Scorpion knew their situation was bleak.
Considering the strict security outside, she wasn't sure if they could actually escape.
Yan Ling saw her hesitation, squatted down, and said, "Don't dawdle, we need to split up! I'll go out and buy you some time, and you work on taking down all these walls. I got a rough idea of the area when we came in. We can regroup here."
Seeing Yan Ling gesture the route on the ground, Scorpion instantly figured out the plan.
Yan Ling wasn't directly trying to transport the children out but was planning to hide them temporarily in a safer manner.
When the time is right, they could move them out.
Indeed this was a brilliant plan!
Otherwise, it would have been impossible to transport so many children in a trash can at once!
Scorpion calculated the rough distance. If Yan Ling could delay the guards for her, even if she had to put in extra effort here, she could certainly move the children to safety temporarily.
