"The enemy hid the key target in such a dense crowd that it would be very difficult for me to find him. But when it comes to finding someone in a crowd, I have professional helpers..."
Dorothy thought so, then she took out a pocket watch from her pocket, looked at the time, and then murmured softly.
"Then... our big star should go out now..."
…
Tivian, East City District.
In a prosperous street somewhere in East Tivian, next to a busy area decorated with lights and colorful lanterns, a huge theater stands here. At this moment, at the huge entrance of the theater, there are countless people gathered, including many ordinary people holding flowers, hesitating and excited, and there are also reporters holding cameras and notes. They all seem to be waiting for something.
As time passed, the door of the theater slowly opened, and a figure walked out with an entourage following him. The waiting crowd couldn't help but cheer.
"Adele! Miss Adele!"
"Ms. Buchuzu! Look here, please!"
"Miss Adele, can I ask you a few questions?"
As soon as that figure appeared, reporters and people at the scene all rushed towards him, but that figure brought his bodyguards to separate the crowd.
"Everyone, I'm very busy today. If you have anything to say, let's talk about it another day~"
Wearing a slim black women's windbreaker and a large sun hat, Adele smiled and spoke to the people around her. Then she moved forward surrounded by the crowd. At the roadside in front of her, there was a carriage waiting for her.
At this moment, Adele was officially on her way to attend the opening ceremony of the main venue of the Expo, where she had an important program to show the world.
Adele walked forward with graceful and confident steps, and just when she was about to reach the front of the carriage, several figures rushed out from the crowd and blocked Adele's way. Upon closer inspection, she saw that they were all wearing police uniforms.
"Ms. Bu Yuz, please stay." The leading police officer with a small mustache looked at Adele and said sternly. Looking at the row of guards in front of them who seemed to be the ones who appeared in major conference venues, Adele frowned slightly and said.
"Gentlemen... Is there anything you want to talk to me about? If it's not urgent, can we deal with it later? I have something urgent to do now..."
Adele spoke to the guards in front of her, and the leading guard smiled and replied.
"Ms. Bu Yuz, I know you are in a hurry to go to the Crystal Palace for your performance, but we are coming from there. We are from the venue. The reason we are here to find you is to inform you of the program adjustments just decided by the conference. Your program has been adjusted to the second branch venue in East Tivian, so you don't have to go to the main venue now, but go to the branch venue directly."
The captain of the guard said this. Hearing what he said, Adele was slightly startled at first, and then spoke with a little surprise.
"My show... was moved to a branch venue? No way, sir, I may have received a personal invitation from Sir Thorin from the opening ceremony committee. He said that I am the pearl of Tivian and an indispensable part of this grand event... Are you mistaken?"
"We are not wrong, miss. Look, here is the written document of the transfer order issued by the committee. It is specially for you and has all the signatures on it. This is enough to prove that what we said is true." The captain of the guards said as he took a few documents from the hands of other guards around him and handed them to Adele in front of him. After Adele took them and took a look at them, she was a little puzzled and shook her head slightly.
"It all looks good... but does this kind of program adjustment require a formal document? Why don't they let me attend the main venue? Can I contact Sir Thorin?" Adele continued to ask the guards in front of her, and the captain of the guard took out an envelope to answer.
"This is the letter that Sir Thorin asked me to give you. It explains the reason. He believes that as the pearl of Tivian, your dance should be dedicated to the vast majority of ordinary Tivian people, rather than the rich people who can enter the main venue. This will be more beneficial to your future development."
The captain of the guard said this, while Adele beside him had already opened the envelope and glanced through it quickly, then sneered and replied.
"Hmph...ridiculous reason. Please move aside and let me go to the main venue right now to explain it to Sir Thorin and the others in person."
"I'm sorry, Miss Bu Yuz, we can't let you go to the main venue now. This is an order given to us by the committee. We need to ensure that you go to the branch venue immediately..." The chief guard seemed to completely ignore Adele's words and said this to Adele. There was an obvious sense of coercion in his words. Listening to the chief guard's words, Adele couldn't help but narrow her eyes slightly.
"Oh...you are so strict, gentlemen. Can't you even be a little bit flexible?"
Adele said this with a hint of frivolity in her words. Her words, coupled with her appearance and demeanor, made the guards in front of her feel moved. Then, the desire that had just risen in them immediately spread out as rapidly as a raging fire, and was completely unstoppable.
