==================

At this time, in the opera house

Rand waited in the carriage for about half an hour, but he didn't see Carlota, and felt very strange.

He thought of her weird attitude tonight, compared with the day, some changes have taken place.

He couldn't understand the change.

He looked at the dark street outside, full of phagocytosis like a monster, and had an ominous premonition in his heart.

He almost ran back to her lounge, and the door slammed on the frame, waking Mrs. Mason in a panic.

"Mr. Rand?" She was full of tears. When she saw him, she seemed to have seen a life-saving straw. "Mr. Rand, it's the phantom...it took the lady away...it must be..."

"Phantom?" Rand frowned quickly, and quickly looked around the room, but found nothing unusual.

"Tell me, when did she go out? Where did you see her last?" Rand suddenly grabbed her arm hard, and his voice lost its usual rhythm.

"Miss didn't go out. After you left, I kept guarding the door, but suddenly I heard someone singing..." Mason's expression was a little dazed, "Miss received a letter this afternoon, she said, it was from Phantom. "

"Phantom?" Rand didn't expect the ghost of the opera house to be real. He certainly didn't believe it was a ghost. Someone must have pretended to be a ghost and kidnapped Carlotta.

So, where did he snatch her from?Where did it take her again?

He firmly grasped the gentleman's stick, his heart racing.

The Phantom often haunts the Opera House, so it should live around the Opera House, or right there!

Rand quickly disappeared in the foyer, and the opera house was occupied by a large number of police and his personal guards. They centered on the foyer and started a radioactive carpet search.

The above ground part of the opera house was quickly searched. Fortunately, it was very late at this time, and except for the two managers, there were only a few sporadic employees.

An hour later, nothing was found, and the air was suffocatingly quiet.

"There is no opera house, so I will look outside, go, use my hand letter, and call the guards here."

Debien never knew that Carlotta's friend turned out to be a Duke, and he immediately dispatched a third of the city's police.

But now, the army is going to be dispatched to search.

Debine was almost blinded, so that the whole town would know that Mademoiselle Carlotta was missing.

The Opéra de Paris is coming to an end, at the right time for it!

He must stop this from happening.

So what should he do?

Mademoiselle Carlotta was nowhere to be seen, the Phantom must have done it.

But they had already agreed to his conditions, not only agreed to pay him a ridiculously high salary, but also reserved Box No. [-] exclusively for him.

But the Phantom actually kidnapped the chief soprano, and also attracted a Duke.

Debien only felt that his eyes were dark. He looked at the face of the Duke hidden under the mask. Those blue eyes seemed to be shining with a cold light, tearing them to pieces at any time.

He was sitting in front of Mademoiselle Carlotta's dressing room right now, those dangerous eyes searching like eagle eyes.

Whenever he inadvertently swipes, De Bean always shiver.

"Your Excellency..." He mustered up his courage, wiped the cold sweat from his brow, and hesitated to speak.

"Say." His voice was so dignified that Debien was a little timid and speechless.

Another manager, Pollini, undoubtedly thought of something with his partner. He stepped forward at this moment, bent down and said, "My lord, maybe Miss Carlotta has left Paris."

Debine recovered and added: "Miss Carlotta has been missing for five hours, enough time for the robbers to take her out of the city."

"Oh, you mean, the Phantom took Miss Carlotta out of the city overnight?" Rand stood up, pacing the room carelessly.

De Bien thought that his intentions were about to succeed. As long as the Duke focused his attention away from Paris, the impact on the opera house would not be so great.

As for Mademoiselle Carlotta, God bless her, the Phantom is too cruel.

Rand chuckled lightly, with pleasure and sarcasm.

He didn't speak anymore, just raised the gentleman's stick, the muscles of his arm stretched into a tight arc, and he smashed it forward with all his strength.

A crisp cracking sound exploded in the room, carrying a breath of shock.

Debien thought that the Duke had discovered his little thoughts, and his heart jumped, fearing that he would be the next one to be smashed.

He was about to make amends when he heard Miss Carlota's assistant exclaim, "Secret way!"

Everyone's eyes turned to the huge full-length mirror in an instant, and a passageway as tall as a person appeared in front of them. It was dark inside, exuding a mysterious and terrifying atmosphere.

Rand instantly wanted to understand the route where Carlotta was robbed. It seemed that his direction was correct. The Phantom was in the opera house, but it was underground.

