Chapter 561 - 572: Arrogant Thug
"You may think I wouldn’t dare!" The thug said calmly, "If we get caught, our group would be executed a hundred times over, so talk of surrender is useless. Unless you kill us all, we will never be captured by you."
John Harris shouted angrily, "You absolutely cannot harm the hostages, or we will never let you get away with it."
"Haha... whether we kill the hostages or not, the outcome is the same if we’re caught. So save your breath. I’m giving you ten minutes to think. If not, in ten minutes, you’ll have to start collecting bodies."
This put John Harris in a tough spot. Agreeing to the thug’s demands would be like letting the tiger back into the mountain, leaving them with a huge responsibility. But refusing the thugs, risking harm to the hostages, also placed a significant burden on them.
"Ten minutes, it goes by fast." The thug said again, then dragged the hostage back. As he retreated inside, there was suddenly a gunshot. The hostage’s body fell forward.
However, the hostage wasn’t dead; it was just that the other leg got shot, and they were lying on the ground howling in pain.
"I’m just letting you know, we aren’t afraid to take action. This time, I shot him in one leg. Next time, we’ll definitely send out a corpse." Another thug’s voice came from inside.
"Help me! Help me!" The hostage lay on the ground, raising a hand and shouting towards the police.
