Section 345
Since it was Zhongli who told Ying, it shouldn't be a 'trap', and that's right, that idiot Funina couldn't think of any trap either.
Thinking of this, Su Chen smiled and said, "Let's go after listening to this song."
On the stage, Mr. Yun, the head of Yunhan Society, stepped onto the stage.
There was a burst of applause from the audience.
...
Fontainebleau.
When Su Chen and Ying arrived here on the patrol boat, walking along the waterway hub, they could see a series of promotional announcements about the Wanfa Festival along the way.
"I didn't expect it to be done quite well." Su Chen rubbed his chin and looked at it.
"It's not bad." Paimon curled his lips, "It wasn't lively at all along the way. Look at how lively the Human Emperor Festival was before."
"You can't say that. The nature of the festival is different, and this is Fontaine after all. We just need to hold it more often."
Paimon muttered: "How many more times do you want to do this kind of thing..."
"What?"
"No, it's nothing." Pamon pointed, "Look! There's someone there!"
Su Chen looked in the direction and saw that there was really someone there, so what?
He looked at Paimon and asked, "Is it weird to see people on the road?" Are we going to see ghosts again?
"Ah Lord Ryder is back!"
The people who were chatting suddenly looked excited when they saw Su Chen.
"Lord Ryder!"
"Lord Ryder is back!"
"Hurry up!"
Some people were shouting excitedly, some were cheering, and some were running away.
Su Chen: "..."
Ying looked at them, thought for a while, and said, "Maybe it's been too long since I've seen you, and I miss you so much."
"Listen to what you say, do you believe it?"
Ying must not believe it. After all, she knew the purpose of coming to Fontaine this time. Although she felt a little uneasy, when she thought of the rich commission fee and the fact that as a friend, it was natural for her to be busy with the other person's life events, she suddenly felt uneasy. It’s settled.
"Let's go," she said with a smile.
"Where to go?"
"opera."
"Aren't you going to Fontainebleau?"
"The Wanfa Festival must go to the opera house."
"Fine."
Continuing to take the boat from Fontainebleau to the Opera House, Su Chen could finally see some festive atmosphere.
A year has not passed, and the entire Opécle Opera House has changed a lot. The area seems to have expanded. It is said that it is predicted to be related to the sinking of the water level after the settlement. However, the extra area is not occupied, just in case. Now, It's just used as an entertainment venue.
At this moment.
The place near the seaside was crowded with people. It looked like a neighborhood, comparable in scale to the bustling market during the Liyue Sea Lantern Festival. Su Chen wondered if all the people in Fontaine had come here.
"Ah!~ Traveler, Lord Ryder."
a voice sounded.
Linny and Linnette walked out of the crowd.
"What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here." Linni smiled, "Are you also here to participate in the Wanfa Festival?"
Paimon chuckled: "Yes, yes, Linny, are you guys doing the same?"
"That's right, but we have a Wanfa Festival performance later... Do you see the stage over there?"
Following Linni's line of sight, he could see a stage set up among the crowd. People coming and going around the stage seemed to be looking forward to the upcoming performance.
After all, he is a famous magician in Fontaine, and Linni's performance is still very popular in Fontaine.
"Where's Funina?" Su Chen asked.
You didn't see that idiot in such a lively place?
Linni smiled mysteriously: "Ms. Funina has made special preparations for this year's Wanfa Festival. Master Ryder will know about it by then, and maybe he will be shocked."
"ha..."
Su Chen shrugged, what kind of storms and waves has he never seen before? Steady as an old dog is how he is now.
"I'm looking forward to it." Su Chen said politely.
After waiting for a while, the performance started.
Everyone walked to the edge of the stage, and Linny put on his performance clothes and stepped onto the stage——
"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming to watch my magic show!"
"After the secret was revealed in the last performance at the Opera House, I believe everyone already has an idea of the magic of 'exchange'. What a pity~ When the secret of the magic is revealed, the expectations will be like a roller coaster from top to bottom, but as a magic For a teacher, the greatest pleasure is to have the courage to challenge yourself, so the magic I want to perform this time is still - exchange!"
