Kidnapped Arc (1)

An hour earlier, Lino arrived ahead in front of Diane's house. He saw he had no way to go in through the gate. He looked around. The street was a bit dim, the neighborhood was quiet, and no one was on the road. So he parked his car beside the wall and climbed on it, then hurriedly jumped in the courtyard.

Lino pulled a gun from his back and held it in one hand. His other hand reached for the doorknob, it's locked. He pulled a penlight from his pocket, turned it on and bit it between his teeth. The light focused on the knob. His fingers clipped a hook-like master key from his pocket and inserted it in and unlocked the door with ease. The whole house was dark.
