Chapter 23 Operation Began
Richard and Neil return.
The two went to scout the Spaniard's underground boxing ring.
Neil reported: "There are seven to eight matches in the underground boxing ring a night. The cash is estimated to be around 30,000 to 40,000$, and there are six security guards with guns."
30,000 to 40,000 $, Hardy felt, wasn't enough.
Not worth startling the Spanish over such small amount. As they were talking, Leo and Kerry came back.
The two of them went to the Spanish loan shark company. As soon as they entered the room, Leo said excitedly,, "Boss, we made a big discovery in the loan shark company."
Leo and Kerry found the Spanish loan shark company and made up a lie, claiming that the two were in business and were planning to open a shoe factory in Los Angeles. They did not have enough funds and wanted to borrow an emergency loan.
Kerry used to work in a shoe factory and was familiar with its affairs.
The other party asked how much money they needed, and Kerry said he was prepared to borrow $15,000.
"What do you have now, what are you going to use the borrowed money for, and how are you going to repay it?" asked the loan company staff.
Kerry said that they had rented a factory and spent 20,000 US dollars on machinery and some raw materials. Now the main problem is that the raw materials are insufficient. They have received an order and can make money immediately as soon as the order is completed.
There is a factory. There are orders, and repayment is guaranteed.
Such loans are definitely good business for loan shark companies.
The person from the borrowing company said that the loan required a mortgage and that they would send someone to the factory to have a look. Kerry said that it was no problem. It was all fake anyway.
The two sides began to discuss details, time passed by, and during the negotiation, people from the loan shark company came in and out, and Leo kept observing carefully.
Some people went in carrying boxes, and the content of those people's chats involved the casino, which seemed to be the casino's funds.
Some people walked over and talked about the company's settlement of accounts. He guessed that it was income from other businesses, such as bars, nightclubs, drugs, and the like.
Leo looked at Hardy and said, "Boss, I guess the Spanish loan shark company is also their financial company. All the accounts will be reviewed there. If so, there should be a lot of money there."
Hardy thought about the Austrian gang. The loan shark companies and finance companies seem to be together, and the Spaniard should be similar.
As for how much money is inside, it's hard to tell now.
"Boss, who do you think we should attack?" Henry asked.
Several men looked at Hardy to see how he would make a decision. Hardy weighed it in his mind and made a decision.
"Casino!"
"Isn't there a blackjack competition the day after tomorrow? Let's start on that day. I will assign the task now."
Everyone was in high spirits and watched Hardy's arrangements carefully.
"Sean and Ryder will be driving during the operation. You are most familiar with the streets of Los Angeles."
Sean and Ryder nodded immediately.
"Steal two cars and use them during the operation. We will put our own cars in the middle of the road. If we get chased, we can easily change cars at any time to avoid any trouble. Leo and Kerry are responsible for getting the cars."
"No problem, boss."
Leo used to be a car repairman, and stealing cars was a trivial matter.
"Richard is responsible for checking the firearms. Neil is responsible for preparing grenades and explosives to deal with possible dangers. Henry and Matthew, you are responsible for preparing hoods and backpacks."
Several guys responded in unison.
The next day.
All is calm, everyone else went to do what Hardy ordered. Hardy and Sean Ryder went to deliver the goods. After delivering goods to various bars, they came to Bunny Nightclub in the evening.
It's still lively here, loud singing and dancing, Marissa moved among the drinkers, exuding endless charm.
Seeing Hardy in the blink of an eye, Marissa fixed her gaze, said a few words to the man next to her, walked to the bar and ordered two cocktails, then walked up to Hardy with a graceful gait.
A glass of wine was placed in front of Hardy.
"Hardy, I haven't seen you in so many days. Are you busy recently?" Marissa's tone was slightly resentful.
Since that day when the hero saved the beauty, Hardy sent Marissa back, and after the two had in depth communication, Hardy became busy and never saw Marissa again.
"It's true that I'm a little busy." Hardy picked up the wine and took a sip.
"Are you still busy tonight?"
Marissa looked at Hardy seductively.
"It's okay today."
Half an hour later, Marissa left the nightclub early and walked out of the door. There was already a car parked at the door on the street, and it was Hardy who was driving.
They went to Marissa's house again.
The house was very warm. and Marissa came over with a glass of wine, half covered by her lace suspender skirt.
...
It didn't take long for their intensive exercise to start.
After a long time, the two of them stopped moving.
The two hugged each other and chatted in the room.
"Marissa, It's best not to go to nightclubs during this period. There has been a lot of trouble between other gangs and Austrian gangs recently. No one knows what will happen." Hardy stroked Marissa's wet hair..
"Is it so serious?" Marissa asked, lying on Hardy solid chest muscles and looking at him.
"It's very serious, and it will get worse in the future. Although no one will target you, I am afraid you may get injured accidentally in the random shooting shooting" Hardy said.
Marissa blinked and thought about it.
"Actually, I have also saved a sum of money, which will be enough for a while. I will listen to you. During this time, I happened to find a teacher to learn acting and singing. I will use a few this months to improve myself. After finishing my studies, I will go to Hollywood, big movies companies and try to see if i can find a role," Marissa said.
"Do you like acting in movies that much?" Hardy asked.
"That's my dream. Everyone has a dream, right?" Marissa said softly.
Sunlight shines through the window. the room was bright.
Marissa slept for a long time, the woman took the initiative to start a war before dawn, and Hardy did mind entertaining her.
She was really tired, after patting the bulge on the quilt, a woman soft moan sounded.
Hardy got up and went back to downtown.
Every thing was ready, the table was covered with guns. pistols, Chicago typewriters, and even a heavy machine gun.
Black hoods, backpacks Neil arranged the grenade and explosives.
The action is tonight, whether in his past life or this life, Hardy understands one thing.
Whatever you do, do it with utmost care.
Plan, deploy, and make all preparations in advance so that you can act with ease.
...
As night fell.
"Sean, Ryder, you two are responsible for driving the car. The others get their equipment." Hardy ordered.
Everyone took action immediately.
pistol. Chicago typewriter, Headgear.
"Buzz~!"
Four cars drove out of the station and drove for a while. Two of their own cars were parked at the predetermined location, and they drove the two stolen cars to the vicinity of the Spanish Casino Club.
It's about seven o'clock in the evening.The lights were turned on.
The light shining on the road and fountain of the clubhouse reflects the feeling of a classical palace.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Many cars came one after another, most of them were high end cars.
The men got out of the cars in suits and leather shoes, and the women wore beautiful evening dresses, showing their perfect figures.
These people walked into the clubhouse, talking and laughing.
There is a blackjack game tonight, more people came than usual.
Time passed by minute by minute, Hardy's team cars parked quietly on the roadside, two kilometers away from the club. No one spoke or smoked, just like in the silent time before the battle.
For them, today was indeed a big battle.
"Boss, it's 11 o'clock."
Henry, who was sitting next to Hardy, said.
"It's time; let's go."
The two cars started and drove quickly towards the club.
