The Master of the Strange Realm

He immediately saw Jenkins. Jenkins pointed behind him and stretched out five fingers, indicating that he had something to do now and would meet him in five minutes. Benz nodded and walked to the other side, holding the kerosene lamp high and looking down at the documents.

"The two injured ladies are okay, right?"

"It's okay. I woke up before being picked up by the carriage. It was just a skin injury... They are really unintentional disasters."

Standing behind Jenkins and looking at his back, Hathaway felt inexplicably that Jenkins was a little strange at the moment. In my impression, he would not have such a sharp temperament, nor would he show such a sharp gaze. If his temperament was similar to soft cat chocolate before, now it is so similar to the man in black robe that he unexpectedly met that night.

"Do you have any clues about the murderer?"

Jenkins asked directly. At such a close distance, the bullet from the woman just now almost hit Jenkins in the head. If he had the chance, it would be impossible for him not to retaliate.

"They should be here to find Britney..."

His tone was a little worried, but he didn't know whether he was worried about Miss Michael or Jenkins.

"The royal family is determined to reorganize the kingdom's navy, and Marquis Michael has some important information in his hands. They directly attacked Blainey, maybe to threaten Mr. Marquis, but they don't know whether the other party is a foreign spy, the royal family, or other nobles Or other forces, it’s hard to tell.”

Jenkins' eyes narrowed as he looked outside. From Hathaway's perspective, not even the light of the copper gas lamp on the corridor wall could illuminate the other half of the man's face clearly.

Her heartbeat was a little faster. Hathaway said a curse word to herself in her heart, and then asked with some worry:

"What are you going to do? These matters will be solved by the police. We don't need to put ourselves in danger."

"The police can't fix it...that's the giver."

Even without looking back, he could guess the surprise on Hathaway's face.

"The Giver?"

The girl's voice was a bit loud. She hurriedly covered her mouth and looked left and right, but no one saw her, so she lowered her voice and asked softly:

"Are you sure you are the giver? If so, the problem is serious."

Jenkins looked at Mr. Benz outside and already had an idea in his mind.

"If someone asks after a while, can you help me prove that I have been with you since this afternoon?"

"That's no problem. Wait Jenkins, what are you going to do?"

She stretched out her hand and put it on Jenkins' shoulder. Jenkins shook his head slightly: "That woman almost killed me. Of course I want revenge. Don't worry, I won't go there myself. Don't forget, I still have some." friend'."

"But......"

"Didn't I also help Miss Michael by doing this? I think you don't want someone to want to murder her all the time."

"But I don't want you to be in danger either."

The words came out of my mouth. After speaking, Hathaway covered her mouth again. But Jenkins didn't react at all. He didn't understand the deeper meaning of this sentence and only regarded it as a friend's concern.

"Damn it!"

The red-haired lady cursed quietly, held down Jenkins' shoulders and turned him around, and the two looked at each other.

"Promise me, you must be careful, your friends are not good people either."

Mr. Writer, who was still keeping his cool face, immediately turned red. He was not used to looking at a beautiful girl at such a close distance.

"It's still the same Jenkins."

Seeing his appearance, the woman smiled softly. During the few seconds when Jenkins was dazed, she took two steps closer, stood on tiptoes to test what she wanted to do, and finally kissed the side of his face.

"It doesn't mean anything else, it's just a blessing, do you understand?"

Jenkins was stunned for a moment, and his mind was drawn back from revenge.

He opened his mouth, but was immediately interrupted.

"I hope you won't say anything inappropriate at this moment."

The lady squinted her eyes in warning and stepped back with her hands behind her back, her high heels making a crisp sound on the floor: "Jenkins, be careful."

Jenkins stood there, watching Hathaway disappear around the corner, and then raised his hand to touch the side of his face. The soft feeling just now was not obvious, it was worse than the feeling of being swept by chocolate tail hair: "Why? Let her kiss you, is this the second time? "

Thinking of the scene just now and the ambiguous atmosphere that filled the air, Jenkins blinked: "Could it be that she likes me?"

This is rare, this person does not have any random guesses.

He thought of Miss Michael again and the complicated feelings between the two girls, so he shook his head and temporarily suppressed the speculation in his heart. There are more important things now, and no matter how you look at it, Hathaway is Miss Michael's lover.

