The man seems to look familiar, and it doesn’t take long for you to realize why. You whisper to Joe. “I think this is the same man we saw earlier today, the one who met Leo!” Joe nods. “Yes, it could be, especially since that rucksack looks like the one that the lion tamer was carrying.” Suddenly, the man glances in their direction. Fortunately, he turns away a few moments later, seemingly satisfied that no one is nearby. He then reaches for the rucksack and removes something from it.”
