In her hotel room, Shanara appeared relaxed, yet exuded a strong aura of hormones.
When she's outside, her expression turns icy cold, and she becomes as noble as an aristocrat, making passersby on the street afraid to approach her.
However, Lu Qing could understand. After all, many people behave differently in public and in private. When there are no outsiders around, people always become more authentic.
Five minutes passed quickly.
The group arrived at the main entrance of the Fenghua Opera House. Not far from the main entrance, the same administrator they had seen yesterday was still sitting at the counter, watching everyone passing by on the street.
When he saw Shanara and the others approaching, his expression immediately turned serious, and he stood up and said:
"Good morning, Miss Shanalyn and Miss Maid."
"Good morning, Mr. Administrator," Shanara nodded.
She turned her head and pointed to Lu Qing and Fang Qingrou, saying, "These two children are new actresses I found. Could you please register them?"
"Hey, aren't these the two girls from yesterday?" The administrator looked at Fang Qingrou and Lu Qing and thought to himself in surprise.
Without saying a word, the administrator sat back in his chair and quickly began searching through the notebook he had placed under the counter.
He was quite happy, after all, being able to see cute and energetic girls every day was a truly delightful thing.
Consequently, his resentment towards his superiors for assigning him to guard this boring place dissipated considerably at this time.
As for Shanara?
She was indeed very beautiful, but unfortunately her aura was too cold, making people hesitant to approach her. Even the administrator didn't dare to stare at her.
"Tell me your names and the roles you play, and I'll register them."
The administrator took the document book out from behind the counter and addressed Lu Qing and Fang Qingrou.
The two men stated their names, and the administrator quickly added them to the cast list before asking again, "What about the roles?"
Lu Qing turned to look at Shanara. Although she knew that the two of them were to play the roles of the protagonist and the protagonist's sister, Shanara had not yet told them who would play the protagonist and who would play the protagonist's sister.
“I’ll definitely play the older sister!” Fang Qingrou grabbed Lu Qing’s arm and patted Lu Qing’s head with her other hand.
Although somewhat dissatisfied with Fang Qingrou's behavior, Lu Qing had to admit that if anyone had to play the role of the older sister, Fang Qingrou was indeed more suitable.
Fang Qingrou was a few centimeters taller than Lu Qing, though Lu Qing wasn't sure of the exact difference. Besides height, the size of certain parts of her body was also...
It wasn't that she was too small, it was just that the enemy was too big, Lu Qing thought to herself.
However, Lu Qing didn't know whether Fang Qingrou or Lu Qing was older, since she didn't have the original owner's memories.
"Let Fang Qingrou play the lead role, and Lu Qing play the lead's sister," Shanara nodded.
"Oh, so they are the two most important characters?"
The administrator silently noted this down and then registered the two people's names on the form.
This form will be used after the performance; after the performance, it's always necessary to let people know who performed.
Although the administrator felt it was useless.
Nouveau riche who can afford to watch opera wouldn't care about such things. Many nobles go to the opera to bring their lovers and strengthen their friendships. Only a few nobles or wealthy people who genuinely love opera remain.
These nobles and wealthy people who love opera are actually more concerned with the name of the opera director than the name of the actor.
"Alright, the record is complete. You can go in now," the administrator said after finishing writing.
"Let's go."
Shanara was the first to walk forward, followed closely by her maid, Alice. Seeing this, Lu Qing and Fang Qingrou quickly followed behind them and entered the opera house through the main entrance.
Upon entering the opera house and seeing its interior, both Lu Qing and Fang Qingrou showed expressions of surprise.
Unlike the dim space yesterday, the interior of the opera house was now filled with light, with a huge, arched, stained-glass roof covering the top of the opera house.
The dazzling magical lights illuminated the entire opera house, creating a dreamlike atmosphere that made people feel as if they were in a fantasy world.
Seeing the surprised expressions on their faces, Shanara smiled and said:
"It's beautiful, isn't it? That's why I chose to perform at the Feng Hua Opera House. The designer here is a genius, especially the design of those magical lights at the top."
"Yes, it's very beautiful."
Lu Qing looked at the stage in the distance, where it was now filled with people wearing all sorts of clothes. In a dark corner not far away, Lu Qing also saw many monster costumes.
It looks like the actors playing the monsters will have to wear these costumes during the performance.
Besides that, what attracted Lu Qing's attention the most was actually a middle-aged man wearing one-sided gold-rimmed glasses.
The other person stood straight in place, holding a book in his hand and flipping through it continuously. While reading, he was also able to direct the other staff members on stage, as if he had an extra eye.
No, perhaps the other party really does have another "eye".
Lu Qing thought as she looked at the object that suddenly floated up beside the other person.

