New York, USA.

As the largest city and the largest port in the United States, New York can be said to have achieved the ultimate prosperity, the world's financial center, the world's largest metropolitan area, and the world's first-tier city...... The titles are louder than the other.

At night, Manhattan is still brightly lit, a skyscraper hundreds of meters high, and a spacious underground parking lot full of luxury cars, the last one is an old Bentley worth $700,000, and the parking spaces are all occupied, and none of them are empty.

At this time, the building is "fully armed", with entrances and exits, escape routes, and fire escapes...... All passages are guarded by sturdy security personnel, and even the ventilation ducts are installed with microgrids, and the uniform black super and black suits make the security personnel full of deterrence just standing there.

Tonight, there will be an auction in this building that is not public, and it is a mystery that it is not public, and all the people who participate in this auction are billionaires.

Of course, the exception always comes when the conversation is too much, and the arrival of Andre and others makes this auction less "expensive".

The four stood on the red carpet, lifted up by a brilliantly decorated elevator.

"I knew that I would have driven a better car, it would be too disgraceful." Andre was still entangled in the embarrassment of the parking lot, "It's all to blame Luo Cheng's kid, he must be deliberately retaliating, go back and see if I don't kill him!" ”

That's right, the oldest Bentley in the underground parking lot is his, and he rented it.

When he saw the off-road vehicle prepared by his subordinates, he was furious, driving an off-road vehicle worth only 100,000 dollars to participate in the top auction? I'm afraid that if he can't get to the parking lot, he will be stopped by the security personnel with suspicious eyes, how can he look like a rich man? It's more like a vicious robber, but if he can drive a 100,000-dollar off-road vehicle, the robber must not be the kind of person who has no way out.

As a "rich man" who is bound to win the finale of the auction, it is obviously not appropriate to drive an off-road vehicle to participate in a top-level auction, especially an off-road vehicle worth only 100,000 US dollars, so Andre rented a luxury car.

However, what he didn't expect was that even if he rented an old Bentley worth $700,000, Andre was still embarrassed by the scrutinizing eyes of the security personnel.

If his eyes could speak, he would surely hear things like "Is this house qualified?" and he firmly believed that.

"Let people know that the car is rented, you should thank me, thank me for not saying 'how much is the rent' just now." Gorman, who was standing next to Andrei, said.

Andre turned his head to look at him and grinned: "If you dare to say it, I will dare to you!" ”

Gorman glanced at him and grinned the same: "Afraid of you? A wave of mutual action? ”

"Hey, there are girls, open the house before driving, don't you understand this simple truth?" Behind the two, Chen Tao, who was leaning against the sedan wall, reminded the two lightly.

"I don't understand bird language." Chen Yuetong shallowly sarcastically waved.

Coughing lightly twice, and adjusting his tie again, Andre regained the majesty of the head of the order department, turned back to Chen Tao and said, "That...... Call and ask Mokaiser which room they are in. ”

Yichen, Mo Kaize, and Lu Xuan, they came first. In the same way as Andre thought, they also rented a luxury car, which was only slightly better than Andrey's old Bentley at the bottom.

"The brain is rusty, there is no signal." Chen Tao gave Andre a roll of his eyes, "The signal has been gone since entering the parking lot, and the auction company has blocked the signal of the entire building." ”

"It's your brain that's rusty, turn on your micron headphones and try them to see if there's a signal." Andrei snorted and gave him a mocking smile in return.

Chen Tao turned on the micron headphones in disbelief, and sure enough, there was a signal, and he heard the prompt tone of the grid, and the signal was full.

Looking at Chen Tao, who was a little stunned, Andre smiled with satisfaction: "The system of the auction company does not operate independently, as long as there is contact with the outside world, the grid can come in, even if it is the simplest data exchange." If you can come in, the lattice can be connected to a data wristband and a micron headset. ”

Chentao understood that there was no wireless and wired, and the auction company blocked the signal and used wired equipment to contact the outside world.

Even if the bad guys infiltrated the building, they could not always communicate with them with wired equipment, and the security department put a lot of effort into communication.

"Okay, it's time for you to call, be quiet, there's a camera in the elevator." Andre gave Chen Tao another smile and looked back.

"You're awesome, such a great person shouldn't care about a little money." Gorman tilted his head and whispered in Andre's ear, "The money for renting a car is deducted from your annual salary." ”

"What did you say!" Andre glared and glared angrily, "Gorman, you have the ability to say it again!" ”

Gorman retracted his head, looked straight ahead, lifted the collar of his black suit with both hands, and said unhurriedly, "I think I will participate in the auction in an off-road vehicle...... Nothing bad. ”

"You! You! You...... Yes! I'm going crazy! Andrei's frantic voice echoed through the spacious elevator.

