Facing Soruns’s inquiry, the manager of the Ladoga Grand Theater was chilled to the bone.
If Soruns had only asked about a young Asian individual, he might really have thought about it, seeing how many people he had encountered today that fit the description.
But then Soruns ntioned that beside that person, there was a beautiful lady and a burly gentleman.
This image suddenly beca vivid!
It imdiately brought to the mind of the theater manager three figures.
It’s them!
The manager’s mind buzzed, and his mind went blank.
When he t Mr. Viktor outside the theater, wasn’t it those three who were chatting with him?
Afterwards, for so unknown reason, those three left.
Viktor told him he didn’t wish to see them in the grand theater again.
Thus, the theater manager stationed a few people at the entrance to tell them to refuse admittance to any group of two Asian n and one Asian woman.
Never did he expect that these three ancestors turned out to be people Mr. Soruns knew!
Soruns, oh!
The na implies great fortune, and conversely, great misfortune!
The theater manager’s heart raced, pounding, at a hundred and eighty beats per minute.
Soruns stood right before him, appearing not fierce, his deanor far from sinister.
But the manager felt as if he was facing a lion, and he was the ant.
Should Mr. Soruns find out it was he who ordered his people to block the person Soruns was looking for.
The manager couldn’t envision how he was going to face his end.
At the very least, his superiors, for the sake of peace, would certainly kick him out, and the entire circle of managers would likely not dare to hire him, then cos the banks urging for bill paynts like snowflakes...
Out of fear, the manager of the Ladoga Grand Theater couldn’t help shivering slightly, and couldn’t help casting a glance at Viktor.
Though it was he who did the deed, it was Viktor who made the request.
He won’t take the fall for this!
As for why Viktor clashed with those three Asians, what the reason was, whether he knew they had such a fearso background...he didn’t care!
"Mr. Viktor, you, you better admit it quickly, or I will spill the beans!" the manager thought anxiously, inwardly.
Seeing the theater manager’s look at himself, Viktor felt like an army of warriors clashing in his heart, with eight hundred soldiers rallying north.
Utterly alarming!
But inwardly, he kept shouting—
"Those three know Soruns? No, how is this possible!"
Viktor couldn’t bring himself to believe it.
"It wasn’t them, it was him! Soruns’s first question was about him!"
Viktor’s pupils shrank abruptly, envisioning the figure of Bai Xiaosheng.
"But it’s impossible, impossible!" Viktor denied himself repeatedly.
"Three years ago, our Sharvey Band wasn’t even a tenth of our current standing, that young fellow needed to resort to tricks to deal with us. Three years later, he can now converse with Soruns? How could it be!"
"It must be a coincidence, a misunderstanding, they’re not the sa group! Asians look quite alike, perhaps it was soone else. Yes, it must be soone else!"
Viktor’s emotions fluctuated.
While he tried hard to steady himself, seeing the theater manager actually glance at him, it was enough to scare him out of his wits.
Why is this bastard looking at ? Is he planning to tattle?
Viktor’s first reaction was this.
He couldn’t allow that to happen, he needed to speak first to lessen the trouble on his side.
"Maybe it’s not as bad as I think, maybe that kid is just running errands for Mr. Soruns."
Before speaking, Viktor quickly thought.
"Yes, yes, perhaps this ti, it was just Mr. Soruns inviting these people to watch the Yegor Band perform, and it just happened that the runner was that Asian kid..."
"Or perhaps that Asian kid suggested to Mr. Soruns to co watch this performance!"
"An important person asking soone running their errands right after arriving is nothing unusual..."
People have an instinct to seek benefit and avoid harm, even if the logic is flawed, they’re willing to believe what seems ’reasonable’ to them.
Now, the more Viktor thought about it, the more ’reasonable’ it seed!
At this mont, Soruns slightly lowered his eyelids, glanced at the theater manager, then at Viktor.
The two of them had abnormal expressions, and there were small ’exchange of glances’.
Everything was observed thoroughly by Soruns.
Bai Xiaosheng has never broken an appointnt, nor has he failed to wait here for these ’guests’.
That could only an, sothing was up!
Soruns’s gaze instantly lost its warmth, becoming sowhat sharp.
Old Hawk, Feng Xiangnan, Dyson, these astute individuals, also sensed the problem here imdiately.
"What exactly is going on?" Soruns’s voice was slightly cold as he asked.
The theater manager wanted to speak, but Viktor quickly seized the opportunity to interrupt—
"I saw those three, they said they were going to the Dorado Theater." Viktor hurried to say.
Viktor felt that saying the ’truth’ now was better than the theater manager ’completely confessing’.
The theater manager also looked at Viktor with so surprise, not understanding how he dared to be so ’proactive’.
"Dorado Theater?" Soruns cast a doubtful look at Viktor.
"Yes, Dorado Theater. Because of so unknown reason, Mr. Yegor, the leader of the Yegor Band, took the main band to that small theater, leaving only a part of the group and his protégé here..." Viktor said ambiguously.
He couldn’t tell the truth, nor dared to lie, so he spoke vaguely.
