It went quite smoothly indeed.
Cheng Shi and Zhen Xin, who were lying on the roof, were still eavesdropping on the conversation in the office. The two people inside had no idea that there were two scammers squatting above their heads.
Lake was a clown actor who wasn't very tall. He was fully made up at the moment and showed no apology for his disappearance. No matter how Captain Fate roared, he just kept saying one thing:
"As long as I'm here, Ximu will definitely win."
This sentence seemed to reassure Fate, and he gradually calmed down from his rage. He pulled a chair over and sat in front of Lake, staring at him straight in the eye, and asked word by word:
“What have you been through recently?
Did he sneak out and find a new idea, or did he figure out the opponent's routine and think of a way to defeat Maxford?
You definitely didn't run away after the seclusion, right?
When you said you wanted to go into seclusion, I realized that you didn’t want to go into seclusion at all, but to go out!
I thought you just wanted to relax and relieve your tension, but who knew you would be out for so long!
Tell me, Lake, what is your new idea? I can help you review it. Do you still think I will leak it?
In this world, no one wants Ximu to win more than I do! "
Even on the roof, Cheng Shi could sense Captain Fate's urgency. However, Lake maintained his indifferent attitude. He patted the captain's arm and said with a smile:
"You should relax, trust me, we will win.
As for the rest, keep it confidential.
Captain, I'm not afraid that you will leak the secret, but I want to give you a surprise.
You are too tired and your nerves are too tense. You need a good rest.
Let this farewell performance lead us to victory, and also serve as an "award" to thank you for your contributions to Ximu over the years.
Believe me, I won’t let you down.”
Fate was persuaded. He looked at Lake and stammered for a long time, which finally turned into a sigh.
He held Lake's hand tightly and nodded heavily:
"Okay, I believe you, and I can only believe you.
But don't disappear again, we don't have that much time to waste.
Come to the meeting here tonight at 6 o'clock. I will notify all the performers and prepare your connecting words.
Also, when would you like to schedule your own performance?"
"Press the stage."
"Showdown?" Captain Fate's voice instantly rose several notches. He stood up and said in disbelief, "You're a clown. What kind of performance could make a clown's show the showdown?
David's new magic trick is amazing, and unless you perform it for me right now, I can't risk putting you last."
Lake didn't insist. He thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Then the finale is fine."
"you......"
Seeing that this pillar of the team insisted on playing secrets with him before the final showdown, Captain Fate's face changed several times, but he finally chose to trust his old friend.
"I'll talk to the animal trainer and put his performance at the front. Lake, I hope your new idea is worthy of the name of Ximu."
With that, Captain Fate pushed the door open and left.
And the moment Fate left, Lake also slipped out of the back door and went straight back to his tent in the rest area.
His tent is in a corner far away from the rest area. It has its own entrance and is quiet enough. This arrangement is probably to allow the clown to have a good rest environment.
In addition, most of the actors were working and performing in the park at this time, and the rest area was sparsely populated, which saved the two trackers a lot of trouble.
As soon as Lake entered the room, he walked towards the bed with a clear purpose, and then took out a long row of needles and daggers from under the bed!
Cheng Shi was very familiar with this prop. In the civilized era, killers in many cities would use these most basic weapons to assassinate their targets.
Cheng Shi had also used them, but later he felt that these things were too obvious, so he eliminated them and replaced them with something more colorless, odorless, and invisible.
But what does a clown do with these assassination props?
Cheng Shi and Zhen Xin were stunned for a moment, and then they understood what Lake meant by "Must win at dusk".
Good man, it looks like you are trying to play dirty, right?
During the few days you disappeared, could it be that you went to the east of the city to scout the area?
If Lake's so-called victory is to assassinate Chenxi's clown, then the so-called ending of this trial should be to stop Lake so that Chenxi Circus can have a perfect ending, while Ximu loses his own honor and welcomes the new king to the throne?
For a moment, the two scammers were a little confused.
But they were not confused about one thing, that is, no matter what the outcome was, as long as they controlled the clown in front of them first, they could learn the true plan from him.
Once you know the plan, you can guess how the whole thing will develop.
So the two of them took decisive action, no longer hiding their bodies, and instantly appeared behind the clown. While Lake was still sorting out his equipment, they pinned him down without saying a word.
Just as Cheng Shi was about to tell the other party to stop struggling, something strange happened!
Just when Cheng and the other man were holding each other's shoulders, Lake, the person involved, suddenly disappeared!
That’s right, it just disappeared right under the noses of the two players!
Cheng Shi's eyes fixed, and Zhen Xin's expression changed slightly.
This was not because they were tricked, but because they saw through the other party's methods. This was not an ability that a circus clown could have. This was clearly the illusion of a master of tricks!
Lake is actually a master of trickery?
Of course not!
He is the clown in the circus, but the problem is that it is not certain whether the Lake in front of Cheng Shi and the others is the real Lake.
