On the stage, two tall shelves, each with a glass case. The cabinet was not large, barely enough for one person to stand in it, about five meters apart.

The audience in the audience was watching the tall young man in a white suit on the stage with bated breath, looking forward to the wonderful performance he was about to bring to himself.

Jiang Xiao smiled and stepped forward step by step, bent down and bowed to the stage, spun half a circle, beckoned, and then picked up a black cloth from the small table on the side. The black cloth is also not large, and it will be able to wrap people in it.

Jiang Xiao held up the black cloth with both hands, flipped it back and forth, signaled to the audience that there was nothing unusual on the front and back of the black cloth, and smiled: "Then, the time to witness the miracle has arrived!"

Jiang Xiao walked up to the glass cabinet on the left step by step, bowed to the audience again, and then opened the cabinet door and walked in.

The two glass cases, both transparent on six sides, hang in the air, without any cover from top to bottom. From the time Jiang Xiao opened the cabinet door, to the time he walked in, and then to the door he closed, he could always see Jiang Xiao clearly.

Then, Jiang Xiao slowly opened his arms, propped up the black cloth, and slowly descended to cover his body.

In the last moment before his handsome face was covered with a black cloth, Jiang Xiao showed a bright smile that the audience had long been accustomed to.

After the thin black cloth covered Jiang Xiao's body, it became the only visual obstacle between him and the audience. According to common sense, Jiang Xiao has no chance to react at all.

However, there is no common sense in magic shows.

After being covered by that black cloth, Jiang Xiao's originally tall figure suddenly grew shorter at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if it was swallowed up by quicksand or swamps, and was sucked in by the floor of the glass case.

But the transparent glass cabinet is still supported in mid-air by a steel frame, and it is still more than half a meter high from the floor of the stage, where is there a hiding place for a big living person?

What is even more surprising is that in another glass cabinet on the right, five meters away, a figure is slowly rising.

In the glass cabinet on the right, a black cloth had already been covered. And now, the black cloth that was originally laid flat at the bottom is showing a bulge, and it is still rising little by little. And the speed of the rise is the same as the speed of Jiang Xiao's descent in the glass cabinet on the left.

The audience let out a burst of exclamation.

However, after only half a minute, the black cloth in the glass cabinet on the left had completely lost its support and fell to the bottom of the cabinet. In the glass case on the right, the black cloth has been propped up to a person's height. Then, a pair of hands gently pinched it from the inside, and with a heavy flick, the black cloth was lifted from the bottom up.

Jiang Xiao, who was wearing a white suit, still had that bright smile on his face, opened his arms to the audience, proudly swearing his existence.

When Jiang Xiao slowly walked out of the glass cabinet, stood in the middle of the stage, and bowed to the audience, the entire venue was already applauding.

Although everyone already knew that Jiang Xiao, a new young magician, had recently become famous, it was still beyond the expectations of the audience to perform such an incredible performance on such a stage with almost no cover.

In the applause of the audience, Jiang Xiao left the curtain and walked off the backstage.

After the performance, Jiang Xiao packed up his things, smiled goodbye to the rest of the staff on the stage, and walked quickly from the internal passage to the parking lot.

His car is an all-electric white Tesla with a sleek shape. It's just that Jiang Xiao's brows are raised slightly at the moment.

A woman, a woman in a light gray professional suit, was leaning on the front cover of his Tesla, looking at Jiang Xiao who was walking towards her, revealing a shallow smile.

Is...... A woman who took the initiative to throw herself into her arms?

Jiang Xiao thought secretly in his heart, the speed under his feet did not change at all, and a smile was also responded to on his face, and he walked towards the woman.

Since becoming famous, such a woman is not uncommon, and even waiting for him in the parking lot can only be regarded as a relatively gentle way, Jiang Xiao has long been accustomed to it. It's just - naturally not every woman who takes the initiative to come to talk to Jiang Xiao will accept it.

