The auction had to be halted. The audience were told to remain where they were and wait further notice.
As Luo Qiu was deep in thought, a staff member came towards him.
Under his instructions, Luo Qiu and You Ye were guided to the side door. Several people were already waiting there.
They was Zhang Qingrui, a fast man around 30 years old, and an approximately 50-year-old woman.
“Luo Qiu, this is Ms. Dong, the sponsor of this auction. And that is the site manager, Mr. Han.” Zhang Qingrui explained in a hurry, “I’m really sorry about this accident. We’ll get it back as soon as possible.”
“…You mean, it hasn’t been found it yet?” Luo Qiu asked after a second of silence.
Ms. Dong looked at Luo Qiu, sizing him up.
She felt apologetic since Luo Qiu had lost his auction item which was due to their negligence, so she pacified Luo Qiu in a kindly manner, “Don’t worry, Mr. Luo. We’ve called the police. The thief will be caught soon.”
