The Sabbath Chapter 153: Deep at the bottom of the tower, or, the top of the tower.
The booth where the auction items were placed before disappeared without knowing when, and only the black curtain background remained on the stage, and as the auctioneer's voice fell, the original black background suddenly began to light up, and the portraits Type it out on the curtain, in groups of four, five rows in total from top to bottom!
The portraits with expressionless faces stayed on the background for a few seconds. Soon, the portraits disappeared, replaced by real-time surveillance images similar to those captured by surveillance cameras. There are a total of twenty grids, each corresponding to the previous People in portraits.
Ronggui saw the background of these places at a glance.
It's a prison cell! Here's a picture of everyone in their own cells!
Some of them were in a daze, some were still sleeping, some looked happy, as if they were chatting with the prisoner opposite, and some were doing handwork.
Among these many people, Ronggui saw a familiar face: it was Kerry! The bartender at Gigi's Bar! The bartender who cleaned up his mess after he made a mistake and sent his drink to the wrong person!
Ronggui was stunned.
At this moment, the picture on the curtain changed again. All the pictures disappeared, replaced by lines of words and numbers.
Ronggui was dizzy looking at it, but he still managed to understand that those were descriptions of various data about the body. Height, weight, and blood type were only the most basic, and there were more subtle ones, such as the length and thickness of blood vessels. , blood lipid content, circumference and thickness of various organs, my past medical history, daily eating habits, etc., etc., are very detailed.
Because the data is too large, the screen is played page by page.
"Please rest assured that all donors are voluntary. They are willing to share part of their bodies with those who need them more in order to atone for their sins, and such willing donors are easier to integrate into the new environment."
"Dr. Barold has already proved this through long-term research." The auctioneer also introduced it as the guests browsed.
"Okay, without further ado, let's start a new round of bidding!"
Ronggui saw that many guests beside him who had lowered their heads and almost fell asleep straightened up and leaned forward. They picked up the bidding cards that were put aside.
Next, starting from the person on the first photo in the upper left corner, the auction started off the field.
This person is auctioning part of his intestines, part of his liver, and part of his kidney. It seems that he is a little older, so he is not popular;
Soon to the second person.
This is a woman, and what she is auctioning is her own hair! The entire scalp can be cut to participate in the transplant, in addition, she also provided the complete skin of her back.
Ronggui saw many customers starting to raise their placards to bid for the auction.
Brain went blank, Ronggui felt that everything in front of him was not real at all, but the auction proceeded very quickly, and soon came to the bartender that Ronggui knew.
"Xiaomei" Ronggui called Xiaomei's name reflexively, and then saw Xiaomei who was quietly looking at the auction stage, looking calm, but actually very dazed.
Then, his eyes fell on Purda who was holding the bidding card next to him.
"Please lend me this."
As the ones brought in, he and Xiaomei are not eligible to bid.
Someone has already started calling for prices, but Purda has not moved yet. In desperation, Ronggui grabbed Purda's hand and raised the sign up.
In this way, he is considered to be participating in the auction, and that's all he knows.
"Hey, I can help you take pictures, but it's not a good idea." Let Ronggui hold his hand, Purda raised his eyebrows at him.
"I, I" Ronggui talked for a long time, but didn't say a word.
There are too many things he doesn't understand, and he doesn't know whether what he is doing is the right thing, but he feels that he has no way to do nothing.
The person being auctioned is someone he knows! He is still the person who often helps him deal with customers and teaches him how to mix drinks from time to time!
When he was in Jiji's room, he could always see him walking back and forth across the street, watching him shave and wash his face, and watching him practice the posture of bartending, this is a real person!
And what he participated in the auction was nothing but all internal organs including the heart!
Rong Gui didn't know what to say, the only thing he could do was hold up the sign.
However——
"Purda has raised the sign, this product must be good." Thanks to Xiaomei's well-developed hearing system, he heard the whispers around him.
Completely different from the previous situation where only a few people raised their cards, Ronggui saw that the "guests" around him raised their cards one after another.
Hands and bidding cards are like leaves and branches, Ronggui seems to have suddenly fallen into a forest.
Compared with the others, his raised hand holding Purda was barely visible.
He later raised his cards twice more, but he was still unfamiliar with the guests who were bound to win around him.
"Congratulations to customer No. 123 for obtaining the ownership of this auction item!" While the small hammer in his hand fell heavily, the auctioneer's finger pointed in one direction. Like everyone else, Ronggui couldn't help but look in that direction. Then people who see
He also knows.