After saying that, Linnet and another assistant from the magic troupe pushed the big box onto the stage.
Linni smiled and said: "Of course, this exchange is different. There is only one box here, so where is the other box? Maybe there is not~ Because this time, I want to randomly exchange the people in the box to Go somewhere else. Speaking of which, this is not called exchange, but rather called 'teleportation'. The other end of the teleportation may be on the stage, or under the stage, at Fontainebleau, Hailu Port, or... nautical miles.”
Wow~~
There was an uproar in the crowd.
After hearing what Linni said, everyone immediately became interested.
"Teleport?"
Su Chen touched his chin. Magicians like to use exaggerated expressions. In fact, that's what's behind the magic. Of course, the essence of watching magic is to enjoy the process. If you pursue the secrets behind it too seriously, you will ruin this mood.
"Then let's get started without further ado... Well, since this is the first time I'm performing this magic, I have to choose a reliable lucky audience, so that I can feel confident, hehe~"
Linnie's eyes turned and fell on Su Chen.
"Then Lord Reid, may I have the honor to invite you to cooperate with my performance?"
All of a sudden, everyone's eyes turned to Su Chen.
"Me?" Su Chen smiled lightly, "Of course, but I hope Master Linnie won't teleport me to the sea, after all, I only brought this set of clothes when I went out."
"Haha~"*N
"Since Lord Reid said so, I have to work harder... Yeah, I promise it won't be the sea."
At Linnie's invitation, Su Chen walked onto the stage and into the big box.
There were some simple decorations inside, but they were not balloons. When the door of the cabinet was closed, it was immediately pitch black and nothing could be seen clearly.
"It should still be a secret like moving, but since they dare to perform it publicly, there must be some improvements... But this is a beach, can a passage be dug underneath?"
Su Chen felt around and found nothing. The view was too dark and the whole area was blocked. People with claustrophobia might go crazy on the spot.
After a while, a familiar countdown sound came from outside.
The sound was very clear, right outside, and it was still clearly audible until the last few seconds.
This surprised Su Chen. If it was underground teleportation, it should be very quiet. Could it be that Linny's magic has improved to this extent?
"0!"
When the countdown returned to zero, Linny's voice came from outside the box.
"Okay, Lord Reid, the performance is over, you can come out."
"?"
While Su Chen was puzzled, the door of the box was opened.
"It's over? Linny, aren't you teleporting? Then I should be... huh?"
Outside the box, it was no longer a beach or a seaside, but... the opera house!
In the theater, the audience seats were full of people at this moment.
Looking at Su Chen who was full of surprise, Lini smiled and said, "Yes, the essence of this performance is to change everything except the performer. Then, Lord Reid, this performance is over. Please enjoy your good time next."
"Uh...what do you mean?"
Snap!
The lights dimmed.
Everything around disappeared, and then the spotlight fell and shone on Su Chen.
Only then did he realize that the place he just walked out of was in the defendant's seat.
"The court is in session."
A majestic voice sounded.
On the highest judge's seat, Villette looked solemn.
And on the other side of the plaintiff's seat, a familiar figure suddenly appeared-the stupid Fernina!
"What's going on." Su Chen was a little confused.
What's going on?
"I want to accuse!" Fernina put her hands on her waist and said loudly in her usual exaggerated tone: "I accuse Reid of being unfaithful, unjust and unfaithful! I ask the court to make a judgment!"
Su Chen: "Ah?"
When was I unfaithful, unjust... unfaithful? ? ?
Navrette: "This court pronounces a verdict - Reid is guilty, and orders Reid Cross and Miss Funina to hold a wedding and become husband and wife. Execution time: immediate execution, term: life."
Su Chen: "...Ah?"
In the plaintiff's seat, Funina stretched out her hand to him and made a V-sign, smiling proudly: "Reid, from now on, we are husband and wife!"
