Chapter 20 Mary, who plays cards out of common sense
Cynthia, who pushed the door out, looked pale and struggled to walk. It is conceivable that her spiritual witch ceremony almost exhausted the girl's full strength.
At the same time, the more you can consume the ritual that holds the energy, the more it means that the success of this spiritual witch ceremony is.
Otherwise, Mary's mother's illness would not have been cured like a miracle.
Lu Yuan actually couldn't tell which time Cynthia seemed weaker than last time.
But this time Cynthia still seemed to have been pulled out of all her strength, and it was almost difficult to walk. She needed Mary and Su Mei to support her to walk.
And after receiving the news that Cynthia's mother might have improved, Mary rushed into the house very quickly, and then the girl's unpretentious cry came again from the house.
At this time, it was time for Lu Yuan and Su Mei to leave.
The twilight of Beckland in the thick fog drooped westward. The three of them bid farewell to Mary and boarded the carriage. They were still on the same route as that day. They sent Cynthia back to Nightingale Academy first. Cynthia was still worried and absent-minded, but this time she didn't say that if people were powerless, when Lu Yuan and Su Mei returned to the detective office, they could still see the lamp left for them.
Dinner is still a soup with lamb stew with bread, which will not change due to the convergence of the world line.
There was almost no words for the night afterwards.
The next morning, the whole day was a peaceful time based on the last experience. Lu Yuan still showed his few cooking skills and spent most of his time watching the fireplace and reading the newspaper.
Lu Yuan felt sorry for why Miss Ke Yao did not keep a cat. Miss Ke Yao said that when she was very young, she had a white cat named Lord Liu in the Huanglong Kingdom. However, for many reasons, it was impossible to bring Lord Liu to Beckland.
So although she also wanted to keep another cat, she never had a chance, nor did she have a cat that could make her fall in love with at first sight.
Lu Yuan can only express how warm and pleasant it is to poke a cat on his knee while reading newspapers while burning the fireplace.
Even if you say you want to shovel cat poop and feed cat food and remove cat hair, you will be willing to do whatever you want.
In fact, there was nothing else that was unnecessary today, and the news in the newspaper still had not changed. The bronze sculptures in the street square were still stolen. They left Beckland on a boat with the intern nurse from Nightingale Nursing School and headed to the distant country of Miracle.
Beckland in the fog is actually really charming. The air outside is gloomy and cold. You can see the almost negligible sun hanging high in the layers of gray and white fog. Outside the outline of the building, you can see the huge bell tower.
It is the center of Beckland and the landmark of Beckland.
But through the window, Lu Yuan and Su Mei did not have much mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery.
Because it can be said that Lu Yuan and Su Mei are waiting for Mary's visit most of the time today.
And Mary did not disappoint the two.
It was about half an hour after lunch and the doorbell rang. Su Mei immediately stood up and ran towards the door, while Lu Yuan followed tacitly.
They both were relaxed on the surface, but in fact they were very nervous on the inside.
Because no matter how you look at it, this contact is the most suspicious and dangerous, and it is very likely that it is the direct reason for becoming a gem person.
Outside the door, Mary was still wearing a black and white maid outfit. She stood at the door without entering. "I want to know the contact information of Miss Cynthia so that I can thank her in person."
"Miss Cynthia?" Lu Yuan said behind Su Mei, "How is your mother's illness now?"
"You may not believe it." Mary showed a happy look. "After my mother had a nap, she was almost completely cured and was able to get out of bed and cook."
Lu Yuan and Su Mei looked at each other, but this time, the expressions in the eyes of the two were a little complicated.
Such a strong sense of déjà vu is really uneasy.
"Really?" Lu Yuan asked.
"Of course it's true!" Mary said loudly, "so I wanted to thank Miss Cynthia in person. If it weren't for her, then I really didn't know what to do."
"Miss Cynthia." Su Mei pursed her lips, "Have you set out to the Qixiang Kingdom for her internship?"
"Really?" This time it was Miss Mary's turn to be disappointed, and her expression suddenly dimmed. "I even brought a gift."
As he said this, Mary took out a shiny stone from her pocket and showed it to Lu Yuan and Su Mei. Lu Yuan saw the blue gem the size of a thumb again, shining brightly in Mary's hands.
However, this time Lu Yuan directly felt that this gem was very terrible and dangerous.
"Where did you get this gem?" Lu Yuan asked.
"It's a secret." Mary pursed her lips, "but I just got it."
If the plot develops normally, Lu Yuan should say that he can let me see it if this is the case, let’s check this gem.
But this time, with the lessons learned from the past, Lu Yuan was silent for a moment, "I don't think Miss Cynthia would accept such a valuable gift."
"Why?" Mary asked incrediblely.
"This gem must be true. I saw it. It was bigger and purer than the gems on the jewelry of Madam, and it must be very precious." Mary couldn't wait to say, "I have nothing to repay Miss Cynthia. Only this gem is the best thing I can take out."
"Why won't Miss Cynthia accept it?"
"Because Miss Cynthia doesn't think that the reward she has done is worthy of such valuable rewards." Su Mei said.
In fact, the two of them did not rehearse the lines they want to say in advance, but some words can be said at will.
Since accepting gems is a saying, then rejection is of course another saying.
"Really?" Mary said disappointedly, pursing her lips.
"Of course it's true." Su Mei said lightly, "I believe that your life is the best reward for Miss Cynthia."
"For example, this gem is worse than Mary, you can sell it. In this way, you can get a lot of money to buy some nutritional supplements for your mother, which can also improve your life."
Mary looked down at the sapphire in her hand, then looked up at Lu Yuan. "Since Miss Cynthia doesn't accept it, how about I give it to you?"
Lu Yuan and Su Mei were a little stunned at that moment.