"This... is indeed... ugh!!" Just as several guards were about to agree to Adele's request because of the strong desire generated by their heartbeats, several marks appeared faintly on their skin under their clothes, and then an extremely sharp pain suddenly rose in their heads, as if their spirits and brains were pierced by thousands of sharp needles.
The intense pain made the guards unsteady and sway for a few times, but it also awakened their will from the strong desire. Several guards were awakened by the pain, and then the chief guard, who was in the lead, panted and glanced at Adele and said.
"Huh...Huh...I'm afraid we can't make that happen. Miss Adele, please go to the branch venue right now. We will be there with you..."
Looking at the appearance of several guards in front of her, Adele's face sank slightly, and then she spoke slowly.
"It seems...you guys are not willing to give in."
"Huh... Huh... There's nothing we can do. This is our fate after all. If Miss Adele is determined to go to the main venue, she can also step over us..." The captain of the guards said this to Adele. After listening to his words, Adele was silent for a while, and then looked at the people in front of her in silence.
When Adele, a big star, encountered such a thing, her fans at the scene were all worried and looking at her, while those reporters were taking pictures and writing furiously to record this breaking news. At this moment, everyone at the scene thought that Adele was in a dilemma.
In fact, at this moment Adele was praying silently in her heart, she prayed like this.
"The Great Aka who records all things... please connect me..."
…
'Adele was stopped?'
At the main venue of the opening ceremony of the Expo, in the spacious auditorium, Dorothy couldn't help but frown after receiving Adele's prayer. She had thought that there might be problems in Adele's direction, but she didn't expect it to be in this way.
'Adele's special identity is not a big secret in the secret world of Tivian... Many people know that Adele is special. When Farajo attempted to assassinate her, she performed in the Palace of Beauty in front of a bunch of Farajo upper-class people. With such high exposure in both the secret world and the real world, there is no reason for the Eight Peaks not to pay attention to Adele.
'Although they could not confirm whether Adele posed a hostile threat to them, allowing such an uncontrollable extraordinary person to come to the venue would definitely add variables to them.
'Last time at the New Year's Eve party, Lord Balek was assassinated, and the plans of the Eight Pointed Ones failed one after another. In the end, the plan did not fail because the Night Demon was mobilized to back it up. Adele performed on stage at that party.
'The Eighth Peak may have suspected that the frequent setbacks in their plans at the New Year's Eve party when Lord Barak was assassinated may be related to Adele. Although they could not find any direct evidence, this did not prevent them from deciding to kick Adele, a risky item, out of the opening ceremony at the main venue. It seems that Charles IV only supervised the construction of the Crystal Palace, and he did not have the energy to manage the specific opening ceremony. In this way, the Eighth Peak could easily corrupt the opening ceremony committee and directly refuse Adele's performance and transfer her to another place...
"This is a complete attempt to completely eliminate Adele's unstable factors. They are really playing it safe... this group of people in the Eight Points."
Touching her chin, Dorothy thought seriously that she had just been planning to rely on Adele to come here to find someone, but the other side restricted Adele's actions, which made her feel a little troubled for a moment.
"What should I do, little detective...this group of people won't let me pass, and they're provoking me. How about I knock them all down and then come over?"
At this time, Adele's voice came to Dorothy's mind again, and after listening to Adele's words, Dorothy immediately responded.
"No, you must not use force now. They are probably waiting for you to use force now. You can't let them know about this.
"If you come here to force me, don't even think about performing at the main venue tomorrow..."
Dorothy said this to Adele in a serious tone. She had a reason for saying this, and the reason was due to the current situation.
First of all, although Charlie IV is not on the same side as the Eight Points, he is not on the same side with Dorothy either. Based on the information Dorothy has analyzed so far, she believes that Charlie IV may be in an isolated state where he doesn't trust anyone. In this state, even Misha will be attacked if she makes a tentative contact with him. He may judge anyone as an enemy at any time.
If Adele first used forceful means to attack the guards to escape and come to the main venue, if Charlie IV knew about it, it would be very difficult for him to determine what Adele's position was.
At present, Bajian and Heimeng may have almost controlled the opening ceremony preparation committee. If Adele wants to forcefully break through their restrictions and perform, then Charlie IV will definitely suspect her. Bajian can just make Adele appear suspicious in front of Charlie IV. With Charlie IV's current state, he may immediately ban Adele from performing for safety reasons. If Adele forces herself to perform at that time, it will only intensify the conflict between him and Charlie IV, which may be the situation that Bajian does not expect.
