Chapter 70: Goodbye O'Connor
"Since you were able to get this iron box, which means that someone got it from Hamnata and brought it to Thebes, it is not necessary that if you find that person, you will believe that there will be a clue to Hamnata Tower. Li Wei said that although he also knew the path to Hamna Tower, he kept it a secret, anyway, after finding O'Connor, he could also know that he could complete his series of missions by the way, killing two birds with one stone.
"I'm right, I'm going to Thebes to find the little tin box seller. With that, Jonathan disappeared in front of Li Wei and Evelyn at a speed of one hundred meters and three seconds.
"Was Jonathan a member of the track and field club before, why haven't you seen him appear at the Olympics?" said Li Wei teasingly.
"It's also the first time I've known Jonathan can run that fast...... Evelyn said with a wry smile.
……
Three days later, outside the gates of Cairo prison......
"I've learned from the peddler's mouth that the tin box is something that flowed from here. Later, for Egyptian pounds, I heard from a caretaker that the owner of the tin box was a prisoner from England whose name was Okono. Jonathan said smugly to Levy and Evelyn, and he couldn't help but be happy at the thought that he was one step closer to the treasure.
"Welcome, don't stand, !!come in," a big fat man stood in the door and said to the three of them, no need for information, Li Wei knew that this big fat man was the warden of this prison just by guò Jonathan's mouth, and he was also a very money-hungry warden.
"Welcome to Cairo Prison, my home !!," said the warden as he walked in front of the three men as if he were a king out on patrol.
"Who did you say you were looking for?...... Yes, hard-boned Okono!" said the warden to himself.
"Hard-boned Okono?" Evelyn asked curiously.
"This guy knocked out four of my men when he came in. The warden replied as he walked.
"And what did he go to jail for?" Evelyn continued.
"I don't know exactly why, but I asked him once, and he said he was just having fun. The warden walked over to an iron cage and replied with a humorous look.
At this moment, the iron door in the cage was opened, and two prison guards walked out with a man whose hands were chained but who was strong in stature. The man was beaten in the back by one of the prison guards and fell to his knees in pain.
Li Wei didn't stand up for the first time just now because he received a reminder of the serial mission.
"The second part of the chain of missions: Assist Evelyn and Jonathan to go to Cairo Prison to convince O'Connor to go to Hamnata City with you has been completed!
"The third ring of the chain of missions has begun! The third ring: Avoiding the hanging of O'Connor. ”
"Piece of cake......" Li Wei said lightly in his heart.
"Your Excellency the Warden, this is an old friend of mine. I don't know what it takes to let him out, just open it. It was only then that Levy stepped forward to speak, and his words naturally caught O'Connor's attention.
"!! you weren't even dead!! I thought you were ......" O'Connor couldn't help but reminisce about catching up on Lai Wei when he first saw him, but his words were stopped by Lai Wei's eyes. Although O'Connor did not understand Ley's thoughts, as a former comrade-in-arms, he faithfully kept his mouth shut.
"That's the number!" said the warden with five fingers outstretched.
"Five hundred Egyptian pounds?" Jonathan guessed.
"Five hundred pounds!" said the warden Lion, with a wide mouth. Although it may not sound like a large amount, the value of the pound sterling in Asia and Africa at this time was very high, and 500 pounds was almost equal to the annual salary of a hundred Egyptian laborers.
"No problem!" Evelyn wanted to bargain, but Li Wei directly agreed.
"Lai, that's five hundred pounds!" Jonathan whispered to Li Wei from the side, he was afraid that Li Wei was a white wolf with empty gloves and wanted to fool the prison warden. Regarding Li Wei's identity as the owner of Cairo First Logistics Company, Evelyn and Jonathan, two siblings, don't know because Li Wei has been going to the museum for the past three years, and he usually doesn't show up at work, so even Jonathan, who is quite active outside, doesn't know Li Wei's identity.
"For just five hundred pounds, my pyramid logistics company can come up with it. Li Wei said proudly.
"Pyramid Logistics ?!!" Jonathan and the warden couldn't help but take a breath when they heard Li Wei's words. However, Evelyn looked at the two of them in confusion, as a first-generation otaku, although she had an adventurous spirit, she rarely stepped out of the museum.
"If I had known that you were a pyramid logistician, I would have shouted a higher price!! "The warden yelled in frustration.
"Hehehe......" Li Wei didn't speak, just took out a checkbook from his arms.
"Here are six hundred pounds, and the extra hundred pounds is the money for your drink. After filling in the numbers, Li Wei tore them off and handed them to the warden.
Although the warden was still remorseful, after accepting the check, he still honestly asked his men to release O'Connor.
"Hahaha! Li, long time no see!!" O'Connor, who was released, hugged Li Wei and said.
"Long time no see, O'Connor~ sir. Instead of disgusted by O'Connor's filth, Levy patted the latter on the back and quipped.
"What a chief is not a chief, now I am just a common man. O'Connor said.
"Hehehe...... Let's go! Wash your dust, and wash away your bad luck by the way. Li Wei said with a smile. For O'Connor's bold character, Li Wei made friends with him from the bottom of his heart, although he was just a plot character in a copy.
The two chatted as they walked, but they forgot about the two siblings who were following them. It's not that Evelyn and Jonathan are shy or whatever, Jonathan hasn't recovered from Richie's identity, and Evelyn is curious about the relationship between Dawn and O'Connor.
"Lai, are they ......?" Or O'Connor asked after turning around and realizing the two people who had been silently following behind.
"I almost forgot! They're friends I met here in Cairo. Meet my brother Jonathan, my sister Evelyn, and this is my old friend and comrade-in-arms, O'Connor. Levy patted O'Connor on the shoulder.
"Mr. O'Connor, take the liberty of asking, do you know how to get to Hamna Tower?" asked Jonathan, who had come back to his senses, nervously.
"Hamnata Tower?!Of course I'll go!, not just me, Lai will go!" O'Connor didn't understand Jonathan's question, but replied honestly.
"What??" Evelyn and Jonathan were a little surprised by O'Connor's answer, but Levy spoke without giving them a chance to think about it.
"O'Connor and I went to catch up...... Tomorrow you will pack your bags and wait for us at the port of Giza. With that, Levy pulled O'Connor, who was still confused, away. At the same time, Li Wei once again received a reminder of the serial mission.
"The third ring of the chain of quests: Avoiding the hanging of O'Connor has been completed!
"The fourth ring of the chain quest has been opened! The fourth ring: Get the octagonal key. ”
