How to become a sea witch

Chapter 39, part thirty five

Not long after returning to the Observation Center, Troy and their investigation results came out.

As Thiago guessed, this woman was not a victim that Lambert randomly found on the street, but worked in the same theater as him,? And a well-known local actress, Belinda Norman.

Tiago listened to Gabriel's report, briefly looked at the personal information in his hand, then closed it back, handed it to Bernice at the side, and said: "Although this human girl also has something to do with the theater Relationship,? But from the perspective of appearance and age, it doesn't quite match his previous preferences. And from the perspective of past life,? Although she is an actress that theaters value more,? But everyone's personal style evaluation of her Not very good."

"That's right." Gabriel nodded.

After hearing this, Bernice quickly looked through the documents in her hand and found that although Belinda Norman was single in name, she was secretly the mistress of three married men at the same time.And according to other actors in the same theater, the reason why she became a leading actress was because one of her lovers was one of the top executives of the opera house.

After seeing this, Bernice couldn't help being a little stunned.This Belinda Norman can deal with three men at the same time, and can also take care of her own work,? Obviously not an ordinary person.With such overall planning and coordination ability, it is not a talent to go where? Why do you have to stay in the theater?

Just as she was thinking, she heard Tiago thinking briefly, and then asked, "Has there been any disputes between Greer and Miss Norman?"

"That's not true. But from what I heard from the theater, it seems that the opera written by Greer has recently entered a state of rehearsal. The other minor roles have been decided, but in the female lead The choice,? He has been at odds with the director of the theater, Harrison Barker," Gabriel replied.

Bernice glanced at the information in her hand, and soon saw Harrison Barker's name, and roughly guessed the reason: "Because he wants Belinda to play the heroine Dakota?"

Gabriel nodded: "To be precise, she requested it on her own initiative, and Buck quickly agreed."

After hearing this, Thiago sighed slightly: "That's no wonder. Everything about Dakota means a lot to him, and he will definitely not tolerate Belinda playing his lover."

"Looking at it this way, the penitent posture of the corpse under the fir tree may also be due to this." Bernice touched her chin and asked, "Who did Greer originally want to play the role?" Kota's role?"

"The people in the theater didn't know much about this. They only knew that Greer was extremely opposed to Buck's decision, and the two of them had a very tense fight because of this," Gabriel said.

"That means maybe you haven't chosen yet?" Bernice muttered, her eyes suddenly lit up, "Why don't you let me try? Let's just say that I am a person who has a dream of being an opera singer. Let's see if he will I don’t agree. It just makes him give up looking for other human girls as targets, otherwise there will be one more victim. What do you think?”

In theory, this is indeed a very good idea, but...

Gabriel looked at Tiago silently, and found that although he didn't show too many straightforward emotions on his face, the expression between his brows and eyes was obviously calmed down, and he objected lightly: "That's a good idea, Bo Niss. But since you have no real experience with opera, I don't think he would agree to let an outsider play the leading lady. Even if he agreed, I don't think the other directors of the theater would agree."

Bernice thought for a moment, and felt that what the other party said was very reasonable, so she changed her words: "Then... If you don't want to be the heroine, it should be okay for me to go and see it often? This way, I can know who he chose in the first place. Play the leading role and prevent the next victim from appearing again."

After hearing what she said, Thiago seemed to want to frown, but restrained himself, he only trembled his eyelashes slightly, and said without changing his expression: "If it is really the person he thinks, who can meet his expectations .Then Greer won’t hurt her until the opera performance is over, so you don’t have to go to such troublesome frequent visits. Besides, I believe the security department will be able to investigate the matter of who was chosen very quickly.”

As he spoke, he turned his head to Gabriel and smiled slightly: "Is that so?"

The brown-haired angel pursed her lips and nodded very cooperatively.

Is this to deny her the chance to go to the theater at all?

Bernice tried to say something more, but what Tiago said just now had already rejected all the reasons she could think of.

But why?

Obviously this method is very good, why not agree with her?

Bernice secretly stared at the young man in front of her with some unease. The magnificent golden sunlight came in from the window behind her, passed over her shoulders, and reflected on his fair and beautiful side face, dazzled in her eyes.A few strands of platinum-blonde hair hanging down the sideburns were almost burned to the point of being almost transparent by the light of the same color.

Just looking at the expression on his face, Bernice couldn't find any reason for his objection.He was too calm to see any emotion other than that habitual tenderness.

but……

She looked away, recalling the question Gabriel asked her yesterday, a slight sense of anxiety gradually climbed out from the depths of her mind.

Are they suspicious of her?

