Chapter 42: Eavesdropping
'Ding Dong'
"Who's out there? Well, you're the one? Clear words reached Quinn and David's ears.
Quinn smiled and hurriedly responded, "Hello, my name is Quinn, is Elise there?" β
'Wang! Woof! Woof! A dog barked and interrupted what the people in the room were trying to answer.
"Good dog, it's okay, let's go up," said an old blonde lady who looked to be in her late sixties, opening the door through a crack, and then said to Quinn, "I am Elise." β
Quinn: "Hello, nice to meet you! β
David raised his eyebrows and looked at the haggard old lady in the distance, are you Elise? Aren't you able to hide your body, your face, and your name? Is this odd? And Gulik said you're a man!
David's face was full of joy, fortunately there was someone who went to find his own death! lest you have to probe your face into the grass! Miss Quinn is a good person, give money! You have to pay for everything! As long as you can come out alive, why not give you two stacks of beautiful knives?
Just as David was thinking wildly, the sound of the conversation between the two came from the earphones again, and David hurriedly raised his binoculars to peep again.
Quinn looked at the haggard old man in front of him, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "Oh my God, I'm sorry to bother you, your name was told to me by a friend of mine, and your name is Macalena Fink."
Elise leaned against the doorframe, remembering his name.
"Uh... Amilo! Amilo is his mother! Mrs. Amilo, well... She told me that you were a psychic, and that you were very good when she saw you..."
Elise also nodded abruptly and said, "Oh... I still remember Amilo."
"Great," Quinn said delightfully, "she's great... Well... She's a nice guy and she tells me how good you are!
She gave me your phone number, but I couldn't get through, so so... I'm really sorry to take the liberty of bothering you..."
Elise shook his head and said, "It's okay... But if you're looking for someone to psychic you... It's a shame I don't do this kind of work anymore."
Elis's words were full of exhaustion, and the corners of his eyes were slightly red.
"I've got the money, fifty dollars, right?" Quinn hurriedly said.
Elise smiled and shook his head, "It's not because of this, baby... I really can't help it, and I'm busy, soβ" Elise shook his head again, his refusal needless to say.
Quinn nodded in frustration and said, "... Well, sorry to bother you..."
Elise looked at the lost girl in front of him, seemed a little unbearable, and asked, "Where are you from... Where are you from? β
Quinn said, "Orchid Park"
Elise smiled lightly and said, "It's far from here."
Quinn noticed that he seemed to be a bit of a miserable seller, and hurriedly said, "Yes, but it's not a big problem, the main thing is that I'm too abrupt, and I'm sorry for wasting your time." β
"Why don't you come in and sit for a while? Just stay with me, an old lady. As long as you have a good conversation, it's not a waste of time, is it? Elise shrugged and said.
With that, Elise stepped out of the way and ushered Quinn into the room.
Here it comes! Here it comes! David was excited to hear it, and the ill-intentioned psychic tricked the ignorant girl into the house, and drawing a book is a long-standing topic, Davy finally saw MAX3D today, maybe he can unlock the true face of the mysterious psychic?
David put down the telescope, and the obscuration of the house made the telescope useless, and he could only listen intently to the conversation between the two.
Elise: "You may be seated." β
"Thank you"
Elise sat across from Quinn, looked at the backpack he had put down, and said, "Quinn, you're a very smart girl. β
Quinn wondered, "Look at who you compare to, why do you ask that?" β
Elise smiled and said, "You're smart, you've read a lot of books, and you have a lot of books in your bag. β
Quinn suddenly realized and said, "That's right, I like to read. β
Elise continued, "What is it that made you abandon the science in your hands and come all the way here? β
Quinn paused, smiled a little reluctantly, and said, "I want to communicate with someone who has passed away... Speak up. β
Elise asked, "Who is that man?" β
"My mom, she passed away a year and a half ago, and all I want to do again... Ah, I'm guessing you'd say it's an impulsive thing that everybody does. β
Elise shook his head and said, "Tell me about your mother." β
With a smile on the corner of Quinn's mouth, he suddenly fell into the memory, and said, "She's a very nice person, well, for example, she gets along with all my friends!"
Haha, she also loves classic oldies like vinyl and stuff like that...
She always wanted to talk to me...
Sheβ" Quinn's tone choked up a little, and he looked up trying not to let the tears fall.
"Sorry"
Elise shook his head in surprise and comforted, "No, no, no need to apologize"
"You know, I feel like she's there for me sometimes?"
Elise nodded, but didn't speak.
"Like at night when I'm alone in my room or when I'm sleeping and I'm woken up by something, I also find something in strange places, like I find my diary in strange places... I don't know how to say it."
Quinn stroked his hair and said, "Whew~ I know this sounds a little crazy"
"Not for me, you know my profession, don't you?" Elise said, "You tried to get yourself in touch with your mother, didn't you?" β
"Yes, yes, I mean I tried, and I begged her to talk to me." Quinn paused, "But she never responded to me, and that's why I'm here!" I really need to ask her a few questions."
Elise nodded, looked at Quinn with a loving face, and said, "I know how you feel."
Quinn looked at Elise in front of him with a worried face.
Elise sighed and said, "Okay, you win, I'll try to help you communicate with your mother, but I can't guarantee any results..."
"Great!" With tears in the corners of his eyes, but still smiling, Quinn lowered his head and took out his wallet in his backpack, and said, "Please take it, take this money!" β
Elise hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no, I'm no longer in this business, if I accept your money, won't I start again?" β
Quinn stopped what he was doing, there is no such thing as politeness in the Americans, and you will definitely not give it if you say you don't want it.
Putting the wallet back in the backpack, Quinn saw the black button-like object at the bottom of the backpack, and she wondered where it came from, but it was not a good time to dig deeper, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
Elise asked, "What's your mother's name?" β
Quinn, who got his wish, said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Lily! Lily Brenner! β
Elise took a few deep breaths, then closed the doors and windows, closed his eyes, and leaned back on the couch.
"I'm going to summon and try to connect with Lily Brenner!
Lily, if you could hear me! Please answer me!
Lily... Lily, Lily! Are you here? Elise sat on the couch with his eyes open, as if calling for someone.
Quinn stared at Eliss expectantly.
Elise suddenly frowned: "I heard someone here"
"Is it my mother?" Quinn asked.
Elise frowned, his eyes tightly closed, as if in a state of recognition, "... No! Not your mother! β
"Go away! Go away! Elise's cheeks trembled slightly, as if he were struggling with something.
Quinn also sensed something, and turned his head to look behind him, but there were only empty tables and chairs behind him, and Quinn turned his head in disappointment and looked at Elis with his eyes closed again.
Suddenly, Elise clutched his forehead and cried out in pain, "Go away!! β
Then he opened his eyes and looked around blankly, only to realize after a moment that he had returned home.
Getting up and pulling back all the curtains, Elise sat down in front of Quinn, shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I seem to have some problems and didn't communicate with your mother"
Quinn covered his face in disappointment,
Elise said, "There are other psychics, you better go find someone else."
But Quinn, listen to me, it will all pass, don't try to summon your mother yourself!
You have to be very careful, because as long as you communicate to the deceased, then all the dead can hear!! β
