Chapter 539
Wheels wrapped in iron rolled over the wide road, and small stones splashed out, and I didn’t know what they hit, and they creaked.
A carriage with an elegant appearance, but with a lot of smoke and dust on the outer wall, shuttled through the streets full of cars and pedestrians, something abrupt.
“hu I didn’t enter the city for half a month. I miss the atmosphere here.”
Donald looked at the city scenery outside through the car window.. …. there is nothing to see. As a city developed with minerals, the industrial structure of Rock Castle is destined that this city can only become a city of heavy industry, and this means that the appearance of the entire city is absolutely impossible to see where to go. , at least not with those big chimneys billowing black smoke.
Of course, for Donald, who spent most of his half a month in wasteland and remote towns, this kind of city is already a very good resting spot.
“We’ll split up later.”
Charles maintains her usual grace, looked towards Donald.
“According to the plan you said earlier, shouldn’t you take me to meet your friend next?”
Donald sipped at the sudden request from Sharis. He pursed his lips and asked back.
“I’ll take you to see her, but that’s only after I communicate with her and ask for her consent. I remember I should have told you before that her situation was with me. There are some similarities, she and I are friends…just friends!”
The implication of this remark is very clear that the relationship between Sharis and the other party is not good enough to be casual. Bring a stranger to visit.
Of course, Donald wouldn’t believe it if there wasn’t a desire to avoid Donald discussing something with her friends first.
It’s just that it’s all here, and Donald wasn’t ready to turn his back on Sharis at the end, so after a little hesitation, he raised his hand and knocked on the wall of the compartment behind him. Barlow, who was driving in front, immediately understood. Stop the car.
“I’m waiting for your reply, but please don’t make me wait too long, I’ve always been a patient person, but it’s about something worth waiting for.”
Opening the car door and getting off at the entrance of a restaurant, feeling the hustle and bustle of the assaults the senses crowd, Donald pressed his silk top hat and quickly turned his eyes to a nearby cafe.
A hot cup of bitter coffee and a few plates of delicate little cakes.
Near the window, Donald surveyed the people passing by outside, occasionally turning his eyes to the things on their cheeks and hands, thinking about what these people were doing or what they were going to do.
Bitterness and sweetness are intertwined in the mouth. It tastes much better than the barbecue and the vegetable soup in the town. It feels very good.
“Sir, since you’ve ordered more than 2 shillings, here’s our coupon for the concerts today and tomorrow.”
The cafe’s The waiter put a long card on the table, said with a faint smile.
“Concert?”
He picked up the card and glanced at it, and found that there was a concert at 1:30 in the afternoon, and it was already 12:30 noon. It is estimated that it will take half a day, so I shook the card and asked,
“Is it good, I don’t want to spend money to find fault with my ears.”
“Of course, this is a concert at the Castle of the Rock, which used to be a highly sought-after event…only now it’s not so perfect because of some changes in the city, but I promise you it won’t let you down Yes, after all, although the place will change, the local artists still haven’t left.”
The waiter seemed to be quite confident about the concert, and there was a little pride on his face when he introduced it.
“Sounds good, I’ll check it out.”
Having another piece of pastry, Donald is thinking about where to pass the time while he’s waiting, regardless of the music Would be good or not, at least better than sitting in this cafe all afternoon.
With a goal in mind, Donald naturally wouldn’t continue to sit and drink coffee and then got up and left.
Wandering the streets with Finger, the latter has been staying on the carriage for a long time, rarely letting the wind out, and now he finally landed, and he was very jubilant and swirled back and forth beside Donald, Smell the mixed smell in the air, and find the wooden box by the road to sharpen your claws.
Donald is also enjoying this rare private leisure time at this time. This journey with Sharis is undoubtedly exhausting. The two seem to be cooperative allies, but they can In fact, there is still a question mark on the level of trust between them. Although each has compromises, it is always necessary to be careful.
“Stop the industrial invasion!”
“Art needs more living space!”
“Stop the industrial invasion!”
……
Turn around a street corner, there is a parade on the road chanting slogans, Donald stood by and watched for a while and found that there were still a lot of people, and most of them were dressed. A decent young man or a middle age person can occasionally see a few Old Lady and old gentleman.
What these people are calling for is written on the slogan they hold in their hands, roughly to let the government on the Rock Castle side stop industrial expansion and restore the art city to its former glory.
And what really attracted Donald to stop and watch was the mixed band in front of the team, which was probably formed to show the importance of art, playing some movements while walking, surprisingly nice, surrounded by People who stop by like Donald are the best proof.
“We are a rock castle. In the past, artists from the surrounding areas scrambled to come to us to hold concerts as honors, but now we have to beg each other… What, it’s all those stupid people in the government who made this city what it is now!”
Someone complained to his companion on the side of the road, and his companion was obviously very dissatisfied, talking about the factory The kind of thing that the black smoke can cause physical damage to people and it quickly resonated quite widely.
Industrial development is not all good, there is no doubt about it.
But Donald doesn’t have the heart to pay attention to this now. At first, he just stopped because of curiosity, but as he followed the parade and walked the section of the road, he unexpectedly found that his mental state had changed. positive change.
Perhaps normal people will have such a change in their mood when they hear beautiful music, but Donald is different. As a wizard of the Awakening Level, his will is not so easily shaken. In the case of preparation, even Stefani’s innate talent effect could not shake his mental state, how could such an ordinary music team make him change.
There is only one possibility that some of the people in this music team are heretics or some other ability!
Similarly, the effect of music that can transform the spirit of the wizard of Donald’s level on the ordinary person is needless to say. After walking two streets, there are many more joins. People who march or people who are intoxicated with music.
Donald followed and observed for a while, and soon he found that not only in the band, but also in the parade behind it were several silver banjos decorated with leaves hanging around their necks. pendant.
This is a token, Donald is sure of it, but for a while he can’t remember what the emblem represents. I don’t know if I have never seen this information before or if my memory is too long, so I don’t remember it. quite clear.
Fortunately this doesn’t seem to be some evil spell, the effect of these music is only to make people happy and involuntarily want to listen to it for a while, so it seems that someone in the parade wants to Build momentum this way.
Donald does not mean to stop this, even if he himself is supporting the industrialization of his own city, but that does not mean that he likes such large factories that destroy the environment.
After asking the passersby who knew that the parade would always go to the place where the concert was held to give speeches, Donald didn’t mean to leave, he just followed, and the right was to take a walk to pass the time.
Rock Castle Grand Theater.
The end of the parade, when Donald arrived here, he found that there were already many people standing on the Plaza of the Grand Theater. In addition to the audience who were walking inside, there were also some people who might have come to listen to the speech. Come, stand in front of the theater and see that it is a temporary wooden platform, waiting for the speaker to appear.
Donald naturally wouldn’t listen to this kind of speech. When he got outside the theater, he immediately prepared to go in. Now there are only a few minutes before the concert starts.
However, he stopped as he approached the door, frowning involuntarily together.
He turned his gaze to the two people at the main entrance of the theater, and squinted at them. The two also noticed the presence of Donald, and after looking at each other, they quickly walked towards him.
“These guys can really be seen everywhere. Is the world outside in such a mess?”
Donald didn’t expect, he just wanted When I came to a concert, the people who checked the tickets at the gate were actually two demon contractors. He who owned Tome of Domination locked these two people almost immediately. On the contrary, those two people also noticed him.
Taking Finger into his arms, Donald raised his finger to the two of them, palm facing up, hooked his index finger out, and immediately stepped back to leave. This crowded square is really not hands-on. Good place.
He who hasn’t fought for a long time is unexpectedly excited at this time!
