v2 Chapter 252: End of the show (1/2)
Zhang Heng briefly dealt with the skin trauma, and then returned to the Queen's Theatre and sat back in his seat.
At this point the opera is coming to an end.
On the square outside the bullfighting arena, Escamilo and Carmen walked into the field with their heads crowded, while Carmen stayed outside. At this time, Ragged Don Jose found She begged for recombination, but Carmen was indifferent, and at the same time cheers came from the arena.
Escamilo defeated the Bulls, Carmen took off the ring that Don José gave her, threw it to the ground, and wanted to rush into the field to share the joy with his lover, but the desperate Don José took it out of his arms. With the dagger already prepared, he stabbed Carmen. When the crowd walked out of the arena, he saw only Carmen in a pool of blood.
Don Jose shouted, ”I killed her, Carmen, my dear Carmen!”
At this point, the whole play ends.
Then all the actors of the crew came to the stage, the lights turned on, and thunderous applause sounded from the theater. There is no doubt that the first show of the new drama ”Carmen” in London has achieved unprecedented success.
Zhang Heng also stood up and applauded with the people around him.
When the performance was over, Zhang Heng went backstage to congratulate Erin Adler.
And the water that had been surrounded by the congratulators was leaking, and even the Prime Minister's wife came down.
Zhang Heng did not compete with the people inside, and stood quietly, until everyone was almost gone, and then went in. Irene Adler ’s dressing table was already surrounded by flowers, because it could n’t fit, even The space next to it was also full, while others had only a few bunches of flowers.
”I now know how much Londoners like you.” Zhang Hengdao.
”Really, unfortunately you are not a Londoner. I left you halfway through when I saw you,” Irene Adler said.
”Uh ... my friend and I have something urgent to do.”
”Well, you can see how urgent you are.” Adler raised his eyebrows and pointed to Zhang Heng's dress. ”You look terrible, you're about to catch up with Don Jose in the show.”
”Actually I just went to the barber shop.”
”I can see that their service is rude enough. Give me the name of the barbershop, and I will avoid it in the future.” The female singer laughed.
”.........”
As a person who has read the original book, Zhang Heng certainly keeps a certain alert to Irene Adler, but it must be acknowledged that the latter is indeed a very attractive person. No wonder the King of Bohemia will never forget.
And strictly speaking, the case was the king who made mistakes first, abandoned Adler for his own status, and married the princess of Scandinavia, which led to the subsequent photo door. From the perspective of Holmes, he In fact, I am more inclined to be a female singer, and I am rather indifferent to what the king did.
That's why he only paid for Adler's photo after the incident, and refused the king's handshake.
