The Kindergarten Ransom
William flung his megaphone and shouted, "You monster! I don't care what pain drove you here. You shouldn't have murdered innocent children! You're surrounded. Surrender now!"
He resorted to force when he couldn't reason with me, but I showed no panic.
"Officer, I rigged the kindergarten with explosives. If you want to avoid a massacre, hurry. I swear, if you find my daughter, I'll surrender immediately. I won't harm anyone else."
…
The moment William heard of the explosives, he almost fainted. Nobody was going to gamble on a madwoman's bluff. Even if they shot Lilian, she might set it off at the very last moment.
