After the opening of the third act, Miss Louisa reminded Xia De to pay attention to listening and watching, and he must not be distracted. And when the scene returned to the fairy tale Princess Tavier came out to sing, she even patted Shad to remind him that it had already started.
The "Kiss of the Tree" in the opera has made some changes on the basis of the old story in order to cater to the plot development of the play. The most prominent aspect is to arrange some plots similar to love for Princess Tavel and the ancient tree in the forest.
The tree itself is personified in the opera, appearing as an elf in a green suit, and has a long duet with the Princess Tavier.
After this episode started, Miss Louisa didn't say anything to Xia De, and only asked his opinion softly after it was over.
Xia De said the words he had prepared:
"The singing is good, but if you look at the story itself, none of the versions you've shown me have described their relationship as love so blatantly. It's certainly for a contemporary audience, and The stories quoted here are not for children. But if you think more deeply, you can explore the core of the ancient relationship between Princess Tavier and the story, and use love, friendship, and a spirit that transcends the two If you connect and think about it, you may be able to interpret it from different angles.”
After Xia De finished speaking, Miss Louisa looked at him with strange eyes in the dark:
"Is there something wrong with what I said?"
He asked in a low voice, embarrassed, and the blonde girl shook her head:
"No problem, I just didn't expect you to be able to think so deeply. Xia De, you are really talented."
But Xia De knew that he just did too many reading comprehension questions.
Miss Louisa invited Xia De to watch the opera. Apart from "Kiss of the Tree", she also came here to pick up the goods. After the third act, Goldilocks got up and left.
Although she thought that there would be no accidents, she still told Xia De that the place where she traded with the cargo owner was at the entrance of the public bathroom on the second floor. If she didn't come back within half an hour, then Xia De could go find her.
"Is the owner someone you know?"
Miss Louisa's long dress is highly recognizable, so the other party should be a familiar person.
"Not very familiar, he is a correspondence ring warlock from the Higher Medical College of Serkses in Tobesk. The three thaumaturgy colleges are very close, so if necessary and they trust each other, it's okay to know each other's identities."
Miss Louisa explained softly, then bent down and passed in front of Xia De.
Xia De thought about the current time, reminded himself to be more alert, and then continued to sit there and watch the opera.
"Do you find opera interesting?"
asked in my heart.
【very funny. 】
So Xia De's eyes did not look in other directions, but focused on the stage so that "she" would not miss any details.
Twelfth minutes after Miss Louisa left, there was commotion at the entrance to the northwest of the auditorium on the first floor. Because the lights were not turned on, and the northwest entrance was directly below Shad's position, he didn't know what was going on.
Afterwards, the sound of footsteps came from the entrance of the auditorium on the second floor. Although those footsteps were kept down as much as possible, they still caused a small commotion in the auditorium.
Xia De looked back, not much to see in the darkness. You can only see a group of people pouring in from the rear entrance, and then question everyone in turn.
They were very fast, and while suppressing the commotion of the audience, they had already reached the front row in five minutes. After getting closer, Xia De saw that it was a police officer in uniform, but the clothes were the uniforms of Ridwich Field. It is hard to say whether it was a member of the church or MI6.
He first asked about Xia De's identity, and then pointed to the empty seat beside him. Xia De shook his head, reached into his arms, and under the watchful eyes of the other party, he took out the ID of MI6:
"My own people."
He whispered, handing over the documents. After the middle-aged police officer received it in surprise, he looked through it under the light in front of the stage, and immediately said:
"Sir!"
He even wanted to salute, but Shad stopped him.
"Shh~ Keep your voice down."
Xia De took the document, but did not let him go, lowered his voice and asked:
"My girlfriend went to the bathroom, no matter who you turn to, it's impossible to find her. What's the matter this time?"
"The superior asked us to arrest someone. I'm sorry, sir. I can't tell you who it is, but it is related to the poisoning case last week."
Xia De nodded knowingly. After Thursday night a week ago, the church made up its mind to eradicate the cultists who dared to summon the evil **** twice in the material world. The cultists are doing things locally, so there must be supporters and sponsors within the aristocratic group in Tobesk, so in recent weeks, the police from Ridwich Field and MI6 agents suddenly broke into a certain building Buildings taking people away happened all over the city.
The church would rather catch mistakes than let them go. Don't look at the seemingly peaceful Orthodox Church in this era, but institutions like the Inquisition are not imagined by ordinary people. The Church of the Five Gods was able to live in harmony with the human secular kingship in the material world, and it did not rely on gentle missionary methods.
The policemen came and went quickly, and did not disturb people's interest in watching the theater. Xia De calculated the time. Twenty-eight minutes after Miss Louisa left, he also left his seat, bent over to the aisle between the seats, and then hurried to the exit of the auditorium on the second floor.
The Queen Mary Opera House occupies an area that can even be compared with the Saint Teresa Square. There are several public washrooms on the first floor, and when Shade found the blonde girl who hadn't returned home, she was at the door of the washroom in the corner of this floor, talking in a low voice to a man also wearing a black formal suit.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, both of them stopped talking. When Miss Louisa saw that Xia De was coming, she reached out and covered her forehead:
"Oh, I actually forgot the time. The police came too fast just now, and we each went to the bathroom for a while, which delayed some time. Detective, come this way."
She took the initiative to greet Xia De, and then introduced to Xia De:
"This is Mr. Harry Walker, a fourth-year student at the Serks Higher Medical School. He is an old friend of the doctor."
Standing with Miss Louisa, the middle-aged man with yellow hair wearing a black silk hat and a monocle immediately handed out his business card to Shade. Mr. Walker runs a local winery, which is considered a small business~www.mtlnovel .com ~ Walker, this is our team, Mr. Shade Hamilton. "
Xia De also handed out his business card. It seems that the relationship between the correspondence ring warlocks of different colleges is indeed not bad.
"Hamilton? Wait, why do you look so familiar to me?"
The middle-aged man reached out to shake hands with Xia De very enthusiastically, and then showed an expression of sudden realization:
"Hamilton of Regard? Are you the knight who was conferred half a month ago?"
"it's me."
Xia De nodded modestly.
"Oh, Louisa, your team is really lucky, why don't we meet such a well-known team member? Mr. Hamilton, I have a consignment seized outside Tobesk, can you... ..”
