Gu Enen clearly heard the sound of the gun being cocked in Madam Gu's hand, and that sound exploded in her mind like a thunderous clamor.
It startled her, made her heart race, even causing a twinge of pain in her lower abdomen. She instinctively curled her body, but with her hands being held, any movement made the pain all the more noticeable.
"Four, three..."
When Madam Gu's voice counted down to "three," suddenly they heard many footsteps outside the door, followed by loud knocks and shouts: "Open the door, open the door, it's the police!"
Madam Gu frowned, looked at Han Chengchi in disbelief, and asked, "You called the police?"
Han Chengchi stood there, unperturbed, shrugging at Madam Gu, looking completely at ease.
He did indeed call the police.
Upon receiving Madam Gu's call, before going upstairs, he had already called the authorities.
"Han Chengchi, you forced me. Since it's like this, none of us will live!"
