Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

"If you want it, don't miss it! Once you've got it, it's gone forever!"

"Eleven million!"

After the price reached 1,000 million, each subsequent increase was 100 million.

Another voice rang out, his fondness for the mermaid no less than that for the Celestial Dragons.

So no matter who was in the upstairs private room, he was determined to do everything in his power to photograph the fish-man.

"Fifteen million!"

The Celestial Dragons called out their price once again.

"Eighteen million!"

It was that same guy who had just offered 1,100,000; everyone in the hall turned their attention to her.

They tried to figure out who this person was, daring to yell at a VIP customer on the second floor like that.

People are now discussing just how long this man can live!

After all, they had angered the VIP customers in the upstairs private rooms. Even if everyone in the lobby on the first floor were combined, they probably wouldn't be able to shake the power behind them.

I just hope the important person in that private room won't take his anger out on them.

"Twenty million!"

The Celestial Dragons' bidding rang out once again from their private box. After several rounds of bidding, the mermaid's auction price had reached an astonishing 2,000 million.

"Our VIP guest in the private room on the second floor is asking for 20 million. Is there anyone willing to pay more than 20 million?"

Before the auctioneer could finish speaking, Shiraishi Xiu shouted:

Thirty million!

"hiss!"

Suddenly, he became the focus of the entire hall, with everyone's eyes on him.

Shiraishi Xiu had somehow produced a cloth and covered his face, making it impossible for others to see what he actually looked like.

He had already recognized the voice from the previous conversation as belonging to the Celestial Dragons of Mary Geoise. Only they would speak in such a tone. Although he didn't intend to buy the mermaid, given their temperament, they would definitely continue bidding. He figured he might as well annoy them a little.

Just as Shiraishi Osamu had expected, the Celestial Dragon in the private room angrily slammed his fist on the tea table in front of him.

However, the investigation did not move an inch, but he immediately covered his hand and shouted loudly.

"It hurts, it hurts!"

Everyone in the lobby downstairs was instantly bewildered by this scene. Could the guests upstairs really be such a ridiculous guy?

"Boy, who are you? How dare you try to steal this mermaid from me? I advise you to stop now, or you won't even know how you died on Gran Island!" The Celestial Dragon naturally saw where the person who had married into their family was. He immediately turned his gaze to where Shiraishi Xiu was and shouted angrily.

But before Shiraishi Xiu could speak, the auctioneer began:

"Distinguished guest, this is our auction house. No matter how powerful your influence or how strong your backing, you must abide by our rules!"

Although his words sounded very forceful, there was a clear sense of respect in his tone.

After all, none of the people who could stay in the upstairs private room were simple, so he naturally didn't dare to provoke them easily.

"Hmph, do I need you to teach me how to do things?"

The auctioneer was somewhat embarrassed by the sudden sound coming from the private box, and his face turned red with anger.

He glared angrily at the location of the private room, but there was nothing he could do. The people in the private room upstairs were not people like him who could afford to offend them.

He had no choice but to give up and continue, pretending not to have heard, said:

"The highest bid has now reached 3,000 million. Are there any other bidders?"

After Shiraishi Osamu announced his 3,000 million Berries offer, he instantly lost a large portion of his competitors.

But soon another voice came from the private room upstairs:

"I'll offer 5,500 million Berries, kid. I advise you to stop your foolish behavior right now, or you'll regret messing with me today!"

"Hmph, a fat, big-eared fellow like you dares to threaten me? If you dare to continue talking like that, then let's see who doesn't make it out of Gran Island today!"

No one could question Shiraishi Osamu's words; everyone in the hall could tell from his tone.

If that guy in the private room continues to threaten her, he might very well kill him.

0. Requesting flowers.......

"Kid, you're too arrogant. How dare you say you'll make sure I don't leave Gran Island!"

"I see you're out of money now, which is why you haven't raised the price!"

The Celestial Dragon's voice reached Shiraishi Osamu's ears once more, but this time, a grin spread across his face as he raised his number plate and called out amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd.

Road:

"Sixty million? Didn't you say you absolutely had to have this fish and this person? Then keep bidding. As for whether I have sixty million, you can find out if you're willing to give it up in front of me!"

At this moment, Tianlongyuan, inside the private room, was gritting his teeth as he stared at Baishixiu below.

He absolutely did not believe that these lowly people below would dare to rebel against him, nor did he believe that he would actually have 6,000 million to pay.

