Chapter: 3997

It's just that he still has a pacemaker implanted in his body, so when he reached the entrance to the banquet hall, he had to go through a special security check lane where medical personnel from the ultrasound department would be present to inspect the pacemaker and confirm there were no other issues before allowing him to pass.

The time was already 6:30.

The hotel broadcast announcement went out: "Please all participants attending the auction, put on your uniform attire, leave your rooms in an orderly manner, and head to the banquet hall. Please avoid stopping, laughing, or making noise along the way."

In his room, Fei Jianzhong heard the announcement and had already lost the earlier frustration and annoyance, instead looking at Yuan Zixu sitting opposite him with a smile: "Yuan Shifu, you and I have been waiting like prisoners for two days. We've finally reached this moment!"

Across from Yuan Zixu, who was also wearing uniform attire without codes, looked at Fei Jianzhong and nodded with a smile, saying blandly: "Fei Laoshi, I wish you the best of luck tonight!"

After hearing this, Fei Jianzhong smiled confidently and bowed: "I'll borrow Mr. Yuan's good wishes for tonight!"

He then stood up from the sofa, supported by it, and had Yuan Zixu rush to his side to assist him as they left the hotel room together.

As they exited the room, the surrounding rooms also began to have people leaving.

Among these people, there were those from both Eastern and Western regions, making it quite hard to distinguish their facial features. Old Master Fei assumed he would run into a few acquaintances, but instead, almost everyone on this floor was a stranger.

People continued to arrive at the elevator hall one by one, only to see two security guards standing at the entrance, their faces expressionless. They directly opened their mouths and said, "The elevator is out of order. Everyone please use the stairs."

Although the hotel had eight elevators, it required everyone to take the stairs down. This made everyone somewhat discontent.

Some people wanted to protest, but as soon as they opened their mouths, the security guards scolded them: "Please follow the rules! Protesters will be given a warning once, and we'll remember your registration number. If you're warned twice, you'll lose your participation rights for this event."

The moment everyone heard these words, they immediately shut their mouths.

Although these people were high-ranking aristocrats in everyday life, with global influence and power, when they came here, they were no different from common criminals.

To put it another way, Ye Cheng summoned them to learn how to be filial sons.

In this place, they were at the lowest social status, not even a security guard could speak to them casually.

Although there were eight elevators here, they were not allowed to use any of them.

Because of this, they could all maintain a single path, step by step, and head to the banquet hall in an orderly manner.

This way, these wealthy people would be able to experience the feeling of being searched and frisked like prisoners.

At this moment, the entrance of the banquet hall has already been set up like airport security checks, with four inspection channels.

Each inspection channel is equipped with metal detectors and multiple inspectors.

There's a special inspection channel that also has multiple doctors and medical monitoring equipment.

In addition, there are many security personnel wearing camouflage uniforms, standing tall and proud on either side of the entrance, their faces exuding intimidation.

These wealthy people saw this scene and each felt an extremely strong sense of oppression.

However, they couldn't figure out where this feeling of oppression was coming from - whether it was from these uniformed inspection devices, or these stern-faced security personnel, or the overall atmosphere that gave them a comprehensive sensory experience. JrNovels.com
