Jian Na's eyes turned slightly, she raised her arm and said:
"This is the requirement of the theater performance class!"
After saying this, she seemed to relax a little, and her smile became a lot more natural:
"Didn't I tell you that I work part-time as a waitress in a bar to earn some living expenses? This is my boss, I'll talk to him about the salary increase!"
Jane Na pointed to Lumian at the door of room 207 to strengthen the persuasiveness of her words.
Elody glanced at Lumian, then stared at Jane for a few seconds, nodded and said:
"Remember to go home tonight."
Jian Na's smile froze for a second and said:
"Okay."
Seeing that Elloty was busy again and cleaned the other side of the second floor, Jane went down the stairs lightly and left the Golden Rooster Hotel.
Not long after, she saw Lumian following her, and couldn't help but complain:
"Oh! Why is my mother at the Golden Rooster Hotel?"
Lumian thought for a moment and said:
"Blame the old pigeon cage, Mr. Eff, the landlord of the Golden Rooster Inn, is looking for a cleaning lady who only works for half a day, and your mother regularly goes to the old pigeon cage to watch dramas."
Jian Na grinded her teeth and said:
"Those damn evil god believers!"
She immediately threw off her arm:
"I honestly said at night that I am working part-time as an underground singer for next year's tuition fee, and I have made quite a lot of money!"
Lumian glanced at Janna's profile:
"You don't seem to be too nervous and panicked?"
Jian Na took a sip:
"That's my mother, not a man-eating monster.
"She is a very gentle and open-minded person, I didn't tell her what I was doing before, I was just afraid that she would worry."
"She will be worried now." Lumian reminded.
Being an underground singer in dance halls and bars always inevitably involves dealing with gangsters, and being bullied and oppressed happens from time to time.
Jian Na smiled and said in a teasing tone:
"I am now the leader of the Savoyard Party and the protector of the Breeze Ballroom, Charles. Dubois's mistress, who dares to bully me?"
"That's even more dangerous." Lumian laughed.
Jian Na retracted her gaze, looked at the vendors selling on the chaotic streets, and said:
"If my mother can't accept it, I plan to show her my current abilities and make her believe that I can protect myself."
Really? Lumian did not give the example of the perverted Hedsi.
Jian Na put away the expression on her face and said in a slightly low voice:
"She has suffered too much and worked hard for many years, and I want to help her share some so that she doesn't collapse her body."
Lumian thought for a moment and said:
"Since your father died?"
Jian Na's gaze moved to the ground in front of her, and she said "hmm":
"There was an accident in the factory, my father was seriously injured and lay in the hospital for more than ten days, but in the end he was not saved.
"We spent all our original savings and owed a sum of money, a few years ago, I could actually find a good theater to start learning drama, but it wasn't until the beginning of this year that we paid off almost half of the arrears and saved up a sum of tuition again.
After listening quietly, Lumian asked with a slight confusion:
"Is there no compensation for factory accidents?"
"Yes, but that bastard hasn't paid until now!" Jenna gritted her teeth and said, "He has been appealing, the court has been very slow every time, tmd, does he want to drag us all to death?"
Lumian was silent for a second and changed the topic:
"Your mother used to be a theater actress?"
"Yes." Jianna's expression gradually softened, "She has good acting skills and good looks, but most of the managers, sponsors, and owners of the theater are men, and they habitually choose prey in the theater, just like lions patrolling their territory, and if they don't want to obey them, they won't get good roles.
"My mother has a gentle personality, but she is very stubborn at heart, she has always been able to play supporting roles, and was even fired once.
"It was at that time that she met my dad, and they came together and became husband and wife under God's witness. Praise the sun, at that time, my father was working hard to become a skilled worker, and my mother was doing various jobs, trying to save money, while looking for opportunities to become a theater actress again, my mother said, that was the time she missed the most.
"Later, my brother and I were born, and my father and mother became busier, struggling to maintain the family and give us the opportunity to learn.
"By the time we were able to take care of ourselves, my mother was too old to return to the stage, she pinned her hopes on me, wanting to see me become a good drama actor, even if only in supporting roles, while my father wanted my brother to become a real skilled worker."
These words seemed to have been backlogged in Jane Na's heart for a long time, and she didn't have the opportunity to say them until now.
Lumian didn't interrupt her, and waited until she stopped on her own before asking:
"Do you want to be a theater actor yourself?"
Jian Na smiled proudly and contentedly:
"When your mother is a theater fan and good at acting, it's hard not to like drama."
Her smile made Lumian feel a little jealous inexplicably.
He sighed:
"It can be seen that my mother does like drama very much, even if she works as a cleaning lady, she will put on makeup for herself and wear a beautiful wig."
Jian Na nodded lightly and said:
"She said that this will make her feel that she is still young, and she is still a real theater actress who performed on stage back then, and her other jobs are just part-time.
