Ember Vance crouched in the corner of the wall, also quickly thinking of a strategy. To be honest, it was her first time experiencing a hostage situation with criminals. Although she was afraid, what she thought about more was how to rescue the hostages.
The criminals were cunning and intelligent. They didn't demand a lot of money, only four million, but their goal wasn't the money. They were stalling for time, waiting for nightfall to make their escape.
Ember was anxious, but she didn't have a good solution to the difficult situation at hand.
Time ticked away, minute by minute. During this time, the criminals made contact with the police officers in charge by phone, and the police were gathering the cash.
The man in the white shirt did not release the child because the child was the best hostage.
