I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 770 On the road

On the plane, Liu Jin considered all the possible scenarios.

In the eight years since his rebirth, he has lived a dissolute life, which can only be described as decadent.

However, he never took it to heart. He had suffered so much in his previous life, so what was wrong with enjoying life a little after being reborn?
I neither steal nor rob.

I make money off foreigners, and I date foreign girls.

To be honest, apart from Alizee and Eva, the other girls, whether it's Sophie Marceau, Monica Bellucci, Scarlett Johansson, or Heidi and Naomi before... I don't feel any pressure.

Even before he knew AA had a child, he didn't feel any pressure.

He ignores all the gossip and only cares about being a scumbag!

But now...

"Doctor, is something on your mind?"

Jerome came over and handed him a glass of whiskey.

Liu Jin took the drink and drank a sip, then suddenly asked, "Jerome, what's it like to be a father?"

"what?"

Jerome was taken aback.

"Yes, it's a responsibility, a happiness, and it's tough, but... it's very fulfilling."

Isn't this what life should be like?

I have no idea!

Because I've always been alone, and I was in my past life too.

Liu Jin smiled and said nothing more.

Jerome could tell he didn't want to talk, so he didn't disturb him, sat down in a corner, and closed his eyes to pretend to sleep.

This trip will take twelve hours!

Liu Jin lit a cigar and sat there lost in thought.

……

The flight from Naples to Rio Grande do Sul took a full twelve hours.

It took off at 4 p.m. and landed at Rio Grande do Sul airport at 11 p.m. Brazilian time.

A Citibank client manager from Rio Grande do Sul was already waiting at the airport in a black Toyota Prado. As the gangway lowered and Liu Jin and Jerome got out of the car, the client manager quickly approached them.

He was accompanied by a female assistant.

"Mr. Amos, welcome to Porto Alegre."

I am Adriel Pedro from Citibank, and this is Maggie, a local from Erechim. She can act as your guide and lead you there.

Also, the equipment you requested is ready and in the car.

"Manager Pedro, thank you very much."

However, my schedule is very tight this time, so I won't bother with pleasantries. You have my phone number; please send me a text later so we can keep in touch. I'm leaving now. How long does it take to get from here to Erexin?

Pedro turned to look at Maggie.

Maggie quickly said, "The road to Erexin is not easy to travel. If we set off now, we will have to drive slowly and we should be able to arrive around 5 a.m.

“Then, we won’t linger, Maggie…”

“Maggie, Raphael Maggie Dasilvi Filha”

What a long name!
Maggie is easier to remember.

"Then, Miss Maggie, let's go."

Manager Pedro didn't mince words.

He could tell that Liu Jin was really busy.

“Maggie, safely lead Mr. Amos to Erexin.”

"Of course, Boss!"

Maggie took the driver's seat, Liu Jin got into the passenger seat, and Jerome sat in the back.

There was also a large travel bag on the back seat.

After Jerome got into the car, he immediately opened his travel bag, which contained two AR-15s, a dozen magazines, two pistols, and four pistol magazines.

Maggie started the car and drove out of the airport.

Jerome first inspected the two pistols, then handed one to Liu Jin.

He then inspected the two assault rifles, while Liu Jin, without further ado, kept his pistol at his waist.

"Miss Maggie, is Erexin big?"

Maggie paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Is this Mr. Amos's first time visiting Erexin... Wait, your name is Amos?"

"Ha, it's the Amos you're thinking of!"

“Mr. Amos, I…”

Maggie was a little excited!

"I have read your book, The Big Short."

"what?"

If you say you like my other books, I can understand that.

But The Big Short...

But then I realized that Maggie works at a bank.

His book, "The Big Short," is said to be a must-read for people in the financial industry today.

During last year's G20 summit, every leader had a copy of "The Big Short," which even became a unique sight at the summit.

A reporter took photos at the time, which caused the sales of "The Big Short" to surge again.

By the end of last year, "The Big Short" had sold 38 million copies worldwide, setting a sales record for financial novels.

Mela said 20th Century Fox is interested in buying the adaptation rights.

