Zombies

47: Auction (1)

The large, luxurious building looks crowded crowded with several people waiting in line. The European-style building is so sturdy and striking, with both pillars propped up on the front to support the protective ceiling from the sunburn. Some of the waiters chatted, or fanned themselves and complained about the process for too long. Don't blame the process, blame why today is too hot. The new event will start in 4 hours, but everyone is already queuing up and afraid they will have trouble reaching their seats.

For a moment, Nanda was somewhat stunned by the sight before her. Oh, so many people, can everything be accommodated? But getting information from the air that blows, Nanda realized that this luxurious building has a basement that is as big as a basketball court. Its astonishing size, enough to accommodate up to more than a thousand people.

"Do we have to wait in line?" Luna opened her voice, hesitatingly staring at such a long and stuffy queue. Being stuck in the ocean of humans is not something fun. Some of the people who formed this group clearly felt condescending to move in line.

Nanda and Ganesah did not go alone. They went with the King's group. The elite want to have fun. Cuddle them class 2 tickets, better take advantage of the opportunity. Who knows if they got what they wanted. Although the King's group only has the King, Luna, Putra, Dwi and Ifa, it is still an elite group of the King's group, right?

"This is for a 3rd class chair," Ifa furrowed her brows, a pair of irises gazing into a crowded place, but also wandering around looking for another not-so-dense side. "We are 2nd class seats, should be 2nd and 1st class seats separated" he said.

"Really, right! First and second grade should be separated," The son nodded in agreement. His eyes moved wildly, looking for a crack. A pair of eyes narrowed, using his ability as best as possible until finally the serious facial expression turned radiant with a radiant face. "Well! There!" he pointed to the left side of the building. All eyes reflexively looked towards the pointing finger, showing off the far quieter end of the building but guarded by a pair of muscular men who looked strong.

"Here?" Dwi hesitated, but the King did not think too much. He immediately walked towards the area designated by the son, making another subordinate, inevitably also have to follow. Luna who was very rare to the outside, unceasingly looked at the surroundings with great interest. His head turned to the right and to the left, watching his surroundings like a child curious about the outside world. But the two white hands were outstretched, hugging the King's sturdy arms, making the expression of the man held, clearly more tender and pleased.

Their group arrived in front of the two burly officers. The two men apparently kept a double door open on the other side of the wall. There was someone else standing at the door. A beautiful woman dressed formally-clearly in contrast to the guest-welcoming woman that Ganesha and Nanda had previously met.

"Hello, welcome. The area is exclusively for first and second class guests," the woman greeted, smiled kindly and clearly warned that the door was only for those with 1st and 2nd class tickets.

"We're from 2nd grade," Son unhesitatingly opened his voice. Go ahead and show off some of the tickets they got. His eyes were clearly much brighter the moment he heard the woman explain. Oh, the guess is right! This makes the chest of the Son puffed up proudly, glancing at Dwi who had doubted him.

The woman did not change her expression. Still smiling and obviously very professional. "Can I see the ticket?"

"Sure!"

Without hesitation, Putra handed over the ticket in his hand for inspection. There are 7 tickets checked, each ticket is for one person only. So, when confirming that the ticket and the seat number were correct, the female lead smiled, allowing the group to go inside.

Once inside, they were greeted with a long hallway with gray cement walls that were not painted. A few meters away, a man wearing a formal suit smiled welcome, asked tikte then kindly led the way. The hallway they entered was only 2 meters wide, plain unadorned with slightly dim yellowish-colored energy-saving lights.

The group walked for a few minutes, down the steps leading to the underground. Nanda, Putra and Dwi who could not keep quiet, occasionally asked the officer. Has this auction house been around for a long time? What things are usually auctioned? When there is a riot, how? Is it guaranteed that the auctioned item is genuine?

Some stupid questions and conversations are thrown around, just to kill time and distract. But when they reached the end of the stairs, everyone's eyes were blinded by a large and wide field. The court is about the size of a basketball court, but the viewing area is very large with chairs as crimped as stairs surrounding the area and some special glass-lined cribs.

The attendant who escorted them smiled, giving a little time to get used to the scenery in this place before finally dropping off all the guests to each box. They have 2 different rooms. Ganesha, Nanda and the Son were one room, but the Son was clearly unwilling to part from the King's entourage. So, he willingly went to the next box and left the lovers alone enjoying some alone time together.

Inside the box, the walls were made of dark colored glass. The people outside could not see inside, but the person inside the box could see outside. Moreover, the room given is not too big or small. The size is only about 2 or 3 meters, with a set of sofas and tables. There is a TV on the table, featuring several moving slides along with photos of items to be auctioned off.

Nanda happily walked into the box, exploring the new area with brown eyes filled with curiosity. He sat down on a long, soft sofa, looked up at the glass room, looked up at the table where there was a live TV, and looked up at the living AC.

"Truly rich," murmured Nanda. He looked at Ganesha who was approaching, and found the servant who had taken him away. Close the box door and give privacy to both guests. "Darling, what do you think they're using to get electricity?"

The masked man was sitting right next to his wife. Hearing Nanda's question, he fell silent.

"There are more than 50 boxes, if all the rooms have AC, TV and even every place is provided lights, where do you think their power source comes from?"

Nanda smiled and Ganesha remained silent. No one spoke in the box as soon as Nanda's question fell. However, he remembered about Base 1 AD. In the house Wijaya even only has lights that will only be turned on at night, but this place is clearly not a problem about the cost of electricity. They have their own energy source, just like a company or a hotel is built.

