Blue Star's auction was a mixed bag. For the sake of safety, Qi Chao specially prepared a cloak for Moss. After getting off the aircraft, Moss put on the cap, revealing only the bandage-wrapped chin.

"Mo Zai'er, you must follow me obediently and don't talk to strangers, do you hear me?" Qi Chao babbled as he walked towards the auction.

Moss didn't make a sound, but the hood shook up and down a few times, obviously nodding.

It was just a quarter past eight at this time, and the auction had already started. There were nearly 15 lots, and No. [-] had already been photographed. Fortunately, Qi Chao came by coincidence, and the few diamonds he liked were all ranked around [-]. .

Qi Chao specially set the corner position in the front row. He found a seat, and handed Moss a few pictures of the lots he was looking forward to, and asked him to take a look in advance.

Not many people participated in the auction, and only half of the nearly 500 seats were filled. Although there were few people, everyone was either rich or expensive.

The host on the auction stage was full of witty remarks, without repeating a word, and made a harmless little joke from time to time to mediate the atmosphere and coax the bidders below to laugh.

"This one looks the best."

Moss handed Qi Chao his favorite picture of a pigeon-egg-sized diamond, and his tone was very serious: "This diamond is so bright, my father will definitely like it."

The lot that Moss refers to is the largest and brightest among all the diamonds, and it must be worth a lot. You must know that in Blue Star, the highest quality diamonds can cost tens of millions.

"Then shoot this."

Qi Chao said in a low voice, with a smile in his eyes, as if he didn't realize that with only a million star coins, he might not be able to afford this big diamond at all.

It feels good to have advice heard.

Even Moss is no exception.

He doesn't like auctions, but this time he can bear it for now, Moss thought, tugging at the bow on his wrist.

On the stage, the host was introducing the No. 20 lot. Qi Chao looked up, then lowered his head again, and tapped the screen with his bony fingers.

With his current savings, it may be difficult to bid for the best diamond, but it is not impossible. The identity of the original richest man's son is still very useful. At least the person who organized this auction is willing to give His face.

Auctions like Blue Star seem to be transparent, but in fact there are many ways to go underneath. The original body has participated in no less than ten auctions, and Qi Chao, who has his memory, naturally knows the rules of the auction well.

This is also one of the reasons why Qi Chao came to the auction instead of choosing a relatively cheap diamond company.

After all, he is a man who has been struggling in the society for nearly 30 years. If there is a shortcut that can be taken, Qi Chao will only choose the option that is beneficial to him without violating his own principles.

The diamonds that Moss and Qi Chao were looking for were No. 20. The host read out the number on the stage, and after a brief introduction, someone raised a placard to bid immediately, and the bidders raised the price one by one.

After Qi Chao quoted 70 yuan, the original bidders didn't even raise their cards again. The host made a final decision, and the valuable diamond was finally sold at a price of 70 yuan, which went into Qi Chao's pocket.

It's unscientific that things went well. Qi Chao didn't know how much the owner of the auction paid to buy off those bidders. However, since the boss is willing to help him, it means that in the eyes of the boss, getting a relationship with the richest man is far more important than Petty profits attracted him even more.

Qi Chao wrote down this favor, typed a few words of thanks on the chat interface, and stopped after skillfully exchanging business with the auction owner.

It is almost 09:30 now, and Moss goes to bed at ten o'clock. Qi Chao remembers the time and whispers to Moss: "We will leave when the auction attendant brings the diamonds."

"it is good."

Moss was fine.

Qi Chao bought a gift for the doctor, as if he had completed some task, he felt much relieved, he raised his eyes to look at the host, as if he was watching the excitement.

At the beginning, he only focused on picking diamonds, Qi Chao didn't know what the rest of the lots were. He leaned on his head, his dark brown eyes were full of smiles, but when he saw the next lot on the stage, Qi Chao's eyes were full of excitement. The smile was instantly withdrawn.

"Next is Lot No. 25—S-Class Doll Double Mirror!" The host knew that many people came here for this lot. Not surprisingly, the transaction volume of No. 25 must be the highest one today.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart, and spared no effort to introduce: "I don't need to say more, everyone must know how scarce it is. I have only met three in the ten years of hosting! And this double mirror is the most fascinating. Unforgettable one!"

The host's tone was impassioned, but few of the bidders below listened carefully, and looked at the puppets on the stage with strange, disgusted or eager eyes.

The twin mirrors are also known as "Twins", just like the name, these are two dolls, one with white hair and white eyes, the other with black hair and black eyes, they look like thirteen or fourteen-year-old boys, exquisite and beautiful, but the bidders The reason for the different eyes is not how delicate the two dolls look, but their weird bodies.

The two dolls are leaning back to back, not in a deliberate pose, but because their spines are glued together.

"Double Mirror" is a deformed doll.

"The puppet maker who made the double mirror is the master teacher Qing Yu, the champion of the last puppet competition! It is difficult to put two doll hearts in the same body!" the host said passionately : "This is art!"

The art of shit.

If that Qingyu was here, Qi Chao would definitely go up and give him two punches first, what the hell is that fucking shell? !Call deformity art?This TM is an insult to art!grass!

Qi Chao was about to go mad with rage, he uttered a few swear words, why did he make such a puppet?Everyone knows that the deformity of connecting the upper body means the sharing of organs, and it also means experiencing unbearable pain.

If the twins of human beings are physically connected and deformed, it will be the beginning of suffering and suffering from the time of birth, and every breath is a severe pain.

