~8 min read 1,477 words

Lake the missing clown

It went quite well.

Cheng Shi and Zhen Xin, who were lying on the roof, were still eavesdropping on the conversation in the office. The two inside didn't even notice that there were two liars squatting on their heads.

Lake was a clown performer who wasn't tall. At this time, he was wearing full makeup, without a trace of apology for his disappearance. No matter how Captain Fite roared, he was always just one sentence:

"As long as I am here, Xi Mu will definitely win."

This sentence seemed to be a reassurance for Fite, making the furious him gradually calm down. He pulled a chair, sat in front of Lake, stared straight at the other party, and asked word by word:

"What have you experienced recently?

Did you sneak out to find a new idea, or did you figure out the other party's routine and think of a way to win over Maxford?

You definitely didn't run out after seclusion, right?

When you said you wanted to be in seclusion, I realized that you didn't want to be in seclusion at all, but wanted to go out!

I thought you were just to relax and relieve your nervous mood. Who knew you actually went out for so long!

Tell me, Lake, what is your new idea? I can help you check it. Don't you think I will leak the secret?

In this world, no one wants Xi Mu to win more than I do!"

Even on the roof, Cheng Shi felt Captain Fite's urgency. However, Lake still had that lukewarm attitude. He patted the captain's arm and smiled:

"You should relax. Believe me, we will definitely win.

As for the others, keep it secret.

Captain, I'm not afraid of you leaking the secret, but want to give you a surprise.

You are too tired, and your nerves are too tight. You need to rest well.

Let this curtain call performance lead us to victory, and also 'award' and thank you for your dedication to Xi Mu for so many years.

Believe me, I won't let you down."

Fite was moved. He looked at Lake, his lips trembling for a long time, and finally all turned into a sigh.

He held Lake's hand tightly and nodded heavily:

"Good, I believe you, and I can only believe you.

But don't disappear again, we don't have that much time to waste.

Six o'clock tonight, come here for a meeting. I will notify all performers to prepare for your stringing words.

Also, when do you want to perform your own show?"

"Pressure the stage."

"Pressure the stage?" Captain Fite's voice was several degrees higher instantly. He stood up directly, unable to believe it, "You are a clown, what performance can make a clown's program pressure the stage?

David's new magic is technically amazing and effective. Unless you perform it for me now, I can't risk putting you last."

Lake didn't insist either. He pondered for a moment and smiled: "Then pressure the axis is also fine."

"You..."

Seeing that this pillar insisted on playing mystery with himself before the final duel, Captain Fite's expression changed several times, and finally chose to trust his old partner.

"I'll go discuss with the animal trainer and arrange his performance in front. Lake, I hope your new idea is worthy of Xi Mu's signboard."

As he spoke, Captain Fite pushed the door and left.

And the moment Fite left, Lake also slipped out the back door and went straight back to his tent in the rest area.

His tent was in a corner far from the rest area, detached and quiet enough. Such an arrangement was probably to allow the clown to have a good rest environment.

Plus, most actors were performing in the park at this time, and the rest area was sparsely populated, which saved a lot of trouble for the two trackers.

As soon as Lake entered the door, he walked towards the bed with a clear purpose, and immediately after, he dug out a long row of needles and daggers under the bed!

Cheng Shi was too familiar with these props. Assassins in many cities in the Civilization Era would use these most basic weapons to assassinate their targets.

Cheng Shi had also used them, but later felt that these things were too obvious, so he eliminated them and switched to things that were more colorless, tasteless, and formless.

But a clown, what is he doing with these assassination props?

Cheng Shi and Zhen Xin were stunned, and immediately understood what Lake's so-called "Xi Mu must win" was all about.

Good guy, you are going to play dirty, right?

The days you disappeared, you wouldn't have gone to the east of the city to step on the spot, would you?

If Lake's so-called victory is relying on means to assassinate Chen Xi's clown, then whether the so-called ending of this trial should be to prevent Lake from letting the Chen Xi Circus have a perfect ending, while Xi Mu loses its honor and welcomes the new king to ascend the throne?

For a time, the two liars were also a bit confused.

But they weren't confused about one point, that is, no matter what the ending is, as long as they control the clown in front of them first, they can know the truest plan from him.

And once the plan is known, the development context of the whole thing can be inferred.

Thus, the two decisively made a move, no longer hiding their figures, instantly appeared behind the clown, and took advantage of Lake still organizing equipment to press the other party down without saying a word.

Cheng Shi just wanted to let the other party not struggle, but weird things appeared!

Just when Cheng and the two pressed the other party's shoulders left and right, Lake, who was the person involved, disappeared directly!

That's right, just disappeared into thin air under the eyes of the two players!

Cheng Shi's eyes condensed, and Zhen Xin's expression changed slightly.

This wasn't because they were played, but because they saw the other party's means. This wasn't an ability a circus clown could have at all; this was clearly a phantom of a trick master!

Lake is actually a trick master?

Of course not!

He is the clown of the circus, but the problem is whether this Lake in front of Cheng Shi and the two is the real Lake is not certain.

Don't forget, only four players have appeared in this trial so far, and who the remaining two are hasn't been seen yet.

So could this trick master be disguised by a teammate in this game?

The other party had long figured out the causal relationship, so they wanted to clear the trial once and for all in this way?

Not impossible.

But this lone wolf is also too lone. With such a good method, why didn't he dare to discuss it with his teammates?

This doesn't look like walking alone, but like avoiding something!

Who is he avoiding?

At this moment, the two liars who were shaken looked at each other, and different colors flashed in their eyes.

Things seemed to suddenly become interesting.

Cheng Shi looked in all directions, his smile playful:

"Speaking of which, trick master is your sister's profession, and it should also be your comfort zone. How come you didn't see this, and still let people play you...

Tsk, you are a 【Fraud】 Shenxuan, isn't it shameful to say it out?"

Zhen Xin listened in all directions, with sarcasm on her face:

"Isn't the clown also tricked by the clown?

It seems that only when two clowns meet will they know who is the real clown.

Before complaining about others, look at yourself, Mr. Clown, your nose fell off."

As she spoke, Zhen Xin bumped Cheng Shi's arm with her elbow, and the magic cards between her fingers also quietly pointed to her feet.

Cheng Shi looked sideways and found that there was still a shadow between the two people's shadows. He raised his eyebrows, instantly drove Shadow Cheng Shi to trace the shadow up, and pulled the figure wrapped in a cloak from the tent beam.

Seeing the figure fall, the magician's cards flew out like rain, turning into a cage and locking the person in mid-air.

"Caught you."

Zhen Xin smiled lightly, and then was about to tear off the cloak on the person, but Cheng Shi pulled her and retreated quickly.

"Be careful of ghosts!"

Sure enough, before the words fell, the cloak imprisoned by the cards drifted and untied itself, revealing... bundles of explosives wrapped inside.

The fuse of the explosives was clearly lit, but it burned silently.

The two pupils shrank, and immediately after, they were blown straight away in a roar. ===== CHAPTER 1255 =====
