Chapter 314 Making Careless Friends
Chapter 314 Making Careless Friends
In fact, before Yun Qing came to Arlecino, he had already snatched away Tartaglia's Eye of God. Anyway, he didn't want to use it, so I'll keep it for myself.
The next morning, the little yellow-haired girl got up very early. Today was the day when Linny and his friends were going to perform magic, and they didn't want to be late.
Linny brought Little Yellow Hair and Paimon to the two seats in the front row. After they sat down, Linny went backstage to prepare for the performance, and other audiences also came in one after another.
"Strange, where is Yun Qing sitting?"
While waiting, Paimeng was not at all calm. He kept floating in the air and looking around, trying to find Yun Qing behind him.
Just then, Yun Qing also entered. His seat was at the back, close to the aisle, but he could still easily see Paimeng floating in the air.
Yun Qing smiled at them, and then a message was sent from the void terminal.
{Blatino Flash Fontaine: Remember, the essence of magic today is: people can dissolve in water.}
After sending this message, Yun Qing closed his eyes and waited for the magic to begin.
But before that, Yun Qing still made some small preparations. He scattered some small paper figures on the ground and used the evil eye of the wind element to blow them to every corner of the opera house.
This is his usual trick, which makes it convenient for him to return to the scene again.
But looking ahead, Paimon and Villette started chatting, which was good, as they were getting some support.
The magic show started soon. Cards and doves flew out of Linny's magic hat and colorful ribbons appeared out of thin air in his hands. However, these were just small magic tricks to liven up the audience and were not worthy of being performed on stage.
Next, the fun begins.
A suspended water tank slowly descended, and Linnet was sitting on it, waving to the audience. They were going to perform a water tank escape.
Linnet jumped into the water tank, and as she spoke, the lid closed, turning the tank into an "enclosed space".
Linnet looked very flustered, but it was actually all an act. They had rehearsed this magic trick countless times, so there was no possibility of any mistakes.
Unless the rope connecting the water tank suddenly breaks.
In full view of everyone, Linnet's body began to dissolve, turning into bubbles and disappearing into the water, leaving only her clothes.
Then, Linnet walked out from behind the stage, came under the spotlight, and saluted the audience with Linney.
At this moment, all the audience were shocked and applauded, while Paimeng and Little Yellow Hair were even more shocked, but their shock was mainly focused on Yun Qing.
Did you steal someone else's script?
Little did people know that what Yun Qing meant by dissolving in water had more than just this meaning.
Immediately afterwards, the final magic show began. Yun Qing put his hand into his coat, ready at all times.
This magic trick requires randomly selecting a "lucky" audience member. As the numbers on the number selector rotate, the seat number of the lucky audience member is revealed.
"Let me see... Oh, it's the audience member in the seventh row, seat number three. Congratulations, you can experience this magical minute in person!"
Obviously, the person sitting there was not Yun Qing, but an ordinary "Fontaine person".
How many Fontaine? If Mond succeeds in his blitzkrieg against Fontaine, then she should be considered a Fontaine.
She was invited into the magic box in the corridor, while Linnie entered the magic box on the stage. They had sixty seconds to complete the position exchange.
Yun Qing also watched every move on the stage closely, not missing any details.
At this moment, Lini pushed open the magic box on the corridor. Obviously, the magic was halfway successful. The flames used to create the atmosphere on the stage had already been sprayed out. Now all they had to do was wait for the lucky audience member to push open the magic box door on the stage and then walk out...
“Bang” “Bang” “Bang!”
Three gunshots rang out from the back of the audience seats. At the same time, the rope hanging the water tank broke, and the water tank weighing several tons fell heavily, smashing the wooden magic box into pieces.
When everyone's attention was attracted by the water tank, Linny, Navilette and the little yellow-haired boy looked back. Yun Qing only left them with his back. He had kicked the door open and ran away.
In the audience, one could vaguely see an arm pressed under the crushed magic box, and a mask floated out with the water. The owner of the mask was none other than Linney's leading actor, Cowell.
"The performance is suspended! Medical staff, follow me. The security team will protect the scene, control all performers, hunt down the fugitives, and temporarily block the entrance and exit of the opera house!"
At the critical moment, it was only Villette who had to take the lead, mainly because the water god was now frightened silly.
How could a mere 500-year-old human pretending to be a god, living a life of luxury, have ever seen such a grand scene?
Think about it, the killer sat in the audience for the entire duration of several magic shows. If the other party was coming for her, wouldn't her plan to impersonate the Water God be doomed to fail?
"Don't panic, we will soon be able to find out what happened."
That Villette turned around and said to the two yellow-haired men that the case seemed very clear. It was a long-planned murder, and the murderer escaped in public. It couldn't be clearer.
The little yellow-haired boy nodded to that Villette, then came to the aisle of the auditorium and found Linny, who still couldn't hide the shock on his face.
"It's actually him..."
Linnie never imagined that this new friend would kill someone in the street in the Oprykle Opera House, and it was during his own magic trick.
Alas, I made the wrong friends.
"Linnie, don't be too sad, that guy is a big bad guy, scold him if you want!"
Paimeng was also very angry. She didn't understand why Yun Qing seemed fine before, but what happened today to cause such a big trouble?
The few of them spoke in low voices, and Paimon just wanted to help Linnie vent his emotions.
"Alas, now that things have come to this, I can only consider myself unlucky. Traveler, Paimon, who exactly is that Mr. Yun Qing?"
Linnie let out a long sigh. He had previously thought that this famous traveler must be a man who knew how to appoint the right people and had a good eye for people, but it turned out that Yun Qing actually disrupted his performance.
"he is……"
Paimeng hesitated. On the one hand, she wanted to reveal Yun Qing's identity from the bottom of her heart, and on the other hand, she saw Yun Qing's smiling face. Yun Qing had given them a large sum of money before. If she exposed Yun Qing at this time, she could hardly imagine how Yun Qing would retaliate against her.
For example, turning her into food and sending her to Debo Hotel.
"Mr. Linney, I'm afraid you need to stay a little longer. You are a major suspect in this case."
Then Villette found Linny. At that time, the security team had already conducted an investigation and had some preliminary results.
Linny: Huh? Me?
Then, Navillatte began to introduce the case.
“The man in the magic box has unfortunately died. His name is Cowell, one of the assistant performers of Linney’s magic troupe.
“The direct cause of the tank’s fall was the fireworks on the stage that ignited the ropes, not the gunman’s bullet.
"The chosen girl seems to have disappeared from the face of the earth and her whereabouts are unknown.
"This case has many characteristics of a serial disappearance of young girls."