This rat that lives in the gutter has robbed his wife, and he wants to make him pay the price.

He immediately raised his hand to signal the guards and the police to go in, and he followed suit.

Debion and Pollini looked at each other, conveying shocking emotions. Unexpectedly, there was a secret passage in the opera house, and they didn't know anything about it.

Thinking that they were going to catch Phantom immediately and not be threatened by him again, they immediately cheered up and followed.

Unfortunately, they couldn't get what they wanted after all.

The people searched down about 50 meters, and the secret passage came to an end. There were no organs or decorations in front of it, and the dark walls seemed to mock them.

Carlotta and Phantom didn't walk for long, and came out from a small door, which turned out to be the attic on the top of the building.

The sky is full of stars, shining crystal light under the bleak moonlight.

As soon as Carlotta raised her head, she was fascinated by the vast sky.

After staying in the field for so long, she feels that the breath on the ground is fragrant, and the air carries the breath of freedom and life.

Seeing how intoxicated she was, Phantom's eyes darkened even more.

Carlotta is someone who wants to live in the sun, her hair is the same color as the sun, and her soul is as vibrant as the sun.

But he is a "ghost", living in the damp, cold and dark underground, without seeing the sun.

"Eric, have you lived in Paris since childhood?" Carlotta interrupted his self-pity.

This situation is very suitable for a heart-to-heart chat. She wants to know him better and try to fall in love with him.

She didn't know what Phantom looked like, but she admired him for his talent and his exuberant vitality.

If it was someone else, with an ugly appearance, I am afraid that he would have given up his life long ago.But what about the Phantom?

He is constantly learning, and he has become an architectural genius by self-taught, building secret roads in the palace.

Not only that, but he also loves life, enriches himself with music, and turns his residence into a fairyland.

Physical defects make him feel inferior; his outstanding talent makes him proud.

What a charming soul, it is precisely this flaw that makes him more extraordinary, like Venus with a broken arm.

"No, I was abandoned and wandered here." He felt her almost loving eyes, and his eyes moved slightly.

"Abandoned?" This seems to be different from the original book. Didn't he run away from home by himself?

With a twinkle in his eyes, he walked up to her with a trembling voice: "Yes, even my biological mother can't tolerate my ugliness. One day, you will abandon me."

He looks really vulnerable, so he's terrified of abandonment.

So, in the original book, when he was abandoned by the heroine Christine, did he choose to die because he lost all hope and motivation to live?

In fact, she was very strange when she read the original book, why does Phantom love the heroine Christine?

pure?It can also be said to be stupid.

beauty?Beautiful women are everywhere.

Is it the phantom's possessiveness for the students, or the possessiveness for his own belongings?

Christine's musical talent was cultivated by Phantom, and he may have regarded her as his own.

In Phantom's barren life, cultivating a musical genius is his life's sustenance.

Therefore, when this doll-like girl betrayed him, he was so desperate and lost his enthusiasm for life.

Is Christine different from others?

Yes, when she saw the true face of the Phantom, apart from fear and disgust, she also had some pity.

Except that Christine had pity him, she was almost the same as the others.

A gleam of light in his dark life could drive him mad or drive him to ruin.

Compared with loving him, letting him find the belief in life seems to be more important.

"Eric, I admire you very much." She smiled.

"Admiration?" Phantom looked down at her, focused and expectant.

Her face was like a fairy under the moonlight, and her smile had the power to heal people's hearts. He breathed her breath like an addiction.

"You seem to be omnipotent, music, architecture, art..." Her words of praise gradually faded under his focused gaze.

In the cool spring breeze, for some reason, her cheeks felt hot.

"In my life, I have never seen a man like you, hard and fragile." She blushed and glanced at him, then looked away again, her voice lowered, "It makes me feel...love..."

"Lianai?" He leaned in even more, almost kissing her.

His breath sprinkled on her face, with an ambiguous rose fragrance, which almost made her squint her eyes.

Her appearance seemed to be seductive, he approached inch by inch, his lips almost touching.

There was a sound of horseshoes on the silent street, followed by the sound of neat steps.

A trace of disappointment flashed in Phantom's eyes. Seeing her turn her head to look at the street, the exciting atmosphere disappeared like smoke in an instant.

