Chapter 27 The Rich Batra
September 1999, 9, Youkexin City.
Youkexin City is an international metropolis, not inferior to a big city like Flash City in every aspect, but its most famous is [Youkexin Dream Auction].
[Youkexin Dream Auction], held every September 9st in Youkexin City, is the largest annual auction market in the world.
In just ten days, tens of trillions of funds flowed through the public auction alone.What [-] Junni bought yesterday may sell for [-] million today!It's a dream market that grabs a lot of money.
Among the tens of thousands of auctions, there are many auctions for crime-related items.
The time is 20:41, Semetali Building, an [Underground Auction] exclusively for gangsters and gangsters.
The lobby on the first floor was bustling with people. These gangsters who came to the auction were all dressed in neat suits, and they were basically the most prominent figures in the organization. Even some of the bosses came to the venue in person.
According to the regulations of the [Underground Auction], the buyer can only submit a maximum of three people, and cannot bring weapons, recording equipment, and communication equipment into the venue. The gangster who holds the auction is responsible for the security of the venue.
Whoever dares to mess around in the [Underground Auction] will become the enemy of gangsters all over the world.
The most basic rule in the venue is [trust], so security personnel do not use anti-theft video equipment, and competitors will temporarily put aside the feud between gangs.In case of any disputes, testimony from all sides will be adopted, which is more important than the oath in court.
Therefore, the impression of others on the venue is very important. The bosses of various gangs and organizations will let the most trustworthy people participate in this gang's grand event.
In the auction, the party who won the treasure at the high price must pay 5% of the auction price to the organizer.In addition to showing your financial resources, you can also let the underworld figures all over the world know you, and you can raise your own worth.Every year, someone will spare no expense to win the bid, but in the end they are forced to go bankrupt.
The auction is being prepared in full swing here, and the Crozi Hotel, which is a few streets away from the Semetali Building, is located in the exclusive presidential suite of Roda Kingdom on the 27th floor. Heather and Rho Dakin Dom in a gown with a 'Trix scarf' is waiting for someone.
Board, board, board.
"Sir, Mr. Batra has arrived."
"Invite him in now."
Butler Gal pushed open the door, bowed slightly and stepped aside to invite the people behind him to come in.
This is an old man who can clearly see that he is old. The flesh on his face is a little loose, but his hair is still thick, and his eyes are very energetic.This person is the world's richest man, Batra.
"Batra, long time no see." Roda Jindom took the lead to meet him, and shook hands with Bartra.
Obviously, I heard Roda Kingdom say that he and Batra had only met once, but at this time, Batra saw the cheerful expression of his best friend: "Roda Kingdom, it's really been a long time, you You don't blame me for not attending your birthday party, do you? Blame me, your memory deteriorates as you get older, or you look young. Who is this?"
As if he had just noticed Heather, Batra stretched out his right hand to Heather very gracefully: "For the first time, I'm Batra Stovkin, just call me Batra."
"Heather, it's a pleasure to meet you." Heather shook Batra's hand and said, "Let's not beat around the bush, Mr. Batra, I believe you are here because you trust me and Mr. Roda Kingdom. ,Is it right?"
"...Mr. Heather, it's not that I'm suspicious."
After the three of them were seated, Bartra leaned forward slightly, with a somewhat urgent tone:
"I still can't believe that someone can reproduce the extraordinary power of the mythical weapons in ancient myths. This is really... incredible."
"[Nian] is originally a magical power that turns the impossible into the possible."
Heather sat on the sofa with Erlang's legs crossed, and put her hands above her knees with her fingers crossed, and said in a gentle tone:
"You're not completely ignorant of the world of mind-spirited people, right? Some [gods] in ancient myths are actually powerful people who have mastered super-powerful mind-power. Nowadays, science and technology are changing with each passing day, and mind-power is not without improvement. Is there any reason to retreat?"
"Heather has powers you can't imagine, Bartra."
Roda Jindom, who was sitting on the side, struck while the iron was hot: "We need to know why you need the power to heal all injuries, so that we can prescribe the right medicine."
