A mysterious story that he suddenly knew haunted Ai Xiaohai for a whole night, and it wasn't until it was almost dawn that he slept in a daze for a while.

He was woken up by the rapid ringing of the telephone, and in a daze, he saw that it was half past seven. After receiving the phone, it was Su Zongnan calling, and he repeatedly explained on the phone that Ai Xiaohai must not be late.

I rub, the circus challenge only starts at night, what kind of phone call does not let people sleep in the middle of the day?

Anyway, those who have more experience in preparing for the work of Song Sanbao and his wife to do it, their only task is the same: sleep!

simply turned off the phone, turned over and continued to sleep. He's the kind of character who doesn't worry at all as long as the sky doesn't fall, let alone a circus show whose main purpose is commercial promotion.

I slept until the afternoon when I was awakened by a loud knock on the door, and I got up lazily and opened the door to see that the Swifts had all arrived.

"Ai Xiaohai, it's 4 o'clock in the afternoon, you're still sleeping, you call you and you turn off your phone again!" Looking at Ai Xiaohai's sleepy eyes, Xu Yunqi screamed.

"Didn't it start at 8 p.m.? What's the rush now? Ai Xiaohai yawned and washed up.

It's true that the emperor is not in a hurry to die eunuchs. Swift and the others glanced at each other, speechless.

Helpless, Yuyan could only tell him that Song Sanbao and his wife, Liu Feng, the Wei brothers and Meng Jiagui had prepared all the things that Ai Xiaohai needed, and had already transported them to the gymnasium, waiting for Ai Xiaohai to check them.

"I'm hungry." Ai Xiaohai patted his stomach, since he went home last night until now. Nothing has been eaten: "I want to eat ravioli." ”

can't laugh or cry, the circus challenge that so many people have watched has not been put on Ai Xiaohai's heart at all......

……

After a long time, it was easy to get to the gymnasium, and it was already more than 6 o'clock in the afternoon.

The opening ceremony was held in the afternoon, and as one of the main venues of the festival, the stadium was crowded with people and hawkers. Those who had dinner and had tickets in their hands were mostly coming for the well-known International Circus Challenge, which had been bombarded with advertisements for a week.

The Great European Circus, the American Circus Genius...... Xinan's city heroes take on the battle...... These are enough to attract attention.

Entered the stadium. A sea of people.

Ai Xiaohai's eyes were sharp. Suddenly, I saw a familiar figure in the crowd:

Uncle Zhao?

Zhao Wanglin, the police officer of the Huyan Naxi Police Station, Uncle Zhao?

Just as he was about to say hello, Zhao Wanglin also saw Ai Xiaohai, but he immediately shook his head quietly at Ai Xiaohai with stern eyes.

Ai Xiaohai found out that Zhao Wanglin was wearing civilian clothes. It quickly became clear that he was on official business. When it came to his mouth, he swallowed it again......

What case did Uncle Zhao come to Xinan to handle? Ai Xiaohai was stunned. As a result, if you look closely, good fellows, two of your old "friends" are also here. Captain Ding Yuan of the Criminal Investigation Team of Huyan Naxi County Bureau and Captain Jun of the Criminal Investigation Team of Harke City!

They were also dressed in civilian clothes, accompanied by several local plainclothes policemen who might have been in Xinan, pretending to be tourists and watching vigilantly everywhere. When they saw Ai Xiaohai, they all pretended not to know each other at all.

Maybe it's a big case......

Who's that? Yin Yunuo?

Yin Yunuo and two girls who were about the same age as her walked past Ai Xiaohai with a smile on the surface, but they didn't see Ai Xiaohai at all. But Ai Xiaohai's eyes were so keen, he immediately noticed that the three girls were also observing and watching nearby.

Who do they seem to be looking for?

"Ai Xiaohai, come in, there's still an hour and a half to start."

Under the urging of the swifts, Ai Xiaohai walked into the gymnasium with a stomach full of doubts......

Song Sanbao and they had been waiting for a long time, Ai Xiaohai released Xiao Qi Xiaoba, let them get familiar with the environment, checked the props, and was very satisfied. After all, it was an old circus, and they had only made one request a long time ago, and they actually helped themselves do it so quickly.

"Mr. Ai Xiaohai, it's so good to see you, I haven't been able to get through to call you, we thought you wouldn't come." Several foreigners walked over, led by Plegan and Gorle.

And behind them, as soon as they were introduced, it was Ai Xiaohai's opponents in this challenge: Riel, Diamari and Garcha.

After a few simple greetings, Riel looked at Ai Xiaohai's side: "Mr. Ai Xiaohai, where are your animals?" Did you bring these two puppies with you? ”

"Ah, yes, I brought these two puppies."

