Tom Cat breaks through the dimensional wall

Chapter 175 Egyptian Archaeological Invitation

Da Vinci looked at the big cat rushing out of the refrigerator with a confused face. Seeing Tom walk out the door, leaving a pile of delicious food on the ground, he seemed to be a little bit unable to recover.

He looked at the dishes on the ground and looked inside the refrigerator.

After closing the refrigerator door, Da Vinci ordered as before: "Bring a bowl of cart noodles."

The refrigerator did not respond.

Da Vinci scratched his head, opened the refrigerator and found that no more dishes were coming out.

After closing the refrigerator door, Da Vinci shouted again: "Cart noodles!"

The refrigerator still did not move.

Seeing this, Da Vinci shrugged and said: "Okay, it seems to be broken, then I will continue to study it myself."

On the other side, Tom ran towards the center of District 13 angrily.

While running, it also took the time to look at the surrounding environment.

The District 13 in this world is a little different from the District 13 in the original animation in its memory, but this is understandable, after all, the world and the location of the foundation have changed.

In fact, Tang Mu didn't care whether he came to District 13 or not.

Because there are not many things that can interest Tang Mu here.

Whether it is the organization that specializes in international crimes in the original work.

Or the organization that investigates extraordinary events mentioned by Cao Dahua when he went to buy breakfast some time ago, Tang Mu didn't care much.

It was mainly because Xiaoyu was very interested in secret organizations like District 13. Tang Mu had nothing to do, so he came to accompany her to have a look.

But now, while running towards the central area and looking around, Tang Mu made some unexpected discoveries.

Although he had heard Cao Dahua say before that the main responsibility of District 13 in this world is to investigate various extraordinary events.

But Tang Mu didn't expect at first that this new organization that had just been established had actually achieved a lot of results.

Tang Mu ran all the way and saw many supernatural creatures that are more familiar in the main world, or call them unconfirmed organisms, or UMA.

It just took a quick glance and found a lot of familiar things.

For example, Bigfoot, Yeti, Changbai Mountain Wild Man, Giant Squid, Mothman, Mongolian Death Worm and so on.

However, these things only roughly collected a preliminary intelligence.

Many of them are also marked with [Unconfirmed and To Be Investigated].

Tom guessed that these pending investigation projects should eventually fall on the members of the action team.

Jackie Chan was brought to District 13 by Black, most likely to let Jackie Chan do related work.

With Jackie Chan's personality, he probably wouldn't agree.

After all, these are just unconfirmed creatures, not archaeological actions related to history.

If archaeological actions are used as bait, Jackie Chan may still cooperate with them.

It's just that Jackie Chan doesn't want to cooperate, but Tom thinks this is a good opportunity to improve Jackie Chan's reputation.

If you want Jackie Chan to become the world's number one explorer, the most basic one is to frequently carry out deep exploration activities.

It's not enough to have Tom write a book to help promote it, it just allows more people on Earth to know Jackie Chan.

In order to become the recognized world's number one explorer, Jackie Chan's prestige must be pushed up with more legendary adventures.

Whenever other people think of Jackie Chan, those adventure stories will naturally pop up in their minds.

At this time, Jackie Chan's world number one title is considered stable.

It must be difficult for others to become the number one explorer.

But Jackie Chan has Tang Mu to help with publicity. As long as he ventures to more places, it will be a piece of cake for him to become the world's number one.

Before, Tang Mu was still worried about where to find a place for Jackie Chan to take risks.

Now that there is an international organization as big as District 13 to do intelligence work, things will be much easier.

This is also a pleasant surprise.

At least this trip was not in vain.

Looking at the group of staff beside him busy sorting out various materials and collecting information from all over the world for screening and summarization, the mood that was a little depressed just now instantly improved a lot.

Shuttled through District 13, Tang Mu had already seen Jackie Chan and Xiaoyu.

In the central area of ​​District 13, there were computers facing outwards arranged in a circle, and many civil servants from District 13 were working there.

