Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

The auctioneer's face lit up with a smile as he looked at the almost frenzied crowd.

Although he knew before the auction that the suit would fetch a very good price, he did not expect the price to soar so quickly.

It had only just begun, and in just a few minutes, the price had already jumped from 1 million Berries to 5 million Berries.

This shows how much these people longed to obtain this battle suit.

"Captain, this stuff was so valuable! If I had known, I would have robbed them all of it back in Germa 66!"

0. Requesting flowers.......

Crocodile whispered to Shiraishi Shu.

But what Shiraishi Osamu was thinking was no different from his.

No one expected that the few pieces of armor they had taken for granted would fetch such a price.

Shiraishi Shu simply gestured for Crocodile to stop talking, although his voice was now much lower.

0 ....

However, the people around him were no pushovers either. If they knew that he was the one who defeated the "Germa 66" kingdom, he would probably be entangled by them in an instant.

"550 million Berries, let's see who dares to compete with me for this suit. I'm taking it!"

A man in a black trench coat suddenly stood up from his seat and roared at the people around him.

He even smashed the seat he was sitting on to pieces.

Perhaps it was because the scene of him smashing the seat was deeply shocking.

As expected, under his threat, the guys around him who had been shouting stopped and ceased bidding.

Seeing how effective the people around him were, the man didn't continue to make things difficult for them.

Chapter 0492: The Battle Suit Betrayed

"Hmph, you dare say you've got this for yourself? I'll offer 6 million Berries!"

A short distance in front of the man in the black trench coat, another man suddenly raised his own number plate.

The man in the trench coat's face instantly darkened, but he quickly regained his composure, forcing a smile as he said to the man:

"Brother, could I bid on this treasure? Please do me a favor!"

"What face do you have to speak of, the '950'? I told you, if you can't get this, I absolutely won't let you get it!"

Unexpectedly, the man didn't give him any face at all.

Upon hearing the words of the man who had been arguing with him, the man in the trench coat's expression of agreement deepened:

"One billion!"

This is the maximum price he can offer; if anyone raises the price further, he definitely cannot afford it.

The man was speechless upon hearing his offer; he could certainly come up with over a billion yuan.

But he knew very well that after giving away more than 10 billion yuan, he would have no other money left.

Spending over 10 billion to buy a suit is not cost-effective for him, so he gave up competing with it.

The man in the trench coat assumed the item was his when no one else made a bid, but then other people started offering prices.

"One billion fifty million!"

"Strange, why didn't those people in the upstairs private room try to snatch this battle suit this time? You know, this battle suit can greatly enhance one's strength, don't they want it too?"

Given the level of understanding of the people in the hall, how could they possibly comprehend the strength of those distinguished guests upstairs?

In their eyes, such battle suits were nothing to fear.

They were even well aware of what the auctioneer had said that would get Shiraishi Xiu into trouble.

It's probably because Shiraishi Osamu didn't take it to heart that this happened.

So when the auction for this suit started, it was those guys in the lobby on the first floor who were bidding.

And this tattered piece of clothing alone has already been priced at 1.05 billion Berry.

Their target was the last item up for auction—the historical inscription stone.

Therefore, they absolutely cannot spend more of their money, not even this small billion.

Because in the final bidding, it will definitely come down to who has the more substantial assets.

After all, the historical inscription stone tablets are priceless treasures, and even if they have money, they may not be able to stand out from so many competitors.

"1.1 billion Berries!"

When the price reached this point, only two or three people were still bidding.

Apart from Shiraishi Xiu, the most ordinary customers in the hall could offer was around two billion Berries.

Although the suit looks incredibly powerful, they still couldn't bring themselves to spend over a billion Berries to buy it.

The man in the trench coat was determined to auction off the battle suit.

"Fifteen billion!"

As soon as the price was announced, everyone gasped in shock.

After waiting for a long time without hearing any other bids, the auctioneer finally spoke:

"This customer offered 3.9 billion Berries. Are there any customers who will offer a higher price?"

After waiting for another 10 seconds or so, no one continued to bid.

"15 billion Pelés for the second time!"

"15 billion Pelés for the second time!"

"15 billion Berry, the third time!"

"A deal worth 15 billion Baileys! This guest has won the final prize in this round of the tech battle!"

Chapter 0493: The Stone Tablet Appears

In the following period, several more treasures were auctioned off.

Now only one item remains to be auctioned.

Everyone who didn't know the situation was very curious about what exactly was that was left as the last item to be auctioned off as the grand finale.

However, the auctioneer clearly wouldn't do as they wished, and only briefly suspended the auction.

They were told they would have to wait another 10 minutes before the next round of auctions, and that the auction items were more like a message.

So when the auctioneer revealed some information on the last item being auctioned, the entire 10 auction rooms erupted in chaos.

Everywhere was filled with discussions about what kind of information could possibly be reserved for the final auction.

Shiraishi Osamu knew that the Celestial Dragons knew that everyone in the upstairs private room knew exactly what the auctioneer was talking about.

They came here today for this very thing.

None of the items up for auction today are worthy of their attention, except for this last historical inscription stone.

The ignorant people were discussing what the last item was, but Shiraishi Osamu and the powerful figures in the upstairs private room were trying to get their hands on it.

"Captain Baishi Xiu, are you confident that you can buy this historical inscription stone tablet?"

Olvia asked Shiraishi Xiu in a calm tone.

"Ok!"

He didn't give a definite answer about the medicine, but what Shiraishi Osamu was thinking was:

Even if he can't acquire the historical inscription stele through auction, whoever ends up buying it will find a way to get it back from that person.

The monument was given to us.

It took the auctioneer a full 10 minutes to calm everyone down in the hall.

"Everyone, please be quiet. I'm about to bring the last item to our auction stage!"

"I'm sure everyone is curious about what this last item in the auction is, and I'll reveal the truth to you in the next part!"

Immediately afterwards, a huge blood-red stone tablet was pushed to the very center of the microphone.

When it appeared, all the light shone on the stone tablet.

It was as if this stone tablet was the most eye-catching thing on the field at that moment.

"I don't see anything particularly special about this stone tablet, so why was it chosen to be the final piece?"

"Fool! Since it's being presented as the grand finale, it must have some value. It's just that neither of us has the ability to know what's hidden within it!"

"I have a feeling that the people in the upstairs private room will bid a lot on this strange stone tablet. Before this, they had never bid on 950, except for that mermaid!"

"Yes, I hadn't even noticed until you pointed it out. It seems they've all set their sights on this last stone tablet."

"It seems that our knowledge is too limited, otherwise we wouldn't even know what this stone tablet is!"

The hall was filled with discussions about the historical inscription stone.

Of all the places in the hall, only Bai Shixiu and his group were relatively quiet.

From the moment the stone was carried out, Olvia's gaze remained fixed on it.

"So, Olvia, can you figure out what's written on it?"

Shiraishi Osamu suddenly interrupted Olvia.

Chapter 0494: The Mysterious Guiding Stone Tablet

"It's too far away for me to see everything clearly, but I know it looks like a historical inscription stone tablet pointing the way!"

"It must have recorded the method and route to get there!"

Shiraishi Xiu didn't continue to make things difficult for Olvia, after all, their location was far too far from the auction stage in the center of the auction house.

It's not Olvia's fault that he couldn't see what was written on it.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please be quiet for a moment. Let me introduce this to you."

Everyone in the hall was curious about this stone tablet, wondering what it was that had caused such a commotion.

So when the auctioneer said he would be the one to introduce the product, a hush fell over the room.
