In the end there was nothing they could do, the police had to go back early. They'd originally wanted to take the evidence back with them, but who knew something would go wrong halfway through. They stayed one night in the village, and it was precisely that night that it suddenly started snowing heavily in the mountains. They got trapped there.
When her two colleagues went to get the car and then tried to drive back, that's when the trouble started. She had no choice but to walk to meet up with them. It was at that moment that the thug behind her followed along, trying to do something to her. She was terrified out of her wits; if it hadn't been for Chen Haichang showing up, she really didn't know what she might have gone through.
