Hints:
Madame VulpesHearing about this woman gave me an idea. Perhaps she would be able to help me discover the secret of the perfect lens. Two days later, I went to her house.
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 speak to a person who died many years before I was born."
"Put your hands on the table."
We sat there for several minutes. The room grew darker and darker. But Madame Vulpes did not turn on any lights. I began to feel a little silly. 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 lucky. They want you to write down the name of the spirit you wish to talk to."
I tore a piece of paper out of my notebook and wrote down a name. I didn't show it to Madame Vulpes.听到这个女人，我有了一个想法。或许她可以帮我揭开完美镜头的秘密。两天后，我去了她家。
Madame Vulpes是一个丑陋的女人，长着一双尖锐残暴的眼睛。她开了门一句话都没说，直接把我请进屋。我们坐在一张大圆桌前，她说，
“你找我有什么事”
“我想和一个在我出生前就死了很久的人说话”
“把你的手放在桌上”
我们在这坐了一会儿，房子渐渐变得越来越暗，Madame Vulpes并没有开灯。我开始感觉到自己有点傻。然后，我感到一连串猛烈的敲击。它们晃动桌子，我的椅背，脚下的地板，甚至窗户。
Madame Vulpes笑了。
“它们今晚很强大。你很幸运。它们想让你把你要找的那个灵魂的名字写下来”
我从我的笔记本上撕了一页纸，写下了名字。但我没给Madame Vulpes看。
