A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

They had been stuck in the alley for what seemed like hours. The alley was definitely a dead-end and their eyes could detect no possible way in which Jack could have escaped!

But they'd checked the cul-de-sac inside and out, and found nothing, not even his shadow.

"Captain Liu, there's nothing more that we can do to find Jack. Shall we pull back now?" A young policeman suggested from the far corner.

Captain Liu was suddenly pissed off, and he shouted out, "Are you the captain now? Don't you know that he has an innocent child with him? For the sake of the child, we can't pull back the team! Even if we don't catch him, we must at least save the child from him!"

The young man lowered his head to hide his annoyance. He explained carefully, "I don't think he would hurt the child. Maybe this child is very important to him, since he has been carrying her around."

Even in the dark, he had sensed Jack's caring attitude towards the child, when he had opened the trash bin and seen them. It was something in Jack's eyes. He showed such care and consideration for the child.

It was as if she were his own daughter.

"What do you know? It is always difficult to guess what motivates criminals. That's why we need to plan for the worst situation!" Captain Liu scolded him.

The young man spoke again, carefully trying to get the team to move on, "Captain Liu, we have turned this place upside down, and found no sign of the criminal. What if he has escaped long ago? That means we have lost the best moment..."

"Find him! Search again!" Captain Liu didn't want to believe that he had been eluded, and he was not willing to give up like this!

He was so close to catch the criminal! The former master of the Gu clan, also the ex-CEO of the Gu Consortium!

It would mean a promotion for him!

How could he yield to the reality and watch Jack slide away? No, he couldn't, and he would not give up on it!

"Yes, Captain Liu," his order was obeyed.

The young officer again went to the trash can, while others searched for the fugitive. No trace of him was found. Making a show of searching the bin, he thoughtfully added some extra trash from the ground to cover Jack who looked up at him with trusting eyes. 'It must be agony to be folded up into that small space, ' the young man wondered.

Suspicious now, Captain Liu furrowed his eyebrows tightly, and stared at the green trash bin that had just been checked, "Are you sure you have examined the trash bin?"
