The Master of the Strange Realm

Jenkins shouted loudly to the red-haired girl, who waved to him and returned to the house. There was no worry that Hathaway would eavesdrop, because Miss Bevanna had already thrown a Silence Charm.

"Jenkins, I heard some things from dad. If you like that girl, I don't think you have to worry about any obstacles. The church will help you solve all troubles."

"Dad asked you to say it again?"

Jenkins could completely imagine what his father would look like when he talked about this. Even that voice seemed to appear in his ears. He had heard too many similar words.

"No."

The woman's fingers waggled slightly: "This is just my personal opinion. Your age has exceeded the average marriage age in the Kingdom of Fidicli. Your mother should have said this."

"Yeah, she talks about it every time she sees me."

Jenkins rarely discusses his marriage with others because he considers his career to be more important. Once you succeed, everything you want will be at your fingertips.

This was the first time he had seriously discussed this topic with Miss Bevanna, and he suddenly wanted to hear what this woman, who looked no more than thirty years old, thought about it.

"You like men?"

Miss Bevanna guessed again.

"No, of course not."

Jenkins was startled by this statement, and now that the wind and snow were so loud, he didn't notice the laughter of the cat at his feet.

"It's okay if it's not. Although the church does not object or support it, as the Holy Son, we still hope that you can be 'normal'. Those nobles have inherited some bad habits, and we don't want you to get into those bad habits. "

She looked at Jenkins with a smile, and suddenly leaned forward, her lips almost hitting Jenkins' face. The man blushed and took a step back, almost falling into the hot spring again.

"Now I can confirm that what you like is indeed a woman."

This joke was extremely bad, because the two of them just barely missed kissing each other. Maybe people of the same age can do this, but from the perspective of their relationship, they shouldn't have such close contact.

"Of course I like women."

He blushed and defended, wondering what Miss Bevanna's intention was just now.

"I didn't confirm this until just now."

She waved her jade-like fingers in the air twice, seeming to find Jenkins' reaction interesting. Seeing that Jenkins was embarrassed and didn't know what to say, he waved goodbye to him:

"Since you want to leave with your friends, I will go back first. Jenkins, I wish you a smooth trip and see you Nolan."

After saying that, regardless of Jenkins' reaction, she took out the book she always carried with her from the air, opened one of the pages, and closed it with a snap. As the sound disappeared into the air, the woman's figure also disappeared.

"Are all women today so weird?"

Jenkins was left standing alone in the snow wondering.

Chapter 708 Chapter 695 Fatal Questions and Answers (8/10)

Just like Miss Bevanna's prediction, the rescue team made a large circle from outside the mountain and entered the avalanche area early the next morning. But they didn't see the servants who went out to ask for help. It was just that people outside the mountain noticed that the tour group that was supposed to show up did not return to the town, so they notified the rescue team to set off.

On the way into the mountains, the rescue team found two servants who had died of heart attacks and had been frozen into popsicles. But Jenkins didn't think it was a coincidence that the two would die on the road at the same time from heart disease. It is very likely that Quik has mastered the ability of the curse [Heartbleed Rupture] just to prevent people outside the mountain from interfering with his actions.

With the sapphire as big as a human head, the thousand-year-old tree heart chopped off by a small axe, the remaining leg of the puppet and the [spiritual wreckage] soaked in the spirit, Jenkins and the remaining friends embarked on the journey back to their hometown. road.

Although only one of the seven people in the tour group died, almost all the people in the villa were wiped out. All six of them planned to send a generous pension to the dead people after returning to Nolan, which was the only remaining mercy.

It took another two days on the journey, and when the steam train was about to arrive in Nolan City, it was already late Friday night.

The weather was very good, and the two magical moons could be seen through the car window. Jenkins suddenly missed Nolan City and the peaceful life.

When they returned to the city, the carriage for six people was the top-notch VIP carriage. This was the compensation given to them by the Mandela family, the owners of the villa. After all, everyone encountered such terrible things when they lived there, and among the staff of the villa there was a murderer from half a century ago. This is an absolute scandal.

Everyone has their own box. Jenkins just came to the corridor to take a look at the scenery because he was a little unable to sleep.

It won't be easy for him after returning to Nolan. He still has a lot to do recently. The party between Mr. Hood and Mr. Corpse is about to begin. As for Roen, he has also promised Miss Stuart to participate in the royal hunt. Dad plans to increase the number of learning courses at the beginning of the new year, and Jenkins himself is also worried about not being able to do so. Use tadpole writing again.

