The next day, Thursday, June 6th.
Jenkins boarded the train again with his family with a large bouquet of white flowers, which were so unremarkable in appearance that, although the behavior seemed odd, he was not questioned.
The train left the city and drove into the wilderness again. The white smoke pulled from the front whistle swayed on the train like a long dragon. The rattling wheels drove a group of people towards the west. As the sun shining on the roof of the car moved from the east to the center of the sky, and then to the west, Nolan City was getting closer.
Jenkins sat next to the window this time. He opened the car window and poked his head out in a very dangerous posture to look into the distance. The city shrouded in smog was in sight. He took a deep breath, hoping to smell the familiar burnt smell, which was the smell he was most familiar with after he came to this world.
The train arrived on time and on the hour. Nolan, who had been preparing for a week, showed the highest etiquette to receive visits from the royal family and foreign royal families. Even though today is a working day, many citizens have already spontaneously flocked around the station. They are standing in the decorated station and outside the cordon pulled up by the police officers at Carfax Field.
When the train pulled into the station with a huge roar, people cheered even louder than the explosion caused by the sudden cooling of the train's internal combustion engine.
Mr. Sachs Ruto, the mayor of rich stature, was wearing a wine-red suit. He stood with the officials and nobles of the city, waiting while wiping his sweat. As soon as the train stopped, most of the group began to adjust their clothes, cuffs and bow ties repeatedly. When the white steam around the carriage dissipated, the people in the carriage opened from the inside, and led by the mayor, a group of people walked to the platform.
In the carriage, Salhi II and Queen Isabella appeared at the door of the carriage almost at the same time.
Cheers came from around one after another, and the pigeons caught from nowhere were released collectively, flew over the train, and flew to a more distant coastline.
The reporters and assistants who had already been prepared lit up the flashlights, and the band in heavy uniforms who had been waiting for a long time began to play. It's just that no matter how hard the old man in the white wig waved his baton, the sound of the band couldn't cover the cheers of the citizens and the loud shouts of respect to the Queen.
It has been three years since Queen Isabella came to Nolan last time. People support their country's royal family and love Her Majesty the Queen, who has reigned for more than fifty years. In a way, this woman who does not have the blood of the Middleton family is actually more popular than most kings with royal blood.
The welcome ceremony at the station was just the beginning, and then the Jenkins family accompanied the Queen, and then went to the residence arranged by Nolan for the royal family. Today's activities are considered to be over.
But this is only the end of the William family. Queen Isabella and Salhi II will also attend banquets, give speeches, and be interviewed by reporters. important.
He temporarily said goodbye to Hathaway and Britney, and waved goodbye to Alexia and Dolores from afar, then hired a carriage to send his family back to Privet Drive, and then went back to the My family put down the luggage, and finally rushed to the Fifth Queen's Road with the cat who was so excited to go home.
Papa's antique shop is open, and Papa returned to the store directly after getting off the car. Excitedly pushing the door open, Jenkins couldn't help being intoxicated by the familiar sound of the bell.
"Finally home!"
He announced happily, walked quickly to the counter and rubbed it on the table excitedly, the chocolate also jumped to the cushion on the edge of the counter, patted it vigorously with his two little paws, and then lay down with a satisfied face. Come down, this is cats' exclusive spot in antique shops.
"Stop touching my counter, it makes you look like a psycho."
The old man who came from the backyard carrying a cardboard box said, but he was also very happy that Jenkins could come here as soon as he came back. He put down the cardboard box and pinched his waist to look at his store, and then suggested with a smile:
"If you have nothing else to do in the evening, join me in tidying up the store. It won't be long. I know you'll be going to church later. It hasn't been open for three weeks, but there's a layer of dust. Tomorrow we're officially open , I bought the batch of goods from the antique market, and I arrived in Nolan a few days ago, do you want to pick up the goods with me tomorrow?"
"Of course, of course."
Jenkins nodded quickly, he likes this kind of life, this is the place he is most familiar with. With a satisfied smile on his face, he took the rag handed by his father, turned around and looked at the shop full of antiques, and looked at the sunset street scene of Nolan in summer outside the window:
"This is my life."
It didn't take long to clean out the antique shop with Papa, then have dinner with the cat at a familiar nearby restaurant before heading to the Church of the Sages downtown. As soon as he stepped into the church, he saw Captain Bincy leading the team members out in a hurry. They were all acquaintances of Jenkins, and everyone was very happy that Jenkins returned smoothly.
Then I saw Bishop Parode, who was preaching to the congregation. He stood behind the pulpit and winked at Jenkins, talking non-stop about what he had been talking about for more than thirty years.
Seeing that Bishop Parode was in good health and looking good, Jenkins nodded to him in response, then walked around the corridor, greeted the familiar priests and nuns, and came to the courtyard behind. After looking around but not seeing Fei Ni, she walked towards Miss Bevanna's office.
After knocking on the door lightly, she pushed the door open after getting permission to enter. Miss Bevanna sat behind her desk and just looked up and saw Jenkins:
"Oh, Jenkins, you're finally back."
She took off her glasses with a smile, got up and walked to Jenkins, hugged him before beckoning him to sit down:
"I thought you wouldn't arrive until tomorrow. You were just preparing to welcome the negotiating team from Beldyran."
Although there is also a Sage Church in the local area, and there are many capable people in the local area, but because of the need for talks and negotiations with believers in lies, the Holy See still sent a delegation to Nolan. Mr. Johnson Gilbert and another cardinal who Jenkins is not familiar with will be sent later, and they are just the first batch.
"I just came to the church to have a look first. After all, I have been away for two months."
So he said, and then asked:
"How's the parish of Norland? Has anything important happened?"