It was the man from Sky City whom he met at Analo's place at the beginning.
The one whose donor got away.
All of a sudden, the palm was released from the bidding card in Purda's hand, Ronggui was a little at a loss.
The time that followed was like a dream.
He saw the mermaid.
A legendary half-human, half-fish creature. I thought it was only found in fairy tales, but I didn't expect to see it for real today.
Being locked in a huge fish tank is also an auction item.
"This is Huo Anbisi people. There are not many of them. If you see one, you will lose one. If you like it, please buy it as soon as possible." Accompanied by the bewitching voice of the auctioneer, there was another burst of noise at the scene
.
Then, the auction item became a child.
"These children are wild cats without any identification. They are people who do not exist in this world. They can be bought back and used for any purpose without any legal responsibility"
Ronggui listened to the auctioneer's voice in a daze, he understood every word the other said, but he couldn't understand it.
The things he received today exceeded his capacity, so he ran out.
"Wait by the bronze statue on the right side of the entrance of the auction house, don't go anywhere." Just before he ran out, he heard Xiaomei say to him.
Nodding, Ronggui just ran out.
Pushing open the door, the outside is very dark, just like an ordinary prison cell.
The auction house with gorgeous decoration and bright lights is like a nightmare, and he has shut the door out.
Finding the bronze statue that Xiaomei mentioned, Ronggui knelt down and hugged his knees with both hands, he remained motionless.
He seemed to be thinking a lot in his mind, but he seemed to be thinking of nothing.
Just squatting there, squatting until he almost merged with the statue next to him.
He vaguely felt that the door of the auction house opened again, and then a large number of people came out of it, and everyone turned a blind eye to him. He saw many feet walking past him.
Then, someone stopped in front of him.
Familiar shoes, familiar little feet, and a tail-like charging cable dragged between the familiar feet.
"Xiaomei" Ronggui immediately hugged the person in front of him.
Then he was also hugged by the opponent's backhand.
Xiaomei's head leaned heavily on Ronggui's shoulder, and finally Ronggui patted his head lightly.
"It's terrible." Ronggui finally expressed the fear in his heart.
Xiaomei didn't speak, but just put her head closer to Ronggui's hand.
A pair of feet stood in front of the two of them, drinking a cup of drink that looked good, and Purda stood beside them.
The drink is given by the organizer, and all the guests who get the goods can get a drink when they receive their trophies.
Purda held the cup in one hand and a small exquisite gift box in the other.
Looking at the two little robots embracing each other, Purda took another two sips of his drink, and said after a while: "You two are too white, not suitable for this kind of place."
"I have already received the operation payment." He held up the exquisite gift box, and then said: "The operation will be performed in three days."
"Let me do it. This operation should be foolproof. After the operation is over, you two should take your bodies and leave quickly."
"Advice for both of you."
"Or go to the lowest place, the darkest place."
"Or just go up the tower."
"Deep at the bottom of the tower, or, at the top of the tower."
"In this world, there should only be these two places suitable for novices like you."
After finishing speaking, there was another sound of drinking.
Purda walked forward slowly.
Looking up at Purda's back, Ronggui's mouth opened, and finally he only said one sentence: "Let's go too."
"Hurry up and find Jiji, and see what to do with this matter."
In this way, after saying goodbye to Purda, the two little robots rushed to the ninety-ninth floor of the basement.
"What? Did that guy actually do such a thing?" Almost the moment she heard what Ronggui said to herself, Jiji jumped up.
With half of the makeup on her face and her skirt still stuck around her waist, Gigi looks a little scary.
His expression changed several times, and finally, as if he had made a very careful decision, he suddenly put his hands on Ronggui.
"I said why hasn't that guy called me now, he should not be here anymore."
"I can't leave him alone like this, I have to go and see him."
Jiji said so, Ronggui nodded repeatedly.
"But you also know that although this place is free on the surface, there are actually many jailers."
"They look like guests, but they've been spying on us."
"If I leave, I will be found immediately, this and this"
Jiji bit her lip, and finally looked at Ronggui resolutely: "After thinking about it, I can only ask you."
"While I'm away, can you please pretend to be me and stay here for me?"
"You don't have to go out, just say you're not feeling well, just lie on the bed."
"There is no other way, I can only ask you!"
Jiji looked at Ronggui seriously.
