After Fiona was confirmed countless times that her physical condition was really quite healthy, and her previous excessively pale complexion and migraines had completely disappeared, she was finally allowed to be discharged from the hospital. As soon as she was discharged from the hospital, she rushed to the playground without stopping , I want to see what happened to the amazing shop that Mary talked about that could help her financially.

She found the store easily according to the hand-drawn map left by Mary, and she knew what was going on as soon as she entered:

Isn't this the same place as the flower shop she opened in Gotham.

It's just that compared to Fiona's flower shop, which mainly sells flowers, with divination and psychic as auxiliary businesses, this shop doesn't have any flowers, and it completely takes the theme of "divination and psychic" as its selling point, so it's called "Divination House".What floats in the air in this small room is not the fragrance of flowers, but a faint, mysterious fragrance. If you look closely, there are light-colored smoke floating from the gap between the heavy curtains. , It should be some kind of incense that is lit.A pile of fabrics of different colors was piled up in the corner, and the table was covered with black flannelette, which is said to have the effect of concentrating the mind in occultism. The lady wearing a large cloak, holding a crystal ball in her hand, is talking to the girl who is sitting at the table and listening to her attentively:

"This relationship between you has not been very clear lately. There have been many unnecessary quarrels, and these quarrels are completely avoidable, but you just can't control your temper, can't you, girl? Oops, this look is No, no relationship can stay fresh through quarrels and trifles, and I'm afraid he is also very cold towards you recently, and you won't last long."

Hearing what she said, the girl immediately showed a convincing look and nodded: "Yes, yes, as you said, is there any way to remedy our relationship? I'm very sorry I love him, I don't want to lose him..." She was talking, because she was too emotional, and finally burst into tears, the man in the cloak was obviously the owner of this divination house, and she didn't stop for a while. He patted her on the back to comfort her while talking nonsense, and even started to promote his own products:

"Buy a pink crystal bracelet, girl, this is a crystal that can bless love, and it is a great weapon that can eliminate quarrels between you. As long as you wear pink crystals, no matter how difficult the emotional problems between you are, It can all be solved! If you buy two bracelets at once, you can also buy a transfer bottle at a discounted price. Wear this small bottle on your body all the time, and your luck will naturally improve. Think about it, after solving your problems After the emotional problems between you, your luck can improve, your studies can go smoothly, and you can get a good internship opportunity, perfectly avoiding the so-called "graduation season equals breakup season" curse, how wonderful, Yes or no?"

Fiona frowned.

The two sitting at the table had their backs to her, and Fiona's footsteps were so soft that the girl didn't notice her coming at first. Although the boss of the divination house saw her, Fiona Na has been standing at the door in an orderly manner, she doesn't look like someone who can pay for the things in the store, and she doesn't have time to greet Fiona, so she tries her best to look at the person in front of her who has obviously been talked about by her. The girl who was so moved and was about to bleed out of her pocket was exerting force on her body:

"Don't look at the small bottle, but when I made it, I carefully selected the rose essential oil of Damascus and soft clay, and infused it with aura. I didn't say that I lost money by selling it to you at this price. Hey, the troubles of youth are really good. Since you are in love and remind me of my girlhood, I will sell it to you cheaply. Only thirty dollars can be regarded as finding a good home for it. .With two bracelets, a total of $150 will do, not expensive."

The girl's completely convinced look hesitated after hearing the price: "...But if I buy them, I will have no lunch money for a long time to come."

The owner of the divination house saw that it was profitable, so he became more enthusiastic about fooling people: "Hey, you can't say that. Think about it, can something like luck be measured by money? Or, you Do you think the relationship between you and your boyfriend is not worth even this little money?"

The girl was immediately moved by her, just as she took out her wallet without hesitation and was about to pay for this small, ubiquitous boutique that only sells for a few dollars each, but is raised in this divination room. When I bought an essential oil bottle worth more than ten times the price and the three crystal bracelets with poor quality and fine crystals covered with snowflakes and flocculent patterns——

A slender, soft hand reached out from behind her silently, and as soon as it stretched out its fingers, it firmly pressed the mouth of her wallet.

The girl was taken aback immediately: "Oh my god! What ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

In fact, it really can't blame her for overreacting.Fiona's hand was originally white, and the table was covered with a pure black tablecloth, and she walked without making a sound. With the help of the three parties, her hand seemed more and more unlikely to be a living person's. The hand is more like the "fifth hand" that often appears in two-person photos.

Fiona raised her eyes, looked at the woman holding the crystal ball and staring at her for a moment, and suddenly smiled softly, showing the same big smile as when she held the girl's wallet just now. It has a completely different posture with the aggressive aura of "don't even think about taking a dime from here", and it can even be said to be respectful and gentle:

"Hello."

The boss of the divination house was really startled by her sudden appearance: "... Hello."

She stared at the girl warily: "Excuse me, what are you doing here? Interrupting other people's divination at will will bring bad luck."

Fiona looked at her for another moment without saying a word.She is obviously a little girl, no matter judging from the age of her face or her figure, she has not even completed her growth period. Teenagers of this age usually have endless curiosity about strange things He has the adventurous spirit of not knowing the heights of the sky and the earth, and a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, but Fiona can't see this at all.There is an inexplicable melancholy about her, coupled with the gray eyes, one of the standard features of Russian girls, it makes her a soft and pitiful elegance mixed with sadness up.

