Chapter 207: Chapter 160 Why Does This Magician Always Mess Up?_2
"The Animal Protection Association is pissed off!"
Normally, the audience of this show wouldn’t be too vocal, and the staff would remind them to keep it down so as not to affect the live broadcast. However, it was quite evident that with the arrival of Jiang, the Great Magician, today, the spectators were particularly lively.
As if.
Jiang Shu glanced at the audience and immediately spotted three tablet spirits with thick eyebrows and extremely flat features hiding amongst them. The previous three snarky comments had been synthesized by them, and this naturally provoked laughter and agreement from the audience.
After drinking the potion, the little mouse didn’t immediately foam at the mouth and collapse. Instead, it bravely took a few steps forward, then licked its paws as if savoring the potion, and again took several steadfast steps forward and licked its paws.
Then, after a few more steps, it disappeared.
Yes, disappeared. There was no mouse on the long table anymore, as if it had never existed.
Audience: "???"
Who just said this potion was useless?
You’re not being honest, how can you lie with your eyes wide open?
"Ah, I told you this potion works!" The previous smart aleck suddenly blurted out, trying to act clever.
But Jiang Shu acted as if he had seen and heard nothing. He walked up to a glass door, opened it, stuck half his body inside before turning back to the audience, "Wait a second, let me change my clothes, this one always reminds me of charlatans. You know, I’ve always been a believer in science. Ah, long live science!"
While speaking, he waved his fist and then stepped through the glass door.
It was a frosted glass door, the kind you can’t see through clearly but can tell there’s something behind it, similar to the glass used in hotel bathroom doors.
Through the glass door, the background wall was still easily visible, making it obvious that it was a translucent door.
"Classic belief in science."
"Belief in science, better late than never."
Some of the audience, who had seen Jiang Shu’s performances before, couldn’t help but mock.
"Damn, look, he’s gone again!" At this moment, the more observant audience members had already noticed that Jiang Shu had vanished behind the glass door.
The background beyond the door remained, but the person was no longer visible.
And what was even more eerie was that the audience could vaguely see Jiang Shu hanging a red cloak on the wall along with a white robe.
But there was no sign of him, no human figure at all.
"This..."
"Thermal imaging shows he’s still right behind the glass door, but invisible, where is he?"
The audience was once again abuzz, their vision clashing with the tech of thermal imaging.
"I’ve got it! That door must be projection glass, what we’re seeing is just a projected image!"
At this point, one audience member seemed to have figured something out, shouting loudly. This idea quickly spread through the audience, but some refuted it.
"You’ve figured it out again?"
Soon, perhaps after Jiang Shu had changed clothes, he pushed the door open again but seemed to have used too much force, causing the entire glass door to come off its frame and "clang—crash—" it shattered on the ground.
The glass scattered on the ground, shards and larger pieces strewn across a corner of the stage.
"Ah, I accidentally broke it." A look of annoyance and apology appeared on Jiang Shu’s face, but soon, he swept away the glass shards with a broom and dustpan that were nearby.
Immediately, the audience noticed certain details.
"This is... it’s just regular glass, with nothing on it, how could it be a projection?"
"Right, where’s that know-it-all from just now?"
"Feels like Jiang Shu knocked the glass down just to slap those people in the face, haha, can’t they accept someone else’s strength?"
"That’s right, it’s just a little magic, isn’t it? Maybe the know-it-all wants to come out and explain again?"
But obviously, the know-it-all would not and could not speak again, because such a scene and such imagery had surpassed his comprehension.
"So, let’s continue talking." Jiang Shu finished cleaning up the glass fragments, now dressed in something resembling a raincoat.
"Just now we were talking about ancient invisibility, that’s right, invisibility." He mumbled to himself before continuing, "Putting aside those impractical Invisibility Potions, generation after generation of scientists have truly been researching Invisibility Cloaks."
Audience: "Impractical, note that down, it might be on the test."
"Like this." Jiang Shu seemed to activate something, and the part covered by the raincoat instantly became transparent, allowing the audience’s gaze to easily pass through his body and see what was behind him.
The current situation turned into Jiang Shu’s head floating in mid-air, creating a rather eerie spectacle.
"Dammit, he’s invisible again, and this time without even pretending."
"Same old story, believe in science, my friends."
Jiang Shu laughed, "This time you really should believe in science."
Patting the raincoat, he explained in a relaxed tone, "The back of the raincoat is lined with tiny cameras, while the front has projection equipment. The principle of becoming invisible is just like this, capturing what’s behind and displaying it in the front in real-time. It’s just live filming and broadcasting."
Having said that, Jiang Shu theatrically spun around to show the tiny cameras on his back to the audience below.
