Lena gritted her teeth tightly and remained silent, just staring at the old man on the auction stage, or at the rose-red crystal in his hand.

In her state, Wei Xuxu didn't know what to do, so she could only comfort her softly: "Calm down, calm down, the auction will end soon..."

While comforting Lena softly, Wei Xuxu stroked her back.

Wei Xuxu's ability to comfort people is also destructive, but maybe because of the physical contact with her, Leina still relaxed a little bit, and then suddenly said:

"Miss Wei."

Wei Xuxu responded immediately: "I am here, you say."

"You Japan, when the criminal police handle the case, how will the injury to the suspect be judged?"

".......Uh?"

Wei Xuxu, who originally thought that Leina was going to say something important, was immediately choked by this unexpected question.

As for this question... In fact, the police in various countries are not too different. If it is based on the public official words, then even if it is a criminal suspect, the police cannot injure him unnecessarily.

Otherwise, once people from all walks of life learn that the police lynched criminal suspects while handling the case, the policeman will be taken to jail immediately, and the sentence is not light.

But in the final analysis, this is just an official statement. In the actual case handling process, you can only understand what you understand.

Especially Wei Xuxu's current police rank and status. To put it bluntly, she is a dog with authority. As long as no one is killed in the case...or even if someone is killed, the superiors will firmly protect her .

But now that Lei Na asked this, Wei Xuxu was a little embarrassed.

Lena would definitely not like to hear lies.

Wei Xuxu knew very well that she would ask this question, obviously planning to do something.

But to be honest, I always feel that my identity as a 'policeman' will be dirty...  

After hesitating for a long time, until Leina turned her head around, Wei Xuxu sighed helplessly.

"As long as you don't beat yourself to death, just keep your breath. I'll take care of you in the future." After Wei Xuxu finished speaking self-destructively, she added: "By the way, it's best to ask for the information first, otherwise today's work will be in vain." gone."

Lena looked at Wei Xuxu quietly, her green eyes were not covered by this dim place, and Wei Xuxu looked numb as if she could talk.

After a while, before Wei Xuxu couldn't help but look away, Leina turned her head again and continued to look at the old man on the auction stage who was writing about the Immortal Stone.

When Wei Xuxu breathed a sigh of relief, he heard a faint voice.

"Thank you."

Wei Xuxu froze for a moment, then grinned uncontrollably, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth, and stroked Lena's blond head with one hand.

"You're welcome!"

Leina didn't speak, but she didn't push away Wei Xuxu's mischievous hand with aristocratic arrogance as usual.

The auction is still going on.

The old man's boastful talk has come to an end, and now the atmosphere of all the guests in the audience has been drawn to the highest point, everyone is like a hungry wolf, staring at the fairy stone in the old man's hand, as if it is a piece of Delicious fresh meat.

No one is aware of the function of the rose-red crystal in the old man's hand. Even a three-year-old child would know that the crystal can turn him into a 'Superman', thus giving birth to a desire for it.

I have to say that, as expected of an old-fashioned auction, the old man's language skills are indeed quite sophisticated.

But what is more important is the magical effect of the Immortal Essence Stone.

The current atmosphere of the auction is like a wooden barrel filled with black powder, and it will be detonated immediately if there is only a spark.

Knowing that the atmosphere has been set in place, the old man no longer delays, and officially announces:

"The last item to be auctioned tonight, the Immortal Essence Stone, has a starting price of 1 million yen, and each price increase must not be less than 500 million yen."

"Now, the filming officially begins!"

The moment the old man's voice fell, the whole audience erupted!

"I'll raise the price by 1000 million yen!"

"I'll add 3000 million!"

"1 million, I'll add 1 million! No one wants to grab me!!"

All the guests in the entire auction were ignited at this moment. They shouted and roared, and the decency that belonged to the master was completely torn apart. Everyone was like a greedy beast, and only the beautiful rose red was in their eyes. crystallization.

Everyone was trying their best to buy the Immortal Essence Stone. Many people who were short of cash called up the phone on the spot, yelled loudly at the other end of the phone, and ordered people to pay a large amount of money immediately. .

Wei Xuxu and Leina sat on the chair together, like a reef in a storm, watching the scene in front of them silently.

On the auction stage, the old man who was full of ambition, as if he had controlled the fate of all the guests, was also silent, but laughed wantonly. In his eyes, the guests were not beasts, but large sums of gold.

