Dominate the Treacherous Realm

　　 "So what happened?"

　　 Goldilocks is still curious.

　　 "Um...gun, then, bang~"

　　 He briefly described it, and gestured a chubby thing with his hands on his chest. As he said "Boom~", the gesture suddenly exploded. Jenkins really hoped this didn't scare Brian, she did not seem to mind.

　　 "Murder?"

　　 "I don't know, it seems that friends who are acquainted have turned against each other."

　　 Jenkins shrugged, then looked out the window. He didn't want to talk about this issue with the girls, more precisely, he didn't want to talk about this topic with Britney.

　　 Lunch was interrupted by disappointment. Jenkins wanted to find another restaurant to continue his meal, but at this time there was not much time until the prom started, and food would be served there, so he had to give up.

　　 The carriage first sent the three people and one cat to Hathaway's temporary residence by the river, so that the girls could put on beautiful prom dresses. Hathaway’s skirt is elegant blue. Jenkins is not sure what the material of the transparent ribbon decoration is. They don’t look like the products of this era. If it’s silk, the price is terribly expensive. Up.

　　 The upper part of Britney's skirt is burgundy, and the bottom hem is black. But because of the beautiful lace ornaments and a series of patterns on the waist that Jenkins doesn't recognize, this dress will not look very mature.

　　 Compared with their elaborate dress, Jenkins, who is still in a black formal dress and a white shirt, looks a bit old-fashioned. He refused to accept any clothes with lace decorations, and did not like colors other than black and white.

　　 Even if it weren't for Miss Stuart's warning, a bow tie instead of a tie should be used for the dance. Jenkins might wear a black tie like attending a formal meeting.

　　 While the man was changing clothes on the second floor, Hathaway and Britney waited on the first floor of the Jenkins house. The two of them also knew about Jenkins' quirk of sleeping in front of the fireplace in winter, so they were not surprised by the quilt on the sofa.

　　 But I have to admit that this man who lives alone kept his home in order. Although it's not that rigid and tidy, it doesn't look chaotic either.

　　 The two girls were concerned about Jenkins’ privacy, but they didn’t move around in the living room. When Brian raised her head to look at the sword that Jenkins had hung up-the one obtained when she was knighted for the first time, she suddenly heard a strange noise behind her.

　　 Turning his head, the chocolate ran out of the kitchen pushing a huge red fruit. The cat is very small, which adds to the size of the fruit.

　　Bryney didn't recognize what it was at first glance, but it took a while to realize that it was dragon fruit.

　　 "How can there be such a thing in the Jenkins family, it seems to be winter now, and this thing is only available in the southern part of the mainland..."

　　 She bent down to pick up the fruit on the carpet, but was immediately threatened by the whisper of chocolate. Hathaway who heard this voice hurriedly walked over and took Brian's hand back.

　　 "Chocolate doesn't like what other people touch it. Well, this is what Jenkins told me."

　　 "Why does the Jenkins family have such fruits?"

　　 "Probably it was sent by the church, you know, his current position in the Church of the Sages is unusual."

　　 Hathaway explained, while scolding Jenkins in her heart for not tidying up her things. Because the fruit plate was purchased from Mr. Hood’s party, Jenkins never showed it to Hathaway. At this time, Hathaway only obtained this untimely fruit when Jenkins used weird means.

　　 After changing his clothes, Jenkins walked back to the second floor and saw the chocolate he was stealing. This is the first time the fruit plate has this kind of fruit. Although the cat is curious, but unable to peel it, he can only push the fruit in circles on the carpet.

　　 After promised to get the flesh out of it after going home at night, the cat was a little more settled. It looked suspiciously at Jenkins's dress, and was a little worried that he could not follow the prom for a while.

　　 But in fact, this dance is a private dance, and it is basically a gathering of young people who like to have fun and make friends. There was no objection to Jenkins bringing his own pet.

The location of the 　　 dance party was in a big mansion not far from the outskirts of the city. It belonged to a certain big businessman. This time he generously loaned his house out, as if he wanted to curry favor with the party organizer.

　　 "I'm not very clear, I mentioned it when I listened to them in the club a few days ago."

　　 Hathaway, who had stepped out of the carriage, introduced that Britney didn't pay attention to everyone talking about these things at the time.

　　 Most of the young people participating in the dance don’t recognize Jenkins, but they all know Jenkins. For his presence here, most people showed exceptional enthusiasm. Especially the enthusiasm of the girls almost broke their clothes, but fortunately, Jenkins's female companion has been strictly supervising him, so that no indecent things have happened.

　　 Jenkins rarely participates in such activities, and the most high-end dance party he has ever participated in is naturally the one at Roon. Jenkins believes that Hathaway's dancing skills are much better than Miss Stuart. This is probably because Hathaway is taller and works well with Jenkins when she dances.

