Chapter 15 The Magic Show

Why did Mia choose two dresses for Xu Mo instead of buying one for herself after Ya'er finished picking out the dress.

Although Mia paid secretly, she did not hide it from Xu Mo. He and Yao'er spent a total of 145 federal coins on two pieces of clothing, which was a very large sum even for Mia. After spending, Xu Mo could feel that Mia felt a little distressed when she paid, but she still didn't hesitate, but she herself was reluctant to buy it.

After shopping for clothes, the group continued on their way.

In the carriage, Elsa looked disgusted when she saw Mia's happy appearance along the way.

"Elsa, is that the Grand Theater of the City State? Have you ever been there?" Mia pointed to a building in the distance.

"I've been there." Elsa said angrily, without the enthusiasm she had before, she was very angry. During the trip to Xiangshe Street, Mia didn't buy anything for herself, but spent a lot for the servants.

But this is Mia's private matter, and she can't say anything, but her mind can't understand Mia's behavior.

"I heard that a ticket costs tens of federal dollars. If you have the opportunity, you must go and see it." Mia said with some yearning, Elsa was even more depressed when she heard her words, and said displeasedly: "You have already spent a lot of money just now. There are a few tickets."

"That's different." Mia said with a smile. Although she was a little distressed, she was still happy.

Xu Mo thought to himself, if Mia was born in his previous life, she would be a foolish and giving type of love brain when she fell in love, and it would be easy to suffer.

In fact, like Elsa, he does not agree with Mia's behavior, but in this savage underground world, this "kindness" is precious.

"Miss Mia, what's that place?" Xu Mo looked in the distance. There was a huge circular building there, and he needed to walk up high steps. Even if he was far away, he could still see its magnificent outline.

"It's the very center of the main city, the arena." Mia responded, "However, I don't like it."

"I don't like it either, but it's the most popular place in the main city." Elsa also looked over there and said.

"Arena." Xu Mo whispered, is it similar to the previous world ball games?

The carriage passed a square and entered another street. This street was slightly narrower, but there was an endless stream of vehicles and pedestrians.

"There are a lot of people there." Mia looked towards a place next to the street ahead. A group of people surrounded the road and almost blocked the road. It might be inconvenient for a carriage to go there.

"Cooper, slow down." Elsa said to the driver, while she stood up and looked into the crowd.

"Look, Mia, it's a magician's performance." Elsa said with some surprise.

"Really?" Mia stood up with Yao'er in her arms. Even at this age, she was curious about magical magic.

"Xu Mo, it's really a magic show, you should watch it too." Mia lowered her head to Xu Mo.

Xu Mo was not very interested. He knew that magic was just a trick to cover the eyes. When you see extremely mysterious magic performances, the moment the mystery is revealed will make you feel that your IQ has been insulted.

However, Xu Mo stood up and looked into the crowd, and saw a small performance venue surrounded by the crowd, which was extended from the pavement next to the street. Cheers.

"Brother, how can he breathe fire?" Yao'er shouted excitedly.

Xu Mo saw that the other party took a sip of water before spraying the fire and then sprayed it into the air. It should be a liquid similar to alcohol. As for the flame... Xu Mo felt it carefully, and his face showed a strange color.

"energy!"

He keenly sensed a weak energy, which he often felt when he practiced the breathing method, but that energy seemed very weak, but it was enough to generate a flame, and with the addition of a liquid similar to alcohol, a fire-breathing appeared of magic.

"How did you do that?" Mia asked in surprise.

The carriage came to the periphery of the crowd, the magician's assistant moved a big box and put it on the ground, a girl lay down in it, and then locked the box.

Xu Mo looked at the magician. He was wearing a mask and didn't speak. He was always performing with his body movements. Even his assistants were wearing masks.

After a while, when the box was opened again, it was empty, and the crowd immediately burst into applause.

The magician raised his finger and pointed upwards. The crowd looked up and saw the girl from above waving to everyone.

"It's amazing." Elsa exclaimed, and Mia and Yao'er also applauded happily.

Xu Mo saw through the face under the mask of the other party. The same mask, clothing, and even figure were similar, but it was not the same face under the mask.

Not alone!

He knew that this kind of magic was transferred through secret tunnels, but the opponent directly used a substitute, which was considered an incomplete magic, but even so, there must be secret tunnels hidden under the box, so that the girl who entered the box fell down, but Xu Mo's eyes still had no way of penetrating the mechanism's secret passage.

A magician's assistant faced the crowd and said, "Mr. Magician would like to invite a few children to experience the magic show for themselves. Is there any child who would like to experience the magical magic?"

There are many parents with children in the crowd, and some are eager to try.

"Mom, I want to go." A little girl said.

"I'm going too." Someone started one after another, and then several children were sent up the steps.

"Is there anyone else? We can be divided into several groups." The magician assistant continued. He glanced at the crowd and saw Yao'er in Mia's hands. He smiled and bowed: "Beautiful lady, may I ask this Is the little princess willing to experience it?"

