As night falls, it's time for the Gotham Library to close again.

The well-dressed blonde girl left the library with a disappointed expression.

I still haven't waited for that person today.

For a whole week, Harleen Queezel would wait in the library for Sui Feng to show up, wanting to return the library card to him, and to thank him in person.

But Sui Feng, who used to come every day, never appeared again.

Sometimes Harleen wondered if she had met an angel disguised as an adult and returned to heaven after helping her.

It's a pity that I can't say goodbye, but life still has to go on.

Harleen walked out of the library and walked in the direction of the Imperial Theater.

A few days ago, she saw that the Imperial Theater was reopening and recruiting dancers, so she had the courage to go for an audition.

Harleen practiced gymnastics in junior high school, and her coaches said she was very physically fit and could compete in the Olympics with a little training. It's just that the coach also hinted that if he wants to get his recommendation, he must either give money or sleep with him.

Harleen had no choice but to give up this path.

I didn't expect that after moving to Gotham, the gymnastics that she had given up would still come in handy, and she was recruited after only a few moves during the interview.

After a few days of serious rehearsals, today I finally have to perform. Although it is only one of dozens of backup dancers, the salary can be several times more than serving dishes.

Harleen took two long legs and ran towards the Imperial Theater.

Even though I tried my best, I was still too late in the library today, and I was almost late when I came to the theater.

Just as he was about to rush through the door, Harleen saw an expensive Rolls-Royce parked in front of the theater, and two rows of security guards hurriedly separated passers-by and respectfully opened the door.

The co-pilot stepped down a short, thin man with a somewhat deformed right foot.

Harleen recognized him, he was the owner of the Imperial Theater, and the last time he interviewed, he nodded and agreed to join the theater.

Harleen was shocked by what happened next, only to see the man walk to the back seat of the car and respectfully open the door.

At this time, Harleen's familiar figure stepped out of the car.

"How could it be him!"

Someone who has been waiting in the Gotham Library for a week and has not waited will meet here.

Harleen couldn't help but step forward, but before she could get closer, she was blocked by the bodyguards around her.

Surrounded by everyone, Sui Feng and Oswald walked into the theater together, but Sui Feng did not notice Harleen's existence.

Harleen never expected to meet again in such a place, she had guessed that Sui Feng was a Gotham from a wealthy family, but she didn't expect that his status was higher than she imagined, and even the theater owner had to open the door for him personally.

The difference between the identities and status of the two was so great that Harleen was a little scared and didn't dare to say hello to Sui Feng again.

But remembering the emotion when she received the gift that day, Harleen still decided to say thank you to Sui Feng in person.

"Anyway, he and Mr. Copote, so there's always a chance to meet."

Harleen walked happily towards the theater full of hope.

Soon backstage, and now that the show was only about ten minutes away, Harleen had to change her costume as quickly as possible.

I didn't have time to put on makeup, so I could simply touch up some foundation.

While she was busy, Harleen suddenly felt someone bump into her.

Looking back, it was a woman with heavy makeup.

Harleen recognized the other party, who was about to stage the lead role, a woman who was nearly thirty years old.

Harleen didn't even know her name, only that everyone else called her Blueberry.

Sister Blueberry bumped into Harleen and showed her a provocative smile: "You dare to be late for the first time, do you really think that you can get mixed up in the theater with this little face?" ”

Harleen knew very well why Sister Blueberry would target her, because Harleen was so beautiful, and she had experienced this jealousy countless times since she was a child.

If it was in school, Harleen would pick up a baseball bat and give the other person a fat beating, and only violence can fight bullying.

But not now, she needs the job.

Seeing that Harleen bowed her head and didn't speak, Sister Blueberry said proudly: "I advise you, just go out and stand on the street to sell yourself, don't come to the theater to waste time." Anyway, you won't be able to stay long. ”

After saying this, Sister Blueberry twisted her waist and left.

