C-03-0921 Alexia didn't mention the method of using [Silver Key] to Jenkins until the end, and I don't know if she forgot to explain it or didn't say it on purpose.
It's just that the [Silver Key] reminded Jenkins of the secret key that caused Dad to be cursed with immortality. He heard about Dad's story two weeks ago from his senior sister, Ms. Stillwell, but because of Still Miss Vail didn't want anyone else to know about it, so Jenkins never told anyone about it.
"So among the key-like monsters, are there any well-known ones, such as only the owner can know the specific information, or the key itself has a terrible curse?"
He asked vaguely, but he didn't have much hope, because Miss Stewell had been looking for it for so many years, and she wasn't even sure if the key owned by the old man had ever been recorded by the church.
"Key-type tricks usually have similar effects, and the more famous ones are A-12-1-0399 [Ancient Key of the Dead], A-10-1-0286 [Keeper of the Forbidden Book], A-02- 1-0214 [The Lock and Key of the Heart], which one do you want to ask?"
Alexia asked curiously, thinking that Jenkins wanted to learn more. Jenkins gave up after asking a few simple questions. These are obviously different from the manifestation of the curse on the old man.
And so comes Tuesday, the 23rd day of April. The temperature in Ruen has risen obviously, and more than half a month has passed since the Ice and Snow Festival riots, and the ice in the city has gradually begun to melt. Even in the northern country, there is already a breath of spring, but spring will not last long, because in the middle and late May, summer is coming soon.
After breakfast, he was called to the Church of Loen again. It wasn't that there was another accident in the Parish of Loen, but that the old man contacted Jenkins again through the Basin of Delusion.
First of all, of course, he told him what happened to Nolan last night. After receiving Jenkins' surprise, the father asked Jenkins cryptically, what kind of progress he had made in studying divination with Miss Audrey.
"Actually, there is no progress. My divination level is actually very bad."
He honestly replied that this was one of the few extraordinary skills he could not master.
"You have to remember that you are a believer of a sage, and don't be deceived by other heretics."
The old man said that this sentence was not cryptic at all, he was worried that Miss Audrey would use the name of teaching to try to change Jenkins' belief.
"I know, please rest assured, Miss Audrey means that kind of person, and I'm not stupid..."
Jenkins said helplessly, and then asked himself again when he could return to Nolan. He didn't dislike Ruen, but Nolan was the hometown of this body after all.
"Have you stayed in Loen enough? I think you should enjoy the days when you don't have to go to work when you live in the royal princess's house."
Pop wondered, which Jenkins thought was ironic.
"I miss Papa's Antiques."
He replied like this, and his father commented that his flattering skills were poor.
Today's Nolan is a sunny day, and spring has reached its most prosperous moment. The favorite season of the original owner Jenkins is Nolan at this time. The breath of spring is full of the city. Even the faint burning smell in the air can't stop the exuberant vitality and lead people to welcome the embrace of spring.
This is true in the city, but the end of April in the countryside is even more beautiful. Flowers bloom in the fields, and small trees stand tall in the countryside. There was a lot of life everywhere, and even the unicorns in the sky were excited by the sight of spring.
Only the lazy cat chocolate still looks lazy, and there is no sign that the cat will go to bed in spring. Jenkins was worried about its poor health for a while, but after consulting the old Jack through letters, he learned that the young animal cubs would indeed experience growth retardation after taking the [Animal Wisdom Apocalypse Potion], so he didn't need to worry.
The town of Roman in Sandwell County is not a very prosperous town. It retains a rural way of life. In Jenkins' view, it is a suitable place for retirement.
The town is not big but very beautiful, because it is located in the south of Nolan, avoiding the influence of the special monsoon climate caused by the Seebeck Mountains, the town at the end of April is already full of flowers.
The main area of the town consists of only five horizontal and three vertical blocks, and beyond that is complete countryside.
Jenkins landed in a field not far from the town, walked with the cat for ten minutes into the town, and because he was a stranger, he was interrogated for a long time by the police chief investigating the murder at the entrance of the town before letting him go.
When he learned that he was visiting the Viscount Franka, the middle-aged sheriff with thinning hair kindly told him that the Franka family had moved to their ancestral house in the country two weeks ago, and now the only house in the city is The servants who stayed behind to watch the house and clean the house.
"The small manor is near Xiawading Village, not far from here."
The sheriff wrote the address and note to Jenkins in the notepad he carried:
"Viscount Franke likes to be visited by people. Even if the person is a stranger, if you can catch up with lunch, he will definitely treat you to dinner."
Xiawading Village is located in the southeast of the town, and there is a small country road connecting the town. Jenkins hired a buggy and saw the village in half an hour. Because of the address given by the sheriff, the coachman did not continue along the road into the village, but turned right into the path covered with sparse grass, and soon saw the desolate manor standing in the shadow of the hill .
Even though the weather is pretty good today, and the countryside is even more sunny, but because the manor is completely covered by the shadow of the hills and the surrounding scenery is desolate, people still unconsciously think of those horror stories.
The coachman who brought Jenkins said that although he often came to the neighborhood, he had never noticed that there was a small estate here.
Because the road ahead was difficult, the carriage did not send Jenkins to the gate of the manor, but put him down.
The building in front of you can tell that it has been a few years. The stone wall outside the manor has been dyed green by creepers, and the path connecting the country road has been buried in the weeds, and only a small section was cleared before the gate.
A crooked wooden sign stood at the gate of the manor, with the words [Private Territory, Vicious Dogs] on it, but Jenkins doubted that anyone would come to such a remote place.
He looked at the door for a while, but he didn't see anything like a bell. So I stood on tiptoe at the door and looked inward, trying to see if anyone in the manor could find someone at the door, but there was no one in the courtyard.
