"What a horrible man."
The bald old man commented on Jenkins, and the pure black hand behind his back stretched out to him again. Jenkins instinctively wanted to avoid it, but he knew it was a necessary process, so he didn't move.
Afterwards, he had another blank bubble again, which meant that besides [The Uncrowned King], now he even had a chance to think about [Blessing of Books].
If it wasn't for Miss Windsor by his side, he really wanted to come here with more people, and no one would say no to the blank ability bubble.
Because there was no Miss Windsor in the last world, Miss Windsor has nothing to gain. Miss Magic gained an ability related to flames, because she personally burned her own body.
Although Jenkins also burned "his own" corpse, people cannot be generalized, so the gains of the two are not the same.
The third door was pulled open by the black hand, and as expected, there was still the section of St. George's Avenue where Papa's antique shop was located. The weather was gloomy, and the streets were filled with thick fog, which was not at all different from the real world. There were no pedestrians on the street, only a torn newspaper rolled on the side of the street with the wind and fog.
"Let me emphasize that."
Before setting off, Jenkins said to his companions:
"The following world will definitely not have 'I', and no matter what life trajectory you two have in this world, remember, this has nothing to do with the real you."
This sentence was mainly addressed to Miss Windsor, she also realized this, gave a soft "hmm" and raised her head to look at Jenkins:
"Can you answer me a question? In your eyes, what kind of person am I? Needless to say, I want to know my shortcomings."
The words of the different-looking Jessica Windsor just now made Miss Windsor wonder if she was really who she thought she was. It was a very philosophical question, and she couldn't solve it herself, so she asked Jenkins for help.
"shortcoming?"
Jenkins thought for a while:
"Although independent, sometimes you are not strong enough. You have experienced some hardships, but you have not experienced too many setbacks, so your spirit is not strong enough."
He is telling the truth.
"Then do you think I'm a good person or a bad person? Do I use any means to achieve my goals?"
"Absolutely not. If you were, you should have supported me to directly kill Queen Isabella."
He looked at Miss Magic and motioned for her to say something too. But the woman just looked at the two, interested in the conversation, and didn't intend to participate in it herself.
"Well, after we go out, I will teach you the basic knowledge of the bestower, and help you take a good look at the world. The bestower has a unique way of knowing yourself, and you will understand when you go further. How superfluous to worry today."
Jenkins smiled at her, trying to put Miss Windsor at ease:
"Besides, you are worried now, doesn't it mean that you are a good person? An outright bad person doesn't care what kind of person you are."
He smiled very gently, probably because he seldom laughed all the time, and he always kept a serious look on weekdays. This expression surprised Miss Windsor for a moment.
She blushed suddenly, turned her head and stopped staring at Jenkins:
"I see, let's go."
So the three of them stepped over the door frame again and entered the last test of this treacherous realm.
The smell in the air is exactly the same as reality. This world without Jenkins is very similar to the world of strangers.
With no other goals, the three of them went directly to Papa's antique shop as before. The inside of the store is still exactly the same as the first two possibilities, and the old man also uses the same sentence to welcome the three guests who appeared on this boring evening, and even when the three of them come in, he holds the newspaper in exactly the same way.
This time, there was no wanted criminal breaking into the door again, but before Jenkins said he wanted to buy Dad's newspaper, a carriage stopped in front of the antique shop.
Jenkins turned his head and saw Hathaway and Britney getting out of the carriage, so he immediately turned to look at the antique shelf where the vases were placed. Of course he knew these were fakes, but it was better to stare at them than at familiar strangers.
"Oh, here you are."
Seeing that the three customers who entered the door were still looking around, the old man greeted the other two ladies familiarly. Hathaway and Britney also greeted Dad politely, and after Hathaway whispered something, Dad opened the door to the backyard, allowing the two to enter the backyard, while he greeted the other three .
"We buy this."
Jenkins picked up an enamel doll and signaled his companions not to wander around with his eyes. After paying, they left like normal guests, but turned around and walked into the alley again.
"You wait for me here, I will go to Dad's backyard to see what they are here for."
He said to Miss Magic and Miss Windsor, and the two ladies would naturally not object.
So Jenkins turned from the alley to the roof of the building next door with ease, and then came to the top of the antique shop in a roundabout way. When jumping down, it is very convenient to directly transform into a mouse and sneak into the backyard, but because when dealing with the big snake, he has already used the ability of transfiguration once.
Therefore, at this moment, he can only take the risk of approaching the warehouse from the side wall, put his ears on the wall, close his other senses, and let his hearing be brought into full play. In this way, you can barely listen to the next conversation.
Britney was not indoors, she had returned to the antique shop, as if on the lookout. Only Hathaway and Dad were talking in the warehouse. Although the content of the conversation was unexpected, after the previous two incidents, Jenkins has adapted to the occurrence of various things.
"You refused?"
"Yes, although Her Majesty the Queen really likes me, I can't do anything to offend Britney... I'm sorry, Dad, I didn't complete the task assigned by the church."
Hathaway said with some guilt, Jenkins, who was trying to eavesdrop, didn't have the heart to make a surprised expression, but Jenkins actually thought he understood what he just said.
"Jessica Windsor is very good to me, and she really likes me from the bottom of her heart. Arranging me by her side can indeed better spy on the news of 'Great Wisdom', but I can't do that, sorry. "
She said again that although there was a bit of shame on her face, Jenkins, who knew Hathaway well, understood that she actually firmly believed that she was doing the right thing.
"Hathaway, my apprentice, you don't have to say that, I knew from the beginning that you couldn't do this kind of thing, otherwise you wouldn't be you."
Dad comforted.
In this world without Jenkins, it seems that the role played by Jenkins has been divided up by some people he knows well. But Jenkins really didn't see that Miss Windsor also had that tendency.
