While the manhunt is in progress

Chapter 919

The departure of the three men did not bring any changes to the auction site, and when they disappeared completely, no one in the concert hall paid attention to them.

"The auction of the second set of videos will begin..."

Lena, who was hiding in her guest room, spoke the lines according to Song He's instructions, and looked eagerly at the monitor in front of her, feeling that the nine coins on the screen were extraordinarily beautiful and moving.

But just after she announced the start of the second auction through the remote communicator, Song He's regretful voice sounded in the Bluetooth headset: "It's almost there, and the subsequent transaction price will not be higher than eight coins."

Lena was taken aback when she heard the words, turned off the microphone and asked quietly, "Why do you say that? Mr. Sun."

"Because the limit auction price appeared." Song He explained calmly: "Through the first round of bidding, everyone understands that eight coins is the highest price that bidders other than those who have been blackmailed can offer."

"So in the next two auctions, the remaining two groups of blackmailed people will definitely be the first to call out..."

"I'll give you eight coins!"

Before Song He finished speaking, a bid came from the monitor in front of Lena, and then the entire concert hall fell into silence.

"Look, no one is a fool, right?" Song He's sneer sounded in the earphones, looking very indifferent: "Lena, announce the end of the second set of video bidding, prepare to start the last bidding. "

Lena quickly complied, but seeing the eight extra coins in the hands of the notary, Lena's breath stopped for a moment, and she was puzzled: "But if we can unite a few more people, the bidding price should be... ..."

"Impossible." Song He said with a relaxed tone: "These people who received the invitation letter were not randomly selected by me. Each of them has at least two coins with them. It can be said that they are both ambitious and capable. guy."

"It's not that these people don't want to loot as many coins as possible, but when they got the invitation letter, it was less than an hour before the auction started, leaving too little time for them to respond and communicate."

"However, the real problem before them is that if they are not aligned, they will not be able to get blackmail rights and coins. They gather together in a hurry and cannot rashly form an alliance because of mutual distrust and how to divide the interests. As a result, many fragile small groups have been formed. "

"So it's not that they don't want to pay a higher price, but that they can't do anything!" Lena was stunned when she heard this, and at the same time, new doubts arose in her heart: "But Cliff and the others should be capable at that table?"

"They have no intention of bidding from the beginning to the end." Song He said firmly: "The reason why they came to the auction is indeed an invitation letter, but their main purpose is to find out who organized the auction. who."

"Because they know very well that instead of extorting a few lost dogs, it is better to snatch the coins that fall into our hands. And as time goes by, more and more people will like us."

"Look, after the third auction is over, it's time for them to get serious."

Lena was taken aback, and turned her gaze to the screen in front of her, just in time to see that the third auction came to an end after the blackmailer called out eight coins and no one bid.

It's just that after the last group of blackmailers picked up the envelope and left, none of the other bidders left, but all stared at the notary who put 25 coins into a small box!

"Mr. Sun..." Sensing the hostility contained in those people's staring eyes, Lena took a deep breath of fear, and felt glad that she did not personally host the scene.

"Are you still not reconciled because you can't get those coins back with your own hands?" Song He teased, and said in relief: "Don't worry, since you have arranged everything according to my plan, there is nothing to worry about."

In the concert hall at this time, the remaining dozen or so people were all staring at the notary staff closely, and looking at their expressions, I believe that if they could not use violence to snatch it, they would definitely take the box in the hands of the notary staff immediately. Grab it in your own hands!

"Keep your eyes open and watch." The half-race man who sat up straight with anticipation looked at the eager crowd with bright eyes, and said to Sarah Boris with a smile: "The next thing is these guys and the auction organization. The first fight between the two."

When Sarah Boris heard this, a trace of tension and anticipation inevitably rose in her heart, and she turned her attention to the notary who had become the target of public criticism after announcing the end of the auction.

However, the notary didn't care that he was in the center of everyone's eyes. Shi Shiran walked off the bandstand as if nothing had happened, and came to the open-air balcony of the concert hall in full view of everyone.

Seeing this, everyone got up and followed, secretly curious about how the notary would hand over the coin to the auction organizer, and at the same time preparing to find a way to entangle the person who took over the coin.

Just like that, the notary kept coming to the fence of the balcony, glanced outside the fence, suddenly raised his hand holding the coin box, and threw the box out of the fence without saying a word!
"do not want!"

"stop!"

"what are you doing!"

In an instant, the hearts of all those who were staring at the notary jumped, and several fast and skilled bidders rushed to the fence, eager to see where the box was going!
Buzz!

However, just as they leaned over the fence to search around, a buzzing sound suddenly sounded!

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound in surprise, only to see a huge drone flying away from the fence rapidly, and continued to soar in the night sky!
Under the drone, there was an open cloth bag hanging back and forth in the night wind.Looking closely at the outline of the bag, everyone immediately understood that it contained the box that was thrown over the railing by the notary!

"Damn!"

"asshole!"

The people chasing to the fence roared angrily or cursed with jealousy, but it didn't help. They could only watch helplessly as the drone turned a corner in the night sky and disappeared out of sight blocked by the hull.

After a while, the people who were full of unwillingness to look at the night sky retreated to the concert hall one after another, gathered their allies who had gathered together because of the auction, and left the concert hall in twos and threes.

Just looking at the way they whispered and plotted when they walked out of the gate of the concert hall, it is obvious that they will not easily give up the pursuit of the 25 coins.

Not long after, after the notary and the three cruise ship staff also left the concert hall, only the mixed-race man and Cliff were left at the table.

