"I think I understand its function."

"What is it?"

"Maybe you haven't noticed, but after wearing the earrings, once you concentrate, the sound in the direction of your attention will become particularly clear."

Tilting her delicate face, she took off the jewelry and handed it back to Jenkins, but Jenkins didn't take it.

"Then, keep this item with you first. I won't go out with such a conspicuous earring. It's really too shameful!"

Just now, Jenkins just put the thing next to his ear, because he has never pierced his ears and doesn't plan to do it, which is probably why he didn't find the correct way to use it.

Chapter 514 Chapter 506 Meet Liverpool Again

The woman rubbed the earrings in her palm with her thumb and suddenly laughed:

"Jenkins, it's not a very strange thing for a man to wear earrings."

"No, it's a strange thing in my opinion. At least, I will never do that."

Speaking of this, Jenkins thought of the men who were dressed up in balls or banquets, and he was more determined not to use this item.

Not to mention, such highly recognizable items will be fixed to a certain identity once used, which is quite disadvantageous for Jenkins' daily activities.

"Then why keep it with me? I think such items can get a satisfactory price no matter how they are traded."

"But I am not short of money now."

As he said this, a great sense of satisfaction filled his heart. He never thought that one day he would be able to say such a sentence, but this feeling is really great!

"Besides, I am no longer a newcomer in the field of gifters, and I know the value of special items very well. In fact, I don't plan to sell any of my items in the future. This is the right way to do it."

Hathaway nodded. She saw that Jenkins really wanted to do this, so she didn't say no again. But she never took advantage of her friends, so she had already started thinking about how to repay Jenkins' "friendship".

"Recently, there have been many blood-sucking attacks in the city. I think you should have heard about it."

The new topic started when Chocolate had a good rest and was ready to climb onto the table to touch the cake on the plate. This was bought by Jenkins when he returned home in the evening. Although Hathaway did not ask him to prepare tea, he still made some desserts to entertain guests.

But obviously, a noble girl who keeps in shape will never eat such high-sugar food at night, and people like Jenkins will never understand this.

"I heard that there are rumors that the legendary vampires appeared in this city... I have decided to avoid going out at night as much as possible, because they are said to be afraid of the sun."

"I have heard similar rumors."

Jenkins is more and more certain that the Orthodox Church is definitely delivering information to illegal benefactors through the black market and other channels.

"What happened in Nolan City? It's only been a month since the devil's incident."

She looked very sad, holding her face and watching Jenkins and chocolate fighting. Although the former has the upper hand, the cat looks more like playing, not fighting for food.

"Why do I have such a strange idea?"

She herself felt a little funny.

"Obviously, this city has bad luck. I think you might be able to take a long winter trip to avoid these dangers. Friends I know, no, not believers of the new god, please don't show that expression. Ahem, among the friends I know, two have completely left the city."

"But you should have heard about the rumors about the end of the era, right?"

Hathaway asked, tapping the brown armrests of the wooden seat with his fingers.

Jenkins' mouth curled up, then closed his eyes and nodded gently.

This is a very sensitive topic, because most of the evil god churches claim that the end of the era means the destruction of the world, and believing in their gods is the only way to avoid destruction.

Because of this, even if everyone knows that the rumors are very likely to be true, they still tacitly avoid such topics-no one wants to be considered a believer of the evil god.

Thinking of what happened today, Jenkins invited Hathaway to work with him to create a new opera for the Silver Jasmine Opera Company. Although she was a little surprised that Jenkins would find such a commission, she understood it when she thought that after the Ritter Award, young writers had become the hottest friends of almost all aristocratic girls.

"Of course, at least in terms of music, I am quite confident."

It was already late at night, and Hathaway came on foot, so Jenkins proposed to take her back. The means of transportation was naturally the skeleton horse. In order to prevent being witnessed, he also used the black mist necklace to summon black mist to wrap himself up.

In the foggy night, such a concealment method is quite effective.

But Jenkins has always had an inexplicable fate with the night. On the way back to St. George's Street, he unexpectedly ran into George Liverpool, the young man who tried to break into the club. Of course, he is also a distant relative of the former flower girl.

