Chapter 48

There was this decently priced Japanese ramen shop near the Osaka Museum. They had lunch there.

After finishing their ramen, they were heading to the bus station when Egbert’s phone suddenly rang.

Eileen, who was walking ahead, turned around upon hearing the sound.

Egbert pulled out his phone and saw that the call was from an unknown number. It was a phone provided by the TV crew, which only had a few guests’ numbers saved. Any calls from other people didn’t show names.

Egbert pressed the answer key and put the phone to his ear.

“Hello, who’s this? A gentle female voice came from the other end, Is this Mr. Reed? This is Aurora.”

Upon hearing the name, Egbert frowned slightly.

Standing across from him, Eileen curiously asked, “Who is it? Aurora?” Egbert didn’t answer, but asked the woman on the phone, “What’s up?”

Aurora on the other end of the line sounded a bit upset, Well, Hubery and I had our phones stolen yesterday, and we reported it to the police. Today, the police contacted us, saying they’ve caught the thief, but neither Hubery nor I speak Japanese well, and we’re having trouble communicating with them. The program crew said it was our problem and didn’t provide a translator for us. So I thought of you, Mr. Reed. I remember you speak Japanese well, could you come and help us? Please!

Hearing this, Egben’s face became even grimmer

Eileen was standing across from him, her hands clasped together, still pressing. Is it Aurora?”

Egbert put down his phone and said. “Yes, it’s her.”

Eileen was taken aback for a moment, then turned and said. Then you guys chat” After that, she was about to head for the bus station.

But her wrist was suddenly grabbed by Egbert. She turned around only to find a phone thrust into her hand, and Egbert moved in front of her, saying, “You take it.

“For me?” Eileen looked dumbfounded holding the phone.

Hesitantly, she put the phone to her ear: “Hello?”
