Chapter 35 Turning around suddenly, that person was there...
Upon hearing the auction start notification, Hanajikazuki, without waiting for instructions from the big shots, immediately pressed the "Participate in Auction" button and entered a price of 25,000 points.
This situation indicates that he is determined to win, thus warning others not to compete with him, otherwise even if they eventually succeed, they will pay a heavy price.
His actions immediately enraged customer number 26, who couldn't help but curse:
"What the hell? This is the item I've got my eye on. The seller just needs an appraiser here to get a price estimate, that's why I'm here."
First come, first served. Don't you know the rules?
Worried that Hanako Ichiki's voice might be recognized, Matt retorted, "Since we're in an auction house, all items will naturally go to the highest bidder."
"You neither paid for it nor signed an agreement beforehand, so why do you consider this item your property and forbid others from buying it?"
His tone was gentle, but every word he uttered was a slap in the face to the other person, who was immediately speechless.
He immediately used voice commands on the bidding screen: "I bid 30,000 points!"
Then he shouted in Xiaobai's direction, "You ignorant fools, today I'll show you what it means to be rich!"
Before even getting a chance to finish off the flower-covered tree, Matt immediately used voice commands: "35,000 points."
He seemed to have angered them, and shouted, "I'll bet 40,000 points!"
Then he turned to them and yelled, "If you dare to raise prices again, I'll kill you all the moment you step out this door!"
Suddenly, Matt raised her hand and addressed the appraiser and host on stage: "I protest! Guest number 26 verbally insulted and threatened us!"
"Protest valid! Guest number 26, please abide by the auction rules. You must not insult, verbally abuse, or assault other guests. Otherwise, your bidding qualification will be revoked." The appraiser had no choice but to speak.
Customers are willing to come to them because firstly, the transactions are safe and secure, and secondly, their appraisal results are authentic and reliable.
So even though she didn't want to offend guest number 26, the other party was so arrogant and completely disregarded the rules of the auction. If she didn't do anything about it, word would get out and her small auction would be impossible to continue.
Hearing the appraiser's threat, guest number 26 was furious, but dared not verbally attack Xiaobai and his group anymore, and instead attacked them with his eyes.
His small, single-eyelid eyes were wide open, making him look quite comical.
Just then, Hua Jingyishu suddenly began to tremble all over and gasped for breath.
"What's wrong? You don't have enough money in your account? Don't worry, we can use items as collateral here, right? Did you forget we still have the energy stones we got from the warehouse on the fifth basement level?" Matt comforted her.
"No, no, no! It's not about the money, it's about number 26! He's Qiu Jichuan!" Hua Jingyi said in a low voice.
"Everyone was wearing masks, how did you recognize him? Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?" Matt asked curiously.
"I wasn't familiar with him before, and the masks we're wearing have voice-changing functions, so I wasn't sure if it was him at all."
"But when he glared at us fiercely just now, that look in his eyes, and the shape of his wide, beady eyes, I've seen it on Qiu Jichuan's face before, exactly the same, there's no mistake!" Hua Jingyi said.
"So it was him, haha! This is truly a case of finding something without even looking for it!" Bo Yiyan sneered.
Matt couldn't help but get excited and immediately used his mental energy to probe over and mark the man who resembled Qiu Jichuan.
He dared not openly use his psychic abilities, but something like making a mark was as insignificant as a speck of dust floating in the air, and would not attract anyone's attention unless the other party was also a master of psychic power and was on guard at all times.
But right now, that person was almost driven crazy by Matt's side, so naturally he had no mood to defend himself. Moreover, there were rules in this store that no one was allowed to fight or hurt anyone here, so of course he couldn't always put up a defensive barrier for himself.
Matt continued to raise the price, eventually pushing it to 100,000 points before giving up the bidding, which nearly infuriated No. 26!
He then deliberately provoked, saying, "Getting angry is bad for your health! If you're unhappy about anything, we can settle it outside once we leave this black market."
Don't act like a big shot on the black market; you'll become a coward once you're out in public!
"Fine! Fine! If you've got the guts, meet me at the Dragon Sky Training Ground in fifteen minutes. I'll show you how to deal with you then!" Number 26 pointed at him angrily.
"See you there! Anyone who doesn't show up is a coward!" Matt said, maintaining the gentlest tone throughout.
"Sirs, you can't go to the Dragon Sky Training Ground. Although it has a life-or-death arena, there are surveillance cameras everywhere. If they take pictures of your faces, you'll be in trouble," Hua Jingyi quickly said.
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid enough to fight him to the death in some kind of arena. I just want to find out his next move and, incidentally, find a suitable place to catch him." Matt smiled as he looked at Xiaobai and Boyi.
He wasn't confident he could take down Qiu Jichuan alone without making a scene; it would be safer if two big shots intervened.
Bo Yiyan rolled his eyes at him and said, "Oh! Lord Matt, you were so enthusiastic about arguing with people just now. I thought you could handle it all by yourself."
"Dr. Bo, I don't have that ability. I just wanted to provoke him, then mark him and confirm his route."
Otherwise, this underground black market is full of white-faced people. Once we leave here, where will we find them?" Matt quickly said with a smile.
The group chatted and laughed as they followed the others toward the exit of the black market.