The location where he met him was in the middle of Queen's Avenue 5. The young man was wearing a black coat with a row of buttons buttoned tightly. He walked nervously against the wall with his head shrunk. It was obvious at a glance that he was different from Jenkins. This person was not used to traveling at night, and judging from his wealth, he was likely to suffer from night blindness.

Jenkins had just come out of the alley facing the street and was about to cross the cobblestone road to the other side of the street when he noticed his strange behavior.

Past experience told Jenkins that if he followed him at this time, there was a high probability that he would be forced to have an intersection with some troublesome things.

"It has nothing to do with me."

He suppressed his curiosity and said to himself, planning to walk on the street for a while and call out the horse when the young Liverpool walked away. But things would not go so smoothly. Soon, Jenkins found that Liverpool was walking in the same direction as himself.

At this moment, Jenkins was like a stalker, following the young man with his cat. He intended to change this situation, but he was unwilling to leave the closest way home.

After walking back and forth for ten minutes, Liverpool finally stopped in front of the old site of Apartment 431B on Queen's Road, passing by Dad's Antique Shop.

On a rainy night in late summer, a very bad robbery and murder occurred here, and then it collapsed due to the energy impact of the evil god statue. After several months of cleaning, the ruins of the collapsed building have been cleared. Because it is an excellent location facing the street, the real estate holders in this area quickly built new buildings.

But this time it is no longer a residential building. Dad said that the businessman has a serious cleanliness obsession, so he is unwilling to build the same building in a location where many people have died. Instead, it is a three-story shop in the architectural style of Dad's Antique Shop.

The first floor is used as a shop, and the second and third floors are rented to law firms or detective agencies.

Now the building has taken shape, and the brand new sign of the shop has been hung up. Mr. Liverpool stopped beside the side staircase of the building, walked along the red iron staircase to the second floor, took a few breaths, knocked on the door, looked behind him, and then walked in.

Chapter 515 Chapter 507 Robbers

The blue and red moon was mostly covered by dark clouds. Under the moon, Mr. Writer leaned against the wall and poked his head out of the shadow of the alley.

"Curiosity kills the cat!"

He whispered, causing Chocolate to strongly object.

"It has nothing to do with me!"

Even so, he still stopped there and didn't leave, but looked at the door curiously.

"But it's okay to take a look, right?"

Having found a reason to convince himself, he stopped struggling. After all, staying outdoors for a long time in this season is obviously not a good idea.

Blinked, and then raised his head again. The vision of the Eye of Truth penetrated the wall of the building and looked at the second floor, and a dazzling blue aura appeared in front of him.

From the shape, it seemed to be a-comb?

"Huh?"

What surprised him was not that he saw a special item but not the gifter, nor that he encountered a rare special item of a different species. The focus of his surprise was that this time he actually saw the shape of the aura very clearly.

You know, he is now across the street, looking at it from an oblique direction. Even if the Eye of Truth has changed again because of the level upgrade, it should not have such a clear effect.

He seemed to understand something, closed his right eye with a monocle and opened only his left eye. In his field of vision, there was a ball of blue aura whose shape could not be seen clearly.

"Sure enough, this pair of glasses can enhance the effect of the Eye of Truth. Can glasses-like items have such an ability?"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think again: "Then, if my glasses swallowed the same kind of items, would the enhancement of vision be more powerful?"

He immediately thought of his father who also had a Class B item in the shape of a monocle, which could assist his father's identification ability, but soon he felt that he was really crazy to think so.

"If I can tell fortunes, I can decide by flipping a coin now..."

He raised his head and continued to look there. The current situation is that there are only special items without a benefactor, which means that the danger is very small. But even if it is very small, this usually cautious person is still worried about whether he will get into trouble.

"Chocolate, what do you think?"

"Meow~"

The cat patted Jenkins' face with its paw, and had no intention of paying attention to him at all.

Seeing that the chain tied to Miss Miller's pocket watch did not move, he took a breath and stomped his feet in some entanglement:

"Well, why not try your luck!"

