Chapter 124: Crazy Bidding

Delphinium is worthy of being a high-end hotel, and when such a big thing happened, the manager made a response plan at night, replacing the smoked carpet overnight, and cleaning up the traces of smoke bombs on the oil paintings.

Although the customers in the store heard some movement in the evening, the foreman replied that "although there was a small thief peeping at the fine jewelry waiting to be auctioned upstairs, they were immediately caught by the hotel security and taken to the police station", which made the guests feel a lot more relieved, and some of these guests specially checked in early to participate in this auction.

Early the next morning, Speaker Hartmann heard that there was a thief on the eve of the auction, and he almost succeeded, so he sent a housekeeper to condole, repeatedly apologized for the security situation of Crossbell, and in order to ensure the smooth holding of the auction, elites have been selected from the Crossbell Police Department to participate in the defense, and at the same time, the speaker also said that the mayor of Crossbell City will be invited to participate in the auction.

The hunting regiment has always been self-contained, and has always been uninterested in organizations such as the police, but this is the good intention of the speaker, so they have to accept it. At noon, a team of policemen came to explore the scene and strengthen the security, and the young policeman led by Duchamp was in awe as soon as he introduced his identity.

"I'm Alex Dudley from the Search Division 1 of the Crossbell City Police Department, and I heard that you were the first to find a thief sneaking into the Delphinium Hotel last night, so please elaborate on the situation."

As soon as Goethe spoke, Duchamp knew that something was wrong. "Officer, we will handle our own affairs, so please leave with your people."

Duchamp rushed over, covered Goethe's mouth, and said to Goethe: "Where are you going to play cool, I will introduce the situation last night." He turned to Officer Dudley and said, "I am one of the organizers of this jewelry auction, and I found last night's jewelry, so let me introduce the details." ”

After sending Goethe away, Duchamp courteously asked the waiter to serve coffee and tea to each police officer, and Officer Dudley was already unhappy when he saw that there were so many armed security guards of unknown origin in the hotel, and Goethe's words made his face even more iron, and said: "We are policemen, so we don't have to bother with hospitality, or please directly introduce the details of last night." ”

Duchamp was not in the hotel last night, but he couldn't stand it, and he said seven or eight points about last night's situation, but changed the final ending to:

"The whole floor had woken up, and when I opened the door, there was smoke in the hallway, and I thought, where can this thief go, the most suspicious thing is the dock. Without saying a word, I ran to the pier, and when I got to the pier, I saw a tall figure with a man under my feet. Before I could speak, the man threw a large bag of jewels into my arms, almost knocking me down, only to hear the man say, "Be careful, don't let the thief take things away", lift the man at his feet, get on the dock and go away. I didn't bother to look at him, so I was busy opening the bag and seeing that the jewels were all in it, and there were quite a few of them. ”

After listening to this, Dudley nodded with satisfaction and said, "The situation you introduced is basically consistent with the situation we have. Duchamp was surprised and delighted, and said: "It turns out that the adult last night was the policeman of your city, he is really wise and powerful, and I worship the ability of the policeman of your city to the ground, please allow me to express my gratitude here." ”

Dudley's face was slightly embarrassed, and he was secretly annoyed that it wasn't the police who solved the incident. After putting away the records, he looked around for security. Duchamp knew that the police in Crossbell City had a deep contradiction with Speaker Hartmann, and he also had a lot of thoughts about the Empire, so he nodded his head all the way and was too attentive.

When he had sent the poker-faced detective away, Duchamp let out a sigh of relief, straightened his back, and returned to his room.

"There are so many cops out there, you can't try to backtrack, right?"

"Miss Juliet, I think you are too worried, there was an attempted theft last night, and it is natural for the police to come to investigate the scene, not to mention that we have already negotiated the conditions, as long as the guerrillas confirm the information, you can leave." Duchamp looked helplessly at the difficult prisoner in the room.

At this time, under the supervision of the two chasseurs, Ah Jiu, who had nothing to do, was holding a magnifying glass, turning the big ring over and over, trying to figure out the structure in the magic crystal. On the coffee table next to it, there are all kinds of high-end pastries and fruits, all of which are to stabilize this invisible lady.

Duchamp couldn't help but roll his eyes, how could the embedded spell of the natural magic crystal be so easy to crack, even the most advanced research institutions in the world were helpless, and human beings were far inferior to the magic beasts in terms of mastery of magic.

"I said you better save your worries, even the laboratory of the Epstein Foundation has not succeeded in releasing any spells that increase the body's affinity for energy."

