A group of armed police suddenly appeared in the room, surrounding all of them, with the dark muzzles pointing at their heads.
Father and the uncles began to stir, and in an instant, the room was in chaos.
Luo Tong was scared stiff, standing motionless on the spot, watching this scene unfold. Her father and uncles were pinned to the ground, their hands twisted behind their backs, a pair of shiny handcuffs tightly binding them.
They struggled like trapped beasts, roared, but eventually succumbed to the police's authority.
They were taken away one by one, leaving in a disheveled rush, with Father unable to even look at her.
As he was stepping out the door, Father paused briefly, didn't turn his head, and said to her, "Go find your uncle! From now on, I may not be able to take care of you anymore."
The room fell silent, and the police comforted her, saying it was over.
