Chapter 92: Reading the Flames
The first is to read the flames.
After the candle was lit, Anne closed her eyes, crossed her hands, and muttered "What is my fortune for the next week?"
It took five minutes for the phone in her pocket to remind Yi Anne that it had been time before she opened her eyes.
The flame in front of him was visibly crooked to one side, and some of the excessively long wicks hung down due to gravity. Anne checked the direction, and the direction in which the flames were falling was due south. According to the general explanation of the previous reading of the flames, Iannie will have to go due south next week to solve some problems.
After thinking about it for a while, Yi Annie didn't remember where due south, but the divination was not over yet, Yi Annie first noted down this conclusion, adjusted the new round of mobile phone countdown, and continued to close her eyes and start asking.
"Will my life be in danger next week?" This problem is based on the various accidents of this week, which has already left Yi Anne with the shadow of a cup, and it is too tiring to continue like this.
When I opened my eyes five minutes later, the wick that had been hanging to the side had been burned, and the flame was now burning violently. There may have been some impurities in the wick of the candle, which caused a slight "crackling" sound, and the moment Anne opened her eyes, the flame exploded, and it was indeed like a lotus flower at that moment.
But the next moment, the petals of this flame lotus flower dimmed, and the firelight flickered unsteadily, feeling like it was about to be extinguished in an instant, which frightened Yi Annie to hold her breath, and even her heartbeat may have slowed down.
Fortunately, the last little flame stabilized, and the flame began to grow again from the size of a bean, and finally turned into a normal candle flame in the shape of a droplet.
At this time, Yi Annie was helpless, just looking at the candle flame for a few seconds, her mood was like riding a roller coaster, and she felt that her personal safety next week was still not guaranteed.
Anyway, let's move on to the next question first.
"Will there be a mysterious incident in the newly rented house next week?"
Five minutes later, when she opened her eyes, the light of the fire stabilized, and then Anne suddenly realized that she had asked the wrong question, and in this situation, did the fire mean that the mysterious event would happen smoothly, or would it not happen?
Anne pondered for a moment, then let go of the question, and went to work tomorrow to ask Catherine, just hope that Catherine will be in the office tomorrow.
Next question: "The current situation of the Inferno estate." ”
Yi Annie didn't know how to ask this question, since the highway here started to be a little wrong at night, but the forty-minute journey, when did it need to be divided into two sections? In addition, the call from Catherine, who was on the street in the parking lot of a fast food restaurant, was strange. Finally, after entering the Inferno estate, everything is not normal.
After opening her eyes, Iannie was a little dumbfounded, and a candle in front of her burned steadily, does this mean that everything is okay in Inferno Manor? So what is the inexplicable crisis she has felt along the way?
At this time, Yi Annie couldn't help but wonder if it was possible for herself to be in a different dimension, just like "Silent Hill", in a seemingly normal, but only silent and weird world.
Anne Yi thought back to it, and when she got off the highway, she also saw a large truck passing by, at least indicating that there was no problem when she was on the highway. Because Ferno's estate was in a very suburban place, it was normal to see no cars on the road, so Yi Annie did not have any doubts at that time.
Therefore, she didn't know if she was in another space, but the three calls she made tonight, Catherine, Inferno, and Inferno's mansion were not answered.
Yi Annie frowned, there was only one point left of the candle, and the burning time of 30 minutes on the package was just an estimate. Anne thought she had time to ask six questions, but now it seemed that she had only one question left, and that was the one Catherine had told her to ask.
Abandoning distractions, Anne took a deep breath and meditated on the last question.
"I'm going to be in danger next week."
Through her eyelids, Anne could vaguely feel the candlelight in front of her getting smaller and smaller, dimmer and dimmer, and finally fall into darkness.
She continued to ponder the question in her mind, and it wasn't until five minutes later that Anne opened her eyes.
It wasn't absolute darkness in front of her, but the headlights of the seaside let in a glow through the window, allowing Iannie to barely see the outline of things in the cabin.
Regardless of the results of the divination for the time being, Yi Annie took out her mobile phone and dialed Wang Yuxin's number, she wanted to confirm whether she had really fallen into another world. The call bell rang twice and was picked up, and Wang Yuxin's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Annie, is there something wrong?" ”
The call was connected, which was a bit unexpected by Anne, but it was a good thing: "It's nothing, I just told you that I arrived at Inferno Manor safely." ”
"Huh?" Wang Yuxin looked at her watch, "Isn't it only a 40-minute drive?" You've been driving for almost two hours? ”
"Well, I got off the highway halfway, had a cup of tea in the service area, and ate a doughnut......" Yi Anne didn't say that the divination took half an hour, let her think it was all Yi Anne's time for supper. In addition, she didn't tell Wang Yuxin about the strange situation of Ferno Manor, and subconsciously, Yi Annie didn't want to involve Wang Yuxin in the current matter again.
"Haha, that can only wish you a lot of weight!" Wang Yuxin's brisk voice came out of the phone, "It's almost twelve o'clock, I'm going to sleep, and so are you, I have to go to work early tomorrow morning!" ”
A smile appeared on the corner of Yi Annie's mouth: "Well, good night, good dreams!" ”
Putting down the phone, Anne breathed a sigh of relief, and it seemed that Catherine and Inferno might have some other reason for not answering her call.
Turning on the flashlight of her phone and putting it aside, Yi Annie picked up the piece of paper in front of her. The wax oil has completely solidified, and the wax oil is smoothly peeled off after rolling the paper a little.
Finally, the heat of the flame and wax dried the lemon juice drawn on the paper, and the cellulol contained in the lemon juice was roasted to a tan after heating, and certain lines and words were revealed under this effect, which was exactly what the divination results told Yi Annie that would be "life-threatening".
Even at a distance from the candle, a brown "S" is still visible. In addition to this, the line segment pointing to the west is also partially shown. If you look closely, there is also a small brownish-yellow dark spot pointing to the northeast. Under the light of the mobile phone, in fact, the entire circle closest to the candle has some dark color revealed.
In other words, there are dangerous things going on all around Anne, and there is no real safe place. It's just that there are very dangerous things in the south, there are certain dangers in the west, and there are relatively bad things happening in the northeast.
