Chapter 130: The Shock of the Auction (5000 words)
After leaving the clothing store, Hoshizaki Yukina teleported home directly, changed all the wet pantyhose, and then rushed to the auction venue.
Fortunately, she left an invitation letter as a backup, otherwise she would most likely not be able to get in tonight.
In fact, Hoshizaki Yukina was not interested in this auction either. If Xu Cheng hadn't mentioned it, she wouldn't have even noticed that there would be such an auction tonight.
When she was getting the invitation letter, she heard some rumors that the Countermeasures Department seemed to be doing something here tonight.
Ever since the previous minister packed up and left, Hoshizaki Yukina has been excluded from the core of power of the Countermeasures Department. Perhaps the news is not timely and comprehensive.
However, her work ability is very strong and she can still occupy a place in the countermeasures department.
After returning home, Hoshizaki Yukina was so angry that she rushed over with a spare invitation letter, mainly to see what the countermeasures department planned to do tonight.
By the way, let’s take a look at who that bastard Xu Cheng came with.
I asked her for an invitation, but ended up dating someone else, which is simply unforgivable.
After entering the venue, Hoshizaki Yukina looked around, looking for Xu Cheng's figure, and once again found the lingering brat staring at her.
But this time Hoshizaki Yukina completely ignored him and continued to look for Xu Cheng.
In the end, I still couldn't find it, but I made an unexpected discovery in the corner.
Qiu Gongyue had already coldly rejected the fifth man who came to chat with her, and even lured a nagging guy to the women's restroom, knocked him unconscious and hid him.
However, since she was a child, she has long been accustomed to attracting bees and butterflies wherever she goes.
Coming to this auction tonight is the information Arakawa Buntai gave her - one of the three lost artifacts, the eight-foot magatama, will appear at the auction tonight.
Of course, Qiu Gongyue is not here for the auction, she is just here to see whose hands the eight-foot magatama will fall into, and then find an opportunity to get it.
"It's so popular, Xinyue."
A charming voice full of teasing sounded. Akimiya Yue looked up and saw Hoshizaki Yukina sitting opposite her.
This is the second meeting between the two after the Lingzi Tomb incident.
Hoshizaki Yukina put her hands on her chest and looked at Akimiya Yue's stunning and pretty face. She knew that this was Akimiya Yue's fake face, and her real face would definitely be more beautiful.
Just like herself, after you reach a certain level of beauty, you have to cover yourself up, otherwise you will attract attention wherever you go and you won't be able to accomplish anything.
"I really don't know why men like your cold face."
I don't know if she is feeling emotional or confused.
Qiu Gongyue stared at her face, which was no worse than her own, and her bust, which was similar to her own, and said coldly: "Are you here to quarrel with me?"
"You are now a Samsung killer. I dare not offend you."
Hoshizaki Yukina chuckled, and then pretended to be nonchalant and said: "Where is that guy who doesn't know how to cherish the beauty? Aren't you together?"
The image of her and Xu Cheng hugging each other in the hotel in the past few days suddenly appeared in Qiu Gongyue's mind.
She quickly put these heart-racing scenes behind her and said calmly: "No, we haven't seen each other for a long time."
Hoshizaki Yukina was a little surprised: "Really?"
"I don't need to lie to you."
Qiu Gongyue asked: "Did you meet him recently?"
"How is it possible, that bastard, I didn't even have time to hide from him, how could I possibly meet him."
Hoshizaki Yukina retorted, but her mood suddenly improved unexpectedly.
She has always regarded Qiu Gongyue as a competitor, and she was unhappy that she was promoted to three stars first.
But at this time, there was a joyful feeling in my heart that I had finally won.
You guys haven’t seen each other for a long time. We were in the women’s room just now... We were in a love hotel some time ago... Hum...
Hoshizaki Yukina kept a reserved smile, but looked at Akimiya Yue as if she were looking at an honest person.
To be honest, she felt a little confused about the fact that she had been meeting Xu Cheng recently. Obviously the two of them should be enemies, after all, he beat her so badly.
But his body was always out of control, and he would rush over to him whenever he called him, without any dignity at all.
Seeing Akimiya Yue at this time, Hoshizaki Yukina finally found a suitable reason for herself in her heart.
