Chapter 009 Common Purpose
O'Connor quickly shook his head, insisting that he would not take the blame, "I swear, I absolutely did not say such a thing"
Jonathan was momentarily taken aback and pushed Wang Bo once more with force, yet Wang Bo remained completely unmoved
"What are you doing?" At that moment, a voice came from behind Evelyn.
The prison warden's expression suddenly changed; he was, of course, fully aware.
No, you know.
O'Connor, unable to express his distress, turned to Wang Bo and said, "How did you end up here? Who rescued you?"
I am not as important as you, no one is here to rescue me out
Wang Bowen remained completely still
A voice suddenly sounded beside O'Connor. When O'Connor turned his head, he saw none other than the warden of Cairo Prison.
O'Connor : ... ...
Such a person who dares to treat him like a fool must not be tolerated at all
What do you want to say?" He then took a step back and said with a fierce exterior but a timid interior.
"Why?" O'Connor asked
Jonathan could not help but look at Wang Bo, only to see a pair of eyes that seemed to smile yet were not quite smiling. Jonathan immediately averted his gaze, having confirmed through that look that this was someone he could not afford to provoke
"Because we have no money," Wang Bo said matter-of-factly
O'Connor asked in confusion, "What exactly are you playing at with this riddle?"
He thought it was nonsense and severely reprimanded his deputy.
If it were not for his busy schedule heading to Hamunata, needing the aide to maintain order in the prison, he would have unhesitatingly demoted the aide.
If necessary, the warden responded curtly
The short and stout man looked at Wang Bo with a serious expression, "Last night my adjutant informed me that a man escaped from my prison. I thought he would leave Cairo, yet I did not expect him to dare appear before me. You have quite a lot of nerve."
She is convinced that the two individuals have a relationship
Of course, it came out running, Wang Bo said naturally
Alright, then let's go together, but the expenses on the way will be covered by you. O'Connor stepped back and agreed to the two, after all, whether it is one sheep or two sheep, they will be released.
She suddenly turned around and saw her tour guide, Rick O'Connell
Laura responded, "In my opinion, that place is indeed very charming"
Is that so? Evelyn looked at Wang Bo and O'Connor with suspicion
I don't know. Evelyn is stubborn as a dead duck.
In response to Jonathan's questioning, Wang Bo candidly stated: "Yes, we do not know each other at all, however ..."
I advise you not to do this, Your Excellency the Warden, as it would make me very angry
Jonathan felt his face flush, but being thick-skinned, he quickly calmed down and fixed his gaze on Wang Bo, raising his vigilance to the utmost level
In an instant, the prison warden broke out in a sweat
"Do you know each other?" Evelyn and Jonathan were both very surprised
Alright, I can treat this matter as if I have not seen it. It is getting late, and we should set off.
O'Connor said helplessly: "Well, I admit that we have indeed met, but we only know each other superficially; he used to live across from me, in prison"
Evelyn quickly released Wang Bo's mouth and explained: "I don't know him at all"
"Indeed, it is I, O'Connor."
O'Connor felt a chill in his heart, his gaze passing over Evelyn and landing on Wang Bo, and he couldn't help but be greatly astonished, "It is you"
Even if it cannot be overturned, one should at least make the other party take a step back
Then you are ... ...
Jonathan immediately realized that although he was not a master of combat, he was a tall and strong man with considerable strength. The push he had just given, while he could not claim to have used all his strength, should have been sufficient to push someone away without any issue
"Yes, I am quite certain," Evelyn hurriedly said, "but he knows our destination"
Indeed
So, you want to take me back, Warden?
Evelyn said angrily: "So, it was you who told him about our plans to go there"
His aide informed him that the escaped prisoner successfully fled after breaking the iron chain
"No!" Evelyn shouted, stepping forward and quickly covering Wang Bo's mouth with her hand. She glanced around and whispered, "Do you want to say that name here?"
I do not recognize. " O'Connor decisively shook his head
Are you sure?" O'Connor said with a look of astonishment
Alright, let me make it more obvious, Ham...
However, it now seems that it is not some kind of fanciful tale
Laura couldn't help but let out a chuckle; she found Jonathan to be exceedingly amusing. Fortunately, she quickly realized that this was quite impolite, and thus stifled her laughter
Wang Bo said: "Miss Evelyn, Mr. Jonathan, although we do not know each other, we share the same destination, so I believe we should travel together and reflect upon one another."
I believe
I hit a dead end
Evelyn said warily, "I do not know what you are talking about"
Since we are not acquainted, then please step aside. Jonathan interrupted Wang Bo's words and pushed him away with his hand
However, in front of his own younger sister, he did not want to lose face
However, the shoulders still tremble slightly
Wang Bo shrugged helplessly, indicating that he was also unwilling.
O'Connor sighed and said, "Believe me, madam, that is not a charming place"
"Are you threatening me?" The warden's expression was grim; in his prison, it had been a long time since any inmate dared to speak to him in such a manner
"Yes, I am threatening you," Wang Bo nodded without hesitation. "I believe you should know how I escaped from prison"
This is a very threatening man
Wang Bo looked at the prison warden who had died due to greed, feeling no fear in his heart, his expression calm, as the continuous sunlight provided him with immense confidence
This is not acceptable
Wang Bo nodded and said, "Yes, I know much more than you do, Miss Evelyn"
"What about her, this beautiful lady? Is she going as well?" O'Connor noticed Laura
Do you think I would believe it? O'Connor does not believe it either; after all, it is a prison, not a welfare institution
"Then how would he know your name?" Evelyn was not so easily deceived
Laura smiled slightly, "This is something that any adventurer dreams of, and I am no exception."
If the two of you cannot help yourselves, it is best to go to the cabin on the ship, where there is a very soft large bed, rather than at the dock, which has a very adverse environment
O'Connor saw the expression on the warden's face and felt a jolt in his heart. He turned to Wang Bo and said, "Do you really want to go to that kind of hellish place with us"
The warden pondered for a long time; regardless of whether this matter was true or false, he decided not to pursue it for now. Everything would be centered around the treasure. Once he returned from the City of the Dead, he would properly deal with this audacious prisoner.
O'Connor looked bewildered at Evelyn and Wang Bo, seeing how close the two were, and couldn't help but feel a tinge of jealousy, as if his head were covered in green. His words carried a hint of incomprehensible jealousy.
The other party remained completely still
