It was still a bit difficult to use the magic [Gravity] from a long distance, and Alice began to miss the enemies standing opposite her, waiting to be used as "human cannonballs".

Escaping from her memories, Alice looked intently at the two short figures standing on the balcony.The child standing next to Starlight is Vician's other brother, little Victor.

Alice bent down and asked little Victor, who was holding the corner of her clothes, "Can you tell me why you are in the tree? Don't worry, I won't scold you."

Maybe it was because Alice was so gentle, but little Victor honestly told the reason.

"I just wanted to scare my brother, who made him eat my cake. So I thought about climbing up the tree, and then entering the room from the balcony to scare him." As he said this, little Victor started using Pointing to the tree that had just trapped him and Starlight.

"Then you couldn't get down? Then Starlight found you?" Alice then asked.

Alice looked at Starlight, who nodded to her, indicating that Alice's guess was correct and everything was true.

"Xingguang and he have been waiting in the tree for a long time! Until the master comes, we have been staying in the tree!" Xingguang replied, there was no trace of fear in her sentence, but there was some excitement.

What is a naughty kid? This is a naughty kid. He is very powerful by doing whatever it takes to get revenge on his brother.

Alice was "impressed" with little Victor for a moment. She took off her coat and put it on little Victor's body. He found that he was shivering, and it seemed that he had caught a cold.

The temperature difference between day and night in Les Penaud is still a bit large.

After fastening little Victor's coat, Alice motioned for him to walk into her room with Starlight, which was still very warm.

"Thank you."

Although the sound was barely audible, Alice still heard it, and she smiled and remained silent.

After resting in the room for a while, Alice took Starlight and Little Victor upstairs to find Vician.As for why not go to Thaddeus directly?That's because little Victor was reluctant.

Go up to the third floor and turn left from the corridor to find the room with the light still on. There is a man named Wei Xi'an in there.

Knock, knock, knock, three crisp knocks sounded in the corridor at night.Almost as soon as the knock on the door rang, footsteps came from behind the door.

With a "swish", Wei Xi'an opened the door, and the two people in his room rushed out in an instant, causing the eyes of the three people outside the door to hurt.

"What's wrong? You're up so late, do you want to come and chat with me?" Vesian held the door frame with one hand while looking down at Alice, who had just reached his shoulder.

"I'm not here to find you, it's your brother who wants to come to you." After saying that, Alice pulled out little Victor from behind.

Little Victor stood uneasily by the door. He quietly raised his eyes and looked at Visian's face.He decided that as long as his eldest brother showed the slightest sign of anger on his face, he would turn around and run away.

"This is what happened..." Alice recounted everything that had happened before.

This is just a story of a naughty kid’s failed revenge.

Vician could only sigh after listening to Alice's retelling.He had long heard about the bad relationship between his two younger brothers, but he never expected that the two people who had been left unattended two years after he left home would "evolve" into the bears they are now.

"Thank you, thank you for your hard work. I will take him back to his room first. If you want...just wait here for a while. I have something to talk to you about." Wei Xi'an straightened up and pulled him over who wanted to escape. Little Victor.

Alice watched them come out of the room in confusion. They left in such a hurry that they even forgot to close the door.

Alice, who was left alone in the room, sat restrainedly on the sofa. Her eyes wandered around, observing the room curiously.

The room where Wei Xi'an lived was quite different from the room she lived in. From the furnishings to the decoration, everything was very different.

Alice was very interested in these things, but what caught her eye the most was the pile of files on the desk.

The amount of files was more than what Visian had in Pergade, but that was a matter of course.

After sitting on the sofa and waiting for a long time, Alice felt sleepy. She fell asleep on the sofa in a daze.It wasn't until Wei Xi'an returned that she suddenly woke up because of the sound of the door closing.

"I, I wasn't asleep!" Alice secretly wiped the corners of her mouth to prevent there were still saliva marks on her mouth.

"It's good that you're not asleep, because what I'm going to tell you next is very serious. Please be sure to stay awake."

This was the first time that Visian spoke in such a serious tone. Alice was completely awake and stared at Visian without blinking, waiting for the other party's next conversation.

Chapter 118 The ruined theater troupes?

She sat on the sofa and waited until she fell asleep. Just when Alice was about to enter a deep sleep, the sound of footsteps and the sound of a door closing woke her up.

After waking up sleepily, Alice wiped the corners of her mouth, sat up and watched Vician walk to the desk.

"I'm awake!" Alice said to Vician.

"It's good that you're not asleep, because what I'm going to tell you next is very serious. Please be sure, be sure! Stay awake!"

This was the first time that Vician spoke in such a serious tone, and Alice completely woke up.She stared at Vishian without blinking, waiting for the other person's next conversation.

Visian walked to the desk and picked up a stack of documents, then walked back to Alice again. He said, "Do you remember what I told you about the theater company this afternoon?"

Alice nodded, she was not so sleepy that she would forget what happened a few hours ago.She raised her head and replied: "It's the troupe that suddenly said it wouldn't perform, right? Didn't you go there to watch it this afternoon?"

Wei Xi'an did not answer, but handed over the document in his hand and motioned for Alice to look through the document.Alice reached out to take it, and then began to read through it one by one. The documents recorded were the testimonies of the troupe members compiled by Wei Xi'an.

When Alice only read the first few pages, she had no idea why Vician would record this.

Originally, she thought that what was recorded in these documents was just an incident of "the theater troupe was maliciously destroyed", but when Alice flipped through the last few pages, she felt something strange.

People with white hair and people wearing strange pendants around their necks appear repeatedly in the testimonies of troupe members.

If other people saw or heard it, they would just think it was strange, but for Visian and Alice, who had a deep connection with someone, it was not something that could be explained by just "strange".

