She quickly put down the plate in her hand, rubbed her eyes, and then squinted her eyes to look over.
Human body, fish tail.
There is no trace of fraud in the transition.
This is... a mermaid?!
She is stupid.
There was an uproar around him.
"This is a mermaid found in the Bay of Bengal. According to our researchers' analysis, she is about 70 years old, which is about 16 or 7 years old in humans."
"Everyone should have heard of such a fairy tale. There lived several mermaid princesses in the deep seabed. Especially the youngest princess. She liked to listen to her sisters talk about the new things on the sea, so she secretly visited her on her fifteenth birthday.
Time swam to the surface of the sea.”
"There was a big ship on the sea. She saw the prince who was holding a grand birthday party, and fell in love with him at first sight. It happened that the ship encountered a strong wind, and she rescued the prince, but the prince thought it was another girl who saved him, so she
With that girl."
"The princess was very sad, so she went to the witch under the sea and made a dark deal: she would become a human, but could not bear the pain of walking. If the prince fell in love with someone else, she would turn into a bubble and die. The witch even took away
Her voice..."
"Of course, everyone has heard of the final outcome. The prince still married another girl, and the princess finally turned into a bubble and disappeared."
The woman paused deliberately, and then said passionately:
"But that's not a fairy tale! Mermaids do exist. Their blood contains unknown wealth, the most important of which is - immortality!"
The woman picked up a stick, reached into the iron cage, and lifted up the mermaid's hair.
The mermaid immediately panicked and hid back.
With a "clang", she hit the iron cage and had nowhere to escape. She could only hug herself tightly and look at the person outside the cage pleadingly with her pitiful deer-like eyes.
The woman threw the stick aside casually, with a hint of ill-intention in her tone, "This mermaid has a docile personality and is a rare breed. No matter what you want to do to her, it will be very interesting~"
There was a burst of laughter from below.
Seeing that the atmosphere was almost heightened, the woman smiled, picked up the auction gavel, and said to the audience, "The starting price is 1 million pounds. The increase in price is 100,000 pounds."
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the price shouting started.
"1.5 million!"
"Two million!"
"4000000!"
…
Listening to the constant stream of quotes in her ears, Xie Yuqing swallowed involuntarily.
She stared blankly at the... mermaid in the iron cage. After living for almost 20 years, her world view suddenly collapsed.
This thing... ah, no, isn't this species an idea from a fairy tale book?
Also, what the hell is this place?
She finally realized something was wrong.
No matter how rich Shirley Jiang was, she would never be able to come into contact with such a thing!
There's something wrong with that invitation!
Realizing this, Xie Yuqing immediately woke up and it was not advisable to stay here for a long time.
She couldn't help but take a small step back, then another step, slowly retreating towards the hall in the darkness.
Before anyone notices her yet, sneak away first as a courtesy.
Fortunately, the dessert station is not far from the entrance hall.
Soon, Xie Yuqing's back touched a cold, sharp object.
However, it doesn't look like a door handle, but more like...
Blade?
For some reason, when this guess flashed through her mind, Xie Yuqing stupidly pushed her back and felt it.
Perhaps she had never encountered such a weird and arrogant person, but the person behind her seemed to be startled, and relaxed the blade against her back by one centimeter.
Then he lowered his voice and whispered in her ear——
