[Infinite] End Game

Chapter 169 The Piper

A complete circus performance includes ten programs. Among the eighteen members, Lynn is the clown to undertake the opening program, and the remaining three NPCs are musicians. Louis, as the team doctor, does not need to perform programs.

In other words, the remaining thirteen players have to take on nine programs, among which wrestling, magic, trapeze and knife throwing all require double cooperation, and the rest are individual projects.

Each event has corresponding props. Although Lin En is the team leader, there is no clear regulation on who will do what. He just clapped his hands with a smile, and said: "Everyone should practice more" and wandered around in other places , leaving only the players to choose.

The final result was that one of the four female players was invited to be a magic assistant, one and her partner chose trapeze, and the remaining two girls chose acrobatics.

Among the boys, two players chose wrestling, and the other two chose equestrian performance and ventriloquism respectively. Among the deep-sea players, Wei Liu chose a fire ring for some reason, and Lin Xiwen also unexpectedly chose a high-altitude walker. Suo, at the end of the selection, there was only one cooperation project left that was not selected, that is, the flying knife, which could only fall on the heads of Tang Yu and Chang He.

Tang Yu picked up the flying knife and the blindfold that went with the flying knife. In fact, no one chose this project because of the cloth belt. It's hard to give your life completely to another person, especially if that person is still blindfolded.

After Tang Yu picked up the flying knife, he turned around and waved to Chang He. The place where they practiced was on the other side of the tent. He wasn't worried that Chang He's hands would shake, but generally speaking, this kind of thrilling performance Isn't it more interesting to invite beautiful women to projects...

I always feel that my character has become strange again.

Thinking of this, Tang Yu couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth. Chang He noticed Tang Yu's weird expression and cast a questioning look in time: "?"

"It's nothing." Tang Yu smiled and shook his head, and said, "Let's practice first."

The contact area reserved for them is in the far corner of the tent. Boxes used to store props and clothing are stacked together to form a simple wall. A round wooden board stands against the boxes, and a human figure is drawn on it with white ash. , there are places where the hands and feet can be fixed.During the performance, the board will be rotated. Chang He's task is to stick the flying knife to the board while blindfolded. Tang Yu only needs to be responsible for not being dizzy when the disc rotates.

So Chang He took it for granted not to let Tang Yu get close to the wooden board, and only practiced his hand feeling with a throwing knife. His physical condition was actually a little worse than it looked, and it was not that he would lose his aim, but there was something in his body. Like holding a few thousand catties of iron, the movements that are usually easy to do now require concentration. After a while, sweat dripped down the chin, but the color of the eyes is always bright.

Tang Yu kept staring at Chang He, but silently looked away the moment Chang He raised the back of his hand to wipe his sweat.

After entering the dungeon this time, Chang Hezhao was much more silent than before. Tang Yu knew very well that Chang He's silence just didn't want others, especially him, to worry. This cautious and forbearing style seemed a little cute to Tang Yu But it's distressing - at this point, Chang He is almost like a well-behaved but stubborn child.

But in fact, Tang Yu had specifically asked Louis before Chang He was pushed into the operating room before he woke up, and he was well aware of the pain he was enduring.Tang Yu didn't break Chang He's silence, but paid more attention to Chang He thoughtfully.

Then it caused his mind to be full of the idea of ​​'let him throw another round and tell him to rest', he didn't pay attention when the tent behind him was pulled, and he didn't pay attention when a small figure got in, until his leg was crushed. After bumping into it, he was startled, and turned his head to look suddenly.

"...You?" Tang Yu was stunned for a moment, looking at the little girl in front of him, his memory quickly came back, and finally he fixed on the part where Lin En was pushed into the fountain pool last night.

"Are you that little girl from yesterday?" Tang Yu knelt down, looked into the little girl's clear blue eyes, and asked softly, "Itis, is that so?"

"Yes!" Entering an unfamiliar space made the little girl's eyes a little nervous, but when Tang Yu said her name, the little girl nodded vigorously immediately and showed a sweet smile to Tang Yu .

"...but," the little girl hesitated for a moment, then looked at Tang Yu and said, "I don't know your name yet."

"My name is Tang." Tang Yu rolled his eyes and asked her pretending to be serious: "Then, Edith, what are you doing here? Before the show starts, the scene in the round tent is kept secret."

"I'm here to find Mr. Clown." Edith blinked her big eyes and replied, "Dad pushed Mr. Clown into the water yesterday. That was very bad. I'm here to apologize for Dad."

The little girl spoke very seriously, with fair and tender skin, fluffy blond hair braided and blue eyes like sea water, she was simply a little angel who fell into the mortal world.

No one can refuse a little angel's request, and Tang Yu is no exception, so he smiled and said to Edith: "Well, I can take you to Mr. Clown, but if he scolds me, you have to Just help me speak."

Edith shook his finger with him, indicating that the deal was done.

"I'll take her there." After finishing talking with the little girl, Tang Yu turned to Chang He, who had stopped practicing and was listening to them quietly.

"Do you need to rest?" Tang Yu asked him.

"No, I'll go with you." Chang He shook his head, and seeing Tang Yu looking at him slightly raised his eyes, he smiled slightly and said in a low voice, "Don't worry."

"..." Tang Yu lowered his eyes uncomfortably, and after a few seconds, he raised his hand and touched his ears indistinctly.Due to the continuous high fever these past few days, Chang He's voice was hoarse and deep, but it was not unpleasant, and it made Tang Yu's ears feel hot.

Is this the damn charm?

Lynn is in a small space behind the stage. The stage is just a simple circular area drawn with white ash. A piece of red cloth is hung behind it as the background. Behind the red cloth is two steps away from the tent. It is used to pile up some sundries and wait for actors, which is the backstage in the usual sense.

When Tang Yu and the others found Lin En, he was hugging his knees and curled up on top of a box in a daze. He couldn't tell whether he was bored or mocking against the light. He blew it, and after seeing Ittis, he raised his head and showed a genuinely surprised expression.

"Lin En, a little angel is here to visit you." Tang Yu said, and gently patted the little girl's shoulder. The little girl who was encouraged took a step forward, and was held in front of her by the hand behind her. Holding a bright but unknown yellow flower in his hand, he held it in front of Lynn.

"My name is Edith," the little girl bravely introduced herself, "I'm here to apologize for Dad, and I picked flowers for you, Mr. Clown, can you forgive him?"
