"Hey, I want to go to the bathroom. Mr. Robertson, can we go to the bathroom together?"
Kane finished, and he was already holding Otis's arm and putting the other arm of Otis on his shoulder.
He tugged Otis toward the door.
Eugene heard the movement and opened the door.
"Hey, hey, I'm going to the bathroom with Mr. Robertson." Kane looked confused and kept giggling.
Eugene frowned as he pushed Kane away, "You're not worthy to touch Mr. Robertson. Get out of here! I'll take Mr. Robertson."
With that, Eugene stepped forward and helped Otis toward the bathroom.
While Otis was being held up by Eugene, he still felt dizzy and everything seemed to be spinning. Even his tongue was numb and he could barely finish a sentence.
Kane staggered after them shouting, "Wait for me, wait for me."
Joyce saw that they were all gone and finally had an opportunity. She hurriedly plugged the cable into Otis' phone and started to install the program.
Ten minutes. That would be all she needed.
She only hoped that Kane could hold them off for ten minutes.
She kept looking at the time, and even second seemed so frightening now.
Usually, a mere ten minutes felt like just a blink of the eyes, and now it felt like a year instead.
Soon, there were still two minutes left.
Outside the door, however, she could hear the commotion of Otis and the others returning.
She couldn't help but feel panic again. What should she do?
Should she stop now? After she had gone so far?
She didn’t want to give up, however.
Suddenly, an idea came to her and she shouted out toward the door.
"Kane, take care of Mr. Robertson!"
Her voice was so high that it could be heard clearly through the door.
