Don't confiscate my citizenship
Chapter 884: Lanqi's Sacrifice
The voices and music on the stage intertwined and echoed in the concert hall of the Ikrit Opera House.
The actors wore costumes and showed off their singing and performance talents.
"Birds announce the arrival of spring."
"I fell into love just like that."
"You took my heart away."
"Even so, I still want to continue to protect my pure garden until the end of my life."
The heroine conquered the audience with her beautiful voice and delicate and moving performance.
After her song monologue, her dialogue with the male protagonist also reached a climax. The audience was completely intoxicated by this wonderful music and gave warm applause from time to time.
In the orchestra pit, the orchestra worked closely with the actors on the stage to give the whole opera a sometimes passionate and sometimes soft and lyrical movement.
"..."
Sigrid looked back at Antanas and Sinora.
She could capture and distinguish the clear voices and heard Antanas and Sinora chatting before.
Everyone felt that Hugh was possessed by Tata today.
But no matter how Sigrid looked at it, she felt that the girl who played the half-witch was Hyperion, and it was unlikely that Talia used disguise magic to disguise her.
Sigrid looked at the reactions of the audience in the opera house.
It seemed that the audience who had heard of the reputation of the Cinderella chapter were very interested in this kind of travelogue-like happy opera performance that was being performed at the moment.
Although the half-witch looked a little more unruly and cheerful than expected, she could sing, she could show off, she could be inclusive, and she was tough but gentle.
It can be seen that the half-witch was performing wholeheartedly and just wanted to perform this scene well.
The only problem was that the male and female protagonists at this moment seemed to have no idea what the other would say or do next, which gave the opera a sense of happy comedians.
Or it could be said that the two of them really seemed to have no script or lines, completely recreating the two demon nobles who met for the first time in the holy war era, and it was difficult to match the pace.
They stumbled and supported each other from time to time, which caused unexpected laughter and laughter in the audience.
"..."
Sigrid thought for a while.
"Excuse me."
Sigrid left her seat slightly, and when she passed by Talia's seat, she bent down and grabbed Talia and sniffed her.
"Are you Lanfu?"
Sigrid asked the gray-haired and golden-eyed beauty in front of her in surprise.
There is no smell of mother.
This is indeed not Talia.
"Yes."
The gray-haired and golden-eyed beauty nodded obediently.
Since she was discovered by Sigrid, there was no need for her to hide.
Anyway, she was dressed as Talia here at Talia's request.
"Oh my god, Lanqi has now discovered that the person opposite is Tata."
Sigrid looked at the stage.
She probably guessed why Tata dressed as Hugh Bao.
Combined with Hugh's physical condition last month, it must be that the demon factor of the scorpion demon lineage of Lord of Blasphemy Merogas began to affect Hyperion, and Tata had to save the situation at this time.
When Lanqi first played against the half-witch, his intuition might tell him that the half-witch in front of him was Tata.
But Lanqi's reason would continue to prove to him that the girl in front of him was Hugh in both magic and breath.
At this point, even if Lanqi's brain process has been occupied by "timely rescue" and "improvisation", he should have guessed it-
This half-witch is actually the product of the fusion of Tata and Hugh!
"Wait, if she is both Tata and Hugh, wouldn't that be double the happiness."
Sigrid frowned and thought, she discovered something amazing.
She had been troubled about how to hug Lanxuta, and now it seems that she has found a way.
She shook her head quickly, it was not the time to think about these things.
Sigrid was not worried about anything else. She was worried that Lanqi was now overwhelmed. After a morning of overclocking, he would have to overclock again for an afternoon.
But she could not help Lanqi now.
Sigrid could only sit back and pray that Lanqi could use his super brain to overcome this last difficulty.
After more than an hour of performance, the stage had already reached the final act.
The scene changed with the operation of the curtain, machinery and projection.
The musicians held their breath and stared at the stage intently.
The bow danced on the strings, the flute melody was graceful, the harp strings tinkled, and the notes hovered over the hall, interweaving the melody of the final chapter.
The stage lights gradually lit up, first soft light yellow, and then bright spotlights.
