The Devil is Lurking By Your Side - Chapter 138

Just after the magic show was over, a few performers who came out to perform acrobatics appeared again, which was the end of the show tonight.

Lin Xin and others clapped their hands again after watching the performance. This time, Leng Yu also clapped with everyone, until the host again came out and confessed a few words of thanks and support, the audience got up from their chairs, and then left the park and walked home.

Leng Yu took Lin Xin’s hand and looked around, but didn’t see the figure of his nephew Xiaojun, until they walked out of the park, they saw him leaving from a distance.

“Xiaojun is right in front, let’s go over.” Leng Yu said, and then led Lin Xin to stride over.

Unexpectedly, just 100 meters away from Xiaojun, I saw him stop suddenly, and then vaguely heard him and his friend say: “You go back first.”

Leng Yu frowned, not knowing what tricks he was going to play, as if he didn’t want to go home immediately, so he walked forward and patted him on the back, but he started to jump with fright.

When Xiaojun looked back and saw that it was an aunt who was patting himself, he cried out in a fuss, “Oh! Auntie, if you want to scare me to death, it’s not like that. Look, my heart is about to jump out of my heart. !”

Leng Yu looked at his exaggerated behavior, with coldness between his eyebrows and eyes, and said coldly: “If you don’t do anything wrong, you don’t need to be so exaggerated. Go, go home!”

“Uh…” Xiaojun looked at Auntie’s expression, swallowed, then stretched out his hand and scratched his head, before he faltered: “Auntie, I… I still have something to do, you guys. You and Sister Lin will go back first, and I will go back after some things have been done.”

“It’s so late, what else do you have?” When Leng Yu saw him showing this expression, he became suspicious and couldn’t help asking.

“Auntie, it’s a trivial matter anyway, you should go home first, I’ll be home in a while.” Xiaojun said, but refused to reveal what he wanted to do.

Leng Yu knew that Xiaojun was naughty, but he never lied to them, so he slowed down and said, “If you don’t go home, your mother should be worried. Let’s go and go back with us.”

“Auntie, I will deal with something first…” Xiaojun said, but never said what it was.

“Well, you go to deal with it, we are here to wait for you, and give you 5 minutes.” Leng Yu still didn’t follow, and said coldly. Although she often quarrels with her nephew and fights wits and courage, she still cares about his safety.

“Auntie, you should go back first. I’m really just dealing with some small things, don’t wait for me.” Xiaojun still begged, hoping that Leng Yu could ignore his business.

“Xiaojun, do you want to go to the backstage of the stage to find someone?” Leng Yu suddenly shifted the front and asked.

However, because of her words, Xiaojun was stunned. He murmured: “Auntie, why are you so scary? Why did you get it right?”

“Let’s go, let’s go with you, who do you want to find?” Leng Yu said, and then took Lin Xin’s hand, past Xiaojun, and walked towards the backstage of the stage.

Seeing that Leng Yu had gone far, Xiaojun felt helpless, and immediately followed their footsteps.

“Auntie, I’m looking for my classmate Xiaokai. He worked as a temporary worker here, and he was the performer of the last magic show.” Xiaojun said, but didn’t say what he thought of when he was watching the performance.

“Well, it’s okay to find him,” Leng Yu said.

There seemed to be a mystery in her words, and Lin Xin looked at her curiously after listening.

Leng Yu noticed the look in Lin Xin’s eyes and stretched out her hand to gently draw a small circle on her palm, motioning for a while and telling her what she thought.

Xiaojun didn’t understand the meaning of Leng Yu’s words. Following Leng Yu’s back, he slowly touched the backstage.

However, as they approached the backstage, Xiao Kai just appeared. After seeing Xiaojun, he rushed over quickly and asked: “Xiaojun, why are you here? Waiting for me on purpose? Haha!”

“Fuck you! Who said I was waiting for you?” Xiaojun said grimly.

“Did not wait for me, what are you doing here?” Xiao Kai asked, with a smile on his face.

Xiaojun glanced at Leng Yu, and then at Xiaokai, then he pulled him aside, touched and looked at him with his hand, and after looking up and down for a while, he said to him: “When can you go home?”

“Am I? I haven’t come home so soon. I’m waiting for the boss, and I’ll get my salary later.” Xiao Kai glanced at the backstage and said to Xiaojun.

“Well, I see. If you get home, give me a message.” Xiaojun patted Xiaokai on the shoulder, then turned and left.

“Xiaojun, I feel like you have become my mother, hahaha!” Xiaokai laughed at him behind him. After seeing Xiaojun turning his head and making a fist gesture, he pointed to the backstage and shouted again: ” I’ll go there first, and I will go home when I receive my salary!”

After hearing this, Xiaojun didn’t agree to him. He walked to Leng Yu’s side and said, “Auntie, let’s go.”

Leng Yu watched indifferently, guessing Xiaojun’s mind and his actions just now, but didn’t pierce him, but just nodded and gave an “um”.

