Chapter 24: Something Big Has Happened

It was early morning when he arrived in Benghazi. After Gao Yang got off the plane, he felt a little chill and couldn't help but have a cold war.

The temperature in Benghazi in January was also over ten degrees, but in the early morning, that is, around ten degrees, I got used to the high temperatures on the Sudan grasslands. The temperature at ten degrees was a bit too low for him.

After following Morgan into a real hotel, Gao Yang was finally able to lie on a real bed and have a good sleep, but Gao Yang couldn't sleep for too long. By noon, he was invited by Bob to Morgan's room.

When he saw Morgan, Gao Yang felt that Morgan didn't look like a person in his sixties. Morgan, like him, experienced a highly tense escape, and then took a long flight together to get here. However, Gao Yang was still in a sluggish manner, while Morgan was energetic.

Gao Yang sat opposite Morgan. After Gao Yang sat down, Morgan took out a stack of banknotes, placed them on the table, then pushed them to Gao Yang, and said with a smile: "This is six thousand dollars, and I still owe you 94,000 yuan. Sorry, I don't have much cash on me. Obviously you can't accept checks and transfers, but please don't worry, after you return to China, you just need to give me a call, and I will transfer the remaining money to your account, and I will pay the handling fee."

Looking at the stack of banknotes on the table, Gao Yang was stunned. He looked at Morgan and said, "Mr. Morgan, I don't understand what you mean."

Morgan spread his hands and said, "I said, as long as you send me to Maracal, I will pay you a hundred thousand dollars. I am a person who keeps my word, you did it, so now is the time for me to fulfill my promise."

Gao Yang then remembered that Morgan did say such things at that time, but he didn't take Morgan's words seriously at all, but he didn't expect Morgan to really fulfill his promise.

Gao Yang thought about it, put the banknotes on the table in his pocket, and said sincerely: "That's enough, Mr. Morgan, I didn't plan to ask for your money. Well, now I do need money, so I accept these, but the rest should be exempted. I didn't do anything. If it weren't for you, Professor Buck and others wouldn't be able to get to Maracal, and you took me out of Sultan, so, I think we'll just be even."

Morgan shook his head and said, "I like your attitude towards money. It's high, but I don't like your attitude towards business. Friendship is friendship, business is business. I proposed to hire, but you didn't object, and finally escorted me to Maracal. In this way, our business has been completed, so it's natural for me to pay. We must have a contract spirit. Also, maybe you think saving a stranger from the guns of a group of people is nothing, but to me, Bob and I are saved. From a point of view, 100,000 US dollars seems to be a little less. However, the same thing is, friendship is friendship, business is business, you take the money, and then I owe you a favor."

Hearing Morgan's words, Gao Yang nodded and said, "Well, Mr. Morgan, I can only thank you for your generosity."

Morgan waved his hand and laughed, "Okay, young man, Benghazi is not a big city or a world of flowery things, but for someone who has been on the grassland for three years, you must want to go out and go, buy clothes, and then have some fun. The most important thing is to find a good restaurant to have a big meal. I think you must be crazy hungry, right? I'm so sorry, I really want to invite you to the first big meal to return to the civilized world, but unfortunately, I have to go out right away."

As Morgan spoke, Bob shook his eyes and said, "Hey, brother, you have a lot of money now. Don't you want to invite me to have fun?"

Gao Yang smiled, stood up and shook hands with Morgan, then turned to Bob and said, "Let's go, no matter what you want to do, I'll treat you."

The hotel lobby provides currency exchange services. After exchanging US dollars for some dinars, Gao Yang and Bob walked out of the hotel and walked in the downtown area of ​​Benghazi. Gao Yang felt like a different life. Looking at the crowded streets, Gao Yang couldn't help but sigh: "I always thought I would never come back."

Bob shrugged and said, "Don't think too much, what you should do now is to celebrate, but first of all your changes in clothes and shoes, you look funny now."

Gao Yang also felt a little cold on his body. He agreed with Bob and found a shopping mall and bought a set of clothes from inside to outside. However, Gao Yang did not buy new shoes. Instead, he bought jeans specially to make the clothes fit more boots.

