Chapter 367: Hutong Up

In a remote alley next to a street in Hope City, a scavenger has a cigarette in his mouth. The flame on the cigarette butt flickered in the darkness of the night as the scavenger's lungs moved. Shui Marriage squatted aside, although his face pretended not to care. But his eyes were vigilantly staring at some cracks and dark and damp places in the corners of the alley, so as to prevent rats from coming out.

"What are we waiting for here? Didn't you say you were going to the night market? After a long silence, the water marriage finally asked. When the auction house was over, the scavenger walked out of his auction house without saying hello to the manager of the auction house, and then took a few turns in the street with the water marriage, came to this alley, squatted down, smoked and smoked without saying a word.

"You can go to the night market at any time, but you can't just see it. Since I met it today, I can't miss it. The scavenger's lips flickered, and the butt of the cigarette that had only been left flew out of the window, just falling into a small puddle in the corner, and the last bit of light in the dark alley disappeared. Even though the water marriage and the scavenger were close at hand, they looked at each other and saw each other a little blurred. Of course, the vision of the blurred knowledge water marriage, the scavenger whose body has completed the fourth step of evolution, in such a faint light, the vision is not affected.

"Watching a play? What kind of play to watch? Shui Marriage looked at the scavenger puzzled, and then Shui Marriage seemed to remember something and said in surprise: "You said that the person who bought the treasure map just now will pass by here?" ”

It's not unfounded speculation that Water Marriage says this. Just now, the last auction item in the auction house, that one was not interested at first. The pale picture that was hyped to a sky-high price as if everyone was discerning is undoubtedly the most eye-catching auction item today.

The treasure map was later bought by a mysterious player in a box. None of the players who can be in the breadbox at the Scavenger Auction House are simple. Because with the continued popularity of scavenger auction houses in Hope City, the cost of boxes is naturally rising. For the average player, the box of the scavenger auction house is far away from the presidential suite of a five-star hotel.

Therefore, the treasure map was bought by the guests in the 666 box, while ordinary buyers lamented the gap between the rich and themselves. I can't help but be curious about the identities of the players in this box. However, the boxes at the Scavenger Auction are not membership-based. There is also a one-time payment system.

The one-time payment system is naturally aimed at those who want to keep their identities secret, these people have capital but can't stay in one place for long because of personal or professional reasons. And yearn for the secrecy of his identity, so the scavenger auction house has prepared a one-time paid box for such players.

The price of a one-time paid box is more expensive than the price of a membership-based box, and it is a one-shot sale, and after an auction, everyone goes their separate ways and does not know each other. And the mysterious player who finally auctioned off the treasure map at a sky-high price of 100 million belongs to this kind of person who occasionally passes by places to play tickets.

Even the scavenger auction house, which is the proprietor, has no idea about the identity and origin of this person except for a man sitting in the box behind it. In fact, this kind of one-time payment to entertain this kind of box is not available in many auction houses.

It's not that the auction houses look down on this kind of one-shot income. You must know that this kind of one-time paid box belongs to the kind of box that will not be open for three years. The type that has been open for three years. Occasionally, the owner of the auction house will be happy to meet one. This is because the one-time cost of this kind of box is very expensive.

And the reason why it is so profitable is that there are many auction houses that do not open this kind of box has nothing to do with whether they make money or not, this is related to their own strength. It is said that it is not a raptor but a river, especially this kind of dragon that belongs to the nature of playing tickets, and is even a dangerous person in the first place.

If he is invited into the auction hall and he has nothing to do with it and has no money, then it is not a burden for these people to rob them directly. Therefore, if the auction house itself does not have absolute strength, it will definitely lead the wolf into the house.

So for this kind of cross-river dragon walking in the dark, ordinary players feel curious and yearning, and feel that their mystery is cool. Auction houses, on the other hand, are wary of such presence, like blacklists in casinos. Once you meet such a person, you will directly turn it away, and if you accidentally let such a person sneak in. That will also be very polite to ask you to go out. Sometimes it's normal to use force directly, but in short, you can't let them stay in their own territory for long.

