"Can we leave?"
Seeing the exit, Jenkins turned around and asked the old man. The sudden wind blew his beard up, but he didn't mind at all.
"Can."
"Can the remaining plants be taken away?"
He pointed to the remaining plants on the table, and added, "If I let them all grow, too."
Miss Kingsley stood up with Miss Miller's support, and pulled Jenkins' clothes a little uneasily.
"M. Poirot..."
Maybe she thought Jenkins was being greedy, but Jenkins was well aware that the rules of the Paradise were like that. Better performance deserves better pay.
To everyone's surprise, the old man, who had been maintaining one movement, slowly bent down and made a bow-like movement.
There was a bang in the air, and after a brief sound, the oil lamp in his hand exploded into pieces. Three green seeds flew out from the last flame, and landed between everyone's eyebrows one by one.
"I have an extra blank ability position."
exclaimed Miss Kingsley.
Jenkins and Miss Miller, who were used to seeing big scenes, were not so surprised. What they were concerned about was why the old man gave the reward directly before Jenkins took action
I didn't want to think about it so much. Although the excitement made Miss Kingsley regain some energy for a short time, she soon became depressed again.
Jenkins held the flower pots, Miss Miller helped the girl, and the three of them walked into the gate one by one.
An old sigh came from the dark room. There was no one beside the table, but the six flower pots left on the table were filled again.
There was a gap in the wall facing the gate suddenly. No masonry can be seen inside the gap, only dense golden and black runes overlapping each other.
A round green bead fell out of the gap, and the emerald green surface reflected the white light from the doorway.
Due to the force of the fall, it continued to roll forward after it hit the ground. Then, following the footsteps of the three of them, they entered another world.
The light gate disappeared, and in the dark space, only plants were swaying gently.
"Meow~"
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the alley, and Julia held the handkerchief in both hands and looked at the wall anxiously.
The cat on the roof refused to come down after calling for several times, but at this moment it suddenly let out a cry, and then jumped down.
And at this moment, the man seemed to step out of the void. He didn't even need to raise his head when he heard the cat meowing. He turned sideways and let the cat lightly land on his shoulder.
The clothes on his body were messy, and his two strong, white arms were exposed in the snow. Although I don't know why they are holding so many flowerpots, and I don't know why cats can predict the appearance of men in advance, but Julia can't control so much.
"Miss!"
She jumped out of the carriage and ran towards the three of them.
I don't know how long it has been outside, but the snow can already pass over my feet.
In the carriage, Jenkins and Miss Miller sat in one row, Julia and Miss Kingsley on the other. Opposite Jenkins was the young lady, both of them stretched out their hands to hold each other, the green breath poured out of Jenkins, and then entered Miss Kingsley's body through the intertwined arms.
The ability after evolution is no longer only able to heal physical damage, it can even cure anemia.
The man was wearing a small lady's trench coat with sterling silver buttons and some tassel decorations. The windbreaker couldn't cover the arms, and the fair skin made the three ladies present feel ashamed.
Miss Kingsley, who looked a little better, seemed to want to express some opinions on Jenkins' skin problem, but Julia, who knew her character well, stopped her with her eyes.
When he boarded the carriage just now, Jenkins subconsciously put his hand into his pocket, and touched a strange ball without accident. It feels like glass, but it's not cold but warm.
Since it is in the projection state at this time, the bead is still in the pocket at this time.
"about there."
He let go of the hand he held with Miss Kingsley, and let out a long breath. Using abilities in this state consumes too much spirit. If he hadn't obtained a new spirit through the strange environment, he would hardly be able to hold on.
"Thanks you."
The girl also withdrew her hand, her face flushed slightly. It was the first time for her to have such an intimate activity with a strange man, but seeing that the man on the other side didn't show a strange expression at all, she felt that she was being self-indulgent.
"Thank you very much this time, Miss Miller, M. Poirot."
She once again solemnly thanked, "You will be friends of the Kingsley family forever."
"It's nothing, but please don't do such dangerous things in the future. Next time, no one may be able to save you."
Miss Miller warned with a stern face that her goal of establishing an intimate relationship with the girl in front of her had almost been achieved.
Dolores Stuart showed an embarrassed expression, looked down at the six pots of flowers, and without hesitation, picked three of the flowers of the spirit, and handed two of them to Jenkins and Miss Miller.
The two looked at each other for a while, and there was no politeness, and then they put the petals in their mouths.
Compared with the white flowers that Jenkins ate once, the taste of the Spirit Flower was much better.
"It's a little sweet, and it doesn't turn your stomach when you eat it."
Of course, the spirit it can increase cannot compare to the flowers of the flower girl. But anyway, it's for nothing, so there's no need to complain.
Chocolate has been lying on Jenkins' lap, staring at the flower pots under everyone's feet. Jenkins knew what the greedy cat was thinking, so he kept stroking it with his hands, in fact to prevent the cat from escaping.
"This is the first time I have experienced a strange situation. This kind of place is really too dangerous."
"Yes, even a demigod may die in a strange environment, but the harvest is always satisfactory."
Miss Kingsley nodded, seeing that there were only two flowers left in the pot, fortunately she bent down and picked them all.
One handed to his maid:
"Julia, will you accompany me on this difficult road?"
Her expression was serious, and Jenkins couldn't judge whether it was right or wrong to do so.
Fortunately, he turned his head to the direction of the window, looking at the dark street and the exotic street scene. Although it is snowing, the moonlight can still shine down. This city of ice and snow is very beautiful, at least on the avenue.
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the two women opposite him.
Julia nodded firmly, stuffed the black petals into her mouth, and swallowed them with exaggerated movements.
