Now this elevator is still empty, no one is there. The three people walked into the elevator together.
But Meng Fei knew that in about half an hour, that is, close to 7:30, Xu Zheng's men would start taking action.
At that time, Ged, surrounded by agents, would use this elevator to go from the penthouse to Room 4027 to prepare for his speech.
After that time, the elevator will be temporarily out of service. The elevator will be guarded by two agents at all times.
The speech started at eight o'clock and ended ten minutes later. At 8:30 at the latest, Ged returned to his mansion safely. The elevator is released again.
After that time, the elevator became operational again. The auction will not end until everyone uses this elevator to leave.
But this restriction has no effect on him and Suzaku. Because they can leave at any time through a secret elevator guarded by agents.
As the red numbers in the elevator continued to decrease, it finally stopped at floor 4.1 and the elevator door opened.
What Meng Fei and Zhuque saw was a simple small room, with two waiters in white shirts and black trousers wearing bow ties standing respectfully.
There is no need to show any tickets or invitation credentials. Using this elevator and being here at this time is a passport in itself.
The waiter held the tray in his hand and handed each of them a small black bag.
Meng Fei opened the weightless black bag and found that it turned out to be a folded black silk robe.
This silk robe is shaped like a poncho without sleeves. The difference is that even the face has no openings.
Once it is put on, the whole body is covered tightly and nothing can be seen from the outside.
But the robe itself is very thin and loose, and there is no feeling of obstruction when looking out from inside. It’s okay to even play with your phone with your head down in your robe.
A look of regret appeared on Galen's covered face. Because Miss Zhu’s perfect face was also covered.
"Our auction will do our best to protect the privacy of our guests. Dear guests, please feel free to trade, but please try to keep your voice down when talking."
They all put on black silk robes to guard them, and the three waiters reminded them carefully. Meng Fei nodded slightly and walked in.
When we arrived at the living room of the suite, there were many seats like a classroom, and many people were already sitting there. There are not many empty seats left.
Suzaku pulled Meng Fei's hand through the black robe, and the two found two empty seats connected together and sat down, leaving Galen to who knows where.
The auction site is not as luxurious and relaxing as the "Private Customized Salon".
There were no windows, the milky-white lights were very dazzling, and people in black robes crowded the living room, making the atmosphere quite dull.
The silk black robe blocked outside sight and surrounded him like a vague mist.
But that didn't stop him from playing with his phone.
Meng Fei flipped through the news. But the recent news in this world has almost no other content except that Qingmang and Taotie continue to slander each other, full of negative energy.
He opened WeChat again.
"Honey, what do you think I'm doing?"
Flirting with your wife on WeChat is a difficult challenge.
I don’t know why before marriage, Ai Ting basically responded to every flirtation, but after marriage, she became quite indifferent. Most of the time she doesn't reply.
Her lack of reply was not because she was too lazy to reply, but because she thought "it's such a boring topic to interrupt my business again" and just left it in silence.
Meng Fei always tries his best to find his wife's points of interest, but this is not an easy task.
After all, if you insist on saying it's boring, you can say that 90% of the things in this world have nothing to do with you and are all boring.
Over 60,000 people died from influenza epidemic in the Taotie Country...
The second-hand aircraft carrier purchased by Luohu State at a huge cost was finally launched for the second time...
Does she have anything to do with these nonsense? Boring or not?
Meng Fei was proud of himself for a while when he thought of the topic "Guess what I'm doing".
It’s impossible for you not to care about what your man is doing.
Is he killing people?
Is he committing a crime?
Is he flirting with other women?
"What are you doing?"
Sure enough, Ai Ting replied instantly.
"I'm attending a mysterious auction."
Ai Ting seemed speechless and reminded carefully:
"Isn't it going to be eight o'clock soon? What other auctions are you attending?"
"Well, about that, Xu Zheng has already arranged it."
Meng Fei explained quickly.
"My participation in this auction is also part of Xu Zheng's plan."
In order to heighten the tense atmosphere, Meng Fei looked at the dark figures around him.
"There are no windows here, the space is not big, but there are a lot of people. And everyone is wearing black robes and covering their faces. Maybe the killer is lurking among them."
Under the exaggeration of his success, Ai Ting, who was far away in the office of Mu Entang, suddenly felt creepy.
She almost jumped out of her seat.
"Why do you want to go if it's so dangerous? Who approved it? Xu Zheng?"
"It's actually not that dangerous."
Realizing that the exaggeration was overdone, Meng Fei quickly relaxed the atmosphere.
"It's just that the auction time coincides with Ged's appearance, and the location is not far away, so I came here just in case."
"Are you alone? Who else is with you?"
Meng Fei wanted to answer "Suzaku", but then he thought it would be better not to mention the other woman to his wife. So he changed his mind and replied:
"I am with Galen, son of Ged."
It's okay if I don't say it, but I get even more nervous when I mention Ai Ting. What she wanted to ask was his man's bodyguard. What was the use of a mortal like Galen?
"Where's An Sheng? Where's Xiao Han? Where have these people gone!"
"An Sheng is staying by Gade's side as a human shield. Xiao Han is on standby with the agents..."
"What about the Crested Ibis! Didn't she say..."
"The crested ibis is here."
Meng Fei quickly replied.
"All right……"
Ai Ting said with complicated emotions.
"Be careful."
"rest assured."
Meng Fei took advantage of her relaxation on this topic and quickly changed the subject.
"You've definitely never seen an auction like this."
"I've never seen an auction!"
Ai Ting emphasized.
Meng Fei took the time to glance up at the auction table.
You won’t know if you don’t look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it.
What the hell is this?
A beautiful gold cup was placed on the auction block. The spotlight cast just the right amount of snow-white light, making the dark golden trophy shine extremely brightly.
Isn't this the "Golden Goddess Cup" that was stolen in 1983? Didn't you say that it was melted by thieves? How come you are here?
After being shocked, Meng Fei remembered that this was in another world, and naturally there was no such thing as the theft of the Golden Goddess Cup in 1983.
"We won't introduce the value of this thing in detail. The starting price is one million Taotie coins, and each bid will be at least one hundred thousand Taotie coins. Please bid."
The auctioneer began simply.
"Who can confirm that this thing is genuine?"
"Specially guaranteed by this auction house for one month."
The so-called one-month special guarantee of the auction house means that if the buyer can prove that it is a fake within one month, the auction house will be responsible for refunding the money.
