Cheyenne heard the words of the chubby woman and a glimmer flashed quickly before her eyes. She lifted her foot and walked over.
"Excuse me, sis. Did you see what happened here just now? May I ask if you saw the people who were fighting?"
Suddenly, a beautiful girl appeared in front of them, so captivating that one couldn't take their eyes off her. The chubby woman was not fond of Cheyenne, but when the latter called her "sis", she couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
'This girl really knows how to talk. I'm almost fifty years old, but she calls me sis. Do I really look so young?'
At the thought, she answered Cheyenne in a gentle tone,
"Oh my God, it was terrifying! I just saw with my own eyes that group of people in black clothes beating a young guy nearly to death. The one leading them was a bald guy, looked to be in his thirties, covered in tattoos, and had an extremely menacing look."
A bald guy covered in tattoos in his thirties... Cheyenne quickly searched through her memories and realized that she had no relevant memories of such a guy.
"How many people are there on their side?"
The woman shook her head and hesitated for a moment, then extended one hand and made a gesture of five turning into seven.
She sighed and said, "I... I don't remember very clearly, but there were quite a few people on their side."
"Okay, thank you, sis."
At the scene of the crime, two police officers in uniform were taking photos. Cheyenne was just approaching when she was scolded by the two officers and told to go back.
"Don't get too close here, please step back and don't disturb the scene."
Cheyenne looked at the puddle of blood on the ground and felt even more uneasy.
She could basically confirm that Eddie was targeted because of her. Who sent these people?
Just as she was about to leave, Cheyenne spotted a small round ball near the nearby sewer opening.
She immediately took out the one in her pocket and compared it with the other, to her surprise, the two beads were exactly identical!
Perhaps she can find some clues on the beads.
A glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, and she secretly clenched the two beads in her palm before turning around to leave.
In the crowd, a mysterious black shadow silently followed Cheyenne, while the man tightly held onto his suit jacket with both hands.
Underneath the suit, there was a sharp little knife.
Cheyenne got back into the car and started up the Lamborghini, preparing to head to Omari's law firm, NIGHTBREEZE.
After all, Omari had some connections in Akloit, and having him help in the search for the owner of the bead would be much quicker than her trying to do it alone.
Cheyenne also thought it was a good opportunity to tell Omari what had happened here.
Her feet lightly pressed on the accelerator, but because she was thinking about things, she didn't drive fast. Soon, an ordinary blue Volkswagen caught up with her from behind and followed her closely.
She arrived at a traffic light intersection and waited for the light to change. Cheyenne glanced at herself in the rear-view mirror out of boredom, her gaze filled with suspicion as it rested on the blue sedan behind her.
Why does it look so familiar?
The red light turned yellow, then green three seconds later. With a hint of suspicion, Cheyenne changed her original driving trajectory and went straight ahead.
The blue car behind her also moved along with her but kept its distance at about fifty meters away from her all the time.
Something's wrong!
Cheyenne's heart trembled slightly as she put both hands firmly on the steering wheel and suddenly turned it 360 degrees in the middle of the road to change direction.
The wheels rubbed against the ground, producing black marks that could faintly smell like burnt rubber. Her sudden turn almost caused a collision with cars coming from behind; one van slammed on its brakes while several other vehicles were forced to stop too.
The blue Volkswagen had no choice but to stop as well. Across a green belt strip between them, they saw Cheyenne roll down her window and make a victory gesture towards them with an extremely bright smile on her face.
