Crystal City—Shop
Two days passed.
The situation in Crystal City remained the same. Customers from other cities visited the appraisal shop, but they returned empty-handed because the shop was still closed.
The local forces were confused. They didn't know what had happened. But the major forces were different; they knew that the Tulip Auction House was behind this problem.
Before the Tulip Auction House could act against him, the shop owner, Frank, left the place.
The higher-ups of the major forces couldn't help but wonder whether Frank truly gave a wrong appraisal to Cedric, the Tulip Auction House employee.
They didn't know what conversation had gone down, but the activities of the shop owner, Frank, invited such criticism. However, none of them dared to spread the rumor.
They were all connected to the Silver Tower. If the Silver Tower were to find out about this matter, it would be the end for them. So, they could only discuss it among themselves.
