Chapter 55 Rat
"Mr. Rich, I feel like your speech is very interesting, but it doesn't sound like the dialect of any county in Mosesad. Have you been to many countries?"
Dora's eyes moved and she shook the red wine glass in her hand. The two of them had a great conversation and had been chatting for an hour. Her thoughts at this moment coincided with Lewis's.
Mr. Richie's words are interesting. He always uses humorous expressions and body movements to infect others appropriately. However, I can hardly understand at least half of what he says himself. This may be related to his experience.
Men love to brag about their vision and abilities, and Dora intentionally led the topic in this direction so that Liu Yonglu could further develop his ideas.
Liu Yonglu who was sitting opposite him was almost out of his mind. He hadn't dated his little girl for a long time. His mouth was like water released from a floodgate, and he kept talking.
"Of course. I've been to the Gentleman Country, the Lady Country, the Black Teeth Country, the White People Country, the Nie Er Country, the Qishe Country, the Two-Faced Country, the Adult Country, the Dwarf Country, the Husband Country, and the Daughter Country."
Liu Yonglu just bullied Dora because she had never heard of crosstalk. If he were in Tianjin, the little girl would have to be beaten for making her laugh.
But Dora didn't know. When she heard about so many countries, all of which she had never heard of, she became even more interested.
The technology in that world was far less developed than it is today. Newspapers would occasionally publish reports that an explorer had discovered a new continent. Liu Yonglu was joking, but Dora took it seriously.
"Then Mr. Rich, which country impressed you the most?"
"Two-faced country."
He must be able to speak the Two-Sided Country. The old gentleman didn't teach him how to speak other countries, so he doesn't know how to speak other countries.
"Then Mr. Rich, can you tell me what kind of country that is?"
"The people of Liangmian Country all wear a turban, with a kind and humble smile on their faces in front, but a vicious face hidden behind the turban.
……
This kind of person says one thing in front of others and another behind their backs, says one thing with his mouth and another in his heart, says one thing openly and another in secret.
Smiling at you on the face, kicking you on the bottom, openly a ball of fire, secretly a knife, the heart is like arsenic, the mouth is like rock sugar. "
Dora nodded frequently as she listened. Mr. Richie had so much knowledge.
Dora is listening to this beautiful song, and Millie Tangke at another table is also listening to this song...
Hiss…Who is this Ricky talking about? He is talking about me!
Mili Tang's hands were shaking as she cut the steak. She had just spent an afternoon with this person and her disguise was completely seen through? This couldn't be possible...
While cutting the veal in her hand, she frowned and wondered what Liu Yonglu meant.
It may also be that he only knew that I put the potion on him, and he didn't stop me at the time because he was not clear about my motives.
Now that you see I've followed you, you're starting to talk to me.
Or maybe it was a provocation? The battles between mystics scholars were often not open and aboveboard, with both sides using their own tactics, and the one who couldn't handle it first...
"Sir, would you like me to pour you another glass of wine?"
Millie Tang was thinking about this when the sommelier came over. He didn't really come to pour wine for Millie Tang.
Instead, this handsome young man had been cutting the beef since a while ago. He had already cut through the beef, but he was still rubbing the plate with the dinner knife, making a "crackling" noise.
Finally, the owner of the store couldn't stand it anymore and gave the sommelier a look, asking him to go and check out the customer and make sure he wasn't a psychopath.
"Oh... then have another drink, thank you."
Only then did Millie Tang realize her gaffe, and she bowed slightly and quickly apologized.
After drinking a glass of wine, she sat there thinking about how to counter Liu Yonglu's moves.
Take him directly into the dreamland to meet the worm?
No, there are conditions required to open your own dreamland, and the conditions are not met now.
Furthermore, it would be beneath one's dignity to reveal one's cards right at the start. The probing between mystics requires a certain limit. If the opponent uses forbidden spells, you must also use forbidden spells. Even if you win if you use the ancient relic first, you will lose face.
Got it, Millie Tang remembered that she had a forbidden spell called Degeneration, which could degenerate humans into animals in a short period of time, but the disadvantage was that it was uncontrollable.
After all, Camilla Tang is the descendant of a witch, and her family has long since developed a controllable degeneration technique that only lasts for an hour, and the person being cast can still maintain certain human behaviors, such as thinking and speaking, without being affected.
She took out two small bottles from her arms, one filled with mouse hair and the other with cat hair. She was going to enjoy the fun of the cat catching the mouse later.
While she was preparing, Liu Yonglu had had enough of the chatter and remembered the main text.
