Chapter 543 - 543: Count Ivan
Chapter 543: Count Ivan
Today was the first day of the auction on the Dream. Everyone was gathered at the auction venue on the top floor. However, it was not time for the auction yet, so everyone was having breakfast.
After Duan Qizhou returned to the scene, he walked to the seat next to Qin Fan and sat down.
Qin Fan glanced at him and then looked away.
If Si Huang was here, he would have found many familiar faces. Other than the Blood Flag Special Agent Team and Duan Qizhou, Dou Wenqing and his client were also there.
“I just went out for a walk and saw something.” Duan Qizhou lowered his voice.
“What is it?” The one who asked was Guo Chengxiong, who was sitting on the other side of Duan Qizhou.
Duan Qizhou knew that Qin Fan was definitely listening, so he said,” The organizer of the Dream has shipped four boxes to the VIP area. They want to show them to the Earl.”
“Each box is half the height of a person. Could the things inside be people?” Duan Qizhou had been following Qin Fan and the others for the past few days, so he had more or less learned about the mission this time. That was why he said this.” I asked if it was the auction item this time, and the person in charge said that he would be able to see it soon, but I think he’s just fooling people.”
Guo Chengxiong looked at Qin Fan upon hearing this. If it was really a human being locked up inside, then it was 80% a person with a special bloodline.
“That’s not our goal.” Qin Fan said expressionlessly.
Duan Qizhou and the others calmed down and continued to watch the auction.
At this moment, Si Huang, who was also on the Dream, had already been transported to her destination.
After confirming that the people who transported them had left, Si Huang did not act rashly. No one knew if there were any cameras in this place. More importantly, she still had to find an opportunity to release Wu Bao.
Although the five treasures were not ordinary hamsters, it was hard to guarantee that any accidents would happen if they were kept sealed in the metal cabinet.
Time slowly passed. Phoenix Si would occasionally move her limbs to prevent her body from becoming stiff. She calculated that about ten hours had passed. It was dark outside through the hole.
The curtains in the room were probably drawn. In the middle of the afternoon, without turning on the lights, it was almost impossible to see one’s fingers in the room.
Si Huang carefully opened the iron cage. After his eyes that had adapted to the darkness saw the cover in front of him, he rolled over and bent down under a billiard table.
From here, she could observe slowly and found that there was indeed a camera in the room, but it was not the kind that had no blind spots.
Should he wait or leave first before finding an opportunity?
Si Huang thought about it and decided to stay where he was and wait.
The box with Five Treasures was impossible to open with brute force. Since the person in charge said that he wanted to show it to the Earl, someone would definitely come and open the box.
Si Huang’s guess was not wrong. She did not wait for too long before she heard footsteps coming over.
The footsteps were heavy and light. The light footsteps were very rhythmic, making people feel that he was a very elegant person.
This wasn’t an exaggeration. A person’s temperament wasn’t only reflected in their appearance and behavior, but also in all aspects, such as the way they walked and sat.
” Earl, there will be one of these four items that will satisfy you.” The voice belonged to the person in charge of the cargo transportation.
“Is that so?” The voice that replied immediately after was low and a little hoarse, like an old wine.
This was a successful man. If nothing went wrong, he should be a successful mature man, just like the mayor of City H, Zhuang Jin, or even more outstanding than him.
“Is my princess inside too?” The man asked again. When he said the word ‘princess’, his tone was filled with affection that moved people.
The person-in-charge hesitated. No, Count, you have forgotten that Her Highness the Princess met with an accident on the way.”
“You shouldn’t have reminded me of this unfortunate news again. I thought you had already made up for this mistake.”
Although the man’s tone didn’t have much blame, Si Huang felt that the person in charge who was talking to him was frightened.
” Pa!” The vision in front of him suddenly brightened up, accompanied by the person in charge holding back his calm voice.” Earl, you can take a look at this first.”
Probably to make up for his mistakes, the person-in-charge quickly chose the iron cabinet with the five treasures. After opening the outer template disguise, he took out the key and used the fingerprint film to open the sealed iron cabinet that was half the height of a person.
From where Si Huang was hiding, she could see that after the iron cabinet was opened, a man who seemed to be asleep and wore an oxygen mask was lying inside.
Although he couldn’t see his face clearly, based on his figure and hair color, Si Huang recognized him at a glance. This man was Lei Qie, whom Xiao Jin and the others had been looking for.
It was true that a flower planted deliberately would not bloom, but a willow planted unintentionally would make a shade. She was looking for the five treasures, but she accidentally found this guy.
Si Huang’s gaze turned to the front and could only see the so-called Earl sitting on the sofa. He was wearing a pair of dark brown leather shoes and a pair of trousers.
“Who is he?” The voice came from the owner of the leather shoes.
” He’s the third son of the Pierce family. His name is Reich.” The manager didn’t believe that the earl had forgotten who he was.
“Pierce family? Why did he come to us himself?” The other party’s tone still sounded disinterested.
The person-in-charge interpreted his words as saying that the prey he had sent to his doorstep was too boring.
Realizing that Reich’s presence was unable to win the Earl’s favor, the person in charge walked to the next box.
This second box was where Si Huang had been previously. As the person in charge pulled open the black cloth, the empty situation inside appeared in front of the two people in the room.
“Hmm?” The Earl seemed interested.
The person-in-charge broke out in a cold sweat. He was sure that if he could not give a reasonable explanation that he was not playing with the Earl, he would definitely end up in a miserable state.
Was this a joke? However, the Earl was obviously in a bad mood since he did not see the princess. He was courting death if he dared to make such a joke!
Was this the deliveryman’s negligence? As the person in charge of the goods this time, he could not escape responsibility!
While the person-in-charge was anxiously looking for an excuse, Si Huang’s eyes flashed. She saw her own Fifth Treasure, who loved to act stupid, actually crawled out of Lei Qie’s clothes unsteadily. Then, it landed on both feet like a human and swayed with each step as if it was drunk.
“..”Si Huang was sure that the other two people in the room were definitely paying attention to this little thing.
From the moment Lei Qie’s metal cabinet was opened, Si Huang could smell a special smell that was slowly dissipating in the air. Just smelling it made Si Huang dizzy for a moment. One could imagine the reason why Lei Qie was unconscious.
