Chen Family defence plan
In the Chen family's back garden, near the tranquil rock pond, a somber scene unfolded as eighteen servants kneeled before the patriarch, his son Zi Chen, and his younger brother Baldie Chen stood with their heads bowed in shame.
"Why have you brought those 18 girls here?" thundered the patriarch, his voice dripping with fury. "I ordered you to confine them in the underground dark chambers. Do you realize the consequences of your actions? Who released them?"
Koti, with a bleeding face, dared to speak up. "Master Chen, a young man attacked me in the dark. I tried to fend him off, but he overpowered me. I even managed to wound him with my poison dagger. He should be dead by now. Please grant us another chance. We will capture him and extract the information about the girls' whereabouts through torture."