But he didn't want to lose face in front of this person, so even though he didn't believe he could come up with 6,000 million Berries, he continued shouting:

"Eighty million Berries, kid, I think you should continue your winter break and see if you have that much money!"

Shiraishi Xiu, however, gave a sly smile and said:

"Hehe, I won't fight you for it!" (sound)

Chapter 0487: The Overbearing Celestial Dragon

What Shiraishi Osamu said made Jellian understand immediately that the reason he was bidding so aggressively was to deliberately inflate his own price.

When the auctioneer looked at Shiraishi Xiu, he was filled with gratitude towards him.

He even murmured to himself:

"This kid is actually quite pleasing to the eye, but he doesn't have much time left to live!"

The auctioneer's reason for liking Bai Shixiu's "947" was simply that Bai Shixiu had helped him drive the price to an astronomical level.

He also knew very well who the people in the private rooms upstairs were. People like Shiraishi Xiu, who had no power and sat in the main hall, would basically be easy targets if they clashed with the VIPs in the private rooms.

In most cases, the former will die without a burial place, and no one will even discover that he has completely left this world.

After the bidding between Shiraishi Osamu and the Celestial Dragons ended, no one else called out their price.

After all, even if these guys in the hall had that kind of wealth, they wouldn't dare to provoke the guests in the private rooms.

Every one of these people is one of the best in the world.

If you try to compete with them, you'll probably be eliminated the moment you leave the auction house.

Even though they had a strong desire for the beautiful mermaid, they would not risk their lives if their lives were threatened.

After all, it would be tantamount to snatching the mermaid on the stage at this time, so they were going against the guests in the upstairs private room.

Those guys could make themselves disappear from this world in far too easy.

"Since no one is competing with me, you'd better announce that this mermaid is mine!"

Upon hearing the Celestial Dragon's words, the auctioneer on the auction stage changed his previous attitude and spoke in a very flattering manner in that direction:

"Honorable guest, we still need to follow the proper procedures!"

"Whether anyone will continue to bid, this matter cannot be decided right now!"

To his surprise, the people in that private room became even angrier and shouted at him:

"You old codger, don't you see the current situation clearly? Who else dares to compete with me for this mermaid?"

The auctioneer was clearly displeased by these words, and his expression became very serious. However, since the person in that private room was the ruler of the world—a Celestial Dragon—he could do nothing but swallow his anger.

He continued speaking:

"The guest upstairs is asking for 8,000 million. Is there anyone offering more than 8,000 million peles?"

After a few seconds of waiting, no one made a further bid, so the auctioneer had no choice but to strike the gavel.

"80 million Berries, for the first time!"

"80 million Berries, for the second time!"

"Any more customers bidding? If not, this mermaid will be bought by the customer upstairs!"

The auctioneer struck his gavel very slowly for the last time, and he was still trying to engage the other 3.9 individual customers in the room.

However, due to their fear of the Celestial Dragons, those people dared not make any further bids.

"You old codger, didn't I tell you to hurry up and bid? Why are you still dawdling here!"

The auctioneer had no choice but to reluctantly strike the gavel for the third time.

"80 million Berries, third time, sold! This mermaid is the esteemed guest upstairs!"

Chapter 0488: The Mermaid Photographed by the Celestial Dragons

Thus, under the overwhelming pressure of the Celestial Dragons, no one continued to compete with him for the mermaid title.

So the mermaid naturally fell into the hands of the Celestial Dragons.

Shiraishi Osamu knew very well that they bought these different species only to use them as slaves.

Moreover, for the Celestial Dragons, all races in the world other than themselves can be their slaves.

However, it was impossible for Shiraishi Osamu to intervene at this time and save the mermaid girl.

Although many people in the hall did not recognize him, Shiraishi Xiu knew that the guys upstairs were his 10 "old friends".

Although Shiraishi Xiu couldn't see clearly who was sitting in the private room upstairs.

But he also knew that the scene of him bidding fiercely against the Celestial Dragons must have been seen by the people upstairs.

They must already be guessing his identity. If he were to jump out now, he would only be exposed on the spot as the former General Shiraishi Osamu.

By then, obtaining the historical inscription on the stone tablet will not be so easy.

"There was a slight hiccup just now, I hope everyone is not upset by it, and congratulations to the VIP customer on the second floor who won the bid for this mermaid!"
