There was a moment of silence outside the door.


    Then the door shook violently with a loud bang.Còntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    The man outside raised his voice and shouted: “Get out of the way, I’m going to break the lock so I can get in and save you.


    It was then that Luc realised it was a woman’s voice, a little soft, probably a gentle and kind person.


    “Good.” Luc replied and stepped aside to lean against the wall.


    In a few clicks, the door opened.


    Luc was so excited that when she looked up and saw the somewhat familiar face, she was shocked.


    “What do you look like?”


    The woman standing in front of her with a brick in her hand is none other than Senona, whom she has not seen for some time.


    The lock had just broken, and Senona’s forehead was still dripping with sweat, her skin white and mmy, her long hair hanging over her shoulders, still looking like the white lotus flower she is.


    This description, not in a derogatory sense.


    Luc had mixed feelings, she had even called Senona a slut before, she never dreamed she would cross paths with Senona.


    Senona was also a little surprised, as her eyes widened slightly and she shouted: “Luc?


    Luc nodded, she knew a little of what Senona had been through and Allyce said Senona had reformed.


    In this situation, he couldn’t care less and said with some urgency: “Let’s not talk about it, untie the rope for me first”.


    “Good”.


    Senona didn’t hold back either and began to untie Luc’s rope.


    The rope was tied rather tightly and it took Senona some effort to untie it.


    The two men ran down the stairs.


    It is an old block house without a lift.


    Luc asks Senona as she runs: “Give me your phone.


    His mobile phone had been taken by two kidnappers who did not know where it had ended up.


    Senona held out the phone to Luc and said: “I had called the police before I came.


    Luc picked up the phone and said, “Thank you”.


    He then pressed the number backwards, but there was no response.


    She called twice in a row but no one answered and she was very anxious.


    The only number he can recite is Allyce’s, plus that of Neto and his family.


    The police don’t know when they wille, and although Senona has called the police, they have to go through the process and won’t be back so quickly, so she has to contact the others first.


    Allyce’s call was made as soon as it was made.


    There was some noise at their end.


    “Hello, who is it?”


    “It’s me, Luc.


    “Luc?” Allyce’s tone couldn’t hide her surprise, “Luc, where are you, how are you now, are you okay?”


    Does Allyce know that something happened to her too?


    “I’m at …” Luc has no idea where this is.


    Senona, who had stepped aside, brought her phone closer and gave a very detailed list of addresses.


    Luc looks at Senona with suspicion, howe she knows this ce so well!


    Senona saw what I was thinking and said: “I was thinking ofing back recently and asked the agent to help me find a house, but I didn’t expect to be ripped off by a fake agent who found me such an old and dpidated neighbourhood.


    “Then why did youe knocking on the door?”


    “Yesterday I came to see the house and saw the flower pot, I thought it was someone’s joke, plus I was in a bad mood after being cheated, so I had no intention of worrying, but it was always on my mind, so I came early this morning.”


    Senona speaks frankly, not as if she is lying.


    Luc didn’t care about this, she was old for Senona anyway, and she was in her debt.


    Allyce, on the other side, heard Senona’s voice and was a little surprised: “Senona?


    Senona smiled: “It’s me”.


    At that moment, a man’s middle voice came from the floor below: “There they are!


    “Run!”


    Luc was the first to react, pulling Senona with her and quickly running upstairs.


    Senona pressed hard on the phone, which was still switched on, and Luc said urgently, “Allyce, find a way to contact Neto …”.


    Needless to say, I had to save my strength to escape.


    Each floor is a house, with no corridors or windows, and it is impossible to jump out of the windows and run away if you want to.


    Until, that is, they ran to the roof of the top floor.


    The area is very old, with several water tanks installed on the roofs of the top floors.


    It was cloudy again and the wind was blowing with bitter cold gusts.


    Luc’s heart felt like it was about to burst out of her chest, and her and Senona’s hands were sped tightly together, both tense.


    The man who went up was Gervasio.


    His face was dark, so it looked like he had been “ying” all night before.


    When he reached the rooftop, he locked the door and, seeing that Luc and Senona had nowhere to run, he smirked and his face rxed slightly.


    “Yoo-hoo! You’re not running anymore? Keep running, why don’t you run?”


    Gervase’s gaze shifted to Senona’s face and immediately revealed a salivating look.


    Senona is a bit of a “bimbo” in appearance, the kind of soft-looking white girl that many men prefer.


    “Me, here to save you, and a little beauty too!” Gervase stared at Senona, his eyes alight.


    Luc stepped forward and stopped Senona behind her.


    He opened his mouth to speak, trying to distract Gervasio.


    “Do you really think that by capturing me you can lure Marco here? And even if you do, will you be able to kill him?”


    “It’s none of your business whether hees or not, and anyway, neither of you wille back alive!”


    Gervasio looked at Luc with a scornful face, knowing Luc’s small mind very well.


    “It’s better to die sooner thanter, so why don’t we have a good time together.” He said while shaking his back, nasty enough to make people sick.


    Luc squeezed Senona’s hand without moving, then averted her gaze to a stretch of iron pipe not far away.


    Senona would have understood and returned the squeeze in silence.


    Luc moves to the side and then walks straight towards Gervasio.


    Gervase frowned slightly, confused by his sudden movement.


    Luc walked up and pped Gervasio in the face.


    Then he cursed harshly: “You rascal!”


    He hit it hard, with a clear, loud sound, and his hand was still a little numb afterwards.


    Gervase froze for a moment before reacting to the fact that Luc had run over and hit herself.


    “Fuck!”


    She exploded, stepped forward and grabbed Luc by the hair, throwing her to the floor with a thud, her voice almosting out of her teeth: “Bitch! How dare you hit me!”


    The ground was cold and hard, but Luc was dressed in thick clothes and the fall only hurt but did not break her skin anywhere.


    “Why wouldn’t I dare, I’m not afraid of you!” She endured the pain in her body and continued talking to Gervase with the intention of diverting his attention.


    Senona, for her part, seized the opportunity to reach the iron pipe.


    “Damn it! If Horatio hadn’t stopped me, I would have caught you.


    He said vulgar words as he unbuckled his belt.
