The cheeky journalist Cornejo intends to take advantage of this finding, with the help of Paca Revilla, a careless woman, and an unscrupulous doctor. The controversy over the authenticity of the body of Contreras reaches the ears of some American universities, which buy the body of the Captain. Written by jsanchez See less
