She rushes over and checks him. Dream already said there aren't any traps here, after all. "Mr... Damn, what's your name? Benjamin? Man, can you hear me?"
Imani rolls the man over... who then wakes with a start, “Ah! G-genies, everywhere! I knew they’d come for me! Oh it’s horrible!” He blinks, “I won’t lie, I imagined you as.... more terrifying.”
Assassin speaks in Imani’s mind, “Oh yeah, he was asleep. Forgot to mention that.”
She bursts out laughing (half from relief, half from surprise that he's alive) and responds to the artificer. "Yeah, I get that a lot. But I'm no genie- A little bird tells me that you put together a certain item for her? She's just outside if you'd like to speak to her."
He struggles up with Imani’s assistance. She gets a good look over him now in the light. Much like Amani Baz, it is clear that Benjamin is a native to Jerusalem. He wears simple clothes with a frock to protect them from whatever he’s working with. He has several bags under his eyes, clearly showing that he gets little sleep. His goggles have left little red rings on his forehead, which he straightens and then removes and tucks away. He smooths his now cowlicked hair and beard, “Yes, right, bird... Um...” He thinks for a moment, waking up, “Yes! The gun! That’s right. Come in, come in.” He snaps, “Mishlei.” As he says that, there is a soft whine from the hall. It seems the traps have turned off.

Sarai will cross the trap room confidently, coming into the workroom/office, still in human form. "Master Benjamin, a pleasure to see you again. You have had opportunity to do the work we discussed?"

“I have indeed.” Benjamin clears his face of sleep and looks around, before heading over to a nearby desk and picking up the gun. He walks back and presents it to you, “Exactly as agreed upon. I’ve modified the rifle to collect mana from the air and release it at will. It requires no reloading and should even pierce creatures with no physical form.” As Sarai looks over it, go ahead and make either an Arcana or Religion check.
Imani (who, as a Catholic school kid, you would think had proficiency in Religion checks...) glances at the star, as well.

You’re pretty sure that there are legends surrounding Solomon binding 72 demons into his service. Something to do with his wisdom. Nothing actually factual or tied to Christian canon though, so not your forte.

Benjamin nods politely, “Of course. However, there is the small matter of payment. You paid a third of the payment (100 gp), which leaves the other two thirds, trusting that the enchantment is to your liking.”

Huh, neat, looks like he inscribed a Star of David or something on the barrel. Must be like patriotic or something.

Mind you, it can still fire normal ammo. Those will be counted as magical damage as well and require no reloading.

“Uh,” Sarai looks at the Star of David. “Is this part of the enchantment?” she asks, showing it to Benjamin.

Benjamin nods, “Of course. The Seal of Solomon, slightly edited of course. It’s an old method of sealing things, but I think it reliable.”

With that, Imani and Sarai make their way back to the car. If Sarai would like to make a perception check as she leaves, she may do so.
In any case, you can easily make it back to the car.
What’s the plan, team?

Yes, yes she would. Always peering about, this one.
