Chapter 838: Chapter 611: Walking Right In
Blue eyes filled with indifference, directed at others, at subordinates, but not at himself.
Nigel Gale, after raising his glass to a businessman who came seeking him, turned around and his eyes were once again overtaken by that indifference.
The day after tomorrow is West Cold Auction House’s most important high-quality auction of the month. It was originally a good day for high-end members to communicate, but his good mood was ruined by that unexpected Sky Communication call.
A Federation officer appeared and effortlessly took away the Wang Family’s eldest daughter.
He’s not upset about the sudden situation but rather at the incompetence of those police officers.
Except for knowing the opponent is a Federation Special Team Captain, they knew nothing else. After two people died, they actually lost even the courage to stop them.
Worthless!
That Corbett is truly an unredeemable waste.
Should I consider setting up other interests’ representatives within the police station?
Nigel pondered elegantly, his slightly melancholic prince-like demeanor particularly attracted the opposite sex.
Not far from him, a socialite in a purple peep-toe dress caught sight of him, this famous golden bachelor from Mukana Planet, she was no stranger to.
Now it seemed like he was looking at her…
This socialite with a lovely face subtly adjusted her expression on her face, showing a charming yet slightly shy manner, her gaze perfectly meeting Nigel’s.
Then, the socialite was secretly delighted to find that he truly seemed to be observing her, and what made her heart flutter was that this golden bachelor was actually walking towards her.
So she put on her most charming smile, looking at him, and walked with a standard socialite step.
Closer, getting closer.
Nigel gazed at the opportunistic socialite approaching him, eyes flashing a trace of repulsion and disgust.
So he directly reached out his hand…
The socialite’s eyes lit up; she was about to reach out her own hand, after all, she couldn’t let the outstanding youth from the Gale family lose face.
However, that palm landed directly on her shoulder and impatiently pushed her aside.
The astonished beauty was brushed aside like a fly by that palm.
Nigel finally saw clearly the dashing young man in a blue striped suit opposite him, also wearing a perfectly “sincere” smile.
“Young Master Sun, needing patience to have a drink with you is quite necessary.”
“Hahaha, Nigel, my best friend, others may need patience, but you certainly don’t. I appreciate your tolerance.” Sun Ruo raised his tall wine glass and clinked it with Nigel’s full one.
“I know your habits, let’s be brief. How has the arrangement for my entrusted item been?”
Neither of them even glanced at the socialite beauty beside them, who was playing the role of a dancer, as Nigel gestured her to sit and converse.
“There’s no problem with the arrangement, but Nigel, my friend, have you truly not considered selling it? I’ve contacted six surrounding auction merchants, three of whom have expressed strong interest, willing to offer 1.5 billion Star Coins in cash to purchase outright.”
Nigel smiled, pursing his lips as he glanced at the young man, “This mecha’s predecessor already made it into the throne contention in the mecha combat tournament, and if not for this tournament’s accident, it would’ve likely become one of the thirty-six king-class mechas.”
“Regarding such a top-level mecha’s evolutionary model, not only do we at Red Fire Group use it ourselves, but a mere 1.5 billion Star Coins, Young Master Sun, you’re showing distance.”
He finished speaking nonchalantly, reclining in his chair, leisurely sipping his red wine, and inadvertently noticed the socialite’s resentful gaze, lowering his eyelids in disgust.
The socialite hastily bowed her head and walked away in anger, inwardly cursing.
Even though she thought he was a golden bachelor, now finding out he’s actually gay.
“Hahaha, just kidding, the 5% commission settled this time is already quite a sum, how could I take advantage of the Gale family’s rising star.”
“Joking indeed. This auction still requires Young Master Sun to take care of the security, because as far as I know, some restless individuals might come to stir trouble.” Nigel thought of that message, sneering coldly inside.
“You’re truly joking this time, who doesn’t know that number 77 Star Ring is one of your Gale family’s three major residences? Alright, alright, since Nigel Gale spoke, I can only accompany. By then, I’ll apply for a team of Star Capital Guard to come over.”
Sun Ruo waved his hand indifferently, not taking this matter to heart.
Barnard Star System to protect normal technology and trade, has established a massive Mecha Guard named “Star Capital Guard,” entirely composed of Warrior-class mechas, even if only the lowest of A-class, it is still a whole level higher than B-class.
A team of Star Capital Guard, that means a quota of twenty mechas.
Hearing Sun Ruo’s answer, Nigel Gale showed a satisfied smile on his face, raising his wine glass: “To friendship.”
“And to our interests.”
“Cheers!”
…
“An excellent money-laundering venue hidden beneath prosperity.” Black’s voice echoed.
“An excellent money-laundering venue hidden beneath prosperity.” This was Mu Fan’s reflection.
He vaguely recalled his first auction participation at Blue Capital Star Star Fall Auction House, which was when he formally got involved with Solomon.
Wang Nuonuo looked on with surprise and admiration in her eyes; she felt that his progress during this period of absence was entirely inside-out.
For example, this short yet direct phrase exposing the essence.
If she didn’t clearly know what Mu Fan was like six months ago, she would’ve undoubtedly believed him to be a noble offspring with aristocratic heritage—
Impeccable inside and out!
As she pondered, Nuonuo ran out of words momentarily, so subtly puffed up her cheeks.
“Master is the strongest!”
Finally, these six words ended Nuonuo’s judgment, and she satisfactorily nodded.
In her heart, the master is the strongest, omnipotent.
Riding a seemingly simple inside but silently descending Ghost Fighter back onto number 77 Star Ring, that alone is a huge miracle.
Yet now, Mu Fan is leading her towards that ancient palace-like retro castle architecture.
[West Cold Auction House]!
Three hundred meters ahead, one could see a line of patrolling Heavy Mechas.
Under the light brown paint, rows of real missile arrays are loaded.
The enormous pulse rifles swing back and forth with the mechas.
This solid force provides bidders with a sense of security but for Wang Nuonuo, it’s an omnipresent deterrent.
“The mecha is inside, I wanted to quietly gift it to you, but now they’ve taken it away, Nuonuo’s mistake,” the girl said with guilty eyes, she only wanted to gift the master the best present.
Mu Fan piloting Extreme Special Soldier fought for her that moment, she’ll never forget!
He saw the guilt in her eyes, and also saw her pain and self-blame.
Mu Fan smiled gently, lightly patting the top of the girl’s head, Nuonuo stayed still like a well-behaved cat.
“No, it’s their fault.”
“Let’s go, we’ll take it back, I want to see the gift you gave me.”
Wang Nuonuo raised her perplexed eyes, “There’s so much defense, are we just going in?”
Mu Fan smiled, glancing ahead at the surrounded ancient castle by numerous mechas and exoskeleton armored soldiers, then casually looked towards the dark and deep outer space.
He naturally said: “Hm, just walk in.”
After saying that, he stepped forward without any hesitation or delay, leaving only a towering figure behind.
Nose souring, the girl nodded heavily, she’s going to see how the master gives her justice.
On the long and bustling streets of the Star Ring, a man and a woman quietly walked towards that great auction house.
The young man wore a calm expression, with a composed demeanor.
The girl was delicate and bright, with shining eyes.
Only, Nuonuo didn’t know, in places she couldn’t see.
For instance, in virtual space, a three-dimensional model of a certain castle projected before a metallic sphere detailed to perfection…
And in the farther space, a fleet almost merging with the background silently floating.
On the deck of the largest warship, stood a “tiny” and battered dark mecha, silent and firm.
Crimson eyes…
Gently lit up.
