Thief Game: Starting with Obtaining the Kidd Card

"what's the situation?"

Everyone present was completely bewildered, exchanging bewildered glances, utterly clueless as to what had happened.

To everyone's relief, when they looked at the auction stage again, all the auction items were intact and properly stored in glass display cases.

Of course, this also includes the most anticipated auction item – “The Gaze of the Stars”.

Meanwhile, the manager "Shreff," who personally placed the starlight gaze into the glass case, had somehow retreated to a place two meters away from the glass case.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have redeemed a mini projector*1, consuming 100 system points.]

Hearing the system notification, Chen Feng silently rolled up his right sleeve and slowly stepped down from the auction stage.

"It seems there's a minor problem with the circuitry on site. The electrical technician will probably have his wages docked today."

Perhaps to ease the atmosphere, the host made a joke with a smile, which drew laughter from the audience.

After leaving the stage, Chen Feng did not linger at the scene and turned back along the same route.

Time passed slowly.

Five more minutes passed, and with the auction about to begin, Su Luoxue could no longer sit still.

Although she didn't want to do this, Arsen's actions were highly suspicious at the moment.

She had no choice but to contact the pursuit team members who were already prepared outside and ask them to come and arrest Yassen!

Having made up her mind, Su Luoxue let out a long sigh.

He then got up and left the audience, moving to a corner seat.

He took his phone out of his pocket, opened the contacts app, found Lu Yi's number (who was leading the team outside), and slowly dialed it.

Just as Su Luoxue dialed the number, a hand suddenly landed on her from behind.

"Falling Snow? What are you doing here?"

Su Luoxue was startled by the sudden sound, and her phone almost fell to the ground.

"A...Aarsen?"

Su Luoxue turned her head and saw that Yasen, who had been missing for more than half an hour, was now standing behind her, holding two unopened bottles of mineral water.

Just then, Su Luoxue's phone was answered, and a voice came from the other end: "Hello? Captain, how's it going? Shall we make our move now?"

"Ok?"

Chen Feng feigned curiosity as he looked at the phone in Su Luoxue's hand, then pretended to be puzzled and asked:

"Get to work? What do you mean, get to work? Don't you have any work to finish?"

Seeing the puzzled look on the person in front of her, Su Luoxue panicked and hurriedly hung up the phone.

"N-no, wrong number..."

Su Luoxue laughed awkwardly and quickly changed the subject, saying, "By the way, what happened to you? Why did it take you so long to buy water?"

Chen Feng had already given an explanation for this.

"Oh, there was a lady outside who twisted her ankle, so I went to help her out and called an ambulance for her. That's why it took a little longer."

……

Chapter 74 Real Kid? Fake Kid?

"I see..."

Su Luoxue breathed a sigh of relief.

Her smile returned, and she stepped forward to take Chen Feng's arm: "Let's hurry back, the auction is about to begin."

"it is good."

Chen Feng smiled and nodded.

The two returned to the audience seats.

As the clock struck six, the host's voice rang out again from the stage:

"Thank you all for coming. Our auction is now officially open! Please take a look at the first item – the Sword of the Knight of Dis, which was once worn by..."

The host's voice, amplified by the microphone, resonated throughout the venue.

The history and value of the first item auctioned were also fully explained.

"Alright! The starting price for this exhibit is 200 million euros, and each bid must be at least 5 euros higher. The auction is now open!"

"200 million euros!"

"205 million euros!"

"210 million euros!"

……

The calls for price increases continued, and within just ten minutes, the price had already exceeded 500 million euros.

With the auctioneer's gavel falling, this centuries-old knight's longsword was finally sold to a middle-aged collector for €585 million.

This scene left everyone in the live stream speechless.

"Damn, this broken sword is worth almost 5000 million RMB?"

"What do you know! That was the sword of a renowned knight from 16th-century Gaul. Its cultural value far exceeds its practical value, okay?"

"I don't care about the knight's longsword. All I know is that it's 6:15 p.m. Western European Time, and the time for the Maple God's announcement is almost here."

"Damn! It's true, I was so focused on that broken sword that I completely forgot about this."

"Let's get started. It's the middle of the night. If I didn't want to watch Feng Shen's live stream, I would have gone to bed long ago."

The second item up for auction was an ivory carving, which, after a bidding war, also sold for a high price of 400 million euros.

Then came the third, the fourth...

When the fourth item was sold with the sound of the gavel, it was 6:30 p.m. Western European Time.

At this moment, there were only two minutes left until 6:32, the time specified in Chen Feng's announcement.

At the suggestion of an unidentified person, the auctioneer and the host in charge of the auction temporarily stopped the auction.

A dozen or so royal guards from the Kingdom of Lorqing took to the stage and surrounded the glass case containing the "Starlight Gaze" ring, watching their surroundings warily.

in the audience.

Su Luoxue was filled with tension, her hands tightly gripping Chen Feng's clothes, as if she were guarding against his sudden disappearance, not daring to relax her guard in the slightest.

"Luoxue, you seem a little too nervous?"

Chen Feng's gentle voice reached Su Luoxue's ears.

Upon hearing the sound, Su Luoxue turned to look at the person beside her, but in the end, she didn't say anything, only smiled and shook her head.

Two minutes left...

Su Luoxue silently recited the words in her heart, and unconsciously clenched her hand on Chen Feng's clothes even tighter.

Chen Feng didn't care at all. He simply opened a bottle of water and handed it to Su Luoxue.

"Have some water."

"Ah."

Su Luoxue nodded, and just as she brought the water bottle to her lips, she immediately thought of something else.

After hesitating for a second, she handed the water bottle back: "You drink it, I'm not thirsty."

Seeing this, Chen Feng couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing.

Is she worried I might drug her? She's quite wary...

However, Chen Feng didn't care about this.

Chen Feng took a sip of water from the bottle, glanced calmly at the sunroof, and said nothing more.

Da da da……

The pendulum of the antique clock at the auction swung back and forth, making a constant clicking sound.

No one spoke; the place was unusually quiet for a venue with thousands of spectators. Only breathing could be clearly heard.

The chat in the live stream gradually thinned out. Everyone was waiting for the two pointers on the disc to overlap, and for the white figure to appear!

click!

As the minute hand completes its turn, the two hands, one long and one short, completely overlap.

At that very moment, as if guided, all the lights in the venue went out at the same second!

Another uproar erupted at the scene.

However, the security captain on the auction stage showed no concern whatsoever. Instead, he confidently picked up his walkie-talkie and said, "Activate the second circuit immediately!"

After all, Chen Feng has taken action so many times, how could they not have absorbed any experience?

To deal with Chen Feng, they had long ago divided the circuit into two independent lines to prevent Chen Feng from using this tactic.

"Captain... the second circuit... isn't responding either."

The sound from the walkie-talkie immediately made the security captain, who had just been looking calm and collected, frown.

"Repair it! Repair it right now! And what about the backup power? Use it too!"

There was a pause on the walkie-talkie, then the voice came through again: "We've tried everything immediately, they're all malfunctioning..."

The security captain was completely stunned upon hearing the news.

Before he could come up with a solution, Chen Feng's voice came from loudspeakers all around.

"Ladies and gentlemen... welcome to the world of magic!"

As soon as he finished speaking, countless white doves flew out from behind the audience.

It flapped its wings and came to the ceiling.

It quickly formed a white ring, surrounding the skylight in the middle.
