Chapter 47 The Third Wish

Jasmine was excited for a while, but still a little worried:

"What's the price to pay for this?"

In her opinion, the previous free trial does not need to pay a price and does not mean that the subsequent wish is also the same.

Klein straightened the high hat on his head and said with a smile:

"The pennies you pay are the price, and so is the corresponding change you have to suffer when you get your wish."

Jasmine nodded, seemingly understanding, and no longer hesitated, put her hand into her pocket, tried to find out a few copper pennies, and completed the wish.

However, her pocket was empty, with nothing but a handkerchief.

Having been at home for too long, she hasn't touched money for a long time.

Before, she relied on walking from her home to the Municipal Square instead of taking a trackless public carriage.

"I, I, can I go home first?" Jasmine asked annoyed and embarrassed.

"Of course, this is your freedom, but I don't guarantee that the 'Automatic Wishing Machine' will always wait for you here." Klein smiled in a magician's tone. "Sometimes, it is willful."

Jasmine said "um" twice, thanked him, turned around, and trotted in the opposite direction of the Municipal Plaza.

The more she ran, the more relaxed her body became, and she regained her state of health before being burned, and changed back to that young girl who was only seventeen or eighteen years old.

For her, this is a scene that only appears in a dream.

Of course, as an ordinary person, after running for a while, she gradually felt tired and had to slow down and start walking slowly.

The cool wind at night blew, and bright stars appeared in the high-altitude clouds. The trees by the street swayed gently, and swaying figures were sprinkled on the ground. All this was so quiet and beautiful, Jasmine only I felt that my body and mind were relaxed, and all my troubles went away.

For the first time since the injury, she was in such a peaceful mood, and she brought a little smile without knowing it.

After walking for about five or six minutes, she suddenly heard someone calling her name:

"Huh, Jasmine?"

Jasmine looked sideways,

Saw a familiar face, it was her original neighbor, Mrs Hamill.

"Good evening, Mrs. Hamill, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you going to the carnival?" Jasmine, who was not wearing a scarf, laughed heartily.

Mrs. Hamill was a woman with gray hair. She looked at Jasmine carefully and said:

"I haven't seen you since you moved out. I heard that you were injured in the previous bombing?"

"Yeah, but it's okay." Jasmine nodded heavily.

Then she asked:

"How is Julie now?"

Julie is Mrs Hamill's eldest daughter and Jasmine's past playmate.

Mrs. Hammill's expression turned cloudy:

"She was, she was bullied by the Feysacs, so she died..."

Jasmine was startled for a moment, thinking of her own experience while sad.

Once a Feysac soldier broke into her house and tried to insult her, but after seeing her burned face, she just kicked her and left.

"Poor Julie." Jasmine tapped four times clockwise on her chest with sadness and sincerity, drawing the stars.

After hearing about what happened to her friends in the past, she realized that she might be the luckier one.

Saying goodbye to Mrs. Hamill, Jasmine walked all the way back to the apartment where her family was.

Arriving outside the house, she slowed down, her mood recovered a lot, and she began to expect her parents to see her return to her original expression.

They should no longer hold the pain in their hearts and pretend that nothing happened. They will definitely cry with excitement and hug me happily... Jasmine took off the key hanging around her neck as a necklace, thinking about it, Opened the door.

The room was dark, neither candles nor gas wall lamps were lit.

On the bed outside, heavy and light snoring came, which formed a certain contrast with the liveliness of the Municipal Plaza.

They were all asleep... Yes, they usually work very hard... Jasmine closed the door gently, walked to her parents' bed, and quietly cast her eyes on the crimson moonlight shining in through the window.

Dad has a lot of white hair on his head, and his nasolabial folds have become so deep... Mom frowned when she was sleeping, her face was a little peeling, dry and rough... Only then did Jasmine realize that she didn't seem to be serious for a long time. Looking at the faces of my parents, I didn't know they were so old.

Before the war, her father was an accountant with a decent income and could afford to rent a townhouse, allowing his wife not to go out to work and concentrate on taking care of the family, but now, he can only enter the fabric factory and do heavy labor. , Jasmine's mother also had to leave the family and become a female textile worker.

Dad's health is also getting worse and he always coughs, but he has passed the recent unified examination for government employees, and when the interview results are announced, he can have a decent job... Mom keeps complaining about her eyes and hers Arms are getting worse and worse... Jasmine looked at her parents deeply and didn't wake them up.

She had already thought about her second wish.

Taking light steps, Jasmine entered the inner room and poured out the last few pennies from the piggy bank that was almost empty.

She then left the apartment and boarded a trackless stagecoach.

——She was afraid that it would be too late, and the "automatic wishing machine" had disappeared.

