After a day of fleeing, the sky darkened, and they found a relatively flat spot amidst the forest.
Having escaped all night and another day, everyone was stretched to their limits with exhaustion.
Mu Qiankun estimated that the police wouldn't arrive for a while, so he instructed everyone to rest for a bit.
He had planted explosives near their resting spot; if anyone approached, he would be alerted immediately.
This was the last batch of explosives, so after resting tonight, they would have to proceed at full speed the next day.
Once they crossed this mountain, they would not be far from the national border.
If everything went smoothly, they would reach it by tomorrow.
In truth, Mu Qiankun had been anxious these past days for a reason. On the other side, there was a long-term partner, who could colloquially be called a "middleman."
He bought drugs from locals and then acted as the intermediary to sell them to Mu Qiankun.