The huge background projected the rolling peaks of the Ente Mountains in the Demon Realm, and the sparkling lake at the foot of the mountain reflected the color of dusk.
This is a dreamy and profound dusk wonderland.
As the music played, the heroine slowly stepped into the Pure Land.
The half-witch was wearing a pure white dress, and her bright and beautiful face was filled with the comfort after playing for many days.
"It seems that our journey is about to end."
She hummed a tune, and her ethereal and pure voice was as pleasant as the sound of nature, telling the love in her heart.
"I'm back here again, the place where you and I spent time together in your memory... My memory always seems to have a blank. There should be someone by my side, but no matter how I recall, I am alone."
The male protagonist, the Governor of the Demon Tribe, also appeared, with a melancholy look on his face.
After he and the half-witch lady walked such a journey again, his eyes seemed to be doting, but he couldn't hide the fatigue in his eyes.
Even though he still couldn't remember the half-witch, he and the half-witch became trustworthy friends during the fight.
"But why don't we go find Archduke Hoster?"
The half-witch looked at the temple at dusk on the mountain.
She estimated in her mind that this was probably where the two-hour show would end.
The two of them just seemed to be in an attitude of giving up, wandering to this dusk church.
In the original work, this scene should not exist.
"No need, this is the end of our journey."
Lan Qi was already used to it when he heard the half-witch's random lines.
This isn't Hyperion, it's just a mixture of Thalia and Hyperion.
"So listen to me..."
Lan Qi roughly figured out what emergency happened that turned Hyperion into Talia.
But he couldn't blame Talia, because Talia came to help them save the day. The only thing she didn't know was the change in the script. If the script hadn't been changed drastically, then her performance would be perfectly fine.
"We don't have much time, so just listen to me from now on, okay?"
Lan Qi also simply threw away the script.
Now only he can make this scene a masterpiece.
"Eh?"
Thalia looked at Lanqi in surprise.
Not only had she never seen the scenes of the Ent Mountains and the Dusk Church in the book, but she had also never seen the Governor speak such lines in the original book.
"Isn't our purpose on this journey to find the murderer who cursed you and solve the mystery?"
Thalia could only follow the contents of the teleprompter, fill in as much as possible, and try to ask him.
"No."
Lan Qi shook his head.
"But……"
The half-witch still wants to play tricks on her.
"I'm sure time is running out. Is it okay to listen to me?"
Lan Qi approached forcefully, lowered his head and said to her.
The excessive closeness of her cheeks and eyes made Thalia retreat subconsciously, leaning against the pillars of the temple.
"You you..."
Thalia's cheeks turned red. She remembered that there should be no kissing scene, but if Lan Qi wanted to kiss her...
Wait, this is the body fused with Xiubao.
Thalia wonders whatever she thinks.
If Lan Qi kissed her in this state, was Lan Qi kissing Xiubao or kissing her?
"I just obey you."
Thalia didn't have time to think, so she could only say weakly, turning her cheek to the side, not daring to look directly into Lan Qi's eyes.
"I am convinced that Archduke Hoster is not the mastermind behind the curse on us. Do you know why?"
Lan Qi asked her without moving any closer.
"……Why?"
Thalia looked at Lanqi, her eyes full of confusion.
This sentence shouldn’t exist either.
But she was stunned when she looked directly at Lan Qi's serious eyes that seemed to penetrate her soul.
It was a look that believed in her, and at the same time hoped that she would cooperate with him, just like every time the two of them shared life and death, he would always entrust his life to her.
Only then did Talia begin to feel a little flustered.
Lan Qi was so determined that it made her a little self-doubt.
Could it be that she had been using the wrong lines before, and Lan Qi was helping her get it right the whole time?
"Why, tell me quickly."
Thalia also no longer relies on the teleprompter.
Each of her next lines will be coordinated with Lan Qi's.
Even though she has lost her confidence now, with Lan Qi around, she trusts Lan Qi to guide her soul.
The audience off the stage has already been immersed in the performance.
They were not only curious about what the suspense was about to be revealed, but also felt excited because the two of them were finally in love.