Ah Jiu reluctantly withdrew her attention from the magic crystal, and put the ring on her index finger, the ring was a little loose, and she pushed it up hard.

"Do you want me to help you change it?"

"No, you don't." Ah Jiu was full of refusal, with a look of caution that you don't want to take it back.

"Cut, I haven't seen the world, brother has hundreds of big rings to auction tomorrow." Duchamp couldn't help but shudder.

"Humph!" Ah Jiu remembered the jewelry boxes that had been swept away by her, she ran her index finger in the air and asked, "Where is this magic crystal produced?" ”

"Gatapunia. Do you know that place? Close to the Lianyun Mountain Range, this is the mutated demonic beast from the beast tide last winter. ”

"One of the Four Murderous Lands!" Ah Jiu muttered, and she suddenly realized that this was most likely an opportunity to rip off the bamboo.

She ran up to Duchamp, her eyes winking, "Hey, you go get me a few more rings like this, and I'll go through my door and help you inquire about the whereabouts of those people." If your sincerity is enough, I can also ask a respected senior to help you spread the word and resolve your crisis, how about it? ”

"What, you want to get another one?"

"Of course, it's better to get ten, one for each finger." Ah Jiu stretched out ten white and tender fingers, imagining the crispness of wearing a full buff ring.

"Alas, it's terrible to be uneducated!" Duchamp shook his head, and lay down lazily on the couch, ignoring the money-hungry girl.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Ah Jiu turned his head dissatisfiedly and glared at Duchamp.

"The magic gain that the human body can accept is limited, and if you wear it too much, there will be mutual interference and repulsion, so it is enough to hang two or three magic items on a person's body. And with the same buff effect, even if you have a full body, there is only one item that has an effect. Duchamp said, and couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Ah Jiu felt that his life had fallen into a low ebb all of a sudden.

With the policeman's uncle at the scene, there were no thieves to visit that night. On the third day, May 5, at two o'clock in the afternoon, the Patek Philippe Magic Jewelry Auction began on time, and among the distinguished guests was an old gentleman with an extraordinary temperament, McDowell, the mayor of Crossbell. After he made a brief statement, Speaker Hartmann spoke again, and then the auction began.

At the auction site, Patek Philippe's advertising posters were hung: the magic of time, the magic of health. Sir Lincoln took the stage to explain the meaning of the slogan:

"Patek Philippe's magic jewellery was born out of the idea that 'we can't rejuvenate, but we can make time stand still and make youth last.'" The magic jewels we brought to Crossbell this time are divided into three categories, the first type enriches people's bodies, makes people's movements more convenient and their limbs stronger; The second type is to enrich people's spirits, so that people's spirits are more focused and more responsive; The third category, which I would like to recommend, is the first jewelry that can improve people's health, keep the body in a state of good essence at any time, and can trigger healing spells at critical moments, note that anyone can wear this effect close to the body. ”

There was a sensation at the venue, which was not stated in the previous invitation, Duchamp was on the edge of the venue, smiling proudly, and he received a full purchase ** from the venue.

After Sir Lincoln finished speaking, King Rayham III went up and made another advertisement: "Although now, by modern technology, synthetic crystals can also contain certain spells, magic has always been mysterious and noble, and what can be simulated by man is only the most crude part of the spells formed by nature." Moreover, the value preservation value of natural magic crystals can never be compared with artificial crystals. ”

The condensation of Patek Philippe's products into three functions was a deliberate suggestion from Duchamp, who tried to instill in Baron Theresa the idea that Patek Philippe would eventually become a health jewellery brand, away from the destructive magic, in order to win the most buyers.

And now, the enthusiastic response at the auction has verified Duchamp's vision, buying a piece of jewelry back to prevent accidents, or buying a piece of jewelry to go back to make yourself younger and more beautiful, which is more attractive to normal people, of course, the latter.

After speaking, Mayor McDowell was arranged to sit with King Raem III, and the two old gentlemen seemed quite like-minded. At the auction, Mayor McDowell also bid on an accessory that would make the body lighter, a type of jewelry that is popular among the elderly.

Jewels that have a constant water healing magic are put up for auction at the end, these jewels are shining, exuding an aqua blue light, most of them are made into necklace styles, the appearance of the jewelry itself is enough to make the ladies crazy, none of this kind of jewelry sold for less than 200,000 meters, and some of the fine products were sold for millions of meters. Speaker Hartman also held up a sign in this section and bid for a men's pendant.

Duchamp casually calculated, and knew that the harvest of this auction would be twice as much as that of the imperial capital. As soon as he turned around, he saw Ah Jiu poking his brain outside the auction hall.
