Ergi's story (2)

"Okay, my cousin has gone to bed. Wait, I'll run for my cigarettes, today I bought a new package at the hotel. I'll be right back.”

Ergi and Eva had a conversation for a while, smoking two cigarettes each, and then returning to their cabins. When no one was around Ergi's cabin, Ergi decided to take action. He walked over to his car and parked it close cottages. He quickly carried Bust inside and locked her. He drove the car back to the parking lot. It was night and he was quite tired after a hard and incredible day. As he sat on the bed, he put everything back together in his head. The course of the whole day. Pirnag Hill, golden bust of pharaoh ... What does such a thing do in Slovakia in the forest? How could it get here? Is it even possible? So far, he has only seen such things in books or on television. And at the moment he is the owner of a pharaoh in gold. What will he do with him at all? Such a thing cannot even be sold. After much thought, he finally realized that he would sooner or later have to pass the find on to a museum. All that remains to be seen. But he will keep her at home for a while. For now, he is the sole owner of this finding. Ergi fell asleep. The bust, wrapped in a car cover, stood motionless in a corner. There was complete silence in the cottage.

Day four

Ergi was awakened by a knock on the door. He jumped out of bed and opened them. He narrowed his eyes at the sunshine from the sleepy look and noticed Eva.

"Hello, don't sleep anymore and come to the water with us. We're going to rent a pedal bike, and then we'll just lie on the beach.”

Ergi nodded wearily, promising Eve that he could get together right away and come to the water. He looked around the cottage, everything was fine, the bust was in place. He quickly pulled on his swimsuit and cleaned the bed. In any case, he closed the shutter on the cottage. Then he went to the water, where there were already many people. He also found Eva and her cousin, and then they went to the water bikes together. They put on one of them, put on their life jackets, and began to pedal. The day of relaxation began. In the afternoon, everyone just lay on the blankets and looked at the water. One must be able to relax in one's life. The sun was shining all day, and there were a lot of people on the beach by the water who were indulging in fun and relaxation. But Ergi still felt strange because the bust was closed in the hut itself. What if someone breaks in and steals it? Or will someone accuse him of stealing such a thing? That really wouldn't be the best the bust could bring him. But despite that Eve and her cousin spent all the time with unpleasant feelings and thoughts. He was carried away by the summer atmosphere and everything that goes with it. The evening has come. Ergi hid in his hut and, out of boredom, took a rag, began cleaning and polishing the pharaoh's bust, and thought: So much gold ... if he could sell it, he would certainly make a lot of money. But who would buy it. Backup ?! Goldsmithing ?! Such things are not sold. They end up in museums ... It must have been the master who could make such a thing. Those perfect and symmetrical details. Unbelievable. It looks more like a gold mold cast. Nobody knows who and how he did it in those days. Outside the door, he heard a commotion. Neighbors went out for the evening session. Ergi was no longer attracted outside. It was the last night he had spent there. He leaves home the next morning. Maybe he'll still say goodbye to Eva, have a cigarette and jump into his Satt. Then he will have to get the bust discreetly into his apartment. This will probably be the hardest phase of this whole adventure. As he finished even the smallest details on the bust, he inadvertently tripped over the protruding snake at the head of the bust with a rag. Something clicked. He ignored it and tossed the rag into his bag. He had no intention of leaving even the slightest trace behind. He must be professional. Not like an amateur. Then he lay down on the bed and stared at the bust. He didn't want to go out, so he fell asleep after a while. There was silence in the cottage. Ergi realized he had woken up. He lay on his stomach for a moment, wondering why he was up. He fell strange a feeling of insecurity and fear at the same time. It was dark in the cottage, only a beam of moonlight fell through the windows. As Ergi turned slowly on his back, he noticed something hanging in the air in the middle of the room. He was startled and lay motionless. What the hell is that ?! He sharpened his eyes and looked for a bust on the ground. Well, she was nowhere. The bust still wrapped in cover just hung in the air. Between two beds in the middle of the cottage. Ergi froze and sat down slowly on the bed. The bust hung opposite him. What does this scene mean? He looked at his digital watch. It was exactly half past two in the morning. He reached out and touched the bust. He slowly pulled the cover off her. The bust didn't move, but her eyes shone. They glowed a light blue color. Ergi was startled and stood up. He leaned against the window behind him. He noticed that, in contrast to the wall, there were some scenes that the bust projected with his light blue eyes. Suddenly a voice came from her mouth. She spoke something in an unknown language. Some numbers and plans were projected on the wall, and in the lower part, some characters and figures were displayed in one piece. Perhaps the Egyptian script ... hieroglyphs? Ergi was no expert on Egyptian coincidence. Didn't know what he was dealing with and what it all meant? Paintings from ancient Egypt ran on the wall inside the cottage. Something like news. People were seen speaking in unfamiliar language, then various meetings at the stone buildings, with the headlines still announcing something. Suddenly, a woman with a gold headdress on her head appeared in the picture and talked about something for about five minutes. If only Ergi could translate what she was talking about. Well, there was no chance. Then pictures of the great river appeared. A wooden boat was moored at its shore, and a fisherman was saying something. Probably it will be the river Nile? The pyramids were sometimes seen. Then again, the megalomaniac statues of the gods and the captions still explained something.

