The church and the police have a common goal, that is, Yan Xiaoyi!

In fact, their positions are different. The police hoped to capture Yan Xiaoyi alive and rescue the hostages. If the situation was not possible, it would be okay to kill Yan Xiaoyi. The church did not care about Yan Xiaoyi's life and death. They only hoped to snatch the coffin containing the vampire duke. Besides, the police's original intention was to not let the criminals get away with it. Therefore, if the stalemate was not over, the police would not mind being forced to attack. As long as the hostages were injured to minimize the casualties, the church would definitely not be willing to do this.

The matter was caused by the Duke of Vampire. Strictly speaking, this is a matter of the church. If civilians are injured or killed, there will definitely be people who complain about the church and violate their merciful doctrine. But the contradiction is that if Yan Xiaoyi is willing to negotiate, the sheriff will definitely be willing to accept it in order to protect the hostages, but the church will definitely not accept the negotiation, because Yan Xiaoyi went for the Duke of Vampire. No matter how the negotiation is negotiated, Yan Xiaoyi will never hand over the Duke of Vampire. So is the negotiation meaningful?

The sheriff and the church people were anxious at the bank entrance, mainly because he was not sure what Yan Xiaoyi wanted to do. He didn't have any requests for robbing people. At least he had to let the negotiating experts chat. At the moment, there was no way for everyone to do so. The sheriff had to ask someone to raise a cordon and dispatch people to stop the onlookers. Apart from that, he couldn't think of anything else he could do.

At this time, Yan Xiaoyi looked at the darkening sky and turned a wink with Zhong Lingxiu, stood up, walked to the door, and shot at the sky: "Hey, from there, send someone here, don't call a negotiating expert, I want to be able to manage the affairs, do you know what it means to manage the affairs? It's just that you can agree to the conditions, otherwise don't blame my bullet for being eyeless."

"I'll go!" The sheriff hesitated for a moment, then straightened his hat and said, "No rash action is allowed without my order."

When the sheriff walked to the front door of the bank, Yan Xiaoyi waved his gun and signaled him to stop and said, "Your surname?"

The sheriff said: "You can call me the sheriff directly."

Yan Xiaoyi nodded, and the other party told himself that he could be in charge, so he handed the sheriff a piece of paper and pen and said, "I said you remember, six parts steak, three parts 5 parts 5 parts 7 parts ripe, three parts 7 parts pasta, one part steak flavor, one part pizza flavor, five parts seafood, cheese, bacon, beef and vegetables flavor, two parts torched fish pie, one part chewy, one part chewy, one part chewy, one part chewy, three parts French cold soup, and creamy flavor, and finally gave me twenty salads, and the vegetables are casually matched with fruits. By the way, remember to add sweet beans to vegetables, yes, add two bottles of red wine bar, I will ask you for it."

The sheriff's note was sweating coldly. It was not that the robbers who asked for food had never seen it, but they usually ordered bread and canned food to fill their stomachs. I have never heard of someone robbing more than a hundred hostages and asking for so much food as if they were preparing to hold a banquet. And it was all messy, including Italian, British, and French. Where did they go in the middle of this?

After wiping cold sweat, the sheriff said unwillingly: "Apart from this, are there any other requirements? As long as the hostages can be safely safe, we can agree to anything, such as giving you a car so that you can leave safely."

Yan Xiaoyi thought for a while and said, "No car is needed, yes, can you ask for any other requirements?"

The sheriff nodded and said, "Please believe our police's willingness to have a peaceful solution."

Yan Xiaoyi said: "Can you find me a few more bathtubs to fill with hot water? It is the most comfortable to take a hot bath when you are tired."

Sheriff: "…"

"No?" Yan Xiaoyi waved his hand very generously and said, "If you don't, forget it, go back quickly and deliver the food within thirty minutes."

The sheriff smacked his lips, but in the end he didn't dare to continue speaking. He was afraid that he would be choked to death by Yan Xiaoyi, so he had to turn his head and leave.

"How is it?" When the sheriff came back, Margaret said anxiously: "What are the prisoners' requests? And have you seen the coffin in the bank?"

"I don't have time to look at the bank." The sheriff took out the note helplessly and said, "I'm just busy me remembering the menu."

Abram took the menu and looked at it, and said in surprise: "Are they treating the bank as a hotel? Are they planning to live in it for a long time and can't come out?"

The sheriff frowned and said, "The food is less than a dozen people eat, and it is not good for the strong attack."

Margaret said: "There is only one person who jails the car."

"Impossible!" the sheriff said decisively: "I have learned that after the robbers entered the bank, they took two batches of hostages into the counter behind, blocked their sight, and asked the hostages to change their clothes. However, are all hostages? It is certainly not all, their purpose is to conceal the real robbers through such means. Except for the bandit leader, there must be hostages among the robbers holding guns, but how to recognize them? They are all wearing the same clothes. Besides, are there any robbers disguised as hostages among the hostages? It is not certain, but from the perspective of food, there are at least twenty robbers, but they cannot be done accurately, because the other party may divide the food into some hostages, and there may also be more robbers who do not eat in order not to be exposed, or a few people will share a portion of food."

After saying that, the police sighed and said, "Those robbers are veterans. If they cannot distinguish between hostages and robbers, they must not attack them, otherwise they will cause very large casualties."

