Therefore, her skin would not be exposed to those pine needles, dry branches, and leaves. 2 At the moment, Jasmine had adapted to the darkness inside the valley. She could have used her mobile phone's torchlight, with its broken screen, to light up her surroundings, which could save her senergy.
Nevertheless, she was afraid that those culprits who had not given up on her might still be looking for her. Thus, she dared not turn on the torchlight.
She checked her phone for signals every once in a while. Then, she hid her mobile phone inside her windbreaker. She wrapped her head and mobile phone into her windbreaker to avoid the shine from the brightness of the light. 3 After exploring the valley for nearly two to three hours, Jasmine was, nonetheless, still physically very strong. However, her hand and face, which had been scratched by those branches repeatedly, were full of tiny red marks, and red veins were visibly seen.
Jasmine no longer cared about her pain. Her only desire was to find a way out from the mountain and stay alive no matter what.