Jackie Chan, Blake, and a middle-aged Chinese man were standing there talking about something.

Xiaoyu, who abandoned Tom and acted alone, hid not far away and eavesdropped on Jackie Chan and his friends' conversation.

After seeing Xiaoyu, Tom was so angry that he put his hands on his hips.

It was so unfair. This guy ran away without saying a word, causing it to install high-tech machines there, and the spatula was fried with sparks.

A good cat was almost exhausted to death.

But now is not the time to settle accounts with Xiaoyu.

Tom also wants to know about the conversation between Blake and Jackie Chan.

For the side quest, Tom and Blake are on the same front on this matter.

Even if Jackie Chan really doesn't want to join District 13, he must let him investigate those extraordinary events.

If Jackie Chan is really reluctant to investigate unconfirmed creatures, you can try to find a few archaeological-related things from the archives of District 13 and give them to him.

Anyway, it doesn't matter what, as long as there is something to do.

How much money Tom can earn from side quests is closely related to the number and quality of adventures he has experienced.

Jackie Chan really wanted to do it, but Tang Mu couldn't let him do it. He had to push him hard.

On the other side, Jackie Chan, who had clearly been arranged by a cat, was still silly and happy, talking to the person introduced by Blake.

"This is Director Hu Lianghu from our Thirteenth District. He is a particularly powerful naturalist and an expert we specially invited from Pingjing. He is responsible for intelligence screening and coordination."

"After our people collect information about extraordinary events from all over the world, they will send it to Director Hu and the others for preliminary screening and sorting."

"After confirming that the intelligence has a certain degree of authenticity, members of the action team will be dispatched to the local area to conduct on-the-spot investigations. After the preliminary investigation, the authenticity of the intelligence can be judged."

"Once it is confirmed to be true, an in-depth investigation will be conducted, and then Director Hu and other experts from our 13th District will decide how to manage the extraordinary incident."

"Jackie Chan, we are very confident in your abilities. You have both the strong operational capabilities of the action team members and the profound knowledge of experts and scholars. With the addition of talents like you, we will be able to carry out our work better."

While Blake introduced the basic work procedures of District 13 to Jackie Chan, he also continued to persuade Jackie Chan to join them.

Faced with Blake's renewed solicitation, Jackie Chan did not respond.

He doesn't really want to get involved in these incidents. This is undoubtedly a trouble for him.

But this did not prevent Jackie Chan and Director Hu from having a pleasant chat.

After all, Jackie Chan always thought that he was just an archaeologist.

As a scholar, I naturally respect those who possess knowledge.

He respected experts and scholars with real talents and knowledge like Director Hu very much.

It's one thing to join District 13 or not, but it's another thing to talk to knowledgeable people.

So although Jackie Chan didn't talk to Blake anymore, he had a pretty good chat with Director Hu.

"Director Hu, look at this. Is this the legendary water monkey?"

Although the Thirteenth District is an international organization, generally speaking, it is still dominated by China.

It's just that the organization in District 13 has special characteristics, so it placed its base in Xiangjiang, which is also a special place.

Even so, the talents in these thirteen districts really come from all over the world, and not all of them are from Xiangjiang.

For example, the comrade who is communicating with Director Hu Liang now is a native of Pingjing.

Hearing his subordinates talking that work matters were more important, Hu Liang stopped talking to Jackie Chan for the time being and put his head over to look at the computer screen. He then motioned to his colleague to turn a few more pages. After looking at it for a while, he was speechless.

"Don't think anything is water monkey, these are not water monkeys. The first one is monkey-shaped algae, and the second one is obviously a group of people wearing monkey clothes."

"The third one I know is that a group of people are seizing on the popularity to make money there. They are obviously digging landscape ponds, but they suddenly said that they are catching water monkeys. They have been in the local newspaper for several months, and they have not even caught a single monkey hair. arrive."

"The ones in the back are sea hares, flying monkeys, and three-toed sloths. You can't recognize them. You guys have to go back to university to study again. The Japanese stuff in the back is also fake. I only saw it last year. It's just a piece of wood. "

"This is a bullfrog, this is a bat cub, they are not water monkeys anyway."

