Song Fan didn't stay in the small wooden house. She quickly grabbed an assault rifle and put on Santo's bulletproof vest. Sun Yu hadn't been gone long; if she was fast, there was still a chance she could survive.
Santo's place was close to the port. As Song Fan ran out, she heard someone calling her from behind.
"Song Fan! Song Fan! Come back!" Gu Chen, surrounded by several bodyguards, was running toward her.
The island's inhabitants hadn't yet realized what was happening. Most of the islanders and the mentally ill didn't resist, knowing they stood no chance against a regular army. The mercenaries, however, fought desperately, bearing the weight of their past crimes.
Song Fan didn't want Gu Chen to take any risks. She hurried back, but the distance was too great and the situation too chaotic. She saw a mercenary aiming at Gu Chen. She yelled, "Get down!" and lunged forward.
