At Zhang Ye's maternal grandma's house.
"That was so amazing!"
"This is good, this is good!"
"How did that happen?"
"Just how on earth did he make it disappear?"
"Stop talking and keep watching."
…
At Old Wu's parents' house.
"Aiyo!"
"That gave me such a fright!"
"This—this—"
"Where's the apple juice? Where did the juice disappear to?"
"We have to ask Little Ye when he gets back!"
…
In a household.
"Dear, quickly come over and watch the magic show!"
"I'm playing mahjong."
"Stop playing! Come quickly!"
"What's the matter?"
"The magic show this year is unlike those from the past years!"
…
This was what close-up magic was. There weren't any grand scenes.
But sometimes, it was exactly such simple things that would thrill and excite people!
