"Father agreed to the request of my sister and her friends to travel to Belduran, but in my opinion, my sister must have gone to Belduran to meet William."
This was the view of Hathaway's younger brother, and before that, Hathaway had never revealed that she was coming to Beldyran. Jenkins, considering how little he could read the girls' minds, thought they might have come to Beldyran to surprise him.
So Xiao Hesha forgot this memory, and then came to Privet Drive, wanting to see how the family members are doing recently. Unexpectedly, there is no one at home. Even if it is daytime on a weekday, it is impossible for there to be no one at home.
Later, I learned from the neighbor who helped take care of the house that the Williams family had set off for a vacation to Beldyland a few days ago.
"I remember that I received a letter from Robert yesterday, saying that I would like to enjoy myself in Beldyland, and reminded me to help Little John buy the fountain pen he had wanted for a long time when I returned to Nolan... He didn't mention everyone I went to Beldyran..."
Jenkins, who lost again, had no intention of returning to Beldyran for the time being. Since the girls and his family were not there, he turned back to Fifth Queen's Road near the dock area, wanting to see how his father was doing.
"As expected, Dad wasn't there either."
Jenkins, dressed in black, stood in front of the antique store, which was locked and the windows boarded up. Pretending to be a guest, she inquired about Aunt Sally, who was selling small jewelry next door, and learned that her father left for Beldylan three days ago to pick up a batch of very important goods.
"Old Oliver said it was the biggest deal he would ever make in his life, and he had to go to Beldyran himself."
said Aunt Sally, and took the opportunity to sell her little souvenirs to Jenkins.
"Why did I go to Beldylan, no matter how dull I am, I can still feel that something is wrong... Strange..."
Jenkins was puzzled and stood on the street with his cat, not knowing where he should go for a while. While walking and thinking about things, before I knew it, I came to the vicinity of the school where the professor works.
Thinking that he hadn't visited the professor for a while, he broke into the school over the wall and saw him in the professor's office.
"Very well, it is very kind of you not to go to Beldyran."
When he saw Professor Burns, he said very happily.
"Hey, why am I going to Beldylan? Jenkins, shouldn't you be in Beldylan? Why did you come back without authorization?"
The professor was very happy to see Jenkins. It happened that he had no class this afternoon and had time to chat with Jenkins. The professor was not very clear about his father's sudden trip to Beldyran. He had heard his father say that he was going to take a long trip to do important things a few days ago, but he didn't expect to go to the capital.
"This is also a good thing, maybe you can still meet Dad in Beldyran."
The professor said that Jenkins thought he would be able to meet him, and he instinctively thought that everyone going to Beldylan must have something to do with him.
Putting the cat on the table and letting it play by itself, Jenkins has decided to spend this afternoon with the professor. The professor was also happy to have someone to chat with him, so he chatted with Jenkins about his travel anecdotes and what happened to Nolan recently.
Until five o'clock in the afternoon, the two of them chatted about the professor's research and work recently. The professor slapped his head and remembered a very important thing:
"The matter you asked me to investigate last time has made a lot of progress. It was absolutely accidental. I cooperated with a woman nicknamed Miss Magic to analyze a batch of stone records from the ancient elf kingdom, and then compared them with the modern ones. Comparing the aristocratic families, we discovered something remarkable."
Jenkins once asked Professor to investigate a lot of things, such as the world outside the material world, such as the "Moon of Flowing Fire", such as the origin of the ancient god of death and the contemporary god of death, but most of these things have no context, after all, it is not a few weeks Time will be able to find out. These topics are enough for a researcher to explore for a lifetime, and Jenkins never thought that the professor could give him a definite answer.
"What did you find out?"
Jenkins put down the teacup he was holding and asked curiously. At this time, the sun was setting outside the window, and the golden glow coming in from the window made Jenkins, the professor, and the cat on the table all seem to be gilded with gold.
Chocolate lay down next to Jenkins' cup and opened one eye to look at him, the moment she'd been waiting for a long time.
"In the long past, there was a large-scale intermarriage between humans and elves. Among them, the blood of the elf royal family appeared in the human race. The human family with this blood has been multiplied to this day, and it is the oldest noble surname in contemporary times. And This bloodline is not just as simple as the elves' royal family, they are also the priests of the legendary World Tree, the most noble among the elves. To be honest, I really don't understand why such a bloodline would spread to humans."
Jenkins sat up straight in shock when he heard this, and his eyes looked at the professor as if they were shining. The professor was very uncomfortable with his gaze, which gave him a lot of pressure.
"What did you find? Which surname is it now, and retains this bloodline?"
The answer he had been searching for for a long time was right in front of him, and it appeared in this boring evening on a day that made him feel so boring. There was no sense of ceremony at all, and it was not as difficult as Jenkins imagined, as if mocking his efforts all the time.
He already felt that his breath was short of breath, and the professor was a little hairy from his stare, but he continued:
"The blood of the World Tree priest in the elf royal family is around us, and we can even see it in newspapers every day. Yes, it is the royal family Middleton family. They are one of the few families that retain the ancient elf blood. In fact, now Thinking about it, this is not completely unexpected. It is easy to find that the successive kings of Fidetictli lived very long and rarely suffered from serious illness. I think this is the evidence that the elven blood still remains in this family …Jenkins, you have a strange expression on your face…”
It took Jenkins a long time to realize that he was opening his mouth slightly, and after closing his mouth, the news he heard from the professor was repeated in his heart over and over again.
This is reasonable, and I can understand many things that I could not understand before. Those true lies, those concealments and the truth on top of the truth...
PS: From a long time ago, it was decided that Jenkins was destined to get the answer from Professor Burns. Of all the people around Jenkins, the professor was the only one who had absolutely no bearing on whether he became king or not. Moreover, as a teacher, it is very reasonable for the professor to be the person who answers Jenkins' questions.