Thinking of this, he reached into his collar and took out the necklace that Miss Audrey gave him before going to Beldiran, which could change his luck.

There was a shell-shaped pendant at the end of the necklace. Jenkins threw it high and then closed his eyes and grabbed it back.

"If it is the front side of the palm, go and see it. If it is the back side, go home and sleep!"

After making up his mind, he turned over his palm and looked at it, then nodded and put on the black robe, and reached out and tapped the cat's head, and it obediently turned into a mixed-haired cat.

This time, the image is a young man of medium build but outstanding height. Judging from the clothes, he should also be of poor economic conditions, which is somewhat similar to Liverpool's clothes.

Because he didn't know what was going on above, he just crossed the street and stood in the shadow of the new store's sign. If he didn't observe it deliberately, it would be difficult to find that there was still a person standing here.

He didn't wait for long. After the minute hand of the pocket watch turned 13 small squares, he heard the harsh sound of the iron door scraping against the ground from above, followed by the sound of footsteps coming down the stairs.

Liverpool frowned and looked worried. He passed by Jenkins with a gun and didn't even notice him, which made Jenkins very embarrassed.

He had to walk out of the shadows and chase him, waiting for him to turn into the alley, then he took a few deep breaths to steady his breath, and then took a few quick steps to put the muzzle of the gun against the young man's waist.

"Robbery!"

"Don't kill me!"

Mr. Liverpool's reaction was much faster than Jenkins thought, and his hands were raised at an amazing speed.

"Wallet!"

"Here!"

His right hand quickly reached into his pocket and handed the shrunken wallet to Jenkins.

But Jenkins didn't want to rob, he knew he was a good man.

"So little, sir, have you given all your money to the girl in the Ecstasy Cave? Let me guess, Aunt Marietta in Chimney Lane over there?"

He didn't know who he was talking about, but fortunately Liverpool didn't know who it was either.

"No, I just... I don't have any money."

The tone was full of embarrassment, which reminded Jenkins of the days when his pockets were empty. He decided to end the conversation with this man as soon as possible and let him go home quickly.

The khaki purse tied with a rope was thrown to the ground with a snap, and the sound was crisp because it fell on the old newspaper.

"Then tell me, where can I get the money?"

"Oh, sir, I really don't have any money."

"I know, just look at your poor clothes. Tell me where you went just now, don't tell me that you went out so late to breathe fresh air!"

"No, oh, of course not, oh, sir... please."

"One..."

Pretending to be vicious, Jenkins found that he was really suitable for making such a sound.

"I said, I said, I just went to 431 Queen's Road!"

"That new store? Are you a thief who is scouting the place?"

"No, no, what's wrong with me... Sorry, I mean, I went to the second floor, Miss Samo's emotional counseling office!"

His voice was trembling, and Jenkins could imagine the horror on his face.

After saying sorry again in his heart, he continued to ask:

"Emotional counseling office? Oh, open in the middle of the night? You still say that it is not a ecstasy cave?"

"Really not, sir, please listen to me, I'm pursuing a girl recently..."

For ordinary people, the threat of guns is strong enough. Mr. Liverpool told what he knew like a bamboo tube pouring beans, and the truth was almost the same as Jenkins imagined. He had long guessed that sooner or later, he would encounter an incident of ordinary people abusing extraordinary items.

According to Liverpool, the owner of [Miss Samo's Emotional Counseling Office] is a woman as fat as a pig. She is naturally Miss Samo, who claims to have a "magic comb". Anyone who wraps his hair and the hair of the opposite sex around the teeth of the comb at the same time will fall hopelessly in love with each other.

The duration of the effect is related to the time the hair is wrapped, and Miss Samo uses this to make money. As for the purpose of Liverpool's late night visit, it is not difficult to guess.

PS: Miss Samo is a sensitive word, this sensitive word system is too sensitive...

In addition: The protagonist does not know how to dress up as a woman, so don't try this idea.

It was late at night, and no one knew about the crime that happened in the alley.
