Chapter 49 Summary Report
Jasmine thought that she should be afraid, but facing the female police officer in front of her, it was difficult to have too strong emotional fluctuations. After crying for a long time, her body and mind unconsciously settled down.
"Okay, what do you want to ask?" She asked slightly hesitantly after looking at her parents with complicated expressions.
The lady wearing the rank of superintendent pointed to the doorway:
"Go in and talk."
She didn't let Jasmine's parents evade, but ordered two of the policemen who followed her to stand outside the door.
After closing the door, she pulled a rough round stool over, and sat down unceremoniously, looking very relaxed.
This made Jasmine and her parents' spirits less tense all of a sudden.
"You can call me Ms. Grey." The officer introduced himself, pointing to the other chair and the outer bed, "Sit down."
After everyone in the room found their seats, Grey smiled and said to Jasmine:
"I received a report that some incomprehensible things happened around you. For example, men's desire for aggression is significantly higher than normal. This does not mean that there are no villains and criminals among them, but that the proportion is too high. Strange."
Having said that, Grey's eyes swept across Jasmine's face:
"As far as I know, you were seriously injured in a previous fire and had irreparable disfigurement, but now, I can't see that at all. What do you want to say about it?"
Jasmine's heart was suspended again, and she did not dare to hide anything, and said in a slightly flustered voice:
"I went out tonight to attend the carnival in the Plaza Mayor, and when I was passing a street, I met a wandering magician who called himself Merlin Hermes. He said he had invented a machine called a 'Automatic Wishing Machine'. , as long as you put in a 1p coin, whisper your wish, and turn the wrench, you can make your wish come true.
"He said I was the first to try it for free, and then, then, I went back to the way I was and all my injuries were healed.
"Officer, that's the way it is, you must believe me."
After speaking, she glanced at Ms. Grey and her assistant, and at her parents, trying to get approval from them.
But the expressions on her parents' faces were clearly saying:
"how can that be?
"How can there be a machine that automatically fulfills other people's wishes?
"How can there be a good thing where a wish can come true for a penny?
"and,
The first experience is completely free! "
Gray and her assistant didn't show any obvious changes in expressions, so Jasmine didn't know whether they believed it or not.
"Continue." Seeing her pause, Grey nodded encouragingly.
Jasmine hurriedly took herself home to get coins, and she described the two wishes of her parents to recover health and become beautiful, and finally said:
"I did become so beautiful that I couldn't even take my eyes off myself, which made me feel a lot of kindness, but then the men around me gradually scared me...
"In addition, my father and mother didn't recognize me and drove me out of the house. I was very scared, very scared, and went back there and made a third wish, um, the one named Merlin Hermes. The husband said that the first one is a free wish, and it is not included in the three wishes. In short, I changed back to my original state, and then I met you."
Hearing these words, Jasmine's parents instantly thought of the beautiful "thief" from before.
Then, they found that their bodies were indeed much healthier than before, their eyesight had been restored, their arms were strong enough, and everything seemed different.
They began to believe Jasmine's description, but they felt more and more terrified, because it was like encountering the devil, exactly the same as many folk legends.
Grey nodded slightly and said:
"I've seen many things beyond your imagination, but this is the first time I've heard of a 'full automatic wishing machine'.
"Compared with the wishing lamp and wishing pool in folklore, this is too modern."
After a pause, Grey's expression became serious:
"As a fairly experienced law enforcement officer, I have three suggestions for you:
"First, don't believe in similar things from now on. In most cases, the easy realization of wishes is accompanied by huge disasters. There is absolutely no problem in saying that it is the temptation of the devil."
Jasmine nodded heavily, expressing that she would never dare again—the last experience made her still feel scared to this day.
"Second, go to the church as soon as possible, confess this matter to the bishop, and ask him to purify." Grey looked around and said, "Your family must go."
Seeing that Jasmine and her parents both indicated that they were planning to do this, Grey looked at Jasmine again:
"My department is still lacking some civilian staff. You can consider joining us. In this way, I can monitor your situation at any time and handle exceptions in a timely manner. As for salary, believe me, it is similar to government employees."
Salary is about the same as a government employee...protection...and such a good thing? Jasmine asked in disbelief:
"What department?"
Grey smiled and said:
"I'll give you an address. You can come to my office tomorrow to find out the specific situation."
