Chapter 7: The Sirens


September 8, 4 o'clock in the morning.

This is the darkest hour before dawn.

A figure is walking hurriedly on the road, carrying another person on his back.

Passing through several deserted streets at a very fast speed, he stopped in front of a building, opened the door with the key, and quietly climbed to the second floor without alerting the landlady.

Mr.

Cat walked out of the room in his nightgown, with the same half-asleep expression on his face as during the day.

However, when he pushed open the bathroom door, his entire face froze for two seconds, and then he actually closed the door again.

"Are you sleepwalking?

It seems like you've been under too much pressure recently."

"What are you doing?"

Wang Xu chased him out of the bathroom: "What was your reaction?"

"You are just an illusion.

Why are you yelling?"

"You are just hallucinating.

Come face reality."

Mr.

Cat sighed deeply and looked into the bathroom again: "What is that?

Where have you been these past few hours?

In fact, I have been sleeping for a whole year.

If you can, let me continue to sleep."

Bar" An hour later, Wang Xu walked out of the bathroom: "I gave her something to eat, and she fell asleep in the bathtub.

Oh my god, the water in three tanks was blackened, and after washing it, it looked even more shocking. ” Mr.

Cat was lying on the armchair and said calmly: "She must be suffering from some kind of curse.

If it is not lifted, this illness will continue until she dies."

Wang Xu said: "Then how to remove the curse?"

"I've lifted it."

"What time" "Before you wash out the first tank of water."

"Just come in and walk around for a while and you'll be done."

Master Mao explained: "Actually, it is not difficult to undo the curses of foreigners.

To put it bluntly, it is a kind of sustainable spell that is activated through a certain object or a certain ritual.

Its operation always depends on something.

Energy, such as spiritual power, telekinesis, witchcraft, whatever.

For example, just like the curse in Sleeping Beauty, the initiation ritual is that the princess is pricked in the hand by the needle on the sewing machine, and the lifting ritual set by the caster is the prince's kiss.

Ordinary people naturally have to follow this procedure, so this type of wizard appears mysterious and has boundless power.

For us psychics, there is no difficulty.

We only need to use spiritual power to get rid of the energy that is acting.

I just noticed her abnormality and easily lifted the curse. " Wang Xu nodded and said, "Oh, that's right.

I didn't expect you to enjoy helping others."

Mr.

Cat sneered: "Ha, you have rescued her.

What else can I do?

It's hard to dispose of her body when she dies in the bathroom, isn't it?"

Wang Xu was too lazy to complain to him.

He then asked: "I still don't understand one thing.

Even if it is a curse that makes her like this, can a mermaid eat people when she is extremely hungry?"

Mr.

Cat replied: "I don't know what a mermaid will do when she is very hungry.

I only know that she is not a mermaid at all."

"Ah no" "Hey, it seems I have to teach you a lesson.

Where to start?

Yes, by the way, it was in ancient Greece."

Wang Xu interrupted rudely: "Let's get to the point."

Mr.

Cat shook his head and sighed: "Young people today are really impatient.

To put it simply, she is a siren, and the siren in Greek mythology refers to her.

According to legend, the sirens were the daughters of the river god Ecroeus, and were beautiful fairies born from his blood.

Many years ago, they were in the form of a bird with a human head.

Because they failed in the music competition with the Muse, their wings were removed, making them unable to fly.

So they swam in the sea and transformed into mermaids, attracting people with their singing and beauty.

The sailors suffered a devastating disaster.

You may have heard such stories, such as sailors who were attracted by the singing and eventually caused the ship to hit a rock, or someone on the ship saw a beautiful woman sitting on the rock and jumped into the sea to look for it, but never came back. .

Anyway, the ending of these stories is undoubtedly that the sea monsters have a feast and no human bones are left. " Wang Xu swallowed and looked back at the door of his room: "So I should actually kill her."

Mr.

Cat said: "You can't say that.

In fact, there are some legends.

The sirens may have been sea gods or sea elves at first.

Well, according to us Chinese, they were fairies.

Andersen's Daughter of the Sea is based on them, isn't it?

If you haven’t read that book, you must have read Disney’s The Little Mermaid.”

The corner of Wang Xu's mouth twitched twice: "Forget it, I'll save them all, help them to the end, and send Buddha to the West."

Mr.

Cat took a sip of coffee and said, "You rescued it, and you are responsible for it.

I am very busy today and have to go out soon."

"At dawn, you are going to go out to pick up girls."

Master Mao replied in English: "No, no, I have already said that my relationship with that lady is very pure, and I purely admire her."

"Master, please speak English to me.

What bothers me the most is your British English.

You can only say a few nonsense words and still be polite."

Master Mao shrugged and brought the topic back to the topic: "My schedule is very planned.

I have a lot of things to do all day today.

Don't forget, today is September 8th.

It will take about forty minutes."

Later, the body of Anne Chapman will be found.

She is the second confirmed victim of the Ripper.

I want to investigate in the short period between the Ripper's escape and the discovery of the body. " Wang Xuxu raised his eyes and said, "Oh, then you should do your business first and then pick up girls."

Mr.

Cat got up and went back to his room.

Before closing the door, he said: "Take care of yourself, or be careful of being eaten by the fairy daughter you rescued