After a fresh look, Gao Yang and Bob began to discuss where to go. Both agreed to go to eat and have a drink, but it was a bit difficult to go where to go.

Looking at the shops and restaurants on the street, no one knew where to go. At this time, Bob said, "I have a very good suggestion. How about we go to eat Chinese cuisine?"

"It's very good, but is there a Huaxia Hotel there? We haven't seen it all the way."

Bob looked around, then looked at his watch, and said, "This is my first time abroad. I want to walk around and see. It's still early, so why don't we look for it while we are walking?"

Gao Yang had no objection, so he walked with Bob. The two of them slowly walked to a small street. There were very few pedestrians. Looking at the empty street, Gao Yang suddenly remembered something.

"Hi Bob, your dad said that the situation in Libya is not stable now, so let's not go too far."

Bob said indifferently: "You saw it just now. It doesn't look unstable here. Will you go shopping in the mall when you are about to fight? I'll see that there is nothing wrong with the people in the mall."

Just as Bob finished speaking, a large number of people suddenly surged out of the empty streets, and countless people gathered from alleys and from houses facing the streets, then held flags and shouted slogans loudly, looking very angry, heading in the same direction.

Gao Yang and Bob were stunned, and then they both said "Fake."

"I take back what I said just now. Something big happened here, so we have to leave quickly."

Gao Yang pulled Bob back a few steps and whispered: "Sound it a little bit, wait for them to pass, and then we go in the opposite direction. You don't want to go to a place where they gather, right? When you get to a place with few people, we will hurry back to the hotel."

Bob nodded and whispered: "It's so unlucky, I have to wait for them to pass us before leaving."

Gao Yang and Bob were not moving, just standing by the wall, motionless under the gaze of countless people. At this time, Gao Yang was afraid that he would be attacked by those obviously angry guys because he was a foreigner. He was better, but Bob's blonde hair was so eye-catching that he was a Westerner at first glance.

Fortunately, Gao Yang and the others were just eye-catching, but no one came forward to say anything or do it. After finally waiting for the street to become empty again, Gao Yang wiped a cold sweat and said, "Go away quickly, hurry up."

They ran quickly in the opposite direction of the crowd for a long time. Gao Yang and the others encountered four more crowds along the way. Fortunately, they all passed by the crowd without any danger. But what made Gao Yang depressed was that the directions of these gatherings seemed to be inconsistent, so Gao Yang didn't know where to go to to be safe.

The worst thing is that Gao Yang and the others were lost and traveling around the streets and alleys of Benghazi. They had been wandering around for a long time and didn't know where they were. But they had been meeting people gathering on a large scale. It was impossible for them to find a taxi.

Once again, he met a team of about a hundred people. Gao Yang pulled Bob's clothes and whispered: "Follow them, otherwise we won't think of going out for a day."

Although he thought Gao Yang's proposal was risky, Bob had no other way, so Gao Yang and Bob followed the people from afar, wanting to return to the main street.

Gao Yang soon realized that his proposal was not very clever. The team they followed was getting bigger and bigger. Gao Yang looked behind him and was even more shocked. More people rushed out from behind him. Now Gao Yang and the others have become part of a large group of people.

Gao Yang pulled Bob's sleeve and whispered, the two began to slowly lean towards the edge of the crowd. When they reached the edge of the crowd, they walked out of the labyrinth alley. A wide road appeared in front of them, but the road was now occupied by angry people.

Back on the road, Gao Yang pulled Bob, and the two of them started trotting. At this time, they didn't care about the southeast, west and north, and just wanted to leave the angry crowd as soon as possible.

Gao Yang and Bob tried not to attract other people's attention, walked carefully along the side of the road, and walked a long way. When they saw that they had reached the periphery of the crowd and were about to leave, Bob suddenly pulled Gao Yang and stood there.

"What's wrong? Why don't you leave quickly."

When Gao Yang asked anxiously, he saw Bob's face pale. He pulled Gao Yang hard, and then whispered: "Look at the back of you, there is a Chinese hotel there."

Gao Yang was angry and anxious and whispered: "You don't want to eat now, are you?"

"Next to the hotel gate, two people took out guns. What should I do?"