The church people did not agree with the force of attack, so naturally they didn't say much. The sheriff honestly prepared food, and then brought the lights to the bank. Yan Xiaoyi, in the bank, really ate and drank, and regarded the bank as a restaurant.

After eight o'clock in the evening, it was getting darker and the street had been blocked for five or six hours. The sheriff called the lights to aim at the bank and kept them bright. Yan Xiaoyi looked at the time and the sky, and then stood up slowly.

"Mr. Sheriff." Yan Xiaoyi shouted: "Now I make a request, I need the entire town to lose power, immediately, right away!"

"You can't agree to him." The two paladins immediately said in unison: "The power outage will be dark, and it will be difficult to intercept and pursue. They will easily escape. They must not let him take the vampire Duke away."

The sheriff nodded and shouted at Yan Xiaoyi: "This is impossible. I am not sure if the power outage in the whole town is not my final say. I have to ask my superiors and report it to the mayor. Then the whole town will notify you, which will take at least a few hours."

"Yes, it's really a little trouble." Yan Xiaoyi said: "Then please break off all the electricity in this street. Don't tell me you don't know how to do it. Just smash all the substation boxes on this street."

The sheriff wiped his sweat. The other party was a cruel person and had already thought of a countermeasure, so he had to say to the two paladins: "What do you think?"

The two paladins looked at each other and then shook their heads together, saying that they were fine to fight, but their experience in dealing with such things was obviously not as good as that of the sheriff.

The nun of the Holy Gun thought for a while and said, "Mr. Sheriff, I think I should agree to him. This is an opportunity. The other party obviously thought of a countermeasure and kept waiting for darkness, and then used the power outage to escape. However, as long as we enclose all the street intersections around the bank, even if the other party can leave the bank in the dark, it will not be possible to escape successfully."

The sheriff said decisively: "That won't work. If it's dark, it's easy to get hurt by accident. The other party obviously knows this. Therefore, he not only wants us to cut off the power, but also break the substation. That thing cannot be repaired within a few minutes."

"No, no, it won't be dark." Margaret said: "Did you forget that we have two Paladins?"

Kowisher suddenly said, "The nun means to let us use holy power and emit holy light instead of lighting? If this is the case, then maybe it is possible. Although the coverage of holy light is not very large, we work together and there is still nearly a hundred meters."

The sheriff said: "First agree to them, then the power outage will be pulled out. When they are about to escape, they will suddenly use holy light to light them, and then capture them together?"

Margaret nodded, indicating that she was the one who said that she was.

"This may be possible." The sheriff nodded, then shouted at Yan Xiaoyi: "I can promise you, but how can I ensure that the hostages are safe?"

Yan Xiaoyi laughed and said, "That's your business. I only know that if the power is not cut off in fifteen minutes, I will shoot a hostage, and then every more than one minute, I will shoot another hostage. The sheriff can consider it myself."

The sheriff pretended to be helpless and immediately signaled the police under his command to go and handle it. After a moment, the lights at the intersection instantly dimmed. Not long after, the area became darker. After about five or six minutes, the entire street was pitch black.

The bank suddenly fell silent into the darkness.

"Don't be confused, don't panic." The sheriff whispered to the intercom: "The other party may not leave immediately. Everyone is quiet and pay attention to the sound of the footsteps and the engine."

The sheriff's prestige is not weak. After shouting, the sporadic commotion around him stopped immediately. In an instant, there was no sound except the sound of breathing, only the bank was blurred in the moonlight!

About four or five minutes later, Margaret winked at the two paladins and signaled them to take action, but at this time...

Bang, bang, bang!

Suddenly the gun was fired in the bank, followed by Yan Xiaoyi's shout.

"I've filled the bank with C4 explosives, enough to blow the bank away, and give you five minutes to escape. If you don't have time to escape, then...bang... set off fireworks."

As soon as Yan Xiaoyi finished speaking, he raised his gun and shot at his head. Like a signal, there was a cry from the bank immediately, and countless figures rushed out of the bank and ran around.

"Damn it!" The sheriff immediately cursed and shouted: "Stop everyone, do not use firearms, and the two of them are subduing each other for a group of bare hands!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a policeman shouted in horror in the chaos: "Gun, they have guns."

The sheriff immediately said anxiously: "Look clearly, it may be that he is dressed as a hostage in a gangster and try his best to determine his identity. Only those who have a gun above his shoulders are allowed to fire."

The policeman was silent for a moment and said helplessly: "It's too dark and I can't see clearly."

Margaret said to the two paladins: "Use the Holy Light to illuminate, you can help block the crowd, I'll go to the bank to check it out."

Koweser and Abram nodded at the same time, and then the white holy light on their bodies was illuminating the surroundings like extreme day. After being able to see the surroundings clearly, the police immediately became confident and kept shouting and intercepting the running hostages.

On the other side, Margaret, who deserved the title of the nun of the Holy Spear, rushed to the bank, then hugged his head and smashed the glass and rolled into the bank. When he stood up, there was already a pair of silver engraved holy spears in his hand. He looked around, but no one was found. Only the coffin tied with silver chains was lying there alone. Margaret immediately stepped forward anxiously and opened the coffin and took a look...

Empty!
