Shui Miao #133: Make a magic trick
Magician Shui Miao stood in front of a table wearing revealing clothing. One of her hands was on the table and the other was in the air. Her eyes were shining and her lips were slightly parted as if she were chanting a spell. Suddenly, she yelled "Allahua kabala kabalaa" and everything on the table disappeared. Shui Miao smiled proudly, bowed to the audience, then turned and walked off the stage.
The audience was shocked, they didn't know how Shui Miao did it. They talked a lot, guessing what kind of deception Shui Miao used. But no one can give a reasonable explanation. Shui Miao's magic show was very successful and she won rounds of applause from the audience.
Shui Miao walked off the stage and came to the backstage. She took off her makeup and put on casual clothes. She walked out of the theater and into a parked car. The driver of the car was a man. He was wearing a hat and his face could not be seen clearly.
The man started the car and drove away from the theater. They drove for a long time and finally came to an abandoned factory. The man parked the car and got out. He opened the factory door and Shui Miao followed him in.
The factory was dark, with only a lone light bulb on. The man walked to the light bulb and stopped. He turned around and faced Shui Miao.
"You're finally here," the man said. "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Shui Miao didn't speak, she just looked at him.
"I know who you are," the man said. "You are Shui Miao, you are the greatest magician in the world."
Shui Miao smiled. "Excellent," she said. "I'm just a fan of tricks."
"No," the man said. "You're not a sleight of hand. You're a real magician. You have real magic."
Shui Miao didn't speak, she just looked at him.
"I need your help," the man said. "I need you to do something for me."
"What's going on?" Shui Miao asked.
"I need you to help me find something," the man said. "Something very important."
"What?" Shui Miao asked.
"A key," the man said. "A key that can open any door."
Shui Miao smiled. "Are you kidding me?" she said. "There is no such key in the world."
"No," the man said. "There is such a key. And I know where it is."
"Where?" Shui Miao asked.
"In your heart," the man said.
Shui Miao was stunned. "What are you talking about?" she asked.
"I said the key is in your heart," the man said. "You have to find it and give it to me."
"Why?" Shui Miao asked.
"Because you're the only one who can find it," the man said. "You are the greatest magician in the world and only you can find it."
Shui Miao fell silent. She didn't know what to say.
"Will you help me?" the man asked.
Shui Miao nodded. "I do," she said.
"Very good," the man said. "Now, close your eyes and concentrate. Find the key and give it to me."
Shui Miao closed her eyes and concentrated her energy. She felt an energy flowing through her body, and she felt the key was inside her heart. She reached out and grabbed the key.
"I found it," she said.
"Very good," the man said. "Now, give it to me."
Shui Miao handed the key to the man. The man took the key, then turned and walked out of the factory. Shui Miao watched the man leave. She didn't know what she had done, but she knew she would never forget this moment.
