Under the darkness of night, Manhattan's neon lights flash and traffic flows rapidly, making it even more prosperous than during the day.
A taxi stopped at the intersection of 42nd Street. Ning Tao paid the fare, got out of the car, and walked forward among the bustling crowd. He didn't go far before he found Minggu Bar and walked over.
He didn't know the name of the patient he took the initiative to see tonight, he only knew the man's nickname - Mr. Black.
There were two big black men standing at the door of the Gothic-style bar, as strong as bears. Anyone who entered would be searched by the two men with detectors. Guns and drugs are not allowed inside. The ban on guns is to prevent people from fighting and causing trouble inside. It is forbidden to bring drugs in, but you can only buy their products.
Ning Tao didn't have any weapons on him, so he passed the inspection easily and entered the Minggu Bar. Since refining the meat-in-arms gun, the refined shell gun has also become a backup option, and is rarely used anymore. And his little medicine box has become his business card. If he carries it on his back, it is tantamount to hinting to everyone who sees him that I am the number one terrorist. Therefore, that is also not allowed.
The music in the bar was loud, and the DJ on the mixer twisted her waist like a water snake, raising her hands from time to time and letting people dance with her. On the dance floor, men and women shook their heads, twisted their waists, swung their hips, and danced wildly. The air here smells of hormones and alcohol.
This was the first time for Ning Tao to come to such a bar. He came here for a "medical visit", but after entering, he felt a little at a loss. There were people everywhere, and the music was so loud that it was hard to hear people talking clearly.
Ning Tao awakened the sight and smell skills of his eyes and nose, and at a glance, the bar was filled with bad smell, as thick as an inkstone where a brush had been washed.
There are exceptions.
Ning Tao's gaze stopped in a corner, where four white youths and two Asian girls were sitting at a table drinking. The two girls seemed very reserved, but the four young white men seemed very active, playing games and getting the two girls drunk in various ways.
There was a little kindness in those two girls, which stood out in this smoky place. Judging from their reactions, it seemed that this was their first time in such a place.
Ning Tao had an idea in mind. He casually ordered a bottle of beer and walked to that corner.
"I can't drink anymore, my head feels dizzy." An Asian girl said.
"Jenny, we invited you out for a drink, are you just going to spoil the fun like this?" A white young man with a tattoo on his neck said with a sinister expression: "Are you girls from China so dull? How can you not drink when you come to a place like this? "
It turned out to be a girl from China, and Jenny was obviously that girl’s English name.
Another young white man said sarcastically: "Are you afraid that your parents will teach you a lesson?"
The other two young white men laughed and cooperated well.
Perhaps this sentence stimulated the two girls from China, and the two girls drank another glass of beer. The two girls were obviously not regular drinkers. When they drank with their eyes closed, it felt like they were drinking a very bitter soup.
While the two girls were drinking with their eyes closed, a young white man put a little white powder into a bottle of wine. Then he picked up the bottle of wine and shook it while he stood up. The two girls had just finished drinking the beer in their glasses, and he was holding the bottle to pour wine for the two girls.
"No more. I really can't drink anymore. My head hurts so much." Another girl said with a thin voice and wearing myopia glasses. At first glance, she looked like a quiet girl who studied well. , but I don’t know why I came to this place.
The white young man carrying the wine bottle said: "Tang Li, the last glass. As long as you drink this last glass of wine, we will not advise you to drink it."
As he spoke, he filled two glasses with beer.
"After this last glass of wine, can we leave?" the girl named Tang Li asked, looking a little moved.
The white young man carrying the wine bottle smiled and said: "Yes, after drinking this glass of wine, if you want to go back, you can go back."
"Come on, come on, let's drink to our party today." Another young white man held up a wine glass.
Jenny and Tang Li picked up their wine glasses again...
"Wait a minute." Ning Tao walked over and said hello cordially, "Jenny, Tang Li, why are you here?"
He spoke in Chinese.
Jenny and Tang Li looked at Ning Tao who came in front of them. Both girls had blank expressions on their faces. They had obviously never met this strange young man of the same race, but he gave them the feeling of being a friend they had known for a long time.
Ning Tao smiled and said, "Have you forgotten? We were classmates in high school, and I was sitting right behind you. This world is such a small place, I didn't expect to meet my high school classmates here."
"You are..." Jenny obviously couldn't remember having such a high school classmate.
"Hey!" The white young man carrying a bottle of wine said to Ning Tao: "Boy, who are you? Don't use that kind of bird language that we can't understand. This is Manhattan. Don't you speak English? If you don't, get out. Go back to your country!"