The end of Ergi's vacation.

It was already 5 o'clock in the morning and Ergi wondered what he had found, what it was. It occurred to him that he had been looking at some historical paintings from ancient Egypt all along. Maybe documentary shots. What if the bust is actually a medium? Something like television or the internet ... Who knows. He remembered accidentally tripping over a snake on her forehead in the evening. He walked over to the bust and touched the snake. There was a click. In the cottage on the wall, various images were no longer displayed and large patterns - hieroglyphs - appeared. As if the end of the program. The eyes stopped broadcasting. The bust just hung motionless in the air, and Ergi tried to pull her down, but he couldn't. So he left it and lay down because he was tired. He soon fell asleep. It was 8 o'clock when he woke up. The bust lay on the ground in the middle of the room. It glowed golden in the sun's rays, which fell inside through the window. Ergi jumped out of bed, took the cover, and wrapped the whole bust again. He made the bed and went upstairs in front of the cabin to get a cigarette. No one was seen anywhere in the morning. So he ran right after his cigarette into the parking lot after his car and parked it again near the cottage. He ran to the bottom, picked up a bust from the ground, and quickly tried to load it into the trunk of the car. He won't wait until Eva appears at the cottage, but she goes to hand over the keys to the administrator and immediately starts in Humenné City. He has a much more important job than saying goodbye to someone. At exactly nine o'clock in the morning, he set off home from the lake. He did not speed up during the trip so that he would not be stopped by the police. It would be hard to justify where he got a historical find with so much gold in his car. In front of his apartment, still sitting in the car, he watched the situation so that he could move the bust unobtrusively up to his apartment. People were walking here and there on the sidewalk, and someone appeared in the apartment window next to him. He lives on the third floor, so he has to use an elevator, because with such a burden, it would be difficult to go up the stairs. He sat in the car for a while longer, and when he saw that the street was empty, he quickly removed a bust from the trunk of the car and hurried to the entrance. He called the elevator and drove to the third floor. He entered the apartment and closed it behind him as quickly as possible. Everything went well, he didn't meet anyone. He placed Bust on the floor in the middle of the living room. Then he got back in the car after the other things. Once he settled in at home, he made a quick lunch and then turned on his old laptop. He searched everything about Egypt and busts. He learned many things: The Egyptian Empire was founded 3,000 years ago. l. It lay along the river Nile ... Busts are the death masks of the pharaohs ... But nowhere did he read that the busts could project or broadcast messages. But the bust he found was not only a death mask, but also a communication medium. It's a shocking. He had never heard of it before. And how is it even possible that he found her in Slovakia on Pirnagov Hill ?! Ergi knelt beside the bust, looked at her more closely for a moment, and pulled on the snake on her forehead. There was a click. But nothing further happened. The bust lay motionless on the ground. He pulled again. Nothing. And again ... After half an hour he gave up and left her like that. Probably something went wrong. He would be very reluctant to do so, as he already understood that the bust is a medium. He wanted to know everything about her - what he could do, how it could be used. When he gave up his worries about turning on the bust, he started cleaning the apartment. Later, he went out to go to the city park to clean it up in his head and prepare a plan of what he would actually do with the bust. However, he was worried that it must have stopped working. That's bad, he thought. He could record everything a bust shows or broadcasts. It is incomprehensible to what source or network this thing is actually connected. That they had something like the internet in ancient Egypt ?! Is it possible that this found bust reconnects to an Egyptian network that is about 5,000 years old ?! That's crazy. Totally crazy. The day passed quickly. In the evening, Ergi read from the Internet that the nearest Egyptian museum is in Berlin, Germany. But Ergi does not know German, so he has no idea how he can connect with competent people. One of his former classmates speaks perfect German, having worked in Germany for more than ten years. Ergi lay down on the couch in the living room, trying to remember everything the bust had shown him the night before. Fell asleep. Soon he read again. He heard some voices and sounds above him. He raised his head and looked over the couch. The bust hung in the air, various voices emanating from it, and her eyes projected back to the wall. This time it was clearer and more beautiful, because it projected on a white brick wall and not on a wooden one like the night before in the cottage. Ergi sat up and stared at the wall. An Egyptian was explaining something about a large stone structure. And now it has occurred to Ergi! All this must be recorded! Write, can be drawn and even filmed !!! This is information 5,000 years ago! That is the meaning of the whole thing, knowledge and evidence! Now Ergi understood what he had found. A groundbreaking thing. The information that this golden bust offers has incalculable value. The gold from which it is made, on the other hand, is a negligible asset. That's the material! That's the material! Ergi spoke to himself and ran around the apartment. He realized what had gotten into his hands. When he recovered and calmed down a bit, he planned the whole thing. He has an even older type of camcorder at home. He could use it to film recordings broadcast from a bust on the wall. He selected a new notebook from the table where he could write notes. With a digital camera, evidence of buildings in ancient Egypt will be photographed right here and there.

