Chapter 182 - 182: Buy The Mask (1/2)

”The price will start at 6 million!”

”10 million!”

”10.5 million!”

”15 million!”

The bidding price soared higher and higher. Everyone wanted the mask. Others knew Vermillion Dragon wouldn't bid for it because he has his eyes set on the Black Egg. Knowing that they wouldn't stand a chance with the Black Egg, they averted their attention to White Bird's mask.

She Gu gritted his teeth, greatly annoyed by his incapableness. The Black Egg already had his hands tied, if he also bid for the mask, he's afraid that it'll dent the organization's wealth.

[She Lei]

She Lei was snapped out his daze when he heard White Bird's voice once again.

He coughed as a reply.

[It's a counterfeit, don't worry]

She Lei's tensed shoulders relaxed. White Bird isn't careless.

He knew that she wouldn't let any of her possessions be grasped by anyone, especially those with ulterior motives.

”Whoever it was that came here with that mask, they had given us an advantage.” Lillie said, her red eyes not leaving the mask.

Intertwining their hands together, Ethan listened to Lillie's one-sided conversation with She Lei.

Before connecting She Lei back with their devices, Lillie confessed that the mask was indeed hers.

Fortunately, it was a spare and she had never worn it nor held it with bare hands before. So, the mask was clean from her DNA.

Lillie just told She Lei that it was a fake to exclude him from this predicament.

But the matter that concerned them was 'who?'.

Who was it that managed to steal one of her masks?

Lillie's former organization Phoenix Rage was impossible to infiltrate by outsiders.

Unless the thief was someone from the inside.

A mole.

Lillie admit that her former organization wasn't as impeccable as White Bird. Since she was just an amateur leader, there were traitors, thieves and moles within the ranks.

She was extremely merciless with traitorous subordinates and wouldn't let them have a painless death.

For years, Lillie had personally disposed scums from her territory, as if she could sniff them out on sight.

Her subordinates would even joke about her nose being keener than a police dog's.
