Dominate the Treacherous Realm
Chapter 248:
There are many pedestrians, but it is not very difficult to walk through it. Jenkins turned his head to look at the shops on both sides as he walked, hoping to find his familiar fiery red hair as soon as possible.
"Speaking of which, this is the first time I have come to this street."
This is a lie. I passed by here when I slipped away after the last time I played against the benefactor of the Witch’s House on the banks of the Rhone.
"This is my first time here. After all, Nolan is one of the largest cities on the west coast of the mainland. Even if we grow up in this city, it is impossible to walk through every street."
She said, looking at the red-topped two-story building on the side. The top floor of the small building hung the signboard of the law firm, but due to the age, the letters on the signboard are no longer complete, and the remaining letters have been spelled into a very dirty vocabulary.
"I don't know what Ms. Hesa wants here..."
Chocolate stands quietly on Jenkins's shoulders. Even if judged by the standards of cats, its sense of balance is amazing. When passing by the glass window of the bookstore, the cat's silhouette is also reflected on the glass. It waved its paws at the cat in the glass, and the cat in the reflection also waved its paws.
Miss Mihaier was amused by this scene.
Neither of them realized that they were more like couples shopping together than they were looking for someone. Therefore, Hathaway was not found for the time being, but it was a good thing for the two of them.
Continue to walk forward, Jenkins' eyes moved away from the graffiti on the wall beside him, and then he saw a girl selling flowers in front of him. It can be regarded as deep winter now, and the price of fresh flowers is extremely expensive, so flower girls on the street are no longer as common as summer.
In fact, this was the first flower girl Jenkins saw after Fini Faithful gave up her career as a flower girl.
He stopped subconsciously, and saw Miss Mihail cast an inquiring look at the side, and kept telling himself in his heart:
"There is nothing to be afraid of, just a mortal, go forward!"
But the actual behavior was to panic looking next to him, and then as if he had found a life-saving straw, he suddenly pointed to the cloakroom on the left front and said:
"Sorry, Miss Mihail, it suddenly occurred to me that I wanted to buy a new hat. Look, there is a shop here, can you take some time?"
If another man made such a request on this occasion, Miss Mihail would definitely think he had ulterior motives. But she knew very well what kind of man Jenkins Williams was, so she smiled and nodded in agreement.
Yu Guang once again saw that the flower girl was coming here, Jenkins hurriedly stepped forward two steps, and then opened the door of the cloakroom in front of Miss Mihail to invite her in.
He didn't want to spend any more money on a hat, but it would be too suspicious to walk in and stroll around before going out. Pretending to be serious about shopping in the store, thinking that the flower girl should have gone too far, only then bought the cheapest black top hat.
This is a relatively high-end clothing store. The surface of the top hat is partially made of silk. The price of a hat is enough to make Jenkins feel a big loss.
He once again apologized to Miss Mihaier for wasting time. He asked for change from the store clerk, and took out two coppers from his pocket and put them on the counter as a tip.
Just about to open the door and go out, the door of the shop was pushed open from the outside.
The young girl who came in has beautiful big (harmonious) wavy curly hair. Jenkins saw her at the Wangli Opera House last Sunday. This is Miss Jennifer Lawrence.
"Jennifer!"
"Oh, Britney, what a coincidence, I will meet you here."
Miss Lawrence didn't know Jenkins, and the two had never met officially. But after Miss Mikhail's introduction, she immediately understood that this was the newly emerging aristocrat who was in the limelight recently. In the salons and gatherings of young people, the topic of Williams was very popular.
She was a little surprised that Miss Mihail would appear here with such a man at this time, but her good education made her know that she could not ask this question anyway.
More coincidentally, Miss Lawrence met Hathaway at the other end of Uzwil Avenue ten minutes ago. The latter was looking for the latest scores in the bookstore. The two were still chatting about today's weather.
"So Hathaway is still there now?"
Miss Mihaier asked impatiently.
"Sorry, Britney. But I think she should have gone back in the carriage. When I saw her, she was paying for her new book."
"Oh, that's really unlucky."
At this point, Jenkins and Miss Mikhail have decided to return directly to the house of Earl Hesha. After they said goodbye to Miss Lawrence politely, they opened the door and moved away from the cloakroom.
"It seems our luck is very bad, let's go back now."
As the two talked, they walked along the original road in the same direction they had come, and Miss Mihail’s face was a little disappointed. She wanted to complain to Jenkins about this annoying afternoon, but she felt that something was not suitable for him to talk to. I was struggling with new things in my mind, until I was suddenly attracted by Jenkins' words:
"Is that Mr. George Liverpool?"
