him straight in the eye mockingly. “You have the gun, so just shoot me. Why aren’t you taking action? Do you need me to show you how it’s done?”Winnie grasped Harold’s wrist, guiding it so that the barrel of the gun was pointed directly at her stomach.Her lips curved up as she continued, “Just like how I fired at you earlier, shoot me until your bullets run out.”The icy coldness of the metal gun barrel seeped through the fabric of Winnie’s clothing, pressing firmly against her body.She shivered in response, feeling the chill of the metal even against the protection of the bulletproof vest that she wore.James had given her instructions to buy some time, so she was left with no other choice but to humor Harold’s requests.However, Winnie had heard three long and one short cricket sound.She knew this was Greta’s unique signal.Greta is here to help me. It had been around thirty seconds since she heard that signal, but Greta had yet to take action.Winnie realized that Greta was unable to act as she and Harold were standing in the wrong positions.Harold had crouched down when he approached Winnie and told her to look at his face.She had completely blocked Harold’s body.Right now, Greta was hiding somewhere behind them.Greta might be a skilled sniper, but Winnie doubted whether she could shoot Harold accurately given the current circumstances and situation.That was why she had lured Harold into shooting her and gripped his wrist.She tugged him backward, changing their positions effectively.Harold had no idea why Winnie did that, but he knew she was up to something.In fact, his fingers reacted faster than his brain.

The cartridge was empty.The second Winnie and Harold swapped places, Greta took aim at Harold with her sniper rifle and pulled the trigger.However, Greta had no idea Harold’s subordinate would suddenly rush out to help Harold.As a result, the bullet intended for Harold hit him.The subordinate’s body slumped heavily onto Harold, and a sickening sensation of warmth began to seep into Harold’s clothing as the man’s blood trickled into his collar. At that moment, Harold belatedly understood what had happened.He glowered at Winnie. “You tricked me again!”Winnie was wearing a bulletproof vest, so her skin remained unscathed. Nevertheless, the force of the bullets was still enough to leave her feeling sore and uncomfortable.She wasn’t bleeding, but the pain was so excruciating that it was difficult for her to stand up straight.Harold actually realized Winnie had donned a bulletproof vest the moment he fired the first shot, but
