Chapter 12: Seven million dollars
When Huo Zaiyuan wakes up after spending a night in his space, he feels that all the exhaustion and soreness he felt in his body yesterday have all disappeared. Sunlight is already filtering through the windows when he opens his eyes to the shabby hotel room. According to his phone, it is 8 in the morning.
Heavens, time flowing in his space really is much slower than on earth. How long did he actually spent sleeping in that bamboo house?
Shaking his head helplessly, he takes out the laptop from his backpack. At that time, he bought a wireless modem because it was convenient, allowing him to surf the internet anytime and anywhere. Now, he feels the impulsive action is advantageous as he doesn't need to go around searching for a free wifi to connect to.
Opening the laptop, the first thing Huo Zaiyuan checks on is the military arrest warrant that is still circulating online. Seeing that it has not been removed yet, he sighs and curses in his heart.
Closing the pop-up display page, he opens ZG bank's website. On the day he signed that contract, the money that is part of his inheritance had been transferred to his account. Prior to that, he still had about fifty thousand dollars and adding that seven million from his portion of father's monetary assets…as of now, the more money he has, the better. There is no such thing as having too much.
Not to mention, he is now a wanted man. If h wants to go to the bank to withdraw money, it will definitely be very risky as people can follow the trails he will leave behind by using his ATM card. He cannot do that, but he also cannot leave this large sum sitting in his bank account when he needs to use them to buy supplies. It looks like his only choice is to take risks out of desperation.
Huo Zaiyuan is someone who will do what he thinks of doing, so putting the laptop back in his bag, he shoulders it and leaves the hotel. The bank is already open at 8am and he wants to go in to withdraw that seven million to store it all in his space. After that, he will take the train and leave S city. That way, it will be even more difficult for the person who issued his warrant to catch Huo Zaiyuan.
Early in the morning, there naturally will not be many patrons going into the bank. Huo Zaiyuan heads directly for the first available service station, taking out his bank card.
"Pretty older sister, I want to withdraw everything from my bank account." Although he has a cap on his head, he dares not look up as he is worried the CCTV in the bank will be able to take a clear shot of his face.
"Sure. Please wait a moment."The pretty lady takes the card from him and begins the withdrawal procedure. When the card goes through and the amount on it read seven million, that lady is truly shocked. "This…"
"Yes. I want to withdraw everything."
"Of course."
She immediately contacts her supervisor in preparation for a large withdrawal of money.
This bank is very efficient, managing to handle the withdrawal of seven million in cash in only a short twenty minutes. The supervisor brings Huo Zaiyuan down to a safe within the bank.
"Seven million."
"Very good. I'm sorry to inconvenience you, but could you all please step out." Huo Zaiyuan's lips curved up slightly, showing a faint smile.
"This…" The supervisor looks at his smile, then at the pile of cash before nodding his head. "Of course."
After the supervisor left, Huo Zaiyuan carefully searches the safe's surroundings. Sure enough, there is a camera hidden in the corner. Smiling lightly, he pulls over a tablecloth as he approaches the pile of cash, blocking the camera's view as the wide area of the cloth spreads out. As the camera is blinded, he quickly transfers all the money into his space and leaves the bank hurriedly.
When the supervisor himself goes out to meet Long Zhanye as the military men enter the bank, that safe has long since been cleared of both the money and the person.
"How…how is this possible…?"
"Damn it! Go search for me! Doesn't money have a code or a trail to follow?" Once again he missed by an inch. Exactly what kind of ability does that little devil have ah?
