“Okay. I promise you,” responded Harry with a nod.

Three-handed then intentionally lowered his voice. “To tell you the truth, the people who asked me to do it...”

The second Harry leaned in to hear him better, Three-handed shouted to everybody in the building, “Run, everyone! The police are here!”

Immediately, the casino was thrown into complete chaos, and the people inside scrambled like rats.

To the gamblers, there was nothing worse than getting caught in a casino.

Even though Three-handed tried to make a break for it amidst the chaos, Harry remained calm, for he had anticipated the man to try something like that.

“Guard the exits and make sure nobody leaves this building without my say-so,” commanded Harry.

With that, the five police officers Harry brought with him quickly removed their casual wear to reveal their uniforms underneath.

All those at the scene who saw the uniforms immediately turned pale.

When the crowd heard Three-handed, they knew that they had to get to the main exit as quickly as possible, but they never expected to find the law enforcers standing in their way.

Anxious, they then hurriedly tried to find another out.

Naturally, some of them even attempted to run past the officers.

However, all who tried eventually learned that it was unwise to do so. The police officers kicked anyone who got too close to them.

After realizing that it was impossible to get out through the main exit, the crowd hurried to the east door, only to find it blocked by a policeman as well.

They then moved to the west door and were blocked by yet another police officer.

In the end, the gamblers lost all hope of getting away scot-free, for they were sure that the law enforcers had blocked all exits.

After looking around, they discovered, to their dismay, that their assumption was correct.

The crowd had no choice but to accept the reality that they were trapped like a moth in a bath.

“Listen up! All of you! I'm not here to apprehend gamblers; I'm only here for Three-handed,” announced Harry. “All you have to do is get me the man, and I'll let you go.”

Suddenly, the desperate gamblers saw a glimmer of hope.

“Do you really mean it, Officer Hudson?” inquired someone in the crowd.

“Of course! I swear on my life! You have my word,” promised Harry.

Good! Immediately, the gamblers began to search for Three-handed.

“Where is he? If you know what's good for you, Three-handed, you better show yourself now!”

“This is your casino. You have to be responsible for our safety!”

“Yeah! Either you surrender yourself willingly, or we'll drag you out!”

Faced with such a large crowd, Three-handed had no choice but to reveal himself with a hardened face.

“I've got to say, Harry. I'm impressed. Now that I've shown myself, let these people go this instant,” ordered Three-handed.
