"Please wait a minute."
Kaleb stood up from his chair, his expression slightly tense. "I hope the train can extend the time limit a little. I will remove the Demon Eye today, but please wait a little longer."
"Guest, for us, it is absolutely necessary to ensure the success of the auction."
Train Conductor Rodin's tone remained unchanged, but the feeling he gave off was inexplicably cold. "It's already the latest time to remove the magic eye. There's no reason to continue delaying it."
"Wait a minute! I will abide by the rules, but at least for now, please … "
Kaleb couldn't help but plead.
"Guest, I repeat, there is no possibility of continuing to delay."
Auctioneer Leondra repeated to Kaleb one last time, then raised his hand as if he wanted to send a signal to someone.
"Wait a minute."
But before the auctioneer started, another voice came into their ears, making them stop, and then they had to shift their attention to the person who came.
"There is no hurry to hold the auction."
Liu Xia made her way over to the rest compartment, and said to the conductor and the auctioneer, "I've already resolved all of the issues involved in this incident. I hope that the Magic Eye Train will give me some face and resolve this issue before the auction begins."
"Hidden danger?"
Conductor Rodin's eyes moved slightly, "What do you mean by this sentence?"
"It's very simple."
Ryuga said indifferently. "The appearance of the servant the night before yesterday, don't tell me you didn't notice it, and the servant's master is now hiding on this Demon Eye Train."
"Servant …"
Conductor Rodin fell into silence, then he said. "Even so, it doesn't mean that the master and servant will be enemies with our Demon Eye Train. The hidden danger you mentioned seems to be untrue."
"Oh? What if the master is the criminal who killed Teresa Fellows? "
Ryuga asked again. "If for you, ensuring the success of the auction is the first priority, then what does it mean to kill your guest before the auction begins?"
"What?"
Conductor Rodin frowned for the first time. "The master is the murderer … How can you prove this kind of thing?"
"I'll give you the evidence later."
Ryuga said. "Moreover, even if that servant doesn't intend to be your enemy, it doesn't mean that other servants won't target you."
In this train, there were only two servants in total.
In addition to the female servant who called herself Hephaeston, there was only Ryuga who was a sub-servant.
The threat in his words couldn't be more obvious.
It was true that the Magic Eye Train was a facility under the powerful Death Apostle, and there must be equipment on it that was comparable to the servants. But in the end, they were not servants themselves.
Perhaps the servants would not take the initiative to go against them, but they would never be afraid to go against them.
In particular, Ryuga was a ghost and had a strong immortality. Moreover, he was inside the train. If he really wanted to cause trouble, no one on the Magic Eye Train could stop him.
"… I understand."
Train Conductor Luo Dan's face wavered a little. After pondering for a while, he finally agreed to Ryuga's request.
"That's good."
Ryuga nodded. "In that case, I'll trouble the conductor to gather all the passengers on the train. It's time for this incident to come to an end."
…
After the arrival of the evening, the thick fog around the train was reflected brilliantly by the sunset. It was as if they were in the Golden Country.
After Train Conductor Luo Dan announced through the broadcast, all the passengers on the train gathered in the second carriage of the train, ready to participate in the Magic Eye Auction.
The second carriage of the Magic Eye Train was the stage for the auction, also known as the "Ten Thousand Demons' Eyeball Warehouse."
It could be regarded as a veritable Ten Thousand Demons' Eyeball Warehouse. The walls were full of glass cylinders that sealed the Magic Eye Balls. Even the magicians were shocked by the number of Magic Eye Balls. They looked at the walls of the carriage for a long time without saying a word.
Moreover, the size of the space here was different from the other carriages. Although the guest carriages were larger than the appearance, the size of the Ten Thousand Demons' Eyeball Warehouse was far more than that. Not to mention the depth for the time being, the width was more than twice the size of the guest carriages.
This seemed to be the use of a more advanced technique, which made the space necessary and minimal distortion.
In less than ten minutes, all the guests had arrived, including Emelo II, Grey, Collins, Karino Ryuki, Kaliber, Yvette, and Olga Marie, as well as a few other magicians whose names he couldn't name, all of them gathered in the eyeball bank.
There were even some birds, such as crows and white pigeons, standing in the corners of the walls. They were probably the familiars of the magicians who received the invitation but did not board the train.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
Train Conductor Luo Dan stood in the middle of the Eyeball Warehouse. There was an auction stage there, with several pairs of Magic Eye Balls placed on it. They should be the Magic Eye Balls that were going to be auctioned this time.
"Before the auction begins, this guest has something to announce to everyone," the train conductor said.
As the conductor spoke, he stepped down from the auction stage and gave his seat to Liu Xia, who came up from the other side, under the surprised and expectant gazes of the crowd.
"Your Excellency Yin-yang."
Kaliber, Olga Marie, Emelo II, Grey, and the others all gathered their gazes on Ryuga. Everyone's gaze was different.
"Before the auction begins, I want to take a little time to explain the murder case that happened on the train two days ago."
Ryuga paused, and under the gaze of the surrounding magicians, she continued, "Of course, this is for everyone's good. If I don't expose the other party's tricks, it won't be fair for everyone to compete for the Magic Eye Balls."
After Ryuga finished speaking, the whispers of the crowd suddenly disappeared, and they all gathered their attention on Ryuga.
They didn't care about the murder case, they didn't care about the dead people, but they definitely cared about the competition for the Magic Eye Balls. When it came to the Magic Eye Balls, they couldn't turn a blind eye to it.
"Then, I'll make it short, I won't beat around the bush."
Ryuga's gaze swept through the crowd. Under the gaze of Kaliber and Olga Marie, her gaze fell on a student next to Emelo II.
"Now that things have come to this, you'd better summon your servant first, otherwise, you won't even have the chance to escape from my hands. Cowles, no, the former magic director who disguised himself as Cowles – Harterese."