"I think they are stowaways. Those stowaways who come here basically don't know English. They will cry when they call the immigration office to report." Another white young man said sarcastically.
Ning Tao ignored it and continued to say in Chinese: "Well, I'm not that kind of classmate. I think they drugged the wine, so I came to help you. I think you two are still students, why are you here? A place to play? This is very dangerous, and this is not the place you should be at all.”
The two girls were already a little drunk, but when they heard Ning Tao say that the wine was drugged, they were frightened out of their drunkenness.
"We..." Tang Li said nervously: "We found a part-time job related to our major. They are all our colleagues. They said they would hold a welcome party for us tonight. We didn't expect that the party they said was In a place like this, I didn’t expect them to be like this.”
"Let's go. Don't trust others easily in the future, especially people who have just met you but are very nice to you. Find a part-time job again. These guys are not good people." Ning Tao said.
"Thank you." Jenny stood up and prepared to leave.
The white young man sitting next to her pushed her down and said gloomily: "Jenny, what do you want to do?"
"We, we... we are going back to school." Jenny suddenly became nervous.
"Hmph!" The white young man who pressed her shoulder sneered: "Didn't we agree that we will let you leave after the last drink? If you don't drink the wine, you can't leave."
"We... won't drink!" Tang Li mustered up the courage to say.
"Don't want to drink? Then you will pay for tonight's consumption. The wine we drink is very expensive, about 5,000 US dollars. It's okay if you don't drink. You two can come up with 5,000 US dollars." said the white young man with a tattoo on his neck.
"We... don't have that much money, let alone... these drinks are not what we want to drink, you, you can't be so unreasonable!" Tang Li's eyes suddenly filled with tears, and she looked like she was about to cry. .
After this experience, they probably won't come to a place like this again in the future. The reason why Ning Tao did not stop these four white youths from threatening them in time was because he had good intentions. He wanted to make them nervous and scared, so that they would have long memories.
"Why are you still standing here? Idiot!" The white young man who spoke to Ning Tao first reached out and gave Ning Tao a shove with a fierce look in his eyes.
To Ning Tao, such a slap was like a baby hitting him, but he shook it cooperatively, took two steps back, and almost fell down.
"What are you doing? How can you hit someone?" Jenny asked.
She is very smart, and Ning Tao is the one who helps her and Tang Li. If Ning Tao is beaten away, no one will help them, so she mustered up the courage to speak for Ning Tao.
The white young man who pushed Ning Tao said fiercely: "Shut up!"
Jenny was immediately frightened by his ferocious aura, her lips moved, but no words came out.
Ning Tao felt that it was almost done and said in English: "I will give you two choices now. Either the two of them walk out, or the four of you carry them out. Which one do you choose?"
"Fake! So you can speak English, are you threatening us?" The white young man who slapped Ning Tao had a sneer on his face. He also used exaggerated body language when speaking, giving the impression that imitating a monkey.
Another young white man held the skin at the corners of his eyes with both hands and pulled his eyes upward. This is also an insulting move that discriminates against Chinese people and is meant to mock Chinese people for their small eyes.
Ning Tao smiled: "Threaten you? No, the situation is more serious than the threat."
As soon as he finished speaking, the white young man carrying the wine bottle suddenly picked up the bottle, which was still half full of wine, and hit Ning Tao on the head.
Ning Tao raised his hand and blocked it with the back of his hand.
Bang!
The bottle was broken, and the back of Ning Tao's hand was wet with beer. He shook his hand, shook off the beer on the back of his hand, and suddenly punched the white young man who hit him with the bottle in the stomach.
There was a muffled sound, and the young white man immediately collapsed to the ground.
"What are you two still doing here? If you don't leave yet, you won't have a chance to leave again." Ning Tao said.
Jenny and Tang Li just woke up from a dream and hurriedly got up and ran to the door. They were really frightened.
A young white man reached out to grab someone, but was kicked back to the sofa by Ning Tao.
The other two young white men ignored Jenny and Tang Li and rushed towards Ning Tao. They each grabbed a wine bottle and rushed towards Ning Tao.
Although Ning Tao has the spiritual power blocked by the Tianzi version of the Yingu Town Spirit Talisman, it is not something that these four little scum can deal with. In fact, he could kill these four little scum in two or three seconds. He could maim or kill them as he pleased, but he chose not to do so because he wanted to catch bigger fish.
Bang bang!
There were two muffled sounds, and two young white men rushed forward with wine bottles. Almost at the same time, the wine bottles in his hands hit Ning Tao on the head.
Ning Tao grinned...
