Chapter 218 Janna's Concerns As soon as Janna finished talking about the place where she studied acting, she felt the living room suddenly become extremely quiet. Both Franca and Lumian looked at her with some inexplicable meaning in their eyes. The waiter named Charlie could not control the changes in his expression and his body's reactions. He obviously shrank back with fear in his eyes. "Is there any problem?" Janna asked unconfidently. At this moment, Lumian took out a gold Louis and flicked it towards Janna's feet, while his eyes watched her every move, including the slightest changes in her expression. "Fuck! What do you mean?" Janna looked down at the gold Louis blankly and questioned Lumian angrily. Lumian's expression returned to normal. He tilted his head and said to Franka with a smile: "Not 'Scrooge.' "Of course!" Franca responded with a mixture of anger and amusement. "We often meet. Although she is a bit frugal, she is definitely not a 'stingy person'. Moreover, she doesn't show the characteristics of a 'sex addict', and her acting skills aren't that great either." Halfway through her speech, Franka unconsciously showed a little regret. "What on earth are you guys talking about?" Janna was so confused that she even forgot to swear. "You explain it." Lumian said to Franca. Franca stood up and tried to get Janna to sit in the same armchair with her, but Janna felt it was too crowded, so she chose a single sofa and put the pile of normal clothes in her hands on her knees.
"Do you still remember that pervert named Hedsey?" Franka sat back in the armchair with a little disappointment. Jana answered without hesitation: "Remember, damn, he died so easily!" It’s not easy... Lumian muttered silently as he recalled the miserable state of Hedesy’s lower body. Using this as an introduction, Franca talked about the Society of the Bliss, the sequences belonging to the evil god "The Mother Tree of Desire", the relationship between the Society of the Bliss and the old pigeon cage, and the various things about the True Ef, Rentas, Maipu Meier and Susanna Mathis. Janna, who got all her knowledge of mysticism from Franca, was more and more shocked the more she listened, as if someone had opened the door to a new world for her and she saw a "scenery" completely different from the past, a "scenery" that was rotten, hideous, horrible and disgusting. When Franca finished speaking, she blurted out: "Did that pervert set his sights on me in the old pigeon coop?" Since Hedsey was an outer member of the Society of the Bliss and a subordinate of the theater manager, Maipu Meier, he would certainly go in and out of the old pigeon coop frequently and secretly. Janna suspected that the pervert might often hide in dark corners, watching her and other female performance apprentices attending classes. "It's possible." Franca also felt that this could better explain why the perverted Hedesi did not choose another female underground singer and had to take the risk of drugging Janet. Although Janna is really good-looking, and after learning performance skills and makeup techniques at Lao Gelong for a period of time, she has been able to slowly master the identity of an underground singer, allowing her charm to be increasingly revealed, but she is not a "witch" after all, and does not have that much charm. There are many female underground singers who are more open and can better arouse the desires of lower-class men in the market area. Moreover, they do not have the identity of "Red Boots" mistresses. Jenna then looked at Lumian and gritted her teeth. "You suspected that I was a believer of the 'Mother Tree of Desire', so you used the gold Louis to test me? "Isn't that too stingy? Ten gold Louis at least!" Lumian laughed: "It suddenly occurred to me that since I met you, you have never praised any righteous god. To this day, I still don't know whether you believe in the 'Eternal Blazing Sun' or the 'God of Steam and Machinery'. It's very suspicious." Jane laughed and said: "Most of the time, when I meet you, I'm dressed like this, wearing smoky makeup that represents decadence, singing 'Honey, he really knows how to use his fingers'. If I praise the sun in this state, I suspect God will burn me to death." As she spoke, she pointed to her chest, which revealed a large area of snow-white skin and seductive cleavage. Without waiting for Lumian's response, she pointed at Franca again: "Franca never praises any gods, why don't you doubt her?" "Who said that?" Franka solemnly drew the triangular holy emblem on her chest, "Steam is above!"
