Chapter 373 Heading to the Auction
Chapter 373 Heading to the Auction
"Ah, my stomach isn't feeling well today," Di Xing said, looking at the omelet rice that resembled the Unlimited Blade Works dish. He wanted to refuse, but Lingyi looked at him with a murderous gaze.
Helpless, he could only bury his head and finish the bowl of omelet rice, which was brimming with murderous intent. Damn it, he'd definitely trick that idiot Lian Shi into trying it next time. Doesn't he have the Sword Tomb in his eyes? He wouldn't mind having another one in his mouth, hehehehe.
As Di Xing contemplated his wicked plan, even the knife in his mouth began to taste sweet.
......
"Damn it!" In the dimly lit research institute, Jock slammed his hand on the keyboard, his dark eyes flashing with a fierce light. "Another failure. At this rate, when will I ever beat that bitch Ke Xue?"
Jock tugged at his hair. "No, I need to buy a few more test subjects. Hmm, they need to be sturdy enough to still be fun to play with afterward." Jock grinned disgustingly. "I'm getting more and more excited for tonight's auction."
"Ring ring ring"
Suddenly, the institute's doorbell rang, and Jock jolted violently.
His research institute, built specifically for his wicked hobby, was in a very remote location. It was already evening; who would come looking for him now?
Jock immediately activated all the security systems in the research institute. This was a world filled with incredible power, so the security facilities in Jock's lab were extremely comprehensive, even including thermal imaging alarms to prevent stealth.
After all the security devices were activated, Jock connected the camera at the entrance, and saw two men dressed in black, completely covered up, standing at the door.
"Who are you?" Jock asked through the loudspeaker.
"Open the door, I need to check the water meter!" the taller man in black shouted.
"My family doesn't have a water meter, so I buy water from Guihehe for my experiments!"
"Then I'm a deliveryman."
"Please leave it at the door."
"Community outreach is always a good idea!"
"I'm afraid of spicy food!"
"Your mouth is so big!"
The shorter man in black instinctively picked up on the joke, then realized something was off: "Wait, why waste so much time talking to him? FBI, open the door!"
"So you really are cops? I, Joker, am a law-abiding citizen. You have no right to break into my home. And what FBI? I'm still a BIL."
The short man in black broke down and started kicking the lab door. Seeing this, Jock burst into laughter.
"Kicking down the door is nothing! Come and hit me if you dare!"
Jock was stabbed in the back of the head and immediately lost consciousness.
Zero, dressed in ninja attire, appeared out of nowhere and swung his sword, exclaiming, "I've never heard of such a strange demand in my entire life!"
Lingyi opened the main gate of the research institute, and the short woman in black, Xiaoyou, excitedly skipped and hopped in.
"Zero-chan, your invisibility technique is amazing!"
Zero scratched her cheek awkwardly. What kind of ninjutsu was this? This was one of her pieces of equipment: the Flash Blade Machine - Optical Camouflage Shield.
"But Miss Zero, be careful when you use this trick in the future," Ai Xiao said, emerging from the shadows with her laptop terminal. "This guy's house has thermal imaging equipment. If I hadn't hacked in and disabled his security system, your operation wouldn't have gone so smoothly."
Ai smiled and looked at Lingyi with her signature bright smile.
Lingyi was charmed by her cuteness, but she also realized that the girl probably already knew her background. She immediately thanked her, and then she saw Ai Xiao run over to Di Xing, her face full of expectation for praise.
Di Xing happily patted her head and praised her. Ai Xiao smiled happily like a little squirrel wagging its tail.
"My plan is pretty brilliant, isn't it? By stirring up trouble and getting them to activate all their security systems, you can then hack them all in one fell swoop," Di Xing said, eager for praise.
"Not bad, not bad," Ai Xiao said, standing on tiptoe and patting Di Xing's head.
Zero Clothes: These people seem to have a mismatch between their intelligence and strength.
"Search complete," Li Fei Hua Yue said as she emerged from the basement. "As expected, the card spirits he imprisoned are below, but..."
The usually cool and aloof Li Feihuayue found it somewhat difficult to say, "Inside are two [Bull Warriors]."
"Bulls!? Is this Joker playing that fancy? Is he a zero or a one?"
Lingyi felt offended and glared fiercely at Di Xing.
Di Xing quickly shut his mouth, then materialized the image of the three brothers who were disturbing him.
"You three, tie him up and lock him in the basement."
“Okay, big brother!”
"Also, just in case, break his arms and legs."
"You're a devil, big brother!" Hearing this command, the three brothers were stunned. Satan had tattoos of Desmond on his body.
"This is nothing. If this were a transmigrator from another novel, he would have split the earthworms in the Qiao family upright and shaken the eggs until the yolks were broken."
"Ahhh!" The three brothers were terrified and quickly carried Jock away. They moved so fast that Green accidentally stepped on Jock's pants, revealing his diaper underneath. Hmm, it seems this Jock is a zero.
Wait, holy crap, he really is Billy! A small mustache appeared in Di Xing's mind. He slammed down his pen and shouted, "Get Billy!"
"Found it!" At this moment, Ai Xiao had completely hacked into Qiao Ke's computer and found detailed information about the underground auction.
"Jock needs to wait for a car at the Red-Eyed Black Dragon Road underpass in District 3 at 8 PM tonight."
"Then we need to hurry. Oh, right, Ai Xiao, search here for any content about referring new customers."
"Okay!" Ai Xiao's fingers tapped rapidly.
......
At eight o'clock in the evening, in a quiet, deserted underpass, two figures waited silently. A black sedan drove up, its dim headlights casting their shadows into thin strands.
The black car slowly pulled up beside the two. A tall, thin servant stepped out and bowed deeply to the man wearing the clown mask. "Lord Clown, we've come to pick you up."
Then, his narrow glasses scanned the person wearing the bone mask next to the Joker.
"Who is this?"
“He’s a new customer I recommended,” Jock’s voice came from behind the mask.
"Oh, my apologies, I didn't know who this gentleman is..."
"Isn't it a rule at Bai Xiang Ge that we can't ask customers for their information?" the clown sternly reprimanded the waiter.
"Yes, yes, I'm so sorry, but Mr. Clown, as you know, if you want to recommend new talent, you need to..."
“I know,” the Joker calmly removed his mask, revealing Jock’s face underneath, and tugged at his face to indicate that he didn’t have a human skin mask.
The attendant smiled. "Mr. Jock, this is the second time you've recommended a new person, so the information doesn't need to be entered again."
According to Bai Xiang Ge's rules, customers are not required to disclose their personal information, but if they want to recommend a new customer, they must enter their information.
The attendant then looked at the skeleton mask and asked, "May I ask how this gentleman is addressed?"
This is asking for the code name.
"Just call me... Mr. White Bone," Di Xing said after a moment's thought.
