The blue van slowly stopped at the entrance of the alley, and Chen Ke, Lucina, Hall, and Priskin got out of the vehicle.
"Good luck to you all." The van driver gave a thumbs-up through the window and then hastily drove away.
The four stood at the entrance of the alley looking towards the bank. It was noon, and not many customers were conducting business in the main hall of the bank. The office area at the back was practically empty, with only a few employees working behind the counters.
"Chen Ke, you go in first to check out the situation. Count how many people are inside," Lucina said.
"No problem, wait for my signal." Chen Ke made an OK gesture.
"Everything's in the blue pickup, you remember the last numbers of the license plate, right?" Hall asked Priskin.
"2217," Priskin nodded.
