C190 Pursuing
After the auctioneer finished his speech, he slowly backed down.
The customers in the private room upstairs all pressed the Extinguish sign and left through the safe passage. As for the bidders in the hall, those who did not bid took the lead and left.
Those who had gained something would need to go through another passage and enter the corresponding room. The money and goods would be sold out.
As for Qi Jincheng, he sat on the sofa leisurely and waited for the staff in the auction hall to personally deliver the items to the private rooms for inspection.
After there were no problems, as long as he swiped his card, he would be able to settle the transaction.
Regarding this auction item that was worth one billion, Su Xiaoxiao also felt very puzzled in her heart, and wanted to take a closer look to see what was going on.
She sat on the sofa leisurely swinging her legs, her eyes curiously looking left and right.
The furnishings in each room were arranged according to the customer's needs.
Su Xiaoxiao did not care about these. Originally, the inside of the room was only the simplest initial furnishing. It was the night that had put in a lot of effort to wrap it up and design it. Usually, there would be a lot of snacks inside.
But Qi Jincheng's place was different.
It was the same black and white color. Being in this space would make people unconsciously focus, and it was not conducive for resting.
This cold and simple design was very compatible with Qi Jincheng's temperament.
After waiting for about three to five minutes, there was a knock on the door.
Pi San saw from the visual doorbell that there was a service staff wearing the same uniform standing outside. Between the two of them, there was a small cart pushing a box that was neither too big nor too small.
He put down the curtain and covered Qi Jincheng and Su Xiaoxiao's faces before opening the door.
The two of them pushed the cart and walked in. Pi San first checked the thing carefully from top to bottom, from left to right. After confirming that there was no surveillance equipment or any danger, he pushed the cart in. After that, the three of them stood outside the curtain and waited.
Su Xiaoxiao was originally waiting shamelessly. When she saw something being pushed in, she immediately came over and squatted by the side. She used her hand to lightly poke the stone.
According to the legends, it was polished from meteorite material, so it was incomparably sturdy.
Su Xiaoxiao touched it now and found that this thing did not seem to be any different from ordinary stones. It was just that there were more bumps and hollows on it.
"Float..."
Su Xiaoxiao had just said one word when Qi Jincheng used two fingers to hold her mouth. He looked at Su Xiaoxiao's eyes and used his other hand to make a silent mouth gesture.
Although she did not know why, Su Xiaoxiao still nodded heavily and used her hand to cover her mouth.
She carefully observed this thing.
This safe was squarish. At the front of the safe, it was polished to form an exquisite and small lock. The lock was connected to the safe, and the design was very ingenious.
No wonder it was so popular.
Qi Jincheng looked left and right, and then carefully inspected the area. After checking that there was no mistake, he gently knocked on the wall with his index finger. Su Xiaoxiao noticed that he knocked three times in different degrees.
After Pi San heard it, he invited the two waiters out.
But this thing was not small. No matter how he took it, he could see it. Su Xiaoxiao began to be curious about how Qi Jincheng planned to get it out of here.
Under normal circumstances, if the auction could not be auctioned, some people would have the motive to provoke the auction house and rob or harm the bidders.
"Beautiful big brother, the door is here."
Su Xiaoxiao pointed to the door where the two waiters had come in and out and said. But just as she finished speaking, she saw Qi Jincheng fiddling with it. The bookshelf in the private room moved to the side and a dark passage appeared.
It turned out that the tunnel to Room 13 was here.
Her eyes swept across the bookshelf, but she did not understand how Qi Jincheng opened the door.
Because of the sudden incident, besides Pi San, Qi Jincheng did not bring anyone else with him. Now, Pi San could only push the small car with the safe.
Qi Jincheng and Su Xiaoxiao walked in front.
Su Xiaoxiao was very bold. She did not feel afraid in the dark environment. Instead, she jumped around and followed Qi Jincheng, looking at him curiously.
This passage was not short. It was showing signs of going down.
Su Xiaoxiao walked and observed as she walked. However, the inside of the tunnel was completely dark. There were no fancy decorations, so she could not see whether this was the same tunnel as the one she was walking in, or if it was in the same direction.
After walking for about five minutes in the passage, she felt a gust of wind blowing over.
After staying in a stuffy and small environment for a long time, she suddenly felt a cool breeze and smelled the fresh air. Su Xiaoxiao felt that her mind had become much clearer.
The tiredness brought by the late night also slightly retreated.
"Wow! He actually came out!"
Su Xiaoxiao spread her arms and walked around in the darkness.
The periphery of the passage actually led to a forest. She turned around to look at the tunnel that came out. It was more like a cave. However, the opening was very clever. There were dense trees covering it. As long as one did not look carefully, they would not be able to find any clues here.
Moreover, the auction house's location was very remote. Usually, very few people would come.
Thus, there was no need to worry about anyone finding out.
"Beautiful brother..."
Before she could finish, her tone suddenly paused as she curiously looked to the left and back. If she didn't hear wrongly, she seemed to have heard footsteps just now. There should be someone quietly approaching here.
Thinking of this, Su Xiaoxiao immediately approached Qi Jincheng and stood beside him. She looked around vigilantly.
"Beautiful big brother, Xiaoxiao seems to have heard footsteps."
"Eldest young master, the sound is at eight o'clock."
In every passageway of the clubhouse, other than the designer, only the owner of the passageway knew where the end would be. And these people were actually guarding the exit. It could be seen that someone had leaked the information.
Qi Jincheng and Su Xiaoxiao had the same thought. They both thought that the other party must have given a price that satisfied the clubhouse.
But this action undoubtedly pushed Qi Jincheng to the opposite side.
Putting aside the grudge between them and the club for now, the three of them would definitely fall into a bitter battle tonight.
Su Xiaoxiao stood in the shadows. She quickly observed the number of people on the other side, guessing how to help Qi Jincheng escape danger without batting an eyelid tonight.
Someone once gave an explanation, saying that the man who took the safe away back then had a special identity.
His medical skills were superb and it was easy for him to ask about it. Once he met you, he would be able to guess what kind of illness or pain you were suffering from just by looking at your face.
He was simply a godly doctor.
Therefore, what was stored in the safe that he left behind was most likely the mysterious pill he made.
A person only has one life and only one body. A pill with miraculous effects is equivalent to extending one's life.2