Director Hu shook his head and sighed: "It's true that everything can become a water monkey."

"Okay. I know Director Hu, and I will dismiss all the information about the water monkey."

The colleague nodded and dismissed the documents.

While rejecting it, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's strange. Many unconfirmed life forms have been confirmed, but why are the sighting reports of water monkeys kept being rejected? Is it possible that there can be savages in the world, but there is no water? monkey?"

Looks like another poor young man being tortured by water monkeys.

It's strange to say.

Other more outrageous unconfirmed life forms have the possibility of real existence, but for such a simple water monkey, there is no clue to its real existence.

Unfortunately, its related rumors are still widely spread, and some information can be collected from time to time.

Not only Director Hu and the others, but also the entire civilian staff in District 13 have a special affection for this water monkey.

No matter what these people in District 13 think.

After watching their work in full, Jackie Chan had a clearer understanding of District 13.

If he hadn't been more interested in archeology, he might have joined District 13.

At least for now, the work in District 13 is quite interesting.

Blake on the side waited and observed for a long time. After seeing Jackie Chan's expression, he smiled and asked: "How about it? Why don't you join us and give it a try?"

Hearing this, Jackie Chan hesitated for a while, and finally shook his head and refused.

"We haven't seen you for six years, but you are still as stubborn as ever."

Black really didn't expect that even after he had put in so much effort, Jackie Chan still didn't waver at all, which really made him feel helpless.

After thinking about it, Black said to Director Hu Liang: "Didn't you collect some intelligence from Egypt recently? Show that to Jackie Chan."

Blake is in charge of operations and Director Hu is in charge of intelligence. The two sides are considered equal.

Blake didn't know much about intelligence, so Director Hu had to do it.

Blake only knew that Jackie Chan was more interested in archaeology.

In that case, let's cooperate with Jackie Chan on archaeology-related tasks.

In this way, he shouldn't refuse again, right?

Blake thought so, and this was his last effort to keep Jackie Chan.

If this can't keep Jackie Chan, an old friend, then he has no other way.

Director Hu responded and turned to operate the computer behind him.

It didn't take long to retrieve a file from it.

After opening the file, Director Hu motioned Jackie Chan to take a look.

When Blake mentioned Egypt, Jackie Chan's archaeological DNA moved.

Seeing Director Hu's greeting, he didn't hesitate at all and leaned over directly, looking at the document and the photos in it carefully.

"This style of jewelry is really the style of ancient Egypt..."

Jackie Chan touched his chin and looked at the photos in the document carefully.

As he turned the document, Jackie Chan suddenly saw that the jewelry with a large red gem was broken.

There was a big crack on the ruby.

From the angle of the photo, it can even be seen that the ruby ​​is hollow inside!

After reading the text in the document carefully, Jackie Chan roughly figured out the origin of this ruby ​​jewelry.

This was picked up by an American in the desert of Thebes, Egypt. The original plan was to send it to the UK for auction, but an accident occurred as soon as it arrived in Cairo.

The ruby, which was originally in good condition, suddenly cracked, and a beetle with a strong bite force emerged from it.

Because of the beetle bite, the American was very angry and killed the beetle.

Originally, he wanted to pick it up and observe the body, but it was taken away by a white cat raised in the hotel.

But relying on his previous memory, this person still drew the appearance of the beetle.

This year, he can run around Egypt alone again.

He must have a certain understanding of Egypt.

It is precisely because of his certain understanding that he wrote down his guess at the end of this article.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar word, Jackie Chan raised his eyebrows with interest: "Scarab?"

"Yes, it is the scarab. Although there is no photo of the scarab, only a hand-drawn draft, this incident has been verified, and the man did not lie."

The chair under Director Hu's buttocks can rotate.

He obviously guessed what Jackie Chan wanted to ask, and before Jackie Chan asked, he turned the chair and spoke to Jackie Chan.

