December 1st, early in the morning.

The Hydra Palace area of ​​the imperial capital is only one mile away from the core area of ​​Hydra Palace. An old four-wheeled carriage drove out of the back door of the Embassy of the Ice Sea Kingdom in Durham, briskly passing through the streets.

The municipal department of the imperial capital is very diligent. Early in the morning, they organized a large number of workers and volunteers to shovel snow on the streets.

The thick snow was transported away by trucks, and a thin layer of sea salt particles was sprinkled on the newly cleared streets. The wooden shovel rubbed against the road surface, making a crisp sound.

The carriage drove all the way, from the east of Hydra Palace, all the way to the south.

In the howling of the cold wind, an iron shield-shaped sign was swaying from side to side in the wind. On the sign several feet in size, a red parrot with gorgeous feathers was also covered with a thin layer of frost, making it more and more wilting.

The Red Parrot Theater, this is a famous folk theater in the imperial capital in the past ten years.

The carriage bypassed the front entrance of the theater and followed an alley to the back entrance. A man wearing a bowler hat, wrapped in a short cloak and holding a cane jumped out of the carriage, opened the back door and walked straight in.

The outside is cold and freezing, but the theater is warm as spring. Metal water pipes are connected to the boiler, and the high-temperature steam easily warms the huge theater, which can accommodate thousands of spectators.

On the stage of the theater, Velenya, wearing a thin long skirt, was singing and rehearsing a new play with a blond man.

More than a dozen screenwriters, directors, costume designers, prop artists and other characters stood on the edge of the stage with serious faces, carefully observing the interpretation of Velenya and the blond man.

Dozens of dancers and supporting actors, etc., who also wore thin clothes, were panting and scattered on the stage. They had just finished a violent group dance, and many of them were sweating profusely, with a trace of fatigue in their eyes.

It is already December, and as the New Year gets closer and closer, the major theaters of the Imperial Capital are about to enter a fierce fire. Every theater is preparing meticulously, every troupe is writing new plays, and countless actors are secretly working hard.

During the New Year’s celebration, a hot new drama is enough to make an unknown little actor famous in one day, become a big star sought after by everyone, and even into the upper class society. Following this, the directors, screenwriters, etc. of the theater troupe can also gain both fame and fortune.

Velenya has a good temperament and beautiful appearance. Her voice is as soft and crisp as a skylark on the prairie, and her singing skills are even stronger. The beautiful singing voice is like a sweet spring water, which is poured into people's hearts and makes people feel inexplicable. To happiness and sweetness.

Compared to Velenya, the blond man she partnered with was weaker in singing.

It's not that his singing skills are bad, but that Velenya's singing skills are so good that when the two sang together, Velenya was obviously better than him.

It feels like a perfect picture with a few dead branches and leaves suddenly added, which makes people feel awkward in my heart.

'Boom bang bang', the original composition of the theater slapped his thigh fiercely with the score, and he gave Velenya a thumbs up: "Venya, perfect, perfect... just what I want Yes, exactly what I want... You are perfect, you can't be better than you."

Crazy complimenting Velenya, the messy-haired composer looked fiercely at the blond man: "But you, Jackson, what the **** are you singing? You ruined my work, you humiliated it. ... asshole..."

The composer made a crazy accusation at the blond man.

The blond man put his pitiful hands on his chest and explained something to the composer in a low voice. The directors, screenwriters and others of the theater troupe on the side also gathered together, discussing something in a low voice.

Velenya took a breath, walked to the edge of the stage, grabbed a water glass and drank two sips of water.

"Veluna." A low cry came from behind the curtain on the side of the stage. Velenya was taken aback for a moment, her eyes quickly swept across the curtain, and then her eyes lit up suddenly.

Briskly like a deer, Velenya ran behind the curtain, then spread her arms and embraced the man standing in the shadow of the curtain warmly: "Teacher, didn't you leave the Durham Empire and go back to the Ice Sea Kingdom? Why did you come here?"

Sherlock, the mentor of Velenya and Joe, the sword-bearer of the Al organization, and the royal special adviser of the Ice Sea Kingdom, Sherlock shook his head and shrugged his shoulders: "Oh, the endless troubles...unlucky!"

Shaking his head, Sherlock looked at the stage: "Are you free? Maybe this time, I need your help."

Velenya frowned and glanced back at the blond man who was being trained on the stage and a group of senior troupe leaders who were seriously discussing something.

With a little ruddy mouth, Velenya said indifferently, "Ah, they might be busy, but to be honest, I'm actually fine... If it weren't for the drag of this blonde stupid, this new drama would treat me In terms of it, there is no difficulty at all."

Slyly squinting her eyes, Velenya laughed and said, "Although it is said, this new drama is very important... What do you say? You need my help? Uh, you know, I recently... have a lot of money on hand. Tight... This new play is going to be staged during the New Year's schedule. If it fails, hey, Northwest Wind will not taste good."