The new auction will start at 17:00, now the time listed on the TV screen is still at 16:03. An hour of waiting is not a short time. Staying in a small box was not something Nanda could withstand. Fortunately, the auction committee also noticed that some of the guests who arrived were bound to arrive early. They also provide separate sales, can buy food and drinks according to the menu-oh, whatever it is, they really do not waste the profits that can be obtained.

"There's a flower tofu?" Nanda exclaimed, disbelieving the menu that was in his hands. Some snacks and staple food are listed. It is like a regular menu listed on a restaurant, but with exorbitant payments. Unfortunately, before coming, Nanda had already eaten, so he had no intention of glancing over the staple food and jumping into some desserts and snacks.

But he did not expect to find the menu Kembang Tofu. Oh, how long hasn't he been eating soft tofu with that ginger gravy? Nanda swallowed the forced saliva. Without hesitation call a waiter and order a serving of tofu. Although the price is expensive, but Nanda does not lack Nucleus at all right?

"Like the flowers tofu?" Ganesha asked, looking at Nanda's radiant face and clearly excited by the manu she had just ordered.

"Like!" Without hesitation the woman replied. A five-finger smile, his face reddened, impatient to devour the tofu flower that had long never been tucked away. "It feels good, it's suitable when it's hot when it's added with ice, if it's not ice, it's also suitable for cold days."

Ginger that becomes a sauce enough to warm the body, its sweet spicy taste is neutralized with soft white tofu that tends to have no taste. In the past, Nanda often bought it when the seller's cart passed the house. But unfortunately, since college and married to Ganesha, he so rarely enjoyed it.

"Darling, I tried to make it, but failed," Nanda giggled, sat down on the sofa beside Ganesha and stared at the masked zombie. "Because I know it failed, I gave it to you and you ate it!"

Nanda laughed when she remembered. He used to want to eat tofu so much, so he tried to make it himself. Unfortunately, his first attempt failed. Nanda had no intention of eating any unpleasant dishes, so casually gave it to Ganesha. Saying that it is homemade and special for the future beloved husband. Who knew that Ganesha would willingly spend a failed meal? The man developed diarrhea and went back and forth in the WC to make him absent for a day in class.

Unknowingly, after reciting their past, Nanda began to tell various kinds of things. From their first date Nanda proudly drains Ganesha's pouch to buy a few pounds of beans, until the first time to Ganesha's house and was mistaken for a new maid by Mama Ganesha because just when Nanda came, that day also a new maid came.

Nanda did not stop telling stories and Ganesha listened well. Until the waiter comes and brings the order, Nanda can just shut up and enjoy the flowers tofu with pleasure. Oh, the portion given is not much, but it tastes good enough for Nanda to feel satisfied. Although the price is expensive, at least Nanda is enough to fill his longing.

An hour passed in the box.

In the middle of the field, a man with brown hair and brown eyes stood there. His tall body and handsome face became his own attraction when he smiled with hospitality. Especially with semi-formal clothes worn-Kaos covered in black suits, giving a charming impression.

The handsome man who became the MC was holding the Mic, his face highlighted by the camera - making him look more clearly on the large screen attached in the middle of the field. There are 4 screens, each standing facing each other so that guests who want to auction can see well. However, for the people in the 1st and 2nd grade, they fit into the box. Enjoy the atmosphere behind the TV screen that broadcasts live events.

"Welcome to the Green Base Auction, it's really nice that we can meet again at this auction. Oh, but of course, as always, the items we auctioned off will definitely satisfy all of you," the MC opened his voice, his tone was witty, his voice was melodious and sounded delightful, makes Nanda secretly remembered with some MC and VJ that he used to watch on TV.

"Well, you rich people, can't wait to waste your money. Immediately, I will introduce the first item, "the MC smiled, then a man came out, pushing an iron bar with a goat. The goat was almost as big as a horse, with a sturdy and ferocious circular horn. Anger was clearly emitted by him, the black-and-white woolly sheep would crash its horns into the iron bars and show excessive aggression. But no matter how strong the bars shook because of his attack, the cage that locked him still firmly held the existence of the goat.

"Yes, today we found a goat," the MC smiled, glanced at the goat and stared at the audience. "One thing you need to know, this goat we've checked and it's a mutated goat! He was only one and a half years old with the male sex, the meat produced would of course be very energetic-oh, alright. I'll start to open the price. The starting price starts from 15 level 2 nuclei, for the next bid to be raised by 1 level 2 nucleus!"

The MC opened the price and people started to bid. Quickly, the price, which was originally only 15 level 2 nuclei, soared to 2 level 3 nuclei and was still rising. Oh, considering mutated animals are so hard to come by, this price is arguably balanced. Although the taste is not very good and can make diarrhea for the unfamiliar, but researchers have announced that mutated animal meat can be eaten and tends to increase energy and strengthen the body.

Nanda blinked, watching the auction show on the TV screen seriously, he occasionally commented. The competition for mutant meat was fierce, but obviously some people in the box were not interested in competing. In the end, the goat sold for 10 level 3 nuclei.

Then one by one, the MC began to show off other items in front of the audience and one of them was Nanda's coffee. Oh, Nanda never stopped grinning when it turned out that his coffee was selling quite expensive.7 nucleus level 4 and 3 nucleus level 2, it was a very high price. But unfortunately, Nanda's grin did not last long. When the MCs pulled out a grate back, the woman's smile stiffened.

Inside the cold and open cage, a naked human figure was chained inside.