　　 But relatively speaking, Britney's dancing skills are much worse. Jenkins didn't point it out, and pretended to be awkward, and the blonde girl praised Jenkins for making great progress after the two dances.

Chapter 800

　　 "The last time we invited you to a dance party, you barely knew how to dance."

　　 Hathaway is not suspicious, just pure ridicule. Jenkins realized this, so he just found a reason to prevaricate the past.

　　 In fact, the focus of the prom is not dancing, but socializing. This is what Miss Stuart told Jenkins. Jenkins agrees with this, because once he sits down and rests, someone will sit next to him and talk about some inexplicable things.

　　 This forced Jenkins had to get up many times and invite the girls to dance to get rid of the boring conversation. Hathaway and Britney looked very happy, especially when they found that Jenkins invited them to dance, they always followed the order one at a time.

"What are you thinking?"

　　 The music suddenly eased, and the red-haired girl's face was close to Jenkins, and she whispered in his ear.

　　 She expected Jenkins to be able to talk about some romantic topics. Although this possibility is extremely small, she never expected that Jenkins' thinking could diverge to that extent on this occasion.

　　 "I'm still thinking about the murder just now."

　　 The man's tone is serious.

　　 "Does that have anything to do with us?"

　　 Hathaway had to admit that she was really angry at this time.

　　 "I am not sure about this, although the two men are ordinary people, but..."

　　 He and his dancing partner moved a little bit to the edge of the dancing crowd, and dared to continue speaking when no one was paying attention:

　　 "But the person who shot himself in the end had something wrong with the pistol in his hand."

　　 "Number the item?"

　　 Hathaway asked in surprise.

　　 "No, how could we encounter two different numbered items in three hours?"

　　 Jenkins explained, while gently swaying in the rhythm of the saxophone and clarinet.

　　 Eyes slanted to one side, watching Britney staying with Chocolate, then relieved.

　　 "I mean that the pistol has been specially treated. Although I don't know what ritual was used, I at least understand that the source of the pistol is not simple."

　　 What I saw through the real eye just now was actually a dazzling black aura. If there was no female companion by his side, Jenkins might stay under curiosity to see what happened. But Britney was by his side, he wanted to protect the girl's safety.

　　 "Which two people are related to the giver?"

　　 "It's also possible that some bold gifter sold the ritual-handled pistol. You know, some unlucky ones who lack money may sell some insignificant things to ordinary people because they are tight on hand."

　　 At this point, the dance music is over. Jenkins took Hathaway's hand and returned to the sofa aside. Brian brought juice for the two. She knew that Jenkins hated drinks.

　　 "Do you need a break?"

　　 Her hand was naturally squeezed on Jenkins's shoulder. Considering the relationship between Brian and Hathaway, plus the sentence just now, Jenkins felt that the scene was a little weird.

　　 "Fortunately, Britney, don’t think I don’t exercise much, but in fact, just walking the cat every day is enough to be called fitness."

　　 said, drank the drink in the cup, then patted the cat who was unhappy because of being left out, and then took Britney's hand and walked back to the dance floor again.

　　 "Did you see the two girls over there? The two who came down from the second floor."

　　 The hands of the two are clasped together, and Goldilocks's other hand rests on Jenkins's shoulder. While she was talking, she hinted Jenkins to look to the right with her eyes:

　　 "Look, the taller one is the cousin of Duke Francis, and the shorter one is the foreign countess who is visiting with the Chesland Kingdom delegation."

　　 "It looks so young."

　　 Jenkins whispered.

"is it?"

　　 "Oh, I mean...The countess looks young, but I think you and Hathaway are more beautiful."

　　 If other men say such things on this occasion, the blonde girl will only feel bored, only Jenkins can say such things awkwardly. But Britney doesn't hate him doing this, because only in this way can he prove that he is Jenkins Williams.

　　 The name "Duke Francis" made Jenkins familiar. After thinking about it for a while, he remembered the hapless ghost who died in the twin devil incident. After the death of the old Duke Francis, his son inherited the title and commissioned his cousin to come to Nolan to handle the castle for summer vacation. Jenkins and his father also encountered a dreadful situation when they went to the castle to shop for goods. Jenkins It was also Professor Burns who only met at that time.

　　 "I heard that it was to collect the bones of the cousin of Duke Francis, so I came to Nolan."

　　 "But that person has been dead for almost half a year, how come now..."

　　 "In fact, it's surprising enough for the young duke to remember that he still has a cousin who died in a foreign country."

　　 Britney said mockingly.