Sherlock took out a thick roll of banknotes and handed it to Velenya. He said solemnly: "Don't worry about costs and subsequent remuneration. This time, it is for the service of the Royal Family of Ice Sea King. The funds are favorable and the remuneration is good.

Sherlock pursed her mouth, and said in a deep voice: "If you can walk away, just walk with me... This time, I may also need to use another apprentice of mine, you should call it a'junior' The power of that bastard."

Velenya had just taken the banknotes quickly and was ready to count them happily. When Sherlock suddenly heard what Sherlock said, she couldn't help but be surprised: "Your other apprentice? My junior? Is he in the imperial capital?"

Sherlock shrugged and sighed: "Yes, he was in the imperial capital... well, when I was in Tulum, I forgot to tell you... Joe of the Rittal family, do you remember? He is me Another disciple of ."

"I didn't expect that he would also come to the imperial capital, and it seems that he has caused a lot of trouble recently. What a restless bastard, but it also happens that since he is in the imperial capital, you are too, then ..."

Velenya widened her eyes and looked at Sherlock with a surprised look: "Joe Jung Witto is your disciple? Is it my junior? Kind Muteste, ah, why didn't you say it earlier? "

Velenya raised the banknote in her hand, kissed lightly, and muttered to herself very intoxicated: "Oh, this is really the only good news I have heard in recent months... Ah, he knows me Is it your disciple?"

Sherlock nodded vigorously: "I forgot to tell you that he is my disciple, but I did tell him that you are my disciple, and I let him take care of you in Tulum Harbor!"

Velenya's smile suddenly stiffened: "This damn, bastard! The last time he saw me, he didn't talk about it... But, accepting his love, he can be regarded as helping me."

Sister Eliza took a few nuns and enthusiastically sent Joe outside the gate of St. Mayan Cathedral.

Sister Eliza looked at Joe lovingly, and said enthusiastically: "Joe, St. Mayan Cathedral is your home... If you encounter any trouble or have any troubles, the door of the cathedral will open to you at any time Turn on."

Qiao solemnly saluted Sister Eliza: "The benevolent Muteste is here, this is a matter of course."

At this moment, Joe was relaxed and extremely happy.

He has been influenced by Liya, Tifa and Weimar since he was a child. The three most important women around him are all believers in Yingui Church. Inevitably, when Joe wants to make some violating oaths, he must first go to the church to confess to Muteste in exchange for psychological comfort.

After repenting, and donating a large amount of incense money, with the permission of "Muteste", Joe can naturally do it.

It cannot be said that Joe is a devout believer, he is just asking for peace of mind.

Joe and Eliza said enthusiastically goodbye, and then, watched by a group of nuns, led a group of people away. It wasn't until Joe and his subordinates turned the corner of the street that they couldn't see their backs at all, that Sister Eliza sighed with sincere emotion.

"Believers as young as Joe Rong Witto, but so pious, are now rare."

"So, inform the sisters in the diocese to remember the name Joe Jong Witto~www.ltnovel.com~ Whenever there is a chance, we will let the glory of our lord lean more on him."

"Believers are all equal, and our lord treats believers equally...but devout believers are bound to get more attention, greater favor, and more glory from our lord."

Joe was riding a horse. Just turning the corner of the street, a four-wheeled carriage drove from across the road. Following the coachman's shout, the carriage went sideways and stopped in front of Joe.

Joe subconsciously held the revolver around his waist, Marcos and Da Ivan pushed open the carriage door and rushed out, one left and the other blocked in front of Joe, while Lan Mujin, Lan Kikyo and others did it silently. Prepared for battle.

The window of the carriage and carriage that was blocking the road moved, revealing half of Sherlock's face: "Joe, it's me. I haven't seen you for a while...well, I need your help!"

Velenya showed half of her pretty face from the car window. She squinted her eyes and greeted Joe enthusiastically: "Master Joe, thank you for helping me at Whispering Forest Club last time... I didn't expect it. You actually know Mr. Sherlock too."

"Ah, ha... Velenya!" Joe rolled his eyes directly.

He knew that Velenya was another disciple of Sherlock, but the last time he met her at the Whispering Forest Club, he didn't even think about it.

In the nest of Valenya in Tulum Harbour, in the secret compartment of the safe, the crystal ball that gave Joe a dangerous aura is still fresh in Joe's memory.

He instinctively didn't want to have too much involvement with Velenya.

But Sherlock in front of him... Joe hesitated, jumped off his horse, opened the door, and swayed his huge body into the carriage: "Go to Grandma's Tavern... Hello, do you know that place?"

The driver of the car responded, shaking his whip, and drove in the direction of Food Street in University Town.
