Chapter 13 (1/2)

”Catch that thief!” Just as Yan Tian was getting ready to head back into the company, he suddenly heard a voice.

His gaze followed a somewhat-aged old man chasing after a young guy running. The old man ran and shouted to catch the thief, but the young man ran quite quickly. It could be seen that within his hand he held a black briefcase and ran at lightning speed.

But at this time, there still weren't many people on the main street. Currently, a majority of people were taking their lunch break, and the remaining people on the street didn't want to cause trouble, so they didn't help the old man stop the young guy.

”Hmph, I'll go. Daring to rob an old man in broad daylight?” Yan Tian finished talking, then chased after.

Yan Tian's speed was quick. In a short moment, Yan Tian overtook the young man. Yan Tian immediately stuck out his foot and tripped the young guy to the ground.

”You dare to stop me? Do you know who I am?” After the young guy was felled to the ground by Yan Tian, he looked at Yan Tian furiously.

”I don't care who you are, but in front of I, your papa, you robbed another person's belongings, moreover an old man's? Of course I couldn't watch with folded arms.” Yan Tian used his foot to step on the young guy's back and said.

A short moment later, the old man caught up. Picking up his bag, and looking at the items inside, he suddenly let loose a breath of air.

”Young man, thank you. If it weren’t for you, this old man wouldn't know what to do.” The old man looked at Yan Tian and gave him his thanks.

From head to toe, the old man was rather stringy. His wizen appearance resembled that of an osprey. Yet his tanned, dried face and short grizzled beard were especially lively. His deep set eyes were particularly bright and contained seldom-seen sharpness.

”Hehe, no need to thank me. I was on the road and upon seeing such injustice, I took the opportunity to help, nothing more.” Yan Tian simply spoke the truth.

”Oh, pretty good, young man, hahaha.” The old man looked at Yan Tian and laughed.

The old man was thinking to himself as he looked at the item inside the pouch. Looking at Yan Tian and the guy underneath his foot again, he shook his head. With his hand, he took out a small box from the pouch. It was unknown what was inside.

”Ah, I'll give it to you, OK? Take it and go back to give it to him. I know you guys really want it, however, I can only give you guys this much. If you guys still don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for being impolite.” The old man handed over the box in his hand over to the young guy.

”I shall pa.s.s it on to the head, farewell!”

The young guy finished speaking, then prepared to leave; however, how could Yan Tian let him go? If must be known that he was a thief. He should hand him over to the police.

”It's OK, young man. Let him go, alright? There are some things you don't know.” The old man looked at Yan Tian who hadn't released the young guy and said.

”Alright, I'll let him leave!” If both parties involved said to let go, then Yan Tian naturally wouldn't dim-wittedly bring the man over to the the police station. If he had brought him to the police station, he reckoned there would be a big mess of trouble anyway.

After the young guy got up, he turned to look at the old man and once again look at the black briefcase. He then fled away at a mind-numbing speed.

”Young man, I thank you today. If there's an opportunity later, we shall meet again.” The old man looked at Yan Tian and thanked him.

”Oh my, don't thank me. Your thanks is still better than the greatest benefit of money.” Once the old man thanked Yan Tian again, he blushed. He had done nothing more than catch a thief.

”Hehe, young man. Don't tell me you're not curious about the things inside this bag?” The old man suddenly looked at Yan Tian and asked.

”Not at all. Something I should know, I'll naturally know about it. Something I shouldn’t know, but do know will on the contrary be of no good.” Yan Tian watched the old man and said.

”Hehe, good, good! What a good young fellow. What's your name?” After the old man heard Yan Tian's words, he suddenly laughed.

”Yan Tian.”

”Hmm, I'll remember you. If we are brought together by fate, we shall naturally meet again. I shall take my leave.”
