2357 Witch Marys
After hearing the news from the assistant, Edwards was a little excited.
Maris, a mysterious and ancient gypsy witch. No one knows her name, everyone calls her Maris.
Edwards also got Maris' contact information by chance, but he had never contacted this magical wizard.
There are many legends about Marys, and even the earliest legends were during World War II. The coalition forces encountered the Ardennes counterattack, and the weather was bad and the air superiority could not be exerted. Several generals in the headquarters were at a loss.
At that time, a staff officer was said to have an ambiguous relationship with the young Marys, who talked about his troubles. With the help of love, Marys saw the future with her crystal ball, just like something written in the book later, with almost no deviation.
Of course, Mr. Edwards believes that this is just a rumor. Everyone likes to listen to these mysterious things, including many scientists, who believe it.
Edwards had no interest in this.
However, under the arrangement of fate, I learned that my efforts in the rest of my life would be abandoned by capital as I lost the Nobel Prize, and everything would be like a bubble, breaking with a piercing, without leaving any trace.
His heart was broken.
At this time, he chose to believe in Marys. No matter how much the price he paid, Mr. Edwards was willing.
It is said that every time Marys and the others look at the future with crystal balls, they come at the cost of life.
Nothing can buy life, so Mr. Edwards is not sure if the mysterious Marys can help him.
The video is connected, and the background seems to be in an ancient castle. The crystal ball in front of me is flashing with a crystal luster. Mr. Edwards felt that he had fallen after just one look.
Behind the crystal ball is a person wearing a black robe and a cap covering her head and face. Judging from her appearance, she can never tell her gender.
"Are you looking for me?" A gloomy voice came from behind the robe, and Mr. Edwards shivered involuntarily.
After hearing Marys speak, Edwards feels that his vitality has been pulled away by the crystal ball with its brilliance.
She spoke English that was not fluent, and Mr. Edwards could barely understand.
Trying to keep yourself smiling, Edwards stood up with a cane and bowed, "Dear Ms. Marys, please forgive me for your disturbance."
"Time is for wandering, my child." Marys's voice came over. At the same time, the crystal ball burst out with a faint but indelible light.
Edwards felt that his heart was stabbed by the light, and his heart attack seemed to be getting worse.
"Tell me your humble request." The mysterious man in black said lightly.
"I want to know if I can win the Nobel Prize this year." Edwards asked in a trembling voice.
Next, Ms. Marys should tell herself what she would give so that she could see the future not far away, Edwards thought to herself.
Time is not far away, only a little over two months, hoping that the price will be smaller. After the anger just now, he began to calm down.
Even if you know the future, what can you do?
Change? What can you change when facing Lord Kerry of the Bruch family?
If the price is high, I will refuse. Looking at the black robe and with a mysterious and weird emphasis, Edwards didn't want to continue dealing with her.
I am already in my twilight years, wouldn't it be better to live for a while? Edwards even worried that Ms. Marys would use her life to complete a mysterious and weird ritual, and use the crystal ball in front of her to see an unchangeable future.
"Child, please praise your good luck. Someone has already seen this matter with me, and I will know the answer now." Maris's gloomy voice came over.
Edwards was stunned for a moment. Someone had seen it first? There were so many people who were concerned about this matter.
"You are such a lucky kid without paying your life."
Edwards was overjoyed and he immediately asked, "What's the price? What's the money? How much?"
The crystal ball opposite the screen flashed with light, and with the strange light hesitant, Edwards seemed to realize something.
"I will send you money right away." After saying that, Edwards waved and called his assistant to come over.
There is an extra email in the email address, which contains the account of a certain bank.
Things that can be solved with money are trivial matters, Edwards thought to himself.
"Child, I can tell you the answer first," said Ms. Marys. "My fire of life has become weak after the last divination. I need time to rest."
“You won’t get the Nobel Prize you want this year.”
After saying that, the screen signal was cut off. The flashing light of the crystal ball became the last trace of light and shadow, remaining in Edwards' retina.
It was like the sun burning out the last trace of energy and annihilated in the vast universe.
Edwards was a little dazed. Is it really not possible? He sat down dejectedly and his crutch hit the ground with a "splash".
...
...
"Marys, you're cheating on those poor little guys again." Christian sat aside gracefully, watching the light in the crystal ball disappear, and said with a smile.
"Mr. Kerry, we are a wandering nation and have no fixed place to live. To ensure that our people can survive, we must use money."
Marys said with her hand on the crystal ball. Her hands were completely fat, especially when her hands were moving, she could vaguely see the movement of muscles and the color of the bones.
"Damn it, take your hand off the crystal ball." Although Christian said a swear word, his expression was still so elegant. He even raised his glass, and the bright red liquid in the cup ripples slightly.
"Mr. Kerry, is what you said true?" Maris asked in a hoarse voice.
"Of course, I still remember how you were dancing by the bonfire many years ago before you became a witch." Christian smiled and said, "And I told you a secret that is not a secret, and you can have a slim income."
"You still remember when I was 5 years old, I forgot."
"You know that the people in our Bruch family have a very good memory," said Christian. "Can you take off your black cloth? Looking at this black cloth, I feel uncomfortable all over, and I always feel that you will disappear at any time."
“As you wish.”
A pair of skeleton-like hands stretched out, held them on both sides of the wide black cap, and then took off the cap.
A skeleton appeared in front of Christian.
