The car drove back to their home in Washington. As soon as the two entered the house, Diana couldn't wait to ask about the 'citrine'.

Of course, ‘Huang Shaohong’ couldn’t say that he only knew about such a thing after watching the movie. He could only say that he seemed to have seen relevant records in some ancient book about Greek mythology.

'Diana' looked worriedly at the 'citrine' that 'Huang Shaohong' was playing with. Although she had been undressed by her husband on the way, she still felt palpitating when facing it now.

She expressed her worries again, and there was an indescribable solemnity and sadness in her eyes. That kind of uneasiness made the goddess unable to calm down.

‘Huang Shaohong’ knew this very well and knew that this was because of the causal relationship between ‘Diana’ and the crystal.

When he took the citrine from Ms. Barbara's hand today, he felt the woman's inhuman power. It was obvious that the woman had made a wish by mistake while holding the crystal.

And eighty percent of the plot is the same as the original one. The girl’s wish is to be ‘like Diana’!

The wishing crystal fulfilled this girl's wish, so this ordinary lady 'Barbara', who did not stand out in the crowd, was not noticed by people, and had mediocre qualifications, got the same wish as 'Diana' the next day.

His temperament, aura, charm, and even powerful demigod abilities!

‘Huang Shaohong’ believed that this was why ‘Barbara’ had such a big reaction when he asked to take a look at this ‘citrine’.

Because 'Barbara' also knew her own changes and understood the power of the gem, she was afraid that others would discover it and that she would lose these abilities that were not hers, so she resisted letting others see the gem.

Seeing that 'Diana' was so worried, 'Huang Shaohong' thought for a while and chose to tell the truth:

"Diana, I think I know the reason for your uneasiness, because 'Barbara' has already used the ability of this wishing gem. I guess her wish should be related to you, so it forms a cause and effect. This

That’s why your extraordinary soul feels uneasy!”

'Diana' looked at her husband in surprise, with a puzzled look on her face.

‘Huang Shaohong’ pointed to the line of ancient Latin carved on the base of the ‘citrine’ and asked:

"What does this mean?"

‘Diana’ pointed at the line of writing with her finger and chanted: “Hold this thing and make a great wish!”

'Huang Shaohong' put the 'citrine' on the coffee table, and then said with a smile: "Think about it carefully, did you translate this to 'Barbara'?"

'Diana' immediately thought about it deeply, and suddenly she said: "When this gem first arrived at the museum, it gave me a bad feeling. It was Barbara's first day at work that day. When I chatted with her,

I casually translated this Latin sentence, when Bohr..."

Halfway through, 'Diana' realized that 'Huang Shaohong' didn't know her colleague, and explained: "Boll is my colleague in the museum who is responsible for inspecting some things. He is a fat guy..."

"Boll heard my translation from behind us, then reached out and pressed it on the gem, jokingly saying he wanted a cup of coffee..."

‘Huang Shaohong’ is a qualified listener and asked at the right time: “What happens next?”

A look of surprise appeared on 'Diana''s face: "Then he really got a cup of coffee. It was other colleagues who happened to buy too much coffee, and then they gave it to him..."

She suddenly understood: "You mean, 'Barbara' really made a wish because of this, and that wish is also related to me?"

"good!"

'Huang Shaohong' snapped his fingers. Of course, he didn't wear the Infinity Glove this time, which meant that his wife had 'got the right answer'.

This guy continued to organize the language and started making up:

"When I first saw Barbara, I felt something familiar about her. I didn't notice it at the time, but when I took the crystal from her hand, I felt it.

The power coming from your hand is exactly the same as your divine power!"

‘Diana’’s eyes widened: “You mean she made a wish and gained the same power as me?”

‘Huang Shaohong’ smiled and shook his head:

"No, it's not just strength, it's also aura, temperament, and charm. Think about it, does she make you feel much different now than when you first met her?"

‘Diana’ recalled the first time she met ‘Barbara’, and then nodded:

"Indeed, she was introverted and not good at communicating with others at that time, but since yesterday, she has become full of confidence, which is very different from before!"

‘Huang Shaohong’ nodded:

"I guess 'Barbara' must have suffered a lot because of her introverted personality and lack of sociability. When she went to your museum and saw you who were so radiant and popular with others, she naturally felt envious.

!”

"Then she heard you translate the ancient Latin on this crystal. She probably made the wish with the attitude of giving it a try. Unexpectedly, it came true the next day. Not only did she gain your charm, she also gained you.

The power of demigods!”

‘Diana’ said extremely shocked:

"How is this possible? The Duke of Deception is not the main god. You also said that his power may not be as powerful as a demigod like me. How could the artifact he made have the ability to make people become demigods?"

‘Huang Shaohong’ picked up the ‘Topaz’ and looked at it carefully, and gave his own guess:

"I think there is only one explanation that can explain this problem, and that is the law... There are many examples of deceiving the Duke and possibly mastering the ability to use a law unintentionally...

."