"Ah..." Mia froze for a moment, hesitated, and Yao'er also wanted to go, but Xu Mo's expression was extremely serious at the moment.

"No." Xu Mo said bluntly. At this time, he felt a little cool on his body. The smile under the mask of the other party looked a little hideous. He had a knife hidden on his body. In addition, he used a double in the previous magic show, so he obviously fell into the mechanism. It is impossible to come out from above if it is a secret passage, otherwise there is no need to use a substitute.

Therefore, the secret passage will lead to other places, which means that once people enter, they may not be able to come back!

Mia was taken aback when she heard Xu Mo's serious words, then shook her head and refused, "No, thank you."

The other party saluted with his hands on his chest, and glanced at Xu Mo, the eyes under the mask were cold, and then ignored this side, but carried the participating children into the box.

Xu Mo stared there, his eyes changed, his perception was released to the strongest level, and he was extremely serious. These people may be criminal gangs, and they used magic performances to attract people to take the initiative.

"Xu Mo, what's wrong with you?" Mia asked Xu Mo.

"Miss Mia, just now I noticed that the woman who entered the box had different nail lengths from the woman who appeared above." Xu Mo said, "That's a substitute."

Mia was a little surprised: "What about her?"

"There should be secret tunnels hidden under the box and under the floor, and people fell through." Xu Mo continued.

"Then what is their intention of letting the children participate?" Mia asked puzzled.

Xu Mo looked back at Mia, and said, "I've heard stories about kidnapping children through magic shows before. These people are all wearing masks, and no one knows who they are."

"Ah..." Mia exclaimed, with an anxious look on her face: "Then what should I do?"

Their conversation was drowned out by the noise around them, and no one else heard them.

"What nonsense are you talking about? This is the main city of the underground world. There are law enforcement teams patrolling everywhere. The law and order are very good. Do you think it's in the black market?" Elsa scolded, obviously she thought that Xu Mo went to the black market too much. like random speculation.

Xu Mo glanced at Elsa with a blank expression on his face. Seeing his eyes, Elsa was a little angry, looked at the stage and said: "The performance has begun, you wait to see clearly."

Xu Mo also stared at the magician, ignoring Elsa. He has experienced real magicism many times, let alone this underground world.

The box prepared for the magic show was huge, and several children got into the box excitedly at the same time. They laughed extraordinarily happily when they entered, as if they were looking forward to what would happen.

Xu Mo looked at the smiling faces, they didn't know what they were going to face, and there was nothing he could do now, Elsa wouldn't believe him, and neither would other strangers.

The moment the box closed, Xu Mo's heart skipped a beat.

The magician started an exaggerated performance. At this moment, the bottom of the box opened, and a hidden compartment appeared on the ground. Xu Mo heard the low exclamation of the child, but there was no sound for a moment.

"There are people below. It's a mechanism activated from the ground." Xu Mo stared at the magician. When the box was opened, it was empty and everyone had disappeared.

The crowd looked up, but there was no one there.

"Next, we will appear with the children. Please witness the magic together." The magician's assistant opened the box and prepared to go in with the magician. The surrounding crowd cheered enthusiastically, and even Elsa seemed a little excited , seems to be looking forward to the next miracle.

Xu Mo's face changed, it was time to evacuate.

"Time is running out!"

Seeing that the box had been opened, Xu Mo shouted, "A bunch of liars, the women who entered the box had different nail lengths than those upstairs, they were not alone at all."

Xu Mo's voice was loud, and many people around looked at him, even Mia and Elsa looked at Xu Mo in front of him, what was he going to do?

"You read it wrong." The magician's assistant glanced at Xu Mo, then ignored it, and continued to walk towards the box, and the people around were also indifferent.

"I guess there is a mechanism under the box. Be careful, they are trying to abduct and sell children." Seeing this, Xu Mo continued, and the people around immediately whispered. Participate, the child will be returned to me."

The crowd started to be a little commotion, the faces of the magician and his party under the masks were extremely ugly, it was very difficult for them to leave after being exposed.

"You don't need to listen to this kid's nonsense, after the magic show is over, they will naturally appear on it." The magician's assistant said controlling his emotions.

"No, I want to see my baby right now."

"That's right, magician, let them appear."

How could they not worry about their children's safety? Even if Xu Mo was talking nonsense, they still wanted to see the result.

"Everyone, please go down first." The magician's assistant pushed forward.

"What are you doing?"

"Could it be that what he said is true? Magician, hurry up and hand him over." There was also a voice shouting from below. Everyone hated child abduction and trafficking.

"That's right, hand over people quickly." The crowd has become chaotic, moving in an uncontrollable direction.

Seeing people crowding over, the magician waved his palm, 'Boom', a wave of heat hit, and the flames drove people back. One person even burned his hair, and hurriedly extinguished it with his hands.

"Grab them," someone yelled, and the children's parents rushed forward frantically.