Harleen could only clench her fists, fantasizing in her mind about picking up a baseball bat and smashing it on Blueberry's head. Reality taught Harleen to be patient, the other party is the heroine, Harleen is just a backup dancer, and if she quarrels with her, her money will be gone.

But Harleen quickly took a deep breath to calm herself, and the show was about to begin.

The Imperial Theatre is a great place to perform musical and dance dramas, with a maximum capacity of more than 5,000 spectators at the same time.

Those who are willing to watch this kind of stage play are generally middle class or above in Gotham, so the income of each stage play is very considerable, but at the same time, the requirements of the stage play are quite high. After all, there are not many entertainment projects in this era, and there are many people who know how to play stage plays, all of them are insiders, and what they see is the details.

Sui Feng is a pure layman, but he now sits in a VIP box on the second floor, where the theater's owner, Osward, explains it himself.

"Stage plays are influenced by the stage, and it is difficult to interpret those grand narratives, so there are generally only three stages in the upper, middle and lower levels, and I put a little thought into the redesign......

Oswald proudly introduced Sui Feng to everything about the theater, which was his career and his achievement.

Although Oswald prefers Fish Mooney's bar, he also puts a lot of thought into the Imperial Theater.

As Oswald continued to explain, the stage play officially began, with bright lights, gorgeous sets, and exciting dances...... Sui Feng couldn't understand it, but he was shocked.

The beauties were singing and dancing in half-revealing clothes, and Sui Feng finally understood why the ancient tyrants were tempted by beauty.

Oswald was very happy that Sui Feng liked this kind of performance, and hurriedly said: "In order to reopen today, I found someone to rehearse a new play, the story of the counterattack of the little people at the bottom after being oppressed, adapted from my own experience, but changed to a female protagonist, Mr. Sui, you wait to give more valuable advice." ”

"You invited me today, it won't be as simple as watching a stage play, right?"

"Of course, going to the theater comes first, but I've also heard that His Excellency Falcone invited you to dinner two days ago, and I'm curious to see what you talked about."

While Sui Feng was on the docks to intimidate Maroney, Oswald was still busy fighting for ownership of the theater. When he came back to his senses, he heard that there was a big man named "Mr. Sui" in Gotham, and even Falcone treated him as a guest.

Oswald was shocked that he had worked so hard to build a small territory from a henchman.

Why did Sui Feng climb to a higher position than him overnight?

Oswald was a little jealous, but he admired it very much, no matter what method Sui Feng used, Sui Feng's status in Gotham was far higher than that of him as a theater owner.

Therefore, Oswald specially invited Sui Feng to watch the play, and the first scene of the reopening of the theater is very important and symbolic. This is to show favor to Sui Feng, and it is also to ask Sui Feng for other news.

Sui Feng casually explained: "Falcone is old and more interested in health things. You know, I know a little bit about Dongfang Qigong, so I discussed it with him. ”

"Qigong? That's it? Oswald seemed a little unconvinced.

"What else can I do to make a big man like Falcone care?"

Oswald felt that Sui Feng's words were very reasonable, so he asked curiously: "Mr. Sui, I have found a Chinese teacher and am studying hard, when can I learn qigong from you?" ”

"Oswald, you've worked hard, but it's not easy to learn Chinese, huh...... Wait until you can understand the original text of "The Art of War". ”

"The Art of War? Does this have anything to do with Qigong? ”

"It's not a big deal, but it's useful to you. Oswald, trust me, if you can read this book, you will become the king of Gotham sooner or later. ”

Seeing Sui Feng so solemn, Oswald nodded and said, "Okay, I'll read this book carefully." ”

The two were chatting, and suddenly, there was a burst of exclamations.

On the stage, a girl with two ponytails in a golden dance costume stood on the third stage and jumped from a ten-meter-high platform in a diving position.

However, instead of a swimming pool, she had a hard floor underfoot.
