I'm A Quadrillionaire -
Chapter 2188
The dark surroundings made her a little nervous.
However, David did not say anything, so she could only follow in silence.
Anyway, David would be blocking her in front.
Meanwhile, Pebbles was looking around curiously as she lay in David's arms.
She was not nervous or scared at all.
After passing through seven or eight dimly lit rooms in a row, Thor stood in the middle of the last room, but with no door in front of him.
David surveyed the room and saw that it looked like a small living room.
There were tables, chairs, and several paintings on the walls.
At this time, Thor walked to one of the landscape paintings and uncovered the painting to reveal a mechanism. After that, he grabbed it and spun it a few times.
As Thor spun the mechanism, the walls began to part.
Soon, a downward passage appeared before them.
David from behind looked stunned.
'It's just a trade fair.
'Do they need to be so mysterious about it?
'Those who don't know would think there is some treasure hidden in here!'
"Master David, after you!" Thor turned around and made a gesture to David.
David walked into the passage first with Pebbles in his arms.
Beanie followed closely.
Thor went last.
Upon entering the passage, the lights came on and the walls closed.
The passage was very large, and there were stairs heading downward in front of them. Even if three people walked together, it would not feel crowded. David was about to keep going down.
However, Thor who was at the back suddenly moved forward and handed David something. He said, "Excuse me, Master David. Everyone has to wear a mask to participate in the insider's trade fairs to remair anonymous. So, you need this."
After David took it, he took a closer look and saw that it was a soft mask. So, he asked, "Mr. Rivers, it's just a trade fair. Is it necessary to make it so mysterious? Not only is it held in such a hidden location, but all participants have to remain anonymous too?"
Thor handed Beanie another mask and explained, "Master David, you have no idea what it is like! This is not an ordinary trade fair, but Sole's underground trade fair. Many of the things here are shady, stolen, or were robbed. In short, the origin of these things is unknown, and are very expensive. The participants, no matter if they are selling or buying, don't want others to know their identity. After all, they don't want to reveal their wealth! In order to protect both buyers and sellers, the organizers decided to set this rule."
David thought to himself, 'Isn't it just an illegal exchange?'
Since this industry was in a gray area, he did not ask too much.
Where there was light, there would naturally be darkness.
This was something that could not be avoided.
Not to mention The Spirit Cage where force is paramount, even on Earth, where the legal system was so perfect, there were still many people who walked on the edge of the gray zone. When the old crooks were wiped out, new ones would soon appear like weeds.
They could not be easily eliminated.
"So shall we move on now?" David asked.
"Master David, we need to put this on before we move on."
After Thor finished speaking, he put on the soft mask in his hand. His face was thus concealed.
David first helped the little girl Pebbles put it on before putting it on himself.
In reality, he felt that this thing was of little use to him.
The main reason was that the little girl was too conspicuous.
She had always been hanging from him.
After leaving, if someone ever saw him and Pebbles, they would definitely recognize him.
However, David did not care either.
So what if they recognized him?
If they were in the main city where there were unknown powerhouses, he might be a little more cautious.
However, Sole did not require this level of precaution.
After the four of them put on their masks, they continued down the stairs.
After walking about tens of meters, the stairs disappeared, revealing a long passage ahead.
After walking forward along the passage, they saw some lights a few meters ahead of them.
After walking in, a small round hall measuring tens of square meters appeared before them. Upon entering the hall, they saw that there was nothing other than connecting passages surrounding them.