Ai Xiaohai's answer surprised several foreigners.

Dogs are the easiest animals to train, but even the smartest dogs are inferior to the huge beasts. If Ai Xiaohai really only brought two puppies, then he had no chance of winning this game.

"Hey, my friends, don't let this young man fool you." Amid the familiar laughter, Petrov appeared with his sons Gavrila and Ivanotina: "His animal taming skills are completely out of the knowledge of any of us. To describe it as great and incredible, it is an insult to him. ”

It is really unimaginable that Petrov, who has always been arrogant, actually said such things in front of so many people without hesitation.

"Look, Ai, my friend." Petrov smiled: "I have to ask you one thing, defeat them for me, so that the defeat will not be a shame for the Russian Circus." ”

There was a "boom", and a round of laughter rang out around.

The atmosphere is still relatively relaxed, firstly, because the exchanges between the major circuses are more frequent, and everyone knows each other; Second, this is not a formal international competition, in the final analysis, it is just a commercial performance.

Petrov saw Song Sanbao and his wife, and he probably heard something: "Song, I feel sorry for what happened to the Circus of Joy, and I want to have your place in my circus forever if I need to." ”

"Thank you, I have already found a job with Mr. Ai Xiaohai." Song Sanbao said with a smile.

Originally, there was a contradiction between them, but since the last time they suffered such a big setback, Petrov's arrogance has been retracted for the most part, there is a sky outside the sky, there are people outside the people, although the Russian Circus is famous, but in the ancient country of the East, there are too many magical characters and magical secrets.

Moreover, the vicious competition and exclusion between peers will be despised in this industry.

"Alright, Ai, let's get down to business." "Are you really ready to finish the challenge with just two puppies?" ”

"Ah, no." Ai Xiaohai quickly replied: "You should know that I am not a professional circus performer, I just have a love for animals, so in such a short period of time, I can't find the animals I need." Therefore, I would like your help ......"

He looked at the foreigners, and then said slowly, "I hope that after you finish your performance, I can borrow your animals to complete my performance." ”

Exclamations rang out, and the sound of "NO, NO" kept ringing.

It's not that they are stingy and refuse to borrow animals, but that the danger is too great, and that's exactly what Gavrila was worried about in the first place.

You must know that animals are trained by their owners from an early age, so they obey their masters, and the owners also know their temperament. But there is a great danger for strangers to use them to perform programs, even if they are close.

Those are lions and tigers!

A commercial performance can't kill anyone, right?

Ai Xiaohai had long expected such a reaction from them: "First, I really couldn't find the animal I needed; Second, we have clearly agreed in the contract that we will be responsible for any problems, and we have also purchased personal accident insurance by the organizing committee. Well, you can lose a lot of money, right? ”

It's not funny, it's not funny at all.

Only Ai Xiaohai smiled and said, "As for the third point, Mr. Gavrilla, I think you can explain that in fact, this is not too dangerous for me......"

The interpreter told Gavrilla his words word for word, and the European golden boy was silent for a while: "Yes, I believe that Mr. Ai Xiaohai can control your animals." His ability to communicate with animals is beyond our imagination. So, I'm sure he's not in any danger. ”

In Europe, Gavrila is notoriously untalkative and doesn't make any promises, but now, he actually vouches for Ai Xiaohai?

"If you are still worried, my Russian circus and I can also vouch for Mr. Ai Xiaohai." Petrov opened his mouth and said: "If anything goes wrong, the Russian Circus and myself will be held responsible." ”

Between European and American circuses, there are also cases of mutual emergency borrowing of animals and animal trainers, but a well-known industry insider is required to guarantee it, so that in the future, if there is a problem, the person responsible can be found in a series of follow-up issues such as compensation.

But this happens very rarely.

But now, Petrov has stepped forward and made such an important and shocking guarantee for a young man who was unknown before.

The scene was silent for a long time, and Gorle, who is the European Circus Art Committee, urgently discussed with Su Zongnan, director of the Xinan Foreign Countries Friendship Association, Xi Pengzhiqiang, vice president of the National Acrobat Association, and Lu Pingshen, director of the Circus Circus Art Committee of the Acrobatic Association, agreed to Ai Xiaohai's request, and redrafted a waiver contract, and asked Ai Xiaohai to sign it.

The few foreigners present were well aware that an unprecedented scene in the history of world circus praise was about to occur. Maybe it's a tragedy, maybe it's a miracle.

And more likely to be a tragedy, except that the Petrov family has always been full of confidence in Ai Xiaohai.

They were very convinced that this young man would be able to do miracles! (To be continued......)
