Aside from the children, everyone at the scene was a parent.
Who wouldn't feel for their own kid?
Seeing a mother so distraught, the hearts of everyone around tightened.
A child's safety is every parent's most sensitive nerve.
If it were their own child held hostage, they'd likely be crying even more hysterically, and the scene would be far more chaotic.
"That's right! Stop them! One step closer, and she won't see tomorrow's sun!"
The robber continued to shout, a twisted smile contorting his face.
He brandished the knife, his eyes darting around warily.
But before the words had even left his mouth, a figure suddenly shot out from behind and to the side.
No one saw how he got so close.
With a crisp SNAP, the knife was snatched away, landing securely in the man's hand.
Immediately after, Cao Jiajia was quickly pulled behind him.
The next second, the thug was pinned hard to the ground, his arms wrenched behind his back and his spine pressed flat, unable to move a muscle.