The half-witch had been tough with her words for a long time, but now she finally softened her words.
The Governor also seemed ready to face his own feelings.
"How is this feeling of trusting each other's souls performed?"
"It doesn't look like an act. It's like they have really lived and died together many times. Even if they are on and off the show, reincarnated in another life, and have no memory, they can still resonate with each other."
"With this atmosphere and foreshadowing, it has to be a happy ending, right? It's unlikely that it will suddenly turn tragic, right? I'm a little afraid, because some details in the previous plot suggest something is wrong."
"No, no, no, don't talk nonsense."
There were frequent whispers and whispers in the audience.
The governor and the half-witch were like a journey together. Even if it failed to awaken Feng Chen's memory, it also opened up the barriers in the soul.
"Let me just say this is a comedy. This can't be a tragic ending!"
Ifatiya said to the black-haired aristocratic woman next to her with a smile on her face.
When she first entered the opera house, she heard Mignel say that today's ending would be a tragedy. She was still worried for a long time, fearing that eating sweets would end up with a knife.
As a result, I am almost watching the last scene, and I am still so happy.
"It's so beautiful."
Mignel also smiled with a girlish smile,
"Am I really mistaken?"
But now she turned her mind away from the stage, thought about it carefully, and began to doubt her previous judgment.
If this is really a comedy that everyone is happy with, then why does the promotional video have to be shot in a sad and happy style and end in tragedy?
The purpose of the promotional video should be to predict in advance, so that the audience can be mentally prepared and better integrated into the atmosphere of the opera. It can match the audience's expectations and emotions with the actual performance. It is essentially a kind of foreshadowing and preparation.
"You must have misunderstood."
Epatia said to Miniel confidently.
Today this is definitely a comedy.
She also patted Abigail beside her.
"Abigail, you say so."
Epatia asked Abigail, feeling that it was hard to find a true friend.
"I...don't know either."
Abigail spat out such words.
She told the truth.
She really didn't know what the two people on the stage would do in the next second.
Being able to persist until now is purely due to her deep trust in Lan Qi after experiencing a series of disasters.
"..."
Mignel looked at Abigail next to Ifatia, took Ifatia's hand and told her not to disturb Director Abigail anymore.
Ifatiya didn't realize how serious the problem was at all.
But Mignel can roughly analyze it.
It seemed like a real stage accident.
"You noticed it too?"
Sigrid observed Miniel's expression and asked her.
More and more relatives and friends around him are gradually noticing Ni Duan's tendency. Even the cat boss feels that the matter is not simple and sits upright in Bianca's arms.
But obviously apart from Pranay who has escaped and the cat boss who is starting to get scared, the two people who can see the most clearly now are the two appreciators of the promotional video who have their own opinions.
If it ended with comedy like this today, it might be a good work, but it would definitely not meet Abigail's expectations.
Full comedy would make all other publicity and preparation redundant.
It cannot withstand the review and scrutiny of industry insiders.
After these last two shows, industry insiders will surely discover the paradox.
But it has already turned out like this, and it cannot be forced to turn into a tragic ending. A hard landing will only lead to the direct failure of today's performance.
The biggest problem is that Sigrid can see that many of the foreshadowings may be foreshadowing that the half-witch is a ghost. The ending of the last scene must also be designed to reveal this secret. The version arranged by Ranchi and Huberly It should be a tragedy.
Therefore, on the basis that the stage and script have defined the tragic ending, and under the exaggeration of this dusk palace, the forced implementation of comedy may also fail.
No matter whether you choose comedy or tragedy, it seems that there is no ending. The loopholes will only become more and more. It is doomed from the beginning of the show.
"Did Lan Qi swear a poisonous oath to the goddess of fate? He went to jail twice for acting in a row."
Mignel asked Sigrid.
The stage becomes increasingly unpredictable, and the final act is clearly the final moment.
And the moment of the end is getting closer and closer, and it will take a few minutes to make a desperate comeback.
