Chapter 21 Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles
Song Dandan has a saying, if there is no celebrity with scandals, then it is not a celebrity. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
This sentence is very suitable for Chris, as a world-class new generation of magic masters, Chris's popularity is not weaker than that of world superstars.
Especially in Los Angeles, Chris's titular home base, this popularity is even more prominent.
"Found it, Chris stayed at the Four Seasons Hotel and the check-in time was two days ago. And at half past eight tonight, Chris will be in the lobby of the hotel, holding a big magic show. ”
The news about Chris was found by Dave on Twitter and announced by Chris's official spokesperson.
I have to say that a celebrity like Chris has no secrets in his every move. And the check-in time two days ago, Wu Ming carefully pondered it, and he was able to match the schedule of Horvas.
I really don't know if it was right or wrong for Horvas to come to Chris as an assistant.
Chris, a public figure under the flashlight, must have brought great confusion to Horvas.
"It's very high-profile! I'm afraid Chris himself doesn't think of himself as a dark wizard anymore. Hehe, time has really changed, and dark wizards have begun to get close to the people! Wu Ming had a sneer on the corner of his mouth, during the black-and-white wizard war in the Middle Ages, the wizards on both sides hid and hid, living like mice.
Look at the present, the future leader of the White Wizard, who is going to college at a prestigious university. And the new generation of dark wizards has given up the inhumane human experiments and stepped onto the international stage.
Wu Ming didn't know if this was due to the factors of the times, or if people's ideas had shifted.
But I have to say that if there is no intervention of the older generation of wizards, just let these new generation wizards develop slowly on their own. I'm afraid that in a few years, there will be no more black and white wizards in this world.
"Mentor, this Chris is so high-profile, will Horvas still come to him?"
"How could it not, as a dark wizard, Horvath is the only remaining patriarch on the side of the Dark Wizard. His life is already closely related to luxury, do you think that with Horvas's character, he will hide in the sewers and hide quietly for a month? ”
Wu Ming shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "Don't be stupid, Horvath is a very proud person, if you let him hide in the sewers, I'm afraid it will be even more excessive than killing him." And Chris, although high-profile, is the inheritor of Morgana and a natural ally of Horvath. If I had to choose, I would have gathered as many people as I could, rather than sitting in a dark corner.
Therefore, what we need to think about now is not the problem of them not being there, but how to defeat them individually. After all, with our strength, even if Horvas is seriously injured, it is not 100% active! ”
"That Chris is strong?" Hearing that the strength of the two sides was about the same, Dave hesitated for a while.
Los Angeles is an international metropolis, and the war between the two sides is an absolute nightmare for ordinary people.
Although Dave is a magician, his life has been integrated into the world of ordinary people. If he had a choice, he would rather choose the battlefield in an uninhabited park rather than in a hotel where magic shows are held.
"Conservative estimates, Chris's level should be about the same as yours. And Horvas, who was seriously injured, was still better than me, and it was a tough battle. ”
Wu Ming saw Dave's concerns and said, "In this way, in order to avoid casualties and Chris, unite with Horvas." We're better off breaking them down individually than going it alone. ”
"What do you want to do? Separate them, take one as fast as you can, and then deal with the other? ”
"Almost, let's go to the hotel first, and then discuss countermeasures."
After Wu Ming finished speaking, he stopped a taxi and drove the three of them to the Four Seasons Hotel.
There was no word all the way, and the car drove on the road, getting closer and closer to the destination.
Wu Ming looked out the window from beginning to end, while Dave, who was in the back seat, whispered to Peggy, as if he was really out on a trip.
"Sir, the Four Seasons Hotel has arrived!"
Under the watchful eye of the taxi driver, Wu Ming and the three of them got out of the car and looked up at the large banner that had been raised outside the Four Seasons Hotel.
At this time, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
Because tonight, Chris will have a big magic show here, and many reporters are there first, so as to facilitate the advantageous position.
"Hello sir, are you here to watch Master Chris, tonight's magic show?"
As soon as Wu Ming and the three walked in, a reporter rushed up, apparently looking for news.
"Yes..."
Looking at the voice recorder in the reporter's hand, Wu Ming smiled lightly and said with a pun: "I like Christine's magic very much, so I specially rushed over from New York, I hope tonight's performance will not disappoint me!" ”
Wu Ming bit the word disappointment very hard, and the expression on his face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling was even seen by the reporter as a color of expectation.
"Hello listeners, this is the sound of the radio, recorded live at Four Seasons. At present, because of Master Chris, magic enthusiasts from all over the country have gathered in the Four Seasons Hotel. We have reason to believe that this will be a very successful magic event, and we ......"
Amid the chatter of reporters, Wu Ming pushed away the crowd and entered the hotel lobby.
In the lobby of the hotel, many celebrities from all walks of life gathered here to talk about Chris's great achievements.
I have to say that it is impossible for a magician to disguise himself as a magician and not succeed.
However, Wu Ming has no intention of participating in the touting of these fans, because he still has something to do.
"How much is Chris's room?" Standing in front of the service counter, Wu Ming put his hands on the bar and asked softly to the waiter.
"I'm sorry sir, but our hotel has a rule that we can't expose residents' information."
The waiter had a professional smile on his face, and a mocking look flashing in the corners of his eyes, indicating that there were really many people asking this question.
"Tell me..."
Wu Ming didn't argue, but gently shook the ring on his right hand, and the red light on the ring flashed.
"Yes, yes sir."
The waiter's eyes were dazed for a while, his hands were quickly tapping on the computer, and he replied mechanically: "On the twelfth floor of the hotel, room number 303." ”
"After checking to see if there were any friends of Chris staying in the past two days. The man wore a top hat and held a sapphire-encrusted cane. ”
"Yes, that gentleman is a friend of Chris, and lives next door to Mr. Chris, room number 304."
"Good..."
Wu Ming smiled at the corner of his mouth, walked towards the elevator without looking back, and said, "Help us open a room, right next to Mr. Chris." ”
... Bite...
The elevator door opened automatically, and Wu Ming and the three of them hid in it.
In the last sight of the three of them, there was a blank-eyed waiter, entering his identity information in front of the computer, and that information happened to be his own.
"Mentor, you can do it! Not only use magic to control the waiter. What's more, he also let him swipe his own card to serve us! I really don't know if the waiter will go crazy when he understands it! ”
In the elevator, Dave pouted and denounced Wu Ming's actions.
Hearing Dave's complaint, Wu Ming shook his head disapprovingly, feeling that Dave was really hopeless.
Magicians and ordinary people belong to two classes in themselves.
In Wu Ming's cognition, it was really normal to use the power of magic to benefit himself.
Although morally speaking, it would be a bit crazy to let the waiter swipe the card.
But Wu Ming is not a person who follows the rules, and this small problem is nothing in his eyes.
