The Nineteenth Century Didn't Believe in Love[Comprehensive]
Chapter 33 Reward
The kidnapping of the soprano Miss Lester at the People's Theater in Paris was rescued by her fiancé and sister-in-law through life and death. The murderer is still at large. Citizens are requested to be vigilant.
Carlotta put down today's newspaper and snorted at the headline.Raoul's social circle is handled by Raoul, and Mrs. Chaney is not a pedantic person, especially when Raoul has informed her parents of the whole thing in advance, and all the miscellaneous things outside are taken care of. Mrs. Shaney saw the tone of "using rumors to discredit the Shani family", really——
"It's really lucky and happy."
Carlotta clicked his tongue, threw the newspaper aside and took another bite of his croissant.The theater was completely on holiday for the past two days. Pilgi, who had escaped from death, came back to life because of his previous prayers, and almost went to church to convert completely.And Mrs. Gilly also seems to be sick, and Meg is taking care of her, not to mention the terrible news of "The Soprano with a Gun", which makes the whole theater in an atmosphere where the worldview is washed.
After finishing the breakfast, Carlotta clapped his hands and threw the milk bottle to the door, but just as he was about to retreat, he saw the door next door opened a crack, and an excited and curious little head poked out, seeing her Sometimes he even let out a small cheer.
"Miss Carlotta, are you free now?"
Even if you are not free, you must be free when you see your expression, my dear.
The girl's curious and earnest expression really had too much damage to Carlotta. After inviting people to the house, Carlotta brought cookies and tea sets as usual, and began to make tea for Cosette with a sigh. Time was stopped by the other party.
"Miss Carlotta, you're too used to this movement..." Cosette coughed, with a hint of gossip on her face: "It's too British, who did you learn from? Could it be Lou? The gentleman above?"
Carlotta paused for a moment while pouring the tea, and then put the tea set back on his own: "It's nothing, it's just that my mind is a little messed up."
Cosette secretly smiled but didn't expose her, coughed slightly and said, "Then, Miss Carlotta, can you tell me what happened at that time?"
"What happened, it's almost like your Miss Carlotta was brave enough to defeat the ghost and successfully rescued her friends, and then the friends finally got married, but she was still single and lived alone, and she still had to tell stories to the little girl next door .”
Carlotta spoke seriously, and at the same time reached out to rub Cosette's hair: "You don't have to go to school today?"
"I need it, but I'm ready. Since Miss Carlotta won't say more, I'm leaving now."
Cosette stood up with a smile, and at the same time picked up the handmade schoolbag in her hand, and ran to the door happily.When she pulled the doorknob, she turned her head and smiled meaningfully.
"Miss Carlotta, are you in love?"
"Ok?"
"I'd be surprised if you didn't fall in love with the expression of missing someone like this. Although the gentleman upstairs is English, he is full of knowledge and charm. You have a good eye."
Carlotta looked at the girl's bouncing back and shook his head, then went back to the room to sort out the tea set that he took out unconsciously just now.
Perhaps it was because Mr. Holmes came a little...too much?Glancing at the violin in the living room, Carlotta pursed her lips. Sometimes she felt that she seemed a little too indulgent.
Paris is sunny in winter, and when you look out of the window, you will never feel that it is already winter.Carlotta walked to the side of the violin case, and when he reached out to lift it up, he let go.Because of the low height, the violin case fell to the ground and made a slightly dull sound, which made Carlota's thoughts even more divergent in an instant.
Speaking of it, she seemed to recall that when Holmes said that he had arrived that night, he did not have a violin in his hand, and he did not just arrive as she thought.
Rather, it should have been here for a while, just waiting.
What are you waiting for, waiting for your letter to be sent?
Staring at the violin case in a daze, Carlota jumped up suddenly, and when he heard the knock on the door, he quickly pulled the door, the speed of the movement was so fast that the guests outside the door were rarely frightened.
"Is there something chasing you behind you?"
Holmes spoke with doubts, and lowered his head to look at the short-breathing soprano, and his voice softened a bit: "Or did you suddenly find out that you didn't pay?"
"..."
Carlota twitched the corners of her mouth, she had no more thoughts, and her mind was all about the "remuneration" that Holmes said.She is considered to be rich now, as long as this great detective doesn't talk too much, she can definitely afford this remuneration.
Moreover, Holmes is not a person who speaks like a lion, and Carlotta is quite at ease about him.
