Chapter 15 The Mute Bride
This was Lin Xiaohe's first time visiting the Phantom Theatre.

It is completely different from other buildings on Wasteland.

Its appearance resembles a multifaceted crystal encased in a nebula, with its surface covered by an adaptive optics film and a protective shield invisible to the naked eye.

The facade is made up of millions of nano-mirrors seamlessly assembled, reflecting deep space scenes in real time.

The theater's silhouette changes with the viewing angle; from afar it resembles a collapsed star, while up close it reveals Gothic pointed arches and a gear-like structure.

Thunderbolt wore a long, curly blonde hairstyle, a bright red, high-slit, tight-fitting dress, sky-high heels, and a bright red lip mask on his face.

"Joker, weapons are not allowed in the theater, you understand?"

Lin Xiaohe, dressed as a clown and carrying a large white shoulder bag, said, "Don't worry, Mommy."

Old Black's attire was much more normal, with a black cloak covering him from head to toe.

The three people entered after having their tickets checked.

Suddenly, a man standing behind them was blasted into ashes by several laser beams.

Thunderbolt Brother pressed Lin Xiaohe's head down and whispered, "Don't look. Another one who doesn't believe in evil. He's definitely carrying a weapon."

The Phantom Theater is a cure for all those who don't believe in evil.

Lin Xiaohe felt a chill in her heart; the Grand Theater was more dangerous than she had imagined.

After having their tickets checked, the three entered the passage.

This passage is also called the Time-Space Corridor. The glass walkway under your feet is filled with starlight data from the Sixth Star Ring over billions of years, and the holographic screens on both sides continuously project the classic play "The Mute Bride" from the theater.

Passing through the corridor, a huge stage suspended in the air comes into view.

The large chandelier hanging above the stage is forged from the material of a collapsed star and inlaid with tens of thousands of pulsar crystals.

It stopped falling and instead broke into countless fragments that surrounded the audience.

Three crystals fell from the sky like shooting stars and landed on the shoulders of the three people.

[Dear guest, I am your personal butler. Please allow me to guide you to your assigned seat.]

Lin Xiaohe raised an eyebrow: "Mommy, is it here to spy on us?"

Thunderbolt Brother reached out and flicked the crystal, but it wouldn't budge.

His eyes darkened: "Yes."

The two exchanged a glance and, following the butler's instructions, went to the private room and took their seats.

The private rooms offer a variety of services, including natural fruit, but the prices are extremely high.

Lin Xiaohe felt dizzy when she saw the long string of zeros after the price.

She stood up: "I'm going out for a walk."

“I’ll go with you.” Thunderbolt followed closely behind.

Outside the theater, there is a rest corridor divided into individual cubicles, the purpose of which is unknown.

Lin Xiaohe silently murmured in her heart, "Xinbao."

Xinbao activated the "Cling" skill to connect to the Grand Theater's internal network. After obtaining the key, she activated "One Poke Breaks" to easily access the surveillance footage from each cubicle.

The Grand Theater's firewall is very powerful, but it only protects against external threats, not internal ones.

As long as Xinbao doesn't touch the core of the Grand Theater, checking the surveillance footage will be a piece of cake.

Lin Xiaohe walked slowly, seemingly nonchalant, but in reality, she was paying attention to what was happening in the cubicle.

"The classic play 'The Mute Bride' will be restaged next week? I wonder which lucky girl will get to play the lead role?" "I heard that she was personally chosen by a VIP, a commoner girl, a purebred natural person, without any modifications, and she is mute."

"I guessed which VIP it was. If it was that person, I don't know if playing the mute bride would be lucky or unlucky."

"The last actress he handpicked, after being drained of her value, was left permanently on the estate."

They spoke of the girls' tragic fates as casually as if they were discussing a fine piece of porcelain, an unpalatable cigar, or an exquisite watch...

Lin Xiaohe's face was grim, and her steps grew heavier.

Just as she was about to reach the end, she heard Cheng Ge's voice.

"Boss, don't worry. Lin Jingqiu has no background. Her mother is dying, her father is disabled, her grandparents are dying of old age, and her older brother offended someone and has probably become fertilizer for mutated plants."

The other voice was a synthesized mechanical voice: "Doesn't she also have a younger sister who is taking the college entrance exam and applying to the Federal Central Military Academy?"

Cheng Ge, brimming with confidence, patted his chest and said, "I've already found out everything. Her younger sister, Lin Xiaohe, didn't do well in school. According to Teacher Li, Lin Xiaohe's application to the Central Military Academy was a complete mistake."

"Are you sure? The Central Military Academy is full of lunatics and fiercely protective of their own. That lord wouldn't go against the Central Military Academy just because of a woman."

Brother Cheng lit a cigar solicitously and offered it to the boss's lips: "You can rest assured about my work. I deliberately waited until the college entrance exam results were released and all the candidates had received their acceptance letters before I took action. It's been so many days, and Lin Xiaohe still hasn't received her acceptance letter. She must have failed!"

The person opposite nodded; he thought so too.

That's the Central Military Academy!
For a full 500 years, no one in the Sixth Star Ring has been admitted to the Central Military Academy!

Lin Xiaohe looks like a sickly person, how could she possibly pass the exam?
"Keep an eye on Lin Jingqiu. The mute bride's wedding night will naturally be reserved for that man."

They stopped talking there and prepared to open the door.

Lin Xiaohe quickly turned around and deliberately lowered her voice: "Mommy, let's go back."

Confused, Brother Pili obediently followed under Lin Xiaohe's oppressive gaze.

The two returned to their private room, watched the opera, and then left the grand theater with the crowd.

Lin Xiaohe's mind was filled with speculation: where would the second sister, who was the lead actress, be hiding?
Xinbao had checked everywhere she could, but there was no sign of her second sister.

What remains is the heavily guarded backstage area.

"Damn it, what a waste of money! We didn't find any information!" Thunderbolt Brother said angrily.

The Grand Theatre truly lives up to its name; its defenses are impenetrable, giving guests absolutely no chance to move around on their own.

How can we rescue people if we can't even find them?
Lin Xiaohe looked out the window and said calmly, "My sister is the lead actress in next week's play, 'The Mute Bride'."

"Hmm?" Old Black gave Thunderbolt a questioning look.

Brother Thunderbolt looked serious and shook his head.

Old Hei raised an eyebrow. Interesting. Thunderbolt Brother and Lin Xiaohe were clearly acting together, yet Xiaohe knew so much information while Thunderbolt Brother didn't.

Thunderbolt asked in confusion, "Can your sister sing and dance? Or is she as beautiful as an angel?"

The lead actress in the Grand Theater was actually an ordinary girl.

Wouldn't that make those arrogant guests want to blew up the temple?
Lin Xiaohe shook her head: "My sister doesn't know how to talk. She was pre-selected by some big shot."

Tsk tsk.

Thunderbolt and Blackie exchanged a glance, both realizing they were in deep trouble.

"Xiao He, this is no easy task. To get a commoner girl to play the lead role at the Grand Theatre, especially in a classic play like 'The Mute Bride,' this important person must have connections everywhere."

Thunderbolt Brother decisively said, "We, Iron Meteor, are withdrawing from this operation."

They don't want to both challenge the Grand Theatre and VIPs; it's easy to get themselves into trouble!