Seeing that Fiona hadn't spoken, the owner of the divination room felt confident. At first, she thought it was a colleague who came to mess things up, but now it seems that it's just a little girl who doesn't know the seriousness.It's easy to deal with such a situation, as long as she can produce something that can hold Fiona, then Fiona has nothing to say, let alone interfere with her business at will.

She decided to strike first: "Don't you believe in these things? It's no wonder that young people nowadays prefer things that are more practical and have quick results, and it's better to be tangible. But don't underestimate those things that don't seem to be something that exists—"

"—Because what you see is not real, and seeing it doesn't mean it doesn't exist." Fiona fluently continued the second half of the sentence, which is engraved behind the internationally recognized certificate held by every psychic , no matter how high or low the level is, there will be such a bronzing sentence printed on the back of the certificate held by each of them:

"Even if you don't believe it, you must be in awe and not despise it."

Fiona had seen a lot in her brief trial.To a certain extent, they are colleagues, but fundamentally, there is no similarity between them.

Compared to the shock of the divination house owner, Fiona decided to make a quick decision, because the longer the time dragged on, the more uncontrollable the girl's desire to pay, it was best to dispel all her thoughts for this once and for all. The idea of ​​spending money on planting things is the best policy.She bluntly said to the girl who was still trying to get money out of the wallet held by her:

"Don't buy these things, they are all fake."

"Are you kidding..." The boss of the divination room got up angrily. She is an adult woman, and she was obviously taller than Fiona by a certain amount when she stood up. From the perspective of the aura brought by her height, she was ruthless. He pressed Fiona's head hard, and said harshly:

"Who are you? Do you think you are a first-class young genius, and you just talk about it here? It's too wide! And you haven't seen how accurate my calculations were before, so why are you here? Say I lied?"

——At this moment, the girl finally realized how impulsive and ridiculous her previous behavior was, and slowly stopped taking out the money.

Until then, Fiona took her hand back from her wallet, looked back at the past without retreating, looked directly into the eyes of the owner of the divination house, and said softly: "I am not a genius, but A man of conscience and work ethic."

In principle, it is best not to tear each other down among peers, but if things happen suddenly and you encounter this situation, it is not just a matter of tearing down, it is a matter of professionalism, because the so-called The "transfer bottle" and the pink crystal bracelet are really, really useless, just crudely made things to swindle laymen out of their money:

"You're not solving cards, you're fooling people with an ambiguous set of factors that apply to everyone, ma'am. Although this profession doesn't require any qualification certificates, and doesn't need to pass any layers of examinations, There is a book and a deck of cards that I can make a decent appearance by myself, but one must have a conscience."

"It's fine even if you're solving the cards." Fiona took a rough glance and saw the array of cards that hadn't been put away yet, and found that it was the Sun, the Stars, and the Queen, and the three cards were completely missing. The cards with negative meanings were superimposed, and it had nothing to do with the "emotional quarrel and indifference" she just said. Under the extreme anger, her voice suddenly became a little louder, and the polite appearance had completely faded away. The gray eyes A bright and sharp light flashed inside:

"You don't have psychic abilities at all. Who gave you the guts to do divination? You obviously guessed it based on what you saw after asking her 'does she have emotional troubles'! You are divination, it is better to say that you are engaging in psychological warfare!"

The boss of the divination house suddenly weakened a lot: "Little girl, please don't spout blood..."

"You saw tears in the corners of her eyes. If she can walk outside while crying during the day, she must have a lot of emotions, and if she encounters relationship problems, it's probably because she quarreled with her boyfriend. That's why you just said that she's out of control." She still has the leisure to do divination, instead of calling the police or directly choosing to break up, it is probably not a major problem of principle, even if there is, she does not want to ask the police and family for help when encountering such problems, but chooses to come to divination Even people who are not quarrelsome will regard principled issues as small issues, so you say "a lot of unnecessary quarrels"; under your psychological suggestion, even if there are not many quarrels between them, you will imply that there are many quarrels between them. Yep, just created an opportunity for you to sell these deceitful things; this girl has spent nearly an hour with you, and her boyfriend has not called her or texted her to confirm her location and safety, so You dare to say at the last moment 'he is very cold to you'—" Fiona's speech speed also became faster, her mother tongue is not English, it is rare to be able to speak clearly at such a speed:

"What you see is far more than what you can solve!"

"This, this is all your guess!" The boss who had seen through the deception was speechless: "You, you guessed, there is no evidence at all..."

"It doesn't matter whether I guessed or not." Fiona smiled softly, pressed one hand on the table, and stood in front of her, a sharp cold light flashed in her gray eyes:

"The important thing is, what will your teacher Yelena Davydova think of you?"

After a crisp sound, the crystal ball that fell on the ground cracked several cracks from bottom to top, reflecting strange colors under the faint, deliberately dimmed light, but no one present had time to care That's it.The boss of the divination house has completely given up his dying struggle, and his eyes are full of panic and deeper fear of being seen through:

"...how did you see it?!"