And since the professional manager sent by Ouyang Boyan to the scavengers took over the auction house, this dangerous part has become a tool to make money. Of course, this transformation is based on the fact that there are more than 100 real-life killer security guards present at every moment in the auction house.

It is said that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, not to mention the presence of 100 well-trained security guards who have killed people and served as soldiers in reality. Even if a real dragon comes, it can take off a few beards of the other party, plus the electronic weapons established by Peach Eye in the hidden place of the auction hall, and at the same time, the 360-degree surveillance will always transmit the surveillance footage to the underground security room. Under such security measures, even if a Raptors really come in, they have to be coiled.

"I don't know if he'll pass through here, but this is the only street in the neighborhood that leads to the garbage dump outside the city." The scavenger shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said. I have been squatting here for half an hour for this kind of seemingly pure luck, and I don't feel the slightest inappropriateness if I don't ask about the water marriage.

"What is he doing at the garbage dump outside the city?" Water Marriage takes a few deep breaths. Holding back the anger that welled up in his heart, he asked as flat as he could.

"I'm not him, how do I know what he's doing at the garbage dump outside the city?" The scavenger pursed his lips and reached out to wipe it from his chest, as if he wanted to light another cigarette.

"You ......," the scavenger's answer made the anger in the heart of the water marriage, who had been holding back the anger, instantly erupt, wanting to pounce on and bite the scavenger twice.

As soon as the auction was over, the scavenger mysteriously came here and waited here for more than half an hour. The water marriage was worried for more than half an hour, and the final result was that the scavenger seemed to be a nonsensical guess. This made the water marriage endure the fear that rats and cockroaches would emerge from the dark corners, and all of them turned into hatred for the scavengers.

"Shhhhh......h

The water marriage that wanted to bite the scavenger was stunned by the scavenger's actions, and he reacted randomly that he was actually held in the arms of the scavenger, and his face couldn't help but become hot. The heartbeat involuntarily began to accelerate. Then a minute passed, and Shui Marriage felt like her body was boiling hot. Then three minutes passed, and the boiling heat began to turn into suspicion, and five minutes later, the anger in the heart of the water marriage was like a suppressed volcano about to erupt.

"Hmm......" Just when Shui Marriage felt that all this was a scavenger entertaining himself and wanted to explode, his mouth was suddenly covered by the scavenger. He already thought that he had seen through the boring nature of the scavenger, and wanted to resist, but his body instantly became stiff. Then the anger in his heart instantly turned to surprise and astonishment.

At this time, at the entrance of the alley, a figure was thinking about coming this way. Although he has not seen the person who took the treasure map, the water marriage is not sure if the person who came over is the player who took the treasure map. But there is a strong sense of danger when I see this person in the water marriage.

This player is very cautious, but he doesn't know why he walked into the darkness of the alley, but he breathed a sigh of relief. It's like a person who is extremely cautious outside, suddenly returns to his own home and subconsciously relaxes. Just a few steps into the alley, the player's figure and the shadow in the alley merge together, if it weren't for the fact that the player paid attention to him at the beginning of the water marriage in the alley, just these few steps of the water marriage would not be able to find each other.

The player's aura became vague as the figure and the darkness fused together, but after a few more steps forward, the player stopped, and although he couldn't see him in the shadows, Mizuki felt that the player seemed to be stirring his nose, as if he smelled the smoke that had lingered here a few minutes ago.

"Who's coming out?" The player who hides himself in the shadows shouts into the alley, and the sound reverberates through the silence.

The water marriage who was covering his mouth squinted at the scavenger, as if he was blaming him for smoking here before he was discovered by the other party. However, the aura on the scavenger's body did not fluctuate in the slightest, as if the other party was shouting as if it was not his own. (To be continued......)
