When Zhang Zian and the others entered the shop, the girl from earlier stayed outside the shop to watch the happenings. The old person wearing short sleeves covered the shop door and waved their hands at them, gesturing to them not be in a hurry to ask questions first.

Gao Ke and He He were worried. Although the old man and his sister had kind faces, nobody had the words ”I am a bad person” written on their faces. How could they know whether they had just left the wolf's den only to enter the tiger's?Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click visiting.

Zhang Zian wondered when Fina had come. Just now, when he had gone to rescue He He, he'd acted with Famous, because he knew that Fina could not lower itself to saving a woman who was not related to it and had gotten into trouble all by herself.

He thought that Fina had stayed with Galaxy and Pi. Unexpectedly, Fina, Galaxy, and Pi had all arrived here. He He and Gao Ke and the rest just could not see them.

In fact, the shop was quite close to the accident site, and they could still hear the noise of the accident site. The onlookers seemed to find that they had slipped away, and they were cursing a bit before they scattered.

The door was pushed open, and the girl from before came in with another local boy. She closed the door again, nodded to the old man, took off the robe covering her body, and threw it aside at will.

Under the long robe, her outfit was the same as Zhang Zian's and everyone else's, a combination of a polo shirt, sneakers, and jeans.

While they were at the door, Old Time Tea also leaped in. He had not managed to find Fina and the rest just now and had chased them by following their scents. He had found that Zhang Zian and the elfins' scents combined here.

The old man looked at the crowd with a sigh of relief and a smile. He said in English, ”Welcome, you all must be surprised. Take a rest first. I know you must have a lot of questions to ask, but it's safe now. Don't worry. I'll explain to you later. Sit down, please! Black tea, or coffee?”

Their ears were sore because of the loud commotion and speaking in Arabic just now, and now, hearing someone speak English, they felt a sense of closeness. Gao Ke and the others had made it to graduate school, so their English was certainly good. Zhang Zian's daily conversation in English was not a problem, and then there was Jack, who had traveled to many countries when he was a child.

Zhang Zian and the rest did have a lot of questions to ask, but the guests followed the rules of the host, and, affected by the old man's calmness, they gradually relaxed.

After going through that mess for so long, they were thirsty, and they found chairs to sit down, asking for the drinks they wanted.

After a few minutes, the young man and woman carried a tray out from inside, black tea and coffee arranged on it, and gave it out to Zhang Zian and the rest.

Zhang Zian had asked for black tea, and after taking a mouthful, he could not help but grin in secret. How sweet! Was the white sugar free of charge here?

Egyptians, men and women alike, were fond of sweets to the point where they did not like things that were not sweet. Most of the food and drinks were especially sweet, presumably because they felt that under the cover of their robes, nothing could be seen, so their figures did not matter, and they could do what they wanted.

After the young man and woman served their drinks, they stood next to the old man. The old man said, ”I'm called Lazart. These two are my daughter, Kate, and my son, Chris.”

Zhang Zian and the rest looked at each other. The young brother and sister's names… They did not sound local at all. They were very common European and American names.

Jack was a mixed-blood who had grown up in a foreign country. His parents' name choice wasn't surprising. But all three of them looked like very ordinary local people. Why was it that…
