"Ellie".

Hearing this terrible name, Eric immediately looked towards the source of the sound.

Over there, there was long fiery red hair.

Seeing it, Eric understood who had appeared in his sights. The other party waved at Eric enthusiastically as if he had discovered a new world.

Tamer Turuk.

Eric had almost convinced the female team members, and the appearance of the animal trainer directly dispensed with the process of notification. The surprise salutation proved that Truuk knew him, and it was obvious that the female members could no longer turn him away.

It's just that......

The female group members turned to look at Truuk, and then back at Eric.

A look of confusion.

"Ellie?"

The man in front of him actually has a woman's name?

“...... You heard it wrong. ”

Eric's face burned. Clever enough to come up with a better excuse, he walked straight past the cordon of the troupe member and walked towards Turuk, which was considered to be the circus camp.

"I didn't expect to see you here, Ellie!"

Truuk was still so enthusiastic that he even opened his arms to hug Eric.

This move made the detective hurriedly dodge.

“...... My name is Eric. ”

"Ai ...... Rick. Sorry, because we met when you had more time or... That's what it looks like. So I'm not used to you dressing like this now. ”

Truuk finally realized that it was a man standing in front of her, and apologized.

Eric thought for a moment and laughed out loud. Indeed, for the vast majority of the circus, he existed as "Ellie". It is only after solving the circus case that he reveals himself in front of everyone.

After putting away the embarrassment, he and Truuk chatted casually as they walked.

"Are you all okay?"

"It's all good, meet them, but the show is about to start in a while, and everyone is getting ready backstage. Only Jasmine and I were free. ”

Eric wondered, "You're not going to perform, how is the show going if the pillars aren't there?"

"Jasmine and I will only be on the show in the next few days. The head of the troupe said that he could not show all the shows to the guests on the first day of the show. ”

It's Yeta's idea again.

Then, Truuk added, "Moreover, Jasmine has not been a pillar for some time. ”

Eric looked surprised, in his opinion, Jasmine's skills were irreplaceable, and it must not be easy to beat her as a pillar.

"Who's the new pillar, won't it be Rowling's little sister who has learned to walk a tightrope, right?"

Churuk shook his head: "No, it's the new magician. ”

......

The first day of the Red Oriole Circus was extraordinarily grand, and the battle was far from being comparable to that of Luketown.

As the richest city in Odin, Pelos City will naturally spare no effort to assist the Red Oriole Circus, which can make money for him.

Customized luxury marquee, gifted by the city lord fort and designed by top designers, can accommodate as many as 1,000 people. All of them are seated in velvet upholstered satin for a comfortable seat.

Some of the guests sat on such a comfortable chair for the first time, rubbing their hands over the fabric. And they have become the target of ridicule by the rich people next to them.

So not all the people who came to see the show on this day were rich people. Only those with advance tickets for the first day will be allowed to attend the show. However, unlike the advance tickets for the next two days, many of the original tickets for the first day were bought by people in line.

The circus has been around for a long time, and the attention of the guests has never left the scene since. Now, a girl with a beautiful face is walking a tightrope in the sky, and everyone is watching with interest.

As she walked, the girl would occasionally make a few intimate gestures with the packed audience, which made the guests admire her at the same time as they were nervous.

Wait a minute...... It wasn't full, there was an empty seat in the corner.

Next to the empty seat sat a dejected guy. He didn't seem to have the joy of appreciating the wonderful circus at all.

He is a librarian by profession and comes from the Pelos Library.

Horse.

In fact, dear Miss Catherine, instead of accepting his invitation, showed impatience with him, which broke Marat's heartbreak. After the sadness, he only left one ticket for himself, and tore the other ticket to shreds. Marat tried to commemorate his lost love affair before it even began.

But what he didn't expect was that the day after he tore up that ticket, the circus ticket price on the first day of the Red Oriole had risen to a jaw-dropping level. And the pile of pieces of paper that went with the wind will never be recovered anyway.

That's the main reason why he's so depressed now.

But no one else noticed him, and he was happy to himself.

At last, the girl made it to the high platform opposite, swirled down the column in a wave of applause, and then made a curtain call. This marked the end of the show.

Of course, the usual huge hat link is indispensable. The rules set by Iyeta are not moving.

Soon the girl walked back into the arena with her big hat in her head. And the richest people of Pelos did not hesitate to let it rain in the tents.

However, due to the large size of the auditorium, many coins were smashed on the heads of the audience in the front row. Luckily, the show put them in such a good mood that they mostly picked them up again and threw them out.

Coins fell from the sky not only filled the hat, but also covered the ground. Without anyone cleaning them up, the show simply can't continue.

The shrewd Ieta had anticipated this situation at Pelos Station, and she hired a group of quick-eyed children to collect money for her. Instead of making guests wait, they completed their task in less than ten minutes.

"Let's hope Iyeta won't go crazy with joy. ”

Looking at the scene in front of him, Eric who watched all this from the side was very nostalgic.

"I think she will. Truuk agreed.

She added, "But Lillian's completion is average, not even as good as any of her recent practice. It was premeditated, though. Today, she deliberately took the stage alone to perform such a performance to set the stage for her and Rowling's joint show a few days later. After all, that little girl has grown to the point where she can perform on stage. Lillian wants to make her a blockbuster. ”

"I think Iyeta also had an idea in that. ”

Eric said.

"You're right. Truuk Road.

It's not hard to guess. Captain Iyeta is meticulous and thorough. Such a brilliant idea is very much in her style.

At this time, Angel stepped on wheels and boots across the field to introduce the next show to everyone.

"Here's a new star for the Red Warbler, Mr. ”

Hearing the name, Eric was a little shocked.

"Turuk! You didn't tell me the new magician was a man. ”
