Daring! She cheated in the thriller game
Chapter 211 Entering the Auction
His anger was fake. In fact, Mi Ji was just trying to get information from the bank manager to see if he could tell him more about his family so that he could make use of this identity in the future.
"Master, please calm down! We have no other options. There are too many people coming to get their money. Our storage capacity is almost exhausted!"
But Mi Ji didn't buy it. He sneered and put his gloves back slowly.
"I didn't know that a bank in this small town would not have enough funds to store."
Hearing this, a few drops of cold sweat broke out on the bank manager's forehead.
Mi Ji did not speak, staring at the bank manager with a playful look. Not long after, the bank manager could not stand Mi Ji's gaze and bowed to him: "I am very sorry, I will personally apologize to the Flanders family after this."
"What's the point of asking you to apologize?" Mi Ji sneered and knocked on the table: "If I can't buy what I want, it's useless to just apologize."
Mi Ji's tone was calm, but every word was threatening. The bank manager lowered his head deeply, cold sweat soaking his back.
The Flanders family is one of the seven most famous families in this country. He recognized Mi Ji's badge ring at a glance and knew who he was.
This is the old earl's youngest child. He always pampers his son when he is old, but now he has offended him, and the consequences can be imagined.
But...someone from above gave them an order threatening them, and if the bank manager wanted to agree to Mi Ji's request, he would offend that person again.
It’s really difficult!
While the bank manager wasn't looking up at them, Mi Ji raised his hand, signaling anyone to interrupt him.
"Ahem." Yu Lan understood. She cleared her throat and said in a relaxed tone, "Forget it, Master. This manager must have someone behind the scenes. He can't afford to offend other people. Five million is five million."
Mi Ji glared at Yu Lan unhappily. He was just looking for someone to give him a way out, why did he bring up other things?
Hearing Yu Lan speak, the bank manager raised his head as if he had been pardoned. He was about to say something to thank her, but he heard Yu Lan continue speaking.
"Every wrong has its perpetrator, and we want the money, but we won't make it difficult for you." Yu Lan raised the corner of her mouth, and her smile was the most clear on her blurred face: "Why don't you just tell us who asked you to do this, and it will have nothing to do with you after this."
"This, this..." The bank manager stood there in a daze, and then immediately realized what Yu Lan meant.
Europeans are white people, but at this moment his face was as pale as a dead person, and he was obviously frightened by what Yu Lan said.
"Reluctant?" Yu Lan said softly, but a ray of light gathered in her hand and a faint sound of thunder was heard.
A threat! A naked threat!
The bank manager had no way of saying anything as he felt he had offended his boss no matter what, and he didn't know who to blame.
Before taking action, Yu Lan had already seen clearly that there were no stone sculptures in the VIP room, so she was not afraid of being subdued.
To be honest, she had wanted to try this for a long time. The thought of bullying others by taking advantage of her power made her feel very happy!
"Don't worry." Seeing the bank manager's expression, Yu Lan was in a very good mood, and her voice was filled with laughter: "If you don't tell me and I don't tell you, who would know that it was you who leaked it?"
The bank manager...the bank manager was shamefully moved.
After all, Yu Lan is a magician. In this era, any magician who can survive must be from a prominent family. It is reasonable for her to have some means to learn some unknown information.
Thinking of this, the bank manager was silent for a long time, but finally agreed: "It's one of the seven major families, the Iris family. Their young master wants the item from the auction and doesn't want anyone else to get it, so he asked us not to allow anyone to withdraw more than 5 million G."
The power behind the bank does not belong to any of the seven major families, but the general manager of the bank in Violet Town is connected to the Iris family due to some things. Therefore, the young master issued such an order to isolate others from competing with him financially.
"Haha, you really have a good plan." Mi Ji sneered and no longer blamed Yu Lan.
He even wanted Yu Lan to continue asking so that he could get more information... no, get intelligence.
After all, as the head of an intelligence network, how could he not continue to eat the melon, no, the intelligence, in front of him... no, listen to it.
The bank manager sighed loudly: "Because of this, we have received a lot of complaints from customers in the past few days. I am really helpless."
Although these customers all get money from them, this restrictive behavior has greatly affected their credibility among customers. If customers no longer deposit money in their bank after this, they will suffer a huge loss.
"We got it." Yu Lan looked at Gu Yan beside her excitedly, with the word "making trouble" written all over her eyes.
"Then take 5 million first." Mi Ji cleared his throat and didn't mention his future plans. The bank manager also knew that this was not something he could ask, so he responded respectfully.
He took out a thin card, which looked to be made of the same material as the stone slab on the table.
He placed the card on the slate and did a bunch of operations that Yu Lan couldn't understand. After a while, a light appeared on the card.
"Okay, I've already completed the formalities for you. There are five million GB in this card. Is there anything else you need?"
With the demeanor of a noble young master, Mi Ji did not reach out to take it. He waved his hand to signal Gu Yan to take it. Gu Yan twitched his lips, but still followed the scene and reached out to take the black card.
"No more, bye." Mi Ji replied calmly, but he never expected that the bank manager would call them again.
"Wait, please wait a moment!" The bank manager quickly stood up and walked to Yu Lan: "What is your name?"
Yu Lan glanced at the bank manager, not noticing any ill intentions from him, and then spoke: "Yu."
"Ms. Yu," the bank manager said respectfully, "Actually, I have something I would like to ask you for help with. Would you be willing?"
Hmm? Yu Lan looked at Mi Ji and Gu Yan in surprise. The bank manager also noticed this and quickly turned around to apologize to Mi Ji: "Sorry, Master Mi Ji, I was too excited... This is my personal request and has nothing to do with the bank. Can you ask Miss Yu to help me? The reward is negotiable!"