Because after listening to Rodriguez's words, she finally felt that she was an unreliable ally, so she decided not to let her have any chance to get close to Lambert, so as not to be instigated by him and repeat the events of the year?

But if this is the case, then why does Thiago always seem to defend her?

What's wrong... It's obvious that I haven't had any problems with my behavior during this period of time.What the hell did that damned Rodriguez tell them?

While Bernice lowered her eyes to think, Thiago had already shifted her gaze to Gabriel: "I believe that the matter of Belinda Norman will be reported soon, and I will have to work hard for you." Supervision will do."

"As ordered."

As soon as Gabriel finished speaking, Bernice suddenly spoke again, with a slight tentativeness: "Then, what about the sentence about Greer that may involve the whereabouts of the magic lamp?"

"That sentence is indeed very important." Thiago replied, stretching his hands at the same time, and sticking the fingertips together very naturally, looking like a pyramid, with a gentle smile on his face, "But I will It's fine, don't worry."

She nodded and didn't say anything more, but she knew in her heart that the other party was indeed trying to avoid any possible contact between her and Lambert.

After leaving the office, Bernice did not go straight back to her room as usual, but walked to the entrance of the Observation Center with Gabriel.

The high temperature at the end of July and the busy celebration of God's birthday in the future make this ocean observation center built on land feel extraordinarily empty.Looking at the asphalt road in front of him covered with scorching/hot sun, Bernice suddenly asked, "Does the Archangel think my proposal just now is good or bad?"

"What?" Gabriel looked sideways at her.

"Because I look somewhat similar to Miss Dakota Colson, so maybe we can use this to get close to Lambert and find out more useful information."

Bernice stood on the steps, the shadow of the eaves and the brightness of the bright sun appeared in her emerald green eyes: "What does the Archangel think of this proposal?"

This is a temptation.

She wanted to test out Gabriel's attitude towards her.If you really doubt her, then...

"My opinion is not important." Gabriel replied without emotion, his golden eyes were silent, "But His Majesty obviously doesn't want you to do that, that's the point."

"Yeah, I thought I could help." She sighed.

"You have always been helping, haven't you?" the angel standing in the sun said without any ups and downs.

"Thank you for your affirmation." Bernice looked at him with a smile, and at the same time felt a little more relaxed.

After all, judging from her understanding of Gabriel during this time, his behavior pattern is much easier to guess than Thiago, and she can basically be sure that what he just said is the truth.

"But at the end of the day, Your Majesty is only worried about your safety, so he doesn't agree with you to go. Don't think too much about it." Gabriel quickly disappeared in place after speaking, leaving only Bernice with a dazed face .

Worried about...her safety?

This conclusion is even weirder than doubting her, right?Why worry about her safety?

Could it be that she has carried out her whitewashing career so deeply without knowing it?

Bernice felt a little unimaginable, even a little uneasy.After all, she has never had any commendable good luck since she was a child.Every time she thought she would usher in a turning point, an even worse predicament followed.

All of a sudden, all kinds of questions flooded up and blocked her thinking, so chaotic that she couldn't even think calmly.

After breaking away from the protection of the cold air in the hall, Bernice soon felt the slight dull pain on her skin caused by the high temperature in summer.She walked back to the hall, sat in the lounge area and looked out at the lush greenery, and the dark tree-shaped shadows enveloped her.

After a while, Bernice finally decided to give up thinking about Thiago for the time being, and instead plan what she should do next.

Now that things have changed due to Rodriguez's intervention, he must completely end Greer before this change has irreparable consequences for himself.

According to Thiago's previous statement, they went to the bottom to ask Rodriguez to ask questions about the magic lamp.That is to say, before they actually find the magic lamp, they may all go to the bottom floor to meet Rodriguez again.

Thinking of this, Bernice felt a tingling chill in her scalp, and at the same time decided quickly that she must go to the theater to see Greer.No matter what method is used, we must find out where the magic lamp is in the shortest possible time, otherwise God knows what that damn Rodriguez will say to them.

After making up her mind, she quickly got up and was about to go out, but stopped when she was about to go out, pulled the overly dark clothes on her body with her hands, and then recalled that in the opera, Dakota What are your clothes like?

Then, she returned to the room, regretting the beige gauze dress that was soiled by herself, and took a lot of effort to pull out a light emerald waist shirt dress with a fresh color from the almost dark bottom of the closet. put on.

Thanks to Rebecca for the dress that was forced on her at the beginning, it can finally come in handy today.

When leaving, Bernice glanced at the clock hanging on the wall. It was almost noon, and the sun was shining outside.

