Seeing Lucas’ smile, Hedy was a little excited, but she soon pulled Lucas to her side and handed the
chicken drumstick that she had left to Lucas.
"Where did you get the drumstick?"
Lucas was a little surprised.
He had been here for four days. He rarely ate any meat, not to mention drumsticks. Now he suddenly
saw this drumstick, so he was somewhat puzzled.
Hedy gestured to tell him it was Ryan who gave them.
Although he didn't know who Ryan was, he paid heed to this person.
Someone who could be remembered by Samuel was not a good person, and what he gave was not a
good thing.
Although Lucas was hungry and wanted to eat the chicken drumstick, he still hesitated.
"Have you eaten it?"
"I don't like it. You can eat it."
Hedy expressed her meaning, but she pursed her lips and looked elsewhere.
It wasn't that she didn't want to eat it, but that she purposely put it away for Lucas.
Lucas was moved.
He put away the drumstick again and whispered, "I'm not hungry yet. Since you don't like it either, we
can put it away now, so that we can eat it when we are hungry tomorrow."
Hedy did not expect that Lucas would not eat it, so she was slightly stunned.
Lucas could not tell her his guess, but whispered, "You left this for me. You are not allowed to eat it
secretly."
"I won't. I said I don't like it."
Even though Hedy wanted to eat the chicken drumstick, she couldn't do it anymore. She could only
smell the drumstick, and then she pulled Lucas to sleep.
Lucas was awake all night.
He woke up early the next day.
He looked outside and found the sun hadn't risen yet.
For the first time, he felt the time here had passed slowly.
Hedy finally woke up. She found Lucas had wakened early and asked uneasily, "Didn't you sleep all
night?"
"No. But I woke up early. Tell the other children not to betray our intention and to do what we should do.
I promise that we will all leave here today!"
Lucas’ words and eyesight with firmness gave Hedy great encouragement.
She hurriedly woke up the other children and told them what Lucas meant.
Lucas looked outside. He seemed so mature and steady now, unlike a child.
When the guard woke up, he found that the children woke up early today and said happily, "You're
more and more obedient. Great. If so, you will get fewer beatings, and we will be less likely to get
angry. Let's go out for breakfast and start training."
The guard yawned and was off his guard. He felt that the children should have surrendered. He even
asked for a cigarette from the man beside him and lighted it.
"If they continue to be obedient like this, we won't have to work so hard."
"We have to wait for their results."
The guards were chatting.
The only time when these children could eat at the table was morning. Breakfast was not very good. It
was just porridge and fried dough sticks, but it was already good to sit at the table.
The children of the Morning Club came late, while those children in the basement got up early. After
breakfast, they had to prepare training equipment for the children of those clubs.
Lucas and Hedy had always been together.
When there was no one around, Lucas whispered, "No matter when, you must stay by my side today.
Do you understand?"
Although Hedy did not know what Lucas was going to do, she nodded.
After breakfast, Hedy, Lucas and the other children began to go to another place to carry the
equipment here.
Lucas looked around, especially at the surveillance camera. He whispered to Hedy, "Take three steps
to the right and block me for two seconds."
Hedy was nervous. Although she did not know what Lucas was going to do, she still obeyed him and
took three steps to the right to block Lucas.
Lucas quickly put the transmitter on his body under the equipment and stayed calm as if nothing had
happened. Then he continued to carry the equipment to the designated location with Hedy.
However, there was a plug at the designated location.
Nobody noticed that Lucas connected the plug to the transmitter.
Tim's phone suddenly rang.
He frowned slightly.
Who would call him so early?
Because of Nicole, Tim was somewhat disappointed. He went abroad for a few days on the pretext of
doing business. But he was still worried about Nicole, so he returned to the Seapolis City.
However, when he found that Nicole hadn't come out since entering the Green's, and that Samuel
hadn't shown up, Tim became jealous.
They were having a great time because of reunification after a long time of departure. Why did he come
back to see this? Did he enjoy torturing himself?
Tim drank the wine all night out of anger. Now, he still had a headache. When he heard the phone
ringing, he subconsciously turned it off.
Strangely, although he turned off his phone, it kept ringing, as if it was transmitting something.
