Dominate the Treacherous Realm

　　 It raised its head suddenly, widened its eyes and raised its head over Jenkins's body, looking at the bedside table on the other side of the bed, with amber eyes gleaming in the bedroom.

　　 It stared at the fruit on the bedside table motionlessly, knowing that Jenkins always slept very shallowly, so it was still thinking about how to get there.

　　 Chocolate usually sleeps on the left side of Jenkins pillow, because Jenkins often sleeps on the left side. On the right side is the direction close to the door. Jenkins, who came in from the door, of course put the things in his hand on the bedside table on the right.

　　 The cat knows that if you jump over the entire bed over Jenkins, there is a great risk of waking a man up. And if you jump to the floor from the left, and then circle the bed from below, although the risk is small, Jenkins may feel the weight of the bed change and wake up.

　　PS: I wish you all a happy National Day~ Seek everything at the beginning of the month.

Chapter 1011 Chapter 993

　　 In the dark bedroom, only the man’s breathing is the most obvious. The cat desperately wants to eat something, but it understands that it can’t wake Jenkins.

　　 Speaking of which, although Jenkins is not like the Princess and the Pea in "Stranger Story", he can feel whether there are peas under the mattress, but he is particularly sensitive to whether there is a cat next to the pillow.

　　 Chocolat's eyes widened and looked up at his goal for a long time, before he made up his mind and slowly retracted his head again, turning it into the same ball-like appearance just now. But its claws rubbed against the sheet regularly, allowing its body to move smoothly towards the bed.

　　 Ten minutes later, without disturbing Jenkins, the chocolate finally moved to the bed. Just when it was about to "fall" out of the bed with a beautiful rollover, the man's hand grabbed the cat, and then pulled it back to the pillow.

　　 "Go to bed, get up early tomorrow."

　　 Jenkins vaguely asked, muttered a word and fell asleep again.

　　From the expression of that cat, it is easy to find that it is very unhappy now. The cat pretended to be asleep, but was actually squinting at Jenkins. It took a while before it really closed its eyes.

　　 Kitten already knows that there will be no chance tonight. Mr. Writer who sleeps next to him is so keen sometimes.

　　 was awakened by chocolate early the next morning, it jumped directly on Jenkins and tried to jump from him to under the bed. Jenkins thought that the cat had noticed the neighbor’s pet chicken and wanted to go outside to play with it, but later discovered that the cat originally wanted to add a meal before breakfast, and he became very interested in the fruit of last night.

　　 Oranges and cherries are both easy to handle, which are common fruits for Jenkin. It's just that dark fruit, Jenkins really doesn't know how to eat it.

　　 But the chocolate has been annoying him on the side, and Jenkins also felt that the peel was too thick and hard, so he put it on the cutting board and picked up the kitchen knife and cut it down.

　　 estimated that this fruit might be difficult to cut, so Jenkins still used some effort. But after the blade went down, there was no touch at all.

Picking up the knife and looking at the rapidly disappearing white mark on the peel, glanced at the knife, and then at the cat with a look of anticipation on the side, Jenkins raised the kitchen utensils in his hand high, and then slammed it down with a low whisper. .

　　Pong~

In the loud noise, the cutting board and chopper that accompanied Jenkins for half a year were completely scrapped, and the black fruit slipped to the ground due to kinetic energy.

　　 dropped the scrap iron in his hand, bent over to pick it up, blinked and saw the blue aura.

　　 "Oh, it turned out to be like this...Isn't it said that only ordinary fruits can be obtained?"

　　 Chocolate feels that this thing is far away from me.

　　 The origin of this fruit can probably be found in the library of the church. Thinking of this, Jenkins reduced the time for breakfast and went to the church before going to the old antique shop.

　　 He is now a Level 4 bestower and can view more information in the Secret Track Library. Although the secret guard was surprised that Jenkins came so early, he still opened the door for him.

There are not many fruits with strong aura. Jenkins checked from the first floor of the library to the third floor, and it took nearly an hour to find the fruit on the shelf marked with "Wonderful Objects" on the third floor. Matching pictures.

　　 The correct name of the fruit is [Fruit of Ennyaris], because it was the spirit named "Ennyaris" who first discovered this fruit.

　　The description of the fruit in the church books is not very detailed. It only mentions that the shell of this fruit is hard, but the flesh obtained after being cut has the function of regenerating a person's limbs when applied externally.