It wasn't until he approached the car that Jiang Xiao saw the woman's appearance clearly. Her facial features are as perfect as sculptures, even in what Jiang Xiao has seen in her life, she can be regarded as a first-class beauty. In particular, a pair of eyes are calm and deep, like the lake water in early summer, half soft, half clear. But with a pair of eyebrows that fly obliquely into the sideburns, it adds a heroic spirit.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang. ”

When Jiang Xiao was still five meters away from her, the woman straightened up from the front cover of the car, took two steps towards him, and stretched out her hand with a smile.

"Hello. Jiang Xiao stretched out his hand and shook it, but felt that although this woman's hand was delicate and tender, it was not at all different from the delicate of other women, but calm and powerful, and for a while there was a strange feeling in his heart.

"My name is Purple Smoke. I just saw Mr. Jiang's performance in the audience, and I was very amazed. Although I had heard of Mr. Jiang's name before, I had never witnessed it in person. When I saw it today, it really lived up to its name. The woman smiled lightly and withdrew her hand: "I think, at this moment, don't say it's domestic, it's just looking at the whole world, and I can't find a magician like Mr. Jiang with amazing skills, but I'm afraid I won't be able to find a second one." ”

Purple smoke ......?

This kind of name, which is not her real name at first hearing, and her tone......

Jiang Xiao smiled and shook his head slightly, noncommittal, and at the same time secretly had some doubts in his heart that were different from usual.

The woman named Ziyan in front of her, the tone and content of her mouth were not like those fans who took the initiative to flirt with him before, or fanatical, or actively seduced, but more like ......

- It's more like a social situation, or even a feeling when discussing cooperation.

And the expression on her face, the faint smile, is also not mixed with the slightest hint of male and female affection.

When he didn't know the details of the other party, Jiang Xiao would never say too much. At this moment, whether he admits it frankly or pretends to be modest, it is not in line with his character, it is better to simply wait for the other party and continue to show his intentions in the future.

"I don't know Mr. Jiang's magic, who is the teacher?" Ziyan's wonderful eyes gently turned Jiang Xiao's up and down, and said with a clever smile.

"The world is so big, there are always a few self-taught people. Jiang Xiao owed a debt and said with a faint smile.

Ziyan stretched out his hand, half-turned, tapped lightly on Jiang Xiao's car cover, and nodded: "It's indeed as I thought before." Since a performance like Mr. Jiang's has never seen anyone perform before, not even close, it would be strange if he was not self-taught. Just ......"

When Ziyan said this, he paused, did not continue, but looked at Jiang Xiao, and suddenly changed the topic: "Isn't it too strange to talk in this parking lot? I wonder if Mr. Jiang has the leisure to go to have a glass of wine with me now? I know that there is a place that is not only clean, but also has good wine." ”

"I'm sorry. Jiang Xiao shook his head and rejected Ziyan: "I just finished the show, I'm a little tired, I just want to go home and take a good shower." If I drink, I prefer to be in my own home, which is more comfortable. And...... I'm afraid that the wine in my house is also better. Wish...... I'll have a chance next time. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Ziyan to say more, Jiang Xiao had already smiled at her, walked to the left side of the car and opened the door: "If you don't mind......

Ziyan's face didn't show a look of rejection, just smiled slightly, let go of Jiang Xiao's car, watched Jiang Xiao sit in the car, and then slowly drove towards the exit.

When Jiang Xiao's car disappeared from sight, Ziyan's face once again showed an intriguing expression.

"Teleportation...... It's just that it doesn't seem like the bloodline has fully awakened, and I don't know which rank it belongs to. But...... Let's try again. ”

Jiang Xiao drove all the way to the eastern suburbs, although he was slightly unhappy in his heart, but he was quickly blown away by the night breeze blowing in the car window.

Ziyan is indeed a stunning beauty, even among the various women he has come into contact with in his life, she can be regarded as outstanding. If you change your weekdays, even if you don't expect any physical contact, just looking at it is enough to be eye-catching.

