Chapter 565 They are here
The loudspeakers were still on the line to threaten Madeline and Thomas. Victims dragged to the
windows constantly. If Madeline refused to show up, they would take the fall.
At the same time, the clown-masked terrorists also live-streamed on the Internet. They made a
decision to broadcast how and why these people were executed.
The Internet was abuzz with lots of comments. Under the deliberate guidance of people with an
agenda, the public overwhelmingly demanded that Madeline and Noah step forward to satisfy these
terrorists' desire for vengeance and not allow innocent people to get killed for them.
People even began to condemn and agitate against Madeline, believing that people in the apartment
got killed because of her.
The massacre continued, and they shot inhumanely at every man they saw behind the door. The world
saw their cruelty, yet they didn't think they were evil. Instead, they blamed Madeline, who was also a
victim.
Madeline rushed to a room with Thomas. According to the footage captured by Jacob's remote-
controlled invisible robot, this room was where they were holding the hostages. Within ten seconds,
they would execute the thirty-odd people in there.
The Little Bee was also in position. It flew right into the mask and stung the terrorist in the eyes.
Soon Madeline heard the terrorist screaming from the outside. She and Thomas glanced at each other
and gave a signal. Thomas opened the door, and she burst in with silver wire wrapped around the
terrorist’s wrist.

She pulled the silver thread harder and the wrist was severed. The terrorist watched the scene in
horror, then crouched in disarray, covering his injured wrist and screaming.
Madeline was agile enough to kick the terrorist to the ground and snatch his gun. Thomas, on the other
hand, kept the Little Bee and found a thick rope in the room to tie up the wounded terrorist and drag
him to the window.
“Uncle, will you help me?” Thomas untied a man in his forties and asked him to help hang the clown-
masked terrorist outside the window.
The man was an honest worker but had been scared out of his mind. He could hardly get up. His hand
came loose while carrying the terrorist to the window. Then the terrorist whooshed down.
It almost brought down Thomas, who was tying the rope. Madeline acted quickly and pulled.
“Sorry, I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to.” The man hastily apologized, seeing that Madeline was carrying a
gun.
Madeline said calmly, “I’ll take you out, but only if you listen. We can only escape the massacre if we
are united. As you can see, they are a group of inhuman killing machines. No matter what, they are
unlikely to be kind to you. Even if you hand me over, you’ll die the same way. They had planned to
slaughter everyone in the apartment.”
"Mommy and I have come forward, but they still killed the hostage. Only we can save you." Thomas
understood Madeline's action and was afraid these people would betray them and hand them over to
the terrorists, so he hastily talked them through.
Madeline glanced at the people in the room. They were scared. She made a decision to lead them
outside after seeing that no shifty-eyed people were trying to stir things up.
Of course, she couldn’t trust them all. She could only protect Thomas when it was necessary.
It wasn't her fault. Those clown-masked terrorists wanted to give their perverted behavior a glorious
veneer of revenge and then pushed her out to take the blame. There was no way she would let them
get away with it.
"Go to the convenience store. There is a hidden bar. Let them hide inside and wait for help.” Jacob
commanded in earphones.
Madeline naturally did not object and immediately led the people to head there. Not far away came the
sound of the gun firing. The commotion made a lot of noise, which meant a head-to-head battle.
Thomas tilted his head to look at Madeline and said, “It’s daddy.”
The crowd was a little alarmed when they heard the sound of strafing, and many of the girls were so
frightened they screamed.
"Quiet!" Madeline couldn't help reprimand, but these people were too loud and didn’t listen to her.
“They’re here! They’re heading this way!” Someone screamed in panic, left the group and ran in the
other direction.
Others heard the footsteps and anxiously tried to flee like the man. Yet, most of them were afraid to do
so.
“Stay in the group, and come with me!" Madeline knocked on the earphones, signaling Jacob to give
her some advice.
Jacob suddenly tensed, “Run! They are after you from the northeast, southeast, and southwest."
As soon as the words fell, the sound of gunfire came from the direction the man had just run out,
sending the crowd into another uproar.
“Left up the stairs in front, turn right, then down the stairs and turn left, go straight…”
Madeline quickly led the crowd in the direction Jacob was leading, but the terrorists were surprisingly

her movement.
She felt a pang of chagrin.
"There are three people. It's difficult to handle, but it’s not all bad.” Jacob looked at the surveillance
camera and knew this couldn't be avoided. He had tried to hack the apartment surveillance cameras,
but surprisingly they had an expert. He needed time.
Moreover, the opponent tried to counter him and hack his lateral contact system.
Madeline kicked open a room and asked people to hide inside. She then stood at the door and fought
against the three people who followed her.
Thomas stood as a little guard behind the door.
The people who saw him showed no panic and fear at a very young age, and their hearts calmed down
a little. Quietly, they searched the room for tools rather than sit back and wait for death.
The sound of gunfire soon came from outside the door. Thomas clutched the only weapon in both
hands and kept praying in his heart for Madeline.
It’ll be fine, mommy has seen more brutal battles than this one, and she will be fine this time.
Outside the door, Madeline hid behind the wall. She constantly fired at the enemies, but their firepower
immediately neutralized the situation. She had no room to fight back.
The opponent was getting closer and closer. Madeline wanted to run away to attract their attention and
then buy time for Noah to come and rescue the child.
She just contacted Noah. He was two floors above, only five minutes to arrive.
Noah was indeed not far from Madeline. He even heard the sound of gunfire from downstairs. Yet, he,
Wayne, and Lex trapped by four clown-masked terrorists.