That's right, I actually wanted to cuckold Qiu Gongyue, my competitor, so I was so submissive to Xu Cheng. The purpose was to pry him over.
This reason made Hoshizaki Yukina suddenly get rid of the confusion in her heart, and instead became excited. She couldn't wait to see Akimiya Yue's face when she found out that she had been cheated on.
It must be a pleasure that I have never experienced before.
She was about to speak when a voice from beside her suddenly interrupted.
"Two ladies..."
A chubby middle-aged man asked with a flattering smile: "I am the president of Fujita Trading Company. I don't know if I have this honor. Please..."
"roll!"
Hoshizaki Yukina's voice suddenly turned cold, and her murderous eyes stared coldly at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was so frightened that he took a few steps back, covered his chest with his hands, and ran away in panic.
Hoshizaki Yukina's frosty face suddenly melted as if the spring breeze had blown by, and she said with a smile: "What a disgusting fly."
Although I have seen her many times, Akimiya Yuki is still amazed every time I see the speed of Yukina Hoshizaki's face changing.
Sometimes this competitor is a witch who likes to play pranks, acting recklessly and without scruples, and sometimes she is an aloof and cold witch who is unsmiling and cold-faced.
No one has ever seen what she looks like in private.
After driving away the flies, Hoshizaki Yukina asked again: "What are you doing here tonight?"
Akimiya picked up the black tea in front of him and took a sip: "No comment, if you want to know, ask Arakawa Buntai yourself."
"cut!"
Hoshizaki Yukina made a small sound to express her dissatisfaction, but she remembered something happy and her red lips curled up slightly.
She bent down, put her breasts on the table, and held her cheeks with her hands: "Then you have to be careful. You don't want to be beaten to death like last time. You need me to save you."
Qiu Gongyue's eyes turned cold: "Take care of yourself, don't get spanked until your butt is rotten again."
Hoshizaki Yukina's face immediately darkened, and she seemed to feel pain in her butt again.
The two women exposed each other's dark history, then snorted coldly and stopped talking to each other.
Xu Cheng watched the whole process from a distance. He couldn't hear what Akimiya Yue and Hoshizaki Yukina were saying. He could only see them being happy and angry for a while, and finally started to get into trouble. It was really boring.
Compared to these two women, Xu Cheng is more concerned about the situation around him.
Chizuru Godera said that there would be a task for the auction tonight. When he first entered the hotel, he noticed something was wrong with the atmosphere, but now he felt that everything was normal and there was nothing wrong with it.
"Bah, bah, bah..."
There was the sound of devouring food next to him. Xu Cheng turned around and saw that the table was already piled with food, all of which Nagumo Narumi had brought from the self-service area.
She was like a little hamster, her cheeks were stuffed and bulging, and she kept chewing, completely ignoring the looks of disgust or disgust from others.
"Woooo..."
Nagumo Narumi suddenly choked, his eyes widened, and he slapped his chest with his hands. He was still able to capture a picture of turbulent waves.
Xu Cheng quickly patted her back: "Are you reincarnated as a starving ghost? Eat slowly and no one will compete with you."
He felt like an old father taking care of his troubled daughter.
Could this be Yunniao's curse before his death?
Nagumo Narumi finally swallowed the food, took a long breath, and then started eating again.
While eating, he said: "When I came... I had been hungry all day... just to get my money back..."
You didn't spend a penny when you came in.
Xu Cheng knocked on the table with his hand: "What should I do if I can't finish eating? Didn't your sister teach you not to waste food?"
Nagumo Narumi was stunned for a moment before he seemed to consider this issue.
She thought for a while with her little head, then raised her head and showed a flattering smile to Xu Cheng: "What if I can't eat anymore, can you help me?"
Xu Cheng said angrily: "Okay."
The time soon came to nine o'clock in the evening, and the hotel waiter came out to inform the guests that the auction had begun.
The guests who had been waiting for a long time got up and walked to the auction venue.
Nayun Narumi was a little anxious when he saw this, but there was still some food on the table that was not finished. Nayun Narumi could only ask Xu Cheng for help: "I can't eat anymore, help me quickly."
"no problem."
Xu Cheng immediately stretched out his hand, grabbed Nanyun Minghai's palm-sized face, pinched her mouth open, then picked up the food on the table and stuffed it into her mouth.
"Woo...Woo..."