"What is that?" She frowned, feeling very strange.

It's so late, why is there an army here?

"The palace's carriage." The Phantom's hoarse voice sounded in her ear.

She turned her head in an instant, almost sticking on his mask, and immediately made him back away in panic.

She almost encountered that ugly face, even through a mask, it was unbearable.

She noticed Phantom's overly violent reaction, but she ignored him for a while.

For some reason, she always had a bad premonition.

She thought of something, lifted her skirt in an instant, and ran down the stairs. When she ran to the stairs, she turned her head short of breath: "Eric, you go back first, see you next time."

Her figure quickly disappeared from sight, Phantom followed a few steps to the stairs, and was about to run down, but suddenly stopped and changed direction.

At this time, the hall of the Opera House was brightly lit.

Rand stood on the high platform, waiting for the explosives to arrive.Yes, he's going to blow up the tunnel.

The two managers were like ants on a hot pot, running around in a hurry, but they dared not say anything.If they dare to stop them, they will be killed by Mr. Rand.

They are sure.

However, blowing up the secret passage will undoubtedly damage the stability of the opera house.It is not yet known how many bombs will be bombed. If a large number of bombs explode, the opera house will be over.

Just when they were in fear, there was a strange sound outside, as if someone was running at the same time.

They immediately realized that Mr. Rand said that he was going to transfer the army. Could it be that he has already arrived?

However, Miss Carlotta was hidden underground by the phantom, so what's the use of the army?

As it turns out, they were completely wrong.

It was not an ordinary army, but the Royal Guards.

Those who came with the army, as well as the emperor's close attendants, and the nobles tonight are really one after another.

The lord left quickly, leaving some soldiers behind.

No one dared to speak now, and the time passed minute by minute while waiting.

"Master, the explosives are here." A guard in red uniform came in quickly, carrying several black packages.

That must be dynamite.

De Bean was almost crying. The explosives were enough to blow the Opera House into ruins.

Carlota felt that she was such a fool that she forgot to notify Rand.When she left with Phantom, he was waiting for her outside.

She didn't know Rand's identity, only that he was an aristocrat and an Italian.

So, do these troops have anything to do with him?

Although the phantom's labyrinth is complicated, it is really vulnerable to the army and explosives.

She didn't want Phantom to run away like a street mouse.

When Carlota walked into the first floor, she was immediately seen by the guards, and everyone watched her come down the stairs in dumbfounded.

The scene was a farce, with people watching her like puppets until the two managers saw her.

"Oh, God, Miss Carlotta!" Debien couldn't believe his eyes, thinking it was an illusion caused by his desire too much.

Mr. Rand has decided to blow up the secret passage, and the opera house is doomed. He is so anxious that he can't help but have unrealistic fantasies.

He imagined that Miss Carlotta was fine, that there were no phantoms, no secret passages.

But his partner soon saw Carlotta too, exclaiming "Miss Carlotta".

So, no hallucinations, Miss Carlotta really came back.

Debien looked at Miss Carlotta in shock. At this time, she was held in Mr. Rand's arms and looked fine.

Rand was so excited just now that he ran down and hugged her. At this moment, he felt that she was reluctant, so he reluctantly let her go.

"How are you?" He put his hands on her arms, and looked at her carefully in his eyes, with the joy and fear of regaining what was lost.

"I'm fine." Under his concerned eyes, she felt a little guilty, "I was on the roof when I woke up, what happened?"

Rand noticed that her expression was a little strange, his eyes dimmed, and he asked, "When you woke up, were you on the roof?"

"Yeah, what's the matter?" She lowered her eyes, not daring to look into his eyes.

For the first time, she discovered that his eyes were not only clear, but also sharp.It's because he has always been so gentle that she didn't discover his other side.

Today's army must be related to him. What is Rand's identity? Not only does he have bodyguards, but he can easily attract the Imperial Guards?

A chuckle came from the top of her head, and Rand let go of her arm, with a hint of a cold smile in his words: "Then you were kidnapped by the phantom?"

The hall was brightly lit, reflecting cold light on his face, like an ice sculpture.

She couldn't see his expression, but based on his tone, she also knew that he didn't believe her at all.

Also, she was intact from top to bottom, and there was no sign of a fight in the room, and it didn't look like she was forced to leave at all.