Turning to let someone come in, Carlotta resigned himself to tossing out the tea set again, spurning his own boring actions and carefully pouring tea into the teapot.After making the tea, Carlota went back to the study and simply brought out the paper, pen and ink, and wrote directly under Holmes' perplexed gaze.
"I will reimburse all your travel expenses. You have never paid the rent, so in my opinion, there is no need to pay it. Just offset part of your compensation."
"Miss Lester?"
"Don't interrupt me now and let me continue to deal with it. Talking about feelings is a very expensive thing. You came here to help, and you were my dance partner once in the middle. Although Raoul came to pay for the dress You also contributed so this part has to be added."
"Miss Lester."
"I said that you can be quiet for a while and let me settle the accounts first. After that, a small performance in the cemetery will be an extra cost for you. Later, I went to the basement of the phantom. Since the phantom has weapons, it also poses a danger to your safety, so... "
Carlotta's speech became faster and faster, until the end she didn't even know what she was talking about, and her handwriting became more and more scribbled. After being interrupted twice in a row, she became more irritable and anxious. There was even a hint of escape.
"Carlota."
"what?"
After hearing his name, Carlota raised his head subconsciously. The seat Holmes was sitting in was where he was used to sitting. There was a little backlight but there was still sunlight shining through the corners of his eyes.Realizing this, Carlotta let go of his hand, and heard the sound of the pen tip rubbing against the parchment, and suddenly found that the detective smiled.
When did she actually think that that seat was the seat that Holmes was "used to"? This "habit" was too much for her to ignore, and it also made her understand...
"Mr. Holmes."
"Ok?"
"Afterwards you will be returning to England."
Mechanically taking out this quill pen that he used quite well, Carlotta lowered his head not to look at his face: "Do you have any plans?"
"Let's talk about the remuneration first, Miss Lester."
Carlotta felt that the great detective seemed a little helpless, but he followed his words...
No, when will I follow the other party?Besides Christine herself, it seems that she hasn't gotten along with anyone, right?Seeing that he did owe money to others, Carlotta chose to surrender to the creditor.
After glaring at the other party, he felt that his mood was inexplicably better. Carlotta glanced at the price he roughly calculated on the paper, and felt a little heartache after quickly calculating: "Then, in francs, I will pay you ..."
Three thousand francs! ! ! ! !
Carlotta made a roaring face in her heart, this is her salary for three full months, she still belongs to the high-income group, although this amount of money is not unreasonable, but it can also make her feel a little heartache.
"Three thousand francs is indeed very fair." Holmes smiled, leaned forward slightly, took the "price list" in Carlotta's hand, glanced at it, and then flipped it upside down on the table casually. : "But I think the money is a bit..."
"Low?"
"Do not."
Carlotta could feel that Holmes blocked a lot of sunlight when he stood up, and the backlight made her feel a lot of pressure, not to mention that his original eyes were sharp enough.
When Holmes moved to Carlota's side, he stretched out his hand, bowed slightly and bowed: "I want to use this money to exchange for a request."
"A request worth three thousand francs?"
"Or is this request too expensive? If you like, it can be converted into three thousand-franc requests."
Carlotta felt like swearing.
Before he could continue to say anything, Carlota felt that his wrist was suddenly grasped, and at the same time felt a slight pressure on his wrist. When his heart skipped a beat, he saw Holmes' too focused gaze.
"You seem nervous, your heartbeat is a little too fast."
"You let go of your hand first, and then say this request."
"That disappoints you. These three thousand francs can be converted into fifteen thousand for the handshake fee, and another fifteen thousand for the request."
Do you think this is a vegetable market?Still folded?
Before he had time to complain, Carlotta heard the deep voice of the other party: "This request is difficult for me, but it couldn't be easier for you. I hope you can call me by my name in the future, and Not a surname."
"And I also look forward to calling you Carlotta."
The author has something to say: According to the price at that time, a good cow cost 250 francs, and now a better cow costs more than 4000, which is about 1 franc = 20 yuan now.But the purchasing power is different...and according to Lao Fu's worth... emmm, everyone understands【.
It can be seen from this that Phantom's request for 40 francs per month is simply extortion→_→The monthly salary of 1000w is poisonous, and Lota is only 2 francs a month, which is [-]w a month. The chief soprano has other money to make The method is but she is too lazy to go.
