-I see, she answered me, but don't worry, as long as I'm with you I'll be fine
- You're right - I told her - I will protect you despite ...
I could not continue to say anything to her, because in the police tent, we heard that the police had planned the first attack on the bank.
- Prepare the agents, we will enter the bank with everything - Colonel Tamayo said
- Okay - Suarez and Angel answered
I then said to Emily:
- Emily, it's time. The police have planned the attack on the bank. Ask the governor for the access code.
Then Emily said to the governor:
- Mr. Governor - Emily said to the governor - I need you to tell me what the access code is to get "the red boxes" inside the vault.
- You will excuse me - said the governor - but I cannot give it to you.
- And what if the governor refuses to give us the access code - I asked my brother some time ago because the governor had principles
- Well, my little brother - he told me, - in case he refuses, the governor will have to choose one of two: Either his life, or his principles.
Meanwhile, I was communicating with the Colonel, we made our first contact:
- Hello, Colonel, this is The Professor.
- I know that, Professor - the Colonel replied, "you shouldn't be doing this, you must have been on your paradisiacal vacation with his little friend, whose name is Lucia."
- I know, but are you Colonel Prieto who is in command or is Colonel Tamayo now?
- I am, Professor - Tamayo replied
- Oh, congratulations Colonel Tamayo - I said
- You took one of ours - Tamayo replied - to the ex-inspector Lucía
- Here I am Colonel - Lucia answered - Angel, I suppose you will be listening too
In case they had doubts, Angel was Lucia's best friend and the person with whom she got along best in the previous robbery, when she was still part of the police side.
- How do you feel? - Angel asked Lucia
- Well, pretty good, and you? - Lucia asked him
- Same - Angel replied
- I'm glad - Lucia said
- What do you do with your life? - Angel said to Lucia - You're throwing your life away
- Look, this is now my life - Lucia answered - and you know what? Which is a thousand times better than the previous one.
- Do you think you are living a movie? - Angel said - Listen to me well Lucia. Movies end too, and sometimes not with a happy ending. You know I'm going to chase you right?
- Well, but that's not new - said Lucia - you've always pursued me since the previous robbery.
- I'm sorry to interrupt - I said - Colonel, are you still there? Listen to me, I'm going to call you in an hour and I'm anticipating that by then, I'll have released five hostages. We are going to do things right this time.
- In an hour I will be smoking a cigar to your health in the governor's office - said the colonel
- Colonel, I'm recording the conversation - I told him - it seems that you don't care about the lives of those hostages
- Well, since you are recording the conversation, I am going to give you some advice, so you don't forget - he told me - take your mask, the Browning machine gun and get ready, because the sky is going to open over your head.
And he hung up on me.
Meanwhile inside the bank, 48 meters below the ground, Mike told the governor:
- Fuck me governor, the access code - Mike said
The governor refused again and this time he was hit in the face by William, who was in front of him asking for the access code.
- Brave asshole - William told him, and hit the governor with his head which caused him to crash into a metal tube and become unconscious.
- God! - Emily said
- William ...- Diego said - William, what have you done?
William froze from what he had done.
- For the love of God, someone tell me what's going on!
Emily approached the governor to help him:
- Governor, Don Mario - she said, trying to make him react - Don Mario, Don Mario. Oh, this can't be.
- Emily, what happened? - Diego asked
- He has lost consciousness - he replied
- Oh my God! - yelled Diego
- One hundred and thirty beats, this guy is going to have a heart attack - Emily said - Michael, give me the medicine cabinet and the staples. You have to close the wound. William, plug his wound.
- Yes, yes - said William and obeyed immediately
- Quick William! - Diego said
-And what if, for whatever reason, the governor definitely refuses to give us the access code? - I asked my brother some time ago
- Haha, there are always risks - said my brother - Brother please, what would life be like without a little risk? Brother is what gives you the excitement. And if something fails, we will always have the C-4.
Emily, William, and Michael were still trying to save the governor, while Mike put on his diving suit, entered the connection between the casting room and the vault, and had to install the C-4 in the back of the vault to take out the red boxes.
Then he programmed it so that 30 seconds later, the C-4 would detonate.
He swam quickly to the entrance without leaving the vault. And all he heard was an explosion and, seconds later, a lot of water came out of the vault. So, Mike swam back to where he installed the C-4 and he could see that the red boxes could now be removed.
- And what do those boxes contain? - I asked my brother long ago
- Oh, my little brother - said my brother - those "red boxes" contain nothing more and nothing less than the darkest and dirtiest secrets of the state.
