"Li, are you heading to the Amazon too? Just like us, to escape the FBI's pursuit?"
Chemise wasn't quite sure why Li Bai had boarded the same flight as them.
To be honest, ever since he had fallen into Li Bai's hands, he had been quite wary of this Chinese young man. He couldn't beat him!
But from another angle, if they were all fellow travelers fallen on hard times, perhaps they could help each other. Having a powerful expert along would make things safer.
"I'm going to find someone. It has nothing to do with you."
Li Bai had no interest whatsoever in traveling with the two of them. What the hell was an indigenous tribe in the tropical rainforest?
Hadn't he spent long enough on the dirt-poor African Continent?
Latin Girl timidly said, "I can pay you!"
She and Chemise probably had a bit of money on hand to dare make such a "lavish" offer.
Westerners weren't ashamed to talk about profit. When personal connections failed, they often brought out money instead, and it usually worked.
Unfortunately, Li Bai wasn't a Westerner. Chinese people still valued personal relationships. No amount of money could buy his willingness.
"I'll pay you double. Stop bothering me!"
Li Bai shook out the first-class blanket and pulled it directly over his head, shutting them out completely.
Vera and Chemise exchanged glances and could only smile bitterly in helplessness.
The journey from Los Angeles in America to Manaus in Brazil was a long one even by plane, and they still had to transfer in São Paulo.
After twenty-one hours, Li Bai finally arrived at Eduardo Gomes International Airport in the capital of Amazonas.
The Northern Hemisphere was deep in winter, with snow flying everywhere, but it was the rainy season in the Amazon rainforest
