Chereads / Criminal Actor: SWAT Team in Confusion. / Chapter 69 - Out of the Cage

Chapter 69 - Out of the Cage

A few days ago, a bank in Rio, Brazil was robbed on a large scale. According to local police estimates, at least 300 robbers entered the bank through an underground passage and took away a large amount of property.

The exact amount of money involved in the robbery cannot be determined at the moment because the property was stored in a private safe. According to the analysis of legal experts, if the amount of money involved is unknown, it is likely to reduce the final conviction of the robbers.

The head of the Rio de Janeiro Police Department held a press conference this morning to apologise to the community.

[He claimed that it took the police nearly an hour to surround the bank, not because of lack of training, but because of the heavy traffic jams at the time. ...]

[The Taliban terrorist organisation has claimed responsibility for this incident ...]

[Reporters have learnt from their investigations that the robbers' plan of action came from a Chinese film called "The Heist of the Century". The film was recently released, starring Li Si, and also featuring Liu Jinsheng ...].

Ah Fai stared at the TV, the sandwich in his hand slipped and the chicken fillet inside fell to the ground.

He was staring at the TV, and the sandwich in his hand slipped, dropping the chicken fillet on the floor.

He picked up the remote control to change the channel and found that it was the news channel.

The Heist of the Century.

Ah Fai remembers this film, he just went to see it with his girlfriend last week. On the same night, she broke up with him, saying that if he took her to see such a bad film, Fai must not be in love with her anymore.

Fai is convinced that it was the film that broke them up.

So he went online and posted countless bad reviews, copying and pasting them: the story is so fake, no one really thought it was good, did they?

The newscaster is still talking.

He laid out a flat map detailing how the robbers broke into the bank. Some of them were drawn on the ground, while others sneaked in through the tunnels.

To make it even more intuitive, they showed a short video simulation of the scenario.

On the screen, several small, dark figures entered the sewer. They wore insulated mackintoshes and dodged the alarms. ...

Ah Fai's mouth dropped open and the more he watched, the more familiar he looked.

Isn't this the plot of the film?

Even the silhouettes of the characters are exactly the same... They're just showing the film clip of "Heist of the Century", aren't they? Don't think I don't recognise the characters just because they are blacked out.

Ah Fai stared at the TV and suddenly felt an impulse.

He quickly put on his clothes and went downstairs, and while waiting for the bus, he opened the booking software.

The software showed that the film was very popular, and luckily, there were still the last two seats left.

Ah Fai rushed to buy the tickets.

Ten minutes later, at the entrance of the cinema.

Fai hesitated for a long time, but finally made up his mind and dialled the number that he couldn't delete no matter what.

Beep... beep...

There was no answer, the receiver was busy.

Fai looked down in disappointment, but just then, he heard a familiar voice.

"Dear ..."

Ah Fai turned around in surprise, almost shedding tears.

Then he saw his ex-girlfriend holding another man's arm. The two of them didn't even see Ah Fai, they were talking and laughing as they passed in front of him.

"Darling, this film is so good!

"Yes, come on, give me a kiss."

Ah Fai was frozen in place and finally broke down in tears.

Damn it! I didn't break up because the film was not good!

...

Old Wolf, a film critic, was also watching the news.

A few minutes later, he switched off the TV with a chirp, then opened his laptop and typed down a line.

The Heist of the Century - a ridiculous crime film, but interesting!

He was biting the tip of his pen, thinking of the first sentence of this review, when his mobile phone rang.

Old Wolf picked up the phone and saw that the caller ID was his editor.

As soon as he picked up the phone, the editor couldn't wait to start, "The box office of 'The Great Heist of the Century' is going to exceed 100 million!

After a brief chat with the editor, Old Wolf put down the phone, pondered for a long time, and changed the title to:

"Century Heist - Box Office Champion, Luck or Real Talent".

He buried his head and started writing, and just after the first paragraph, the phone rang again. This time it was a film critic friend of his.

The first thing he said was:

"The Great Robbery of the Century has been nominated for a Golden Horse Award!"

When Old Wolf put down his mobile phone, his hand shook a little, almost knocking over his glass of water.

After thinking it over, he deleted the title once again and wrote the following line:

[Dark Horse of the Year! The brilliant "Heist of the Century" is sweeping the Chinese film industry.

...

Meanwhile, at Li Si's house.

The living room was full of people, and it was as if these people were orphans without a home of their own, coming to the Li Si' house for gatherings every three days.

The TV is on, the news is playing, and the two hosts are arguing about whether or not the "Century Heist" is a crime.

The two hosts were arguing about whether the "Century Heist" was illegal.

"Look, look, look!" He tugged on Li Si's sleeve, and Li Si was shaken by him.

As a director, Tian realised he had a chance.

The other actors high-fived each other, gave little cheers, and stomped their feet as if victory was in sight.

There's no way not to be happy.

Their film has been reproduced in real life by a bunch of foreigners!

The film is now on the top of Twitter's "Heist" list, and cinemas have increased the number of screenings on their own initiative.

The box office is about to explode, so this is going to be a big slap in the face to the critics.

Director Tian stood up and paced back and forth in the room anxiously, "Contact the advertisers as soon as possible! The publicity work must also be arranged, Xiao Zhao, you quickly ...".

He just wanted to call his assistant in, but he found that everyone was cheering, except for Li Si, who had a grave expression on his face.

He didn't even eat the cone in his hand.

"Brother Li, are you not happy?" Director Tian couldn't figure out why Li Si had to make a sour face when it was obviously a great event.

Li Si was blue in the face, did not say anything, and showed his mobile phone to Tian Guan.

The screen is full of WeChat alerts.

What's wrong with you again? Why do you want me to talk to you?

[Team Song: Let's talk on the phone later, this is a very complicated matter for you].

The Tennessee government has been trying to get rid of the problem for a long time, but it's not going to do it.

The reason he's not panicking right now is because on the staff list, the lead actor, screenwriter, assistant director, and back-up ... for "The Great Heist of the Century" are all Li Si.

So even if something goes wrong, we have to arrest Li Si first, and it has nothing to do with him and Liu Jinsheng.

"The first thing you need to do is to think of the good side of the story, and if you go on a [Today's Story], you'll be famous." Tian Guan consoled him.

Li Si stares angrily at him, "What kind of dialogue is this?

Liu Jinsheng came over, the old handsome man can always be relied on at critical moments, and gave Li Si the idea: "Let's turn ourselves in first, and try to get a reduced sentence.

Li Si stood up and walked towards the door.

This place is impossible to stay in.

He wanted to go to the corridor to catch a breeze, but found Feng Su waiting for him there.

Susu's face was tense.

"I'm not going to let you go to jail," she said in a small but firm voice. she said in a small but firm voice.

Li Si was touched. It was Su Su who spoke with such warmth.

He stood close to Fung Soo, and they leaned shoulder to shoulder for a long time without speaking. As Li Si was enjoying this moment, his mobile phone suddenly vibrated.

It was the Qin team.

I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do this, but I'm going to be able to do it, and I'm going to be able to do it. The company's website has been updated with the latest information on the latest developments in the industry.

"Hiss...hiss..."

I don't know why, but no one spoke on the other end of the phone.

There was only a small, hard gasp.

An obvious glissando. Indicates tracheal injury, emergency treatment only.

Sudden interruptions in breathing from time to time. There must be blood in the lungs, but it's not clear whether he was stabbed or shot.

Nasal sounds are audible. Concussion? Intracranial haemorrhage? Anyway, there's something wrong with his head too.

"Li ... help ... help ... help ..." someone's voice was hoarse.

Li Si's eyes suddenly became fierce.