The three followed the others and walked home slowly. In an instant, the noisy park became extremely quiet at this moment, and only the backstage staff and the rest of the performers were packing their things and preparing to return to the hotel.

After Xiaojun and others arrived at the door of the house, Leng Yu said to him: “You go in first, I have something to say to your sister Lin.”

“Okay, I’ll go back first.” After Xiaojun agreed, he turned to open the door and walked into the house, unexpectedly saying something naughty to Leng Yu.

“Leng Yu, Xiao Jun is a little different tonight.” Lin Xin looked up at Xiao Jun who closed the door and said to Leng Yu.

“Well, he has the same idea as me.” Leng Yu said in a deep voice, with something wrong in his tone.

“What’s the matter?” Lin Xin asked curiously.

Yes, let alone Xiaojun, even Leng Yu tonight behaved abnormally.

“Do you remember the blood stains on the samurai sword I just told you?” Leng Yu asked, with cold eyes in his eyes.

“Remember, what’s the matter? Did Xiaojun also think that the blood stains… is real blood stains?” When Lin Xin said this, she was a little unsure, and at the same time a little bit of fear arose in her heart.

“Yes. That’s why he deliberately went to Xiaokai just now to make sure that he was not injured before returning home. He and I have the same suspicions… Alas… I hope we are more concerned.” Leng Yu sighed and said.

“Leng Yu, that was just a magic show. Besides, you see Xiaokai is fine, so it should be fine.” Lin Xin frowned and said.

In fact, since Leng Yu said this, she has also vaguely felt wrong. However, Xiao Kai is all right, so the blood stains on the samurai sword must be fake, or else it is the blood stains of the used animals?

animal. .

“Leng Yu, do you suspect that they used animal blood?” Lin Xin asked.

“Yes, I am so suspicious.” Leng Yu said.

After a pause, she said again: “In order to make the performance look more realistic, they might actually use animal blood, but…”

“That’s cruel.” Lin Xin said without waiting for Leng Yu to finish.

“Yes, it was cruel. Moreover, the magic show lasted for two weeks, and I don’t know how much blood should be used. I just hope that it’s not true. I’m overwhelmed with everything.” Leng Yu nodded and said.

After talking for a while, the two said goodbye to each other when it was getting late, and then they went back to their own homes.

So, is the blood on the samurai sword real?

***

In the backstage, a man in a clown costume removed his makeup, then came to another man, and then reached out to him and said, “Great magician, lend me some money.”

I saw the magician glance at him, then took a few puffs of cigarettes, stood up, walked to the other side, continued to smoke, and didn’t want to ignore him at all.

The man playing the clown saw him doing this, so he walked up to him again and said: “In the whole show, only you earn more than us. I’m starving to death, lend me some money to eat. “

The man glanced at him, and said disapprovingly: “Didn’t Boss Peng hand out lunch boxes to everyone? You still haven’t eaten enough?”

When another acrobatic stunt heard the voice of the two of them, he smiled and walked to the side of the clown actor, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled: “Chen Zhixian, just let Jiang Ge, he There are also wives and children to raise. You, take other people’s money to go gambling, and every time we appear on the show, Mr. Peng will give us a boxed lunch. The more you eat, the fatter you get, and your belly is exposed. Come out, how can it be possible to starve to death? Hahaha!”

“You Zhong, this is wrong with you. The belly of my clown is not for entertaining the public? Wouldn’t I eat so fat because of the audience?” Chen Zhixian said angrily.

Then, he looked at the man named Jiang Ge and asked: “Jiang Brother, you said I was right?”

“Get off.” After Jiang Gebai gave him a glance, he walked back to the previous position, sat down, and continued to smoke, without even looking at Chen Zhixian.

This Chen Zhixian is a good gambler, always borrowing money from himself, and then not repaying it. This time it is still the case, Jiang Ge is really intolerable, so this time he is determined no matter what, and does not want to lend him.

Seeing him like this, Chen Zhixian walked up to Brother Jiang again, knelt down, and suddenly said to him: “Brother Jiang, your magic show just now won applause from a lot of audiences. I think it will be in the next few days. Attract a large number of spectators to watch. At that time, you will gradually become famous, should you consider participating in some larger and more decent magic shows? If you want to change the runway, remember to tell me, I will follow you Every time we can only attract audiences from towns and villages, and we don’t save much money, it’s time for a change.”

After taking a look at Chen Zhixian, Brother Jiang threw the cigarette **** aside, sat up straight, stared at him firmly, raised his eyebrows and asked, “You still want to leave?”

“Of course. Think about it. I don’t have enough money. I want to try to leave.” Chen Zhixian said.

Brother Jiang just gave an “um”, and then said indifferently: “My deceptive trick can at least deceive the ignorant villagers. If you go to a big city, it may not be so easy…”

After he finished speaking, he leaned back in his chair, then narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
