They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System

Chapter 317

Chapter 317: Morning, Officer

“Morning,” the man replied, narrowing his eyes. “Where you headed?”

“Lumna,” Abuchi said, pulling out a small wad of cash in foreign currency. “No questions. Just space in the back. For five people.”

The man raised an eyebrow. “Foreign cash, no questions… That’s suspicious.”

Abuchi smiled faintly. “It’s also profitable.”

The man paused, then gave a small shrug. “Fine. Where’s your crew?”

“They’re coming,” Abuchi replied, already turning away, eyes scanning the surroundings.

The man nodded but watched him carefully as Abuchi walked off and melted into the crowd.

Back at the corner, Abuchi rejoined the group. “He’s in. We need to move now before someone else shows up.”

Everyone tensed but nodded. It was time.

As they began walking, Nnenna moved ahead slightly, turning the corner first, and then froze.

She stopped so suddenly, Karen almost bumped into her. “What’s wrong?” she whispered.

Nnenna didn’t respond right away. Her eyes were locked on a man dressed in all black, one of the guards who had been chasing them since Marka. He was leaning casually against a cargo truck, deep in conversation with another man.

Her heart pounded in her chest.