　　 Now that we talked about the nobles of a foreign country, it is hard not to remember that earlier this week, the execution team of the Inquisition of the Sage Church collided with the convoy of these noble guests.

　　 Jenkins doesn't care about these things, but the incident caused a great uproar among ordinary people. Even the visiting guests who were supposed to leave Nolan next week plan to stay for another week to confirm what the Church of the Sage is going to do.

　　Bryney didn't think the incident had anything to do with Jenkins, she just told her what she saw and heard in a mocking tone. The object of her ridicule is naturally the "southerners". In the eyes of the residents of the Kingdom of Fidictle, those southerners are vulgar and arrogant.

　　 "Did the foreign duke come today?"

　　 Jenkins has a deep memory of that man. He is not only a believer of the sage, but also a benefactor.

　　 "It shouldn't be here. The organizer of this dance party hasn't had that great face yet, so he invited an unfamiliar duke to participate."

　　 Having said that, Hathaway chuckled lightly, as if remembering something funny:

"But the Duke is probably not a serious person. I heard from friends that after he came to us, he was not keen on socializing, but has been lingering in the opera house, concert hall and even the circus. He seems to Very obsessed with the stage, this is really a quirk."

"Oh?"

　　 Jenkins just smiled and did not comment.

　　 The crystal lamp above the head emits a charming brilliance, illuminating the young people who enjoy themselves. Regardless of whether they like or enjoy this dance party, they are all participants here.

　　 is like on the stage of destiny, the moment you step into the stage, you can't help it. Jenkins is in awe of fate, but he can't tell whether he is a participant or a bystander.

Chapter 801 Chapter 785 The Forgotten Gun

The 　　 dance party lasted until about nine o'clock in the evening, and most people were still unsatisfied. The gentlemen and the girls blushed, and some even suggested to have fun elsewhere.

　　 Jenkins has always been curious about what the second floor of this house is for, and it has also been opened for the use of the dance party. But Hathaway and Britney both forbid Jenkins to inquire, and both take advantage of being alone with Jenkins, implying that they can answer this question for him in the future.

　　 First sent Hathaway and Britney home. After thinking about it for a long time, she didn't figure out who to invite to the family banquet at the end of the month. When I returned to St. George Street, I felt a little headache. This may be because I drank too much grape juice and got drunk.

　　 The lights in Jenkins' house are on, which means someone is inside. Pushing open the door and seeing the old man, he was sitting on the sofa with a pair of glasses looking at a stack of documents.

　　 "Good evening, do you need tea?"

　　 Jenkins put the cat down and was about to go to the kitchen.

　　 "No, there are some things to tell you. You change your clothes first, and take care to wipe off the lipstick on your face."

"Ok?"

　　 Jenkins finally understood why the coachman’s eyes had been strange on the way back.

　　 The lipstick mark on his face was probably left behind by kissing his cheeks when he was separated from his female companions. While looking in the mirror, Jenkins' eyes widened and looked carefully for a while, and then he was startled by the black tentacles dancing in the depths of the mirror.

　　 "Chocolate, I have said many times, don't hide behind me and wag my tail when I look in the mirror!"

　　 He warned loudly, and the cat trot and slipped out of the bathroom door.

　　 changed the somewhat restrained formal clothes and returned to the living room. The old man had already spread the papers all over the coffee table at this time.

　　 He motioned for Jenkins to sit down, Jenkins nodded, and saw a list of goods leaning on the edge of the table.

　　 "In fact, it's not a big event. Something happened in the store after you left at noon today. It's hard to describe..."

"whats the matter?"

　　 Jenkins asked curiously, and he saw clearly that the antique shop's purchase order and delivery order were all over the table.

　　 The father has not let him take over this kind of thing, because there are some things in these lists that are not suitable for Jenkins to know.

　　 "The problem is, I forgot what it was."

　　 Daddy took a breath, his tone very confused.

　　 "Do you know the kind of feeling that you have forgotten one thing, but you just don't know what it feels like to forget something?"

　　 "Probably understand."

　　 Jenkins expressed affirmation very uncertainly.

　　 "So, from the time you left the antique shop to lunch, something definitely happened, but I can't remember it at all."

　　 He put the last list in his hand on the only empty space on the table, and then motioned Jenkins to check it.

　　 "It was probably sometime in the afternoon. I vaguely realized that a product was sold in the morning, but there was a force that prevented me from recalling what it was."

　　 "Why don't you report to the church, or call the sage's attention directly to wipe out the power that affects memory?"

　　 Jenkins suggested.

"I tried, and the sage's gaze reminded me that what I sold was a weapon, an antique weapon. But the influence exerted on memory is continuous. The sage can help me eliminate it, but once his gaze disappears , This kind of influence will appear again."
