Chapter 263 The Auction from the "Devil" (4)
All five children were "rescued" by Song Qianyi, and the main event of the auction was about to begin.
Many people come here specifically for this reason.
The staff then pulled up another iron cage covered with red velvet.
The staff slowly lifted the red velvet lid, revealing an iron cage inside, in which was a girl of about thirteen or fourteen years old.
Her eyes were vacant, her face was full of terror and despair, and her body was curled up in the corner, trembling.
Even so, one could still see that she had delicate features and fair skin, and was wearing a worn but clean set of clothes.
The auctioneer's voice rang out again.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the grand finale of this auction. The starting price is five million, and each bid must be at least five hundred thousand higher!"
The audience erupted in uproar; the starting price was significantly higher than that of the previous children.
But the crowd's eyes burned even brighter, clearly filled with anticipation for this final item.
The man in the owl mask broke the silence first, his high-pitched voice revealing an barely suppressed urgency.
"Six million!"
He stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, his eyes gleaming with greed.
He was already imagining what it would be like if he brought the girl home...
The man in the cobra mask was also very interested in the girl and quickly raised the price.
"Six and a half million!"
His voice was cold, and his eyes revealed a ruthless determination to succeed.
The woman in the butterfly mask also giggled and held up a sign.
"Seven million!"
The twisted desire in her eyes grew stronger, and the gemstone ring on her hand gleamed eerily in the dim light.
Looking at the girl in the cage, Song Qianyi felt a mixture of anger and pity.
She knew these people had a more sinister purpose in coveting the girl.
Song Qianyi nodded slightly to the second department head, her gaze firm.
The second secretary immediately understood, raised the sign without hesitation, and shouted, "Ten million!"
This shout was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, plunging the entire arena into deathly silence once again.
Everyone was shocked by the huge price increase and turned their attention to Song Qianyi.
The man in the owl mask frowned, a hint of displeasure and resentment flashing in his eyes. He gritted his teeth.
"Eleven million!"
The second secretary knew that Song Qianyi wanted this child.
"Fifteen million!"
The second student's voice was clear and loud, standing out particularly in the tense atmosphere.
The man in the cobra mask had a gloomy expression; he hadn't expected Song Qianyi to be so resolute and wealthy.
He weighed the pros and cons in his mind. Continuing to raise the price would mean paying a huge price, but giving up was something he was really unwilling to do.
After hesitating for a moment, he shouted, "Sixteen million five hundred thousand!"
Song Qianyi looked at him, her eyes showing no fear or hesitation, and calmly said, "Twenty million!"
This time, the woman in the butterfly mask shook her head and put down the sign in her hand. She knew she could no longer compete with Song Qianyi.
The man in the cobra mask trembled slightly, his fists clenched, and veins bulged on his forehead.
He looked at Song Qianyi, his eyes filled with resentment, but in the end he helplessly put down the sign, "I'm withdrawing."
Now, only Song Qianyi and the man in the owl mask remain on the field.
A sinister look appeared on the man's face as he glared menacingly at Song Qianyi.
"You woman, you've ruined so many of my plans, I'm not finished with you today! Twenty-one million!"
Song Qianyi gave a cold laugh and remained silent.
Immediately afterwards, the voice of the second person echoed throughout the entire auction hall.
"Twenty-five million!"
The man in the owl mask looked extremely ugly, and his eyes were filled with madness.
The man in the owl mask glared, his facial muscles contorted with rage, and he roared.
"Twenty-six million!"
At this moment, he was completely blinded by greed and anger, utterly disregarding the cost behind the exorbitant price.
Song Qianyi's expression remained calm and composed.
Without hesitation, the second player raised his paddle again, his voice steady and loud, "Thirty million!"
This price was like a bombshell, plunging the entire auction hall into a suffocating silence.
Everyone stared wide-eyed, unable to believe that the auction had reached such a frenzied level.
During the bidding for the last "item," Song Qianyi received a message from Katiesa.
Now we just wait for Song Qianyi to "rescue" the girl.
If the owl-masked man gives up this time, Song Qianyi will directly shout "fifty million".
Anyway, her "unlimited credit card" is only valid for this auction.
