Soon it was the day of the auction.
Very few people used their real identities at an underground auction like this. Almost everyone used their pseudonyms and wore masks to the auction.
Qiao Yue searched for Andy in the crowd.
But Andy wasn’t there.
“Andy, where are you? Isn’t today D-day?”
“Don’t worry, I’ll be there in time.”
Andy’s reply came. There seemed to be sound of waves at his end. He was probably on the deck.
Just as Qiao Yue was about to ask more questions, it was time for the third auction item.
It was a carved pistol with beautiful carvings and a “Qing” character.
“This pistol was donated by Mr. K from Room 304. It belonged to his beloved when she was alive. He donated this item to remind all of us to cherish what we love.”
Qiao Yue’s eyes turned to the legendary Mr. K.
He wasn’t in a black suit like most people here. Instead, he wore a long white robe with sleeves that fluttered in the wind. He looked like an immortal.
Qiao Yue looked at the scar on his hand. It was indeed the Godfather’s scar.
It seemed that Mr. K was the Godfather in disguise.
“Mr. K’s starting price is 500,000 yuan.”
Although the color and quality of the pistol was good, it looked old and well used.
Although 500,000 yuan wasn’t a lot of money to the people here, no one was willing to buy a possibly useless gun.
“Does the gun still work?”
“Yeah, who knows if this old pistol still works? We don’t want to buy a broken gun.”
The crowd was in a heated discussion, but Mr. K, who was at the center of the discussion, didn’t say anything. He just looked at the crowd quietly.
“I can invite someone who knows how to fire a gun to test it.” The emcee said as he looked at Qiao Yue, “Miss, how about you?”
Qiao Yue stood up slowly and walked up to the stage.
She reached out and grabbed the gun.
There were still faint bloodstains on the gun, and the “Qing” character engraved on it was worn down. Qiao Yue looked at the character and suddenly felt a pain in her heart.
A strange memory entered her mind.
In a sea of fire, the woman raised her gun and pointed it at the man opposite her. The man looked at the woman in the sea of fire, his white robe fluttering in the wind.
“Austin, why won’t you let us go? I’ve never wronged you in any way. Why are you doing this to me?” The woman’s voice was hoarse.
“Teacher, I’ve always respected you. If you’re willing to be with me, I’ll let you and your child go. But you will return to the Eugene family with me. I’ll give you a new identity and make you my bride forever.”
In this memory, the man’s voice was so clear. It was the Godfather’s voice.
Qiao Qing covered Qiao Yue’s ears.
That was the five-year-old Qiao Yue.
The flames rose higher and higher, as if it was going to engulf the entire house.
The man stood in the distance and revealed a playful smile. “Teacher, why won’t you be with me? With you, the AST and the Eugene family can control the world.”
“I won’t join you in your dirty work!”
Even though her ears were covered, Qiao Yue could still hear the voices of her mother and the man.
In the next palt of her memory, Qiao Yue’s vision turned black, and flames surrounded her.
The next part of her memory was filled with the smell of disinfectant in a hospital.
A golden pocket watch swung in front of her eyes. As it swung, someone chanted strange words.
“Qiao Yue, your mother died of illness. Your mother died of illness.”
This was a memory of hypnosis.
Qiao Yue clenched the pistol with her hand to make the memory go away.
“Miss, we have an apple here. If you shoot the apple with the pistol, you’ll prove that the gun is not broken.” The host revealed a mechanical smile.
Qiao Yue looked at Mr. K in the distance and pointed the pistol at him. Memories of the past suddenly poured into her mind.
She was in the hospital and the man had placed the same gun in her hand.
“You have to learn how to use a gun. This is the first lesson I’m teaching you.” The man looked at her and revealed a gentle smile.
“But why do I have to learn this?” The young Qiao Yue asked.
“Only by learning all these can you replace that woman and become my bride.”.
