Percy took it upon himself to drive away alone when he saw that. The other person stayed behind to watch over Pierre.

After Pierre was taken away, Johann left too.

Gordan and Leroy stood at the clinic's door, staring at each other in confusion.

"It's dawn. Can we go back now?" asked Leroy.

They could have left after dropping off Pierre at the clinic, but they were worried that someone might have heard the gunshots and called the police. If they went back before dawn, they might get caught by the cops.

Even though they were familiar with the surveillance cameras installed around the area, there was always the possibility of a slip-up. They would not be able to explain why they returned at around five o'clock in the morning.

Drinking? They did not smell like alcohol.

They just arrived? They already rented a house.

That was why they decided to wait here until dawn.

“I think so. I'll just tell them we went for a morning jog,” said Gordan. The excuse of going for a morning jog was a great idea. No one would suspect them if they were stopped by the police.

Most of them jogged alone in the morning. It was impossible to find a witness present at the scene.

The gunshots were heard after five in the morning. They always jogged at five on the dot. They could easily explain their alibi if they went back now.

They jogged back slowly.

Sure enough, a group of police officers had sealed off the area.

Fortunately, their rented house was across the street, so they were not affected by the blockade.

The police stopped them when they saw two men running toward them. "No entry," said the police officer.

"Sir, we're tenants here," Gordan replied with a smile on his face.

The police officer frowned. Tenants? He looked at the two men.

The man who did not speak earlier looked a little sleazy and shady. They could pass off as punks living in the area.