Nayun Narumi struggled and slapped Xu Cheng with his hand.
I asked you to help me eat, not that I asked you to help me eat.
With the help of Xu Cheng, the food on the table was finally wiped out by Nayun Narumi.
She held her round belly that was propped up with both hands and was pulled into the auction venue by Xu Cheng.
When I arrived at the entrance of the venue, I happened to bump into Akimiya Yue and Hoshizaki Yukina.
Xu Cheng now takes on the appearance of Xinghai Guang. Qiu Gongyue recognized him as the target of a previous failed assassination, but the follow-up Death Grant did not allow her to continue the assassination mission.
Hoshizaki Yukina stared at Nagumo Narumi in surprise.
This little girl got pregnant at such a young age? This brat actually brought a pregnant woman to her.
Thinking of Xu Cheng staring at her several times tonight, Hoshizaki Yukina felt annoyed. She snorted at Xu Cheng and decided to find an opportunity to teach him a lesson.
Xu Cheng was a little confused about Hoshizaki Yukina's hostility. Why did this woman start to go crazy again?
With my current skin, apart from looking at her twice, I don’t seem to have offended her much, right?
The two parties entered the auction venue directly without saying hello.
The venue was a hall filled with tables and chairs, and guests were seated according to their numbers.
After everyone appeared on the stage, the lights were turned off, leaving only two beams of lights illuminating the podium.
The two hosts came on stage and started to liven up the atmosphere, just like cross talk, making witty remarks that made the guests laugh.
After all, it was a high-class occasion, and many people smiled very reservedly. Only Nagumo Narumi, an outlier, laughed so much that he fell on the table. He turned to Xu Cheng and said, "Mushroom, I have a stomachache."
"Then do you want me to help you get the contents out of your stomach?"
"No, no, no, I can still hold on."
Nayun Narumi recalled the scene of Xu Cheng helping him eat just now, and his face turned pale with fright.
After the two hosts enlivened the atmosphere, the auction officially began.
Nowadays, most of these auctions have a charity name and promise to donate money to someone, but in fact they are just fishing for the rich businessmen and celebrities under the platform.
After the event is completed, the organizer pays back all the money, the money caught is divided into accounts, and finally a false account of the donation is made, and everyone is happy.
The fish caught in the trap are actually very aware of these methods, but some of them want to spend money to buy fame, and some want to transfer benefits and are willing to be caught.
The auction items are also diverse, including high-end luxury goods, rare objects, and many superstitious items, such as rings that can bring good luck, or beads that can eliminate diseases, etc.
Even in this world with supernatural powers, not everything is real, most of it is just a gimmick.
"Ah! It's that guy."
Nagumo Narumi suddenly exclaimed.
Xu Cheng asked strangely: "Which guy."
Nagumo Narumi quickly retracted his head and whispered: "It's the rich second generation who is pursuing me. He is sitting in front."
After Nagumo Narumi's reminder, Xu Cheng finally saw clearly which rich second generation it was - sitting in the front seat, a high-spirited young man, who must have come with his parents, had already taken a lot of valuable things.
.
Compared with the rich second generation, Xu Cheng was more concerned about how many hotel service staff suddenly appeared in the auction venue. Could it be that they were members of the Countermeasures Department pretending to be there.
In addition, the doors and windows of the venue were closed, including the entrance, forming a completely enclosed space.
Xu Cheng was not the only one who noticed this abnormal situation.
Jin Wu Yaren was sitting with a table of dignitaries. A subordinate came up and whispered something in his ear.
He looked around, but raised his finger and shook it, rejecting his subordinate's proposal.
At another table, Bai Yuelin also noticed the situation around her. She frowned slightly, turned to Ayase Aragaki and said, "If there is danger later, remember to stay by my side and don't run around."
Aragaki Ayase was stunned for a moment: "What danger?"
Bai Yuelin didn't explain. She had known for a long time that tonight was a trap and might be dangerous.
But I came anyway, just to see whose hands the eight-foot magatama will fall into in the end.
After the long auction, the guests felt a little lazy, and the grand finale of the auction finally came out.
"This is a magical object that can fulfill the holder's wishes..."
The host on the stage first made a passionate introduction, and after the atmosphere was heated up, he opened the red cloth of the display cabinet, revealing a piece of magatama protected in the glass.