Blake on the side saw that Jackie Chan was indeed interested, so he said: "We in District 13 want to investigate the situation of the scarab and confirm whether this scarab in the ancient Egyptian legend really exists. Do you want to go with us?"

To be honest, Jackie Chan wanted to go a little.

But compared to this, it seems more complicated to be involved with an official organization like District 13, and it is very likely to affect the normal life in the future.

After weighing the pros and cons, Jackie Chan felt a little regretful, but still shook his head.

Seeing this, Blake didn't know what to say, so he could only nod and stop forcing.

"In that case, I'll send someone to take you back first."

The cooperation was not reached, but the two sides are still old friends after all. It's just one thing, and it won't affect the relationship between the two sides.

Seeing that Jackie Chan and his friends had finished their conversation, they were ready to leave.

Tang Mu, who had been hiding and listening for a long time, ran to Xiaoyu and called Xiaoyu to leave quietly together.

Now if they go out and are discovered by Jackie Chan, there is no point except being scolded.

Tang Mu and Xiaoyu didn't want to be scolded by Jackie Chan.

Anyway, they have heard what they want to hear. Since Jackie Chan and his friends are leaving, Jackie Chan and Xiaoyu will naturally not stay.

Before Jackie Chan and his friends left, Tang Mu and Xiaoyu had already taken the stairs and left District 13.

After leaving District 13 and returning to the surface, the two did not stop, took a taxi, and went to the antique shop at Wan Chai Pier.

Back at the antique shop, Tom, Xiaoyu and the cat acted as if nothing had happened, as if they had never sneaked into District 13.

The two little guys whistled to show their harmlessness.

Hearing the noise at the door, the old man who was sitting behind the counter, reading the newspaper and chewing garlic, raised his head.

Seeing that it was Xiaoyu and Tom who came back, he looked behind them again, but didn't see Jackie Chan, so he asked curiously: "Hey, where's A-Long? Didn't you go to the airport to pick him up?"

Xiaoyu pretended to be nothing, walked into the antique shop with Tom, picked up a feather duster to remove the dust from the antique goods on the shelf.

At the same time, he answered the old man without looking back: "Uncle Long was picked up by an old friend of his, and he asked us to come back first."

"A-Long's friend? Which friend of his?"

The old man was a little confused. Although Jackie Chan knew a lot of people, he didn't have many true friends, and the old man knew most of them.

I don't remember any of them were also in Hong Kong.

Xiaoyu didn't reply. At this moment, the door of the antique shop was pushed open again. With the ringing of the welcome bell, Jackie Chan and Blake walked in from outside.

Because they hadn't seen each other for a long time, out of courtesy, since they were already in Hong Kong, Blake must come to visit his father.

Seeing the person at the door, the father was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly realized: "Ah, it turned out to be you."

"Dad, long time no see."

Blake forced a smile and greeted his dad.

Jackie Chan first focused his attention on Xiaoyu and Tangmu.

Seeing Xiaoyu and Tangmu cleaning the store, he felt very relieved.

They actually went home obediently without any trouble, which was really touching.

I didn't know that Xiaoyu and the others had just come out of District 13. Jackie Chan rarely saw the naughty Tangmu finally obeyed, and he was really moved to tears.

This is really not easy.

They have returned home, and Xiaoyu and Tangmu are rarely obedient.

Jackie Chan turned to look at Blake and apologized: "I'm sorry, Blake, it seems that I can't help you, but I can recommend some Egyptian experts to you. I probably won't go to Egypt in the near future."

Just as he finished speaking, the old man at the counter seemed to remember something, took out a letter from under the counter, and said to Jackie Chan: "Oh, by the way, there is one more thing!"

"Aaron, someone sent you a letter through the World Archaeology Magazine. They said that they read your paper on ancient Egyptian and were very interested in your knowledge. They wanted to invite you to Egypt."

Jackie Chan: "..."

Blake: "It seems that you really won't go to Egypt in the near future, Jackie Chan."