　　 It is suspected that this fruit is related to an extinct alien species [immortal lizard], because the skin of the fruit is too similar to the skin of the undead lizard, but there is no evidence to support this bold speculation.

　　 "Rebirth from a broken limb? [The Origin of Life] can barely be done."

　　 Thinking of this, Jenkins's interest in this fruit suddenly dropped to zero. He also wanted to see what happened to [Mr. Hunter's Fruit Plate], but the church account was no different from the account of Mr. Birch who sold this item at the time.

　　 Jenkins suddenly began to wonder how Mr. Birchwood found the plate, but he was already dead...

　　 "I remember my father said that the secret trail library has a backup list of illegal benefactors who died every month, and I might be able to find out about Mr. Birchwood."

　　 Even though most of those who are illegally gifted are not treated by the church, the church will still guarantee that their privacy will not be leaked after their death. Only the name can be found in the library, but no materials related to the real life of Mr. Birchwood can be found, so Jenkins directly asked the secret guard where the secret materials were stored.

　　The secret guard didn't ask Jenkins what he wanted to do, so he pushed the door of Vientiane a little further to the outside.

　　 This time, the space behind the door is like a narrow crypt. Only a small bookshelf is placed in the crypt. On it is the information of all the illegal gifters who died in Nolan who were counted by the church in the past ten years.

　　 The information of Mr. White Birch was quickly found. Jenkins took the information in his heart and said goodbye to the secret guard and planned to return to the old antique shop.

　　 As soon as he entered the temple from the back courtyard, he ran into the bishop who was talking to another old priest. He motioned Jenkins to stop, and after talking to the old priest about next week's Mass, he called Jenkins to the other side alone.

　　 "We got news that the queen's physical condition has deteriorated drastically, and your ceremony to enter the nobility. I am afraid it will be delayed for a while."

　　 said the bishop, he seemed worried, and he was worried about war and peace.

　　 "It's okay, I don't really care about it, and I don't want to leave Nolan for extra long-distance travel in the near future."

　　 Jenkins replied, touching his cat and begging it not to move.

"That’s good... One more thing, I don’t know if you read this morning’s newspaper news. The Kingdom of Hampawo has taken the lead in establishing the Kingdom’s Banking Department. Although there are some differences between the previous Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Finance. The functions overlap, but the jurisdiction is very wide. I think Cheslan and the country should also announce the establishment of such a department before the end of the month. We are now worried that the kingdom will call you to Beldiran and make a fuss as your nobleman. Make you an official clerk of the government."

　　 The bishop seemed to be worried about this, frowning when he spoke. This kind of action made him a lot older.

Chapter 1012 Chapter 994

　　 The bishop seems to be worried about Jenkins's involvement with the government of the kingdom, but Jenkins has no interest in it.

　　 "Don't worry about this, I won't go into politics."

　　 Jenkins assured, and then asked:

　　 "Who is in charge of the banking department of the Kingdom of Hampawo?"

"It was the former Chancellor of the Exchequer, but Salsi II also sent one of his daughters to participate in the reorganization of the department. I don’t want all power to be delegated to the parliament...Speaking of which, the Kingdom of Hampawo The relevant decree is to some extent the same as yours. It seems that they have also found an economist who can understand future development trends just like you."

　　 Jenkins has never been an economist, and will never become an economist in the future. After bidding farewell to the bishop, he went to the old antique shop. The old man was surprised that Jenkins was half an hour late today, but he knew that he was going to church in the morning, so he didn't ask more.

　　 This is another peaceful and peaceful day, maybe the Skeleton Sword has really consumed all bad luck.

　　 In the morning, the old painter and the owner of the exhibition visited the antique shop again to see if Jenkins had recovered his health.

　　 In order to entertain them, Jenkins did not do anything else all morning. It was close to eleven o'clock that the two were sent away, and then it was already lunch time.

　　 Nothing happened in the afternoon, even if I went out to give things to my father, I didn’t have any accidents. In the evening, the church sent a letter to Dad asking him to go to the church to participate in an important meeting, which seemed to be something related to [Alien Frenzy]. So Jenkins got off work an hour early, turned around and locked the door of the antique shop, hesitated at the door, and finally decided to go and see Mr. Birch before the start of the fighting class tonight.

　　 Chocolate reminds Jenkins to have dinner first before doing other things. With this "cat-shaped alarm clock", Jenkins never has to worry about missing a meal.

