Chapter 510: special preparation

Chapter 510 Special preparations

After Catherine's "entry point" with information about the audience was established, William went straight back to the magic area and happened to bump into Jain in the passage.

"William, why did you come back from outside? You seem to have other ideas about the temporarily arranged formal performance?"

“One day is too short and there is no time for regular preparations.

Even if I have already thought of a scene design that can be used for formal performances, the temporary installation will definitely not achieve the expected effect, so it is better to think of another way.

 Senior Jain, can you give me the arrangements for tomorrow’s performance? "

Jane pinched a piece of white paper from between his sleeves with a flick of his fingers.

 《Circus of Fear Official Performance Schedule》

 It is mainly divided into four large-scale programs with four chiefs.

 Between the four major programs are interspersed small programs such as Catherine the Clown, Mosander the Long-Leggs, etc., making the entire performance process ups and downs.

William asked tentatively: "Should my performance be performed during any intermission period, right?"

“That’s right, think about it carefully and tell me the result before tomorrow morning.”

 “I’ve already chosen!”

William didn't think much about it, or he had already made a decision. His finger quickly fell on the gap between two programs, which made Jain frown.

 At least in Jain's opinion, such a choice is unwise.

"Are you sure? You want to put your halftime performance after the acrobatic troupe's performance?"

Mr. Rabbit's level is above mine, and the acrobatic troupe he commands is not comparable to that of Mosander, a newcomer.

 In all previous performances, the acrobatic troupe has the highest average amount of fear collection.

In other words, after watching the performance of the Acrobatic Troupe, most of the audience are in a state of absolute immersion, exhaustion or even brain death.

It will be difficult for your temporary performance to be effective during this time period.

 My suggestion is to place it after Catherine’s nightmare performance. The impact of dreams will quickly diminish after waking up, and it is easiest to perform at this time. "

“My performance must be placed here, otherwise the success rate will be greatly reduced.”

Looking at the firm look in William's eyes, Jain nodded, "Then just report it like this. Do you need to borrow some people from me?"

“No, I can do it alone. The time is too short to train. Moreover, even if other assistants are forced to follow me as a newcomer, they will be very resistant in their hearts, and it will be difficult to achieve the effect I want.

 Mr. Jain, I'm going to do other things first. "

William waved goodbye in a hurry. He did not return to his magic house, but planned to go to other areas.

Such unusual behavior naturally aroused Jain's curiosity. The magic show had been rehearsed long ago, so he quietly followed William.

After bypassing the underground intersection of the circus, William actually walked to the banquet hall again, touched the secret door switch between the passages, and opened the secret passage leading to the kitchen.

"Um? Chef...What exactly does William want to do? 』

Jahn suppressed his curiosity and did not follow up. After all, the answer would be revealed in two days.

  【Back Kitchen】

 Since the Sabbat has just ended, the entire kitchen is undergoing general cleaning.

For William, a newcomer who won second place in the Sabbat and was favored by his boss, the poker faces who were doing hygiene were also quite polite and didn't ask any questions.

William came here and did nothing. He just sat on the cutting table and thought and waited quietly.

 About half an hour passed,

While he was trying to figure out the type, quantity, and ingredients of the dishes to be made in his head, there was a sound of footsteps coming from the incinerator.

Chef Timmy came back with his tongue wrapped around his body. He had just finished injecting the boss' medicine down below and was extremely surprised to see William sitting in the back kitchen.

"William, what are you doing here? Why don't you hurry up and prepare for the performance the day after tomorrow?"

“I came here just for the show, can Chef Timmy give me these ingredients now?”

William was writing as he spoke, and handed over a detailed list.

Looking at the large number of raw materials on the list, Timmy also frowned, "What do you want so many things for? This is not a free warehouse, you can take it as you want...the raw materials cultivated in the kitchen are all top quality. "

"Of course it will be used for tomorrow's performance. Can you record the cost first and pay it back slowly after I recover enough fear liquid from the performance? I can accept it even with interest."

If it had been anyone else, the chef would have refused without hesitation, and the back chef would have never offered credit.

But considering William’s amazing performance at the Sabbat, and considering that the boss showed a rare smile during the banquet, Timmy also made a rare compromise.

“Since you are going to use the dishes in the kitchen for performances, I will lend it to you reluctantly~ There is no need for interest, as long as you can pay it back in full within one year.

However, the use of "boss meat" is prohibited. "

Seeing Chef Timmy nodding in agreement, William followed up with another request:

“Chef, can you lend me some more people to help with the processing of raw materials and assisting with cooking? I may not be able to make it on my own. The personnel expenses will also be recorded in the account and will be paid back later.”

 “You...okay, how many people do you want?”

 “All the poker faces needed to clean the house are needed at the moment,

 In addition, I may also modify some equipment in the kitchen, such as splicing some meat woks to form a larger caliber pot to improve the efficiency of cooking. "

 “What else do you want?”

 Chef Timmy is already a little impatient. If William dares to ask again, he will directly stop providing help.

"that is all."

"That's all! No one has ever dared to make so many demands in the kitchen... It really makes me so angry! Okay, I can promise you, but in addition to repaying the money, I need you to do one thing."

"What's up?"

“Ahem~ As long as you are in the circus, make red oil dumplings at least once a week.”

“That’s no problem, as long as you provide me with good scalp meat.” "

Seeing that William agreed, Chef Timmy stopped making things difficult.

"Remind you! Before the official performance begins, the kitchen must maintain absolute stability. You must keep the [rules] in mind during cooking. If black hair and meat combine to affect the official performance, this responsibility is not yours to bear. I All may be tried for this.”

 “I will ensure the stability and safety of the kitchen.”

 “That’s it, I’m exhausted from the Sabbat thing, so I can just take a rest.”

With the chef’s nod of affirmation, the next two days are equivalent to handing over all the authority of the kitchen to William, a young man.

Timmy seemed to leave leisurely, but as soon as he returned to his lounge, he turned on the biometric monitoring device and watched everything going on in the kitchen intently.

He was curious about what William was going to do and how to connect the kitchen with the performance.

 In the surveillance screen,

William used his identity as interim supervisor to summon all the poker faces to his side.

 There is no communication at any verbal level,

Rather, the skull is opened in public to reveal the dark brain. Through the transmission of brainwave information, everyone is assigned responsibilities and a time plan is listed to ensure that no time is wasted.

 The display is over,

 Poker faces put on chef aprons one after another and went to work in different areas. The kitchen became lively again.

 However, as everyone began to get busy, William did not participate.

He climbed onto the kitchen counter, used the cutting board as a pillow and fell asleep peacefully in the noisy kitchen environment.

Chef Timmy stood up excitedly when he saw this scene, pointed at the monitor and shouted, "How can you sleep! Can you sleep at this time?"

 But Timmy finally calmed down and did not go to the kitchen to intervene.

What he didn’t know was that William’s sleep was actually projecting his consciousness into the memory palace and communicating with his other self in the aquarium.

“Yi Chen, I need your help for the next performance.”