Mi Ji shook his head: "She is also employed by me, you can discuss anything with her."
This made the bank manager very happy. He had thought that it would be difficult to deal with if Yu Lan was a member of the Flanders family, but he didn't expect that she was a free person. Now he wouldn't have to involve the seven major families.
Thinking of this, the bank manager quickly tore off a piece of paper and wrote an address on it, then handed the paper to Yu Lan: "Ms. Yu, please come to this place at 10 o'clock tonight, I will wait for you here!"
Yu Lan took a quick glance and found that the address written on it seemed to be a hotel. She put the note into her sleeve and replied calmly: "Let me make it clear in advance that I don't take every job. If what you want me to do violates my bottom line, I won't do it."
"Okay! No problem!" the bank manager responded quickly. He also knew that magicians had their own set of principles in doing things. You can't force them to do something they don't want to do. If you make them angry, you will be retaliated against.
The bank manager respectfully escorted them out, and Yu Lan and her companions immediately went to the next location.
They were going to go to the auction exhibition to take a look. If Mi Ji didn't have enough money to buy the things he wanted, he would have to make some big moves next.
Several people went to the auction without stopping. Mi Ji glanced at the invitation letter in his hand and led a few people to the alley behind the auction.
He came to a secret wooden door and knocked on it according to a specific code. Soon a waiter wearing a white mask opened the door.
The waiter took the invitation, looked at it, bowed slightly, and then welcomed the few people in.
The only sound in the club was their footsteps. The waiter led Yu Lan and the others silently to a dim underground passage.
Mi Ji, who was walking behind the waiter, frowned. Even a player of his level could not see clearly in such dark conditions. Without light, their situation in this passage would be very dangerous, and they would not be able to respond in time if any accident occurred.
But the waiter in front had no intention of lighting the lamp, but walked straight down. Mi Ji hesitated for a moment, then followed him in.
When he stepped into the passage, he focused all his attention and was always on guard against the situation around him to avoid being suddenly attacked.
Suddenly, a beam of light appeared behind him. The beam of light flew forward quickly, stopped at the front of the team, and floated slowly along with the team's walking speed.
Mi Ji looked up and found that it was a blue fireball.
He turned around and thought it was Yu Lan who released it, but he saw Alvin, who was wearing a black robe at the end of the team, put down his hand, and a little light disappeared from his sleeve.
It looks like it was the fireball he released.
The light of the fireball was not strong, but it was just enough for Mi Ji and his companions to see the road clearly. Mi Ji nodded slightly to express his gratitude to Erwin, and Erwin also nodded slightly in response.
The waiter made no comment on the sudden appearance of the fireball and continued on his way in silence.
Walking in front of Erwin was Yu Lan. Although she didn't say it, Erwin could feel the stiffness of Yu Lan's body.
It seems that this little light is still not enough. Erwin sighed helplessly, leaned over slightly and whispered in Yu Lan's ear: "Miss Yu, did you bring the fluorite?"
Sensing Erwin's approach, Yu Lan's body stiffened, but she hid it well. She nodded slightly: "I brought it."
As she spoke, she took out the fluorite from the player's backpack. The slightly white fluorescence that only she could see illuminated the surrounding environment, which made Yu Lan relax.
In fact, her eyesight is not very good. Compared with other people, her perception of light is weaker, so even if there is light in front, she still feels that it is dark around her. Just now, she was distracted and for a moment she forgot that she brought fluorite. Fortunately, Erwin reminded her, otherwise she would have to endure this journey.
Unlike Yu Lan, Erwin had good eyesight and could see things clearly even in the dark. He felt relieved when he saw Yu Lan take out an ordinary stone, and adjusted his pace to keep a polite distance between him and Yu Lan.
Just now he noticed that Yu Lan was a little nervous when he approached her, so it would be better to keep some distance.
This underground passage was neither long nor short. The waiter led them around and around for a long time before they finally got out of it.
The waiter pushed open the wooden door in front of him, revealing the scene behind the door. After everyone had left the door, he quietly closed the door and left.
Behind the door, several people in gray robes noticed someone coming and stopped talking. They looked at Mi Ji and the others, then turned around and discussed the goods in front of them in a low voice.
"This..." Yu Lan looked at the auction hall in front of her, speechless.
Unlike the club she imagined, in front of her was a hall with no end in sight. A few candles were lit loosely on the wall, which was not enough to illuminate the room. There were all kinds of goods on display, some of which were even placed on the ground very casually, with only the minimum starting price listed on the goods for reference.
The entire hall was built with stone brick walls. Yu Lan sensed a different aura on the walls and felt that they were probably for protection.
"There are many magic circles set up here. Be careful. Some of them are used to target magic." Alvin reminded in a low voice. The auction should be prevented from being disrupted by magic, so these magic circles were specially set up.
In addition to this, these magic circles have other functions. Thinking of those functions, Alvin's face couldn't help but darken.
Yu Lan didn't notice that Erwin's mood had changed. She nodded indifferently and didn't take it to heart.
What does targeting magicians have to do with her Heavenly Master? Although she felt a little resistance, it was not completely useless and was acceptable.
At this moment, her attention was not on this. She followed Mi Ji into the hall, and the more she looked, the heavier her mood became.
The merchandise displayed at the entrance was all okay, mostly some beautifully crafted handicrafts, followed by materials like herbs and stones, and then some strangely shaped tools.
As they went deeper, there were fewer and fewer gray-robed people around them, but the aura around them made Yu Lan feel more and more uneasy.
They all seemed to have some abilities. This ability meant that they could use spiritual power or spells like her. It went without saying that these were genuine magicians.
The shelves around them turned into metal cages or glass containers, and Yu Lan and the others frowned uncomfortably.
Inside the cages are human beings.