Your acting is average... Aurore is the same, she rarely mentions her faith, rarely attends mass, and only praises the sun when she is questioned... Lumian followed suit and drew the triangular holy emblem: "Steam on top!" Infected by their behavior, Charlie subconsciously opened his arms: "Praise the sun!" This brought about an awkward silence, and it seemed that no one knew how to continue the topic. After several seconds, Lumian said to Janna: "So your real identity is an acting apprentice." Janna was a little proud at once, and raised her chin slightly and said: “So, am I qualified to judge your acting skills? "Also, I'm really not a low-class, foul-mouthed female hooligan. I'm just acting like a female underground singer. What do you think? Is my acting very real? Can you see no problem at all?" "No wonder I sometimes feel that you are somewhat cultured." Lumian agreed with Jenna's statement in a sarcastic manner. "What do you mean a little?" Janna expressed her dissatisfaction. Charlie's eyes moved between the two people's faces, and then he couldn't help but look at Franca who was sitting in the armchair. Franca pursed her lips and watched Lumian and Janna communicating in an arguing manner. Lumian ignored Jenna's boasting and said: "Let's talk about the old pigeon coop." Jana thought about it for a few seconds, then suddenly froze and blurted out: "Fuck! My tuition!" As soon as she finished speaking, she noticed that everyone was looking at her, all with a strange look in their eyes. Janna quickly explained: "Didn't you say that Maipu Meier might run away with the members of the Bliss Society? Will the old pigeon cage go bankrupt? Damn, these shitty cultists, I have already paid a whole year's tuition! Damn it, I have to go and get it back!" When Janna calmed down a bit, Lumian twitched his mouth and said: "Didn't you say that swearing and low quality are just an act?" "..." Jane was speechless at first, then she tried to explain, "I am now the underground singer Jane! I am still in this role and have not yet extricated myself..." Seeing Lumian's disbelief, Janna became angry and said: "Fuck, do you understand? This is called getting into the role!" "Yes, yes, yes." Franca echoed Jana, trying to change the subject. "The Old Pigeon Cage has a large number of regular audiences and many good actors. Even if the theater manager and two or three leading actors run away, it will not go bankrupt. At most, it will be difficult for a while because of the loss of cash. I think there are many people willing to take over such high-quality assets. Oh, by the way, who is the owner of the Old Pigeon Cage?" Jana recalled: "It is Maip Meir himself." "I see..." Lumian looked at Franca, "If Maip Maier really wants to escape, we can take over the old pigeon cage at a very low price. Aren't there many dancers and singers controlled by Brinell who don't want to sell their bodies? Let them go to the theater to earn money." "That's going to require fierce competition." Franca responded thoughtfully. "If it really works, it's indeed a way. The problem is how to convince Brinell...Haha, tell him a story, paint a rosy picture for him, tell him that a singer who works part-time as a street girl can only make so much money no matter how hard she tries, while a famous theater actor controlled by our Savoy Party can give back much more." Charlie's eyes moved between Lumian and Franca's faces, and then he couldn't help but look at Janna who was sitting on the single sofa. After talking with Lumian for a while, Franka said to Janna: "Don't worry, your tuition will not be in vain."
Jenna, who had listened carefully to their discussion, breathed a sigh of relief and muttered: "The tuition at the Old Pigeon Cage is not cheap at all." Franka brought the topic back on track: "What's your impression of the people in the old pigeon cage? Who do you think is worthy of suspicion?" Jenna thought and said: "Mip. Maier likes to come and watch our acting classes. His eyes are a bit lustful, but he has never harassed anyone. Aren't many men like this? Well, some apprentices may develop relationships with him privately. After all, he is the owner and manager of the theater... "Lentas's acting skills are really great. He is the most professional and outstanding among all the acting teachers. Each of the characters he plays in the drama seems to have its own life and is completely different from each other..." At this point, Janna was obviously a little envious, and seemed to want to acquire the ability of an "actor", but when she thought of Hedesy's abnormal appearance and Susanna Mathis's current situation, she became afraid again and dared not fantasize. "I haven't seen the Efe you mentioned very often. He might just come when we're rehearsing some plays... "I'm not very familiar with Charlotte. When I entered the old pigeon cage, she had already started to play the leading role, but she is my role model. Her acting skills are worse than Rentas's. I'm not sure if she is an 'actress'. Damn, it's hard to judge..." Janna tried to control herself for a long time, but finally blurted out a curse word. "Other acting teachers are probably not 'actors'. Their acting skills are quite different from Rentas'. They often praise me, saying that I have acting talent. Although I am not as good as Rentas or the other female protagonists in the old pigeon cage, I can still compare with Charlotte when she was an acting apprentice..." Jana stopped talking suddenly. "What's wrong?" Franca asked with concern. Charlie's eyes moved between Franca and Janna's faces, and then he couldn't help but look at Charles who was sitting next to him. Janna frowned and said: "Tomorrow the official Beyonders will conduct an in-depth investigation of the old pigeon cage. What should I do?" She is a wild Beyonder, an "Assassin". "Give up the old pigeon coop and go to another theater?" Lumian tried to suggest. The issue of money is actually the least important issue. Janna pursed her lips slightly, her expression a little depressed: "But, but I used my real identity in the old pigeon cage. What about my mother and my brother..." (End of this chapter)