　　 Mr. White Birch’s real name is Jack Wood, a combination of a very common name and a very common surname, he is a very common middle-aged person.

　　 His job is an accountant in a large factory in this city. In addition to himself, he has a mother, wife and two teenage children in his family.

　　 When Mr. Bai Birch met the flower girl, he already knew that he could not survive. He knew some of the weird characteristics of the flower girl, and in order to prevent the power of the scam from affecting his family, he chose to refuse the transaction and died happily, and even told the church about his encounter with A-01-2-0198 before he died. , I hope that my family can be taken care of because I have provided valuable information.

　　 After the death of Mr. White Birch, the Wood family moved away from their original residence. Although there are women and children in the family, everyone has a relatively legitimate source of income, and Mr. Bai Birch has left a wealth of inheritance.

　　 Coupled with the assistance of the church and the help of past friends, the Wood family's life is actually not that bad, at least better than Jenkins thought.

　　 He put on a black robe and changed the color of the unwilling cat before he walked to the current address of the Wood family. It was a rented apartment facing the street, and a family of four squeezed into a room on the second floor. There are no adult men in the family, which makes it difficult for them to live in the originally complicated alley, so they can only move here.

When 　　 looked up at the third floor of the apartment across the street, a carriage drove up from the other side of the street and stopped in front of Jenkins. A young woman dressed in a fashionable veil walked off the carriage. She was very surprised when she saw the man with the white cat.

　　 "Hi, good evening, Miss Bailing."

　　 The woman who greeted Hathaway in this way, disguised herself and used spells to disguise her face, Jenkins immediately retreated into the carriage of the carriage vigilantly. After Jenkins asked the driver for the money and paid for the car, she reluctantly walked down.

　　 "Do you recognize me? Don't worry, I am not here to wait for you."

　　 He pointed to the apartment opposite: "I think we just happen to have the same purpose."

　　 "How did you recognize me?"

　　 Hathaway is still very alert. Among the four people who participated in the Mr. Hood party, she has the most serious distrust of Mr. Candle.

　　 "This is my talent."

　　 he replied with a smile, and then made a gesture of asking:

　　 "I want to visit the Woods now, do you want to go together? Or wait for me to come out, you have another chance to knock on the door?"

　　 Two consecutive visits by strangers will of course cause vigilance, so the reluctant Hathaway finally had to step up the doorstep with Jenkins.

　　 Jenkins reached out and knocked on the door. After explaining his intentions to the landlord, Mr. Bai Birch’s mother came downstairs and saw them. Although Jenkins is off work now, Mrs. Wood and two children, who are engaged in relatively low-end jobs, still work in the factory. Only Mr. Bai Birch’s mother is at home.

　　 She was quite vigilant about the two people who claimed to be friends with their late sons, so she didn't invite them in at the beginning. It wasn't until Hathaway took out a rusty necklace that she looked at the strange men and women in front of her suspiciously again, and then slowly turned around and invited them to sit upstairs.

　　 Four people live in one room, which makes the inside of the house look rather messy, and there is also some sour smell. The cat, who was very sensitive to smell, jumped on the window sill with the open window, and looked at the street scene outside with boredom.

　　 There are two pots of dying cacti on the window sill. Chocolate knows that this is something that will pierce your mouth, so Jenkins doesn’t have to worry about eating it indiscriminately.

　　 sat on the sofa with Hathaway, and soon the old man brought them a tea cup, but it was just white water.

　　 Explaining his intention without wasting time, Jenkins drew the fruit bowl in the form of color photos on paper and asked the old man if he knew about it. Hathaway claimed to have taken things according to the agreement. Mr. Birchwood had promised her during his lifetime. Once he died, the wooden statue he owned would belong to Hathaway in half a year.

　　 Things are going well, Jenkins and the redhead have achieved their goals. The old man remembers the fruit plate, because she bought it from a secondhand dealer and she can clearly state the address of the shop; and the old man also knows the wooden statue Hathaway mentioned, which is called Mr. Birch. His relic was taken to the apartment when he moved.

　　 Although the old man didn't know the agreement between the late son and the woman in front of him, she didn't refuse such a generous deal in the face of the gold pound that Hathaway took out.

