Chapter 552: Stomachache
The venue was completely silent.
Everything happened too suddenly!
Just a moment before, they were on the verge of a happy ending.
Yet, the male protagonist was shot dead by an arrow?!
For a moment, the audience was stunned.
Many people simply couldn’t accept it.
This feeling was like accumulating joy to its limit, only for it to suddenly shatter, plummeting them from heaven to hell!
Their smiles hadn’t even faded, but their tear ducts had already broken.
The people of Luo Ji’s civilization experienced a feeling called ‘stomachache’ for the first time.
The audience was at a loss, unsure what to do.
Finally, Luo Ji led the applause.
“Is the person who wrote this script a demon? To write such a tragic ending…”
Luo Ji, selectively forgetting that he was the culprit, couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.
After all, the original ending of Beauty and the Beast was a classic Disney ‘Happy Ending!’
But no matter what, the facts were set.
To expand the influence of this opera, the Myriad World Civilization’s version of Beauty and the Beast was destined to be a tragedy.
The audience, regaining their senses, also applauded in response after seeing Luo Ji clapping.
The applause in the hall surged like a tide, making the actors backstage, who heard it, cheer and embrace each other.
Li Feng, the Werewolf male protagonist, surrounded by cheers and embraces, stiffened for a moment.
Then, he quickly relaxed.
Undoubtedly, at this moment, they cast aside racial prejudices, and Li Feng also let go of his last trace of wariness.
He embraced his companions in the opera troupe.
After a performance, the actors had 30 minutes of rest.
The audience in the hall slowly exited at the staff’s prompt.
Those who had been waiting outside, upon seeing the audience emerge, couldn’t wait and immediately rushed forward, wanting to ask what happened.
But when they got closer, they noticed everyone’s eyes were so red.
“Uh, miss, what’s wrong with you?”
It was fine when no one asked.
But upon being asked, the girl with red-rimmed eyes suddenly burst into tears.
“Why, why is it like this? They were clearly so good…”
The person who had rushed over was clearly dumbfounded by this scene.
Then, watching the girl cry and walk away, he quickly shouted a reminder.
“Miss! That’s the ticket booth, the exit is this way, you’re going the wrong way!”
Unexpectedly, the girl shouted back without turning her head.
“I want to watch it again! Woo woo woo…”
At this moment, the people waiting outside generally encountered such situations.
The audience who had just finished watching the opera was now heartbroken; who had the mood to tell the plot to these people outside?
This accidental turn of events truly whetted the appetites of the waiting audience.
Then, at the staff’s reminder, the audience holding tickets for the second show quickly handed them over and entered.
The reaction of the previous audience made them feel inexplicably uneasy.
After entering, it wasn’t long before the curtain rose and the opera began again.
The audience was quickly drawn into the joyful plot.
While laughing and reveling in the sweet love of the male and female protagonists, they couldn’t help but wonder what was wrong with the first group of audience members.
It was such a joyful plot, why were those audience members crying?
They truly didn’t understand people nowadays.
Thinking of this, the man who had been utterly confused by the earlier girl couldn’t help but chuckle and shake his head.
Then, he seriously watched the rest of the performance.
Until the heartbreaking ending.
After the show, the man walked out of the Grand Opera House, dejected.
Seeing someone rush up to him, wanting to ask about the plot, the man, with red eyes, sniffled.
“Don’t ask me, I don’t know anything!”
With that, the man walked directly to the side.
“Hey, buddy! That’s the ticket booth, the exit is this way!”
“I know! Can’t I watch it again?! Woo woo woo…”
“…”
On its opening day, the opera Beauty and the Beast dropped an unprecedented bombshell on the people of Mirror City.
Afterward, it swept across the entire Myriad World Civilization like a storm.
That night, in a restaurant, Shen Jun was sniffing while pouring wine into his mouth.
“Lu Yang, I’m telling you, this opera His Majesty put on this time, Beauty and the Beast, you absolutely must go see it!”
Looking at his friend, who was already five or six parts drunk.
Lu Yang, sitting opposite him, having been “recommended” it all evening, shook his head speechlessly.
But at the same time, he was greatly surprised.
Because it wasn’t just his table; several tables next to them, and even the entire first floor of the restaurant, were experiencing this situation.
Especially one table of girls, who were crying uncontrollably, gasping for breath.
Yet, no one around seemed to find it strange.
Some even went over and cried with them.
This truly made him a little curious.
It seemed their Emperor had indeed created a formidable secret weapon this time.
Coincidentally, it was his turn for a day off tomorrow.
And this highly anticipated opera certainly wouldn’t be performed for just 1 day.
Mirror City had scheduled it for 3 days.
With eight performances a day, it was almost non-stop from morning till night.
“After the 3 days, it would move to the next city on the following rest day, half a month later, and it would be performed for another 3 consecutive days.”
Their Emperor highly valued this opera performance.
Therefore, the schedule and timing were personally set by him, the assistant.
Knowing this, Lu Yang was naturally very clear about the schedule.
The next day, taking advantage of his day off, Lu Yang emerged from the opera house with a complicated expression after watching the performance.
He could only say that their Emperor’s tactics were too profound.
The people of this era had never experienced such tactics.
They were instantly tormented by the plot of Beauty and the Beast.
The feelings of the audience after watching this performance could probably be described in four words: extreme joy turning into sorrow!
At this moment, Lu Yang’s feelings were incredibly profound.
Then he thought about the few audience members sitting next to him.
Those audience members had watched it at least twice.
From the very beginning of the opera, they started crying and laughing at the same time.
When the plot reached its most joyful part, they cried even more miserably.
Their expressions were incredibly rich and complex.
At first, it left Lu Yang feeling inexplicable.
It wasn’t until the moment of the grand finale that he understood just how profound their Emperor’s tactics were.
He instinctively reached out and touched his stomach.
No, his stomach hurt.
This Beauty and the Beast made his stomach ache so much!
