Chapter 42 Declaration of Duel (please vote for further reading!!!)
"here we go."
Ma Wei looked at the tall, thin and handsome young man walking out of the curtain and said.
"yes."
Holmes nodded, with a smile on his lips: "Here we go."
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Circus Sunshine. I am Levine Berger, the troupe leader."
The man held a carved silver classical cane and walked slowly on the stage, talking eloquently: "Today we will bring you an extremely exciting show. Please don't be stingy with your applause, especially this beautiful person sitting in the front."
Madam, you have been staring at me, and if there is nothing dirty on my face, you must be impatient."
There was light laughter from the audience.
The woman sitting at the front, holding a theater telescope with its own handle, blushed and smiled sheepishly.
"Okay, I guess you didn't buy the tickets just to listen to my nagging. The show will start soon. Now please enjoy the first show, the clown's unicycle!"
Levine Berger bowed slightly to the audience, snapped his fingers, and a burst of smoke suddenly rose from the soles of his feet. When the smoke dissipated
He disappeared!
The audience screamed, and before they could react, cheerful and frivolous music suddenly started playing. Then, a clown wearing thick foundation, a plaid jumpsuit, and a red nose rode a unicycle from behind the scenes.
Squeaking out, three small balls flew freely in his hands, drawing circles in the air, like rotating bearings.
The audience, who were shocked just now, were immediately attracted by the clown's funny performance.
Not long after, when the audience's interest in the clown's performance began to decline, a horse's neighing sounded from the background, and then a black horse rushed out of the curtain, and the rider on its back flipped and performed gymnastics, performing various thrilling movements.
There was constant uproar in the venue, and the atmosphere became heated again.
"The rider seems to be the girl selling tickets at the door." Ma Wei said to himself.
The reason why Gina wore men's underwear was probably to cover up the silver gymnastics suit underneath, and what she performed was also some kind of gymnastics moves.
I have to say that combining acrobatics with gymnastics is a great idea. The difficulty is also visibly increased. The running horse is bumpy. Gina not only has to maintain balance, but also uses the saddle as a horizontal bar to perform various
Highly difficult, dazzling flips in the air.
Her soft body seemed to be blooming like a boneless body, and her close-fitting gymnastics uniform shone under the light of the kerosene gas lamp. At this moment, Gina was the brightest star on the entire stage.
At the end of the performance, the audience burst into warm applause, and Ma Wei also gently clapped his hands and praised him.
The clown's unicycle and Gina's horse acrobatics got off to a good start. The atmosphere was completely enhanced. There was constant applause. One after another acrobats came on stage to show off their figures. Just as the leader Levine Berger said, the performance was very exciting.
.
At 8 o'clock, the music stopped, the mime took the curtain call on time, bowed and returned to the backstage, and then, a young man in a tuxedo walked out from behind the curtain.
Levine Berger.
"Next, I will perform a magic show."
Levine Berger, who was holding a carved silver classical cane, had a smile on his face. He took off the silk scarf around his neck, shook it a few times to show that it was indeed an ordinary silk scarf, and gently held it in his hand.
A shake.
A white dove suddenly appeared.
"Wow!"
Yunia leaned forward, stared with big eyes, and said in surprise: "Dad, he is so powerful, he can actually turn a silk scarf into a dove!"
"It's quite impressive." Ma Wei smiled.
After releasing the doves, Levine Berger continued his performance. He showed his empty hands to the audience, and then rubbed his fingertips together, and a playing card magically appeared. His movements became faster and faster, and he landed on the stage.
There are more and more playing cards on the table.
"I want to select a few lucky viewers to perform magic with me. If anyone is willing to take the initiative to come on stage, please raise your hand."
Swish, swish, swish!
In the audience, countless people raised their arms high, and Yunia did the same. She even stood up excitedly and stood on tiptoe, hoping to go on stage and cooperate with the performance.
Levine Berger looked around and his eyes fell on the two men in the middle who had no reaction to the performance.
He narrowed his eyes, then smiled, pointed at Ma Wei and Holmes, and said loudly: "Two gentlemen, are you willing to come on stage to cooperate with my performance?"
Ma Wei and Holmes looked at each other with extremely strange expressions.
"Please don't be restrained and come on stage boldly. Everyone, where is the applause? These two gentlemen need your encouragement!"
Bang bang bang.
"Father, what should I do?" Holmes asked calmly: "Do you want to go on stage?"
"I'm fine." Mawei said.
"I don't have any problem either."
Finally, urged by applause and under Yunia's resentful gaze, Mavie and Holmes stood up and stepped onto the stage.
"I wonder what the names of these two gentlemen are?" Levine Berger asked politely.
"Marve Enders."
"Dirock Holmes."
The audience was in an uproar, not because of how famous Ma Wei was, but because
The well-known detective, Diloch Holmes.
"You are the most famous private detective in the capital, Diloch Holmes?"
"it's me."
Hearing this, Levine Berger's eyes suddenly lit up, burning hot, as excited as a pirate who saw a treasure.
"That's great!" He shouted to the audience: "Dyloch Holmes has come to our stage. Everyone, what are you waiting for? Applause!"
Fierce applause rang out, reaching into the sky, deafening.
Everyone is curious whether Holmes can break Leven Berger's magic trick.
"What magic trick do you want us to perform with you?" Holmes asked, holding his pipe in his mouth.
"Don't worry, don't worry. Sherlock Holmes is here, so I have to show off some special skills."
Levine Berger thought for a few seconds, then snapped his fingers and had an idea: "Space shuttle!"
"Space travel?"
Hearing this unfamiliar term, Holmes frowned, not quite understanding what Levine Berger meant.
"I will explain in a moment, please wait a moment."
Levine Berger bowed slightly, turned around and walked backstage. Not long after, three huge independent wardrobes were carried onto the stage.
"There are three wardrobes A, B, and C here. After a while, please ask Mr. Ma Wei to enter wardrobe A, and I will enter wardrobe C. Wardrobe B is empty."
Levine Berger briefly explained: "When everything is ready, Mr. Holmes, you will cover the three wardrobes with black cloth by yourself, and set Wardrobe C on fire. I will escape within 1 minute and enter Wardrobe B."
"Oh" Holmes glanced at Ma Wei and asked: "If it's just a simple escape room, why do you need three wardrobes?"
"Ordinary escape rooms are too unappreciative." A flash of light flashed behind the monocle, and Levine Berger said in a calm voice: "After I escape from Wardrobe C, I will switch places with Mr. Mavey.
Let him appear in Wardrobe B, and I enter Wardrobe A, and unknowingly complete the space shuttle."
"I see, it does sound interesting."
Holmes nodded slightly: "Father, what do you think?"
"same as you."
Space travel sounds like magic, but if you think of the deeds of the Phantom Thief of Rose.
Isn’t it very similar to the method used in the burglary of the Duke of Wales’ home?
If the real identity of the leader Levine Berger is the Rose Thief, then he chose to perform the space travel magic in front of Holmes today.
It is undoubtedly a provocation, a glove thrown by the nobles, and
