Chapter 91 Ladies and gentlemen, the robbery begins! (Eighth update)

On the K3 train.

When Magan and Binzi returned to the private room carrying steaming bread, borscht, and some simple cooked food.

Seeing the robbers tied up like dumplings, gagged, and with bruised and swollen faces in the corner, he was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Hey! What's going on here?"

He looked at Qin Yuan and laughed, "Brother Yuan, did we open for business ahead of schedule and catch a few petty thieves?"

Ma Gan'er placed the food on the small table and looked curiously at the short man on the ground.

Binzi squatted down, pulled the rag out of the short man's mouth, and asked in a cold voice, "Where are you from?"

The short man had lost all his previous ferocity; only fear and pain remained on his face.

He was breathing heavily, his eyes darting around, and he spoke haltingly in heavily accented Mandarin:
“I… my name is Shao Wei… I used to… I used to be a middleman… a businessman…”

In Shao Wei's remorseful and distorted narration, a typical tragic story unfolds before the audience.

In October 1990, I heard about K3 as a way to make money, but I don't know where it came from.

So, Shao Wei, full of dreams of getting rich, dragged his suitcase full of Chinese goods such as down jackets and boarded the K3 train to Moscow.

Like all those who are speculators with dreams, he was not afraid of hardship and firmly believed that he could make a lot of money and live a wealthy life by making more trips.

His efforts were indeed rewarded on his first resale.

The goods were of good quality and reasonably priced, making them very popular in the Moscow market and earning a considerable sum of cash.

The joy of success filled him with hope for the future, and he became increasingly daring, gradually losing his vigilance against risks.

In what seemed like an ordinary transaction on the outskirts of Moscow, he suffered a devastating blow.

The other party was not a buyer at all, but a robbery gang that had been eyeing him for a long time!

The other party acted quickly, robbing him of all his cash and even stripping him of his thick coat.

His dream of getting rich shattered in an instant; penniless, he was stranded in a foreign land.

After that, Shao Wei was robbed of all his possessions on the train, which completely extinguished his hope and replaced it with twisted hatred.

He reasoned that if others could get rich by robbing, why couldn't he?
So he took the initiative to find and join a robbery gang made up of "scalpers".

With his southern accent, he became the gang's "informant," specifically targeting southern businessmen.

The northern woman who knocked on the door was the one in the gang responsible for "opening the door."

"A gang of black marketeers? Hundreds of people? From all over the country?" Qin Yuan frowned slightly after hearing Shao Wei's description, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

How long has it been since he opened up the K3 golden road?

How could such a large and organized criminal gang have emerged so quickly?
This efficiency is even faster than his kvass distribution!
"It's just a cooperative arrangement, with each group acting in its own small circle, fighting its own battles..." Shao Wei added timidly, his eyes darting around, "The rest of the trip isn't safe either, you... you'd better release us as soon as possible."

"Otherwise...otherwise you won't fare well either if the gang members come up to you."

"Can't get any credit?" Gangzi's temper flared up the moment he heard this.

He kicked Shao Wei and yelled, "Someone hurt you, so you go and hurt others?"

"You're a fucking coward! You only dare to attack people weaker than you, you piece of trash!"

Shao Wei groaned as he was kicked, curled up on the ground, and dared not utter another word.

The subsequent events proved Shao Wei right.

Starting from Irkutsk, almost every time the train stopped at a slightly larger station, a wave of "prospective passengers" would board.

Some pretended to ask for directions, while others pretended to sell things; harassment occurred in every carriage.

Several groups, like Shao Wei's group, foolishly went to Qin Yuan's private room.

Their methods were exactly the same: to snatch something when the person wasn't looking and run away.

Unfortunately, they encountered no ordinary middleman.

Binzi, Wu Weiguo, Gangzi, and Magan'er easily dealt with these petty thieves who were armed with daggers, iron bars, or at most a homemade gun.

Andrei and his men didn't even make a move.

In total, more than a dozen people were arrested!

Qin Yuan contacted the train conductor directly and had these people locked in a separate empty carriage at the rear of the train, where the conductor would guard them, in preparation for handing them over to the police upon arrival at the station.

