The sound insulation in the concert hall is good, but you can still hear the symphony playing in the background.
The doctor and Xia De, who officially mixed in here, pretended to be music lovers who came to visit famous musicians, so there was no need to worry about being exposed for the time being.
The two went all the way to the second floor through the small stairs on the east side of the concert hall. Although the doctor could roughly perceive the location of the demon he marked, but because the other party already knew that he was being tracked, the doctor's perception could not be too accurate. The demon can only be confirmed to be in one of the six rooms. The six rooms face each other two by two, and you can see them when you turn around the corridor. There are people coming and going in the corridor, or they are holding performance costumes, or loudly reminding the musicians who are going to play to pack up their makeup as soon as possible.
In addition to the orchestra members and the concert hall scheduler, there are also people who come to visit the musicians backstage, like Shad and the doctor. Even if it is not easy to be allowed into the backstage, Tobesk has no shortage of people of status.
This caused the six rooms chosen by the doctor to look very lively.
Although there are many people, this is also in the doctor's plan. He threw a straw figure made of hay to Xia De, winked at Xia De, and then walked to the three rooms on the left, while Xia De looked at the three rooms on the right.
They first need to confirm the location of the demon, and it is much more convenient to act separately than to act together.
There are three rooms on the right, the first one is the public dressing room. After Xia De turned in, he saw rows of dressing tables close together. The musicians who were in a hurry to get on stage adjusted their makeup in front of the mirror.
The reporter was in a corner talking with a few girls who had just stepped off the stage, and the servants in the backstage hurriedly pushed small trolleys to deliver musical instruments. Well-known conductors and musicians of course have their own dressing rooms, where musicians are part of that underappreciated collective.
There is a strong smell of cosmetics in the air, and the density of gas lamps on the indoor walls exceeds the normal lighting needs. People who put on makeup need sufficient light. When Shad entered the room, no one paid much attention to him, because everyone had their own business to do. This room was extraordinarily large, and it even reminded Xia De of a square.
The doctor can rely on induction to find the devil, but Shade can only rely on the hay straw man. Holding the straw man in his pocket in his left hand, he planned to walk around the huge public dressing room, trying to reach everyone.
He walked from east to west, and just after turning the first two rows, he saw a familiar person putting on makeup.
Iluna sat obediently in front of the mirror of the dressing table, with her hands on her knees, watching the middle-aged woman behind her in the mirror arranging her hair, and looking at the face that the woman in a corseted black suit gave her. Dust with powder.
There is another sorceress standing beside the dressing table. If Xia De remembers correctly, this is Miss Green, the high-ring sorceress of the Church of the Sun, who is laughing and joking about Iluna's expression at this time:
"You are already seventeen years old this year, haven't you ever put on serious makeup?"
"Of course I did...but this is the first time I've done makeup like this."
Iruna replied, and out of the corner of her eye she caught a glimpse of Shad looking at her in the mirror. The mask given by Dr. Schneider had already changed Xia De's face, but Iluna still relied on instinct and intuition, and immediately realized who the stranger was.
She couldn't be sure until she saw Shad in the mirror raise her right hand. He first drew the holy emblem of the Sun God on his chest, hesitated for a moment, and then raised his hand to his ear as if to scratch his head, but in fact he raised his forearm, palm forward, fingers bent inward, and made a " Cat waving" action.
Drawing the holy emblem represented recognition of Iluna, and the ridiculous action afterwards represented Shad's own identity. Iluna understood Xia De's meaning very smoothly, held back her smile, and said to Miss Green beside her:
"Although I can go on stage, will I really not interfere with other people's performances?"
"It doesn't matter, as long as you don't blow on the silver flute, you can do what others do."
Miss Green said, so Xia De knew that Iluna was going to go on stage.
"Will the bard really show up? We have so many people preparing for it, if he doesn't show up, it will be a waste of work tonight."
Iruna asked again.
"At least it's not just us, but other people think he's going to show up."
Miss Green said again, and at the same time Shad saw in the mirror that Iluna's hand on the dressing table made the number "four".
"The fourth piece of pyroxene? A keeper of bard status? In addition to the church, the professors sent by the academy are also for this?"