We have to ask about the situation in the theater quickly. Only by finding the missing Mintz can we get specific information about the Sabines Forest.
"Sister, let's stop talking about love for now and get to the point. Tell me everything about the Rosemary Theater and Medea. I want to hear if you have any doubts."
Seeing Liu Yonglu's resolute expression this time, Dora did not change the subject. She frowned slightly and said slowly:
"Medea is a very mysterious person. Although we are called the Sisters of the Lake, she became famous much earlier than me. She was already famous when I was still studying at the dance school. I remember that time...she had just moved to Saint Dodin City."
Liu Yonglu did not interrupt and listened to Dora quietly.
“Although I am her partner, I don’t know much about her, at least I don’t know her exact age.
She is an art fanatic and has an obsessive love for drama, opera, and stage plays. I rarely see her doing anything else.
By the way, she often rehearses alone at Rosemary until very late. Sometimes when I go backstage in the morning, she has already put on her makeup, or maybe... she hasn’t left all night. "
Connected, the relationship between Rosemary and Medea.
But there is one thing Liu Yonglu hasn't figured out yet, that is, if Medea really has a problem, why did it only affect Dora recently.
How could it be a coincidence that it hasn't been discovered in all these years?
"Miss Dora, you said before that the copy of Cassiluda was bought by Medea not long ago, is that right?"
"Yes, I was there too."
That's strange, she was so weird when she was young, assuming she believed in a god at that time.
Then what happened when she got the play script recently? These two things seem to be completely unrelated..."
Liu Yonglu thought of Lewis. Lewis' family had believed in Babadan for hundreds of years, but they knew nothing about other gods. The idea of grafting the frog onto the crab completely confused them.
How can a believer believe in two gods? Or... is she not an ordinary person? Liu Yonglu couldn't figure it out for a while.
"Then please excuse me and tell us about the Rosemary Theatre. Was this place normal before Medea came?"
“It’s not normal. The students and teachers at the dance school all know that strange things often happen in this opera house.
But people in the city, including the Wisdom Cult, checked it several times but found nothing. In addition, this is indeed a magnificent historical building and one of the symbols of Saint Daoding City, so no one dared to demolish it. "
"Sob, sob ...
"A child of seven or eight years old fell from a height, but where she was standing there was a guardrail more than one meter high, which was much higher than her height.
A janitor once saw a ghost with a deer head in the opera house in the middle of the night.
Oh, and there is a legend that there is a devil in Box No. 5 of the opera house, and someone who went in never came out again.”
Box No. 5! This is the right one.
Liu Yonglu thought of the Mintz files he had just seen this afternoon. He must have known about this legend before he went to investigate.
"Did this incident of a person turning upside down in Box 5 happen recently?"
"No, I heard about it from the girl I shared a dormitory with when I was in school."
"Oh……"
Liu Yonglu pondered in his mind, this strange rumor about Box No. 5 has spread so widely, it is impossible that Mintz, a veteran informant, does not know about it, so why should he go?
It could only be that there were some important clues hidden there, and the last intelligence Mintz sent to headquarters before his disappearance said that he had made key progress in investigating the Sabines Forest gathering, which meant...
There is definitely a connection between the Rosemary Opera House and the Sabines Forest!
If he had not gone to Excel Town, Liu Yonglu might have gone straight to the Coin Forest to watch the ceremony, but after the battle at Excel Chapel, he had gained some experience.
The so-called spectators can only stand at the back like ordinary believers, and may even be worse than ordinary believers.
When the mass really starts, it will be difficult for me to stop it... After all, standing around me are other believers and mystics who come to watch the ceremony, and there are also small priests standing below.
There are three layers of pot inside and three layers of pot outside. I guess I've been cut into pieces by the knife before I can even run to the front of the pot.
Therefore, before the ceremony begins, I must ruin everything for him.
While Liu Yonglu was thinking about it, his dessert came, which was cheesecake with raspberry sauce.
He took a spoonful and it tasted really good. It was not as sweet as some ordinary coffee shops make. This one had a more complex flavor.
"Try it, it tastes pretty good."
When Dora saw Liu Yonglu's enthusiasm, she was so happy that she took the plate and took a small bite.
Liu Yonglu took another sip of wine and felt his hand holding the glass itchy. He looked down and saw a bunch of soft and shiny gray mouse hair growing out of his sweat pores!
Have a nice weekend everyone. I will update two chapters today to relieve my cough. I will update three chapters tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Welcome everyone to follow and support me. Thank you very much.
