Chapter 582: Theater Opening

"It is indeed the theater opposite." Diamond 10 nodded slightly,

"In order to ensure the safety of the base, we have done background checks on the surrounding shops. The theater used to be prosperous, but later the owner fell seriously ill and the theater gradually declined. Now there is only a seriously ill old lady and a child living in it. It has been closed for a long time."

"The theater has reopened. It seems that the old lady's illness has recovered?"

"It doesn't matter."

Heart 9 took the invitation letter handed by Jian Changsheng, glanced at it casually, and threw it aside, "No one here listens to the opera, and now is not the time for leisure..."

"You are right. We have been delayed by [Floating Life Painting] for too long. After several months, we still haven't found the location of the Red Dust Base." Diamond 10 frowned gradually.

"Although time is tight, we still have to be careful." Plum Blossom J, who had been standing in the corner, said calmly, "We have just gotten rid of suspicion, so it is not appropriate to take action immediately. It is best to contact the outside world as naturally as possible to understand the situation. After all, we have been closed here for too long, and we know nothing about what is happening outside."

"...Yes, Red Heart Q is still in a coma, and we still need to go out and find a reliable doctor."

Jian Changsheng pondered for a moment, picked up the invitation letter thrown aside by Red Heart 9, and said tentatively:

"If you contact the outside world...how about the theater?"

Everyone looked at the invitation letter again, thinking.

"...The theater has a large flow of people, and it is mixed with good and bad people. It is really good for inquiring about intelligence."

"The most important thing is that the theater took the initiative to send us an invitation letter. We are just invited. Even if there are plainclothes among the casino staff, it will not arouse suspicion..."

After careful consideration by everyone, the value of this invitation letter has gradually increased. At present, it seems that this is indeed the best stepping stone for them to move forward.

"That's it, Cube 10 will continue to stay at the base, and the three of us will go to Jinghong Building to take a look, and then proceed to the next step." Meihua J quickly finalized the strategy.

"Okay!"

...

Evening.

After several months, the three figures finally stepped out of the casino gate.

Jian Changsheng, wearing a black leather jacket, stood on the side of the road, watching the pedestrians and vehicles passing by on the street, and a long-lost breath of life came to his face... He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled as if relieved.

He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to learn from the talented ancients, sighing about the difficulties he had been imprisoned for the past few months and the joy of regaining his freedom, but after holding it in for more than ten seconds, he still said:

"Fuck, I'm finally back!"

"..." Meihua J couldn't help rolling his eyes.

Jian Changsheng was also a little embarrassed. After coughing twice, he changed the subject. "By the way, when you came out just now, did you notice anything unusual?"

"No." Red Heart 9 stretched lazily. "No one paid attention to us at all, and we didn't notice any other types of prying. It seems that there are no plainclothes police officers among the employees inside the casino."

"That's good."

Jian Changsheng glanced at the invitation letter in his hand and walked straight to the other side of the road. The three of them had just walked a few dozen meters when they saw a group of figures crowded on the side of the road, all craning their necks to look in one direction. The queue even extended to the entrance of the casino.

"Wow." Jian Changsheng couldn't help but ask, "What are they doing? The queue is longer than my lifeline."

"Isn't the theater in front? They should be waiting in line to watch the opera."

"So many people???"

"You have been in the Red Dust Realm for so long, do you still find it strange?" Red Heart 9 shrugged, "People here are crazy about chasing stars... I guess the theater opened today and invited some famous actors."

"But we have an invitation letter in our hands, so it seems that we don't have to queue up. Let's go and take a look first."

The three continued to move forward. There were queues all the way. The enthusiastic Red Dust residents, 70% of whom were women, gathered together and chattered as if describing something, with excitement in their eyes. To the surprise of the three, there were many old men and women sitting in the queue with small stools, wearing slippers, waving cattail fans, grinning and laughing, it was so lively.

This line had everyone from ten to ninety years old, men, women, young and old.

"Oh my god, what kind of actor is this?" Jian Changsheng rubbed his eyes and said in disbelief, "This audience is too wide, right?! Old men and old ladies are also fans of stars?"

"Just go in and take a look, and you'll know."

As they spoke, the three of them had already arrived at the entrance of the theater.

Compared with the endless queues outside, the entrance of this theater looked particularly shabby, and it was hard to believe that such a place could attract so many people. The only thing that had a bit of style on the entire entrance was the plaque that read "Jinghong Tower".

At this moment, at the entrance of the theater, a formally dressed teenager was sweating profusely to maintain order.

"Don't squeeze in the back! Come one by one!"

"Sorry, our seats are full today. I'll give you a new number. Can you come back tomorrow?"

"Grandma, please put away the benches. The people behind can't move..."

"Oh, you two are from the Rouge Shop next door, right? Come in, please come in, your seat is in the third row..."

"..."

The boy saw three people coming together and asked:

"Who are you three..."

"Oh, we are from the casino, this is our invitation."

As Jian Changsheng handed over the invitation letter, Kong Baosheng glanced at it and made a respectful gesture of invitation, "Okay, three of you, your place is in the first row."

"first row?"

Jian Changsheng was stunned for a moment, and then he entered the theater under the leadership of Kong Baosheng. After passing through the old hall covered with red carpet, he came to the stage.

The decoration of this theater building is very unique. The top of the stage is actually hollow. The gentle breeze blows into the first floor from the gaps on both sides of the roof, which makes people very comfortable... And in front of the stage, there are already more than a dozen rows of seats. At a rough glance, it can seat about eighty or ninety people, and the distance between each other is just right, so that it does not waste space and does not make people feel crowded.

The seats of Jian Changsheng and the three of them were not only in the first row, but also in the middle. After the three of them took their seats, the eyes of the audience who had waited in line all day to get the seats in the back row were full of envy.

Feeling the fiery gaze coming from the back of his head, Jian Changsheng's expression was a little strange.

"What's going on...aren't we here to listen to the show for free? Why is the location so far forward?"

The 9 of Hearts crossed his legs and said casually, "Whatever, we're not really here to listen to the show anyway... It doesn't matter where we sit."

"That's true."

Although Jian Changsheng felt that something was not right, he still tried his best to ignore the fiery gaze behind him. After all, they came here to inquire about news, so they still had to keep an eye on all directions and an ear on all directions.

At this moment, Jian Changsheng's eyes fell on the door of the theater, and a burly figure walked slowly in front of the young man.

Seeing this figure, Kong Baosheng was suddenly startled:

"Director Wang? Why are you here??"
