After much hesitation, Edgar Austin finally suppressed his curiosity and did not reach out to wipe off the ointment on his left eye.
Edgar Austin wrapped the gauze around his head again and returned to the bed. He thought a lot and didn't fall asleep until one o'clock in the morning.
It was already after eight o'clock in the morning when he woke up. Edgar Austin felt that his left eye no longer hurt at all, and there was no other uncomfortable feeling at all. He went to the bathroom again, looked in the mirror and took off the gauze from his head.
In the mirror, the ointment covering my eyes has become very thin, and the feeling of seeing light through the ointment has become more obvious.
"What on earth is going on? Is my left eye okay?" This thought made Edgar Austin excited. He could no longer suppress his strong curiosity. He carefully applied gauze on his left eye. Wipe off the ointment.
His left eye was slightly painful during the process, but it was not unbearable.
After wiping off the ointment, light entered his eyes, and Edgar Austin clearly saw himself in the mirror, as well as his left eye. His left eye was as black as ever, and there were no obvious scars on the eyeball, but there were still burn marks on the skin around the eye socket.
Edgar Austin was stunned for a moment, and suddenly clenched his fists in excitement, "My eyes are not blind! My eyes are not blind! Haha, my eyes are not blind!"
At this time, a doctor on duty walked into the ward with a nurse, and happened to see Edgar Austin standing in the bathroom, dancing and excited.
"Hello? Why did you take off the gauze?" The nurse said fiercely: "Are you crazy? Are you the eyes you don't want?"
Edgar Austin didn't seem to hear anyone talking behind him.
"Hey! Young man, if you don't follow the doctor's orders, we don't have to admit you." The doctor on duty also had an unfriendly attitude, "Did you hear me?"
"Forget it, if his injury needs to be treated, it will cost at least 200,000 yuan. Can a person like him afford such a large sum of money?" the nurse said sarcastically.
Edgar Austin finally came to his senses and turned around. At that moment, his left eye twitched slightly, and he seemed to see the nurse's perfect, convex figure, which was not covered up. The beauty immediately startled him, but when he looked at it again, it had disappeared. All he saw was the temptation wrapped in the nurse's skirt. Although the curve was good, it was completely different from what he saw just now.
"This... this must be an illusion. How could I have such an illusion?"Edgar Austin was filled with surprise and curiosity.
"Hey, are you talking to me? What's wrong with you?" the nurse asked dissatisfiedly.
The nurse actually didn't react yet, but the doctor did. He stared at Edgar Austin dumbfounded, and then pointed at Edgar Austin's left eye, "What's wrong with your eye?"
Only then did the nurse react, and her jaw dropped to the ground.
Edgar Austin grinned and said, "My eyes will heal on their own. I really can't afford that much medical expenses, so I won't be hospitalized anymore. I want to be discharged."
The doctors and nurses looked at Edgar Austin like they were looking at monsters. The most surprised and puzzled person was naturally the doctor. He had actually concluded that Edgar Austin's left eye was blind. He said he had a chance to regain his sight, but he just wanted to earn more medical expenses. But now, Edgar Austin is looking at him with wide eyes!
I'm afraid only God can explain what happened to Edgar Austin.
Xia Lei left the hospital an hour Edgar Austin. Anderson Chambers only used one thousand of the ten thousand yuan he paid, leaving nine thousand yuan left. This money naturally fell into his pocket, which was regarded as compensation.
The sunlight outside was dazzling, and Edgar Austin's left eye couldn't adapt to it. He gave up the idea of looking for Kaiden Barlow, called a taxi and returned home.
The house left by my parents was not big, 75 square meters, with three bedrooms and one living room, and each room was small. There are no valuable furniture or appliances in the house. Everything in the house is more than ten or several years old and very old. But these old things always bring a sense of peace to Edgar Austin, as well as some memories of his parents.
Back home, there was no strong sunlight, and Edgar Austin's left eye felt better.
"What on earth is going on? It feels like I had a strange dream..." When it became quiet, Edgar Austin began to think about this problem again.
He wanted to find the answer, but he didn't have any clue.
"Edgar, are you at home?" A woman's voice came from downstairs.
Edgar Austin's thoughts were suddenly brought back to reality. He responded and then came to the balcony.
Downstairs, a young policewoman was looking up at him, with a pretty face, a good figure, and a wonderful view, which was really moving. This woman's name is Elaine, a civilian policewoman who lives downstairs. She is a neighbor and she grew up playing hide-and-seek in the mud together, so we have always had a good relationship.
"It's Elaine. What do you want from me?"Edgar Austin greeted with a smile.
"Can you help me change the bucket? My hand is injured and I can't hold it,"Elaine said.
"Okay, I'll be down right away."Edgar Austin left the balcony.
After going downstairs, a ray of sunlight suddenly shone into Edgar Austin's left eye, and it felt like a needle pricking it. Under the stinging pain, my left eye also went dark and I couldn't see anything. Edgar Austin suddenly became nervous, but before he could make any move, his left eye suddenly regained its brightness.
At this moment, Elaine, who was standing not far away, was suddenly "pulled closer" by his left eye. The clothes on her body seemed to be transparent gauze. In the blink of an eye, even that "transparent veil" disappeared, and she stood completely in his sight.
Edgar Austin, who had never seen such a scene before, was stunned for a moment, and the little fire in his heart started to sizzle.
Edgar Austin suddenly remembered that he saw the temptation in the nurse's skirt in the hospital. That was not a hallucination, it was real! It was just a sign at the time, but now it’s even stronger!
"What, what's going on? Elaine is obviously wearing clothes, but in my left eye she has no clothes on her body. Is it because of the arc light? It must be!"Edgar Austin was surprised in his heart. extremely.
