Trading With Another World

Problems in the Bank

Blue Planet.

Alex stared at the morning sun that appeared on the eastern horizon from the balcony of his room on the sixth floor.

"Hi Alex, did you sleep well?"

A few meters away from Alex's position, Helen shouted as she waved her hand.

"of course. This place is really nice."

"How about we go down to the first floor and have breakfast?"

Alex gestured okay with his right hand.

Opening the door to his room, Alex not only finds Helen in the corridor. It was Dino who was leaning against the wall while closing her eyes with both hands folded on her chest. "You two are so noisy! Don't you realize it's gonna bother the others?"

"No problem. After all, only the three of us live on the sixth floor now."

"Is the other two rooms empty?"

"It's not. Previously, the empty room was just the room you currently occupied. The other two rooms are filled by Catherine and Veronica who usually sleep in girls' school dormitories."

When Helen and Dino take Alex to his room, Alex is shocked to learn that the room he will occupy is very spacious. Dino said that in this building, the residence of the members from the sixth to the tenth floor has five rooms for each floor.

Since Alex still had to tidy up the items he was carrying, they had not spoken much the night before.

'Catherine? Veronica? Isn't that a girl's name?' Alex looked at Dino in amazement.

Noticing the strange gaze from Alex, Dino suddenly thought of something and realized what Alex was thinking. "Don't think of me like that. Even though I was the only man here before, I've never done anything strange to them."

"Yet? You mean you want to do something before?"

"What are you talking about there? Get in the elevator!"

"Ba-well Helen! Alex, don't talk about it here anymore."

"Hahaha, just calm down. My mouth can be locked at a cheap price."

After finishing breakfast, the three set off together for their school. The distance between the Chryso Dory headquarters and the school is only two kilometers, so they do not need to ride buses or other vehicles.

The first class was filled by biology teachers. Although Alex had no intention of continuing his education after graduating high school, he still listened to the teacher's explanation up front. After all, who knows the science he received today can be useful in the future.

After school, Alex returns to headquarters to pick up his butut motorcycle.

Benzir has promised to provide stock books to him today. For that, he had to go to the bank and take money from his savings.

After taking the queue number, Alex tasted snacks provided for free by the bank.

Crackle... Crackle...

'Hm... It's pretty good. Since no one is eating it, I will bring this to my seat.' He carried a plate filled with snacks onto his stool without caring about the views of others.

While enjoying a snack, Alex is disturbed by a number of people dressed in all black and wearing masks barging through the entrance of the bank.

"You all get down! Getdown!"

Dor... Dor... Dor...

The man in front fired his gun upwards to scare the crowd inside the bank.

"Yeah... Robbery, there's a robbery!!!"

"Saydown! If you keep yelling, I'll hole up your body right now."

'What's this? They robbed a bank blatantly in the city center, do they ignore the police officers?'

Following the others, Alex grabbed his body to the floor and cupped both hands over his head.

In the corner of his eye, Alex notices a woman sneaking up on a robber who is some distance away from his comrades.

Then the woman locked the robber's neck with her left hand. With his right hand, he pointed a gun at the robber's head and shouted, "Let your weapons down. Otherwise, I'll kill this guy!"

"Hohoho beautiful woman, dare you also fight us. Just kill that guy if you want. But if you do, we'll kill ten people here instead."

Alex felt that he could not stay silent anymore. Previously, he had intended to do nothing and leave the case to the police. After all, he was forbidden to actively play heroes like in movies.

But if he were to remain silent when there were others who might lose their lives before his eyes, his conscience would be troubled.

Since there is a cctv inside the bank, Alex has no intention of showing strength that exceeds normal human limits. He quietly put his hand in his bag, then took the gun from his inventory.

Then he fired three shots in a row right after hitting the three arms of the robber who was focusing on the woman.

"Akhhhh....."

"What's wrong?"

Two colleagues guarding the front door rushed in when they heard the sound of the screams of their friends.

Without making small talk, Alex shot each of his right legs.

Bukk!!!

The two fell forward smelling the slippery ceramic floor.

Then Alex approached the five robbers who were holding pain on the floor, and took all their weapons. As before, he pretended to put the weapon in a bag to trick the cctv, before putting it into the inventory.

When he intended to take the weapon of the robber who was being held by the woman, the woman instead yelled at him fiercely. "Don't come near. Tell me your identity first!"

Alex didn't care about the woman. Besides, he saved this woman and the people in the bank. Not that this woman was grateful, she instead heard the vicious chatter from the woman.

"Keep away, otherwise I'll shoot you!"

Alex's hand stopped right from touching the robber's gun that the woman was holding. The veins on his forehead bulged out as it held the anger in his chest. He calmed himself down while slowly putting the weapon into the bag, before casually saying, "Are you a cop?"

"That's right. You better obey....."

"That's great. Call your captain immediately and show him this card."

Alex cut the woman's words impatiently. He showed Chryso Dory's identity card to the female police in front of him, so that the situation did not become troublesome.

"What'sthis? You think with this card you can just be free? Civilians are forbidden to carry weapons for whatever reason. Moreover, you took all the weapons belonging to this robber. You must come with me to be questioned!"

"Didn't I save everyone? These robbers are still alive. I've only been after their hands before."

"I don't care. I will explain everything to the captain to give you the appropriate punishment."

Krek!!!

The woman hit the neck of the robber she had locked up earlier and knocked him unconscious. Since he was not carrying handcuffs, he used a strong rope to tie the hands and feet of the six robbers lying on the floor.

As long as the woman bound the robbers, Alex noticed that no one approached her and thanked her. He instead saw a slight expression of fear appear when he looked eye to eye with them.

Just natural. Unlike magic planets, this world looks much more peaceful. At least on the surface.

The number of people who have been in direct contact with crime is not up to one percent of the total community.

Alex returns to notice the beautiful policeman who is tying the robbers. 'I can't wait to see your attitude change later when I find out that your captain only respects me.'

He tried to calm his emotions towards the stubbornness of the woman in front of him.
