Chapter 260 The Auction from the "Devil" (1)

The invitation included an extra thin metal card, its intricate patterns and codes gleaming eerily in the dim light.

After Song Qianyi and Xi Er put on their masks, they entered the passage.

The lights in the corridor were dim and flickering, as if they might go out at any moment, and the light and shadow on the walls danced like ghosts.

As you walk along the winding path, you can faintly hear a commotion ahead; it sounds like people are talking in hushed tones.

As the footsteps drew closer, the sound became clearer.

It's the sound of people discussing the auction items.

As they stepped through that heavy door, a wave of heat, carrying with it luxury and mystery, washed over them.

Beneath the enormous dome, a magnificent crystal chandelier casts a dazzling light, illuminating the entire hall as if it were daytime.

The hall was filled with tables and chairs, and all sorts of people sat there in a haphazard arrangement. They all wore masks, revealing only pairs of eyes that gleamed with curiosity and greed.

The auction stage was located at the far end of the hall, covered with a dark red velvet cloth, and the "items" to be auctioned were also covered with the same red velvet.

A masked waiter walked gracefully and silently to Song Qianyi and Xi Er's side.

He bowed slightly, his gaze lingered on the two of them for a moment, and then fell on the invitation in Song Qianyi's hand.

The waiter extended his white-gloved hand, gently took the invitation, and carefully examined it.

After confirming that everything was correct, the waiter gave a perfectly timed smile.

Despite being covered by a mask, one could still sense his well-trained politeness in his eyes.

"This way, you two, please."

His voice was deep and gentle, like a babbling brook, and stood out clearly in the noisy auction hall.

Song Qianyi and Xi Er followed behind the waiter, walking through the hall filled with tables and chairs.

The people around them were whispering amongst themselves, completely ignoring Song Qianyi and her companion.

The waiter led them to a corner location where they could clearly see the auction stage.

This location offers a good opportunity to avoid excessive public attention while still allowing for a clear observation of the entire auction process.

"I hope you two have a pleasant time here."

The waiter bowed slightly again and then quietly left.

Song Qianyi and Xi Er slowly sat down. The chairs were made of high-quality leather, soft and comfortable.

But at that moment, they had no time to appreciate the luxury.

His eyes were fixed on the items covered in red velvet on the auction stage, and he was filled with vigilance.

At this moment, the auctioneer walked onto the auction stage. He was dressed in a gorgeous black suit and wore an exquisite silver mask, revealing only a pair of sharp and shrewd eyes.

The auction gavel tapped lightly on the table, producing a crisp sound that instantly drew everyone's attention.

"Distinguished guests, welcome to this mysterious and unique auction."

The auctioneer's voice was highly engaging and clearly transmitted to every corner of the hall through the equipment.

"Today, we have prepared a series of exquisite items for you, which we believe will be a feast for your eyes and make your trip worthwhile."

As the auctioneer's magnetic voice faded, two burly attendants, also wearing masks, dragged out an "item" covered in velvet from backstage.

At the raw stone auction on the first floor, Katie had already met up with Yuezi Mu's people.

The people who came were Gao Heng, whom we had met before, and an official from the US.

At the auction on the second basement level.

The auctioneer abruptly lifted the red velvet curtain.

It's an iron cage!

The iron cage bars were covered in rust and had some unidentified dark stains.

It looked out of place in the magnificent hall, yet it was incredibly jarring.

Several figures were huddled in the cage. When they got closer, Song Qianyi and Xi Er realized that they were children.

The youngest was only five or six years old, and the oldest was only thirteen or fourteen.

Their clothes were tattered, their bodies were covered in dust and wounds, and their eyes revealed fear and helplessness.

Although she already knew what the auction was about, Song Qianyi's hands still unconsciously clenched into fists when she actually saw it.
