Ninth class citizen

Chapter 121 Auction (End)
Nan Rong's carefree behavior of sitting down was unexpected. The two guards behind Melissa tensed up and reached for their weapons. The chief guard even stepped forward and stood in front of Melissa.

She ignored them and said to Melissa, "Long time no see. You look much more respectable today than last time."

Melissa waved her hand and dismissed the guards. But they didn't dare to leave. They stood behind and stared at Nan Rong with eager eyes.

"I am a person who has survived a great disaster. I really don't deserve your concern." Melissa didn't expect that when they met again, this person didn't feel any guilt at all. She snorted coldly:

"If the guards hadn't come to find me, I would have probably been buried in the wild."

Nan Rong immediately understood what she was fussing about. She felt that she had taken the money but didn't do the job well, and wanted to get the money back? No way!
"The life of the next generation of Campbell family's head is not worth only 10 Cowans, right?" She said lazily, "I've already lost a lot of money, but I didn't expect to be misunderstood."

"What misunderstanding?" Melissa was furious when she saw her disapproving look.

"You add insult to injury, escalate the situation, and then unilaterally break the agreement. You still have the nerve to imply that I am petty?"

"If it were any other wild man, even if he charged you one million, he might not be able to save your life. And how do you know that I didn't leave because I knew your men were coming soon?"

Melissa blinked. She had actually thought about this, but Nan Rong's leaving without saying goodbye did make her feel frightened. However, things had changed, and she could no longer feel the anger she had felt back then.

"That's what happened in the past." Melissa raised her head generously: "Did you synthesize the first-level C-grade gene optimizer that is on sale now?"

"He's a friend of mine." Nan Rong said subconsciously, shaking his crossed legs.

In fact, her attention was always on the auction outside, and she only talked casually with Melissa.

Now the price has soared to 160 million Cowans, and the mood of the guests on the scene is hot and there is no sign of cooling down.

"A friend." Melissa repeated, her eyes fell on Nan Rong's shaking feet, and suddenly froze.

Waterproof high-waisted field boots with the Hilo Star logo printed on the top of the boot.

Not only that, the outside of the boots are also engraved with the names of the players in this Pan-Hilo Inter-school League.

So this lucky cat is also a student of Hilo Xinghua and a member of the school team.

She slowly raised her stiff neck and looked at the captain of the guards.

The head of the guard had noticed this before Melissa did. He had already retrieved the roster of the school team of Xiluo Xinghua and sent it to her directly.

There were only two girls in the Xiluo Xinghua team this year. In addition to Nan Rong, there was another girl from the College of Commerce, who was petite and had chestnut hair and eyes.

As for Nan Rong, haha, his height, build, hair color and eyes are exactly the same as the lucky cat.

How interesting.

Melissa smiled widely.

The head guard had a wooden face and silently took a big step back.

Nan Rong's emotions were fluctuating with the changes in the auction prices, and he was completely unaware of these subtle changes.

"Number 17, 230 million Cowans!"

"Number 123, 240 million Cowans!" "Number 7, 250 million Cowans!"

"Nan Rong! Did you intercept the medicine I gave you?" Melissa's voice suddenly sounded in her ears.

"No!" Nan Rong turned back subconsciously: "Teacher Melissa, this is me"

She covered her mouth, her body suddenly straightened, turned her head to meet Melissa's half-smile, and then sat back down weakly.

"Okay." She murmured in a low voice, "You did guess right. But there is no way you can get me to pay you back."

"Forget it." Melissa smiled like a little fox: "I can forget about the past. But when were you able to synthesize the first-order C-level gene optimizer? Why didn't you tell me?"

"I told you, he's a friend of mine." Nan Rong insisted.

"I heard that Mr. Atkin bought a second-order D-level gene stabilizer a while ago." Melissa said, "The effect of that medicine is extraordinary, but unfortunately he refuses to reveal the identity of the seller. Do you think it is possible that he got it from your friend?"

“Haha, how should I know?” Nan Rong spread out his hands, his eyes as sincere as they could be: “I also met that friend on Starnet, we are actually not familiar with each other.”

"Okay." Melissa stood up. "The potion isn't yours anyway, so there's no need to pay so much attention to it. You shouldn't be here at this hour."

At this moment, the bid price has exceeded 350 million Cowans, and the number of participants has obviously decreased.

Nan Rong was unwillingly held in the middle by several guards, and walked out, looking back every few steps.

"Master." The guard hurried in and reported to Kuroki Shouya, "No. 259, who dared to compete with you for the item, wants to leave early."

"Well, let them do it quickly."

".But she left with Melissa. We didn't bring enough people this time, so..."

"Why is she everywhere?" Kuroki Shoya stood up, paced a few steps in the private room, and said sinisterly:

"Call the major stationed nearby who offered to join me two days ago and ask him to bring a team of reliable men to handle this matter."

"Major Nakamura." A guard reminded. This time, he did not do it immediately, but hesitantly reminded:
"But she is the daughter of the Campbell family. If you let the active officers of the opposition army do it, and it is eventually found out that you are involved, the consequences will be disastrous."

"Idiot. Melissa acted so arrogantly. There are many people on the planet Xiluo who hate her to death. She asked for revenge. What does it have to do with us? Could it be that the guy named Nakamura dared to give my name away? If he wants to get close to the Kuroki family, he has to do something that others dare not do. Otherwise, what use do we have for him?"

Shortly after the hovercraft took off, the onboard intelligent computer issued a warning sound.

"Alert, the hovercraft has been targeted by an unknown object. The identity of the other party is unknown and the location cannot be determined for the time being."

"How come we can't determine the location?" The guard leader frowned and said, "Open the energy shield, start the full-speed flight mode, and connect with the other party at the same time."

"Inform them of Lady Melissa's identity. Also, notify the Provincial Special Affairs Bureau immediately."

"Beep! The energy level is lower than 20%. The shield fails to open. The full-speed flight mode cannot be activated."
