'More than anything', he says and looks like he's not sure if he wants to hope or give up completely on hope itself. But, he said that he wants out, so out he's going to be taken. Oswald's never given much thought to freeing anyone because it's never happened to anyone he's particularly cared for.
Oswald is not a cold man; he merely knows that what's not his business is simply not his business. He's not keen on confrontation where it's not needed.
He doubts he'll have to worry about that here.
And so, he plays with the lock without a word, finding it just as easy to take off as anything else. It's surprising, really, does it say anything for Ciel's mindset at this time? Maybe, maybe not, Oswald tugs the lock and there it goes, cold metal on the ground once Oswald has dropped it as if it's nothing at all to him.
"Well," he starts, pulling this bird's cage open and reaching out his hand, darling heart, "come along, then. We don't have much time." Probably. Oswald doesn't fancy staying here longer than he has to and he doubts Ciel wants to stay here much longer, either.