Xia De suddenly understood what Iluna meant, shook his head at her in the mirror, and then continued to move forward. What he meant was that he wasn't here tonight for "The Bard." Iluna, who was sitting in front of the dressing table, also understood what Xia De meant, and wondered why he came here.
In the bustling public dressing room, there were no traces of demons. Instead, Xia De found many ring magicians from the church. They pretended to be various identities, and Iluna was not the only one who was forced to perform on stage, but she seemed to be the only one who really didn't understand music.
It seems that the church thinks that the "bard" is more likely to appear on the stage during the performance, and Xia De can only wish Iluna not to make a fool of herself on stage.
Xia De, who walked around the public dressing room, felt that his body was stained with the smell of a lot of powder. He reminded himself to change the clothes before going home, otherwise Miss Writer would be unhappy. Then go into the second room on the right side of the corridor, which is the musicians' common room.
Generally speaking, the dressing room of the concert hall is actually a lounge, but the Royal Festival Concert Hall has a special meaning in the eyes of the royal family, so the interior decoration and functional area division are also different from the normal situation.
Of course, the lounge is not quiet at all. Now is the performance period, both on and off stage are quite nervous. Most of the musicians who have finished their makeup are waiting to go on stage here, and most of the guests who come to visit the musicians gather here. There are even young people with flowers in their hands, giving gifts to their female friends to congratulate the performance, everything looks normal.
There are also ring warlocks from the Orthodox Church in this lounge, but there are very few of them and most of them are low rings. Xia De still turned around in it, thinking that nothing would happen, but unexpectedly, when he approached the man standing at the window watching the night, the straw man in his pocket trembled three times.
"found it!"
"Sir, what time is it?"
Xia De stopped in his tracks, took out his pocket watch and took a look:
"It's already half past eight in the evening, why, sir, is it time for your performance?"
"Yes, I am the violinist of "White Bird Sonata - Suite No. 1" at 8:46."
He said to Xia De with a smile, and then asked:
"So, sir, what are you here for?"
It is easy to tell from the clothes that the people who appear in this lounge have different identities.
"Come and visit that Miss Lisa."
Shad said that he had read the program list provided by the doctor. Although the focus was on remembering the time, he also remembered the name:
"That's an excellent cellist."
"Yes, excellent."
The devil nodded in agreement:
"Her cello skills have almost reached their peak at her age."
Because his image is an old gentleman with gray hair, it is not awkward to say such words:
"But I can see that Miss Lisa is not satisfied with her current state, she has a desire to go further."
"But she is already the best cellist in Tobesk. I heard that even Queen Diana praised her."
"Yes, but people always have desires."
The devil said with a smile, Xia De nodded, he guessed that Dr. Schneider's disguise was too clever, so that the devil didn't see who he was at all, and instead fell in love with him.
And the following words also prove Shade's point of view:
"Sir, I see that you also have extraordinary desires."
"Yeah?"
Xia De was a little surprised and pressed his chest.
The lighting in the room is so bright that the near view is reflected in the window glass. The profiles of Xia De and the devil were reflected on the glass, and the two smiling faces almost merged with the night.
"Everyone has desires, wanting to earn gold pounds, wanting to be famous, wanting titles, wanting beautiful girls, it's normal."
Xia De said that he is not in a hurry at this moment, the doctor will come after checking the three rooms on the right~www.mtlnovel.com~ He can hold the devil here and wait for the doctor:
"Don't you have desires?"
Shad asked back.
"Of course I have desires too, but I can see that you are different."
The demon with the appearance of an old musician whispered softly. If it was an ordinary person, it would have already begun to be affected by its words:
"Such a pure desire is really rare. Tell me, young man, what do you want?"
"I want . . . gold pounds."
Amid "her" chuckle, Xia De gave an honest answer. He already has a five-figure savings, and his desire for money is actually very strong at present. Compared with the expenses of a ring warlock, ten thousand pounds is actually not much. He has been thinking about how to make money recently. Although if he really needed money urgently, neither Miss Galina nor Rezia would be stingy in lending a helping hand to him, but outsiders didn't like to ask ladies for money.
"this is very simple."
The devil stretched out his hand behind him, and although there was nothing behind him, he took out a "Victor Box" out of thin air:
"This is for you, you can use this to copy infinite money."
