[Phantom of the Opera] Lover

Chapter 11

Until a letter broke her calm lady life —— that day, just entered September, she is in front of the mirror, try on a new hat, appreciate their charm, suddenly received a letter from New Orleans.

She wondered if —— who would send her a letter? Her cold, golden eyes flashed through her head. She failed to catch it. She had long forgotten who had the golden eyes.

Oh, she remembered! She saved a magician in New Orleans, put him in trouble and wrote to her —— What is his name? I can't remember.

Not knowing how he sent it to Paris, she opened the envelope with great pleasure.

Then I saw a line of horror:

Mr.Edler was missing in the Caribbean a week ago.

Eric returned to New Orleans.

When he left, he was in a mess, cold sweat, and lived in the luggage compartment of the train for nearly half a month.

When he returned, he rode a black horse, a finely cut black coat, hanging down to his knees, a white shirt and a dark gray corrugated silk vest, a gold chain, a narrow leather boots, and shiny silver spurs.

He pulled at the REINS, walking slowly down the street, looking calm and steady, not knowing what he was thinking.

In general, with the exception of the particularly rich men, who did not need to prove their identity in a carriage, people held a prejudice against the riders that they were rural subordinates, and rarely avoided them on the road.

However, no one dares to avoid Eric's fierce horse.

Not only because he was all dressed, cold and looking like a gentleman of rank, but because of the power of a cold, fierce ride, as if the dangerous blood of a predatory beast.

One could not help wondering that if they did not dodge, he would pull the REINS, kick the horse with his spurs, and leap over them without hesitation.

New Orleeans have only seen such people in the west, —— can not be called "people", but heinous "outlaws".

Besides, he is indeed like an "outlaw", despite wearing a suit and tie, with a mask on his face, a belt and a rope —— what kind of person will carry a rope? This is not the grassland, he needs to use the rope to set the horns, then there is only one possibility, the rope is used to tie people.

Yes, only the extremely vicious fugitive, will have such a terrible temperament, will use a mask to cover up their own face.

For a while, people fled into the house, a little far away, they fled into the hotel and card room. After a while, the police on patrol came over to question him.

Eric was already used to the scene.

In the past six months, he went wherever he went.

No one again will treat him as she does.

He touched the two hundred dollars she gave. That's his souvenir.

What to commemorate?

It's not clear.

In May, he traveled to Paris, where he found a job —— redesigning and repairing the foundations of the GanyPalace. The foundation of the stream has been troubling designer Charles Giet since it was built.

Redesigning the foundation engineering, in the eyes of others, is almost impossible task, but in his view, it is a small matter.

Before joining the circus, he was the architect of the Persian king, not only transforming the Mazandran palace, but also building a secret torture room.

It is not the torture room in the traditional sense, but a hexagonal room inlaid with a mirror, as long as you press the mechanism, the plane mirror, concave mirror, convex mirror in the room will rotate with the bearing, like a lantern changes out of all kinds of shocking scenes.

What pleased the king most was the electric heating device behind the mirror. When the mechanism is opened, all the mirror rotation, dazzling at the same time, will also form a terrible heat wave, as if in the sea of fire. The prisoner was shut up inside, watching his body magnified, shrinking, rolling waves, endless reflections, and hot heat baking skin, and even a faithful Puritan would scold God.

Because of this torture room, he once became the most powerful man in the kingdom of Persia.

But that was all like something in the past.

In July, the foundation of the palace was repaired. —— was a miracle, and he became a famous architect in Paris.

He gradually gained fame, regained his position and wealth, and wore a well-cut suit.

Finally, I was able to go back to find her.

However, in New Orleans, she learned that she had already married to Paris and became the wife of the others.

Note ⑴: Please note the time limitations of this plot. At the time, hunting was an upscale activity. Influenced by the influence of the nobles in the 17th and 18th centuries (almost all courts had hunting agencies), the older the nobles paid more attention to hunting. Even though some countries restricted the time and place of hunting, many wild animals became extinct.