Chapter Sixty-Five: Wizard Scott
"Hey, wait a minute, don't go in!"
Suddenly, the administrator's voice came from behind her. Lu Qing subconsciously turned around and found that something had suddenly appeared on her shoulder.
"Vayne?"
Lu Qing looked at the crow perched on her shoulder with some surprise, and subconsciously reached out to touch its feathers.
"Gah, you forgot about me when you left. I flew all the way here following the contract," Wayne explained, standing on Lu Qing's shoulder.
At that moment, the administrator approached the group. She looked at Shanara and said:
“I’m sorry, Miss Shanara, that crow was flying too fast, I couldn’t stop it.”
Shanara glanced at Wayne on Lu Qing's shoulder, recalling how Wayne had just spoken to Lu Qing, and said:
"This is not your fault. This crow is no ordinary animal."
"Thank you for your understanding." Upon hearing Shanara's words, the administrator bowed and said.
"Okay, hurry back. Someone still needs to be on guard at the entrance. We can't let those reporters sneak in," Shanara said, patting the administrator on the shoulder.
"Yes."
Before leaving, the administrator glanced one last time at the crow on Lu Qing's shoulder, and then quickly flew away.
It was at this moment that Wayne finally spoke up: "Foolish human, how could he possibly stop me, hah!"
"Uh." Lu Qing smiled awkwardly, gently cupping Wayne's head in one hand, and said:
"I'm sorry, that's just how Wayne is, and it was my mistake that I left him in the room."
Upon hearing Lu Qing's words, Wayne on his shoulder immediately became unhappy, and he said somewhat angrily:
"Heh, I won't get angry over something as trivial as you leaving me in the room!"
"......"
Lu Qing silently increased the pressure on her hands, and Wayne immediately fell silent. Lu Qing's fingers were squeezing him so hard that his head was starting to ache.
"Okay, fine, I am a little angry..."
"Gah! Can you take your hand away now?!"
Wayne shook his head violently, then struggled to fly off Lu Qing's shoulder.
Lu Qing didn't continue holding onto him. Instead, she released her fingers and let Wayne run to a wooden stick above the opera house and squat quietly.
"Just stay there and keep an eye on things. Remember to let me know if anything unusual happens," Lu Qing said to Wayne.
"Gah!"
Wayne called out, but it was unclear whether he meant yes or no.
“Is that Miss Lu Qing’s pet? It looks quite special,” Shanara said, looking at Wayne above.
"I'd say it's a pet."
Seeing that Shanara didn't show any surprise on her face, Lu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. In this dream world where even wizards can create special effects for operas, what's so strange about a talking raven appearing?
Oh, speaking of wizards...
Lu Qing looked at the middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses on the stage. She saw that he had put down his book and was walking towards them.
Good morning, Ms. Shanara.
He looked at Lu Qing and Fang Qingrou and asked, "Are these the two people you found to play the main characters?"
"Mm." Shanara nodded and said with a smile:
"It's quite interesting, I hired those two from the mercenary guild."
"So, these two are actually mercenaries?" The middle-aged man raised an eyebrow, looking somewhat surprised.
"Don't worry, I've checked her out. Her singing skills are pretty good, not bad, but she just needs more practice." As Shanara said this, her gaze lingered on Lu Qing for a moment.
Shanara doesn't seem entirely satisfied with your singing skills. She feels you can sing better, and you need to sing better, only then can you be competent for the role of the protagonist's sister, since this character's importance in the plot is no less than the protagonist's.
"It's not that easy to clear the dream world," Lu Qing thought, glancing at the notice board.
This is only her second dream, and she's already using singing. If she enters a scientist's dream next, will she need to learn physics too?
At this moment, Lu Qing deeply realized the difficulty of becoming a Dreamcaller, but even so, she did not want to give up.
At the very least, if it's just singing, she can manage it if she tries hard enough.
At that moment, Shanara introduced the two sides simultaneously:
"Let me introduce you. This is Mr. Scott, who is in charge of art direction. He is a powerful mage, and he and his apprentices are responsible for set design, lighting, and other aspects."
"As for the two new actors, they are Ms. Lu Qing, who came here as a tourist, and Ms. Fang Qingrou."
After Shanara finished speaking, Scott looked at the two girls in front of him and said:
"Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you. In fact, we had prepared most of the things five days ago, so your timing is perfect."
"Let me show you around the set first. Anyway, it'll be about an hour before the official rehearsal."
Lu Qing looked at Shanara, and only after the latter nodded did she agree, and then she walked around the film set with Scott.
Contrary to Lu Qingzhong's expectations, this film crew felt quite similar to the movie crews she had worked with in her previous life, with teams responsible for lighting, makeup, props, and costumes.
