Chapter 125: Bail Klein

"Will Miss Hall's people take action?"

Hugh Dilcha was originally still worried about how to help Williams get revenge, but when she heard Audrey's promise, her first reaction was not relief, but surprise.

She really couldn't imagine that this noble lady who seemed to have just entered the world of Beyonders not long ago now had the power to deal with Sequence 7 Beyonders?

"Ok."

Xio nodded. She didn't ask any more questions, but just nodded in agreement.

"Miss Xiu, don't worry too much. Those bad guys will definitely be punished."

Audrey waved her fist and tried to use her mind-reading ability to comfort Xio.

……

Early the next morning.

Klein accepted a new detective commission and left his home at 15 Minsk Street early, while Roger packed up and went to the DeWalker Music Company in Hillston District for rehearsal again.

In fact, today was not the regular rehearsal date for Roger's play. The reason why Mr. Jeffrey asked him to go was because the official performance would be held next Tuesday.

Mr. Jeffrey hopes to conduct two complete rehearsals of the play before the official performance in order to simulate and discover possible problems in the official performance.

Soon, the rental carriage arrived at the Dwork Music Company. At this time, there were many colleagues who Roger had become familiar with during this period in the lobby, including Alice Yeman who had just become an apprentice.

"Morning, Alice."

Roger took the initiative to go over and say hello, and the latter smiled when he saw Roger.

"I have good news for you."

Alice pulled Roger aside and said in a somewhat excited voice:

"I haven't sleepwalked in the past few days!"

"That's great. Congratulations."

Roger was also somewhat relieved. After all, it was always a good thing that Alice could get better.

"Thanks to you, thank you so much."

Alice thanked him sincerely. She was very grateful to Roger as she had fully confirmed the effectiveness of the "Apprentice" potion.

"For the next period of time, you must meditate regularly. Also, do not overuse the power of the 'Apprentice.' The resulting spiritual exhaustion will increase the risk of you losing control."

Roger started to give instructions, at this moment he was playing the role of "mentor".

"is teacher."

Alice nodded and whispered back.

At this time, Mr. Jeffrey finally came out of the office. He distributed performance arrangements and timeline lists to the corresponding actors and crews according to the different plays. After the actors had a brief familiarization, he asked them to go on stage for rehearsal.

"How's it going? In a few days, I'll be facing the royal family, the Duke, and those earls. Are you nervous?"

Roger glanced at Alice, who was obviously a little uneasy, and asked with a smile.

"It's impossible not to be nervous."

Alice looked up at Roger, then whispered:

"I've never met aristocrats, let alone performed for them...

"In fact, I admire your composure. Look at these actors around you, they're all hoping to be recognized by the king and become famous through this performance..."

Roger laughed when he heard this:

"I'm quite familiar with nobles and such, so this kind of scene is okay for me."

When Alice heard this, she suddenly realized what was happening because she remembered Roger's true identity.

According to the other party, his family is also of noble origin, so such a scene may not be a big deal to Roger.

However, in reality, Roger hadn't come into contact with any nobles through Abraham's family. Instead, through Klein the Fool, he had to sit at the same table with the beloved daughter of a top noble every week...

"The next group, the girls from Winter City."

While the two were chatting, Jack Jeffrey's assistant shouted from a distance.

This is the show Alice Inman and her crew are responsible for.

Roger had watched this play, which had obvious religious elements, several times during rehearsals.

The general content is about a poor girl who sells goat milk in the Winter City. During the famine, she took the initiative to work for the Goddess Church, saved many poor civilians, and was eventually chosen by the Goddess and became a bishop step by step.

Winter City is one of the main cities in Wintershire, where the headquarters of the Church of the Goddess of Night is located - the Tranquility Church, which is also called the "Holy Temple" by the Night Watchers.

Roger was not sure whether the story told in this stage play was true or whether it actually pointed to a real bishop of the Church of the Goddess of Night, but this did not prevent it from being widely circulated among the believers of the Goddess of Night.

Alice plays the young woman who becomes the bishop of the Church of Evernight. Actually, her qualifications aren't enough for such a central role, but according to Jeffrey, "Alice's elf-like temperament fits the stereotype of the Winter City girl very well."