"Be careful." Xu Mo shouted, and saw a short knife appear in the hand of the magician who spoke before, and it directly pierced a person's abdomen. There was a scream, and everyone retreated in fright.

"Killed, please notify the law enforcement team." There was chaos.

Mia and Elsa were also frightened. They saw Mia sitting on the carriage with her son's head in her arms, and the people around were running in a panic, which made the horse tremble restlessly.

Xu Mo stared there, released his mental power, and stared forward. When the magician was caught, he spewed out a mouthful of flames and forced them back, but the child's parents still rushed forward.

The magician spilled the liquid again, and the flames ignited, but at this time the flames rushed towards him uncontrollably, and the flames were even fiercer.

A terrifying wave of flames swallowed him. He screamed and howled in pain. His companions fled behind after seeing him, but did not try to save him. The fire grew bigger and bigger, killing the magician. His body was wrapped around him, causing him to roll all over the ground, which was very miserable.

"Small the floor." Xu Mo shouted again after controlling the flames. The child's parents had already lifted up the box. Hearing Xu Mo remind them to smash the box against the ground, the bottom was hollow and was smashed quickly Make a hole.

Xu Mo's perception invaded in an instant, and the people below seemed to know that something had happened above, and began to escape from the passage.

Parents of children jumped directly into the passage, shouting their children's names loudly.

Seeing this scene, Xu Mo felt relieved, but at this moment, the magician's assistant with the knife rushed towards him, and the crowd in the middle ran away wildly.

"Xu Mo!" Mia yelled in shock, Xu Mo stared at the opponent, dodged sideways when the opponent stabbed with a knife, stood on the carriage and kicked the opponent back, at the same time the coachman Ku Bai Fei kicked out, kicked the opponent directly on the head and kicked the opponent to the ground, but he did not walk away, but protected in front of Elsa.

The other party got up, turned and fled here.

Elsa and Mia haven't recovered yet, they just feel terrified.

"Miss Elsa, the law enforcement team should be able to come over to control the situation soon, right?" Xu Mo asked Elsa.

"Ah?" Elsa was stunned for a moment, looking at Xu Mo with complicated eyes. Just now she said that Xu Mo was talking nonsense, but she didn't expect that it was really a human trafficker. If it wasn't for Xu Mo, the other party would have succeeded.

"Well, there are more patrols in the main city area, and the law and order is relatively better. They should come over soon when they find out about the situation." Elsa nodded and said, "I didn't expect someone to commit such a blatant crime, it's too abominable." .”

"Then they shouldn't be able to escape, let's go first." Xu Mo said, he can only do this, after all, it's not convenient to do it.

The crowd here has dispersed, the carriage can pass, and the coachman Cooper continues to move forward with the carriage.

"Xu Mo, you are too courageous."

As the carriage left the scene of the incident, Mia said with a little fear that nothing happened, but if it was her, she would do the same.

In addition to being frightened, there are also surprises. Xu Mo is really brave.

Elsa also looked at Xu Mo with complicated eyes.

"I misunderstood you just now." Elsa said to Xu Mo, but it was only a few simple words, and she did not apologize. For her, it is still difficult to apologize to a servant, and it is very sad. In this level, although she also admired Xu Mo's bravery.

Xu Mo turned around and asked, "Did Miss Elsa speak to me?"

"En." Elsa nodded, but turned her gaze away to look elsewhere.

"It's okay." Xu Mo said indifferently, and didn't expect Elsa to let go of her noble self-esteem.

No one in the carriage spoke, and fell into a brief silence. Turning a street, the surrounding gradually opened up, and there was a splendid building in front of it. Elsa looked over there and whispered, "Here we are."

The carriage drove into the church area.

The pure white building symbolizes purity and immaculateness. There are white doves on the building. There are crisp music coming from inside, which makes people feel peaceful. Apart from them, there are many vehicles passing by.

"Elsa." I saw a figure stepping down from another carriage and shouted towards this side.

"Susie." Elsa saw the other party beckoning, and introduced to Mia: "That's Susie, she shared the Valley of the Wind with her friends at a concert."

"En." Mia responded, looked at Susie and nodded with a smile.

Susie also saw her, but she just took a look and then looked away without communicating.

A group of people parked their vehicles in front of the church. Xu Mo seemed to remember something. He said to Mia: "Miss Mia, you go in first, I'll go back and have a look."

"Where are you going?" Mia was a little nervous when she heard Xu Mo's words.

"Miss Mia, don't worry, I'm just going to see if those people have been caught by the law enforcement team." Xu Mo said: "I will be careful."

Mia hesitated when she heard Xu Mo's words, but finally nodded and said: "Then don't stand out like before, just leave it to the law enforcement team."

"I know." Xu Mo nodded, then said goodbye to Mia, turned and left.

He felt something was wrong. If the law and order were really good, how dare those people blatantly use magic to commit crimes.

He didn't trust the law enforcement team at all.
