Four hundred and thirtieth eight chapters Cincinnati robbers
When Lin Ying had already spoken for this reason, Carter no longer pressed...
With Lin Ying's consent, Carter decided to go to Ohio first to visit Lin Ying's father, Mr. Lin Heng. With the handwriting of Mr. Liang Sicheng's family, plus the coordination from the Chinese side, it must be that this design work was done by Mr. Liang's disciples.
We should not refuse...
"Do you really want to buy so many gifts? Will Professor Lin not accept them?"
Early the next morning, almost as soon as the Cincinnati Walmart opened, Carter rushed in with Norton. After a large purchase, Norton looked at his hands that were almost full of tobacco and alcohol gifts, and couldn't help but
Smash your tongue.
"Probably not. It is not difficult for us to ask him for help. As for gifts, hahaha, the Chinese are different from us. Generally speaking, the more gifts and the more expensive they are, the more they will feel
You value him and respect him... Of course, if the value is too high, they will also suspect you of ulterior motives. Therefore, this kind of supermarket gift is very suitable. It is large in quantity, rich in variety, and of high value. I would say it is low.
Not low. Very good!”
"Okay, you have the final say!"
Listening to Carter's introduction, Norton didn't know whether it was OK or not. As a worker, he can do whatever the boss says~
Carrying large and small bags of gifts, he walked out of the supermarket and stuffed the items into a rented car. After the car started driving, the idea of buying a private jet came into Carter's mind again.
Originally, the Ohio University where Lin Heng worked was located in Athens, which was near Columbus. As a result, the flight time was not coincidental, so he had no choice but to fly to Cincinnati first, and then go north...
Although the distance between cities in the United States is generally not large, the distance from Cincinnati to Columbus is only about 160 kilometers. It can be reached in less than 2 hours by taking the expressway, but it is really inefficient to take a detour every time because of this problem.
In addition, as the number of institutional investors increases, Carter feels that this matter can no longer be delayed...
The more people there are, the more different voices will be heard! It will be much more difficult to pass the proposal to purchase an aircraft at the ht shareholder meeting. But for this... you still have to go to Boston...
"Squeak~"
Just when Carter was thinking about his next itinerary, there was a sudden sound of brakes in his ears. Without checking, Carter's head hit the back of the front seat. When he came to his senses, only
I saw two arms suddenly raised in front of me...
"Peng Peng Peng!"
"Get off the car! Get off the car quickly, if you don't want your head to burn out!"
Beside the car door, there were about four or five black men, impatiently patting the glass of the car where Carter and the two were sitting. One of them had a pistol in his hand...
"Boss, I don't have the gun on me... I'm going to go down and talk to you first and see if I can spend a little money to get rid of them. Safety comes first now!"
Damn Democratic city! Damn airport security!
While Norton was cursing secretly in his heart, he did not forget his responsibilities. After giving Carter instructions in a low voice, he opened the car door and walked out facing the opponent's gun...
"Where is there another person? Come out!"
Only Norton was seen getting off the car, and the black people were a little dissatisfied. A black man standing outside Carter's seat picked up the hammer he carried with him, raised his arm and planned to knock on the glass...
"Hey! Guys, what do you want? I'll just give it to you, okay? Don't embarrass more people...here's $10..."
Seeing someone threatening his employer, Norton quickly took out a 10-dollar bill from his pocket and waved it while moving his body behind the car in an attempt to stop the other person's behavior...
However, the behavior that usually works failed at this time. Carter, who was sitting in the back seat, saw another person next to the black man with the gun outside the window. He directly raised his fist and hit Norton hard in the face.
Go up. While smashing, you are still cursing:
"What the hell are you sending away to a beggar for ten dollars?! How much did you just buy? 500 dollars? Or 1,000 dollars? Tell him to get out of the car quickly! Otherwise..."
"Fifty! How about fifty dollars? Guys, you don't want to get involved in a felony, do you?"
Holding back the pain, Norton blocked the door of the back seat with his body and continued to take money out of his pocket...
Under normal circumstances, in American law, there are huge differences in sentencing for robbery, assault, and even homicide. Even for the same crime, there is a big difference between a premeditated crime and an unpremeditated crime.
Generally speaking, if you encounter robbers in the United States, you can basically lose money and avoid disaster, and they will not make it too difficult for you. Because the police are too lazy to take care of a small amount of money, but if there is a death, shooting, etc., the situation will be
Completely different!
Carter couldn't say that there was anything wrong with Norton's behavior, but...this group of people obviously premeditated the crime!
The car lying in front of the road told the situation, and there were four or five people with clear division of labor...
This is completely different from the impromptu robbery on the roadside! They might not...
"Hey, more than two hundred dollars! Hardy! We really caught a big fish. This guy has two hundred dollars on him...then..."
Sure enough, the banknotes that Norton had just taken out were swept away by the group of people without saying a word. Their eyes were all staring at him, and he...
Carter was a little nervous for a while, because when traveling, in order to facilitate payment, Carter usually carries about 3,000 cash with him so that he can pay in some small stores, because small stores, including some small gas stations, usually do not accept checks, especially
It was a check from an interstate bank. They couldn't verify it in time, and the customer left as soon as he left. Once the check was found to be fraudulent later, the loss would be too great.
And three thousand US dollars is not a small number for ordinary people these days. Carter has to consider the possibility that the other party will steal money and kill people...and usually, if the amount is too large, these people may not really take the risk.
...
What if you rob some narrow-minded rich people? Just kill them and it will be over. As long as no one calls the police, it might be easier...
Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Carter put one hand into his pocket and clutched the money; with the other hand, he opened the car door and got out of the car facing the eyeing black people. At the same time, Carter used the corner of his eye to look at possible escape routes around him.
...
"Take your hands out!
"
Seeing that Carter's right hand was always in his pocket, all the black people became nervous instantly. If they were not too close, they could see that Carter's trouser pocket was stretched out, and it did not look like a pistol. I'm afraid this would have directly
It's possible to shoot...
"Ok, ok! I'll take the money, I'll take my time, don't be nervous..."
The crazy surge of adrenaline made Carter's voice hoarse. As he spoke in a slow and low voice, the fingers in Carter's trouser pocket were also quickly digging out the banknotes from his wallet...
Just when his fingers were about to leave his trouser pockets, Carter took advantage of the fact that several people's attention was attracted by the possible arrival of money, and suddenly increased the speed of his hands.
A handful of rain of banknotes flying in the sky fell on the black people...
The hand that fell back pulled Norton, and Carter's body started to move:
"run!"