This arrangement naturally caused dissatisfaction among Alice's competitors...but in fact, even Alice herself had some complaints about this view.

She believed she should rely on her own strength rather than her appearance to become the lead in the play, and she wanted to prove that her singing ability was worthy of her position, which was one of the reasons why she was so concerned about the upcoming official performance. Soon, the rehearsal was for Roger's "The Ruined Princess", and he naturally completed the performance with ease.

Soon, all the rehearsals were over. Mr. Jeffrey frowned and told each crew the issues they needed to pay attention to, then turned to Roger.

"Benelu."

When Jeffrey saw him, his previous sad expression immediately changed and he showed an appreciative smile.

"You don't have to come to the next rehearsal."

"What do you mean by no need to come anymore?"

Roger didn't react for a moment, and even many of his colleagues around him pricked up their ears and looked over curiously.

However, Jeffrey, realizing that he had said the wrong thing, waved his hand:

"What I mean is that your performance was impeccable and there's nothing wrong with it, so you should take a good rest during this period and then go directly to the Royal Theatre at 6am next Tuesday to put on your makeup.

"Go down to the front desk and get some throat lozenges for your throat. Try to avoid going out for the next few days to prevent a cold.

"And Jennifer, Albert, and William, you don't have to come either."

The three people Jeffrey mentioned are the current top stars of Dwork Music Company, and are also the top soprano and two baritones in the entire Loen art world.

For these three people, impeccable performance is normal. However, it is a bit contrary to the truth that Roger, an amateur newcomer, can receive the same treatment.

As expected, Jeffrey's arrangement immediately attracted jealous looks from many people around him, and whispers filled the entire venue.

However, Mr. Jeffrey noticed their behavior and shouted:
"Everyone else stay. Each team leader will correct the errors every second according to the timeline this afternoon!"

For a time, there was widespread grief in De Work Music Company - but the actors had nothing to say about it.

They have all seen Roger's performance during this period, and at least these actors ask themselves if they can reach Roger's level.

In terms of his grasp of his character's emotions and singing skills, he is comparable to three top actresses including Jennifer.

In fact, for him who has almost digested the "Singer" potion, he can play any role in all the plays in this performance. After this period of time, Roger even memorized most of their lines.

In other words, if Roger had the same "parasitic" ability as Amon, he could support an entire music company by himself...

But no matter what, it's a good thing that I can rest for a few more days.

Roger nodded, smiled, waved goodbye to his colleagues, and left the scene with everyone watching.

This also included Alice. The new "apprentice" sighed with a complicated expression, turned around and continued to familiarize herself with the part that needed improvement.

After leaving Dework Music Company, Roger took a carriage back to No. 15 Minsk Street.

Just as he took out his key to open the door, he saw lawyer Jurgen Cooper walking around the corner with a heavy heart.

"Benelu?"

Seeing his employer Sherlock Moriarty's roommate return home, Lawyer Jurgen was slightly taken aback, then said:

"Did you know that Detective Moriarty is in police custody?"

"what?"

Roger was stunned for a moment when he heard this: "I don't know, why?"

"Illegal possession of a firearm. I'm going to get him now. Do you want to come with me?"

Jurgen looked at him and asked.

Roger couldn't help but burst out laughing when he heard this.

Only then did he realize that after the disappearance of Black Cat Brody, Jurgen had become Klein's exclusive co-lawyer.

Although Jurgen's price was not expensive, fortunately he was a senior partner in a law firm, had excellent business skills and was very familiar with the Sivellas field.

He nodded: "Okay, I'll pay for the fare."

Lawyer Jurgen seemed to be waiting for this sentence. He nodded with satisfaction and got into a taxi with Roger.

After a while, the two arrived at the detention center of the Cherwood District Police Station. After a tedious bail process, the listless Klein was finally brought out.

He was not wearing a coat, and the gun bag he usually wore under his arm was taken away, so it was obvious that he had been searched.

"I've already paid your bail and attorney fees."

Roger glanced at Klein with amusement, and the latter immediately showed a look of gratitude.

"Thank you. I'll pay you back later... and the money for the lost gun."

Klein put on his coat and whispered a thank you.

"Don't be so formal. Just cook for the next month."

Roger patted Klein's shoulder and asked again:
"What happened just now? Why were we suddenly arrested by the police?"