.

.

.

Before the auction began, the arriving VIPs were led into the waiting rooms by the attentive hostesses to take a break.

Pushing open the three-meter-high solid wood door, the warm yellow European-style crystal chandelier and the recessed water flow light strip warm the wide space, the bright floor tiles are almost covered with soft pure wool carpets, the sofa and tables and chairs are all solid wood, there is a fresh fruit plate on the table, behind the sofa is the wine cabinet, fitness room, movie room, tea room...... Entertainment and leisure venues are available, and the waiting room is even higher than the suites of high-end hotels.

The luxury of the conference room alone can be seen in the strength of this national auction company, and it can also be seen in disguise how strong the financial resources of the VIPs participating in the auction are.

Based on the number of VIPs participating in the auction, an estimated one-third of the building's space is used as a waiting room.

In one of the waiting rooms, Yichen stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass, looking down at the bustling city night scene, but his face did not have the slightest pleasure or nervousness to participate in the top auction, but revealed a look of difficulty.

"Is there any news of Zhen'er?" Ai Xue's voice came from the micron earphones, crisp with a faint anxiety and worry.

"Not yet, I should still be cooperating with Interpol in the investigation of the case." Yichen lied helplessly, this was the seventh call Ai Xue had made to him about asking Yan Zhen'er.

He was also helpless in this matter, he knew Wanyan Zhen'er's position in Ai Xue's heart, Wanyan Zhen'er could be said to be a knot in Ai Xue's heart since childhood, and it was because he knew that he couldn't tell Ai Xue the truth of the matter, even if he said "Wanyan Zhen'er is a bad person", he was afraid that Ai Xue would not accept it, and he was afraid that Ai Xue would be sad.

I don't blush when I lie, it's really hypocritical, looking at myself reflected in the floor-to-ceiling glass, Yichen laughed at himself in his heart.

"Even if you cooperate with the police to investigate the case, you can't go without news for half a month." Ai Xue voiced her doubts.

"As you know, Interpol has strict confidentiality measures for important cases, and people involved in cases are not allowed to contact the outside world." Yichen could only forcibly explain.

"I don't know." Ai Xue felt like she had eaten gunpowder.

"Uh-how am I going to answer that?" Yichen's expression froze.

After being silent for half a minute, Ai Xue asked a series of questions: "Can you contact Interpol?" Do you know that pretty girl? Isn't she Interpol? Can you ask her? ”

Lu Xuan? Yichen was stunned.

"Are you listening?"

"Yes, but I don't have the girl's contact information, I've only seen her once, and she took the initiative to contact me." Glancing at Lu Xuan reading a book on the sofa, Yichen decided to lie to the end, and prayed in his heart that Lu Xuan didn't say too much at that time.

"Oh, then...... Let's do it first, I'm going to sleep, and you go to bed early. Ai Xue's voice came a few seconds later, and then the phone was hung up, not giving Yichen the slightest chance to speak.

Yichen looked at himself in the glass with a complicated expression, how did he feel that if he didn't find out Wanyan Zhen'er, he might lose his girlfriend?

Depressed and uncertain, this is the first time he has seen Ai Xue in this state, in his impression Ai Xue has always been a happy girl, even if she encounters something sad, she will not be unable to give up.

It can be seen from this that Wanyan Zhen'er's disappearance hit Ai Xue very hard.

Blame the damn Wind King Palace, the damn Fulshk! He wrinkled his brows, squeezed his eyes hard for a while, and opened his mouth and gritted his teeth fiercely, expressing his mental state of being about to go crazy.

Mo Kaize is on the treadmill in the fitness room, the speed and slope are adjusted to the maximum, his face is slightly red, and he is slightly panting, he has been running for more than an hour, twenty kilometers, this is not his limit, but it is the limit of the treadmill.

The slightly dull gaze shows that he is absent-minded in running, running in a daze, but fortunately on the treadmill, otherwise it will definitely become a disaster in the eyes of the owner, the focus of avoidance.

[Dao Sword Dust Crown] did not come back after all.

In fact, the day after handing over the [Dao Sword Dust Crown], he knew that the [Dao Sword Dust Crown] would not come back. Wanyan Zhen'er is the Wind King Palace, how could the Wind King Palace have no way to prevent the [Dao Sword Dust Crown] from returning to him?

