Chapter 827: Chapter 488: Isn’t This Change of Heart a Bit Too Quick?_2
"I know that the armies at that time caused some trouble for the local residents..."
"So, I hope most of this treasure can be used to improve the lives of the locals, and I will also establish a charity fund to compensate the descendants of those who suffered in the war..."
Touched by these words, Cheryl Suweton said,
"Chika, you are really very kind, truly! I don’t regret taking on your commission at all. Let’s work together and do this right!"
Sean Knight sneered secretly; he didn’t believe a single radical of what HarudaTomoko said!
These words could only deceive Cheryl Suweton, a member of the Royal Family who only knew about treasure hunting and was somewhat idealistic.
Seeing that her words had the desired effect, HarudaTomoko bowed slightly and said,
"This is what I should do. Although my great grandfather was a firm anti-war activist and my grandfather and father have also been working in this area, the evils of militarism at that time were too many, and what we do is extremely trivial..."
"Alright, let’s talk about the preparations next." After a long explication by HarudaTomoko, she moved on to the main topic:
"We won’t bring food and drink; my classmate will prepare that for us when we get there."
"Basic weapons are not necessary either; in that state, my classmate has enough power to deter anyone with bad intentions.
"We only need to prepare for the treasure hunt, equipment and tools and the like. You are the professionals in this, so I won’t say more. The vehicles are also ready. Later, we will leave by car, two brand-new off-road vehicles, which should be enough for us to use."
"Then let’s prepare ourselves." Sean said after HarudaTomoko finished speaking and waved his hand:
"Following our own plans, let’s purchase some items we might need in the jungle."
Cheryl Suweton and Sean Knight stood up together and said,
"Okay, then we..."
She looked at HarudaTomoko.
"There’s a big supermarket and a specialty store right next to this hotel. We’ll set off in two hours."
After the meeting, Cheryl Suweton, arm in arm with Sean, left the hotel and went to the nearby supermarket.
"What are you planning to buy?" Cheryl Suweton was actually ready, she mainly wanted to see what Sean would buy.
"Just some random stuff; actually, I have almost everything in my bag." Sean truly bought things at random.
There were many local specialties here, but Sean wasn’t very fond of them. He casually picked up some portable quick meals and tools, just for show, and then headed to the adjacent off-road equipment store.
The items here ignited Sean’s curiosity and interest.
Some locally produced antiscolic powder, snake antidote, protective clothing, and so on, Sean bought quite a bit.
To Sean’s surprise, the sales guide’s English was not as lackluster as the taxi drivers in the hotel; it was quite authentic and the presentation was very professional, which made Sean appreciate the difference in professionalism.
With a big bag of items, he returned to the hotel room. The two of them organized their things. Sean placed some equipment into his spatial realm and took some out to put in his backpack just for show.
After waiting a while, Cheryl knocked and entered Sean’s room. When she saw him idly looking out the window, she wrapped her arms around his waist from behind and her hands mischievously roamed over him.
"You really can’t get enough, can you?" Sean said, laughing as he pulled her around to face him, "Haven’t I punished you enough? You need it even now?"
"Who told you to leave for so long?" Cheryl was nowhere near as weak as she was when pleading the night before, continuously teasing Sean. Sean, of course, was more than willing to satisfy her requests, and soon, the air was filled with the scent of pheromones.
Because they had to get ready to leave, Sean quickened the pace. Even so, by the time they finished, Cheryl was almost limp as a noodle.
If Sean hadn’t infused her with some energy for a rapid recovery, today’s journey would’ve likely been delayed.
However, when the two of them appeared side by side in front of the car, HarudaTomoko instantly sensed something amiss.
She was very sensitive to certain scents!
No way, no way? Were these two really... that into playing around?
But seeing how noticeably better Cheryl’s complexion was, her skin rosy and without the coarse pores typical of white Westerners, obviously due to plenty of indulgence, HarudaTomoko couldn’t help but feel envious.
"Sean and I will ride in one car," Cheryl declared assertively.
Thus, Lincoln Harrington drove one car with Sean and Cheryl, while Elijah Hastings drove another with Douglas Cooper, followed by HarudaTomoko.
Because the destination was still far and there was navigation for direct travel, the two cars did not stick too closely together.
Not long after leaving New Delhi, the wide highway started to narrow, and strange things began to appear on the road.
A herd of cattle and sheep was normal enough and even a donkey cart now and then wasn’t unusual.
After all, Sean and the others had spent time in Xinjiang’s west, where the sky was vast, and cattle and sheep were the true masters, strolling leisurely on the road without minding the vehicles.
But that was in the deserted countryside, tens to hundreds of kilometers from the city. Now, the metropolis had barely been left behind and it was already like this?
Since everyone was well-travelled, they didn’t rush and just ambled along leisurely, taking the opportunity to observe the local culture and customs.
There were women wearing Sari and carrying baskets on their heads, as well as dark brown children playing noisily and many people didn’t wear shoes, a fact which Sean found remarkable.