The audience seats, which surround the stage in a horseshoe shape and spread out, can enjoy the wonderful performances on the stage no matter how far away they are. The dedicated performances of the actors on the stage, the smart dance beauty, and the shocking music make every audience at the scene fascinated. Immerse yourself in the historical world of the Northern Continent during the Holy War created by the opera.
Although no audience has discovered that the hero and heroine really did not act according to the script, for Lan Qi, at the next divergent intersection, whether he chooses comedy or tragedy, it is a dead end!
"He really did it..."
Sigrid recalled that at the end of the attack on Blood Moon City, Lan Qi seemed to have said that she would never impersonate the name of the Goddess of Destiny again.
As a result, he turned around and turned Loren into Luo Tianyi.
"Good guy, does he really want to pay off his debt?"
Miñel looked at the performance on the stage and it was still going on. Lan Qi was still trying his best and showed no intention of giving up.
Teacher Lan, can this be saved?
Mignel felt that Lan Qi's ability to rescue him in the first place was already legendary.
Now that Lan Qi's career is over, the last side mission is even more hellish than the main line of his career.
Stage in church at dusk.
No matter how the seasons change, it is always warm and pleasant in the old temple on this cliff and sea of flowers. The afterglow of the setting sun shines through the stone pillars, and the breeze lifts fresh air and pale flower petals.
The heroes and heroines of the opera are on the grass outside the church.
“I think I’ve probably figured it out along the way.”
The Demon Governor sat lazily on the ground with a faint smile on his face.
"What do you understand?"
Seeing the Governor's tired look, the half-witch also sat down on her knees, looked into his eyes and asked him.
She was very noisy along the way. But now, she seemed very quiet.
"I want to lie to myself, I don't want to wake up."
The demon governor raised his hand to caress the half-witch's cheek, but stopped when he was about to touch her.
There was no trace of reluctance or loss in his emerald green pupils, there was only tenderness and a little bit of relief when he was about to give in to her.
He knew and understood without saying anything or asking, and every moment seemed like forever.
No one knew whether he was ready to admit that he liked the half-witch, or whether he was feeling sad.
The melody played on the piano on the stage is melodious and gentle, and the notes flow through the heart like a stream, smoothing out the joys and sorrows of the times in the opera. The left hand is sometimes steady and powerful, sometimes as soft as a catkin, as if to imply the unpredictability of fate.
"..."
The half-witch still couldn't figure out what he meant.
But she knew that she could just show her natural doubts at this moment.
As long as she conforms to Lan Qi's imagination of her and makes a reaction that Lan Qi can predict, then the performance of the two of them will be successful, because Lan Qi has just told her that everything can be successful if left to him to guide.
"Do you miss those times when we drifted off to sleep, missing each other?"
The demon governor became more and more sleepy, and the smile that sometimes slightly closed his eyelids and the corners of his mouth remained unchanged.
he asked the half-witch.
"..."
The half-witch didn't answer.
Since it didn't match her original lines, Lan Qi's intention was obviously that she didn't need to respond, she just needed to feel his feelings and return his loving eyes.
Perhaps what Lan Qi expected was that she would be silent at this moment like a non-existent phantom.
The lines in her teleprompter should have been almost finished by now, but since she stopped reading the script, she just watched the words float away in her field of vision, turning a deaf ear.
After a while, maybe it's time for her to exit, and the drama will finally come to an end.
Even so, she believed in Lan Qi.
"We are sure we will find our place among the stars."
The demon governor's eyes gradually became hazy,
"If we chase the past, we can only indulge in fantasy."
As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to be unable to resist the pull of the god of sleep.
"But while I'm still awake, I'm going to enjoy every minute of it."
Lan Qi caressed his chest with one hand, and slowly reached towards the half-witch's cheek with the other hand, but it seemed that he could never reach her side.
The melody in the orchestra pit began to be rapid and intense, wave after wave, seeming to tell the characters' inner emotions and unspeakable nostalgia.
"Before dusk falls and the light separates you and me."
"Before tonight is over."
"Before the memories start to fade."
The demon governor's words to the half-witch are like praying to the gods in the temple.
"I just want to keep these nights forever, like lucid dreams."