The magatama that can make wishes is the name of this final auction item.
Under the host's foreshadowing, the guests' emotions had already been aroused, and countless eyes were fixed on the magatama in the display cabinet.
Among them are many people who really know the origin of this jade.
Nayun Narumi also became excited, clutching the password box tightly, and said to Xu Cheng: "Mogu, don't we have enough money?"
Xu Cheng was about to answer when he suddenly saw a hotel attendant coming onto the stage from the side and walking towards the host.
The guests in the audience thought this was a session arranged by the organizer, but the host was stunned: "Sir, you..."
boom!
Before he could finish his words, the waiter kicked him in the stomach. He turned into a shrimp and flew backwards, falling directly to the audience.
Wow!
The entire venue suddenly became uproar, and the guests were stunned and didn't know what was going on.
Only a few people could sit still and watch the show.
After the waiter kicked the host away, he broke the glass of the display cabinet with his fist and reached out to take out the magatama inside.
This blatant robbery finally aroused the surprise and anger of the guests.
"Stop, who are you?"
A middle-aged man who looked like a wealthy businessman stood up and angrily yelled at the waiter on the stage.
But the next moment, a ball of blood bloomed from his chest, and he fell on his back with a look of shock.
"ah!"
The female companion next to her let out a high-pitched scream, but a ball of blood immediately burst out from her head and she fell down.
"Ah! Ah!"
The guests nearby screamed in panic and ran away from the two corpses, and panic quickly spread to the entire venue.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sudden sound of gunshots directly suppressed the chaos.
The hotel waiters scattered around the venue took out their guns and fired, driving back the fleeing guests one after another.
"Wow, what kind of expansion is this?"
Nagumo Narumi's mouth turned into an O-shape, but there was no fear in his eyes, but instead, he was filled with excitement.
"Hey Mushroom, let me tell you, evil criminals will definitely come to prevent our Miracle Justice Team from obtaining magatama."
Nayun Narumi excitedly held Xu Cheng's hand, but he pressed him down: "Shut up and sit down."
He looked around with a serious face, guessing the identities of these waiters.
I originally thought that their Countermeasures Department was pretending to be a gangster, but I didn't expect that they turned out to be gangsters, and each of them was equipped with a gun.
Are the countermeasures department's actions tonight aimed at these gangsters?
Xu Cheng couldn't help but look for Jin Wu Yaren, and found that the newly appointed head of the Countermeasures Department was still sitting in his original position, even smiling, looking at the scene in front of him with great interest.
"Good evening, fellow rich people."
On the stage, the waiter who had already received the magatama turned to the guests in the audience and grinned: "You may know me, maybe you have not heard of me. Please allow me to introduce myself. My nickname is Weapon Master."
The guests looked at the man on the stage with trepidation. Some of them recognized the man's identity after hearing the nickname, and their faces suddenly turned pale.
"Mushroom, does this guy on stage like to play Jax?"
Nagumo Narumi asked in a low voice.
Xu Cheng also thought at first that the weapons master was the trick expert in LOL, but soon he remembered the information about the resistance that Chizuru Godera had told him, and his expression changed.
"Wuhu, it seems that many people have recognized me, which makes me very happy."
The weapons master laughed, then reached under his cheek and tore open the fake face with force, revealing a face with sharp edges and masculine energy.
He opened his hands and announced loudly: "I am the deputy leader of the resistance army, the great nemesis of the social worms sitting here, hahaha, are you surprised or surprised?"
There was silence in the venue for a few seconds, and then a louder noise rang out. Panic quickly spread among the crowd, and countless pairs of horrified eyes looked at the weapons master on the stage.
Although the general public is not yet aware of the large-scale emergence of superpowers, rich and powerful people have long known about it.
The rebels are even more famous. They not only resist the government, but also attack and kill wealthy people, businessmen, and high-ranking officials. They are regarded by senior officials as terrorists who must be eradicated.
The leader of the resistance is too mysterious, and few people know his identity. The most famous is the deputy leader, nicknamed the Weapon Master, who planned and implemented many attacks.
Rather than being surprised by the Weapon Master's identity, Xu Cheng was more surprised that the fake face that the Weapon Master tore off was obviously a disguise technique given to the dead.
Is there still a relationship between the Resistance and the Dead?