Bartra was stunned for a while, then just sat on the sofa and fell into contemplation.
Heather and Roda Kingdom looked at each other without urging.
Rodarkindom had been in contact with Batra on and off for almost four months. The old man was extremely suspicious and completely distrusted Rodarkindom and Heather.
But the information brought out by those giant hyena mercenaries who escaped and ascended to heaven began to slowly spread and ferment. Even Batra heard rumors about Heather two weeks ago.
He single-handedly wiped out the A+-level mercenary organization [Giant Hyena] with more than 300 people. In less than 10 minutes, eight masters of mental ability including the leader Barbatore were all killed by him.
When he first heard this rumor, Bartra's attitude was completely scornful, and he even thought that it was a rumor that Heather and Roda Jindom made themselves to try to get him caught.
You might as well make it up a bit more exaggerated. Wouldn't it be better for one person to destroy the V5 alone?
But gradually, more and more relevant rumors continued to spread, and relevant details were constantly confirmed. Bartra couldn't sit still and began to use his contacts to investigate.
This investigation found a problem.
The video of Heather's battle in the Sky Arena is worth a lot of money on the black market. After Batra bought it, he invited the one-star bounty hunter he hired, Jez Jue La, to review the video, and he came to the conclusion that—— As long as he doesn't die prematurely, Heather is definitely qualified to step into the ranks of the world's top minders.
When he took the initiative to talk to Roda Jindom again, Bartra's attitude became very polite.
Then, the two parties agreed to meet in Youkexin City on September 9, the first day of the Youkexin Dream Auction.
For a while, the room fell silent.
Batra thought about it, he has already arrived here, and he has brought something. What else can't be said?If what Heather and Rodakindom said were true, then he had to explain everything to Heather during the treatment, and it was better to say it now.
"I kept searching for famous doctors and secret medicines in order to cure a person."
Batra took out a rough handmade photo frame from his bosom, and his hand full of old pleats gently stroked the photo inlaid in the middle.
Heather and Roda Kindom squeezed curiously and found a picture of a young woman.
"It doesn't look like your daughter or granddaughter, is it a lover?" Roda Kingdom confirmed that his speculation was correct, and winked at Heather.
"She was my love, I met her on a solo trip in 1986 and fell in love."
Bartra lightly touched the bright smile on the photo, as if she was afraid of waking the girl up: "Later, after I confessed my identity to her, she forgave me after being angry for a while, and was willing to continue dating, but she was very straightforward. She has returned all the expensive gifts she had given her, except for this crude picture frame that I made by myself as a treasure. I understand that she does not want people to think that she is with me for the legacy."
"We don't want anything but each other. So we vowed to dispose of all our property and stay together for the rest of our lives. But it didn't take long for her to have an accident...a car accident...she fell into a coma, as if sleeping. All the famous doctors I invited told me that maintaining the status quo is a medical miracle, and no one knows when she will wake up."
"At that time, I heard about the game Greedy Island (GI). It is said that if the game is cleared, you can get a spell that can cure all diseases and injuries and a elixir for rejuvenation, so I immediately collected information through various channels and deliberately Blocking the customs clearance reward information from the outside world, at the same time, I also began to collect a large number of mind devices and use the relationship to find those who have the rare and rare ability to heal the mind.”
"It's been 11 years, I just watched her just... fell asleep... I really tried everything, but it just didn't work."
Before she knew it, Batra was already in tears, and the hands in front of her were shaking constantly: "Please, please tell me, please tell me that you can cure her, as long as you can save her back, my property is mine. Everything can be served with both hands..."
A white but strong hand fell on Batra's trembling shoulders. Batra raised her head and saw Heather's confident smile:
"Don't worry, as long as you restart [Light Egg], as long as she still has a breath, I can cure her."

PS: In the last chapter, Heather said that she wanted to go home. Everyone's analysis is actually very correct based on the current information. Going back is death.But I will definitely not throw out such an obvious loophole directly, rest assured to look back, including the abnormal psychological state of the protagonist, everything will be clearly explained in the subsequent plot.