Tick tock, the gears in the church bell tower turn.
The bell of dusk is about to ring.
The moment the dusk bell rang, the half-witch still sat quietly beside him, but she no longer spoke, as if she had turned into a statue.
"No matter what the truth is, I have already been fascinated by you."
His eyes, as soft as spring lakes, admitted his love for the half-witch.
The bright eyes of the half-witch figure reflected in him finally dimmed at this moment, dissipating like a phantom, and the light in the eyes was no longer visible.
When the melancholy seems overwhelming, the music slowly calms down.
The melody becomes soothing and gentle, like a ray of sunshine penetrating the gloom and illuminating the soul.
The farewell melody faintly emerges, intertwined with the main melody, symbolizing the arrival of hope and salvation in the world.
The swinging and changeable notes are like a candlelight in the darkness, reflecting the glimmer of light in the heart.
The Governor was speechless at this point.
Those words just now were his last words.
The Governor drooped his eyes, finally unable to resist the sleepiness.
He was nostalgic for the warm sunshine of spring, which fell on him just like her lively company, making him forget the sorrow of the past.
Just like that, he lay on the ground and fell into a dreamlike sleep.
And even in the end, the half-witch just sat beside him, guarding him like a wife.
The song ends with a quiet and ethereal ending, with a long aftertaste.
The distant melody seems to be whispering and praying, but also seems to be gazing and meditating. The answer to suspicion may never be found, but the power of love will eventually awaken everything.
The last note sounded and disappeared silently, leaving a feeling that echoes in my heart for a long time.
At this point, the show finally came to an end.
Outside the stage screen, under the starry sky-like theater dome.
"..."
Abigail looked at the curtain, and her face reflected the bright and dark light and shadow of the stage.
The heartbeat of the demon governor and the voice of the half-witch lady echoed in the space through the panoramic sound system.
Suddenly, the light in the theater woke her up and brought her back to reality.
At this moment, gorgeous lights are falling like stars, illuminating the entire music hall and decorating it into a dreamy universe.
Looking at the empty performance hall of the giant opera house, Abigail leaned back in her chair, relaxed and looked up at the sky, thinking about this ending originally created by Lanci.
This abrupt ending, the cryptic confession, and the silent companionship leave an open ending more than a comedy.
This is the safest ending plan, and it also brings the situation into perspective.
But judging from the current situation, today's performance was a complete failure.
Because the mystery was not solved, the audience did not know in the end why the Governor could not remember the half-witch. It was like watching an incomplete suspense drama that covered all the puzzles and lacked the most crucial twist. .
Even though the audience may have a good impression of it as a comedy, it does not have the effect she originally planned, and it is completely different from the theme that the promotional music wants to express.
When critics watch today's public screening broadcast, they will find the conflict between the performance and the promotional film, as well as the contradictions of its extreme failure.
"Headache."
Abigail covered her forehead.
If there was no flaw in the promotional video, the ending with Ranchi and Tata's passionate performance is actually very artistic, with a sense of companionship as they quietly listen to each other's voices.
I don’t know why Lan Qi was so involved in the performance at the end. It once gave Abigail the illusion that Lan Qi had a back-up plan. It also made Abigail not understand that he asked the half-witch to "sober up" at the end. What is the meaning of the lines on the theme "Dream"?
Now I can only change the script for tomorrow's second performance into the same comedy as today.
etc.
"It seems like there is no need to change it."
Abigail's eyes widened.
She understood what Lan Qi meant.
if--
Call Ranchi and Tata's performance today version A.
Tomorrow, Sunday's audience will watch another version performed by Ranchi and Hyperion. The version that reveals that the half-witch is a ghost is called version B.
The audience will then find that if the story of the first day and the story of the second day are combined, it means that everything in the first version performed today is just a sweet dream from the governor's perspective.
The second version, which will be staged tomorrow, is the truth that will be revealed at dusk - the half-witch has become a ghost, and the Governor needs to wake up.
Putting the stories of version A and version B together, everything is different.
