Crash, the muzzle of the robber's gun was pointed squarely at the little girl.
An immediate tension seized the hearts of everyone present.
"Brother robber, it's just a little girl, she's no threat," Lin Hai quickly spoke up, his tone as calm as possible.
The robber, upon seeing it was a young girl, lowered his gun.
Criminals often unconsciously tense up during the commission of a crime, a tension that is involuntary, often not even fully perceived by the perpetrator themselves.
Lin Hai had a very thorough understanding of this psychology.
Because from the moment a person is born and begins to think, no matter how beastly they are, they are bound by something called a conscience. Whenever they do something wrong, they become incredibly uneasy. It's just that stronger individuals can suppress this feeling of unease, but that doesn't mean they can erase their conscience.
The ball rolled to Lin Hai's feet.
"Uncle, could you please return the ball to me?"