Therefore, no matter what, we cannot force ourselves now, at least we cannot force ourselves openly first.
"Adele, just agree with them and go to the branch venue. I'll find a way. Remember to keep in touch and walk slowly..."
Dorothy said this to Adele in her heart, and Adele quickly responded.
"Well... I understand you, little detective. I hope you can come up with a proper plan..."
Adele responded to Dorothy in her heart. After hearing this, Dorothy took a deep breath and was silent for a while. Then, after thinking for a while, she said to Neveu beside her.
"Senior Neveu, there is still some time before the official opening, and I have something I would like you to take care of."
"Ah? What's the matter again?" Nephnis couldn't help but blurt out in confusion after listening to Dorothy's words, while Dorothy continued speaking.
"Time is tight now. Please go to the downtown area of Dongcheng District first. I will tell you slowly while you are on the way."
"Oh... since it's Miss Dorothy you said... well, I'm leaving now, remember to take my seat."
Neveu said this to Dorothy, and then she stood up and left the scene, walking down the stairs from the other side of the auditorium.
After Dorothy watched Neveu leave, she began to connect with other people through information channels.
"Hello... is this Mr. Black Dog? I'm a bachelor, may I ask where you are now? I have a task for you..."
…
In the East City District of Tivian, at the entrance of the theater on a busy street, Adele, who had been standing silently, suddenly changed her expression. Then she sighed slightly, looked at the guards in front of her, and continued.
"Well, you win. I won't go to the main venue."
Adele said this, and after hearing what she said, the captain of the guards smiled slightly and continued speaking.
"I'm glad that you can cooperate with our work, Miss Bu Yuzi. Come on, please get in the car. We will help you drive to the second venue..."
The captain of the guard said this, and then he made a welcoming gesture towards the door of the carriage, but Adele ignored him and continued.
"It's not far from here to the branch venue. There's no need to take a car. I'll walk there..." Adele said this, and then walked in one direction of the road without looking back. Seeing Adele's appearance, several guards looked at each other, and then quietly followed her.
In this way, Adele walked in front, and several guards followed behind, and behind them were a large group of reporters and fans. The guards followed very closely, as if they did not want Adele to leave their sight for a moment.
'These guys...are really following me closely.' Adele thought to herself as she walked, feeling the sound of the wind behind her. While thinking, she also cast her eyes to every corner of the sidewalks on both sides and the tall buildings. In those places, Adele felt many unfriendly desires directed at her.
'It seems that the guys staring at me are not just the ones behind me. There are even more people hiding in the dark. With so many people, if there are more of them, I won't be able to deal with them. Sure enough, the little detective is right. We can't force it now...
"Now... we need to find some opportunities..."
Adele thought about this in her heart, and then she walked slowly on the street, not rushing or slowing down in the direction of the branch venue, while the people who were watching her in the light and in the dark followed her patiently. Anyway, for this group of people, their purpose was not to send Adele to her destination, but to prevent her from getting away to the main venue.
It was very difficult for Adele to escape from them without resorting to violence, but she was not in a hurry now. She was looking for an opportunity while walking leisurely, and soon, this opportunity appeared in front of Adele.
After turning a corner, Adele saw a large group of pedestrians watching the ceremonial parade at a busy intersection.
Looking at this large group of people, Adele couldn't help but have an idea, and then someone immediately discovered Adele's presence.
"Ah! Look, isn't that Adele?"
"What... Tivian Adele?"
"It's really Miss Buzzard, just as beautiful as in the poster!"
When the first person recognized Adele and called out, almost everyone on the street looked in Adele's direction at the same time, and then the street was completely boiling. The huge crowd on the street shouted Adele's various names and rushed over here frantically. The huge crowd surrounded Adele completely in an instant, making the guards behind them unable to see Adele's figure all of a sudden. Walls of people formed between the guards and Adele, completely isolating them.
Faced with this situation, the guards tried to disperse the crowd, but the crowd became more and more fanatical and gathered, making it almost impossible for them to disperse the crowd. Due to their current identities, they did not want to use force against the civilians to disperse them.
"We can't see her anymore, what should we do now?"
Looking at the large crowd in front of him, a guard said to the chief guard beside him, and the eight-pointed chief guard sneered and said.
"You want to escape our pursuit in this way? That's a bit disrespectful, Miss Buzz." The captain of the guard said this. Now he had more than one way to lock Adele in this chaos.
He was confident that he was well prepared, and with them, Adele would not be able to get to the main venue to dance her dance!