Tomorrow, the original version, which will be officially starred by Hu Bao, will become a masterpiece that truly shocks the hearts of the audience with the contrast of joy and sorrow, under the guidance of Lan Qi.
Applause rang out in the performance hall.
The vast majority of the audience did not realize what was hidden in the next day's performance and were already satisfied with today's performance.
The performances of both the male protagonist and the female protagonist are quite personal and can make the audience laugh from the performance level.
When the hero and heroine finally got married and revealed their feelings under the temple at dusk, and the noisy journey ended with quiet listening, and the love was completed happily, the entire audience was moved and applauded.
The lights gradually turned on, illuminating the troupe on stage as they were taking their final call.
The long-lasting applause sounded like thunder, and most of the actors' eyes flashed with emotion.
Once again they acted out a completely different play than they had rehearsed.
I kind of understand why Mao Xianren quit the group to dance hip-hop after his last performance.
Front row of the auditorium.
"Lan Qi, I'm really lucky to have you..."
Abigail leaned back in her chair with lingering fear.
She covered her face and cried.
"Abigail, what's wrong with you?"
Bianca put down the little black cat in her arms and patted Abigail on the shoulder with concern.
She just felt that Abigail was too excited at the moment.
It's like passing through the catastrophe of life and death.
"Can this also save meow?"
The cat boss was lying on Bianca's lap, already dumbfounded.
It feels like Lan Qi has already worn everything.
He tried so hard.
on stage.
"Lan Qi, fortunately I have you."
Thalia secretly held Lan Qi's little finger and whispered to him happily.
"Thanks to you too."
Lanci looked at Thalia and smiled tiredly.
Thalia also came to the rescue today, and successfully overcoming the difficulties was not due to his own efforts.
They have always been the most incompatible partners.
But at the last moment, they must be the most tacit partners, able to complement each other.
"Then this is all over, right?"
Thalia asked Ranchi.
Tomorrow, Xiubao and Lan Qi will be able to perform all the content they rehearsed, instead of the improvised opera that he and Lan Qi just rushed to put on the shelves today.
Her work has come to an end, and next time she can sit in the audience and enjoy it.
Likewise, Talia could tell that Ranchi had reached his limit, that he might be really tired and fall asleep when he lay down.
"yes."
Lan Qi nodded happily.
His real vacation was coming too.
His journey, his mission, his work, everything came to a successful conclusion immediately.
The applause continued one after another in the opera hall, and some audience members stood up from their seats, shouted praises to the actors who took their final call on the stage, and paid their highest respect.
People gathered in small groups throughout the auditorium, enthusiastically discussing the uniqueness of the male and female protagonists and their natural singing voices, marveling at the ingenuity of the stage settings and lighting, and savoring the profound meaning behind the ups and downs of the plot.
Audiences from different places expressed their feelings and exchanged their experiences of appreciating opera.
Some citizens of Ikerita were recalling the most impressive passages and arias as soon as the curtain ended, with intoxicated and satisfied smiles on their faces. Others could not wait to share this wonderful experience and told their relatives and friends about their views. After experiencing it, invite them to come and enjoy it together next time.
The entire hall of the Icerite Opera House was immersed in the afterglow of opera.
People in the audience either stood up and prepared to leave, or were still applauding and marveling in the aftermath.
After the curtain call, the actors were still on stage greeting the audience, and the musicians were still arranging the music scores and instruments.
In a festive atmosphere.
No one noticed the VIP seats in the front row.
A figure with gray hair and golden eyes had a smile on his lips.
An insignificant little insect rested on her fingertips.
【Friendship Long Live Bug】
[Category: Alchemy Beast]
[Grade: blue precious]
[Level: 1]
[Effect: Can learn to hear the target's voice, and then speak according to the summoner's thoughts. 】
[Note: You can’t speak, let me speak for you]
She propped up her cheek with one hand, her eyes full of teasing, and she had already let more bugs land on the shoulders of the media reporters she had already identified.
Back in the Devil's Examination Hall, Lan Qi used the friendship bug to drive a wedge between the two examiners, making them confide in each other.
