Chapter 415: Put the Tactic to Use

Translator: Nyoi-Bo StudioEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

It was mid-September, and the weather was starting to look gloomy; it looked as though the city would be welcoming its first rainfall that month.

Li Du had a troublesome matter to deal with during this period of time: his visa needed to be renewed.

He had stayed in the United States for a full year now, having arrived last September. In the end, the school had closed down within two months and the school’s board of directors absconded with the money. Every time he thought about this, he became so angry that he wanted to scream.

Besides losing his school fees and research funding, he was also angry that his visa renewal might run into problems. When Sophie heard about the issue of his visa renewal, she smiled and asked for the visa, and paid a visit to her parents.

Mr. Martin was forthright and immediately said, ”Study visa? That’s easy, just leave it to me. But Li, you actually went to National College in Flagstaff?”

Li Du smiled bitterly. ”Well, my test results are not good enough to attend better schools.”

Mr. Martin shook his head and said, ”No, no, the test results don’t matter. My point is you’re really daring to choose a school that did not get certified by the Department of Education. That’s really bold of you.”

Sophie was peeling some pistachios. ”You can get Li a tutor and let him come to your school.”

”Do you want that?” asked Mr. Martin. ”This is not difficult.”

Li Du did not want to; the main reason he worked hard to study abroad was not to gain knowledge, but rather, he had wanted to make more money for a better life.

Now that he had the little bug, he could earn a lot of money. Why would he want to go back to school and torture himself?

Li Du received a text message as he was returning from the Martin’s residence. It was the address of where Frank and York were currently staying; a hotel in Flagstaff.

Li drove over, found the room, and was about to knock on the door.

Suddenly, shouting was heard coming from the room:

”Let’s go back. What are we staying here for?”

”D*mmit, what are we staying here for? Of course, it’s to teach that Chinaman a lesson!”

”But this is his territory! You’ve seen the attitude of the local treasure hunters towards him—”

”We’ve already dealt with them. If they’re smart enough, they won’t be siding with that Chinaman anymore.”

”Bullsh*t! That Chinaman went to the Casino and gave them his winnings of 10,000 dollars. These b*st*rds are now completely loyal to him, whereas the unlucky Joffrey Rick suffered a heavy social and physical blow.”

”Oh, Dog Ears—he needs to change his name to Half Dog Ears now. Those Native Americans are ruthless. I can’t believe they actually cut Rick’s ears in half!”

”More reasons we should go back. These country bumpkins are brutal. You gotta know the silver armor is with us. If they knew that the silver armor was in the local bank...”

”Shut up! Why are you saying that out loud when you know such stuff needs to be kept a secret? Lower your voice!”

”Okay, I’ll lower my volume, let’s discuss this...”

Their voices toned down so Li Du could only hear incoherent mumbling.

He was suddenly reminded of that guy who tattooed a Chinese poem about a white goose on himself: Max Conrad, who called himself Lu Guan. The white lad had outstanding hearing abilities. If he were here, he would know what Frank and York were discussing.

Nevertheless, he had already overheard a lot of useful information. The silver armor they procured in Phoenix was now stored in Flagstaff. Perhaps he could start plotting his revenge towards the two in using this knowledge.

If he intended to do so, he couldn’t let them both put up their guards against him. That meant he should not let them notice that he’d been outside all along and had overheard some of their conversation.

So he slipped back to the reception and said, ”Could you please contact the two gentlemen in room 0415? I’m a friend of theirs.”
