The scene shifts to another location.
The setting is the studio of a television station in the city.
The studio, not too large, is filled with people dressed in puppet costumes. Apart from these individuals, everyone else without a puppet costume is tied up.
Although this scene seems somewhat like a movie set, unfortunately, it is not. These people, despite being dressed in cute puppet costumes, are all genuine terrorists, as evidenced by the guns they are holding in their hands.
Among them, the person dressed in a frog puppet costume is in charge of the entire scene.
At this moment, a person wearing a white rabbit puppet costume leans over.
"Leader, this place has already been surrounded by the police. Is it really okay to continue like this?" they ask quietly to the person dressed in the frog puppet costume.
"Don't worry, we have dozens of hostages here. Even if the police are guarding outside, they dare not make any reckless move. Besides, even if they do, we would be aware of it," the person in the frog puppet costume replies calmly.
"But even so, it will be very difficult for us to escape in the end..."
"Oh... are you hesitating at a time like this?"
"No..."
Although their expressions are concealed by the puppet costumes they're wearing, it is obvious that the person in the white rabbit puppet costume is starting to waver.
Seeing their subordinate looking hesitant, the person dressed in the frog puppet costume speaks up.
"So, what is our name?"
Suddenly changing the topic, the person asks in a very serious tone.
"We are the Empire Liberation Front."
Despite their previous hesitance, the person in the white rabbit puppet costume answers decisively without any hesitation.
"And what is our ultimate goal?"
"As the name suggests, to liberate this country."
The questioning continues.
"So, what is the reason for our actions?"
"To liberate this country and subsequently free the suffering masses of this country."
"Since you know all this, there is no need for unnecessary words. We have no way back. From the moment we started our actions, and even for the sake of our compatriots who are also deeply persecuted by this country, we have no reason to stop."
"Understood."
The response is firm, filled with unwavering conviction.
"Moreover, we have the assistance of that great individual now. That person will guide us to victory. The light of miracles will surely illuminate this land once again."
Upon hearing the leader's words, the person in the white rabbit puppet costume actively responds.
"Indeed, as long as that great person is with us, we will surely succeed."
However, the person in the frog puppet costume suddenly hesitates to speak.
"And..."
"And?"
"If we want to succeed, sacrifices will inevitably be made. We have already prepared ourselves for this before taking action."
"Indeed, but is this situation really going according to plan?"
At this point, another topic is brought up.
"Ah, of course, it is going exactly as planned. So far, our objectives have been achieved very well, even better than expected."
"Achieved?"
The purpose was to be surrounded by the police. Suddenly saying this, it's no wonder the other party felt strange.
In response, the person dressed in a frog puppet costume just said coldly,
"Because in the end, we were just bait to lure the enemy over to our side from the beginning."
