Chapter 25: Welcome to the Circus Training Ground

Pat has been in prison for three days in the middle of nowhere. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, he was leaning listlessly against the prison wall, his eyes hollow. The guard placed the plate in front of Pat through the small window again. After checking the food in the cell that had not been discarded by Pat, he looked at the paralyzed Pat, and then left satisfied.

But as soon as the prison guard went out, Pat's eyes suddenly became interested. I couldn't see that his spirit had been a little sluggish.

It seems that he was just pretending. In fact, for hours after each meal, Pat felt a knife-like pain in his stomach, and he vomited blood along with the pain. At the same time, there is a feeling of heaviness in the head. From this, Pat speculated that in addition to the poison, there were also some drugs that caused confusion in the food.

Pat had to convince the guards that he had been completely recruited.

But it's not a way to go on like this. Rather than suffer in silence like this, it is better to let this end sooner rather than later. With a decision, Pat took a bite off half of the sandwich and threw the other half on the ground. He picked up a small clay plate containing the sandwich in one hand and threw it against the railing.

Syllable!

"Hey, what the hell!" the crisp cracking sound in the cell caught the attention of the guards outside the door. They stopped playing the card game and prepared to see what Pat had done.

But when the prison guards pushed the door in, they were shocked by the scene in front of them!

Pat didn't run away, which was expected by the guards. But at this moment, Pat in the iron fence fell on his back on the gravel floor, motionless.

A large shard of broken pottery was plunged deep into his neck. The carotid artery had probably been cut, and his blood was already gushing all over the ground.

He ...... Is it dead?" the three prison guards froze in place, digesting the information in front of them. The prison guard who took the lead had a chill. Although they had seen corpses, it was the first time they had seen such a tragic scene.

"Presumably the drugs caused him to hallucinate, which caused him to commit suicide in a state of delirium...... It's okay now, and we'll save trouble......"

Early in the morning, Jasmine came to touch up Eric's makeup. Looking at Jasmine who was applying makeup to herself in the mirror, even the clown's heavy makeup did not cover Jasmine's thick eye bags. It seems that she didn't sleep well last night, maybe she's been thinking about his relationship with Lyle. Eric's mind kept popping up the conversation she had with Baron Lyle last night.

"I believe that this money can give us a bright future. 」

Eric speculates that Jasmine has had a number of private meetings with Lyle.

He was the first to speak to Jasmine, who was silent, "You have very few words today. ”

"I don't have the strength to speak, I was exhausted from yesterday's performance. Jasmine explained, "How did you investigate yesterday?"

Eric was speechless for a while, and as a result, he could be considered nothing. At that time, he did not enter the tent of the regiment leader until Jasmine had left from the secret meeting with Baron Lyle.

In the big tent, Alpha did see some red in his eyes, which meant that there had been bleeding in the tent. But because the color was so thin, Eric guessed that the red meant that Iyeta was in the middle of a crucial few days of the month. And this information is not helpful in finding the item.

"Hmm...... Not bad. Met at least one trainer friend. He said.

When Jasmine heard this, she stopped what she was doing and put her hands on her waist and said, "Use your time to make friends...... That means no progress?"

"Miss Jasmine, I need more time. That's all Eric can explain.

It's all because I've been eavesdropping on your tryst, and Eric can't say it. There are always things that people don't want to be known. Eric decides to keep the secret between Jasmine and Baron Lyle in his heart.

Jasmine didn't say anything more, she also knew that this search was tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. But as long as there is a glimmer of hope, she is not willing to give up easily, which is why she let Eric stay.

In a few moments, Jasmine made Eric as radiant as the day before. As a necessary preparation, Eric drank the second bottle of the voice-changing potion, and Jasmine took Erik's two hard-working boots.

After that, the two went out together and went to the central tent. The tent is the center of the performance in the evenings, and in the mornings it is a training ground for the big guys to practice their skills. Along the way, the actors dressed differently greeted Jasmine. Jasmine didn't have the slightest starring role, and responded one by one.

"You're so popular. Eric said. Judging by the number of greetings and the level of enthusiasm, it seems that Jasmine has a high status in the circus.

"Be kind to others, smile forever, and you will gain the friendship of many people. No one likes a guy with a straight face. Jasmine suddenly said.

Eric pouted, disagreeing. Being kind to others doesn't necessarily earn kindness from others, and he's seen a lot of guys with knives in their smiles. As the two of them got closer and closer to the training ground, there were more and more people. Without saying a word, Eric silently followed Jasmine into the tent.

Inside the tent, dozens of actors have already arrived, sitting in the audience on the periphery. Due to the limited space, the actors had to train sequentially. At this time, the most conspicuous thing on the training ground is the acrobats flying around in the sky. The tent has two towering wooden columns that stand at either end of the site. Two little girls in leotards are swinging on it. The two of them are sometimes close and sometimes far away, and it seems that they are going to do some circus action.

I saw that in mid-air, the girl on the right was swinging, and suddenly let go of the hands holding the swing. The girl on the left hooks the swing with the inside of her bent legs, and her hands are stretched forward to catch the girl on the right.

Beautiful! Eric applauded in his heart.

"Good, that's it. It was Connie who shouted at the little girl. Today, she wears a long dress of a lady with a dull color, and she has the temperament of a noblewoman. As the deputy head of the troupe, she was pacing back and forth in the field to watch the actors' training, and from time to time she made some suggestions.

Jasmine stepped forward and said, "Good morning, Connie." ”

"Good morning, Jasmine. Connie responded, and hugged Jasmine.

Jasmine pulled Eric behind her to her, "Connie, this is the Elle I told you earlier. ”

Yesterday's successful face-to-face meeting with the animal tamer without revealing his male identity has made Eric feel a lot more confident in his appearance. At this time, he generously stood in front of Connie: "Sister Connie, good morning. . . ”

Connie naturally knew Eric's identity. She is confident in her sisters' makeup skills, but she still tries to find a man's shadow in Ellie's flawless face.

Clearly, she failed.

"Ellie...... Today is your first day at the training ground and you're going to pick a show. Connie's tongue was a little knotted, and she couldn't make the connection between Elle and the detective she had been a few days ago.

Jasmine's makeup skills are so perfect that Connie wonders if she is a transfiguration mage.