Chapter 1013 Chapter 995

　　 After reaching his goal, he left. When he stepped out of the apartment, Jenkins was very happy that the day went well. Although Hathaway on the side was also very happy, she was still alert to Mr. Candle.

　　 wanted to separate from this mysterious man at the intersection, but Jenkins' words stopped her:

　　 "I don't know what you want to do with this statue, but I must remind you that this is not a good thing. If I were you, I would immediately throw it away. This is my advice to you as a friend."

　　 The object of the wood carving is not a person, but a bird with outstretched wings. It looks like an eagle, but it looks like a crow when you look closely. Jenkins saw a very thin black aura on this, so he warned.

　　 "I see, thank you."

　　 Hathaway said so, but Jenkins believed that she would not easily lose this wood carving.

　　 "Are women gifters so unwilling to trust others?"

　　 He stretched his voice and asked, Hathaway looked like she wanted to leave, but she didn’t know what she thought of, and immediately replied:

　　 "How do you know that I am really a woman? And don't look down on women, Miss Fabry, but turn you guys around."

"Yes, I am indeed a male. I do not deny that. But speaking of Miss Fabry, it seems that her deception has not been completely successful. It seems that it is a male who exposed her...Jenkins Williams, I remember this name. You asked me to investigate him last year."

　　 In the next moment, Jenkins really saw anger and murderous aura from Hathaway’s disguised face. He even thought that in the next moment, Hathaway would take out a gun and kill him, but fortunately, Hathaway was still reasonable.

　　 "Mr. Candle, no matter what you are, please remember, if you dare to do something to him, I will definitely kill you, kill you at any cost!"

　　 The woman was like an angry lioness at the moment, and the trembling voice made Jenkins a little scared.

　　 "Don't be angry, I'm just kidding. Oh, really kidding, swear in the name of my lord!"

　　 He stepped back, then touched the cat vanilla on his shoulder:

　　 "Look, how can someone who keeps such a cute cat be a bad person?"

　　 He stepped back step by step, and finally retreated to the end of the alley, and then ran to the other side of the street, so that the boy who wanted to ask him if he wanted to buy the evening newspaper nearly threw the things in his hands.

　　 Regarding Hathaway’s wariness of herself, Jenkins believes that this stems from the fact that she commissioned him to investigate Jenkins last year. On the one hand, there is a risk of revealing Hathaway’s real identity, on the other hand, it may also cause trouble for Jenkins.

　　 That’s why Hathaway showed such an attitude every time she faced the powerful and mysterious Mr. Candle. Jenkins was happy and troubled about it. Of course, he was happy because of the girl's feelings like fire, and the trouble was because the lie about Mr. Candle last year might extend a series of troubles.

　　 But in fact, Hathaway did not need to worry that Mr. Candle would hit Jenkins's idea, because after half an hour, she and Mr. Candle enthusiastically kissed in the carriage.

　　 The thrift shop that sold fruit bowls to Mr. Shirakaba’s mother is not the thrift shop that sells numbered items that the church is tracking down. Jenkins looked for it according to the address, but found that the door was locked tightly at the door, and the other party had already left work.

　　 He had to come again when he had time, and when he arrived at the gate of the Sage’s Church, he encountered the carriage carrying Hathaway again, but this time it was Hathaway’s own carriage. The woman blushed and invited Jenkins into the car to talk, and then kissed the man.

　　 She was extremely enthusiastic. This was the first time they had the opportunity to be alone after they showed their feelings to each other on the night of the opera house accident.

　　 "I am your lover, Britney is also your lover, but we are not your lover at the same time."

　　 This sentence makes Jenkins remember very deeply, and as lovers, when the two are getting along, they can naturally do something that was embarrassing to do before.

Although from a certain perspective, no one stopped them from doing things that lovers can do, but now it’s only because they understand each other’s ideas and recognize each other’s identity, so they have become a little bolder. .

　　 While holding the girl, Jenkins could feel his cat scratching his face with his paw. But the cat's strength is very small, so you don't need to care at all.

　　 After the kiss, the two blushed and separated. Jenkins licked his lips, hoping that the glass of water he rinsed after dinner would completely eliminate the smell in his mouth.

　　 He felt that the temperature in the car seemed a bit high, so he reached out and unlocked the top button of his shirt. Generally speaking, this button doesn't need to be fastened, which would seem very rigid and serious, but Jenkins felt that the button was there, and it would be useless unless it was buttoned.

　　 "Long time no see, Hathaway."

　　 "I thought you would take the initiative to find me."
