Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity
Chapter 49 Divination
silence……
Most of the members were worried about whether the hidden danger would affect them, and even considered whether they should hide from the danger, but no one asked for it in a short time.
Joyce chuckled and broke the silence first:
"I need the complete snake letter of the blue-eyed gray python, and the three tail feathers of Buck's parrot, or related clues."
After a while, there was still silence... Well, it really didn't work. He finally understood the feelings of the fortune-telling lady who had searched for many times but failed.
I felt like I was here to warm up the scene... He asked again: "Is the friend who owes me fifteen pounds here?"
Katrin's petite body was hidden in the hood, and she couldn't help but slander when she heard this: I've moved, and this stingy rich man actually came to the party to collect debts, how persistent!
She promised: "Yes, the money is ready."
When she was about to withdraw the money, Joyce said again: "You just need to do me a favor, these fifteen pounds can be offset."
Then, the waiter passed a note, which said: Divinate me once, at 2 o'clock this afternoon, Four Seasons Cafe.
Divination... Katrin recalled the result of this guy's last divination of the future. It was inconsistent and very strange. This just hit her curiosity, so she readily agreed:
"Ok, no problem."
The exchange between the two really achieved a good warm-up effect, and the other members came to their senses one after another and started their own transactions.
Joyce watched with great interest, but there was nothing worth selling. Although he was not poor, it didn't mean he would buy some useless things...
For example, one of the male members is planning to sell a dagger, its effect is to apply the special effect of blood flow after stabbing the enemy...
This is very tasteless to Joyce who owns the "Blade of Repentance", but the effect is quite good, and it was bought by others at a high price.
Until, a member took out a delicate round mirror:
"This is an ancient artifact handed down from the Fourth Epoch. It is well preserved and has a little extraordinary power. As long as you look in the mirror for more than ten minutes a day, the chance of having nightmares at night will greatly increase, but it has no effect on extraordinary people. 50 pounds."
"Can I check first?" Joyce asked directly.
"certainly."
This person looked at him at first glance, because probably no one would buy such an item with only negative effects... Joyce held the mirror in his hand, it was cold, the mirror surface was very clear, and the frame was engraved with There are several cloud-like patterns, seven on the left and six on the right.
Other than that, there are no other frills.
After checking it over and over several times, I couldn't see anything unusual, so I bargained and said:
"In terms of the value of the ancient object alone, it can be up to 15 pounds, but considering the negative effect of the mirror, it may not be sold for 10 pounds... so, 20 pounds, I will buy it."
The male voice seemed reluctant: "My lowest price is 35 pounds."
Joyce shrugged deliberately, as if preparing to pass the mirror back:
"Then all I can say is sorry."
Seeing this, the male voice quickly said, "Okay, 20 pounds, it's yours now."
Paying the bill, Joyce put away the mirror and went on with the advertisement:
"The acquisition is still going on. As long as it is an ancient relic of the Fourth Epoch, I am willing to purchase it at a premium. I look forward to what everyone will gain at the next gathering."
Wearing layers of camouflage, it is impossible to see whether anyone is moving... Joyce could only watch the party continue, and did not participate in the transaction any more.
Moreover, he noticed that the "Seer"... No, it should be Ms. "Joker" now, and there is no material to buy. Doesn't it mean that she doesn't have the formula for "Magician"?
At the end of the party, the members left one by one under the arrangement of "Tian Bao", and Joyce became the first group of members to leave, which surprised him a little, and gave him the illusion that "Tian Bao" seemed unwilling to meet him.
…………
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Four Seasons Cafe.
The two who had just attended the extraordinary party masked a few hours ago met again in their true colors.
"You are on time."
Joyce said leisurely, a little confused to see Miss "Seer" took out many divination props including astrolabe, planetarium, tarot cards and so on from the suitcase.
Katrin said excitedly: "Because it took time to prepare the props, so I came late...how about it, which divination method should we use first? It doesn't matter if we can't do it once, we can try a few more times."
The beautiful face in front of me is comparable to Emily, but it lacks the allure, but it is more similar to the maid...Joyce was stunned for two seconds, and he unconsciously pointed to the props on the table:
"Here, these things... what do you want to do?"
"Divination for you!" Catherine said as it should be: "The result of your divination last time was too weird. Now my divination ability is stronger than before, and I will definitely be able to obtain accurate results."
Joyce covered his forehead with his hand: "Wait...I didn't want to divination my future today."
Katrin's expression froze slightly, and after thawing in the next second, she said:
"Why not? Don't you think the result of the last divination was strange? What about your curiosity?"
Being eaten by a dog... Joyce answered in his heart, he didn't dare to be curious because he had a big secret in him, so big that he didn't dare to try to touch it.
"There is a chance next time."
"It's next time..." Catherine muttered in a depressed mood.
Joyce forgot about the farce just now, and took out a closed note:
"I want you to help me divine the authenticity of this formula."
"Potion formula... your sequence?" Catherine asked curiously.
Joyce replied, "A fortuneteller should learn to respect fate and the privacy of guests, shouldn't he?"
"All right."
Katrin took the note, spread it out on the table, stared at Joyce without squinting, to prove that she didn't peek, raised her hand and put the bracelet on the formula, and recited the divination sentence:
"This recipe is real."
"This recipe is real."
...
The bracelet turned clockwise, proving that the formula was indeed true... Joyce breathed a sigh of relief. The formula was written by himself, because he was worried that the one written by Emily had the ability to reverse divination... Heart fucking opened the door to Congxin, and Congxin came home.
"Are you really not going to divination yourself? I have made a lot of preparations." Seeing him put away the formula, Katrin asked unwillingly.
Joyce was in a good mood and said with a smile:
"As a 'Seer', you are too curious, and sooner or later you will suffer."
"My request was fulfilled by you, and the accounts between us are settled."
Then, he picked up the coffee and took a sip. He watched Catherine put the divination tool back into the suitcase, but he didn't intend to leave. Instead, he drank the coffee like him.
"What else are you doing?" Joyce asked.
