She hadn't time to understand why Elisa had done that when, suddenly, a criminal smoothly pulled a mother and son from the crowd right at its edge.
If Elisa hadn't pushed them to the middle earlier, it could very well have been them who were dragged out.
Now, it was Qi Heng and his mom who were pulled out.
The mother and son had almost escaped just moments ago but were unfortunately caught and brought back; each received several slaps to the face and a few kicks.
Both mother and son glared angrily at the criminal. Madam Qi, far from scared, even threatened the criminal, "You've got some nerve. Do you know who I am? If you were smart, you'd let us go, or my husband will have you shot."
"Smack!"
She hadn't expected her threat to fail and received a slap on her face.
Big Beard sneered, "Shoot us? I'll shoot you first."
The dark muzzle of the gun pointed at her as he was about to pull the trigger; a scream erupted from a timid woman.