At this time, there were many passengers on the stagecoach, most of whom were going to the carnival. Jasmine glanced left and right, and seeing that there was no place, she had to hold on to the stand and stand in the aisle, huddled with many people.

In the early ten minutes, she got off the bus at the station and turned into the previous street.

When the brass-colored machine inlaid with a few pieces of glass came into view, Jasmine breathed a sigh of relief and approached quickly.

During this process, she looked around, but did not find that Mr. Magician named Merlin Hermes.

"It's really fully automatic, you don't need him by your side?" Jasmine whispered suspiciously.

She didn't waste time, she took out a 1p copper coin and put it into the "automatic wishing machine".

"I hope my parents will be healthy and the family will be prosperous." Jasmine whispered her wish, closed her eyes, and waited for a miracle to happen.

The next second, she heard the sound of jingle, as if a coin rolled out of the "automatic wishing machine".

Jasmine opened her eyes in amazement and looked forward, only to see that the 1p copper coin he had just put in had fallen into the small tray outside the coin slot.

Can this wish come true? Well, one wish can't contain too much? What I just made was actually equal to two wishes... Having had the experience of being cured of burns, Jasmine did not suspect that there was a problem with the "automatic wishing machine".

After thinking about it seriously, she put the 1p coin into the coin slot again, then lowered her head and made a soft wish:

"I hope my parents are healthy again."

This time, she heard a light tapping sound in the "Automatic Wishing Machine":

"Tude."

Seeing that the copper coin hadn't been spit out, Jasmine knew that her wish had been fulfilled, and she couldn't wait to go home and take a look at her parents' condition.

Holding back her excitement, she put in a second 1p coin.

She had planned to make a wish to make the family rich, but when she thought that her father was basically determined to become a government employee in Limon City, and the family income could be guaranteed, she couldn't help but have other thoughts.

After ten years old, she has realized the fact that she is not good-looking at all. This is not to say that people around her will despise her and say that her appearance is unqualified, but that among her playmates, there are two girls who are quite good-looking. For the sake of beauty, this allows them to be preferentially treated many times and experience the kindness of the world.

In this comparison, Jasmine will inevitably dream that she will become more and more beautiful as she grows older, but it turns out that dreams can only be dreams.

However, this time, the dream may come true, because in front of her there is a very magical "automatic wishing machine" that can create miracles.

If I can become beautiful, I can find a good husband, and the family situation can also be improved... Jasmine seemed to hear the devil whispering in her ear, closed her eyes uncontrollably, and made a wish:

"I want to be very, very, very beautiful."

She used three very to embellish the beauty.

As soon as she finished speaking, the "door" of the "Automatic Wishing Machine" opened again, and a silver-white mask was pushed out and covered Jasmine's face.

Jasmine opened her eyes, just in time to see the mask disappear.

At the same time, she seemed to be connected to something.

She turned around in anticipation, and came to the store on the street again, using the light of the gas street lamp and the glass on the window to see what she looked like now.

Jasmine couldn't describe the changes in facial features and facial contours for a while, only that at this moment, even herself was addicted to that beauty.

Her nose has become firmer, her lips have plumped a lot, her eyes have become larger and very moist, her skin is as tender as milk pudding, and she is only a little bit similar to the original.

"This, is this a miracle..." Jasmine exclaimed sincerely and uncontrollably.

She indulged in admiring herself, and finally withdrew her eyes and bowed to the "Automatic Wishing Machine".

Immediately, she walked towards the bus station platform with fluttering steps, and on the way, one after another glanced at her.

boom!

A man hit a gas light pole because he was too focused on her.

Jasmine pursed her lips and smiled, said nothing, and boarded the trackless public carriage.

There were still a lot of people in the car, and all the seats were occupied.

Just as Jasmine was trying to find a position, several men raised their butts, straightened their bodies, looked at her and said with a smile:

"Miss, you can sit here."

Jasmine was a little stunned for a while, not expecting to receive so much kindness.

She didn't refuse, she sat down nearby, and showed a smile to the man who offered her seat:

"Thank you."

The man's expression became extremely vivid, and he said humbly:

"That's what a gentleman should do."

Jasmine still kept the habit of being closed at home and didn't say much. She sat quietly near her house and got off the carriage.

After walking a few steps, she suddenly felt that someone was looking at her, and hurriedly turned her head to look over.

It was a drunken man who was looking at Jasmine with an indescribable disgust.

Jasmine was startled, and hurriedly walked to the apartment, but all the men she met on the way showed similar eyes one after another, as if they would turn into beasts at any time.

At this moment, Jasmine felt like she was walking in the wilderness.
