"Wild Circus?"
When King, wearing glasses, and the girl in yellow arrived at the location locked by the "tracking and positioning" system, the three of them looked at the "building" in front of them in astonishment.
An oversized tent was set up. The tent was colorful and had patches everywhere. The breeze blew and swayed, making people worry whether the tent would be blown away. More importantly, it was hung on the tent door. An old sign with the word "Wilderness Circus" crookedly written on it.
Well, the Wilderness Circus is located in the wilderness on the outskirts of City J. It is sparsely populated and lives up to its name.
"Yes, the clown and the lion are indeed inside."
King said firmly.
The girl in yellow and the glasses were very surprised by the king's affirmative attitude, "Mask, how did you determine that the clown and the lion were inside?" Without any investigation or visit, the location of the lion and the clown was determined based on only a file. This was too hasty, but what was even more hasty was that he actually found an inexplicable circus.
The circus entertainment project was popular all over the world in the last century. Almost everyone would watch a circus performance during major festivals. It was as common as watching a movie today, which also led to the explosive development of the circus industry at that time. However, with the development of technology and the popularization of televisions, game consoles and computers, people have more and better entertainment choices, and the interest in the circus is also decreasing day by day. Today, the circus has almost become a noun in history. It has been rare for decades and is almost like a traditional cultural heritage.
Uh-huh!
Just when the three kings were looking at the tent, the curtain under the tent door was suddenly lifted, and a thin man poked his head out of the tent. When he saw the three kings, he was obviously taken aback, and a flash of emotion flashed across his face. A hint of panic.
"Are you here to see the circus performance?"
The three Kings focused their attention on the reserved man coming out of the tent.
"A circus performance?" The girl in yellow pointed at the tent in surprise and said, "Are there still circus performances going on inside?" This is really unbelievable. In such a dilapidated circus venue, people would come to watch the performance
The thin man smiled bitterly, "There has been no circus performance for more than a year. Because there are no audiences and no income from the circus, the Wilderness Circus has almost reached the point of disbanding."
"Are you the only one in the circus now?"
King stared at the man with strange eyes. The girl in glasses and the girl in yellow looked at each other suspiciously.
"Well, I'm the only one left. The circus has no income. The original employees have already found other ways to make a living. Only I, the leader of the circus, is still holding on." The man didn't seem to notice the different looks from the three kings and laughed at himself. , "Even I don't know what I am holding on to, maybe I just hope to see the circus flourish!"
As he spoke, he looked at the three kings and said with a smile: "Stop guessing. Yes, I am the clown you are looking for. I stole the lion in the zoo, and I also stole the magical lion from before. My pet dog and I robbed a bank."
"this… "
The three kings looked at the clown in surprise, but they didn't expect the clown to admit his crime openly.
"You know what? We are heroes." The girl in yellow reminded the other party.
"I know." The man pointed to his eyes and said to the king: "I saw the two of them yesterday, and they even managed to escape under this masked hero. I am deeply impressed by you."
"You know that we are heroes and you don't run away and are not afraid?" King felt that things were abnormal.
"Escape? The circus is still here, so I can't escape." The man smiled and said: "Forget it, you come to the door, I already know my ending, so be it, three heroes, I don't know if I have any Would it be an honor to treat you to a circus show?”
"Invite us to watch a circus show?"
The three Kings were surprised to see such a calm and composed criminal for the first time.
"That's right. In fact, I have been in the circus for more than a year, and I have already thought about giving up. Waiting is too hard, and I don't want to wait any longer." The man smiled and said, "I want to give up before I say goodbye to the circus completely. Put on a grand circus show and invite enough audiences to watch it. It will be the end of the circus. The circus has been in decline for more than a year. The animals used to perform have long since disappeared, and they can only start again. Training animals, and being very interested in all kinds of animals, I happened to know that the rich man Cormier had a magical pet dog, so I thought about using my animal training skills to steal the magical pet dog and then wear a shirt. I wore a robe so that I could go on stage to perform, but I didn’t expect that everything was messed up. The magical pet dog that I had hoped to use for the performance was gone, and the banknotes I got from the bank robbery to buy and decorate the performance venue were also gone. .”
He smiled helplessly, "I was just unwilling to let everything end in failure, so I focused my attention on the animals in the zoo. However, I didn't expect that I would attract you here again. Perhaps, this is me and the circus." The fate of the regiment is destined not to be revived in the new era.”
"So you invited us to your circus show?"
The three kings were in a slightly depressed mood. They did not expect that there would be a different story behind a series of events.
"Yes, the circus should be lonely during the performance, instead of letting time completely wash away it." The man laughed and said: "Let the last circus performance be the curtain call of my life!"
"Okay, I'm willing to watch your circus performance." King was silent for a moment, then nodded and agreed to the man's proposal.
"Mask?"
The girl in yellow and the glasses looked at King in surprise. The other party was a criminal. You should not trust the criminal's words easily. If the other party was deceiving you and took the opportunity to escape, you would be in trouble.
"It's okay, I believe he won't run away."
King smiled faintly and ran away? Just kidding, if the man was dressed as a clown before, he might not be able to find the other person. However, with the other person's appearance completely exposed before his eyes, how could he still escape the surveillance of "tracking and positioning"
"All right."
The girl in yellow and the glasses looked at King with confidence, and it was difficult to refute. After all, they already knew the identity of the other party. Even if the other party escaped, it would be easier for the next search.
"Thank you so much for your help."
The man thanked him gratefully.
"Guys, please wait a moment. I'll go backstage to prepare and present you with a wonderful circus show right away."
"come on."
King and the other three entered the tattered tent one after another. The tent was relatively dark and filled with many similarly tattered chairs. There was a performance venue in front of the tent.