His left eye was burned by an arc light, and the doctor concluded that he would go blind in his left eye. But instead of going blind, his left eye gained this miraculous ability. Now it seems that blessings and disasters depend on each other. Yesterday, he was burned by arc light. It seemed like a disaster, but it was actually a blessing!
"Edgar, are you okay?"Elaine felt that Edgar Austin was strange today, especially the way he looked at her.
"Huh? I'm fine."Edgar Austin looked very nervous. As soon as he became nervous, the undressed Elaine disappeared from his left eye.
"Edgar, why do you look so distracted today?"Elaine joked: "Tell me, are you dating someone?"
Edgar Austin smiled and said, "You are a month younger than me. When did you become a sister? Besides, I am so poor, is that woman willing to follow me?"
Elaine said: "Don't belittle yourself. You are a good person. There must be a woman who likes you."
After talking and laughing, Edgar Austin relaxed and moved his eyes inadvertently. As a result, Elaine's clothes were instantly penetrated by his sight. This time, at a closer distance, he almost spit out nosebleeds. Although he didn't have a nosebleed, he felt like he had internal congestion.
After two consecutive clairvoyances, Edgar Austin finally figured out a pattern, that is, desire is the "switch" that turns on the left eye's ability. As long as he has the desire to see through a certain target, his left eye will activate the ability to see through.
After entering Elaine's home, Edgar Austin helped her change the bucket on the water dispenser. It was strange that after he carried the bucket to the water dispenser, his head felt groggy, and his body seemed to have been drained of energy, limp and lacking strength.
Edgar Austin secretly said in his heart: "I suddenly feel tired and sleepy, as if I haven't eaten or slept for two days. Is this related to my ability to use clairvoyance? It seems that this ability cannot be used casually. I have to exercise restraint." .”
"Edgar, let me buy you a drink."Elaine came over and handed a can of Pepsi to Edgar Austin.
Edgar Austin looked back at her, and a strange scene happened. What he saw was Elaine wearing a red bikini. She was smiling slightly, her eyes were moving, her expression was charming and charming, and she was extremely emotional.
"You..."Edgar Austin was stunned.
"What are you doing? Take it, Coke."Elaine handed the Coke in his hand to Edgar Austin.
Edgar Austin's eyes fell on Elaine's hand again, and he took a step back, with a horrified expression on his face - what he saw was not a can of Coke, but a small square tablet in a colorful package.
A bikini with extremely little fabric and small square pieces in colorful packaging. This is obviously not real, but in Edgar Austin's eyes at this moment, it is something extremely real. And not only did he see such an illusion, but an image appeared in his mind that he couldn't tell whether it was real or illusory. In this image, Elaine tore open the colorful packaging and gently... …
"Edgar, what's wrong with you? Is there any problem?"Elaine asked curiously.
Elaine's voice woke up Edgar Austin. He shook his head vigorously, and then the illusion in front of him disappeared. But then his feet weakened again, and then he stumbled and fell into Elaine's arms.
Elaine whole body was soft and fragrant, as if she were a sea that could accommodate everything.
What was even worse was that when he fell into his arms, Edgar Austin's lips were still pressed against Elaine's cheek. White, tender and fragrant, it feels like a vanilla cream cake.
Elaine was extremely nervous, and her face suddenly turned red. She subconsciously stepped back, but Edgar Austin's body leaned forward with her, and the two of them inevitably got closer!
"Edgar, what are you doing?"Elaine was annoyed and panicked, and her legs were a little weak.
Edgar Austin hurriedly stood up from Elaine's arms, his face flushed, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I tripped."
"You did it on purpose, right? Edgar, didn't you?"Elaine glared at Edgar Austin, her eyes full of coquettishness and annoyance.
Edgar Austin hurriedly stepped away and said awkwardly: "No, no, that... I didn't mean it, I'm sorry."
He actually knew very well in his heart that using clairvoyance would consume a lot of mental energy, which was why he had the weird hallucination just now.
"Edgar, you are so weird today."Elaine was not satisfied with Edgar Austin's explanation.
"Elaine, if nothing happens, I'll go back. Well, just call me if you want to change the bucket next time."Edgar Austin didn't dare to stay long and turned around to leave.
"Thank you, Edgar."Elaine saw Edgar Austin out.
Edgar Austin said with a smile: "Go back, there is no need to send me off, you have been friends with me for more than 20 years, why are you so polite?"
A smile appeared on Elaine's lips, "Can't I pretend to be polite to you? Also, I've wanted to persuade you for a long time. Find a serious job instead of working on a construction site. It won't last long. matter."
Edgar Austin nodded with a wry smile, turned and left.
Who doesn’t want to live a better life? Live in a big and comfortable house, drive a nice car, look decent wherever you go, be respected by others, and not look down upon. These are all inseparable from money, and what Edgar Austin lacks most is money.
"Anderson Chambers paid 10,000 yuan for medicine. I was discharged from the hospital early and was left with 9,000 yuan. This money is enough to pay for my sister's tuition. But when she goes to Kyoto to study, she has to pay for accommodation and living expenses, and the expenses are even more. Big, so I have to prepare 20,000 yuan for her. There is still 10,000 yuan left, what should I do?"Edgar Austin's head hurt when he thought about money.
Unknowingly, Edgar Austin walked out of the community.
The sun was shining on him, and the streets of Haizhu City were filled with cars and strangers passing by. It was a hurried scene.
"By the way, now that I have the ability to see things through, do I still need to work on a construction site? Why don't I use my ability to make money? My sister and I will definitely live a better life!" Thinking of this, Edgar Austin couldn't help but look up. Glancing in the direction of Macau, south of Haizhu City, he already had a very bold plan in mind.