"Mr. Rhodes, are you interested in chatting with me?" Cliff stood up and bowed to the mixed-race man, taking the lead in inviting him.

"No need." The mixed-race man nodded back, pointed to Sarah Boris beside him, smiled and shook his head and said, "There are already four of you, if there are two more of us, the harvest will be severely divided. "

"Besides, I just want to be a quiet spectator at this event and have no intention of doing anything, so I'm sorry."

Facing the refusal of the mixed-race man, Cliff, who had already expected it, nodded to express his understanding and then ignored it. He sat back in his seat and looked at Bethel Pat, Carlo and Natalia who were sitting at the same table. He glanced at him, but kept his mouth shut and said nothing.

"Let's go, Cliff is chasing us away." The mixed-race man laughed and got up, and walked slowly to the outside of the concert hall. Before leaving, he still waved to Cliff and the others.

"Huh? What?" Sarah Boris, who was a little confused, was stunned for a moment, but seeing that Uncle Zhong had already got up and followed, she hurriedly stood up and hurried to catch up.

After they left, Cliff said: "The organizer of the auction is very cautious, and the layout is extremely far-reaching. Whether it is overall planning or execution of specific plans, it is beyond the reach of ordinary people."

"At the same time, they were taking advantage of a lot of people before the auction even started."

"Cliff, you are so reserved." Carlo sneered, glanced at the stern-faced Cliff, and hummed: "You can just say that I was used by them, don't worry, I won't mind."

"I suggest you don't make meaningless arguments." Bethel Pat clasped his hands and said indifferently, and then analyzed: "As far as the current situation is concerned, when they are indeed artificially creating blind spots for monitoring, The layout has begun."

"The subsequent selling of the information to Carlo, and then Carlo spreading it to others, was obviously a well-planned part of the other party's plan. The purpose was to induce others to violently plunder coins, so that they could secretly photograph evidence for blackmail. .”

"Judging from the results, the whole plan works very well. Just destroying some monitoring equipment and spreading information about the location of some monitoring blind spots, they got 25 coins in return."

Cliff was silent for a moment when he heard the words, and Natalia suddenly asked, "Mr. Carlo, who is the person who sold you the location information of the blind monitoring area?"

"The other party didn't reveal their identity." Carlo shook his head and smiled wryly. "In fact, on the Game of Gods account, many people who sold information to me will not reveal their identities."

"Because they're either saying they're trying to protect themselves, or they have ulterior motives, and it could be both."

"But no matter what, it's normal for the other party to keep my identity a secret under the pretext of avoiding being targeted as much as possible."

When the three of Cliff heard the words, they all remembered that when Carlo was on the ship, there was indeed a precedent of betraying the information provider and the information buyer in front of high rewards, and they were speechless for a while.

"Carol, to track down this group of people, your intelligence capabilities are essential." Cliff said seriously: "So, can you track down the person who sold you the information?"

"I can try." Carlo replied, saying that he would try his best to track it down and then added: "But there is no guarantee that there will be results."

Bethel Pat frowned when he heard the words, and after thinking for a moment, he looked at Carlo and said slowly: "Judging from the size of the drones used by the other party, even if they are all disassembled, a larger suitcase will be needed to carry them." store."

"That's why I suggest you check the luggage registration records that the invitees carried when they boarded the ship. We have no way to get this part of the information. You should be the only one who can get this information."

"It's an investigation idea." Carlo's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded repeatedly: "And the auction illustrated book!"

"The auction illustrated book..." Cliff and Natalia exchanged glances, nodded earnestly and said, "There is no trace of hand-made details in the illustrated book, so relevant instruments must have been used in printing, binding and plastic packaging."

"Looking at those pictures and related layout details, these auction illustrations can only be printed and packaged after the last coin snatching incident."

"So as long as we find the relevant equipment, we can find the clues left by the group."

"There is still time." Natalia also joined the analysis: "It is impossible for a person to appear in two places at the same time. I will find a way to exclude those who are not suspected in time..."

The four discussed with each other, and soon found various ways to trace the traces of the auction organizer, and confirmed the things they needed to be responsible for.

At this time, Song He had already taken back the drone from the balcony and pocketed 25 coins.

Not long after, Lena slipped into Song He's guest room from the balcony, and sat opposite Song He nervously and excitedly, the anticipation in the smile on her face couldn't be hidden no matter what.

"Thank you." Song He counted out three coins and handed them to Lena, and said with a smile: "Based on your outstanding performance, I can give you a part of the remuneration in advance."

"Also, if you want to ask anything, just ask as soon as possible, and I will try my best to answer."

Lena, with eager eyes, rubbed the coin in her hand, felt the clear touch from her fingertips, and suddenly raised her head and asked, "Mr. Sun, why don't we just blackmail those who violently snatch the coins?"

"Judging from the surveillance video, the three of them hold a total of 29 coins, and extortion can keep us hidden in the dark. Why hold an auction?"

"Indeed, private extortion is more rewarding, and there is no risk of exposure." Song He nodded and explained: "But this conflicts with our next plan."

Lena wondered, "The next plan?"

"That's right." Song He said carefully: "In the follow-up plan, I hope that these bidders who have been selected by me can form an alliance with each other."

"Through this auction, as the biggest beneficiary, we have successfully entered their field of vision, and at the same time, we have become a common enemy in the eyes of these people, making them realize that they cannot deal with us without an alliance."

Lena became more and more puzzled: "Mr. Sun, why did you do this?"

"It's very simple, to count them." Song He smiled as a matter of course: "Setting up an obvious goal for them to investigate can effectively consume them."

"Besides, if you don't break into the enemy's interior, how can you get the coins in their hands?"