"Damn, what the hell!"
Tim angrily lifted the blanket and sat up. When he intended to throw away the phone, he saw a map
downloaded on it. There were many details.
The last sentence was "Call the police. Save me! Shooting Club! Lucas!".
Tim frowned.
Lucas?
Did something happen to Lucas?
He hurriedly picked up the landline and wanted to call Nicole, but then he stopped.
Lucas wasn't an ordinary child.
If something happened, why didn't he ask for help from the Green family? Why didn't he even ask
Samuel and Nicole for help? Instead, he sent the message to his phone.
Was it because Lucas was familiar with his phone? Or was it because Lucas had installed something
on his phone that allowed it to receive messages from Lucas instantly?
Tim felt puzzled.
When Lucas saw the transmitter had transmitted everything out, he pulled it off and pretended that
nothing had happened. He began to work with the other children.
After everything was packed up, they were brought back to the training ground to practice holding the
breath.
When jumping into the water, Lucas threw the transmitter into the water.
If electronics were soaked in water, they would soon become useless.
He couldn't risk his life, couldn't let anyone know that he had made that thing, and couldn't let anyone
find it out from his body. Now, his only hope was Tim.
He hoped this stupid man would not go to the Green's to ask for help.
Because it was improvised, there were too few things that could be stored. Otherwise, Lucas would
have explained the situation to Tim. Now, Lucas could only tell him the most important information.
Lucas hoped Tim would understand.
Lucas did not install instructions on other people's cell phones. He only remembered Tim's. It was
because when he cooperated with Tim last time, he gave his instruction to Tim's cell phone. Otherwise,
he would likely send the message to Samuel.
However, if Vincent did all this for him, he didn't know if Samuel's phone was being monitored.
Because Lucas was distracted, he accidentally choked on water.
The water rushed into his nose, uncomfortable, but he couldn't lift his head because of being pressed
down in the water.
Lucas began to struggle.
He felt the arrival of death again.
Hedy noticed Lucas’ strange behavior and struggled to save him, but was viciously pressed down by
the man beside her.
"Be well-behaved! You can get out after 20 seconds!"
Hedy was so anxious that she almost cried.
Lucas choked and spat out bubbles.
Twenty seconds!
He could do it!
He couldn't die!
He had sent the message out with great difficulty. He had to take Hedy out of here.
Lucas quickly adjusted his breathing and held his breath. However, because he had choked on water,
he did not succeed.
Twenty seconds usually passed in a flash for Lucas, but now, it was simply a kind of torture.
He felt as if a century had passed. When he thought that he really couldn't hold on, the guard suddenly
let him go.
Lucas suddenly got out and gasped for breath.
Hedy was worried and anxious, but she could not step forward.
Lucas looked at her and shook his head, indicating that he was fine.
He didn't know when Tim would arrive or whether he would do as he thought. All he could do now was
wait.
A minute after looking at the phone, Tim couldn't figure out the reason.
Forget it!
He had better call Nicole first.
He picked up the landline again, but for some reason, he called Jacob.
It had never happened before.
He and Jacob were enemies. Why would he call Jacob?
Tim didn't understand it even after Jacob answered the phone.
"What's the matter?"
Jacob was also a little surprised.
Tim coughed and said, "I have a question for you."
"Say it."
"Lucas sent me a map and told me to call the police to save him, but why didn't he send a message to
Samuel or Nicole? Why did he send it to me? What happened in the Green's?"
Just as Tim finished speaking, Jacob became nervous.
"Then did you call Nicole?"
"Are you stupid? If I do it, why do I ask you?"
Tim felt he had made a mistake. Jacob was more stupid than him.
"Forget it. I'll deal with it myself. I knew you're more stupid than me."
As he was about to hang up, Jacob said, "There is someone in the Green family who wants to hurt
Samuel and Nicole. I'm not sure whether Lucas is in the Green's. However, since he sent you a
distress signal, it means that he is in danger. He trusted you and thought you were the only hope. Tim, I
don't care about your attitude towards the Green family. I beg you to save Lucas. It's for Nicole."
Tim frowned again.
For Nicole?
Even Jacob knew to threaten him with Nicole, but why couldn't she see his feelings for her?