Next month – September.

Every night, Ergi woke up at half past two in the morning that a bust hung in the middle of his living room, transmitting through bright blue eyes directly to the wall. Voices came from her mouth in ancient Egyptian language. Ergi documented everything, copied characters, photographed and filmed. He recorded a lot of information about the buildings. Mainly about pyramids. According to what he recorded, the pyramids were built by the Egyptians with the help of beings from space in one night. The stones were lifted and placed in the desired position all by themselves. Several Egyptians stood at a safe distance from the building, staring at the building, which was run by an alien visitor with a gold cap on his head. He looked like a human, but he was not a human. The Sphinxes were built in the same way. Megalomaniacal buildings in this country were never built by humans. They were built by space visitors who were living with the Egyptians at the time. The bust spewed information at a dizzying speed. Numbers, characters, hieroglyphs ... Ergi recorded everything as fast as he could. His life regime was completely disrupted. He worked honestly at night and slept during the day. The bust always woke him at half past two in the morning. One night, she reported on a serious illness during which the Egyptians were extinct. The bust projected images of dead people between houses and in their homes. Some have been seen to be embalmed, probably because of their significance and importance. That month, the bust provided Ergi with a lot of information. He wrote a total of five rough notebooks, filmed more than two hundred hours of recording and took almost a thousand two hundred photographs. In early October, Ergi realized that he had slept all night. The next night, the bust did not wake him up either. Then he set the alarm for half past two in the morning to see if the bust was transmitting. When he woke up that night to the alarm clock, the bust lay motionless on the ground. He tried to pull the snake on his forehead, but nothing happened. He tried again and also nothing. This was followed by a few more nights until Ergi realized it was over. The bust is out of energy. The resource has been emptied. Now it is really just a golden bust of the pharaoh. But Ergi acquired material that was groundbreaking for the world. Everything he recorded has a higher value than you could ever imagine in your imagination. It's unbelievable. But it is like that. He has records of the construction of the pyramids, the various large structures in Egypt, the diseases in which the Egyptians became extinct, the extraterrestrial activity, and the friendship between the cosmic and the Egyptians. Since the bust is only a piece of gold, Ergi decided that it was not worth keeping it at home. It cannot be monetized like ordinary gold, which one shows off.