Before stepping out of the gate, she deliberately lowered the brim of the sun hat to the point where she could barely cover her sight, took a deep breath of the cool air in the hall, and lowered her head to quickly rush into the scorching sun outside.

A large piece of light poured down from the clear blue sky that was not covered by a cloud, and was folded by the smooth glass of roadside vehicles and high-rise buildings. It was as sharp as a knife and pierced into the fragile pupils, making people unable to open their eyes.

Bernice stood at the entrance of the theater and lingered for a while, except for the occasional staff who came in and out, she didn't see Lambert.Recalling that Mrs. Kitteridge from the clothing department had always had a good relationship with him, she wanted to inquire about it, but unfortunately she was forbidden to enter because she did not have a work permit.

After hesitating for a while, Bernice decided to change her mind.If she were Lambert, where would she go if she killed the temporary obstacle in front of her without completely solving the problem?

Just as she was thinking about it, what Tiago once said suddenly broke into Bernice's mind: "Grier's behavior pattern is predictable but very easily stimulated, and everything about him revolves around Dakota unfolds, and is unconsciously attracted to things related to Dakota."

"In addition, in order to get rid of the suspicion naturally after Belinda Norman's death was exposed, he will definitely maintain his usual routine during this period of time." She immediately thought of the coffee shop, it was Lan Bert said he went to lunch a lot and had a lot of chats with her about opera and Dakota places.

Leaving the theater and coming to the door of the coffee shop playing soothing music, Bernice saw Lambert through the floor-to-ceiling glass of the shop, who was checking out at the counter and was about to leave.

She blinked, and at the moment before the other party turned to the door, she lowered her head on purpose, and at the same time pushed the door briskly and entered, the flowing light green skirt swirled like a flower under the blowing of the air-conditioning.

Although the brim of the visor blocked the other party's sight, Bernice saw that as soon as she entered the store, Lambert took back the footsteps that he originally wanted to leave, and opened his mouth in surprise. To: "Miss Hardy?"

She raised her head, took off her sun hat, and returned the same smile: "Mr. Greer."

……

When Tiago found out that Bernice was not at the observation center, he already had a vague guess in his heart.

He stood by the seaside, watching the roaring waves rushing over from a distance, smashing into the reef continuously, and the splashed fine water mist was wiped away by the sun, forming a fleeting rainbow.Soon, more waves gathered and gathered in front of Tiago's eyes to form a familiar image of a soft and beautiful woman, whose transparent body was like a flowing crystal.

She bowed respectfully towards the young man in front of her, and replied, "Your Majesty, Miss Sea Witch is not in the ecological circle, do you need to go to the sea to look for it?"

"No need." Thiago shook his head slightly, and said with a blank expression, "I probably know where she is. Go and deal with the mutants and the human fishing boat first."

"Yes."

According to the news that Gabriel just sent back, an ocean-going fishing team was attacked by a group of marine mutants on the way back, and they had to settle the matter before the marine police arrived.

It's just that compared with doing whatever you want on land and in the air, the mobility of angels will be greatly restricted in the ocean battlefield.Once the mutants dived into the sea, they had a hard time locking onto targets.

Gabriel remembered that there were a total of thirty mutants in this group, but they only killed one-sixth of them just now, and the remaining mutants all dived into the water extremely intelligently, and the raging sea gave them the best chance. protection of.

The rich scarlet color continued to spread in the blue waters, most of which came from fish and dead mutants, and some of them belonged to the humans on the fishing boat.The boat that has lost power and traction is floating on the sea, like fallen leaves caught in a storm, so fragile that they will be torn apart at any time.

Excessive blood melted into the sea water, rolling and expanding like a thick fog, encroaching and swallowing the originally calm sea blue around it inch by inch.

They prowl beneath the waters where the angels cannot reach, ready to tear the hull from the bottom.After feeling the obvious impact sound from the bottom of the boat, the extremely panicked fishermen started screaming and ran to the deck.The thick metal plate at the bottom of the ship was gradually broken, and the turbulent sea water immediately began to pour in through the cracks, and the originally straight bow was gradually sinking.

Troy looked at the crowds screaming for help everywhere, and the huge fishing boat that was slowly silent, and was at a loss for a while: "Sir, there are at least a hundred of these people who are still alive, and we have no time to transfer them to land one by one. What should I do?"

"These bastards are hiding under the boat, we can't attack at all." Uriah gritted her teeth irritably.

Gabriel frowned and looked around the entire sea area, and quickly ordered: "Scatter into small teams, do our best to prevent the hull from sinking, and delay the time."

"clear."

