Chapter 826: Chapter 488: This Flirting Happens a Bit Fast, Doesn’t It?

I must say, New Delhi is a magical city. Many people here seem to have an inexplicable self-confidence.

Haruda Tomoko seemed quite familiar with the place, as she led Sean Knight and the others to a reasonably authentic Western restaurant. The dining process was uneventful, but when it came time to pay, a manager came over and said:

"You’re from China, right? You can’t find such authentic Western food in China, can you?"

Alright, just this one sentence directly provoked some animosity.

Sean Knight and his group weren’t so petty. After giving a disdainful glance to the inexperienced manager, they left.

This was just a small interlude and didn’t really affect their mood. After all, they had seen too many oddities online, and encountering a few in real life wasn’t a big deal.

That night, returning to the hotel, Cheryl Suweton came to James Ross’s room, intending for a deeper exchange, when there was a knock at the door.

It was Haruda Tomoko.

Cheryl was slightly annoyed. Haruda Tomoko might be her employer, but that shouldn’t interfere with her personal life.

"I’m really sorry for disturbing you," said Haruda Tomoko, now dressed in a kimono, reverting to the reserved and courteous demeanor of a Japanese woman. She bowed deeply to the two of them, revealing a significant glimpse of her cleavage.

"Just say what you need to," Cheryl said, unable to lash out against someone with a smile on their face.

"After breakfast tomorrow morning, I hope we can all discuss our upcoming itinerary and plans."

"No problem," Cheryl agreed on behalf of James Ross, "Is there anything else?"

"That’s all, I won’t keep you two from resting." The daughter of spring bowed deeply again and backed out of the room with small steps.

This one was quite something.

That was all he had time to think before Cheryl’s affection enveloped him.

The next day after breakfast, Haruda Tomoko brought Sean Knight and the others to a small meeting room in the hotel.

Today Haruda Tomoko wore a smart outfit: a camouflage short sleeve, tapered workwear pants, and her hair tied up. Her expression was also more serious.

Seeing the starkly different attire from the day before, Sean Knight and the others were somewhat surprised.

She really knew how to switch it up!

Once everyone had arrived, she took the main seat without hesitation, and said:

"I’ve called everyone here today to discuss our upcoming itinerary and plans."

She turned on the projector, displaying a map of the southern part of India.

"We’ll set out from New Delhi, following the highway to reach the southern Hainash State. The heir of a former noble, now a son of a distinguished family there, was my classmate at Waseda University. Our target is located near that area."

"How large is the area?" Sean asked with a deep voice.

The map didn’t look big on the projector, but that was still a prince state of India. The circled area must cover at least 100,000 square kilometers, right?

Haruda Tomoko was interrupted by Sean’s question, a flash of displeasure in her eyes, but knowing that he was the main force of the treasure hunt this time, she refrained from getting angry. She looked down at the documents in her hand and said:

"The range is about 1,000 square kilometers..."

Sean didn’t respond, but Cheryl’s look clearly showed disbelief.

Elijah Hastings and the others also began to whisper among themselves.

That was indeed a vast area.

1,000 square kilometers meant an area with a radius of over thirty kilometers. How long would it take to find anything?

Although the last time they went to Belarus the area was also large, at least someone had scouted it before, and the terrain wasn’t complicated.

But India was different!

It was almost all jungle, comparable to the Amazonian journey they had undertaken.

Moreover, at least for the journey to the Amazon they had a guide and specific landmarks.

"Don’t worry, this time we’re not undertaking a carpet search. I have a map here with simple records and the key areas that need to be searched," Haruda interjected.

She hadn’t intended to disclose this, but now it seemed she had to reveal this piece of information, or else these people might not take up the task.

The reward was standard international practice, so Sean hadn’t inquired. Listening to her explanation, he simply chose to provisionally believe her and remained silent.

"In that prince state, my classmate has already agreed to provide us with a guide. In that region, we’ll get the best assistance possible."

As she said this, Haruda’s face broke into a smile. She believed that the advantage she had secured should be sufficient to satisfy them.

Upon hearing this news, Cheryl’s expression relaxed a bit, but James’s remained unchanged.

These things were all abstractions until they were seen and made use of.

Having been on treasure hunts for some time, James had learned that no matter what, the most trustworthy thing was himself, Elijah and his two friends, as well as the weapons in his spatial realm.

Even Cheryl had to come after these.

It wasn’t that he didn’t trust her, but rather that she tended to be impulsive, and it was clear that she had been coaxed into this mission by Haruda Tomoko.

Furthermore, considering Haruda Tomoko’s nationality BUFF, James was obliged to be cautious.

This was natural, and couldn’t be avoided.

"...Our primary objective this time is to find the remains of my great grandfather. Secondly, it’s the treasure that a military unit looted from India at that time," Haruda Tomoko said, her face filled with sorrow:
