254 Increase the Difficulty

“To make us happy? To satisfy our viewing needs?” Xiaomi replied, a little confused.

“No.” The male student stretched out a finger and shook it gently.

“You’ve only scratched the surface. The most fundamental purpose is to make money. Otherwise, for such a large circus, without a stable source of income, not to mention animals, even people will starve to death.” After hearing the boy’s explanation, Xiaomi nodded thoughtfully.

“That’s why they won’t refuse.” The male student concluded and looked at the stage again.

Chu Ning also looked toward the stage.

A crocodile that was more than four meters long actually slowly climbed up the stage under the guidance of the trainer. This undoubtedly made the audience below the stage exclaim in surprise. The elephant and the tiger also walked up to the stage one after another, ready to go.

“Could it be…?” Chu Ning looked at the scene in front of her. She was not in the mood to watch the performance. She was wondering if the disaster had something to do with the scene before her.

However, after a few seconds, Chu Ning rejected this speculation.

Although the scene in front of her was dangerous, it was still within control. Even if there was danger, there would not be any large-scale casualties. Most importantly, this did not overlap with the memory fragments in her mind. The sun was still shining brightly, and the timing and specific location of the accident were not here.

“When will it be? What time?” Chu Ning knew that as time went by, the danger would only get closer, but she had to seize the opportunity, and there was only one chance!

“I can’t be anxious. I can’t be anxious.” Chu Ning tried her best to calm down, but her tightly clenched hands were already sweating.

“You seem to have something on your mind?” Yan Shen suddenly appeared beside Chu Ning and said.

“Yes.” Chu Ning nodded.

Then, she took out her phone and sent a message. Yan Shen’s phone rang in his pocket. He glanced at Chu Ning but didn’t ask why. The two intelligent people had a tacit understanding. Chu Ning must have her reasons for doing this, important reasons.

Yan Shen took out his phone. After reading Chu Ning’s message in a few seconds, the smile on his face disappeared.

He then looked at Chu Ning.

“Are you sure?” Yan Shen asked softly.

Chu Ning didn’t answer him and merely nodded.

“Alright,” he said. After Yan Shen said that, he looked at the performance on the stage with a very focused expression.

It was as though the earlier conversation and scene had not happened.

As the performance began, more and more audience members gathered below the stage, and the cheers continued. The trainer withstood the pressure and comforted the elephant to overcome its fear, allowing the tiger to successfully jump onto the elephant’s back. The crocodile slowly opened its mouth, and under the nervous and expectant gaze of the audience, a man squatted down and put his head into the crocodile’s mouth.

The elephant finished walking on the balance beam, and a minute later, the man also slowly left the abyss of the crocodile’s mouth. He was fine.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the female internet celebrity’s live broadcast room once again reached a climax. Perhaps it was because they couldn’t be there in person, the visual effect wasn’t very shocking. In fact, the audience in the live broadcast room was almost worried for the man who put his head into the crocodile’s mouth. After all, it was a real crocodile that was more than four meters long.

However, some people in the female internet celebrity’s live broadcast room raised doubts. They suspected that the crocodile was a model. In their eyes, the visual effect of the cooperation between a tiger and an elephant was just so-so, and it was far from being able to see it with their own eyes.

Seeing that there were more and more doubts in the discussion and her popularity was also increasing, the female internet celebrity suddenly said, “Since you don’t believe me, then let’s put forward more challenging requirements, okay?”

Soon, her two staff members went to look for the circus manager again.

“Boss, ask your staff to perform some more challenging moves, such as the tiger on the elephant’s back performing some tricks, letting the crocodile burst a few balls with its bite, and then ask someone to put their head in. Don’t worry, the sum can be increased.” One of the female internet celebrity staff members said condescendingly.

“It’s not a matter of money. It’s also very dangerous when the difficulty is increased. Both people and animals need to rest. Why don’t we get other animals to perform? This way…” Before the circus manager could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the staff.
