You decide that if you're going to lose Jasmine anyway, you might as well at least get a meal out of it. You say, "Let me hypnotize you once more, and then I will help you find your way home."
Jasmine eagerly complies, and you start the hypnotic rings in your eyes. Soon, she is hypnotized. You look your slave over carefully, and decide that her earrings look indigestible, while her socks look disgusting. Her other extra skins can stay, however.
You say, "Jasmine, remove your earrings and socks."
"Yes, Master." Jasmine removes the offending articles of clothing and neatly places them on top of her other clothing.
"Now just relax, and don't fight me at all." You lift Jasmine in your coils, then carefully slide her down your throat. She doesn't squirm at all, but accepts being eaten by her master.
You conclude that Jasmine was a delicious and satisfying meal. You worry that you'll be unable to digest the clothing that she wore to the end, but that doesn't seem to be a problem. You'd like to get another human to be your slave, but failing that, a meal would be good, too--at least, once you're hungry again.
Life returns to normal until several days later, when you see some soldiers approach your tree. The soldiers clearly look Indian and are wearing some uniform, though not that of the Indian Army. They talk to each other in Hindi, and then one gets excited and points toward the base of your tree. The four soldiers all rush over to see something. You look down and see that they have found Jasmine's clothing.
One begins talking on a phone, in English. "Hello, Mr. Johnson? I think we've found something. I'll send you a picture."
After a pause, he says, "We haven't touched it. That's exactly how it was when we found it moments ago." After another pause, "Yes, folded like that. Certainly, we'll unfold it and see what is there."
The soldiers pick up the clothing and take pictures of it from several angles.
The one holding the phone then says, "So you say that is Jasmine's clothing? And yes, sir, I understand that the necklace is very distinctive." After another pause, "No sir, we didn't see any undergarments." Another pause, and then, "No, I don't see any evidence of a struggle."
Another soldier says, "Maybe that hypnotic snake that the villagers warned us about got her."
You can't make out the voice on the other end of the phone, but it sounds angry. The soldier holding the phone says, "No sir, I think the hypnotic snake theory sounds ridiculous, too." After another pause, he adds, "Kidnapping for ransom? Maybe, but why would kidnappers leave her jewelry behind? Have you gotten a ransom demand?"
There is a lengthy pause, and then the soldier says, "Yes sir, we'll search the area. We'll bring the clothing to you for any purpose that you want, as well as anything else that we find."
As you watch the scene unfold, you think about how much you'd like to hypnotize these four soldiers. Still, they have guns, which makes you somewhat scared. How do you proceed?