This simple alchemy beast that Lan Qi could make in the early days is even easier for her to make, because its function is only to secretly send messages, and it is the weakest alchemy beast.
She will definitely not destroy Xiubao and Tata's opera.
But she knew what Lan Qi was doing today.
At this moment, these friendship bugs have floated to the side of the media reporters, conveying a message that is enough to drive the media crazy-
[Emperor Cremona is suspected to be dating multiple women in the box upstairs. 】
"Lanqi, do you know what real despair is? Just like I couldn't escape that day, I couldn't die, and I could only be spanked."
When he was only one step away from success, or when he thought he had succeeded, it was undoubtedly the time when he was most relaxed.
Do you really think I will let you go?
Lan Fu's mouth twitched slightly and she sneered.
Just teasing you.
"Struggle for me, my master."
While the audience was still immersed in the aftertaste of the opera, the reporters who were still filming the troupe's curtain call and preparing to interview the director and the leading actor slowly stopped their actions.
Then.
They looked at each other and other media colleagues in the distance.
The reactions of their colleagues also made them more convinced.
An incredible news swept through the theater.
The source of the news was unknown, and no one knew who was telling them, but it spread throughout the audience seats of the performance hall in a blink of an eye.
"Loren is also in the opera house today?"
"It is said that he is in the VIP box?"
The audience gradually heard this incredible rumor in the midst of the hustle and bustle, and the atmosphere in the theater immediately became subtle.
Everyone stretched their necks and searched with their eyes, wanting to see the face of the legendary Emperor Cremon.
"He is even dating multiple women?"
"Hey, I seem to have really seen the God of War! The God of War is here, which means that Loren is likely to be there too."
"I said that he went back to the Kingdom of Hutton this time to bring his concubine back to the Cremon Empire!"
Whispers in groups of three or two came one after another, all asking about Loren's gossip in Ikerite.
Although they doubted the authenticity of the information, it seemed that many reporters were more interested in Loren, who might be hiding in the opera house.
Not only the media people, but even the ordinary people gradually shifted their interest from the stage to the possible big news.
"Is this a date? Is this a gossip? What's wrong with the Holy Emperor marrying a few concubines? This is serious international news!"
Luvihill, a reporter from Ikrit Academy, was even more excited. He stood up from his seat and argued with the audience in the back row.
"..."
On the stage, Lanqi, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, keenly noticed the unusual commotion in the audience.
At first he thought it was the fire safety issue that attracted the attention of the audience, but he soon realized that things were not so simple.
The whispering in the audience and the inquiring eyes of the reporters all indicated that something unusual was happening.
When he closed his eyes and listened to the specific voices of people in the noise, the corners of his calm eyes began to tremble.
"Loren?"
For a moment, he felt confused and panicked.
It's impossible.
How could the news of Loren in the opera house be known to the reporters?
Logically speaking, only a few people knew that Loren was in the opera house today...
Lanqi racked his brains to try to figure out what happened, until he met the charming smile of the gray-haired, golden-eyed woman in the audience in the distance.
That was a look that wanted to eat him alive.
She also did not hide the fact that "it was her who did it".
"Lanfu..."
If the Great Love Poet was with Talia all day today.
Then she should know Loren's whereabouts.
But why did the Great Love Poet...
Aren't they best friends? They should always be.
"Lanqi, what's wrong with you?"
Talia called Lanqi worriedly, she felt that Lanqi was particularly helpless now.
"Tata..."
Just when Lanqi was surprised, he saw Talia beside him, and slowly remembered the stormy night in the Cremorne Empire.
He used Lanfu as a tool to protect Talia and used the trick of "King and Rook Castling".
Perhaps it was at that time that Lanfu suffered indelible psychological pain.
"So everything is wrong and there is a debtor?"
Lan Qi's eyes, which were originally puzzled, gradually became relieved at this moment, and slowly lowered his eyebrows.
There must be a cause for every effect.
If you commit too many sins, there will be punishment.
Today he is paying back Loren's debt.
But in fact, he still owes the great poet a debt.
All the inhuman things he did before, the things he did when he didn't realize it, may all be paid back.
