Chapter 62: Impersonating Japanese Army to Force Japanese Bank Manager to Open Vault
Lei Tao quietly approached the vault door. Just as he was about to act, he keenly sensed something unusual. He turned abruptly and saw a middle-aged man in a fine suit, a bow tie, and a Rendan mustache, holding a Nambu pistol and attempting to attack him. Lei Tao reacted quickly, unhesitatingly grabbing his semi-automatic drum crossbow. With a whoosh, the crossbow bolt shot out like lightning, accurately hitting the man's arm holding the gun. The man felt pain and dropped the pistol with a clang. Lei Tao knew this man must be the manager of the 82nd Bank's Shanghai branch in Huaxia...
So he shouted in pure Tokyo Japanese: "Don't move! I only want money, not killing people. Besides, if the navy takes all the wealth, our army won't get a single drop... Take out the key to the vault door and open the vault. Since you are the bank manager of the Empire of Japan, I will spare your life!"
The bank manager clutched his injured arm, a flicker of fear and hesitation in his eyes. He trembled and said, "You...you're from the Army? Do you know what you're doing? This is a serious violation of discipline!"
Lei Tao sneered, "Violation of discipline? Humph, these guys in the Navy always put us in the Army's place. They want to take all this wealth for themselves? No way! I want a piece of the pie today. You'd better cooperate, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."
The bank manager frowned, as if pondering a strategy. "Do you think you can get away with this? If this vault situation gets exposed, none of us will be in good shape."
Lei Tao took a step forward, a hint of ferocity in his eyes: "That's better than me getting nothing now. Stop talking nonsense and open the vault!" He shook the crossbow in his hand as a threat.
The bank manager, helpless, took the key from his pocket and walked towards the first door of the vault. As he opened the door, he suddenly said, "Do you think you can take all this wealth and get away with it? There are Imperial Japanese Army guards everywhere. If you are discovered, we will all be in trouble."
Lei Tao was shocked, but he remained calm on the surface: "Huh, guard? That's none of your business. You'd better not play any tricks, otherwise I will kill you now."
After the first door opened, Lei Tao escorted the bank manager into the second door of the vault. He watched the manager warily while thinking about how to deal with any security issues that might arise. Suddenly, he noticed the bank manager's eyes glanced towards a corner, and Lei Tao realized that there might be a trap or other danger there.
He suddenly pulled the bank manager in front of him and put the dagger to his neck. "Are you trying to trigger some mechanism? Don't think I can't see it."
The bank manager's face turned pale: "No...no, I was just careless."
Lei Tao sneered: "That's better. Now, go find all the dangerous devices that may be here and disable them. If there is any mistake, I will show no mercy."
Under Lei Tao's coercion, the bank manager had no choice but to do what he asked. During this process, Lei Tao remained highly vigilant, preventing the manager from making any counterattacks. In the end, they successfully handled the potential danger, while the bank manager trembled in fear, not daring to think of any resistance.
The bank manager had no choice but to take the key from his pocket and walked towards the vault door. Just as he inserted the key into the lock and turned the secret wheel, and the door just opened a crack after a "ding" sound, he suddenly turned around, pulled out a dagger from his waist with his other uninjured hand, and rushed towards Lei Tao. Lei Tao had been prepared and dodged to the side, easily avoiding the sudden attack. The bank manager rushed forward due to excessive force. Lei Tao took the opportunity to stretch out his foot and tripped him. The bank manager fell to the ground, and before he could get up, Lei Tao had already pounced on him and twisted his arm behind his back, making him unable to move.
The bank manager struggled, still shouting, "I won't let you succeed!" Lei Tao ignored his shouting and increased the strength of his hands, causing the bank manager to scream in pain. Lei Tao would not give him another chance to resist, and hit him hard on the back of the head with the handle of the knife, causing the bank manager to faint.
Lei Tao stood up, patted his clothes, and looked at the open vault door. The gold and silver treasures inside exuded an alluring light. He took a deep breath and walked into the vault carefully, while being alert to other possible dangers around him.
Lei Tao entered the vault and was stunned by the sight. Inside, piles of gold bricks gleamed in the dim light, and alongside them lay neatly stacked millions of US dollars and over a million British pounds. The intricate patterns on the coins hinted at the allure of wealth. There were also boxes of silver coins and even more boxes of gold and silver jewelry. These treasures had been looted from the civilian population by the Japanese army, and now they lay before him.
Lei Tao knew the Japanese army had little time to react, so he sprang into action. A flicker of determination flashed in his eyes, and he waved his hands, unleashing the power of the Bagua Gyro Dimension. With a flash of light, the gold bars, US dollars, British pounds, silver coins, and gold and silver jewelry, all drawn by invisible hands, flew towards the Bagua Gyro Dimension, leaving nothing behind. Soon, the vault, once overflowing with treasure, was completely emptied.
After storing them, Lei Tao took out a trigger bomb from his backpack and carefully installed it on the vault door. He expertly set the trigger mechanism, ensuring that the bomb would explode as soon as the Japanese approached. After doing all this, Lei Tao quickly left the vault without stopping and ran outside.