Soon, the sinking trend of the fishing boat was stopped, but the overly tilted hull made the people on the deck unable to stand still, and began to slide into the sea screaming one after another.

At the same time, the mutants that had been lurking all this time finally surfaced, and Senbai's fangs were sharp and sharp, ready to crush the food delivered to the door and swallow it alive.

In the next second, a cold cross sword suddenly burst out of the water, pierced through the mutant's head at an extremely fast speed, nailed it firmly to the deck, and stopped the human who was about to fall into the sea above the sea level.

Immediately afterwards, the mutants who were still hiding under the sea just now seemed to have received some extreme stimulation, and began to surface desperately trying to escape from this sea area.

A bright radiance is constantly forming in the sea, brilliant and clear silver blue, like countless fireflies walking through the sea, condensing into a luminous vortex.The sea water was forcibly twisted into a turbulent vortex by an external force, and all the escaped mutants were rolled back to the center of the vortex.

As the eddy area continues to increase, the entire sea looks like a hole has been hollowed out.The dark eyes stared blankly at the sky, and the rapid currents mercilessly tore any objects involved into pieces and threw them into the ocean.

Immediately followed by ice, the pale and flawless color reflected the dazzling light in the midsummer sun, freezing all the fallen body remains together.

After dealing with all this, the sea returned to its former cleanness and peace, as if nothing had happened—if one ignores the ice that freezes the remains of mutants, the dilapidated fishing boats, and the The words of a human being who has been frightened to the point of being completely incapable of responding.

At this moment, Tiago finally surfaced from the sea, his wet platinum hair was sticky on both sides of his handsome face, and small transparent water droplets hung from his eyelashes, falling again as he blinked. back to the sea.

"How many people are here?" he asked.

"If you return to the crown, there will be about 100 people." Gabriel and other angels lined up neatly suspended on the water, and answered with their heads bowed.

"Let's clean it up." As he spoke, Thiago raised his jaw at the pale iceberg again, with a calm tone, "As for those things, if they are broken like that, don't recycle them, and there won't be anything worth using for research. It’s worth it, so take it back and burn it.”

"As ordered."

As soon as the words fell, the blond mermaid in front of her disappeared.

Troy looked at the place where the other party had just disappeared, then at the archangel beside him, and asked softly: "Well, sir, is it my illusion? Why do I feel that Your Majesty seems a little angry?

Gabriel lowered his eyes and did not answer directly, but said, "Take those wreckage back."

"Ah, okay."

Looking at the pale and cold grave of ice, he felt that Troy was right. Thiago was just angry, and he was very angry.

Speaking of which, 0331 did not appear this time either.This is very strange, obviously according to her personality, she will definitely come to help in this kind of thing.

Thinking of this, Gabriel seemed to understand why Thiago dealt with these mutants in such a straightforward way.

He was in a hurry, so he needed to clean up these inappropriate creatures as quickly as possible.

Facts have proved that this processing method is indeed extremely neat.The current time is 01:30 pm, which is only half an hour before the accident happened.

During this period, while Bernice endured the human food filled with black pepper sauce and various strange seasonings, she also tried to act sincerely, repeatedly expressing her expectations for the performance and The envy of being an opera singer.

To be honest, this is really as difficult as eating flying fish.

Fortunately, she finally got her wish and heard an invitation from Lambert to take her to see the progress of the rehearsal.

"Really? This is really great." She tried her best to swallow the food that was like wet mud in her mouth, and then put on a lively smile, "Does that mean that I can have the opportunity to meet the hero and heroine? gone?"

Lambert was silent for a moment, then replied: "We haven't found anyone who can interpret Dakota yet."

"That's it."

She nodded with empathy: "After all, she is so perfect, it is really difficult to find a suitable person."

After deliberately pausing for a moment, Bernice asked again: "Then, do you currently have any candidates that you think are acceptable?"

This time, Lambert didn't answer her quickly, but seemed to be in some kind of deep thought.Bernice guessed that he might be hesitating to avoid the question, or just lie and say no for now.

But what she didn't expect was that after he sighed as if giving up, he turned to look at her with incomparable concentration, and asked, "You just said that your childhood dream was to be an actor in a drama or an opera. Real conditions do not allow it. If there is a chance, are you still willing to try it now?"

"You mean..." Bernice froze for a moment, instinctively guessing what he wanted to say next.

It was what she had hoped for, but it seemed a little too soon, which made her a little uneasy.

"Come on, let's go to the theater." He stood up and held out his hand to her.

The author has something to say: I had a dream the day before yesterday that this article had disappeared, and the joy in the dream was so real, but when I woke up, this nightmare was still there... Crashed and crawled away...