"Simon, I want to talk to you alone." The phantom's matter should not be too loud.

There was always a smile on the corner of Rand's mouth. At this moment, he looked at the woman in front of him for a while, and waved his hands around.

The crowd poured out like a tide, and the two managers wanted to stay to inquire about the news, but they were dragged down by the guards.

The empty hall became very quiet, and a needle could be heard.

Under his gaze, Carlotta felt a little nervous, which was really strange. Why was she guilty?

"Sit down, Carlotta, I think you are very tired." Rand sat down on the seat next to him, his tone softened again.

Holding the mask he just took off in his hand, he motioned for her to sit beside him.

Carlota frowned. He seemed gentle and gentle, but he was actually very strong, habitually taking the initiative.

But she didn't object to his proposal. It was very late now, and she was really tired after walking in the maze for so long.

Seeing his gentlemanly demeanor, she decided to ignore some small details and ignore his strength.

"It's the phantom, he took me away." She calmed down and stated the fact.

Rand was not surprised, but his eyes were cruising on her face, and he was sure when he seemed to ask: "You left voluntarily?"

She turned her head to look at him and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I forgot to inform you."

"Forgot...notify me..." He thought about this sentence for a while, then laughed again, with a trace of sarcasm, "I think you have forgotten me at all."

"Simon, why are you so angry? I shouldn't be so angry." Carlota frowned, a little disgusted by his strong attitude.

In her heart, he was just a partner, and she was really sorry for him tonight for making him wait in vain.

But she didn't agree to let him take it off at all at that time, and he had already left on his own.

He seemed to laugh even harder, and asked, "You said I shouldn't be angry? My wife is missing, and I found her gone with another man. Shouldn't I be angry?"

wife?

Hearing this, Phantom almost wanted to kill the man immediately.

In fact, he had had this urge several times, ever since Carlotta returned to the hall.

How dare he hug her and call her his wife!

But, no, he had already promised her that he would not kill anyone again.At least, he couldn't kill him in front of her.

The conversation continues.

Carlota felt that Rand was unreasonable: "But I'm not your wife, so I rejected you."

She refused!

Phantom breathed a sigh of relief.

"But you will fall in love with me, you are my wife after all." Rand's voice became colder, he raised his head as if aware of it, and looked towards the dark corner on the second floor.

If he hadn't seen his face, Phantom would have sneered like Carlota, mocking his narcissism.

But he saw it, and Eric felt his blood freeze, and he couldn't help but believe his words.

She will definitely fall in love with a man and become his wife.

Because he has such a face, there is no woman in the world who can not love him.

Carlotta, the phantom said the name silently in her heart.

He had already begun to suspect that she had fallen in love with this man now, but she didn't know anything about it.

Carlota only felt that Rand was hopeless, he was not a normal narcissist, he almost regarded himself as Jack Su.

But, God knows, she couldn't see his face at all.

"Simon, it doesn't make sense to say this now, but I don't love you now, that's a fact." Carlotta stood up from the chair, wanting to leave here.

"Because of that phantom? A rat in the gutter?" Rand asked.

His tone was not mocking, but filled with endless doubts. In his opinion, Phantom was not comparable to himself at all.

Whether it's appearance, bearing or family background, Phantom is a beggar in front of him.

He didn't know much about Phantom, but a man who hid in the dark underground all day must be extremely wretched, so he didn't take it seriously.

"I don't want to hear you say that about him again." Carlota paused and her tone became cold.

It was the first time she was so cold in front of him, and Rand froze for a moment, unable to believe it: "You are talking to me like this for him? A ghost? Could it be that he has confused your heart so that you can't see my preciousness?"

As he spoke, he got up and walked in front of her, took her arm, and looked down at her: "Carlotta, I am a duke, marry me, you are a duchess. Forget all this, marry me."

In the corner of the second floor, Phantom's heart hangs high.

Her defense made his heart tremble, but the existence of that man broke his heart again.

She will definitely be tempted, a duke, a peerless handsome man, what can he compare with?

He has nothing but a heart.

No, he couldn't lose her.

She said that she is her most special friend, and she just said that she is full of love for herself.

As long as you give him time, he will definitely win her heart.

Of course, the premise is that the unsightly man downstairs does not exist.

In the center of the hall, there is a huge crystal chandelier, illuminating the floor brightly.
