384: Chapter 379 Clues 384: Chapter 379 Clues The poison of the Seven Emotions Fruit was really too terrible!
Even Ye Tian, with his brilliant medical skills, was stumped…
The only solution was to find the Companion Fruit.
But now there was no clue to the whereabouts of the Companion Fruit, and who knew how Wang Bingbing and the hungry wolf were doing?
Worried about the Companion Fruit, Ye Tian did not go to work with Yun Xinyan at the Yun Corporation the next day.
In contrast, Yun Xinyan was in surprisingly good shape, just like someone who was perfectly fine.
After a good night’s sleep, Yun Xinyan energetically headed to Yun Corporation, while Ye Tian waited in the villa for a while, until he finally received a call from Wang Bingbing.
“There’s a clue about the Companion Fruit!”
Wang Bingbing’s words were cold, but to Ye Tian, they were a very heartwarming sentence.
So, Ye Tian immediately drove to the Ice and Snow Bar, but halfway there, he encountered a traffic jam…
What’s going on?
Ye Tian found it odd, as the road from his villa to the Ice and Snow Bar was usually not busy and never had traffic jams.
Why was it so badly congested today?
Dozens of cars were stuck on the highway, unable to move an inch.
Many people got out of their cars to see what had happened.
Ye Tian also got out of his car and went to the front of the traffic jam.
He saw a group of thugs beating a middle-aged man in his forties, with an electric bike lying on its side nearby, next to a Chevrolet SUV…
“Claiming you don’t have the money to compensate?
Do you know how much my grandpa’s car is worth?
If you can’t afford to pay, then pay with your life!”
The lead thug spoke fiercely, kicking the middle-aged man as he did so.
The thugs were assaulting the middle-aged man and also blocking the traffic, but the onlookers, although furious, dared not say anything.
They could do nothing but watch the man get beaten, feeling powerless against the imperious thugs.
“This uncle is really unlucky, it was just a minor scrape on the bike, and these thugs caught him.
Now it seems like nothing can be resolved without the police.”
“The police can’t handle these thugs, right?
They’re regulars around here; even the police don’t dare to offend them!”
Two passersby were discussing the situation, and Ye Tian also understood what had happened.
Apparently, the middle-aged man’s electric bike had accidentally scratched the thugs’ Chevrolet SUV.
Then the thugs called more of their gang and surrounded and beat the poor man.
But the middle-aged man didn’t have the money to pay, so he could only swallow his grievances…
“Big brother, I’m just a poor man, how could I afford your car?
All I have is two hundred bucks; please, just let me go!”
The middle-aged man’s nose was bruised and his face was swollen from the beating, and he pleaded miserably, pulling out a crumpled stack of money from his pocket made up entirely of small change, without a single hundred yuan bill.
“This money isn’t even enough to plug the gaps between my teeth!”
The leader of the thugs kicked the middle-aged man’s hand fiercely, scattering all the change.
Tears filled the eyes of the middle-aged man.
Although the money wasn’t much, he had worked hard for days to earn it.
He was a laborer, how could he compare to a big business owner?
“These thugs are just too…”
The onlookers couldn’t stand it anymore.
The thugs were being too arrogant, but everyone was too afraid to speak out.
Given their audacious attitude, it seemed probably that not even the police would dare to intervene.
“You old trash, you belong in the trash can!
You dares to come out from the trash can and scratch my grandpa’s car.
This time, if I don’t beat you to the ground in search of your teeth, you won’t learn your lesson!”
The leader of the thugs said arrogantly.
The middle-aged man could only sigh helplessly, without the strength to plead any further.
“Right, right, boss, Let’s give this guy a good beating, then we’ll take him to the police station.
He can’t just get away with scratching the boss’s car like that!”
One of the lackeys next to the leader chimed in.
Seeing this, Ye Tian took a step forward…
“Young man, what are you trying to do?
Didn’t you see how aggressive these people are?”
An onlooker who saw that Ye Tian seemed to be about to play the hero quickly grabbed him.
These thugs were lawless; maybe only the police could handle them.
Wasn’t it better not to provoke them?
“It’s nothing, I just want to reason with them!”
Ye Tian laughed and, ignoring the onlooker pulling at him, walked directly towards the thugs.
“Creating a traffic jam so early in the morning, get lost!”
Ye Tian said coldly.
The thugs turned their heads in surprise upon hearing this.
Someone dared to speak to them like this, did this person have a death wish?
“Oh my, this guy is so bold!”
The onlooker who had grabbed Ye Tian sighed.
Ye Tian wasn’t there to reason; he was clearly seeking death!