Jenkins saw the young Liverpool again, this is really a persistent person. Sometimes Jenkins wonders if there is nothing else to do in his life. When he met him recently, this young man was doing things related to Miss Lawrence.
Although the law does not define trailing as illegal, it is definitely not the behavior of an honest gentleman to do so.
Chapter 576 Chapter 565
Liverpool made a very lame change, pretending to be an idler who just got off work, holding a newspaper and standing opposite the clothing store just now. Although the distance was a little far away, Jenkins found that the newspaper was from yesterday, because there was no picture of Congressman Bekov in today's news.
"It's him, is he following Jennifer? This is really rude!"
Miss Mihaier whispered, and then pulled Jenkins's sleeve.
"Sorry, can you drive him away? I didn't see Jennifer's maid just now, she probably came out by herself, I'm worried..."
From here, you can see the difference between Miss Mihail and Hathaway. If the red-haired girl next to Jenkins at this time, she would never intervene in this kind of thing casually, and what she can do is treat herself afterwards 'S friend issued a warning.
Jenkins has no intention of judging the right or wrong of these two practices. In fact, he thinks that they are all right. The important thing now is to drive away the young man who is following the peeping.
In order to look more serious, Jenkins first hugged the cat on his shoulders and stayed there with Miss Mikhail, and then put his hands in/in the pockets of his coat and walked across the street.
Very bad luck, when he just walked to the middle of the street, a very fast carriage rushed over from the other side. You know that there are a lot of people on the street now, and the slightly polite coachman will not drive the carriage over.
dodged hurriedly, but the sound of carriages passing by and people's complaints attracted Liverpool's idea. When the carriage drove away, he immediately saw Jenkins standing on the street.
was stunned for a moment, then blushed immediately, holding down the hat and lowering his head, ran to the side.
Subconsciously, Jenkins also chased after him. But I didn't expect Liverpool to immediately change from fast walking to running, and soon got into the alley on the side of the street. Jenkins went into the alley too late to say hello to Miss Mihail, only a few minutes later realized that he had no need to catch up.
Seeing Liverpool had disappeared into the complicated alley ahead, Jenkins slowed down, grabbed his hair, and kicked away the stone under his foot and started walking back.
Chengnan District has the largest slum in Nolan City, so the alleys in the city are connected to each other. There are countless secrets and crimes hidden in the alleys, which are as complicated as a maze. If there is no special reason, citizens will never enter this easily Kind of place.
Jenkins was not lost, but when he walked closer to the alleyway, he saw a boy wearing a patched cotton coat and extremely greasy hair facing him.
Ms. Mihaier is facing him, the chocolate is at her feet, and the woman looks a little panicked.
Hearing the footsteps, the boy turned around, and Jenkins noticed that he was holding a long dagger glowing with cold. The blade of the dagger is slender, and the length is longer than that of a general knife. It is definitely a murder weapon suitable for murder.
"Do not move."
He waved the weapon in his hand at Jenkins, opened his mouth wide and showed his brown teeth: "Throw the wallet on the ground, then raise his hand and walk to the woman."
"Okay, sir, if all you need is money, please take it."
He put his hand in his pocket, then threw the wallet on the ground, staring at the boy, and walking up to Miss Mikhail with his hands high. Subconsciously took a step forward, blocking the woman behind him.
"And you."
The boy continued to point to Miss Mihail: "In addition to the wallet and jewelry, I don't believe that a rich lady like you does not bring any valuables when he goes out."
Miss Mihaier pursed her lips, reached out her hand to remove the hairpin from her hair, and then bent down and placed it on the ground.
"What happened to the person who wanted to rob me last time?"
Jenkins thought in his heart, feeling bad luck today.
"Very well, I just want some money. I think for people like you, these losses are nothing. Now! Stand against the wall!"
The boy suddenly ordered loudly.
"If you just want money, there is no need to keep us."
Jenkins refused the order, and he heard what the boy meant.
"Greed and lust/desire are both original sins, sages teach us..."
"To shut up!"
This is really a manic person, maybe teenage boys have such shortcomings.
"If you want to know what color blood is, I don't mind telling you. Now! Man, get out of here! Woman, lie on the wall."
"Now, put down the weapon in your hand!"
Jenkins said that he took a step forward, and the boy subconsciously backed away, and then realized that this behavior represented his own fear. For the boy, the loss of self-esteem was more terrible than the economic loss, and he immediately became even more irritated.
But I never admit that the reason for my anger is that I hate my cowardice. It must be this thin-skinned man in front of my anger.
"Ah, you are really looking for death by yourself!"
