Explanation:
The Alchemist is a novel written by Paulo Coelho. It features a boy named Santiago who travels in search of a treasure.
Every time Santiago sleeps under a sycamore tree, he has the same dream: a child tells him to go and find treasure at the foot of the Egyptian pyramids. Santiago tells a fortune teller about this dream, and she encourages him to go to Egypt. He takes her at her word and heads towards Egypt.
This story is not true because the elapsed time between 9:00 pm and 4:00 am is five hours. The author also says the words "must've" which do not indicate an exact answer. I hope this helps!