The train sped along, traversing the vast Mongolian Plateau and crossing the Gobi Desert on the China-Mongolia border.

Finally, a reassuring announcement in Chinese came over the radio:
"Attention passengers, the train is about to reach the Chinese border." "Due to the difference in track width, the train will stop at the depot for two hours before entering China for chassis replacement."

"Please be patient and get ready."

"Haha! Brother Yuan!" Gangzi slapped his thigh excitedly upon hearing the broadcast. "Looks like those bastards from Jia Dai really chickened out. We're practically at our doorstep and haven't seen a single one. We've made it home safely this time!"

Wu Weiguo and Binzi also showed relaxed smiles.

Ma Gan'er breathed a long sigh of relief.

Qin Yuan remained vigilant. He glanced at his watch; the hands pointed to midnight.

Outside the window, the night was as dark as ink, and the cold wind howled, swirling up the snow on the ground with a mournful sound.

Searchlights swept across the border in the distance, adding to the somber atmosphere.

Dark moon, murderous night.

This is the best time for murder and arson.

"Don't be careless." Qin Yuan's voice was deep and clear. "The closer we get to the end, the more careful we need to be."

The train slowly pulled into the border depot.

The massive iron gate slowly closed behind us, shutting out the howling cold wind.

The garage was brightly lit, but the vast space and the parked trains and equipment cast large shadows.

The train came to a stop, and the passengers in the carriages all breathed a sigh of relief. Some began to pack their luggage, while others leaned back in their seats and closed their eyes to rest, waiting for the chassis to be replaced.

Qin Yuan looked out the car window at the busy railway workers and the huge crane equipment below, his eyes frighteningly calm.

at this time!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Three crisp, piercing gunshots rang out like thunderclaps in the empty garage!
Then came the deafening roar of the engine!
"Boom——!!!"

A modified off-road vehicle, resembling a steel monster, violently smashed through the heavy iron gate of the garage!
Splinters of wood and metal flew everywhere!

The car door opened wide, and two masked thugs carrying AK47 assault rifles leaned out, their guns spitting fire!

“Da da da da da——!!!”

A hail of bullets swept towards the unsuspecting railway guards at the garage entrance!
The screams were instantly drowned out by the deafening gunfire!
Blood splattered in a glaring red on the cold concrete floor!
Kayo's declaration that she valued money over her life seemed to be a lie from the very beginning.

“Ahhhh——!!!”

Inside the carriage, the passengers who were waiting for the chassis to be replaced were instantly thrown into extreme panic!
Screams, cries, and the clattering of tables and chairs filled the air!
People huddled under their seats or in corners like frightened sheep, trembling with fear!

The railway workers below the train were terrified; they dropped their tools and fled in all directions!
“Buzz—buzz—buzz—!”

The roar of engines came from all directions!
Seven or eight motorcycles rushed in through the garage's ventilation openings and side doors like ghosts!
The drivers, wearing menacing helmets and wielding machetes or pistols, instantly blocked all possible exits!

Three SUVs followed closely behind, surrounding the entire garage like hungry wolves!
Kayo appeared on the roof of an SUV, holding a megaphone and grinning maliciously.

His voice echoed through the loudspeaker in the empty garage, drowning out the chaotic noise:

"Everyone! Everyone! Quiet! Quiet! I am Kayo!"

"Some of you may have heard my name before, or this may be the first time you've heard it, it doesn't matter!"

He paused, then his voice suddenly rose, and he said coldly:
"Today! I've come to seek wealth!"

"Now, everyone, get off the bus!"

"Robbery—begin!"

"Bang!" He fired a shot into the air, seemingly as a final warning!

At a single command, the bandits, who had been unable to contain themselves any longer, jumped off their off-road vehicles and motorcycles like a tidal wave!

Armed with AK47s, shotguns, machetes, and iron bars, their faces filled with greed and violence, they charged towards the stopped train like wolves and tigers!

"Get off! Get the fuck off!"

"Hand over the money! If you don't want to die, you'd better behave!"

"Get down here! Or we'll shoot!"

Rough shouts, the clanging of a gun butt against a door, a woman's screams, a child's cries...

It instantly filled the entire garage!
(This is Chapter 8. There's still more, and the keyboard is sparking.)