While talking, he rushed towards Jenkins with a knife, and Miss Mihaile also screamed.
Instead of retreating, Jenkins moved in, swiftly raised his hand to support the boy's knife arm, then buckled his knuckles to remove the knife in his hand, raised his leg and slammed his knee against his stomach. A painful moan/groan.
"Huh~"
concealedly hit his abdomen with his knee again, and then threw the boy on the ground like a rag. Bend over and picked up her wallet and Miss Mihaier's wallet jewelry, then turned around and shrugged to the girl behind her:
"You should remember that I won a duel when I was at Bel Dylan. This is a very common fighting technique, and it is not surprising."
In fact, Miss Mikhail chased into the alley because Chocolate saw that Jenkins was missing and suddenly ran over. Miss Mikhail was worried that she would follow up here too. This unfortunately encountered a robbery. So judging from the facts, chocolate should also be responsible for this matter.
"Meow~"
After consulting Miss Mikhail, the two did not call the police. Instead, Jenkins took the boy's knife and kicked him again before leaving.
Only the last two steps left from the entrance of the alley, a voice came from behind again. Turning his head subconsciously, a middle-aged man with a scar on his face was squatting next to the boy looking at the wall, his face full of anger.
The cat issued an early warning, and the pocket watch chain suddenly vibrated. The man with a furious expression on his face raised his pistol at the two people in the alley.
"Be careful."
Jenkins once again protected Miss Mikhail behind him.
嘭~
PS: I am here, you guys will probably hate me to death, so add one more today. During this period when you can see me and I can’t see you, please continue to support me.
Chapter 577 Chapter 566: Scuffing and Entrustment
When I saw Hathaway and Dad at Carfax Field, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.
The use of firearms in the city is a very serious problem, especially the location where the gunfire sounded is very close to the crowded road, and a nobleman was injured in this incident.
"啧啧啧~"
Daddy looked at the scratches on Jenkins's face and sighed with a smack.
That man's marksmanship is definitely worse than Jenkins's. The bullets he fired directly hit the brick wall in the alley. Miss Mikhail was guarded, of course not injured, Jenkins's left cheek was marked with a blood stain on the splashed masonry.
The boy's dagger came out of the hand of the angry writer and hit the middle-aged man's throat with precision, which surprised Jenkins himself.
So when the policemen who were patrolling nearby arrived, they saw Mr. Baron comforting the noble lady, as well as a corpse and a badly injured boy.
With the help of the Marquis of Mikhail and the church, Jenkins and Miss Mikhail were allowed to leave the police station after recounting what happened at the time.
The night has come. Papa and Hathaway greeted them in front of the iron fence of the Carfax Field. A police officer with a star on his shoulder sent them here. There were Mihaier’s carriage and the old butler at the far end of the street. He didn't come over unconsciously, but waited with an impeccable smile.
"Are you all right?"
Hathaway hugged Miss Mihail unscrupulously. Jenkins looked at his father, who shrugged his shoulders, presumably asking him if he should also hug Jenkins.
"I heard from you as soon as I got home, I was really terrified."
Hathaway let go of Miss Mikhail with sobbing, then turned to Jenkins and reached out to touch his side face. There is now a piece of white gauze glued with medical tape, which was handled by the police doctor at Carfax Field. In fact, there is no need at all, it is just a small abrasion, even if Jenkins does not treat it, it will not last long on the face.
"Way, Jenkins, your face... will not leave permanent scars?"
This question was not asked by Hathaway, she knows Jenkins's healing ability. The question was Miss Mihail. She walked up to a man and a woman, and the old man retreated back to the carriage acquaintedly.
"It shouldn't be, it's just a bruise."
Jenkins shook his head, "And have you never heard of such a saying that scars are a man's best military medal, this is not a problem at all."
Hathaway seemed to be amused by Jenkins, but she had to maintain her image in front of Miss Mikhail, so she shook her head slightly and stepped back to Miss Mikhail and stopped talking.
Seeing Jenkins look up at her, he winked at him.
The frightened Miss Mihaier quickly went back in the carriage with Hathaway, while Jenkins and Dad stood on the street watching their carriage go away, and then boarded the carriage of the church nearby.
"well done."
This is the first sentence the old man said after getting in the car.
"Ok?"
Jenkins did not understand what this sentence was about, but he quickly thought of maintaining peace and tranquility in Nolan City again today, so he smiled and nodded to his father.
Dad knows very well that Jenkins never fully understood what he meant.
Although Jenkins was injured that evening, for him, it was just a small event in his life. The church will deal with the follow-up of this matter, and the boy who was severely injured by him will most likely not survive.
