That night, Feng Wu dressed up in disguise, wearing a disguise mask and a loose robe that obscured his figure, and went to the auction venue in City C.
It was still the same auction as before. Perhaps it was because the special medicine was sold at a high price last time, which made the people at the venue taste the sweetness. This time, Feng Wu handed over the three disguised special medicines to them very smoothly.
The people at the venue even took the initiative to take charge of the publicity and guaranteed that the results of the publicity would satisfy them.
After signing the contract, Feng Wu pretended to leave, but turned the corner and took another route back to the auction house and sneaked in.
The auction house staff held an emergency meeting and worked overnight to develop a plan to promote the "miracle drug".
Their attitudes made Feng Wu certain that the auction venue and the people behind the scenes were not in the same group. At most, they had cooperated in the last auction of the "special medicine".
Feng Wu, hiding in the dark, held his breath and concentrated, waiting until the auction house staff meeting was over and everyone left before he was ready to leave.
At this moment, Feng Wu noticed that one of the employees was behaving in a way that was a little strange.
He walked hurriedly, and although his expression, like everyone else, hid the joy of "about to make something big", there was a hint of deep thought in his eyes.
Feng Wu turned around and followed him quietly without attracting anyone's attention.
The young employee returned to his room and looked around vigilantly before closing the door. After making sure that no one was following him, he closed and locked the door.
Little did he know that in the two seconds he was watching, a tiny disposable virtual eavesdropping device, no bigger than an ant, was stuck to his collar by a wisp of mental power as thin as the wind.
Feng Wu hid in the dark and turned on the miniature headset hidden in his ear. The young employee's voice came through the headset.
"…three special medicines."
"Yes, it is expected to be put up for auction in three days."
"Please be sure to tell His Highness about this..."
After the call, the young employee paced back and forth in the room, his face full of excitement and joy.
This news is undoubtedly very important. If it can really attract His Highness's attention and even help him a lot, then he won't have to worry about his future life!
However, he did not notice that a small object stuck on his collar broke into pieces, turning into inconspicuous little points of light, which quickly blended into the light in the room.
Feng Wu left the auction house under the cover of night, with a hint of solemnity in his dark golden eyes.
——Your Highness?
"Your Highness?" Hearing the news from Feng Wu, Si Youlin could not hide his shock, "Not many people dare to use this title."
Xiong Yingjun was shocked and said, "In the empire, the only people who can be called His Highness are the Great Highness, the Second Highness, the Third Highness, and the Little Highness. Now the scope has been greatly narrowed down!"
Hearing the familiar name, the little kid lying on the head of the bed suddenly stiffened, then quickly recovered without being noticed by others.
Third Prince...
If he was not mistaken, the Third Prince might possibly be... him.
The little cub looked up guiltily, and glanced at Feng Wu cautiously with his small eyes, then quickly lowered his head again, pretending not to care, playing with his little tentacles, eavesdropping secretly, no, listening to their conversation openly.
Si Youlin said, "The young prince is too young to be involved in such things. The third prince..." He suddenly frowned, "I haven't heard from the third prince for a long time."
Lin An An thought to herself, how could there be any news about the Third Prince? The Third Prince was tricked into going to the Sin Star and turned into a cute little monster with a brain!
Xiong Yingjun also said, "When the Third Prince came of age, His Majesty didn't even hold a coming-of-age party for him. I heard that the Third Prince is no longer alive—Ouch! Anzi, why did you hit me with a tomato?"
Xiong Yingjun caught the tomato that the little cub threw accurately at his face, and saw the little cub slapping his tentacles as if he was having a tantrum.
Lin Anan spit in her heart.
Don't talk nonsense, he is not dead yet!
Feng Wu picked up the kid, took out a candy from somewhere, and stuffed it into the kid's mouth.
It was cool and had a minty taste. The little boy immediately spread out his mouth comfortably like a little cookie, quietly sucking on the candy.
Feng Wu said: "It could also be someone from the Federation or the space pirates."
Si Youlin nodded. There were still too few clues at the moment. He could only wait until the day of the special medicine auction to see the situation.
In the next few days, the news that Alpha special medicine would be auctioned in City C once again swept the entire Sin Star.
The person behind the scenes blocked the information about the last special medicine, which actually helped Feng Wu and others a lot.
The fewer people know the true situation of the last miracle drug, the more people are willing to come to the auction for this miracle drug.
The more people attend the auction, the more authenticity is revealed, and the easier it is to fish out the real person behind the scenes.
Three days is enough time for people from other Sin Star Cities to reach City C.