However, everyone does not know that this scene of demons dancing wildly indicates that the auction is about to end, and it also indicates that the hunters waiting to pull the trigger are about to pull the trigger.

Chapter 430 IX The Pride of Nobles

The frenzied bidding for the Fairy Stone will eventually come to an end.

In just 15 minutes, Wei Xuxu watched the entire carnival that was jaw-dropping.

These people, who are either rich or expensive, keep bidding and shouting prices almost like crazy. The old man said that the rule of "each price increase must not be less than 500 million yen" is even included in the price they shouted. It doesn't count.

Except for maintaining a little rationality in the first few minutes, after the end, none of these people's bids were less than 1000 million!

You know, the starting price is 1 million yen! !Converted into soft sister coins, there are nearly 500 million!

Wei Xuxu originally thought that the starting price was high enough, no matter how rich he was, he had to weigh it up when raising the price.

It turned out that she had greatly underestimated these people's financial resources, and their desire for the fairy stone.

Within 15 minutes, the auction price of the Immortal Stone rose from a reserve price of 1 million yen to 13 billion yen.

13 billion yen! !

Even if the yen is worthless, it is 6400 million when converted into soft sister coins! !

What's more, it's only 'cash'! !

Since the bidding was too fierce and many guests did not have enough cash flow, the old man said very "generously" that he could accept the price in exchange for something.

As soon as this additional condition came out, those guests who had more fixed assets but less cash also waved all kinds of objects to join this 'fight'.

Houses, land, shares, these are just pediatrics.

Even the government's bidding qualifications, third-party borrowing claims, factory signing contracts, and other things, they all offered them to offset the price!

However, these people still have the bottom line, they will not sell their wives and children at home, and most of the things that can be offered as a bargain will not shake their foundation, but it will definitely hurt their muscles and bones.

Even so, the money, resources, and power included in the 15-minute bidding time are enough to shock ordinary people.

It's not that Wei Xuxu hasn't watched the videos of those auctions on the Internet, and he also watched a lot of various jewelry and antiques, and the antiques that cost hundreds of millions of yuan are also included.

But after all, it was watched on the Internet, after all, it was separated by a screen, so it didn't seem so real.

When she actually entered the auction site, sat with these people, and listened to their shouting prices, Wei Xuxu suddenly realized that the distance between this and the lives of ordinary people can be described as Like a chasm.

Even though he is a human being with his current status, Wei Xuxu is just an ordinary citizen in his heart, and he has never thought so much about it.

Today is an increase in knowledge.

What Lena said is still correct. Different occasions require different thinking and mentality. Such occasions are obviously places that Wei Xuxu cannot adapt to.

Compared with Wei Xuxu, who is amazed by the high bidding price from time to time, Lena sat in her original position without changing her expression the whole time, with only the rose-red fairy stone in her eyes, like those around her ears. None of the frenzied outcry had anything to do with her.

There is nothing wrong with it.

With Leina's identity and knowledge, the number of rare and rare objects she has seen is probably several times more than the sum of all the people present.

As for money... Wei Xuxu wouldn't believe that the Campbell family didn't have assets worth two to three hundred million euros.

Although the money flowing in today's auction is still as high as hundreds of millions of soft sister coins, it is still an insignificant amount compared to the Campbell family.

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, not to mention that the Campbell family is not a docile camel, and they haven't reached the point of being 'skinny' yet. In these small occasions, they can still dominate the audience.

The bidding for the fairy stone didn't last too long and ended soon.

It stands to reason that the auction time for this kind of treasure would take an hour or so, but because the guests were so enthusiastic that they didn't hold back when asking the price, they simply called out their psychological reserve price, so This indirectly led to the short auction of the fairy stone.

After all, everyone shouted the reserve price, and when it was over, there would be nothing left. I could only watch other more powerful guests screaming and shouting the price reluctantly, with resentful eyes, as if my wife was about to be snatched away by others. .

In the end, the last price of the fairy stone ushered in the highest peak tonight.

15 billion yen, plus a lot of miscellaneous counterfeit items, the total value is about 20 billion yen or more, and if converted into soft sister coins, it is more than 1 million.

Such a sum of money may be just a small goal in the mouth of a certain zbj, but in the eyes of Wei Xuxu, who has the mentality of an ordinary citizen, it is a sum of money that he will never earn in his entire life.

