"Hmph. Sixteen million." Morita Ichiro snorted coldly. Shouting again. And Toms, who screamed fiercely at first, stopped making a sound. Watching Ye Luoxiao and Morita Ichiro compete.
"Twenty million. Old guy. Beware of your family's heirloom knife. In case someone accidentally steals it. Don't be heartbroken," Ye Luoxiao said lightly. It didn't seem like it was threatening. Rather, I'm asking people if you've eaten as casually. And Chu Zijie beside her cooperated to release a killing force. Shrouded in Ichiro Morita.
Captain Qin and the others sitting in front of them suddenly shuddered. Captain Qin turned around in astonishment and looked at Ye Luoxiao and the others. How could the murderous intent in them be so strong. He had also heard of the great names of Phantoms and Blood Demons. I thought it was just two more powerful thieves. But I didn't expect the killing intent on the two of them to be so strong.
Chu Zijie's right hand trembled slightly. A small ball of paper fell on top of Captain Qin's chair. And Ye Luoxiao and Chu Zijie are as if nothing happened. Still looking at Ichiro Morita, whose face has changed drastically.
Captain Qin turned around quietly. Opened the paper ball. It reads: Don't ask me who I am. I'll help you take down the bronze statue of the snake's head. Captain Qin grabbed the note in his hand suddenly. I couldn't help but want to go back and look at Ye Luoxiao and the others. His heart was full of amazement. Didn't you say that the Phantom was a Westerner. Why will help them.
Morita Ichiro stood up with a "rub". Looking at Ye Luoxiao, she gritted her teeth and said, "Don't think that if you are a phantom, you can easily enter and exit our Morita family."
"Retract your claws. Otherwise I don't mind. Let you break an arm." A hint of murderous intent flashed in Ye Luoxiao's blue pupils. Directly locked on Ichiro Morita. The latter subconsciously withdrew his arm. Then I remembered that Ye Luoxiao was just a woman. Look at her angrily." How dare you threaten me."
Ye Luoxiao leaned lazily on the chair. But all have no doubts. Her thin-looking body has a powerful explosive power. Even if it's sitting lazily in a chair at this time. It doesn't seem to be threatening. But if Ichiro Morita dares to say too much. He will definitely be killed by Ye Luoxiao as soon as possible.
"I'm just threatening you. How's that?" Ye Luoxiao's answer made a lot of jaws fall to the ground. They had never seen anyone who so easily admitted to being a threat.
Morita Ichiro pointed at Ye Luoxiao and was about to scold. Suddenly, a cold male voice came over the loudspeaker." Ichiro Morita. Don't try to challenge our bottom line."
"Good luck for you." Morita Ichiro muttered something in Japanese. Ye Luoxiao didn't hear it. But looking at the shape of the mouth also knows that it is not a good word.
"How. Mr. Morita doesn't dare to compete with me." Ye Luoxiao sneered again and provoked. She's not the one to cause trouble. But since you have already offended the other party, then simply offend to the end. What's more, they are Japanese people. She is a Chinese soldier. They're both now. Or in the future. Relationships are unlikely to get any better. It's better to offend to the end. And then wipe it out in one fell swoop.
"You. . . Who said I wouldn't dare to compete with you" Morita Ichiro was really angered by Ye Luoxiao's agitation. Angry shouted. Then you have to raise the sign in your hand and shout the price. I haven't had time to speak yet. A middle-aged man next to him who looked a little like him directly took down the sign. A low scold." That's enough. That's not what we're aiming for."
What else does Ichiro Morita want to say. But he was glared at by the middle-aged man and immediately sat down obediently. But there was a hint of resentment and murder in his eyes. is obviously resentful of Ye Luoxiao and the others.
But Ye Luoxiao didn't take him seriously. Instead, I was curious about the other goal that the middle-aged man said. There are two last things anyway. It's never too late to go after reading it.
"Twenty million dollars for the first time. $20 million for the second time. $20 million for the third time. Congratulations to this young lady. This item is yours." The auctioneer's hammer falls. But Captain Qin's heart didn't fall. Because he doesn't know what the Phantoms are helping them for. What if the other party asks for something?
"I'm helping a friend" Ye Luoxiao seemed to feel the doubts in Captain Qin's heart. He lowered his voice and said.
Captain Qin looked at the phantom wearing a half-mask suspiciously. Don't know why. He always felt that the girl had no ill will towards them. It's a strange feeling.
Ye Luoxiao pursed her lips helplessly. Blue eyes looked at Captain Qin and the others. Half-truths and half-truths whispered, "I'm not interested in that thing. I will sell it to you for the same price. I guess it's done my friend a favor."
The bronze statue of the snake's head was bought by Ye Luoxiao at a low price. This was something she hadn't expected. However, she was more curious about the next two lots. What the hell is it that can attract the attention of these big guys. She's seen it. Most of the people in the field. It is important for any one person to take out their identity.
And now all their eyes are on the auction table. Obviously expecting the next lot to be the one they had hoped it would be.
"The next lot. The Heart of the Ocean.theheartoftheocean.is a clear diamond with a vivid deep blue color.Weight.45.52 carats.Provenance.Tanzania in East Africa.Characteristics.Purple, green, and blue colors when viewed from different directions. Alias. Elizabeth Taylor's eyes. The diamond 'hope' that exists in the world is one of the heart of the ocean. It weighs 45.52 carats, has an extremely rare deep blue color, and it is said that it is not only beautiful blue, but also seems to emit a vicious light, probably because its misty history is full of strange and tragic experiences, and it always brings irresistible bad luck to its owner." With the introduction of the auctioneer to all the women present. Except for Ye Luoxiao and Chu Zijie, all of them had bright eyes. Look at the diamonds on the auction table that show the atmosphere of wealth. I want to wear it around my neck. Naturally, the last few words of the auctioneer are ignored.
Ye Luoxiao observed everyone's reactions. Except for the women who stared at the heart of the ocean with their eyes shining "hope". Others didn't react in any way. It doesn't look like this one. Then only one last thing remains.
"Ladies. We have to give you a detailed introduction to its lore. Stories about the bad luck that this diamond will bring. First out of 1909. At the time, Mayyohe divorced the Duke of Newcastle and blamed the diamond for the failure of his marriage and acting career.In 1920, May persuaded the famous silent film director George Klein to make a feature-length film, The Mystery of the Hope Diamond. and personally starred in the main role. The screenwriter of the film made up many stories. For example, the discoverer Tavernier was bitten to death by a dog. and the defeat of the Marathas at the British as a result, etc. Maclean's also added some characters to the story. Even including the Russian Empress Catherine II. These stories. Plus McLean himself did suffer misfortune later. It's all a mystery to this diamond."
