Wilderness Redemption Tour

Chapter 194 New Clothes

Before the show started, because it was a side profile and the lighting was dim, Lin Yan only saw half of Mary's face and subconsciously imagined her to be the appearance of the heroine of a movie he had seen before. Now that he saw her in person, to be honest, he was a little disappointed.

Strictly speaking, Mary is not very beautiful, but she is the type with a good-looking temperament. Although she is not dressed up and wears a simple dark dress, her every move gives people a very elegant feeling.

In the end, Mary chose the aisle near the edge of the theater, naturally took Arthur's hand and walked out of the theater side by side with him.

Lin Yan and Sadie just watched quietly, and no one jumped out to say hello to Arthur. On the contrary, when Arthur glanced in their direction, the two of them either turned their heads away or lowered their heads, and deliberately avoided his gaze, for fear of being discovered by him.

Only after most people in the theater had left did Lin Yan and Sadie get up and leave.

When he came to the ticket window again, the ticket seller had already calculated and distributed Marjorie's share of the performance. As soon as Lin Yan appeared, the ticket seller handed him a stack of change without waiting for him to say anything.

"This is Miss Marjorie's share of the show. It's twenty-six dollars."

"Oh, okay, thank you." Lin Yan took the money and nodded at the ticket seller.

When Lin Yan first heard this amount, he felt it was a little too little, but when he thought about it carefully, he realized that this was just the share of a performance. Even if they only performed two shows a day, the three of them could get more than 400 yuan each on average per month, which was considered a high salary in this era.

It was already 1:40 in the afternoon when he walked out of the theater. Dutch had already made an appointment with Josiah to meet in Central Park at 2 o'clock on his behalf, so now was the time to rush over.

"I'm going to Josiah to buy clothes now. Will you come with me?" Lin Yan asked Sadie.

Sadie shook her head: "Forget it, if there is nothing else, I will go back first. I hope you have a good night."

She deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the word "play", then gave an ambiguous smile, and got on her horse and left quickly before Lin Yan could react.

Lin Yan scratched his head in confusion, "What's there to do at the banquet? Besides, we're not going there to have fun..."

With a hint of doubt, Lin Yan found Josiah leaning against the park fence reading a newspaper in a corner of the central park. It is said that the home of this intelligence agent of the Van der Linde gang is in Saint Denis, so today he has come to his home ground.

Josiah was dressed like an upper-class man in a black suit, a black half-top hat, and white gloves. However, the scars on his face that had not yet healed made Lin Yan feel that he was a scoundrel who had just been beaten up.

Hearing the sound of horse hooves, Josiah looked up and said, "Ah, you're here, young man." After finding out that the person coming was Lin Yan, he put away the newspaper and greeted him.

"I'm here. Are you okay? How is your injury recovering?"

"Almost recovered. Thanks to you for finding Arthur in time that day, I was lucky enough to survive. It's a relief that Colm was caught. I'm now looking forward to watching his dying struggles up close on the day of his execution. Well, let's not talk about this," he put his arm around Lin Yan's shoulders affectionately: "Dachi asked me to help you dress up, let's do it now, you can't enter the mayor's house at night in what you're wearing."

"Come on, it's this store next door. I have to help you dress up so Dutch can't find any fault with you."

After tying up the horse, Lin Yan followed Josiah into the high-end clothing store.

At first glance, the clothing store gave Lin Yan a feeling of emptiness rather than luxury. Unlike other clothing stores, the entire hall was not filled with clothes. Here, you couldn't even see anything related to suits. If Lin Yan hadn't known in advance that he was in a clothing store, he would have thought he had entered the lounge of a 4S store or a sales office.

Luxurious carpets with intricate patterns, large and comfortable sofas, bright floor-to-ceiling windows, is this the place where the upper class spend their time?

The shop owner here is a red-haired man with slicked-back hair. After Josiah explained his purpose to him, he took out a beautifully framed album from under the counter and said, "This is all the clothing styles in our store. You can sit on the sofa over there and take your time to choose." After saying that, he made a gesture of invitation to Josiah and Lin Yan, then took the album and led them to the sofa.

After Lin Yan and Josiah sat down, he brought the teapot and teacups and poured a cup of tea for them. He stood aside and waited quietly for Lin Yan to finish his choice.

Lin Yan knew nothing about this kind of clothing. The shop owner was standing next to him, and he was too embarrassed to ask Josiah beside him. After flipping through a few pages and finding that the clothes were basically the same, he pointed to one of the styles and said to the shop owner, "Let's take this Whitemore suit."

"You have a good eye, sir." The shopkeeper took the album and said, "This three-piece suit is the best-selling suit in our store. Wearing it, you can cope with almost any occasion. Please follow me. I need to measure your size."

"Help him get a shirt, tie and leather shoes," Josiah ordered.

After obtaining all the data of Lin Yan's body, the shopkeeper opened a door and took down three cardboard boxes from the shelf behind the door with the help of a ladder. The boxes contained: a three-piece suit (blue vest, gray suit jacket, gray suit pants), a white shirt and black leather shoes. Finally, the shopkeeper chose a red, white and blue striped tie for Lin Yan.

After taking these things to the fitting room and putting them on all at once, Lin Yan looked at the tie and felt troubled because he didn't know how to tie a tie at all.

After trying to wrap it around his neck for a long time, he finally gave up.

"This guy has nothing to do but think about nonsense. It's just a decoration, why make it so complicated..." Lin Yan muttered softly as he opened the door of the fitting room.

When he found out that he didn't wear a tie, the shop owner immediately understood and helped him to wear it. His sense of service is really amazing.

Standing in front of the huge dressing mirror and admiring himself, I have to say that Lin Yan looks pretty handsome in this outfit. After pretending to do a few moves, Lin Yan nodded slightly to the owner, indicating that he was very satisfied.

Josiah paid generously. What surprised Lin Yan was that this upper-class outfit cost him more than 180 yuan. Fortunately, Dutch covered the bill, so Lin Yan spent the money with a clear conscience, and Josiah paid very happily.
