The robbery

Xiao Chen, the butler will be changed to Lao Chen

Chapter 41

Wei Jun, dressed in black clothes with a long overcoat with its collar raised to avoid being recognized, entered a hotel building and made his way to the room he had booked. Not under his name of course but he had used one of the identities of the people he had killed while acquiring the bike and other stuff from the other day.

So far their bodies hadn't been discovered so there was no harm in using their identities for stuff he didn't want to be caught for. Wei Jun entered his room and set the briefcase he was carrying on the bed.

{Cameras back online in thirty seconds boss}

{Are you in the room?}

"I am." Wei Jun replied in his earpiece before he unhooked the window sill and took off the entire window of the room. He then set up a wired rope and hooked it to the building across the road.

He covered himself up and then glided across the buildings using the wire.

'Make sure she isn't recording anything.'

[I had already made sure of that, host]

Although Li Wei was useful, Wei Jun didn't trust her in the least so even though she knew what he was doing, there was no way she would be able to prove it. Not unless she wanted to stop living.

He landed and rolled on the top of the three-story building. He opened an electrical panel on the roof and set up one of the jammers in it.

{Done, boss}

{But it will only last for seven minutes so you should hurry}

Wei Jun nodded and entered the building from the stairs. He didn't go for the ground floor but the first floor where the vault of the building was.

"What the… Hey! YOU CAN'T BE HERE!!" A guard standing in front of the metallic door yelled when he saw a masked man.

Wei Jun couldn't help but seethe at his stupidity. There was a masked man in the vault's vicinity and he was telling him he couldn't be there. Wei Jun couldn't bear the stupidity and used the stun gun to neutralize both the guards before they could react.

'What an illogical world.' Wei Jun thought inwardly as he entered the room and closed it using the guard's key.

[Please put your hand on the vault, host]

Wei Jun put his hand on the vault's door and in under thirteen seconds, he heard a click signifying it was opened.

Wei Jun pulled, opened the vault door, and entered the room. Inside there were wads of cash but Wei Jun wasn't there for them. He hurriedly placed small explosives on the five boxes that were suspected to have what he needed.

After the explosions, Wei Jun pulled out the boxes. Three of them had some pieces of jewelry while the other two had a flash drive and a bunch of papers. He picked up the flash drive for which he was there but he also became curious about the papers in the other box. He checked the papers and under that mask, he couldn't help but grin.

"Jackpot." He said in a low voice before he turned to the stacks of fistfuls of cash. He checked each of them but all of them were marked so there was no use taking them.

"Anything useful in here?" Wei Jun asked Li Wei over the comms.

{Unfortunately, everything is marked, boss}

{It would be a problem}

Wei Jun nodded and left the vault. He came to the top of the building once again and severed the wire from his side. The roller on the other side collected the rope but Wei Jun left it there as evidence.

Although he knew there was a chance this might not even make it to the news due to the nature of what he stole, if it did, he wanted to leave proper evidence to point away from him.

He used the building's fire escape to make it to the road. He stored everything he was wearing inside the inventory and equipped another suit. He avoided the camera and made it across a couple of buildings. A dentist building where he had an appointment.

=====

[Your teeth are quite healthy, host]

'Are you making fun of me?'

[I would never dare]

The system was making fun of Wei Jun. The dentist wasn't very happy with Wei Jun wasting his time but since Wei Jun was who he was, the dentist said nothing but that didn't stop him from unintentionally mishandling equipment such as the drill and sharp stuff.

'I should have kicked his ass when he tried to scare me with the drill.' Wei Jun inwardly thought.

[But it was fruitful today, isn't it?]

[Especially with what you found]

'Of course it was.' Wei Jun smirked and laughed inwardly as he remembered what he had found.

"So what can you tell us about the movie that you are currently filming, Miss Lu?" A PR team member recorded videos while another one asked questions from the actors who were at the set the next day. It was the third day of the shooting and the progress was insane under Wei Jun's command. Any scene's flaw was instantly noticed and fixed before too much time was wasted.

"To be honest, I never thought that I could shoot a film so fast. I believe it is all due to our director whose commands are near perfect that we are able to make such fast progress." Xia Lu stated this fact as even though she didn't have a good image of Wei Jun, over the past week living with him, she couldn't help but acknowledge his skills.

"The genres of the movie are romantic, action, and crime thriller. Personally, I like the story a lot and I am confident no such movie has been made before." Xia Lu then answered the question after a little praise for the publicity of the movie.

"When do you think the movie will be completed?" The member once again asked.

"Well, with how fast we are going, I suspect us to be done in two months and then maybe a month for editing and such. To be honest I'm not familiar with such things so I cannot answer perfectly about it." Xia Lu answered.

"We have noticed that except for you, all other actors in the movie are beginners. How do you find yourself working with them and do you think it a correct move?" The member then asked. This was a question specifically designed by Wei Jun but unlike other questions, he hadn't given an answer to that and had asked them to be honest.

"To be honest, I was skeptical at first. Two actors with no experience at all, one small actor and another stage actress. There was no way they would be able to do much in the movie but if I have to be honest, I would say that all of the credit for that goes to our director. It was just guidance but also the method he adopted to make these new actors shine. So overall, I am finding it a lot of fun to work with these new people who have different perspectives of everything and aren't as arrogant as other movie actors in the film industry." Xia Lu gave her reply, as honestly as she could.

Done with the interview, the PR team moved on to the rest of the actors to get their views. The day was done and the first on-set interview of the film was launched on social platforms, gaining a lot of attention from Yuan Yin city overnight.

"We have received a lot of requests and calls for investing in the movie overnight. These are the files with information about them." Lao Chen said and handed Wei Jun a few files. Wei Jun took the files and threw them away.

"No need for them right now. Forget about the movie stuff and tell me about any news from the Tian family." Wei Jun asked, focusing on the more pressing matter.

"Panic." Lao Chen began with one word that made Wei Jun happy which was a signal for Loa Chen to explain, "They have launched an intense internal investigation and have concealed the matter from the police. The patriarch of the family has further taken away all the privileges from Yao Tian"

Wei Jun laughed as he said, "So he has nothing now. But that doesn't solve anything, now does it? We need an ace in the hole and that would be the second incompetent one."

Wei Jun stopped laughing as he said, "Set up a meeting with Noh Tian, the elder son of the Tian family."

"He might not be as gullible as you expect, Young Master." Lao Chen suggested but Wei Jun simply waved his hand as he replied, "He may be smart and everything but in the end, he is overshadowed by his younger brother. He will jump however high I want if he gets a chance to get out of that shadow."

Lao Chen nodded at Wei Jun's insight as he replied, "I will have it done shortly, Young Master."

To be honest I didn't want to elongate the robbery so I opted for the fastest method there was.

I don't know if it sits well with you guys so let me know in the comments if you think otherwise and I will see what I can do about it.