This is why Xu Bao always reminds him to pay attention to merit.
If the media's attention is all shifted from the drama to the emperor, things will be tricky.
He knows very well that once the emperor's whereabouts are exposed, it will definitely trigger an unprecedented media storm.
Loren can't leave smoothly with the three women, he will be troubled by the scandal again.
After experiencing the scandal of Professor Landry in the Cremorne Empire, Lan Qi also understood how troubled Loren was in Ikrit Academy.
Thinking of this, Lan Qi made up his mind to help Loren get out of it.
The only way is to attract all the media's attention back.
That must be a bigger news.
The reaction of the media and the audience was faster than Lanqi expected. At this moment, the audience was in chaos. People's eyes wandered back and forth between the stage and the audience, searching for the figure of the heavyweight target.
The backstage staff were busy adjusting the lighting and sound, and called on the audience to wait to leave in an orderly manner. Coordinators came into the performance hall from outside to provide support, but there was no time to stop these chaotic rumors.
There is not much time left for him.
Lan Qi took a deep breath.
If Loren can be saved, then so be it.
He strode off the stage with a clear purpose and headed towards the VIP seats in the front row of the audience.
Lan Qi struggled in his heart and looked at a figure in the front row of the audience.
"Eh?"
Ifatiya looked at Lan Qi walking straight towards him in surprise, not knowing what he was going to do.
Why did brother come down from the stage to look for her at this time?
Before anyone could react, Lan Qi had already arrived in front of a woman, knelt down on one knee, and looked into her eyes affectionately and intently.
"Madam, would you like to have dinner with me tonight."
Lan Qi knelt down elegantly in front of Miniel, took her white hand, and asked her.
Mignel was struck by lightning.
The noisy main performance hall suddenly became quiet, and many spectators looked at what was happening in the direction of the stage.
What followed was an explosive uproar, and many people were stunned for a while.
No one expected that the leading actor of this opera would do such a thing at the critical moment.
"Holy shit, this is a married woman, right? She seems to have a ring on her finger."
"So it turns out that the leading actor is interested in her?"
"But she is so beautiful. Which noble lady is she from?"
The reporters immediately exploded. Photographic equipment, such as long guns and short cannons, were all aimed at the two people. The shutter sound came one after another, for fear of missing any exciting moment.
Immediately afterwards, cheers and whistles resounded throughout the theater like a roaring tsunami.
The audience was whispering excitedly, and everyone's face was filled with the joy of gossip.
Some people began to shout "yes" to him, while others speculated whether this was a carefully planned invitation.
The sound of piano playing also sounded in the performance hall, as if trying to match the atmosphere of the surprise confession.
Togliado played a cheerful tune that seemed to say "Today you will marry me."
This caused the atmosphere in the performance hall to explode instantly.
After such a large-scale performance, an open invitation from the venue is considered high-profile under any circumstances.
An invitation made on Valentine's Day is something else.
Such a public and high-profile display of love is not an exaggeration to call it a marriage proposal.
The black-haired aristocratic woman in the center of the whirlpool opened her eyes wide in surprise, and even her friends around her were dumbfounded.
"This, this..."
The dark-haired aristocratic woman's eyes dodge.
She was so panicked that she wanted to pull her hand back.
But then I thought about it - why did Lanqi come to her instead of Hyperion or Thalia or Sigrid.
Lan Qi has obviously figured out her secret, and choosing her, an impossible person, is undoubtedly the best and most topical option.
And there must be a reason why Lan Qi would do this. It was obviously to help draw Loren's attention away.
All of them originally owed Loren.
This time.
It is reasonable to repay Loren's debt.
After some mental struggle.
"I, I promise."
Miniel lowered his head and gritted his teeth and said these words.
It was as if he was being coerced and had to obey Lan Qi's request and let him do whatever he wanted tonight.
When she glanced guiltily at Epatiya beside her.
When he found Ifatiya, his jaw almost dropped.
"Wow."
Ifatiya's eyes were quickly filled with mist.
She couldn't believe that one day her brother would come and steal her Minel. She didn't want such a thing.