"...Okay." Jasmine was in a state of panic. Even if there was a straw in front of her, she would reach out and grab it.
…………
A week later, Jasmine officially joined the "Night Watchers" team in Limon City as a civilian.
"Captain, that wired telegraph is broken." She knocked on the door of Grey's room and said cautiously.
Grey put down the information in her hand, rubbed her forehead and said:
"Report it to the police and let them handle it.
"Really, in the past, I could directly ask the people from the 'Heart of Machinery' to help, and the repair was fast and good. Now, hey..."
When Jasmine went out, Grey picked up the materials again and started to read them carefully.
This is the information related to the "Automatic Wishing Machine" that the "Night Watchers" have collected in the past week.
After Jasmine, a similar incident happened more than once!
After turning over the information, Grey spread out the paper, picked up the absorption pen, and began to write the official document reported to the Archbishop of Constantine and the church:
"There have been many extraordinary events in this city in the past week, involving a peculiar machine called the 'Automatic Wishing Machine'. The current information shows that it was created by a wandering magician who calls himself Merlin Hermes, but not Excluding other possibilities, at least I think Merlin Hermes may just be an illusion created by this machine to induce people to use the machine to make a wish...
"This machine is brass-colored, inlaid with opaque glass, with exposed gears, bearings, rivets, metal pipes and other parts on the surface, it seems to be the product of modern industry...
"Case 1: A girl who was disfigured by fire encountered an 'automatic wishing machine' in Fields Street, Municipal Plaza... Her first wish was to change back to her original form, and it was fulfilled normally... Her The second wish is to restore the health of her parents, which has also been fulfilled normally... Her third wish is to become very, very, very beautiful, and then she no longer looks like herself, and has an effect similar to charm, so that The men around can't resist under normal conditions...
"She claimed to be the first person to use the 'Automatic Wishing Machine', so she had a free gift, and based on this, she canceled the third wish...
"Case 2: A retired soldier who participated in the defense of Limon and left severe psychological trauma encountered an 'automatic wishing machine' by the river... His first wish was to return to his mental state before the war. It has been fulfilled normally... His second wish is to make himself a little more handsome, reaching the level of a man on the cover of many magazines, and it has also been fulfilled normally... His third wish is to get 100,000 pounds, After becoming a rich man, he was spotted by the owner of the United Steel Company in Limon City and hoped to marry him. This lady's wealth was nearly 200,000 pounds...
"This veteran soldier is unwilling to accept a middle-aged lady who weighs more than 200 pounds and is less than normal height and has a tyrannical character. He is going to leave Limon and go to the south. If one day, he doesn't want to work any more, It is easy to get the nominal ownership of 100,000 gold pounds of wealth... In a sense, his wish has come true, but he himself is unwilling to receive it...
"Case 3...
"Case 4...
"Case 5: A teacher in a public school encountered an 'automatic wishing machine' in the corner alley near the Church of the Storm... Her first wish was to make herself look better, and not be disliked by students because of her appearance, Colleagues are isolated, which is a normal realization... Her second wish was to get a better position, and this was also realized - she soon became Became the most popular teacher with students and began to serve as vice-principal of teaching...
"Her third wish is to have a husband whose appearance, family background, character, and ability can't be picked out. She finally got a doll, which can talk, move, have a certain wisdom, and have the ability to live. Characteristics, appearance is quite handsome, from the top masters, what character do you want, it is what character, strong ability in all aspects, except that he is not a person, there is really no shortcomings...
"Case 6...
"...
"Combining these cases, we can get some initial guesses:
"The 'Automatic Wishing Machine' can appear anywhere in Limon, and the randomness is very strong, and I have not found any regularity for the time being...
"Most of the wishes made to it can be fulfilled normally, but a small part will be distorted. The latter is basically concentrated on the third wish. Of course, it may also be because the wisher is more indulgent when he reaches the third wish. Oneself, began to make too greedy demands...
"Most of its wishes are to change its appearance, but it involves a wide range, almost omnipotent...
"The frequency of its occurrence is also irregular...
"This is a typical magical item that needs to be sealed, and it obviously exceeds the level of a '2' level sealed item. I hope the archbishop and senior deacon will come to deal with it in person, or give an effective sealing method..."

On the steam train leaving Limon, Klein examined the digestion of his Miracle Master potion.