‘Huang Shaohong’ immediately told the story of ‘Johnny Blaze’ making a deal with the devil.

This kind of thing is not uncommon. There are many similar legends in the West, about regaining something of your own and gaining money, rights, or power!

'Diana' understood instantly: "You are saying that this crystal is just like those transactions. It can be traded through rules, realize wishes, and lose something..."

"That's it!"

‘Maxwell Lord’ was a liar. He bought a piece of land in a random place, lied that there was oil there, and then advertised heavily to attract the public to buy shares. In fact, it was illegal financing for later generations.

A year and a half ago, he accidentally heard the legend about the 'Wishing Stone' from an antique dealer. This aroused his strong interest and therefore he did a lot of research.

He discovered that this 'wishing gem' probably really existed, and had caused several major disasters in history, such as the decline of the Mayan civilization.

Originally, Maxwell Lord just investigated this matter as a matter of interest. He felt mysterious in his heart, but he didn't really believe it.

But half a year ago, his career hit a low point. In order to make a fortune, he fabricated black gold lies to deceive the public. As time goes by, he is about to be exposed. Now he is facing bankruptcy and will owe a large amount of debt that cannot be repaid.

Will be sent to jail for fraud.

So this deceiver, who was full of lies, thought of the ‘wishing stone’ when he was desperate, and like grabbing a life-saving straw, he placed his hope of turning around on that ‘wishing stone’.

He hired a private detective and after extensive investigations, he finally determined the whereabouts of the 'Wishing Stone'.

The piece of 'citrine' was collected as an antique and fell into the hands of an antique collector in Washington.

'Maxwell Lord' was overjoyed. He personally visited the collector and tried to buy the gem. However, the shrewd old man saw the eagerness and desire in his eyes during the conversation.

...

Although the collector does not know the true value of this 'citrine', since someone is eager to get it, its value is self-evident.

Because 'Maxwell Lord' is advertising on TV every day to deceive investors, his identity is not a secret. When this 'shrewd old man' faced this 'oil tycoon', he started to

The sky-high price of 10 million was paid.

After all, everyone in this era knows that oil companies are very rich. In this 'collector''s opinion, 'Rockefeller' spent $80,000 to build a tomb for his pet dog, not to mention that it was a piece of stone.

Antique crystal.

Why don't you take out 10 million and have the nerve to say that you are an oil tycoon?

But he didn't know that the 'oil tycoon' like 'Maxwell Lord' actually had to be put in quotation marks. In fact, he was just a liar with a lot of gold and a lot of bad stuff. How could he come up with a liar?

That's tens of millions of dollars.

‘Maxwell Lord’ took out his last over one million US dollars, but was directly rejected by the greedy collector, who doubled the price again, asking for 20 million US dollars!

‘Maxwell Lord’ finally gave up the normal way of purchasing. As a liar, he felt that it was illegal to deceive people anyway, and he would go to jail for theft. Since they were all illegal, this crime was not less important.

So he sneaked into the antique collector's house one night with the intention of stealing. Unexpectedly, the old man got up at night and screamed, and he, a first-time thief, was discovered.

When the old man saw someone else sneaking into the house, he immediately went to get the shotgun hanging on the wall. Upon seeing this, 'Maxwell Lord' pushed the old man onto the sofa, then turned around and ran away.

After a few days, he, who had been worried about being caught, found that there was no movement, so he thought that he had disguised himself well and his true identity had not been discovered, so he wanted to visit again to see if he could convince the stubborn old man.

As a result, after he went there, he discovered that the old collector had been castrated that night and was found dead on the sofa in the living room. The police gave the cause of death as a heart attack.

'Maxwell Lord' couldn't help but sigh with relief after hearing this, and then he contacted the old man's descendants and wanted to buy the 'citrine' from him.

As a result, I was told that it had been packaged and sold to a jewelry store owned by Bruce Enterprises.

'Maxwell Lord', who was already desperate, decided to contact a few robbers from New York through an intermediary, and told them the location of the jewelry store.

He also stated that as long as he robbed the antiques in the jewelry store's warehouse, he would only take one piece, and the rest would belong to the robbers themselves, and he would pay a reward of two hundred thousand dollars for this.

In the United States in the 1980s, robbers would rob a cash transport truck for $100,000. For $200,000, they would rob a warehouse located in a jewelry store in a shopping mall. The risk was much less than robbing a cash transport truck.

Yes, they naturally agreed happily.

Everything was going smoothly. The robbers successfully robbed the jewelry store and obtained the antiques. Unexpectedly, the sudden appearance of "Wonder Woman" disrupted the situation.

Of course, if they knew that this jewelry store belonged to 'Bruce Enterprises' and was the property of 'Diana', they wouldn't be surprised. This heroine has often fought against other people's families, let alone her family.

.

So after 'Diana' dealt with these robbers, they were taken away by the FBI, and the 'citrine' as an exhibit had to be sent to a specialized agency for value determination so that it could be used by the court.
To be continued...