Resolving the situation.

Ergi met his high school classmate. Eugen knew German perfectly, so Ergi asked him to contact the museum in Berlin. He promised Eugen a financial reward for this service. Eugen arranged everything he needed in two days. They wrote from Berlin by e-mail that they were interested in the bust and would pay Ergi a nice few thousand euros as a find. In the end, the bust still brought good luck to Ergi. He had a decent living for at least the following year, even without work. He will have the opportunity and time to get back on his feet. Maybe he will try again to look for a treasure and he will go much further, such as Pirnag Hill. In mid-October, they sent a white van from the Berlin Museum, which came to pick up the bust and at the same time conclude an agreement with Ergi committing to pay the relevant more than 20,000 euros. That will really please a person. A courier who arrived in front of Ergi's apartment building had him sign a lot of papers, and two days after he left, the promised money came into account. Despite this success, Ergi had no idea what he would do with the materials he received from the bust. He believed that they certainly had astronomical value, and their study would bring a breakthrough in the scientific and research worlds. He stored all the materials at home. He put them in a box and set them down to the lower shelf in the cabinet. He didn't tell anyone about it, no one knew what Ergi was hiding at home. No one would even believe what he witnessed when the bust transmitted the information she projected to the wall with her eyes. If Ergi told anyone about it, he would consider him a fool. Surely no one will believe him. If the bust of energy is depleted, no one will take it to life. We do not know the principle of the resources used by the extraterrestrial beings who helped build Egypt in ancient times. Unfortunately, although they inadvertently infected many people with their illnesses, a quarter of whom died suddenly. Materials from ancient times hidden in Ergi's case are not only worth the price of gold, but also of life. Ergi had already realized this, and every time he thought about it, he was overwhelmed with heat. At the end of October 2017, thieves broke into Ergi's apartment. The apartment door was not damaged in any way. Someone with special wrenches or tools got to the bottom. Apparently they were experienced specialists. During the police file and the investigation, Ergi sat on his couch, looking out the window. He realized what had happened and what an absurd situation he was in. It was incomprehensible to the investigators that nothing had disappeared from the apartment at all. They even left the money on the table like that. That was really weird. Ergi knew very well that he could not tell the investigators about the box in the closet. They wouldn't believe him anyway. It would be useless. They stole the whole box with all the groundbreaking materials important to the whole world. It is not known whether for profit or not on the contrary, so that the whole thing does not come to light. There are many alternatives as well as police issues. The police were called by a neighbor who lives in the same corridor as Ergi. She allegedly saw two people enter the apartment in caps that had been pulled down to their faces. Apparently they were younger men around the age of 24. They were said to have been in the apartment for a very short time, and after a short while they ran out of the apartment with a box in their hand. At the end of the investigation, a police investigator joined Ergi and asked him a few questions: “So what does this all mean? What were those people looking for in your apartment? And what was in the box that the neighbor allegedly saw in their hands? Were they some valuable things?”

Ergi settled worriedly and replied, “It was just family photos, nothing more. I can't explain why they took them. They had almost no value to me.”

The investigator handed Ergi the minutes.

"If you believe the thieves have not really taken anything valuable from you, please sign this form to complete the investigation. The case will be closed and we will leave.”

Ergi picked up a pen, looked at the investigator in disgust, and signed the paper.
