Chapter 228: A Good Show
As he spoke, he cursed at Matthew and the other man,
“Get lost! You annoying flies! Don’t stay at the back door of the theatre, or I’ll call the guards!”
His words were fierce, but he quickly retreated behind the door.
Bang!
The back door was tightly shut.
Only the woman was left crying helplessly against the door.
“Madam, do you need our help?”
Lorraine walked up to her like a gentleman.
Who knew that the woman would glare at him fiercely?
“Mind your own business! If you dare to spread the news about Bran and me, I will make you pay for it!”
With that, she wiped her tears and walked away aggressively.
Matthew watched this scene with interest. This was the first time he had seen Lorraine’s charm fail before a woman.
“That man just now is the main character of tonight’s show, Brandon White, right?” He walked over and asked.
Lorraine still had an indifferent expression on his face.
“That’s right. It seems that this isn’t the first time he’s gotten a girl pregnant.”
Matthew looked at him questioningly. “Is this also the effect of Catching wind and Shadows? Did you just sense that there would be a melodramatic scene here?”
Lorraine waved his hand.
” I don’t need to use that skill. That thing is used to capture big events. For this kind of regional gossip, I have a special ability called Alley Gossip.
“As soon as I get close to an area where something similar might happen, I can smell it. ”
The more Matthew listened, the more he felt that something was wrong.
“Are you sure you’re a real bard?”
Lorraine blinked.
“Everyone has their own secrets, Matthew. If you can be called a necromancer, why can’t I be a bard?
“Let’s go. It’s almost time to enter.”
The two of them left the alley and returned to the main road. Not long after, they arrived at the main entrance of the theatre.
At this moment, the square was filled with all kinds of carriages.
From time to time, men and women dressed fashionably and elegantly walked out of the car, arm in arm with each other.
The servants handed over the tickets that they had bought. After a simple inspection, the people from the theatre would naturally come over to lead them in.
It was Matthew’s turn.
Lorraine handed the tickets over.
The other party revealed a very standard bright smile, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
“Hello, there’s no problem with your ticket. You can choose to go to the private room on the second floor or watch our performance up close in the first row on the first floor.” Lawrence said with a smile.
Lorraine replied with the same bright smile, ‘We’re not going to the private room. We’ll sit in the first row.”
“Alright, sir. I’ll arrange for you immediately.” Lawrence shouted into the theatre.
Not long after, a burly female worker came over to lead the way.
Lawrence returned the ticket to Lorraine.
“Thank you for your support for the Southern Theater. I hope you have a wonderful night.”
He said the same thing to Matthew.
Matthew nodded politely.
As the two of them passed by each other, he suddenly noticed that there was an unnatural red on the tip of the other party’s nose.
” Actually, there are a lot of strange theories in Marsh City. Other than the fact that it’s safer to go out after dark, there’s also the saying that the employees of the Southern Theater won’t get sick.”
In the first row, Lorraine stretched comfortably and chatted with Matthew.
“But the child just now obviously fainted from a fever, so this theory was false.”
Matthew replied,
“When I walked in, I heard a lot of people discussing this matter. Several people swore that the theatre staff had never fallen ill before. If what they said was true, then the waiter who just fainted was the first person to fall ill in the theatre.”
“Is that so?” Lorraine seemed to have discovered something and became spirited.
“Does this mean that something special will happen tonight?”
Matthew looked at him playfully. “Shouldn’t I ask you? You’re the one with
Alley Gossip and Catching Wind and Shadows.”
Lorraine shrugged.
” Using my ability frequently will make me lose a lot of fun in life. Tonight, I just want to be an ordinary spectator.”
Matthew smiled and said nothing more.
The people in the theatre arrived one after another.
The warm-up program had already begun on the stage.
A good show.
It was about to start.