It's just that he still had hope for [Dao Sword Dust Crown], and it wasn't until today, half a month later, that the last glimmer of hope he had for [Dao Sword Dust Crown] was shattered with his stunned mind.

"I said, scrapping the treadmill is a good goal, but I don't have that much time for you right now." Yichen walked in eating a banana, and the banana peel fell into the trash can in a graceful arc in the air.

"The auction has begun?" Mo Kaize turned the treadmill mode to slow walking, and wiped the sweat with the towel around his neck.

"Twenty more minutes." Yichen glanced at the time, "Your teacher has arrived, and he seems to be very angry, and that stingy director Brunie can't get out of it." ”

Mo Kaize gave him a strange look, raised his hand and pointed behind him.

Yichen turned his head back suspiciously, just in time to see a big face with staring eyes, he was so frightened that he turned around and took two steps back in succession, patting his chest to relieve the fright: "Bu, Director Brunie, do you want to ...... It's scary. ”

"What are you saying bad things about me?" Gorman said gloomily, no matter how much he stared at his small eyes, he could not show deterrence.

"No, no, how could it be possible to speak ill of you? Don't dare to give me another guts. Yichen said with a smile.

"Less, I've heard it all." Gorman squinted again, giving the impression that he was trying to find a way to get revenge.

"Uh-director, don't deduct my annual salary, as long as you don't deduct my annual salary, I'll listen to you." In order to keep his pocket money, Yichen can still beg with a bitter face.

Gorman, who held the financial power, sat on the barbell chair, nodded his head and said, "If you want me to deduct your annual salary, you can, promise me one thing." ”

"What's the matter?" Yichen said suspiciously, he smelled the smell of conspiracy.

Gorman beckoned to him and motioned for him to sit down.

Yichen sat on the barbell chair, but kept a certain distance from him.

"The mystery seller asked this auction to cancel the bidding bell, and adopted the original bidding method of raising a sign to bid for a bid, and you are the designated bidder of the club this time, and you will raise a bid in your personal name." A meaningful smile crossed Gorman's face.

Yichen moved his ass back until the edge of the barbell chair and stopped: "Director, you're not kidding me, are you?" Let me bid? Is there any mistake? I'm just a ...... who hasn't seen the world Decrepit, yes, decrepit. ”

"That's right, it's a good opportunity to see the world." Gorman patted him on the shoulder and cheered, "You have to believe in yourself, the club looks at you, you are an invisible person, no one is more suitable than you." ”

"Really?" Yichen's body couldn't help but straighten up, obviously being praised a little floating, but then his momentum declined, "Bidding in my own name, how can I have so much money?" ”

"You don't have it, the brick warehouse does." Gorman put his hand in his arms and pulled out a card for a long time, making one wonder how many pockets he had in his suit.

It was an all-black card, with no patterns, no text, no front and back, frosted on both sides.

After a few strokes, Gorman carefully handed the card to Yichen, and his reluctant eyes seemed to say goodbye to his own son.

Yichen wanted to take the card, but found that Gorman was holding the card tightly, and said helplessly: "Director, if the brick warehouse doesn't pay for it, I can't participate in the auction, you won't expect my pocket money to be able to auction the finale, right?" ”

Listening to Yichen's words, Gorman gritted his teeth, let go of his hand, waved his hand and said, "Take it, take it." ”

"Isn't it just a card? Like a baby, how much money can you have? Yichen stared at the black in his hand. The card looked and found that he did not recognize, "What kind of card is this?" Why haven't you seen it? ”

"Of course you haven't seen it, there are only four of them in the world." Gorman looked at him with a redneck look, "Don't you look down on this card?" Do you know how much money is in this card? In terms of financial resources alone, it is enough to buy a country. ”

Buy the next country! Yi Chen's eyes widened suddenly, he didn't know how much it would cost to buy a country, but as long as it wasn't the kind of country with a small area or a very underdeveloped economy, its price would definitely be astronomical.

"Bid for the finale, each time the price is not less than 10 million US dollars, you remember, it will be 11 million plus 10 million, dare to mess with you afterwards I will kill you! Do you hear that? Gorman said with a fierce expression, as if every time the price was raised, it was cutting his flesh.

"I heard it, I heard it." Yichen chick nodded in the style of pecking rice.

"The auction is on, and it's gone." Andrei's shouts came from outside into the fitness room.

"Finally, let me tell you a few words, do you know who people can't see? There are two kinds of people, those who are deeper than the people and those who are ...... Idiot. Unfortunately, you're not the former. Gorman smiled, got up and walked out.

"I ......" Yichen was speechless.

"Let's go, stupid." Mo Kaize teased.