But fortunately, he has newly obtained [Ectoplasm Remains]. Maybe he can use this as an excuse to declare that he will be promoted again next month.

"Isn't it too fast..."

he muttered.

"What's too fast?"

Miss Michael's voice came from behind. Wearing only a thin nightgown, she leaned against the door and looked at Jenkins. Because this carriage is completely sealed and has heating, it shouldn't be cold at all.

"I mean, we're going back to Nolan so soon. Why, can't you sleep either?"

"Yeah, I can't sleep a little. Oh, I have to apologize, Jenkins. I'm really sorry. I invited you to this trip, but I didn't expect so many things to happen. But I really can't imagine how terrible our trip would be if I hadn't invited you."

"Don't thank me or apologize, Miss Michael. Fate has already made all the arrangements."

When the man said this, the moonlight sprinkled on his face, which made Jenkins feel quite sacred at this time.

"Then, call me Britney directly in the future, and call Hathaway by her name when you see her. I think we are good friends and don't need to be so polite."

The blonde girl leaned against the door frame with one hand, fiddling with the ends of her hair. This scene was a little tempting to Jenkins, but he knew the relationship between Miss Michael and Hathaway.

"Okay... Britney."

He said softly.

One of the major criticisms of steam trains is that they are not stable when running, especially at the joints of the rails. The clang-clang sound was regular in the ear, and it would be annoying after a long time.

The man and the woman listened to this sound in silence for a while, and Britney suddenly asked:

"You like Hathaway, right?"

Woo~

As soon as the voice fell, the whistle of the car in the distance suddenly sounded. If the other person spoke at this time, he would definitely not hear anything, so Jenkins had a reasonable reason to remain silent.

He didn't know what Britney wanted to do by asking this question at this time, obviously the two were still talking about other things at the last moment.

Moreover, no matter what the reason, this question should not be asked by the blonde girl in front of him. She should understand that Jenkins didn't want to interfere with their relationship. In this case, why did he expose it?

Time will not stand still, and the whistle will eventually be silent. When the sound stopped, only the shadows of the two people were still shaking in the corridor filled with moonlight, and there was extreme silence after excessive noise.

"Should I lie?"

Jenkins asked himself.

Whether he lied or not, he had the power to make Britney believe that it was the truth. But he hated to do this. Once it happened, he would make all kinds of repairs for the lies, and even affect his normal life.

The three of them would torture each other in this entangled relationship until tragedy or miracle happened.

"Should I tell the truth?"

No matter what the truth in his heart was, the next answer would break a girl's heart. He had made countless critical choices in this world, but only this time he didn't know how to choose.

Even [Unknown Road Ahead] would not give him guidance, which was something that fate could not control.

Jenkins wished that the moonlight sprinkled on him could completely hide himself. For a moment, he really had the shameful idea of ​​escaping.

"I..."

He opened his mouth and spit out a word, and saw the blonde girl still playing with the ends of her hair. She was beautiful, and she looked even more beautiful in pajamas.

"So do you like me, Jenkins?"

Bryony Jane Michael had already made up her mind. The choice of cake that night made her understand what she should really do.

The train passed through the bridge hole, and darkness enveloped everything in the carriage. Jenkins stood in silence without a word, and he couldn't answer this question either.

When the moonlight reappeared, the blonde had retreated to her room, but her shirt had slipped off.

The two looked at each other in silence, and the silence even made the cat peeking through the crack in the door yawn.

"Sorry, I don't understand what you mean."

He should perhaps act more manly, but he also didn't want to lose his precious friendship. Although the friendship might have ended from just now.

"I like you, Jenkins Williamette. Now please come in, do you understand?"

Chapter 709 Chapter 696 Looney's Tavern (9/10)

The trembling voice made a brave invitation, and the cunning moonlight made Jenkins unable to see her eyes clearly. He really wanted to know the real thoughts in the woman's heart through those beautiful eyes.

Although, [Lie] didn't even move, which already showed that every word just now was true.

The man shook his head, slowly, from bottom to top, imprinted Britney's body in his eyes. He walked quickly into the room, picked up the clothes on the ground, and helped her put them on.

The whistle sounded again, and the two people facing each other looked into each other's eyes. Jenkins smelled the familiar perfume and saw hesitation and determination; Britney smelled the breath on the man and saw hesitation and determination.

"Your eyes are beautiful, Britney. They tell me that what happened tonight is not just because of love."

"Don't blame me, Jenkins."

"I may be like a star in your night sky, but you still have your own moon, don't you? That moon is also my star, and you... are also my star. My night sky is originally dim, and I don't want to lose this few lights."

