The three students were very good at dealing with emergencies. When Ye Jian asked them to stay, they didn't say anything immediately. Instead, they retreated to the pier and left this place first.
Now was not the time to talk about other things. It was dangerous to stay for another minute. It was not too late to retreat first!
The four of them cooperated well. Coupled with the fact that the containers were tall and big, the four of them managed to avoid being discovered a few times when they heard footsteps.
It took less than 15 minutes to walk from the pier to the freighter. It took more than half of the time to return to the pier from the freighter. The evasion was quite smooth. If not, it would have taken more time.
