." Xu Taiping said.
"You are all my babies. I will not let others take you away. Don't worry. I will have someone come to give you food later. At the same time, you have to call your friends. Let him transfer money into my account. I only want money, not your lives, so as long as you pay me obediently, I can give you good food and drink," the director said.
"Okay!" Xu Taiping said, "Just call me later!"
"Okay, let's talk later!" After the director finished speaking, he turned and left.
At this time, the entire Ailank was still filled with gunfire. The rebels, who were originally planning to carry out a surprise attack at night, moved the military coup to noon because of Luo Juan. Although they were strong, the government at this time The army was still in the midst of daily activities, so the rebels encountered very stubborn resistance. The two sides entered into street fighting, and the entire city was completely reduced to a battlefield.
