Section 478 The wedding is followed by the wedding

Let Qin Lang and Elizabeth disappear in front of everyone?

Daubers immediately became vigilant: David. Kotkin, the strange magician he had never seen or heard of, offered to perform a magic trick that would make Qin Lang and Elizabeth disappear without warning—as far as he knew—they probably wanted to disappear in their dreams, to get rid of the relatives and friends he had invited—and if it wasn't a coincidence, then it was a well-prepared plan. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

A conspiracy.

If you think about it, it must be a conspiracy. Both Qin Lang and Rachel's cunning and dark-minded brains could have come up with such a plan, and both he and she had the guts to carry it out.

They must be stopped. Daubers said to himself. However, although his reaction could definitely be called swift and brilliant, it was still a little slower: before he spoke, Qin Lang had already let the situation develop according to his plan.

"A good idea." He said, turning to the guest, "What do you guys think?" ”

"Don't say yes!" Daubers shouted in his heart, but the answer of his invited guests was exactly the opposite of what he had hoped.

There was applause, and there was heckling.

"You can't do it, magician." A couple of guests, apparently in the lead, shouted, "We'll keep an eye on you." ”

Kotkin laughed. He knew what they meant: the guests, who didn't know enough about the situation, and certainly didn't have any warning, had already agreed to his performance.

Praise God, Qin Lang's promise of a thousand dollars in reward seems to be easier to earn than expected-of course, you have to work harder, the game has just begun.

"Wait and see," he teased them further, and swore inwardly, "I'll surprise you." ”

"Don't let us down, magician." They paid homage to him.

"Don't worry, ladies and gentlemen, I ......"

"Wait!" It was only by this time that Daubers came to his senses of surprise and annoyance—for the first time he felt how low the judgment of his relatives and friends was, so unaware that they were causing trouble for him—but now the most important thing was not to blame the guests for their mistakes, but above all to prevent Kotkin from performing a magic "show."

To stop him is to stop Qin Lang and Elizabeth.

Daubers turned to Cabañas - he was the key to turning the tide. "Performing a magic show in a holy and solemn church is a deeply inappropriate act and a blasphemy against the Lord. Am I right, Father. ”

Cabañas nodded. "That's true. Mr. Daubers is right when he says that performing magic in a church is a sign of a lack of reverence for my Lord. His remarks caused a sigh of disappointment among the guests, and Daubers secretly rejoiced and triumphant, but after only a few seconds his tone changed, "Of course, now we are in a special time, and in this church, we have just witnessed the sacred wedding of a young couple. Therefore, I personally believe that at this time, the merciful Lord should forgive us for our small offenses against Him. ”

There is no doubt that the merciful Lord would forgive this offense, for the greater offense, the false wedding of an atheist and a Puritan in a Catholic church, did not make him angry, and what else would he care about, then?

He means "yes".

"Hooray!" Some began to cheer, but many more quickly drew crosses on their chests and prayed to God with a serious face to thank Him for His mercy.

Then they started smiling and waiting expectantly.

"Priest!" Daubers is out of words.

"Calm down, Mr. Daubles." Cabañas pulled him aside and whispered in his ear, "Just a magic trick, what the hell are you worried about, Mr. Daubers." ”

What am I worried about? Daubers bit his lip. Will he be able to tell Cabañas about what he's worried about? Of course you can, at the time of repentance, but not now; Now, only a few superficial concerns can be told to him. "You know, Father, Elizabeth and Qin Lang are the protagonists of the celebration of the wedding, if they disappear......"

"God, why are you worried about this?" Cabañas deliberately used a tone of great surprise and did not let Daubers find out that it was disguised, "Mr. Daubs, they won't disappear." ”

"Father ......"

"This is the church, the domain of God," he snorted contemptuously, "and even if that magician really knows how to make people disappear, his mere little power will not make any use here." And I've never heard of a magician who knows how to make people disappear before anyone else's eyes. Your worries, Mr. Daubers, are purely unnecessary. ”

Daubus was stunned, pondered for a moment, and then reluctantly admitted that Cabañas was right—not God and the sacredness of the church, but the latter sentence, that no magician had ever been able to make people disappear from the eyes of others, and that the most they could do was to grab a rabbit from their hats, or free themselves from the shackles on their hands; It's beyond their ability to make people disappear from other people's eyes.

He breathed a sigh of relief. "Well, Father, I agree with him performing magic tricks."

Cabañas didn't say a word, just patted him lightly on the shoulder, and then the two of them walked back to Qin Lang and Elizabeth together.

"I grant your request, Mr. Kotkin." Daubers told the magician, adding a warning, "Don't play tricks. ”

"You won't see the tricks, Mr. Daubers, I can assure you." Kotkin smiled and shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly, and his next sentence was to Qin Lang, "Are you ready, Mr. Qin?" ”

"Of course," Qin Lang nodded, "You can start." ”

"Good." Kotkin turned sideways to the church door and gesticulated, "All come in." Move a little faster. ”

So, under the watchful eyes of Daubers and others, a group of men and women who looked like Kotkin's assistants, but who made Daubers think it was Umbrella's agents, ran into the church with something strange: brackets, white curtains, ropes, pulleys, chandeliers...... Wait a minute. After these people came in, they didn't waste a little time or say a word before they put in the intense work, installing chandeliers, erecting brackets, and surrounding Qin Lang and Elizabeth with a white curtain......

At that moment, Daubers had some bad premonitions: Qin Lang and Elizabeth were hiding behind the curtain, what if they took the opportunity to slip away? After all, every church has a tunnel, and maybe its entrance is right where they stand, and they know it.

