Claudia was extremely anxious. She bumped into Henry, wanting to know if he was okay.

"Don't worry, I'm sitting here talking to you just fine. Nothing's wrong. They only hitwith a stick, but I didn't even shed a single drop of blood. It was my fault for missing the opportunity. Those kidnappers are really audacious. They actually set a trap for us along with the officers." Lucas remained silent, contemplating how they could increase their chances of escape.

Sitting idly by was absolutely not an option.

He believed his grandparents would surely rescue him, and indeed, that proved to be true to sextent. Still, he did not think those kidnappers would just sit quietly and do nothing to them. Every second they waited here, their danger increased by another degree.

"Mister Henry, didn't they blindfold you?" asked Lucas.

Henry shook his head. "No, they only tied my hands and feet. Child, is there something you wantto check out?" Henry shifted slightly in Lucas' direction. As the only adult present, he was also figuring out ways to help the two children escape.

No matter how fast the officers arrived, they could not match the speed of the kidnappers' actions. Ever since he was thrown in here, his heart had been hanging in suspense.

"Yes, Mister Henry, I want you to see if there are any other ways out of this room," replied Lucas.

Henry cautiously looked around. The house was in a state of disrepair, resembling the kind of self-built house found in rural areas.

There was only one door, but behind them was a large window, barred with iron wires.

He carefully observed everything he could and relayed it to Lucas.

"What do you think? It seems like they're all guarding the front door." In their room, they could hear the kidnappers laughing and drinking. It seemed they truly did not think they would escape, or perhaps even if swere drinking, others were still keeping an eye on them.

"I'm not sure how many people there are. Mister Henry, you've never been blindfolded. Can you estimate how many of them there are?" asked Lucas.

Henry lowered his head and thought about it for a while before .ne answering, There were three people in the ca earlier, and when they pushedin, I saw two standing at the door. But I'm not sure if there were people in the next room at that time..." "There seems to be one person in the next room. They really don't care about us at all. When Claudia and I were here, they had one person keep guard over us." Henry was quite worked up. "So there are only six people in total. If it's just six people, there's still a chance to escape." Claudia, upon hearing that there

were still so many people, gasped. "They have six people, and there's only three of us. We're all more on less injured now, so how can we escape? Dad, why don't we just wait here for them to rescue us? Who knows what they'll do to us if they catch us escaping? What do you say?"

Henry understood his daughter's fear. He comforted her by saying "Silly child, we'll be as good as waiting for our death if we stay here. We don't know when those

kidnappers will strike! They didn't blindfold me, which means they're not afraid ofseeing their faces.... ve Maybe they eing they never intended for us to leave this room alive from the beginning. Think about it: What's scarier, possibly being punished by them or waiting here to die?" Claudia bit her lip and slumped to the ground, tears streaming down her face. "Why?" X