"Jenkins~"

She reached out and hugged the man in front of her. Jenkins held his breath to prevent his disordered breathing from being noticed.

"A woman's body is not a tool to achieve her goals. Brienne, I swear, if we were strangers, I would not refuse your invitation."

He kept holding his breath and gently pushed the woman away, then kissed her on the forehead:

"I am Jenkins Willamette, the Jenkins you know. I guess if I accept your invitation, then I will no longer be your star."

"Jenkins..."

Britney was trying not to cry. Tonight's decision came partly from my father's choice, but mostly from my own courage. She considered what happened next, without guessing that Jenkins would cover her.

In twenty years of life, this is the most peculiar man she has ever known.

"Nothing happened tonight, have a sweet dream!"

"Sweet dreams."

Women return as well.

When the man turned to leave, the moonlight filled the corridor again. The woman held the buttons of her clothes and felt that the star named Jenkins Williams was emitting as much light as the moon——

Like the purple star in the sky.

He walked quickly back to his room, not even paying attention to his cat. Sitting on the edge of the bed, Jenkins' body started shaking as if he was having a seizure. The few minutes just now felt like years had passed, and Jenkins himself was not sure whether he would make different choices if he lived through it again.

"Oh, sage~"

He groaned softly and covered his face, feeling that he couldn't control his shaking body and limbs. He wasn't sure whether it was excitement or fear, maybe a little of both. The various feelings in his heart were indescribable. He had never faced such a situation in his two lives.

The image of the blond girl under the moonlight popped up in front of me again, and this time even my heart was trembling.

"Oh, my God~"

He was just a little bit unable to resist the temptation, but fortunately his strong self-control helped a lot at the last moment, otherwise he might not have spent the night in his box tonight.

I sat on the edge of the bed and calmed down for a while, but I still couldn't help but think about what I had just seen. I felt something touching my knees, and when I looked down I saw the chocolate tail waving back and forth.

"No, I need to find something to do."

He regretted his rejection just now, but he thought he had done the right thing and he was still an upright person. Feeling that I might not be able to sleep tonight, I decided to visit my friends.

Lying flat on the bed and closing his eyes, his consciousness appeared in distant Loen. There were no lights on in the room, and it was unusually deserted. Although the servants clean the place every day, it seems that Alexia still hasn't returned.

"Where has she gone? Is she going to be in trouble?"

Jenkins thought a little annoyed.

Holding the chocolate and pushing open the door, he avoided the night patrol servants and entered the city. It's still snowing in Loon, and according to Miss Stuart, winter in the city won't end until at least the end of April.

Being blown by the cold wind, my restless heart calmed down a little. The steam train he took would arrive at Nolan Station in about three hours. Before that, he planned to visit the royal capital of the North Kingdom to stay away from those troublesome women.

Alexia once introduced this strange city in detail. Apart from the exotic atmosphere, this place is very similar to Nolan. For example, if a pub is still open late at night and a drunk man is vomiting on the roadside, if he is brave enough and dares to go deep into those dark alleys, the probability of encountering a robber or a prostitute is about the same.

She also led Jenkins to visit the city's Black Market of Givers, but Jenkins was not interested in doing that kind of thing tonight. He was feeling a little irritable now and just wanted to find a place to spend his time quietly.

Alexia would put some domestic currency in a drawer in her bedroom for Jenkins who might come over to take it at will. Neither of them cares much about money, because Jenkins knows that his friend is very, very, very rich, and Alexia also knows that Jenkins holds a big treasure near Belduran. (Chapter 504)

Since you have money in your hands, it is a good idea to spend time in a pub. Of course, this is also done with skill. Most of the pubs near the main roads are very formal, and there are very few rude and illegal people inside. After all, the police officers on patrol may also have a drink after work. And if you want to find businessmen who engage in smuggling and contraband trading, or spend the night with a beautiful girl at a cheap price, you not only need luck, but you also need to go deeper into the city.

There was no way Jenkins was going to a tavern that smelled so bad with a cat accompanying him. He walked in the snow for a while and found a tavern that was still open at the end of an alleyway of a shopping street called Singer Avenue.

The name of the tavern [Alarsa] cannot find a suitable explanation in modern common language. It seems to be a pure accumulation of letters. Jenkins originally thought that the tavern owner had spelled it wrong, and therefore guessed that the decoration inside was also rough, but when he entered the door, he saw a decoration style like a forest cabin.

This gave Jenkins a feeling of returning home and made him feel better again.