"C-could this be..." Alice stammered. The document in her hand seemed to be given heat, making her feel very hot.

If she could, Alice really wanted to pretend that she had never seen the pile of documents in her hand.

"It would be fine if it's not. But if it is..." Wei Xi'an also had a headache about this. He glanced at Alice, and then continued: "But that's not the reason why I kept you here today. I'm looking for you. There’s one more thing to do.”

After the words fell, Wei Xi'an stepped forward and patted Alice's shoulder hard twice.She was shocked by Visian, and in this state she accepted Visian's commission.

Vician entrusted Alice to help him find another theater group that was willing to perform. There was a reason why he went to the theater group instead of deleting the performance from the Poseidon Festival's to-do list.

First of all, during the Poseidon Festival, Les Peno has an ancient tradition:

On the night of the first day of the Poseidon Festival, a performance must be performed in the city's grand theater.According to legend, this performance was actually dedicated to the god of the sea.

The performance is performed not only to calm the anger of Poseidon, but also to pray for the blessings of nature in Les Peno in the coming year.

Therefore, this performance is indispensable. In previous years, the performers were all performed by the Sirius Troupe, but this year, due to unexpected circumstances, the troupe chose to abandon the performance.

The reason why the troupe abandoned the performance may indeed be because of "Samuel" and his men who suddenly appeared inside the troupe and wreaked havoc.

But because the actors did not tell everything that happened, Alice and Vician could only guess at all the possible reasons.

They had too little information to piece together the reason why the entire "troupe was destroyed."

Trying to understand something that you cannot understand is very taxing on your brain cells. When Vician and Alice discussed this matter anxiously until dawn the next day, neither of them came to any useful conclusion.

"I can only put aside the matter of Samuel for now. Go to the city this afternoon and let me know if you have any suitable people to ask." Wei Xi'an collapsed on the other end of the sofa, worried about last night's discussion. The conclusion was drawn.

Alice also gave up thinking. She rubbed her stiff and sore neck, picked up Starlight, who was still sleeping, and moved out of Vishian's room step by step.

"Going to find a new theater troupe?" After placing the starlight, Alice came to the street of Les Penaud.

This time Ivan Bell did not go with her. I heard from a passing maid that Ivan Bell and Farrell went to the Knight Academy together and have not yet returned.

Although I am very interested in the "Knight Academy", commissioning still comes first.

Alice cheered up and started asking questions on the street.

Don't ask, don't know, I'm startled when I ask.

According to the descriptions of passers-by, their favorite theater groups have either postponed their performances recently or chosen to disband.At some point, the news spread like wildfire that "the theater troupe was cursed by God".

Other theater troupes that have not yet been affected also immediately decided to enter a hiatus in order to use this method to protect themselves.

Everyone is superstitious, and Alice cannot condemn anyone from her own point of view.

But this is a very serious matter. Without a troupe willing to perform, the Poseidon Festival cannot be held normally.

Or, did those people deliberately prevent the Poseidon Festival from being held?

Alice, who was thinking while walking, unexpectedly came to the square she had visited yesterday. Without the troupe's performance, the square was a little deserted.

From a distance, Alice scanned the faces of the crowd one by one.She saw faces with different expressions, and then stopped at a man sitting by the fountain.

"He is...Romeo?" Alice felt that the man looked inexplicably familiar. After searching her memory, she came to the fact that the man was Mr. Romeo, the leading actor of the troupe.

After successfully catching the target, Alice immediately became energetic. She walked through the crowd lightly and ran towards where Romeo was.

On the other side, Romeo, who was sitting by the fountain, suddenly felt a large shadow covering his head, and at the same time a clear voice was calling his name.

"Did God hear my prayer?" Romeo slowly raised his head, and the sunlight shone into his lifeless pupils.

The girl facing the light was calling his name softly, and her posture was as dazzling as if she was a messenger sent by God to save him.

"...???" Alice put her hand in front of Romeo and waved it. Although the other party responded, his eyes were still unfocused.

After a while, Romeo's consciousness gradually became brighter, and he realized that the girl in front of him was not a "messenger", but an audience member who had seen their troupe perform.

"Excuse me, what's the matter with you? Ah! If I'm here to ask about the acting schedule... I'm sorry..."

Romeo, who returned to normal, apologized to Alice. He stood up straight and looked directly at Alice in front of him.

And Alice said to him...

—TBC—

Chapter 119 Prescription for Cure

Facing Mr. Romeo, whose eyes suddenly glowed, Alice said, "What's bothering you? If possible, can you tell me? Maybe I can help."

In fact, there is a reason for Alice to say this to Romeo. If you lend a helping hand when a person is very depressed, or just act as a listener, it is easy to win the other person's favor.

In short, Alice is taking the opportunity to increase Romeo's favorability.

This sentence was still very effective. After Romeo regained his energy, his expression also relaxed. He did not resist Alice's conversation, but told the reason why he was depressed.

Romeo sat down again dejectedly. He turned his head and looked at his reflection in the water and said, "We will never be able to get on the stage again. The leader..."

Romeo's voice was choked up when he thought of the leader. He expected that the return of the leader would bring "prosperity" to their White Dove Troupe, but he did not expect that it would bring "destruction" to the troupe.

Everything they owned was sold, including props, costumes and scenery, all items used for performances, in exchange for good medicine.

But no matter how much medicine he drank, the captain's illness still didn't get better.

Just before he walked out of the crude gathering place, his regiment leader became so ill that he began to vomit blood.

"The leader's illness is too serious and he will die soon. After he dies, our troupe will also die with him..." Romeo lowered his head, his cocoa-colored eyes flashing with sadness.

Alice sat quietly next to Romeo, looking at the frustrated and shocked man with concern.She continued to persuade him softly: "Tell me the details, maybe I can do something."