Seeing the successful bidder standing up excitedly, waving his hands with a blushing neck, and laughing loudly, Wei Xuxu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the gap between people is sometimes really bigger than that between people and dogs more exaggerated.

In the auction hall at this time, apart from the undisguised laugh of the successful bidder, the only one with a smile on his face was the old man.

The reasons why these two people laugh are very understandable, one is to get the coveted 'panacea', and the other is to make a lot of money.

But except for the two of them, all the rest of the guests had darkened faces, looking at the bidder with displeasure, with the intention of murdering and seizing the treasure.

...Maybe it's not just the intention, many people have already made such a plan.

Wei Xuxu looked away from the surrounding guests, reached out to touch the pistol hanging on his waist, and planned his next move.

The hidden malice in the eyes of some guests made Wei Xuxu feel that there would be chaos in the future, and that fairy stone must not fall into the hands of others. She had to recycle it and hand it over to Lei Na asked her to discern the mystery.

The premise of achieving all this is that she cannot be discovered by these people.

These people are the upper class in Japan, and they hold a lot of power in their hands. As a policeman, once the matter of 'robbing' a group of upper class is revealed, the consequences can be imagined.

Not being able to reveal one's identity is a prerequisite, and on top of that, one must consider how to obtain the Immortal Spirit Stone.

And there is another difficulty here, how to deal with the old man.

Being able to make this kind of private auction flourish, it can be seen that this old man is not a simple character, and he has a serious heart.

He must have considered the chaos that would occur after the auction ended, and he was probably already prepared, and he would hide to avoid the limelight as soon as the auction ended.

So if he wasn't caught before he hid, he might have disappeared without a trace.

But catching the old man first is not good. After all, the stone of fairy spirit can be taken directly. Who knows if the winner will swallow the stone of fairy spirit after finding out that he is surrounded.

what can we do about it.

While Wei Xuxu was still thinking, Lena, who had been silent all this time, spoke:

"Miss Wei."

"Huh...huh? I'm here, you say."

"Do you have a plan for the next action plan?"

"Not yet." Wei Xuxu admitted honestly: "I'm still hesitating to catch that side first, whether it's the fairy stone or the information on the old man is very important..."

"You're right. Whether it's the crystallization or the intelligence, they are of great importance to us and are enough to affect all our next actions. Of course, the priority of intelligence will be higher in comparison. Some With the information, I might be able to get countless crystals, but crystals are still very important to us. With that crystal, I can identify with certainty what the traitor did during this period. I'm sure I can track him down, and then--"

"Okay! Stop!"

Seeing that Lena was about to start making up a long story again, Wei Xuxu immediately stopped.

"I understand what you mean. Since you said that, you should have some ideas, right?"

Reina nodded: "My suggestion is that we split into two groups."

Wei Xuxu frowned and said, "Split the troops into two groups? That's fine, but..."

This is indeed the best solution at the moment, but Wei Xuxu really can't rest assured that Leina can act alone.

The strength of B-level psykers is indeed very strong. If the rare A-level psykers are not counted, B-level already belongs to the high-end combat power in the psychic world. In addition, Lena must have carried it with her during this trip. There are quite a few high-level psychic props, even if it is an A-level psychic user, it probably won't be able to take down Leina in a short time.

But not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, the old man is not an idiot, and this is his old lair, and the defense layout in it can be guessed that it is definitely a dragon's pond and a tiger's lair.

No matter what Lena said, she was only a B-rank psyker, and it was still too dangerous to contact that old man alone.

To be honest, to Wei Xuxu, or to the entire Special Affairs Department, or even the entire Metropolitan Police Department, the task of catching traitors that Reina asked for assistance is actually not very important.

For the Metropolitan Police Department, this is a friendly and cooperative arrest mission.

The key word is 'friendship and cooperation', not 'capture mission'.

Guaranteeing Reina's personal safety is the focus of this mission. If such a noble heir with an ancient background has an accident in Japan, the entire Metropolitan Police Department will be overwhelmed!

When handing over this task to Wei Xuxu, Naoki Matsubara had already mentioned it to Wei Xuxu.

When necessary, Wei Xuxu can even give up the goal of this mission and ensure Leina's safety first.

Compared with the safety of this noble lady, the traitor of the Campbell family is not even as important as a single hair of her.

The Metropolitan Police Department's attitude towards this task is relatively bad, and Wei Xuxu is really worried about letting Lena face the old man alone, so when she heard Leina say this, Wei Xuxu immediately What I want is to refuse.