But Jiang Xiao really didn't want to do more contact with her.

Because as long as he touches on the topic of magic tricks he performs, he will always have resistance and displeasure from the bottom of his heart. And this kind of resistance and displeasure is difficult to eliminate even the most beautiful face.

Half an hour later, Jiang Xiao returned to his home in the eastern suburbs. After taking a quick hot shower, putting on a bathrobe, and walking back to the living room, Jiang Xiao completely eliminated the unhappiness caused by Ziyan's exploration.

Jiang Xiao walked to the wine cabinet, glanced up and down, picked out a bottle of Nikka Taketsuru 21 Year Old Whisky from RB, poured half a glass for himself, sat on the sofa, gently shook the wine glass, and listened to the sound of the wine.

Jiang Xiao is very satisfied with his current life. Very satisfied.

Only two years after his debut, he has caused an incredible whirlwind in the magic world. In just two years, the title in the mouth of others has changed from a "rising star" to a "genius from heaven". And now, there are even occasional people who use the term "master magician" to describe him.

Young and rich, famous, coupled with handsome appearance, Jiang Xiao has never lacked beauties who take the initiative to give him arms - but he has always had enough moderation - he can occasionally have a one-night affair, but he has never really developed any stable relationship.

Since he was eighteen years old.

Because of a sufficiently intimate relationship, girls can't help but start to explore a question from Jiang Xiao - how did you perform those amazing magic tricks?

And this secret is absolutely impossible for Jiang Xiao to reveal. No matter to whom.

Jiang Xiao sank himself into the sofa and took a sip of the wine, feeling the aroma of blended malt whiskey, plum and oak, while reliving in his mind his perfect performance tonight. The CD plays the ink spot's old jazz "I don't want to set the world on fire", which is melodious and long.

It was the perfect night to relax and relax, and it was the night that Jiang Xiao would spend after every performance.

It's a pity that this enjoyment is broken by an abrupt mobile phone ringtone.

Jiang Xiao frowned, reluctantly picked up the mobile phone on the coffee table in front of him, and found that it was an unfamiliar number. And on his mobile phone, there are few unfamiliar numbers calling.

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Xiao pressed the answer: "Hello." ”

"Hello, Mr. Jiang, I think, you should have finished taking a shower by now, right?"

On the other end of the phone, it was a young woman's voice, cold and elegant, but from the depths of the voice, there was a hint of erratic and elusive sexiness.

And the owner of this voice is the purple smoke that Jiang Xiao has just come into contact with.

Jiang Xiao's brows furrowed slightly: "Miss Ziyan, I'm afraid it's not polite to call at this time, right?" Moreover, if I'm not mistaken, I seem to have rejected you just now." ”

"Of course, I still remember. Ziyan on the other end of the phone chuckled: "I haven't been rejected many times, and Mr. Jiang, you happen to be one of them, how can I forget? It's just that Mr. Jiang, you just rejected my proposal to go out for a drink, but you didn't say that I am not welcome to come to visit, right?"

Jiang Xiao was suddenly stunned, and before he could reply, he had already heard two gentle knocks on the door, which came from the door and the telephone receiver at the same time.

"Since the wine in Mr. Jiang's house is so good, I wonder if I have the honor to taste it?"

Jiang Xiao's brows finally really twisted.

Came to the door?

Purple Smoke, this woman...... What exactly do you want to do?

It is no longer a simple task to find your phone number in a short period of time, and now you appear at your door, let alone ordinary people.

Ziyan's actions had already made Jiang Xiao's heart full of vigilance.

"Mr. Jiang, it's rude to let a lady wait outside for too long. Hearing Jiang Xiao's silence, Ziyan on the other end of the phone smiled lightly.

Jiang Xiao took a deep breath gently, hung up the phone, and walked to the door.

When I opened the door, standing outside the entrance was the purple smoke I had just seen half an hour ago.