Dolls are not as sensitive as human pain nerves, but they can also feel pain, which was mentioned by Lang Luo when they met for the first time.

It is conceivable that these two children have suffered from pain since birth.

The wise men develop technology, explore medicine, and do everything possible to avoid the birth of deformed children, but that shitty humanoid artist actually makes such a shell for the dolls.

This is for art?

Art is wronged and cried, okay?

Qi Chaohen's teeth itch.

Compared with Qi Chao's gritted teeth reaction, the eyes of Moss under the cloak did not change at all, it seems to have been commonplace for a long time, not all puppet masters are as gentle as his father, and it is not uncommon for puppet masters to use dolls as a tool for sensationalism.

Moss turned his head slightly and looked at Qi Chao who was beside him. He didn't understand why this person was angry.

There is not much time left for each lot, and after the host's introduction, he hammered the hammer and started quoting.

The "double mirrors" are deformed, and no matter how exquisite their appearance is, they can't make people ignore their weirdness. However, there are quite a few people participating in the bidding. They stared at the dolls on the stage with fanatic eyes, and the bids even exceeded tens of millions. .

Qi Chao has never been willing to think of people in a bad way, but watching this scene, he had to think deeply, what are these people trying to do with the double mirror.

When human beings become vicious, they are even worse than animals. This sentence has been confirmed by the original body.

It would be better if the double mirror was taken home by kind people, but if it was taken away by someone as disgusting as the original body, it would be tantamount to entering hell.

Qi Chao decided to take the mirrors home.

Even if he had the cheek to ask Yuan Bing's father for a loan, he couldn't just watch these two little puppets step into the abyss.

Moss suddenly heard Qi Chao's quotation from the side, and his black eyes were a little surprised. He looked over inquiringly, and only saw Qi Chao's tense jaw.

Soon there were bids again, and Qi Chao held up his cards, and each time he was [-] star coins higher than them. Can take the double mirror back.

However, before Qi Chao could really take a picture of the doll, the optical brain suddenly vibrated.

Auction owner: [Young Master Qi, don't go down the auction. If you can't get the double mirror, the association has already reserved it. No matter how much you say, we won't give it to you. 】

Qi Chao was very familiar with this news.

That's how he played when he bought diamonds just now.

I have to say, it's kind of disgusting.

Qi Chao twitched the corners of his mouth, not knowing who he was laughing at.

Qi Chao: 【Is it okay if I bid higher than them? 】

Auction owner: 【No, it's not about money. The association can get rid of us. Your father's company also cooperates with them. You should know what they do. 】

The Puppet Artists Association has always been domineering, and sometimes they don't even give Yuanchen's father face. If they offend them, it may implicate Yuanchen's father, and he cannot implicate Yuanzhen's father.

Qi Chao flicked his thumb across the screen of the optical brain, and typed the word um. If it is an association, it should not hurt the double mirror.

But, really not?

If it was in the past, Qi Chao might not think so. This is because of his trust in his peers as a puppeteer, but seeing the little puppet on the stage, Qi Chao is not sure.

Do puppet artists really not hurt dolls?

On the auction stage, the sound of the hammer sounded, and amidst the excited voice of the host, the pair of mirrors were taken down by the staff, Qi Chao drooped his eyelashes, and the obscurity in his eyes did not dissipate for a long time.

After the auction, they returned to the villa.

Along the way, Qi Chao didn't say a few words, and Moss looked at Qi Chao strangely from time to time, as if he didn't understand the reason for his depression.

In the living room, the doctor sat on the sofa and seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

Moss froze, and called out to his father, and stood there, not knowing what to say. Qi Chao patted Moss on the shoulder and told him to go back to his room to sleep. Moss glanced at his father and said, After noticing that his father also nodded slightly, he immediately ran up.

Qi Chao wanted to smile, but because of the wrong mood, this smile looked a bit ugly. Shen Yuxi saw that something was wrong with him, frowned slightly, and asked worriedly: "Did something happen?"

"It's okay." Qi Chao forced a smile, not really wanting to talk, "Let's talk about it tomorrow, I'm a little tired."

According to Qi Chao's understanding of Shen Yuxi, he should nod gently and not continue to ask, but this time he was wrong.

"Then can you tell me why you took Moss out in the middle of the night?"

Shen Yuxi's tone was still unhurried, and her tone was as gentle as a piano piece with a soft melody, but Qi Chao froze for some reason when he heard this sentence, as if he was being strangled by the throat of fate.

Qi Chao turned around, as if changing the subject, but also as if asking a sincere question: "Then brother Shen, can you tell me why you put the doll in the auction in the first place?"

Before, Qi Chao never thought about this question, but today, he went to the auction for the first time and saw that deformed doll standing alone on the stage, Qi Chao suddenly thought of this question in his heart.

The auction means that the owner of the little doll is uncertain, so the doctor is so assured that the little doll will not be taken home by bad guys?In other words, like Shuang Jing's father, he doesn't care about the future of the little puppet he made.

The doctor paused, as if surprised, and didn't answer right away.

Qi Chao looked at him quietly without urging him.

The two people in the living room were one meter apart, standing opposite each other, and the atmosphere was a little frozen.

Another daily return visit bumped into this kind of system:  …

No, host, why are you asking this?

The system is about to cry in fright, why can the villain do this?Of course, it is to facilitate the selection of you unlucky bastards, so that we can plan!
