Chapter 448: Chapter 320: Some People Always Need to Face Reality_2

Although Jaxon was speaking gibberish, everyone, including Sophie, understood what he meant.

This bastard wants to save his life by giving his girlfriend to Sean Knight!

"Even if you could, is it even fucking human to do that?!" Douglas Cooper burst out, kicking Jaxon into a tumbling gourd.

In fact, all three of them knew that Sean wouldn’t really throw him into the sea. Sean could not do it, nor could they.

They just wanted to frighten him, but instead, they frightened out his true nature, which revealed that he has no bottom line!

Sophie looked at Jaxon in disbelief, mumbling:

"Jaxon... that can’t be true, you’re just joking, right? That’s not what you really mean, is it?"

Her voice was already filled with sadness.

"Fine, break a leg, and throw him out." Sean glanced at Jaxon with disgust. "I don’t want to see him again."

He had no more thoughts about Jaxon.

"No, please, no!" Jaxon cried as Douglas dragged him away.

Sophie wanted to chase after him but ultimately stayed.

It truly hurt her heart to hear Jaxon say such things.

"Miss, it’s best to buy a plane ticket and go back to your country. It’s not suitable for you to stay here." Sean advised Sophie:

"Stay away from your boyfriend in the future. You never know what might happen to you two. He might even sell you. Just think about what he did when you were captured."

At first, Sophie thought Sean and his crew were the bad guys. Even when her boyfriend tried to frame Sean, she still believed so.

But now, it seems that Sean is at least better than her boyfriend.

Sean left the courtyard. It’s up to Sophie to take his advice or not. As a fellow compatriot, seeing her being betrayed and feeling sorry for her, he had to say something.

The incident in New York made Sean understand that once you are out in the world, not all people will be more affectionate just because they’re compatriots.

In fact, people like Jaxon were the ones who needed to be guarded against.

With a suppressed scream, Jaxon’s story came to an end.

Back at the hotel, Elijah Hastings, Lincoln Harrington, and Douglas Cooper went to their rooms to discuss financial matters while Sean picked up the brown old diary and looked through it, eventually tossing it aside.

He couldn’t understand it.

However, Sean was not discouraged. The next day, he took many pictures of the contents of the Japanese notebook and sent Elijah and the others out to find people to translate each photo.

Since Jakarta is the capital, it’s not hard to find such translators. As long as the money is enough, the few dozen pages of the diary could be translated in just half a day.

Sean connected all the translated content and found that it was indeed an army diary.

The owner of the diary was a Japanese military policeman named Heiya Kouji, who mainly followed General Yamashita Fumio’s army command on various battles around Southeast Asia.

Moreover, the events recorded were from 1944 to 1945 when Japan surrendered, not very long.

Sean counted carefully and found that there were about fifteen places involved.

Checking the electronic map on his mobile phone, he found that five of the fifteen places were in cities, and the other ten were in mountainous or rainforest areas, not easy to find.

However, Sean had no intention of searching for them now.

Since Heiya Kouji didn’t explain what the fifteen places were for, all that could be concluded was that General Yamashita Fumio stayed in each spot for more than ten days. So it’s possible that these are the locations.

After jotting down the fifteen locations, Sean threw the diary into his spatial realm. It was indeed infuriating to be called away from the world of warmth for such a vague thing.

However, he didn’t plan to return there anytime soon. Since he was already out, he might as well take a good look around, at least to ensure the island’s planning was well-managed.

The next day, Sean got up as usual, planning to wander around Jakarta and then go to Oliver Brooks’ place for dinner.

Douglas Cooper came to report:

"That Jaxon Kingsley is gone. Oh, and his girlfriend, Sophie King, bought a plane ticket back home. I didn’t see Jaxon with her."

"Don’t worry about him." Sean Knight waved his hand, saying that kind of scum might be more disgusting, but in reality they didn’t have much ability. At most, they could be found by someone with ulterior motives. But they weren’t very useful.

Douglas Cooper only reported the situation. In Jakarta, he had already established some connections, and he could gather some intelligence. Although he couldn’t say that he completely controlled a comprehensive intelligence system, it was already quite good.

Sean Knight went to Oliver Brooks’ Courtyard and found Oliver Brooks drinking tea under a tree in the courtyard.

When Oliver saw Sean, he smiled and raised his teacup to gesture.

Although Oliver now had many friends, Sean was different - having gone through trials, he knew what kind of friends were precious.

After drinking tea at Oliver’s and having a meal, Sean went back to the hotel contentedly.

However, he had just returned when Oliver called.

After picking up the phone, Sean smiled and said:

"What’s the matter, Mr. Brooks? Did you miss me already that I just left? Shall I come again tomorrow?"

"But you really have to come tomorrow." Oliver said from the other side, "I have a ... friend who called and hopes to talk to you."

"Talk to me?" Sean asked curiously, "What does he want to talk to me about?"

"About that diary in your hands." Oliver said, "The other party is also a Treasure Hunter, named Caprio Parker, who is quite famous in Southeast Asia."

"Alright, let’s talk tomorrow." This kind of thing was within Sean’s expectations. If Jaxon Kingsley spread the news and no one paid attention, that would be a surprise.

After all, it was a treasure clue related to Yamashita Fumio. Even if it’s fake, it would definitely arouse the attention of many people.

After all, even a fake pirate treasure would make many treasure hunters flock to it!

The second day, Sean Knight took Elijah Hastings to Oliver Brooks’ house to meet Caprio Parker. Douglas Cooper and Lincoln Harrington went to gather intelligence about Caprio.

What surprised Sean was that when he and Elijah arrived at Oliver’s courtyard, Caprio hadn’t arrived yet.

Since Oliver was there, Sean didn’t care much and chatted with him while eating dried fish.

It wasn’t until nearly noon that a car sound was heard.

Sean turned his head and saw two luxury cars stopping outside. Four black-clothed bodyguards got out of the car in the back. They stood guard facing outwards, only after looking around cautiously.

At this time, a short middle-aged man got out of the first car, looking about thirty-five, wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts with sunglasses on.

After getting out of the car, the man came to the College Gate.

Immediately, a bodyguard came to push the door open for him. Once inside, Caprio sat at the table and crossed his legs, showing no concern for others. A hand reached out immediately, and someone handed over a prepared cigar and lit it for him respectfully.

Caprio took a deep breath and held it, intending to blow smoke towards Sean Knight.

Sean stared at him - if he dared to blow smoke at him, Sean wouldn’t mind giving him a slap!

Caprio, stunned by Sean’s stare, instantly forgot about the cigarette in his mouth and coughed a few times, his face turning red!

Just when Sean thought he would get angry, Caprio suddenly threw away his cigar and laughed loudly:

"I never thought it would be true, after all - how could someone willing to be so cruel to their fellow countrymen be a mere kid? My information is wrong! I’m so sorry, I am!"

Surprisingly, he spoke quite standard Mandarin!

Sean was taken aback by how quickly Caprio changed his demeanor.

He almost thought there was something wrong with his nerves.

However, it’s fine as it is now since it allows for smooth communication without misunderstandings.

Oliver Brooks spoke:

"Mr. Caprio, doing this puts me in a difficult position."
