Chapter 330 The Secret of the Troupe
"I just, just hope, to have her..."
The elegant but sad singing voice fell in the Dovina Grand Theater of the Shinra Empire. The young man, who was obviously young but made up with mature makeup, fell in the background. As the stage darkened and the scene changed, the figure also disappeared.
On the stage, the male and female protagonists were still performing new performances, but behind the stage, Feng Xue was surrounded by her friends.
"Well done, he is worthy of being called Blood Diamond. He is obviously just a midfield villain, but his aura is not inferior to that of the Siren!"
With a kind face, the group leader encouraged the fourteen-year-old boy who was wearing boots with heightening inside and roots on the outside. He was dressed like a middle-aged man in his thirties. However, the boy shook his head gently and said:
"No, no, it's still far away! It's just that Mr. Siren is not in good condition today!"
"The siren will be angry if you let him hear this! Forget it, you're tired of wearing this outfit, so go change it quickly! But with your current level, it's a bit humiliating for you to be a super substitute, but you Your body shape and age are also issues...it looks like I have to tailor a new drama for you..."
Captain Green's expression was slightly strange, but he immediately knocked on his forehead where his hairline had moved, as if he was worrying about his new script.
However, the words of the group leader made other friends in the backstage look envious. Fortunately, they knew that this was the backcourt, so no one made too much noise. They were not jealous, not to mention the person in front of them. That skill is already more than two ranks higher. Since he joined the group eight years ago, he has spent all his time on studying besides sleeping, eating and washing. This is the perseverance that everyone can only look up to.
As the person involved, Feng Xue maintained a calm attitude. As the group leader said, although his outfit barely allowed him to go on stage, it was really uncomfortable to wear. He took off his boots, which weighed at least five or six pounds. After taking off the shoulder pads, wig, pants and puppet arms that blurred the waist position, Feng Xue, whose height suddenly dropped, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
…
More than half an hour later, the show came to an end. Siren, who still looked no different from when he joined the group, came out of the dressing room and met Feng Xue, who seemed to have been waiting here for a long time. Although he was a little curious as to why this kid didn't join the other group. The child went to sort out the props together, but considering that he is now more or less a "corner", it was not a surprise. He just smiled and said:
"Not bad, I was almost defeated by you today!"
After hearing Mr. Siren's words, Feng Xue showed a puzzled expression. She seemed to hesitate for a moment before suddenly speaking:
"Mr. Shadow, why are you pretending to be Mr. Siren? Where is Mr. Siren?"
"What are you talking about?" Siren frowned, but Feng Xue said:
"I felt something was wrong when I came on stage today. Not to mention that it is obviously better for you to play my two roles. Even if this is the leader's intention to give me a chance to appear, there are still a few roles that should be played by you and Mr. Siren. The opposite actors, Mo Jiao and the dancer sister, appeared in men's clothing. I originally thought it was Mr. Shadow who was not feeling well today, but I just realized that it was Mr. Siren who was not there!"
When Feng Xue said this, Siren's expression suddenly became a little sinister, and his tone became ferocious——
"Not bad, kid! But aren't you too careless for you to come to me alone to ask such a question?"
The atmosphere dropped to freezing point for a moment, but the next moment, a figure suddenly appeared in the corridor of the locker room where there were supposed to be only two people:
"Okay, don't scare him. I told you before that this kid has very strong observation skills!"
"Hey, hey, this is different from what was promised! Could it be you who told this kid?" The original gloomy face of "Siren" changed again, but the dancer frowned and said:
"You think I broke the rules?"
"No, no, it's just a joke! A joke!" Shadow quickly waved his hands and admitted defeat, and with the sound of footsteps, the figure of the leader appeared in the field of vision:
"This is not the place to talk about these things, let's talk about it when we go home!"
"Yes!"×3
…
A moment later, in the puppet workshop, the team leader sat in front of Feng Xue and looked at Feng Xue with a subtle expression. This observation lasted for several minutes before the team leader finally said:
"When did you discover it?"
"last year."
"Tell the truth, if you want the truth from me..."
The leader's tone remained unchanged, Feng Xue hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Four years ago."
"Four years ago? Are you kidding me?" The leader's face showed an expression of disbelief. "You were only ten years old at that time! I remember you..."
The leader's words suddenly got stuck at this point, because he suddenly remembered that this kid had mastered four languages in the second year after joining the troupe. He had exhausted all his puppet skills at the age of eight. When he was nine years old, the music used in the troupe's rehearsals was... From the conductor's recording to his personal performance, at the age of ten he was able to upgrade the entire troupe's puppets and was responsible for controlling one-third of the troupe's performance puppets. Think about it this way, this kid is ten Sui sees the problem and it seems that there is no problem?
"Then why didn't you say it at that time?" The group leader sorted out his thoughts, but Feng Xue said matter-of-factly:
"Mr. Shadow replaced Mr. Wu Xing at that time. Later, Mr. Wu Xing's legs and feet were not very sharp. I thought he was injured and that's why Mr. Shadow was needed to replace him..."
"Ah..." The leader then remembered that Wu Xing seemed to have encountered a tough problem back then...
"Did you see it from here?" The leader nodded secretly in his heart, and then said again:
"Then why did you say it again today?"
"Because I think there is a shortage of manpower! Several senior brothers and sisters are not good enough. Today you also said that my quality is enough..."
"Ah?" The leader didn't expect this boy's thoughts to be so simple, but from his expression, he couldn't see any flaws (stage acting skills require exaggeration and expressiveness, which is a different type from a magician's acting skills), In the end, I could only laugh to myself for thinking too much, but I still opened a hidden compartment under the workbench, revealing the safe inside.
At this moment, Feng Xue could feel that the temperament of the entire "world" seemed to have changed, and it seemed that some kind of rules were being touched.
Feng Xue had already guessed that the troupe base was the ideal country where the leader would develop normally. Feng Xue did not show any special attitude towards this. He just looked at the leader quietly and took out a statue holding a wine glass from the safe. A solid gold statue holding a book in one hand, draped in robes, and wearing a mask on its face.
"According to the rules, when someone in the troupe can detect the existence of the 'secret', they are qualified to become a core member. I will tell you the secret of the Green Troupe now, and you only have one chance to choose. After listening to all After keeping the secret, if you choose to give up, I will erase this part of the memory about the secret..."
The leader's tone was very serious, but Feng Xue was filled with doubts at this time——
"The one you carved on the statue shouldn't be called Hastur, right?"
