"Do you think you can fool me so easily? Let's be clear, I am Daisy Ouyang, not Leo Ouyang." Daisy abruptly stopped laughing. She bent down and stared directly into Yakira's eyes. A starkly chilling atmosphere wildly encroached on the space around Yakira. She realized how terrifying and unrelenting the soldier before her was. Compared with Leo who just now tried to kill her, Daisy instilled in Yakira an intense fear of death.
"Daisy Ouyang, don't think I'll be afraid of you with a gun pointing to my head. Don't you forget that murder is against the law. Even though you are a colonel, you aren't above the law." Yakira was talking tough, but her trembling voice betrayed her pretense of fearlessness. As a result, her words sounded somewhat ridiculous.
"Against the law? Not exactly! You've killed someone too, right? Then why weren't you punished by the law? So the law is not omnipotent. So tell me, is it easier for me to simply shoot you here? Or should I send you to prison to spend the rest of your life?"
A dark intrigue arose in Daisy's eyes. She kept moving the gun gently against Yakira's forehead, challenging the limits of her mental capacity. Yakira was filled with horrid guesses of where she would be shot today.
Meanwhile, Edward raced all the way to the Ouyangs' house. He saw the familiar car parked outside and was finally relieved that Daisy had arrived here safely. This was more important to him than anything. He was hoping that he got here in time, so he exited the car before even parking it properly. He darted through the open doors which were probably left that way because of Daisy's fury. The whole mess did buy Edward some time. Luckily, the Ouyangs' house was not tightly guarded as his own. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to barge in so easily.
"Sister, please calm yourself down. Think about Justin. Think about Edward. Do you really want to leave them behind?" Brian was already covered in cold sweat at this moment, fearing that Daisy might lose control and allow the gun to go off. So he tried to get her back to her senses by bringing up the people she cared about the most.