"She is always like this, she will not only show me the sunrise, tell me that the darkness will always pass, and the light will come, but also tell me that even if I am in the dark, I must remember to give myself a little light, only then can I wait until the sun rises."
Speaking of which, Jane Na yearns for the future:
"If I become an underground singer for another year, I will be able to save enough for next year's tuition and pay off most of the remaining arrears, plus the money earned by my mother and brother, we will not have to bear it.
The more Jian Na spoke, the more excited she became, and she couldn't help but raise her arm, as if she wanted to touch the beauty of the future.
Lumi looked at Jane quietly, and suddenly felt that the pent-up emotions in her heart had dissipated a lot.
Hope, what a touching word.
After Jian Na eased down for a few seconds, she felt inexplicably embarrassed and glared sideways at Lumian:
"What are you looking at, haven't you seen others excited?"
Lumian sneered and did not respond.
Jian Na looked at him several times and said to herself:
"Why do I think your condition is a little better?"
"No." Lumian replied succinctly.
At this time, the two of them had already walked into the market avenue and saw that Yuge was posted everywhere. Poster of Artois's successful election to Congress.
The Huge, which is jointly supported by the Sava Party and the Stinger Gang. Artois really became a member of parliament...... I don't know what kind of changes he will bring to the market area...... Lumian took his gaze away from the poster, and something that Franca told him flashed through his mind:
"Ms. Yue", who believes in the "Great Mother", believes that Yuge. Artois is enlightened enough.
…………
In the afternoon, before leaving for Mr. K in the boulevard area, Lumian set up an altar in the bedroom on the second floor of the Breeze Ballroom.
After making the "spiritual wall" and lighting three candles in the order from left to right from god to man, and dripping with essential oils and hydrosol, Lumian took two steps back in the hazy environment and said in a deep voice:
"A fool who does not belong to this era, a mysterious lord above the gray mist, and a yellow and black king who presides over good luck."
A faint gray mist filled the air, and an unsettling meaning surged around it.
Holding back the dullness of his thoughts and the itching of the flesh and blood under his skin, Lumian looked at the blue-black candle and recited the following spells in Hermes according to the teachings of the "magician" lady:
"I pray to you;
"Pray for Your Blessings......"
After a series of operations, Lumian saw the divine angel that seemed to be condensed from pure light.
At the same time, he vaguely heard a dreamy sigh.
A sigh from infinite heights.
The brilliant and unusually illusory angel descended from above, opened his arms, and embraced Lumian.
The pair of wings of light then closed and wrapped around him.
When Lumian regained consciousness, everything became normal.
…………
Near evening, 19 Scheer Street, Boulevard.
Lumian saw Mr. K again in the basement.
He was still wearing a big hood and a black robe, sitting silently in a red back chair.
Mr. K looked at Lumian, nodded lightly, and said in a low voice:
"I am very satisfied with your actions, and without knowing it, everything you do is in line with the teachings of our Lord, and you will fight against those who are evil!"
Mr. K paused and said:
"Have you thought about it?"
"I've thought about it." Lumian lowered his head and said, "You have shown me the light of the Lord."
"Haha." Mr. K suddenly burst into laughter, laughing wildly and giving people a feeling of losing their minds.
After a few seconds, he calmed down, did not let the attendants around him evade, and said directly:
"The honorific name of my Lord is 'the Creator of all, the all-knowing and almighty God, the Lord behind the veil of shadow, the ruler of the spiritual world, the fallen nature of all living beings', choose three for yourself, and pray to Him in Hermisian."
Just by hearing Mr. K's description, Lumian had his clothes, skin, flesh and bones completely dissolved, leaving only the horror of pure mind and self-awareness.
He couldn't help but tremble and chanted almost instinctively:
"The Creator of all, the all-knowing and almighty God, the Lord behind the curtain of shadow......"
Lumian couldn't think carefully, so he subconsciously chose the first three sentences.
Almost at the same time, he felt that his surroundings suddenly became dark, as if covered with a thick curtain.
Behind the illusory and deep shadow curtain, a pair of eyes were vaguely staring at Lumian, piercing his consciousness and making him nearly unconscious.
I don't know how long it took, Lumian regained his thoughts, only to feel sticky cold sweat all over his body.
Mr. K stood up, his low voice with an obvious smile:
"From now on, you are our brother and truly become one of us.
"We are a secret organization that believes in the 'True Creator', and our name is 'Aurora Society'."
"Aurora Society"? Lumian was stunned for a while.
Isn't this the terrorist organization that helped me take the blame?
From this point of view, it seems that the official extraordinary person has not found the wrong person......
I really became a member of the "Aurora Society"......
Mr. K immediately asked the surrounding waiters to exit the basement, and then said to Lumian:
"Gardner. Martin is a member of the Iron Blood Cross, a secret organization that originally believed in our Lord, but in recent years, they have gradually distanced themselves from us, stopped praying frequently, and suspected that they were planning something very important.
"I sent you to join them in the hope that you will find out why and figure out what they are doing."