Liu Jin initially asked for $12 million. Fox News has yet to respond...

“Maggie, do you know Ambrose? She seems to be from your area.”

"That supermodel?"

"Yes!"

Maggie laughed and said, "She's a celebrity in our area."

A few years ago, she rarely came home. But in recent years, she's come back two or three times a year. However, I work in Porto Alegre, so I haven't seen her much. I did see her when I was little, but… it's been so long, I don't remember her very well.”

Maggie is in her thirties and should have met Ambrose.

Liu Jin thought for a moment and asked, "I heard she's pregnant?"

"It seems she has a daughter who lives with her mother... You're going to Erexin this time..."

"It's nothing, I just have something to take care of."

Maggie smiled and didn't ask any more questions.

However, I had a general idea in my mind.

He asked Ambrosio and her daughter... and then another person rushed to Erexin, and the answer became obvious.

Maggie wasn't unfamiliar with Camille.

She had seen it, and more than once.

Her home in Erexin was not far from the Ambrosio family's ranch.

Last year, she achieved her KPIs at Citibank thanks to Ambrose.

That's her little sister!
Back then, my little sister went home and gave birth to a baby, all very mysteriously.

She also asked AA, but AA didn't tell her who the father of the child was.

From the child's eyebrows and eyes, you could tell that he was of mixed Asian and ancestry... so when Liu Jin asked Ambrose, Maggie guessed it.

He came alone, but AA wasn't there.

Maggie hesitated.

Should we notify AA?

AA has refused to reveal who the child's father is, indicating that she doesn't want outsiders to know.

Now, a man who is most likely the father of the second generation has appeared, and it turns out to be... Maggie is also very conflicted.

She wanted to inform AA, but Manager Pedro warned her: for this mission, all she had to do was act as a guide, not ask questions, not say anything, and keep it a secret.

Maggie was a little worried that she would lose her job.

After all, the whole world is in an economic crisis, and the situation in Brazil is even worse.

Working at a large organization like Citibank is something many people envy.

But AA is her sister!
Just then, Liu Jin's phone rang.

"Lima? What brings you to call me?"

"Amos, where is he?"

Liu Jin almost blurted out his location, but then his eyes darted around, and he seemed to realize something. He smiled and said, "I'm in Salerno."

"Still up so late?"

"It's six o'clock, sister! It's almost dawn."

"I'm in Milan, and I happen to be free these days. Can I come to Salerno to see you? I heard you bought a nice big yacht."

"Ohlala!"

You little fox, are you singing a ghost story to me?

Lima has been lukewarm toward him ever since 04.

Lima would avoid him wherever he was.

Suddenly...

Liu Jin's lips curled into a smile as he said, "Sure, you're welcome anytime."

"Okay then, I'll make my plans and come find you."

You will definitely not show up!
I already predicted your prediction, woman!
Liu Jin hung up the phone and, unintentionally, glanced at Maggie.

But Maggie looked thoughtful...

He then took out his phone and sent a text message to Jerome.

Jerome was resting with his eyes closed in the back seat when his phone vibrated in his pocket. He paused for a moment, then saw Liu Jin turn around and hand him a pistol.

"It doesn't feel right, let's switch to another one."

As he spoke, he winked at Jerome.

Jerome immediately realized that the text message was sent to him by Liu Jin...

“Mr. Amos, there’s no need to be so nervous. Brazil isn’t that chaotic.”

"But I've seen Sin City."

"There are indeed some chaotic places in Rio and São Paulo."

But most of the people here are very simple and honest... the bigger the city, the more... Porto Alegre is very nice, very peaceful.

"Haha, it's always good to be prepared."

Maggie expressed her helplessness in the face of this.

There's nothing we can do about it; after all, in Hollywood movies, Brazil is always portrayed as a land of crime.
Well, it feels like in Hollywood movies, America is the best in the world, while evil thrives in other places.

While Liu Jin and Maggie were talking, Jerome secretly checked his phone's text messages.

• Keep an eye on her and prevent her from contacting the outside world.

Jerome nodded at Liu Jin through the rearview mirror.