On the day of the auction, Feng Wu disguised himself as a participant in the auction, and he and Xiong Yingjun sat in different seats in the venue.
Lin Anan huddled in the pocket of Feng Wu's wide robe, acting like a happy kid who didn't have to do anything.
The auction started as usual. Because the highlight was at the end, when the items in the front were being auctioned, Lin Anan secretly played the small game on the terminal in his pocket.
Until he suddenly heard the word 'herbs'.
While he was distracted, the word 'game over' appeared on the small light screen. The kid pursed his lips and simply listened attentively to what was happening outside.
The host was introducing the current item for auction. It was said to be a plant that looked like a herb found in the wilderness of Sin Star. Although its efficacy was unknown, it had strong vitality and showed no signs of withering even after being brought back to the auction for a week.
The little kid couldn't help but complain in his heart, a week can be considered as a strong vitality...
But some of the wealthy people who attended the auction were quite fond of this trick, and soon the price rose from a starting price of one thousand to several thousand.
Lin Anan was a little curious, so she used her little tentacles to gently poke Feng Wu's... uh, this place should be the waist.
Feng Wu quietly pulled the light screen down a little so that the little guy could see clearly the details of the auction items projected on the light screen.
After seeing the appearance of the plant clearly, the little cub’s eyes widened immediately, and his little tentacles poked Feng Wu’s waist even harder.
Feng Wu understood what he meant and joined the bidding. In the end, the herb was bought by Feng Wu for nearly five thousand star coins.
——Five thousand star coins.
Lin Anan's heart twitched and she almost burst into tears in her pocket. It was really too damn expensive!
The auction continued and soon it was time for the final item.
The way the special medicine is sold this time is the same as last time, three pills are sold together and won by the three buyers with the highest bids.
The atmosphere at the auction venue was instantly ignited. With the example of the special-effect medicine last time, the venue boldly set the starting price at 200 million this time.
As soon as this price was announced, the buyers above immediately calmed down.
But there were still many people who participated in the auction, and the price of the special medicine soared from 200 million to 500 million, 800 million...
It was eventually auctioned off at prices of 1 billion, 900 million and 850 million.
The little kid hiding in the pocket was dumbfounded. The price this time was more than three times higher than before. He thought that the last 300 million per piece was the ceiling price.
Lin Anan's eyes were blank and she subconsciously glanced at her savings account.
Compared with these people, he is still a little pauper qaq.
After the auction was over, Feng Wu went to the backstage of the venue in an undisguised form and received three signed agreements from the staff.
The staff respectfully escorted the person out of the venue and kept chatting with Feng Wu along the way, congratulating him on the successful auction and hoping that he would cooperate again next time.
Lin Anan blinked and found that Feng Wu and the staff member had a strange accent, and their walking frequency and pace were also different from usual.
It was not until he was far away from the venue that Feng Wu resumed his normal walking pattern.
The little guy poked his head out of his robe pocket: [Is there something wrong with that staff member? ]
"Yes." Feng Wu nodded, "He is the man of that 'highness'."
Not long after the man and his cub returned home, Xiong Yingjun also arrived home and began to report on the operation.
"Except for the first buyer, the other two people who bid for the special medicine were arranged by us." Xiong Yingjun said, "When signing, our people had successfully attached the micro-mech to the terminal of that person without being discovered."
Feng Wu nodded: "Very good."
"For other people who participated in the auction and bid higher, we have also deployed micro-mechas, just in case." Xiong Yingjun said.
Only then did Lin Anan realize that the reason the price of the medicine was so high this time was because their people had inflated the price.
Although it is a bit risky, doing so can indeed narrow the scope more accurately. The person who did not give up until the end and was willing to pay an outrageously high price to buy this special medicine is most likely related to the person behind the scenes.
Moreover... with this move, not only did they get back the money they had previously invested in the 'special medicine', but Shang Youyuan and Uhura's money was also earned back.
Feng Wu said: "Transfer 300 million to Mr. Shang."
Xiong Yingjun nodded and asked, "What about Wuhura? Are we going to look for him again?"
Feng Wu glanced at him and said calmly, "Star Pirates are not short of money."
It means they stayed on their own.
Xiong Yingjun smiled happily, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "I wanted to ask before, what is our special medicine made of? I saw that you made it in just a few minutes, how come it's so fast!"
Feng Wu looked down at Lin Anan. The medicine was not made by him, so he didn't know about it.
The little boy flicked it in his palm: [It’s a mud ball coated with sugar! ]
