ophie hurriedly asked, "Benefactor! I was wondering i you could lend me your cell phone? I want to call ome but I've already lost my cell phone...”
ophie was telling him that she wanted to use his cell hone to call home, but in fact, she was actually trying ) make use of this opportunity to get Charlie's phone umber.
was the information age now. As long as she could et hold of the other party’s phone number, then ophie would be able to easily find out the other arty's identity and all the information about him
len.
this was the case, then she would be able to find her enefactor after returning home.
harlie could see right through the other party's tricks nd he sneered as he said, "I'm sorry but my cell
hone is my personal belonging so I can’t simply lend i to you."
fter he was done speaking, Charlie reached out his and and took out a cell phone from one of the ninjas' odies before he threw it directly at Sophie. "Here. Use lis and call your family instead. Tell them your >cation and ask them to send someone here to pick oth of you up as soon as possible." ophie was stunned and she did not reach out her hand to receive the cell phone from Charlie, so the cell phone fell directly onto her lap. Sophie was extremely disappointed but she could not show it. So, she simply picked up the cell phone and said gratefully, "Thank you, benefactor!"
After that, Charlie continued rifling through the ninja's body and he found a very thin wallet. Aside from the person's identification card, there were only five pieces of ten thousand yen bills inside the wallet. 3
Using the current exchange rate, ten thousand yen could be exchanged for about six hundred dollars.
Although fifty thousand yen was not much, it would b e sufficient for them to find a place to stay as they waited for a few hours for their family to pick them up. 2
Otherwise, the fifty thousand yen would also be sufficient for both of them to take the train back to Tokyo too. 3
So, Charlie handed the money over to Sophie before he said, "You can take this money and quickly leave with your brother then."
Sophie could not help but hesitate a little deep inside.
She really did not want to leave just like this.
