'' The Diamond Lens'' Part 2

.............Madame Vulpes was an ugly woman with sharp, cruel eyes. She didn't say a word to me when she opened the door, but took me right into her living room. We sat down at a large round table, and she spoke '' what do you want from me?'''' i want to spoke with a person who died many year before i was born''.'' Put your hand in the table''We sat there for several minites. The room grew darker and darker. But Madame Vulpes did not turn on any lights. I began to feel a little shy. Then i felt a series of violent knocks. They shook the table, the back of my chair, the floor under my feet and even the windows. Madame Vulpes smiled '' They are very strong tonight . You are very lucky . They want you to write down the spirit you wish to talk to''i tore a piece of paper out of my note book and wrote down a name. I din not show it to Madame VulpesAfter a moment, Madame Vulpes' hand began to shake so hard the table move. She said the spirit was now holding her hand and would write me a message.i gave her paper and specil. She wrote something and gave the paper to me. The message read: '' I am het. Question me.'' I was signed '' Leeuwenhoek''I couldn't believe my eyes. The name was the same one I had written on my piece of paper. I was sure that an ignorant woman like Madame Vulpes would not know who Leewenhoek was. Why would she know the name of the man who invented the microscope?Quickly, i wrote a question on another piece of paper.'' How can i create a perfect lens?'' Leenwehoek wrote back:'' Fine a diamond of 140 carats. Give it a strong electrical charge. The electricity will change the diamond's atoms. From that stone you can form the perfect lens.''i left Madame Vulpes house in a state of painful excitement . Where would i find a diamond that large? All my family money could not buy a diamond like that. And evev if i had enough money , I know that such diamonds are very difficult to find.When I came home, I saw a light in Simond's window. I climbed the stairs to his apartment and went in without knocking. Simon's back was toward me as he bent over a lamp. He looked as if he went carefully studying a small object in his hands. As soon as he heard me enter, he put the object in his pocket . His face became red, and he seem very nervous.'' What are you looking at?'' I asked. Simon didn't answer me . Instead , he laughed nervously and told me to sit down. I counldn't wait to tell him my news.'' Simon, I have just come from Madame Vulpes. She gave me some important information that will help me find a ferfect len . If only i could find a diamond that weights 140 carats!''MY words seemed to change Simon into a wild animal. He rushed to a small table and grabbed long, thin knife'' No!'' he shouted.'' you won't ge my treasure! i'll die before i give it ti you!'''' My dear Simon'' I said , I don't know what you are talking about. I went to MV to ask her help me with a scientific problem.She told me i needed an enormous diamond. YOu could not possible own a diamond that large. If you did , you would be very rich . And you wouldn't be living here''......................( next part will be type tomorrow, thanks for all reading^@^)
