Chapter 237 A Feast for the Eyes
Chapter 237 A Feast for the Eyes
The next morning at ten o'clock.
Royal Library.
Ye Haoxuan and Jack sat at the table by the window and chatted.
Jack looked around and his eyes fixed on a beautiful blonde woman.
While admiring it, he muttered to himself:
"This Ada, I can tell she's just a pretty face."
at the same time.
Ada had come up behind Jack.
When Ye Haoxuan was about to speak, Ada put her middle finger to her lips and made a soft "hush" sound.
Jack continued:
"He also said he was a disciple of Professor Bushi and had a deep understanding of the African terrain and desert environment."
"I think she's all show and no substance."
"What a fool of the Earl! Why did he ask her to cooperate with us?"
"Just me, Feiying, and you as my assistant..."
Hearing this, Ye Haoxuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Jack changed his tone and said, "Okay, I admit that you are better than me. I will be your assistant from now on."
Ye Haoxuan smiled and said, "Isn't this what you really think?"
Jack: "Of course not. You should know that before you came, I, Flying Eagle, had already made a name for myself in the West."
"There is nothing I, the Eagle, can't do."
"However, after what happened with the gem, I really admit that you are better than me."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about Ada."
"she......"
Ada couldn't help coughing.
She was worried that Jack would say something even worse.
She had a very happy chat with Ye Haoxuan in the bar yesterday.
The two chatted until very late before going back.
We also have a better understanding of each other.
Hearing a cough behind him, Jack turned around hurriedly.
When he saw Ada standing behind him, he smiled awkwardly and said:
"I didn't say anything bad about you, I just, I just..."
Ada: "Just what? I'm just superficial, right?"
Jack swallowed hard, turned his head, looked at Ye Haoxuan, and whispered:
"Why didn't you remind me?"
Ye Haoxuan smiled and said, "I reminded you. I was winking at you. Didn't you understand?"
Jack thought for a moment and asked:
"Have it?"
Ye Haoxuan looked at Ada and said, "Ignore him and sit down first."
Ada gave Ye Haoxuan a smile and sat next to Ye Haoxuan.
"I'm not going to pay any attention to him."
"Luckily you're here, otherwise this journey would be very difficult."
"Forget it, let's get down to business."
Then he looked at Jack and asked:
"What do you know about the desert?"
Jack thought for a moment and said:
“A lot of sand.”
Ada shook her head and looked at Ye Haoxuan.
Ye Haoxuan said slowly:
"In fact, only a quarter of the Sahara Desert is covered by sand."
When Ada heard this, she couldn't help but frown.
Jack laughed and said, "Ah Xuan, please stop making a fool of yourself."
“How is it possible that only a quarter of the area is covered with sand?”
“That’s the Sahara Desert.”
Ada: "Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand."
"Ah Xuan is right."
Jack: "Then why are you frowning?"
Ada: "I didn't expect Xuan to understand all this."
"My expression is one of shock. If you can't even see that, how dare you say you've made a name for yourself in the West?"
Jack said somewhat depressedly:
"Okay, I'd better shut up."
Ada: "You should have shut up a long time ago."
"If you don't understand, don't speak. Just listen quietly."
"Ah Xuan, go on."
Ye Haoxuan: "The temperature in the desert can reach as high as 60 degrees Celsius during the day."
"At night, it can drop to minus five degrees Celsius."
"Therefore, the temperature difference between day and night is particularly large."
Jack couldn't help but interrupt:
"Isn't that so exaggerated?"
Ada: “That’s just an exaggeration.”
"If you don't understand, shut up."
"It hasn't rained in the Sahara Desert for years."
"Normally, if we don't eat anything and just drink water, we can survive for seven days."
"But if you don't drink water for two days, you'll die of dehydration."
At this point, Jack was seen looking through the documents she brought.
She couldn't help but ask:
"Are you listening to me?"
Jack looked up. "I'm looking at the pictures."
As he said that, he handed the folder to Ye Haoxuan.
Ye Haoxuan took it, Ada leaned over to take a look and said:
"That's the adjutant who led eighteen guards on the mission to hide the gold."
Jack also came over and asked:
"Which one?"
Ada pointed to a person in the photo and said, "This is it."
Jack: "From this point of view, the adjutant must have descendants, and they still live here."
Ye Haoxuan: "After counting on my fingers, the descendants of that adjutant are the grandson's generation."
In fact, Ye Haoxuan had already learned that Elsa, whom he met in Plaza de España, was the granddaughter of the adjutant of the Hans Kingdom.
He had watched "Operation Condor" countless times in his previous life and knew the plot like the back of his hand.
Jack nodded. "Yes, that's what I was going to say. Xuan, let's go visit him."
Ada: "It's no use. The Hans government has already sent people to investigate."
"In the end, nothing happened."
Jack: "The Hans government?"
“I only believe in myself.”
"Ah Xuan, what do you think?"
Ye Haoxuan: "Since you have made up your mind, let's go there."
Jack said happily: "You are worthy of being my best partner."
After saying this, he raised his eyebrows at Ada.
Ada snorted coldly, looked at Ye Haoxuan, and said:
"Since Xuan said so, then I support it."
Jack: "No, then you don't support me?"
Ada: "Why should I support you?"
Ye Haoxuan: "If she supports me, doesn't that mean she supports you as well?"
Jack: “That’s true.”
"Okay, today's geography lesson is over, let's go."
After saying this, he stood up.
Ada said hurriedly: "Wait a minute, we haven't solved the water problem yet."
Ye Haoxuan: "Don't worry, the water problem is not difficult."
Ada: “Okay.”
into the night.
Ye Haoxuan asked Jack to wait in the car and he went into Elsa's house alone.
Just like in the original book, the lights in Elsa's house came on a moment after he entered.
He hurriedly found a place to hide.
In the original book, Jack hid in the bathroom, and Elsa was in a hurry, so she rushed into the bathroom as soon as she came back.
After finishing, she was still changing clothes in the bathroom, and was seen by Jack.
Don't look at anything inappropriate.
He hadn't wanted to hide in the bathroom.
Instead, he wanted to hide in another room, wait for the two Middle Eastern men who had been following Elsa to perform a heroic rescue.
Who knew that after Elsa came back, she first came to the room where he was hiding, and was later forced to hide in the bathroom.
As soon as he entered the bathroom, Elsa rushed in.
After solving her urgent problem, Elsa even changed her clothes in front of him...