Picking up the chocolate that he had been watching for a long time, Jenkins walked forward along the corridor. People kept saying hello to him. The scene where he calmly directed everyone to find police doctors and treat the injured really left a very deep impression on people. impression.

Mr. Benz was standing at the iron fence of the management center waiting for Jenkins. He was a member of Captain Binsey's team and was familiar with Jenkins.

I came here this time not knowing that the case was related to the Giver. There is no evidence to prove this yet. It's just that the church heard that Jenkins was involved in this matter, so it sent someone to deal with him to prevent something unpleasant from happening.

"As long as you're okay, the captain asked me to get there as quickly as possible!"

This is a man with a relatively cheerful personality, at least more cheerful than Captain Binsi, who has a serious expression all day long.

"Sir, what about your uniform..."

"Oh, this."

Mr. Bentz rubbed the police rank on his shoulder with his finger, and pointed to the black leather boots stepping on the weeds under the rusty iron fence. After the driver on the side drove away waving his whip, he explained:

"This is a real police officer uniform. The combat team has a special mission, so it has a clear official identity, which also facilitates movement."

Jenkins nodded, this makes sense, "So are there any clues about this case?"

"I asked just now."

His tone was a little more relaxed than before, probably because he didn't take what was going on here as a big deal.

"The footprints disappeared into the trees over there, and they should have left the tree. If you are still concerned about this matter, I can tell you when there is a result."

"Thank you very much, sir."

He put on the hat he was holding and looked towards the bushes.

The interrogation of Boglo Stippi from the Magic Eye Collection Association, who was captured that day, is still ongoing. But the results will come out in just two days. Judging from the current situation, he probably went to Dad's antique store on a whim and had no special purpose.

After bidding farewell to Mr. Benz, Jenkins excused himself to go back to the city with Miss Hesha, so he politely declined his invitation, but actually returned alone.

The neighborhood where Miss Audrey lives is also on the outskirts of the city, and is actually not that far away from here. When the lights came on, all the houses except her next door neighbor had the unique dim yellow light of gas lamps.

After tidying up his clothes, Jenkins rang the copper bell with colorful ribbons at the fence a few times. The maid soon appeared and opened the door for him.

"Welcome, Mr. Willamt will show up at this time. Do you want to have dinner with us?"

The woman was sitting in the living room wearing home clothes. There was an open black book with the back facing up on the sofa next to her. The title of the book is: From the Norland Coast to the Golden Harbors: A Brief History of Trade.

Seeing where Jenkins' eyes were directed, she smiled softly and tapped the spine of the book with her finger. The written text flashed and turned into brand new information:

"Impermanent Destiny: The Thirty-Two Impermanent Cards"

He bent down and sat down with a serious look on his face:

"There's no need for dinner, Miss Audrey. I'm taking the liberty of coming to visit you so late. I want to ask for your help, yes, help."

PS: Without the really chaotic plot of Guiquan, the progress of the love line will be temporarily stalled. I want to solve the main plot of this volume. The conflict point in the plot (moment of pretentiousness) will occur at the end of this month in the story time, that is, before the month of Sage and Traveler changes. Before that, there are still about three short plots to go on.

Of course, the matter of repairing the pocket watch was deliberately pushed back. Do you still remember the foreshadowing of the last time you repaired the pocket watch?

Another: This volume also contains some content. How do you feel about it now? Is it okay? Any comments?

Chapter 282 Chapter 278 Everything is impermanent

Jenkins asked, looking away from the book. The Impermanence Card is a set of gifts that are said to be related to the Destiny Hermit's becoming a god. But most of these secrets involving gods are false, otherwise the information about this set of gifts would not have been placed on the second floor of the Secret Library.

"You don't have to be so polite. Please sit down."

The maid on the side brought tea and then left consciously. Jenkins organized his language and then said:

"It's like this, well, I would like to ask you to help divine the location of a person, the location of the benefactor. I can provide a reward."

"There is no need for payment. I told you when I first visited Mr. William's house that I would be happy to help you. I need some clues, clues related to the person you are looking for, at least one direction."

"Can."

Jenkins nodded and reached into his arms. On the way here, he wrote and drew the woman's face on the paper.

"Very clear appearance... Please wait a moment. If it's a specific location, I think I need to prepare."

