The boss and Old Two immediately pressed themselves against the wall, tense as could be. Even though they held guns, their hands and feet trembled.

Gu Fan was now sweating profusely. It didn't matter what had just happened, who was shouting, or who fired the gun.
The darkness all around felt terrifying, and everyone feared something dangerous could be silently approaching in the shadows.
Initially, everyone was still, creating a very quiet environment. They couldn't help but take a few steps, making some slight noise.