These thugs didn’t look like pushovers, all tall and burly, clearly brawlers.
How could Ye Tian, lone against so many thugs, come out on top?
“You little punk, who do you think you are?
Daring to teach your grandpa a lesson here?”
The thug leader, a head taller than Ye Tian, looked down on him with disdain, his words dripping with scorn.
“Hehehe!
I wasn’t even done hitting you just now, this time I’m going to beat you senseless!”
A lackey stepped up to Ye Tian, eager for violence.
The previous beating of the middle-aged man had left them wanting more, and now someone had willingly thrown himself into the fray.
“Attack!”
The gang leader gestured, and several thugs rushed towards Ye Tian.
The onlooking crowd was sweating for Ye Tian, but he was calm and composed.
Without even moving his feet, he swung out his fist.
“Bang!”
A fist struck right into the stomach of the oncoming thug, who was sent flying by Ye Tian’s punch.
“Crash!”
The thug Ye Tian had sent flying crashed heavily to the ground, his bones seeming to come apart, and he instantly passed out.
The onlookers all widened their eyes.
What had just happened?
The man was sent flying?
This righteous person, his strength was so great!?
“Bastard!
You dare to lay hands on us!”
Seeing Ye Tian show off his power, the gang leader was immediately enraged and charged straight at Ye Tian.
This gang leader had become the boss through his fists and feet, his skills were extraordinary, and beating ten opponents singlehandedly was no problem at all!
So, the gang leader naively thought that as long as he took action, he could easily handle Ye Tian…
But he was wrong because, when he charged in front of Ye Tian, intent on attacking, Ye Tian simply extended his hand and grabbed the gang leader’s fist.
Ye Tian’s grip was very strong, and the gang leader couldn’t move at all.
Having grown so old, the gang leader had never encountered someone with such immense strength like Ye Tian; his hand was like a vise grip!
“Get lost!”
Ye Tian said indifferently, then kicked the gang leader in the stomach.
The gang leader felt a severe pain in his abdomen as his insides seemed to tear, causing him to collapse on the spot, unable to get up again.
“This, this…”
The gang leader and his underlings couldn’t believe what was happening before their eyes.
This person was too terrifying; his fighting power was not human, but superhuman!
Seeing their boss beaten down, the remaining thugs didn’t dare to act rashly and froze, motionless.
“You beat up the uncle, why don’t you pay to compensate for his losses?”
Ye Tian asked coldly, and the gang of thugs didn’t dare to utter a word of refusal.
“Yes, yes, yes, we’ll compensate right away!”
A thug said while stuffing a stack of hundred-yuan bills into the hands of the middle-aged uncle who had been beaten, and the uncle, grateful, looked at Ye Tian.
Ye Tian then said to the thugs, “Scram!”
“Yes, yes, we’re leaving!”
The thugs no longer dared to linger in front of Ye Tian, the god of death.
They quickly helped their injured companions into the car and drove away…
The cars that had blocked the traffic finally left, and traffic began to move smoothly again.
The onlookers all looked at Ye Tian with admiration, and even the middle-aged uncle who had been saved by Ye Tian wanted to say thank you but couldn’t find the words…
Ignoring the gazes of the people around him, Ye Tian went straight back to his car.
As traffic flowed smoothly, Ye Tian drove straight to the Ice Snow Bar!
Wang Bingbing had been waiting there for Ye Tian and immediately brought him into the underground room of the Ice Snow Bar when he arrived.
“It’s this person!”
In the underground room, Wang Bingbing handed Ye Tian a picture of a man in his twenties.
“Who is this?” Ye Tian curiously asked.
“This person visited the deep mountains on the outskirts of Jiang City a few days ago and seems to have picked some fruit there, likely the Companion Fruit!”
Wang Bingbing explained.
Hearing this, Ye Tian was overjoyed.
“Really?
Then where is this person now?”
“This person is not in Jiang City at the moment.
As soon as I found out that he might have the Companion Fruit, I immediately sent people to find him.
We expect to bring him here by tomorrow!” Wang Bingbing added.
“He’s in another place…”
Ye Tian was puzzled.
Who was the person in the photograph, and why had he left Jiang City after picking the Companion Fruit?
What was his purpose?
Of course, since Wang Bingbing had already said she would bring the person back tomorrow, there was nothing to worry about.
Ye Tian had high praise for Wang Bingbing’s ability to get things done.
“Not bad, my little maid, you did well!”
While talking, Ye Tian gave Wang Bingbing a pat on the bottom.
“Humph!”
Wang Bingbing gave Ye Tian a cold look without saying a word, still sporting her icy demeanor.