With that said, she stood up and wanted to leave. But he paused, bent down, picked up the book and put it in front of Jenkins: "If you are interested, you can read this book. The knowledge in it is very interesting."

After saying that, regardless of Jenkins' reaction, he walked straight up the stairs.

"Meow~"

Chocolate let out a lazy chirp, reminding Jenkins that it was always there. Jenkins rubbed its head, reached out and picked up the book.

The weight of this book is very light, which cannot be explained by the material problem. Following the contact, a cold breath actually flowed into Jenkins' body from the book cover through his fingers. Although it was very subtle, it was spirit.

He placed the book back on the coffee table in front of him, removed the tea cup, and blinked.

"Such a rich white aura? Is this book a gift?"

He thought in surprise, but every unowned gift he had come into contact with before would actively attract him to touch it, but he didn't feel anything about this one. Does it already have an owner?

Miss Audrey came back soon, holding a crystal ball in her hand, which is the kind commonly used by psychics and diviners in Jenkins' knowledge.

"How about the content of this book?"

She sat down and asked with a chuckle while preparing for the divination ceremony.

"Is this a...gift?"

"Eh? Did you see it? Yes, there are 108 Impermanence cards, and this is one of them. But now I can't let it show its true colors, so I can only study it slowly. Unexpectedly, Mr. Williamte suddenly I see it. I wonder if there is any way to restore it to its original state?"

Jenkins reached out and picked up the book again, and the buttons on the cuffs made a slight sound against the table. The spirit from the book cover is still flowing, but very slowly.

He has heard of the Impermanent Destiny Card before. This deck has never been collected and completed, but each one is a gift, and 108 cards share a number. Details of three of them are in the Nolan Parish library, but Jenkins has not seen them.

"Since it is fate, should we try with the power of fate?"

he asked.

"I have relevant abilities and have tried to resonate, but it's a pity that it doesn't work."

As he spoke, he lit the vanilla in the unicorn-shaped incense burner. Chocolate's nose moved a few times, and then he sneezed violently.

"Do you know the details of this card?"

he asked again.

"[Arsonist], it should be this one."

As soon as she finished speaking, the woman stopped what she was doing and looked at Jenkins thoughtfully. It had only been a week since the last strange situation, and she remembered the aftermath of that incident very clearly.

Jenkins had the same idea. He picked up the book and put it on his lap, summoned his own light spot, and focused his energy on the [Flame Favorite].

This was originally an ability that did not require activation and was similar to a passive function, but at this moment the light spot began to emit a faint purple light.

The book on his knees trembled violently, and Jenkins felt that the book was actually a sealed shell, and the cards inside were the core. It is answering the call of destiny from its origin, but the Sealed Book prevents this.

There was no need for Jenkins to do anything next. The book on his lap floated, and the power of the cards and the seal were engaged in the most ferocious confrontation.

A strong wind blew in the room, and the curtains behind him flew up and down. In the end, the cards won.

Amidst the sound of broken pages, the book emitted a white aura before Jenkins' eyes, an aura visible to the naked eye. As a huge spirit sank into his body, there was a roar in the ears of Jenkins and Audrey at the same time.

In the extreme white aura, a tall woman wearing a sacrificial robe suddenly appeared. Facing a huge stone door with a human face imprinted on it, she threw a card.

When the card was inserted into the ground like a sharp knife, a stream of black mud poured out from behind the door, instantly covering the card. When the disgusting black mud seeps into the soil, only a book is left on the ground.

The white light dissipated and the cards fell onto Jenkins' lap, faintly calling for him to touch.

"That was just now..."

"Illusion, an illusion when this book was formed. The door that the woman faced seemed to be a strange thing, and I have heard of those black mud somewhere..."

She fell into deep thought, and Jenkins understood that the spirit just now was the reward for destroying the seal. Since the material of that book comes from a kind of treacherous object, it must have black aura, but it is a derivative of the treacherous object, so the aura is slightly weaker and suppresses the aura of the Wanxiang Impermanence card. This can explain what just happened. Something happened.

"A-12-03-8194, Gate of the Faceless Ones."

Miss Audrey slowly said these words, "It should be this, but I still need to check some information to be sure. Ignore these for now, let's start divination!"

"Yes, let's start the divination first. If it takes too long, I'm worried that she will run away."