He pondered worriedly, until he finally noticed the shadow on the curtain.

The heart that had been lifted fell back again. Daubers didn't understand science, but he knew that as long as the shadow was still there, it meant that Qin Lang and Elizabeth hadn't left.

An unexpected surprise: he felt that he had found a way to prevent Qin Lang and Elizabeth from escaping...... To be precise, it allowed him to know if they had fled in the first place, and even grasp this information the moment they tried to take action. Of course, to do this, he had to devote all his energy - so for the rest of the time, Daubers kept staring at the shadow on the curtain, engrossed, not caring for anything else, neither listening, nor looking, not even blinking an eyelid, as if if he did this, the shadows of Qin Lang and Elizabeth would disappear immediately.

He was too focused on the shadow on the curtain - he made a mistake.

Kotkin asked him to leave his place and go directly to the curtain, and stay with all the guests, which he did, without a hint of alertness; Kotkin asked Qin Lang's guards and his assistants to stay on both sides of the podium, and just blocked the aisle leading to the back door of the church, and then adjusted the light to make it dim so that people could not see clearly, and he did not pay attention; Kotkin selected some "lucky" male and female guests to get close to the curtain and watch the magic show up close, but these people were all unfamiliar faces that he had never seen, and their height, body shape, dress, and even standing posture were extremely similar to Qin Lang and Elizabeth's shadows, and he still didn't notice it.

He just looked at the shadows, staring at them intently, but his mood was relaxed. They were always there, they didn't disappear, they didn't move, even when Kotkin performed the foreplay of his magic like a monkey.

Then the time of the end came.

"What are you waiting for, magician, let go of the curtain!" Someone shouted. The audience is getting tired of waiting.

"Are you ready to be amazed?" Kotkin stopped and asked rhetorically.

"Hurry up, Mr. Kotkin." Daubers said, "Take my word for it, and don't play tricks. ”

"As you wish." Kotkin replied calmly, gesturing to the four assistants who were responsible for holding the curtain.

The assistant let go of the rope, and the curtain fell, but Qin Lang and Elizabeth had disappeared without a trace.

"It can't be!" Daubs called, his face turning pale in an instant, but at that moment he heard a round of applause.

"Wonderful magic!" Guests stood up to congratulate Kotkin on his success, and some even asked if he would like to put on a show in London.

None of the guests realized such a simple implementation: the protagonists of the wedding, the bride and groom, had slipped away under their eyelids.

Go to another wedding.

On the other side of San Diego, another church.

Yi Shui walked back and forth in circles on the doorway of the church—like an ant on a hot pot—and from time to time, he would suddenly stop, look around for a moment, look at his watch again, and then continue in circles. He was nervous, there was no doubt about it, there were only ten minutes left before the scheduled wedding time, but Qin Lang and Elizabeth still didn't show up, Yi Shui couldn't help but start to suspect that maybe his plan didn't work, or that he was messed up by that magician. But either way, if they don't arrive in time for the deadline, there will be some trouble here.

The big man who is waiting in the church......

Yi Shui stopped and glanced back. Jack. Morgan, William. Mather, Bush, Harriman, Dewey, and Mahan, these are the people he knew, but there are many more that he has not seen, but he has only heard of, or well-known scholars. They squeezed out a little precious time from their busy schedules and waited in this church for Qin Lang and Elizabeth to hold their wedding. If they can't arrive on time...... No, they'd better arrive on time.

Yi Shui glanced at his watch again, and there were still nine minutes.

"Hurry up, Qin!" He grunted.

"You're nervous." A voice said behind him.

Yi Shui turned around quickly and saw a smiling face, an old gentleman who he did recognize, although still very unfamiliar. "Mr. Elliott......"

"You can call me Charles." Charles. William. Elliott said.

"I don't think that's appropriate, Mr. Elliott." Easy water to stick to. When Qin Lang invited Elliott to be Elizabeth's godfather and take Daubers' place at the wedding, he introduced him to this gentleman: Elliott was a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a doctoral supervisor in chemistry, and has been the president of Harvard University for the past three decades. He was by no means the one he could call by name. "You are a respected educator, president of Harvard, and the godfather of Elizabeth. I ......"

Elliot laughed. "You're not a student at Harvard, and you're not Qin Lang or Elizabeth, are you?" He patted Yi Shui on the shoulder, comforted him, and changed his mind, "Call me Charles." ”

"Uh......" Yi Shui hesitated. Even though it was Elliott himself's request, and twice, he still couldn't call him by his first name. But on the other hand, he can't say nothing either. After thinking about it for a while, Yi Shui decided to ignore the issue. "I'm worried if Qin Lang and Elizabeth can't arrive at the church on time......"

"That's nothing, young man." Elliot comforted him, interrupting him for the third time.

"But the guests will be unhappy." Yi Shui spread his hands, "I know that the time of the people here is precious. ”

"Oh, their time is precious, so they didn't waste a second." Elliot turned his head to the church, looked at the guests who were talking in a low voice, and then looked back, "What do you think they're discussing?" ”

Things that have nothing to do with the wedding, work, plans, deals. Yi Shui said in his heart and nodded. "It looks like my worries are a little unfounded."

"Of course, young man." Elliot smiled again, "You see, they've arrived. ”

Yi Shui hurriedly turned around, but at that moment, with the screeching sound of brakes, a Ford sports car drew a beautiful arc at the door of the church and stopped steadily.
