would be taken to the new city, the City of the Angels. He would be rescued by a man who is no angel. - Who is that? - You, Mr Jarell Yeah, right. OK. I'm in the middle of a basketball game, although I'd love to stay and chat with you. - This looks like a big joint. - I'm serious, Mr Jarrell. Lick it and smoke it. I think there were two of these, and you smoked the other one. Put it in your bag and stop smoking scrolls. You know, it looks like a joint. And you might get jumped by some Rastafarians if you walk around with it, so put it away. Excuse me, I have a game to play. It was a nice thought. I realise it's hard for you to take in, but it's your destiny to find the Golden Child. And it's your destiny to seek some serious psychiatric help. Really. Excuse me. Can I go and play now? Please, go home? Excuse me. And such a cute girl, too. Dope fiend! - Is that her? - Yes, that's Cheryl Mosely. - How long has she been missing? - About three weeks. - What have you got? - Not much. Three days ago, the rental sign goes down and a truck backs up to the door. The neighbours hear a continuous, low murmur night and day. At ten last night, the truck pulls up again and the murmuring stops. A neighbour comes out to shut up his dog who won't come down the hill. He looks over the fence and finds the body. - Who rented the place? - She did. By phone, mailed in cash. - Did you take the referral I sent you? - No. - You only take the kid cases. - Yeah. Get a few more shots in here. Ms Tibet, you can come out now. Stop following me, I won't take your case. You're already on it. What makes you think the kid was in the house? This is a restraint curse. They must restrain him spiritually and physically. They need to keep evil on him on all four sides of him at all times. Just the writing isn't enough. They'd need something else. - Or what? - Or the child projects himself astrally. Give me a break. You're telling me that the people that killed Cheryl... If I find them, they're the same people that kidnapped the... ...the Golden Child. Exactly. Right. - But why would they kill Cheryl? - I don't know. - Why are they feeding the kid blood? - Are you sure? - I found a bowl of oatmeal... - Yes? ...with some blood on the bottom of it. It's probably hers. I don't know. There is somebody we could ask about the blood. This is LA, though. You're going to ask somebody about the blood? Are they in this world or do we have to project there? Some part of the galaxy... Mr Jarrell, you honour my shop with your presence. He's very pleased to meet a man as great as you. How do you say "Thank you"? We must speak to Kala. OK... Hey! Mr Jarrell. You may speak with her. She can hear you. Tell me about the Golden Child. Every thousand generations, a perfect child is born. A Golden Child. He has come to rescue us. - Rescue us from what? - From ourselves. He is the Bringer of Compassion. If he dies, compassion will die with him. If something happens to the kid, the whole world goes to hell? The world will become hell! It's not far from that now! Who would want to take the kid? Those who want evil rather than good. - Can you be more specific? - We do not know who took him. Could you tell me why they are trying to make him eat blood? Nothing in this world will hurt him. But if he were to pollute himself with anything impure, he would become vulnerable. OK. So if they... If he eats the blood, they can kill him. Yes. Do you have any other questions? As a matter of fact I do. What are you doing this weekend, because your silhouette is kicking! She plays the maraccas, too? - This is the Chosen One? - Yes... You people put on a good show. Where did you find her? She's the librarian at the Secret Repository at Palkor Sin. She was flown here to help us. She's over 300 years old. - How did she manage that one? - One of her ancestor ------------------------------ Читайте также: - текст Машенька на английском - текст Марс на английском - текст Потерянный рейс на английском - текст Неуловимые мстители на английском - текст Шинель на английском |
