Chapter 492 Joker 1
"Her Royal Highness Princess Constance Gabrielle is the eldest daughter of Archduchess Maria of Luxembourg and Prince John of Bourbon-Parma, and the younger sister of Archduke Augustin, who was officially named Crown Princess two years ago."
"Her Royal Highness is a beautiful and talented person. At the age of 20, she has become the president of the Youth Red Cross and the designated diplomatic representative of the Principality of Luxembourg."
"Her Royal Highness and the Luxembourg delegation traveled to the UK to fulfill the diplomatic ties between the two countries. Her Royal Highness Princess Constance brought tens of thousands of pieces of cloth and precious stones to the British Empire. The British Empire will also consider relaxing restrictions on sea routes..."
"Shameless!" Ivy and Beatrice cursed in unison.
"After visiting Queen Victoria, Her Royal Highness asked to go out of the palace for a tour. She wanted to experience the British style before returning. Her Majesty the Queen gladly agreed."
"At that time, my brother was just working for the Queen. After the battle, he wanted to go home and rest with his military achievements, but the Queen waved her hand and sent him to escort the princess to enjoy the beauty of London, but..."
Christine sighed, looking helpless and compromising.
"My brother had already bought a train ticket to Austria. He couldn't refuse the Queen's request, and the Princess's safety needed to be resolved urgently. He couldn't bear to refund the Austrian ticket. After thinking about it, he thought of me, his sister..."
"So, I became the princess's escort knight and brought her to the Chinese dock..."
"So how did you meet Joshua?" Ivy asked.
After a big fight with Ivy, Joshua ran out alone. At that time, Christine had not received the message from her brother.
"Joshua and that witch lady..." Christine thought about it seriously.
"We had just entered the Chinese market at that time. There were so many shops and goods inside that Her Royal Highness the Princess and I were overwhelmed by the choices."
"After a while, the princess was attracted by a cold weapon shop. She touched and looked at everything there, and couldn't let go of everything. But I was not interested in cold weapons. When I was about to go out to see if there was a jewelry store next door, the noise not far away caught my attention."
"It's a magic shop that mainly sells magic supplies. The manager is a clown with dark circles under his eyes. In order to sell the goods, he will perform magic in front of everyone..."
"Clown?" Ivy suddenly became panicked, and her voice suddenly rose. "I said clowns are not allowed in the Chinese dock!"
"I also remember that there was an explanation on your poster, but... the patrolling police seemed to ignore this store, as if it was just an empty space where a crowd of people gathered..."
Christine blinked, her expression becoming a little cringe-worthy.
"In fact, if you think about it carefully, there is a big problem with that store. The magic props they sell are almost all terrible torture instruments in history. I have carefully looked at them, and there is not a single blade that is not stained with coagulated black blood..."
"What! Where is this store? Take me there first!"
Hearing this, Ivy stopped immediately. She looked nervous, as if the end of the world was about to come.
"Ms. Ivy!" Christine shook her head. "That store is gone, and the clown with dark circles under his eyes has also disappeared..."
"Please listen to me first to finish what happened."
Christine held Ivy's arm and spoke half coquettishly and half politely.
But Ivy was not comforted by Christine. She was shaking all over and her face was pale and purple.
A clown suddenly appeared at the Chinese Wharf and had some connection with the people around her. It was impossible for her not to take it seriously.
"At that time, the clown store manager was performing a magic trick for the crowd. It was a very classic magic trick of transforming a living person, and the two people he chose were the laughing Joshua and Miss Bell."
"I'd like to add here that Joshua seems like a different person... These are just my humble opinions," Christine said, rubbing her hands.
"He was in high spirits, smiling at everyone he saw, walking unsteadily, and shaking his head from time to time, just like... just like..."
Kristen glanced at Ivy and her voice suddenly became as small as a mosquito: "He seems to have taken drugs..."
"Did he take drugs?" Beatrice covered her mouth and giggled for a while, "Bell must have drunk too much of the failed potion!"
"I'm more inclined to believe this possibility." Ivy nodded and motioned for Christine to continue.
"The prop used in the magic show was a guillotine. The clown put a sign in front of the stage that read: This is the guillotine used to execute Louis XVI. It has a history of more than 100 years. If you don't believe it, please commit suicide, mi~"
What the hell is going on...
Christine cleared her throat and soon became dignified and generous again.
"No one present agreed, because the guillotine's blade was smooth and shiny, without any rust or curling, and at most there were only a few flies flying in the air."
"Seeing that we didn't believe him, the clown took out a cantaloupe from somewhere, put the cantaloupe on the guillotine, and used a knife to cut the rope on the side. The guillotine on the guillotine fell quickly, and with a crisp sound, the cantaloupe was immediately cut in half."
"Everyone present was frightened. The clown distributed cantaloupes to the people in the front row, wiped the juice splashed on the guillotine, and then hung the guillotine high up."
"Then it was Joshua and Miss Bell. He stuck a cantaloupe in the round hole for the head, and placed Joshua and Miss Bell on the high platform next to the round hole. It was a dangerous position. If the guillotine fell, their waists would be cut in half before the cantaloupe."
"When I got here, I was already starting to get worried. The guillotine hanging above them was flashing with a sharp light, and the tip of the blade was pointing directly at their waists."
"Joshua and Miss Bell were still laughing and joking, and the clown was directing the audience to applaud."
"It seems that no one takes life seriously, no one takes killing seriously, and everything is just a happy and magical magic... When the upper body and the lower body are separated, cheer, and when the upper body and the lower body are put together, cheer even more... But I don’t understand, when everything is unknown, why should we applaud and cheer for that tiny chance?" Christine panted and choked slightly.
"Someone else seemed to see my fear, and she kindly comforted me, saying that this magic trick had just been performed, and when the knife fell, the person would really be split in two, and blood would splatter on everyone's face, warm and gentle like milk..."
"I was scared, but I didn't walk away. The man continued to say to me: It doesn't matter, Mr. Clown will sew them up stitch by stitch, and when the whole circle is sewn, the person will come back to life! If you don't believe me, just watch!"
Christine's lips trembled and her face turned pale.
"Then the man... lifted up her clothes, and I saw her waist..."
"Her waist was covered with a circle of crooked thick black lines. At first glance, she looked like a big black centipede!"
At this point, Christine was almost speechless. His pupils constricted, as if he saw the horrible scar again.
"There are some purple and sticky flesh next to the black lines, and dark purple blood flows down every other black line, like a caterpillar attached to the skin..."
"Not only that, the people around me lifted their clothes towards me, as if they had planned it in advance. Like her, they had a crooked black line sewn on their waists..."
Ivy almost didn't catch her breath. Her voice trembled slightly and her tone was heavy: "That is to say..."
"That is to say, all the people crowded there were cut into two pieces by the clown's guillotine..."
