A shilling note brought a message from Mrs. Baxter:
"Miss Hesha and I mentioned that she was going to Martel Racecourse to take a break. I don't quite understand the meaning of that kind of place. After all, there are no activities in the winter racecourse, and now there are only some rude people. Watching a circus show from afar."
Due to the suitable climate and terrain of Nolan City, as well as the extremely prosperous economy, even in the current era of steam industry, the nobles are keen to own their own private horse farms.
But not everyone can afford the maintenance costs of the horse farm, so in winter, some horse farm owners will lease the vacant land to those who need it. The circus from afar has temporarily rented a small area of Martel Racecourse as a performance venue, which is close enough to the city and the rent is very reasonable.
As Mrs. Baxter said, due to the circus performance, there are many more rude and loud people around the racecourse.
When I saw the top of the circus tent from a distance, the noisy voice in my ear was already annoying.
Even in the afternoon when there are relatively few people, it is very lively here. Vendors selling food were shouting loudly, and clowns holding balloons laughed harshly on purpose. It's hard for Jenkins to imagine what kind of grand occasion there will be here at the end of the year. Those in charge of maintaining order must feel that this is a disaster.
Fortunately, Hathaway came here to relax, and she didn't look like the kind of girl who crowded into a crowd to watch a circus performance. According to Mrs. Baxter's information, Jenkins consulted the old caretaker of the stables about the surrounding situation, which cost him another twopence, and then, together with Miss Michael, bypassed the crowd and came to the east of the stables.
There is a somewhat low hill, which is the only area open to the public nearby.
Jenkins still doesn't know why Hathaway came here, but he is very clear that Miss Mihail can't find the world she has been looking for, so since he got off the carriage, he has been opening his eyes of reality to look for the familiar light point.
The path in the racecourse is very difficult to walk, and Miss Michel, who was born in a noble family, is obviously not good at walking such a path. Jenkins didn't notice this at first, his attention was elsewhere, but he finally thought of it when he turned his head and saw Miss Michael's frown.
"Let's go back. I think it's hard to find Miss Hesha in such a big place. Maybe she has already returned home in a carriage, and we don't need to waste time here."
He persuaded that there was no light point belonging to Hathaway nearby, which made him doubt whether the decision to leave Mrs. Baxter's clothing store was correct.
"No, it's fine."
Miss Michel said stubbornly.
However, in order to prevent incidents of taking off shoes for treatment similar to those caused by sprained feet, or carrying people behind due to fatigue, Jenkins insisted that Miss Mihaile return to the carriage for the time being.
He was worried that Hathaway was being attacked again, but the only spots of light found nearby were those from the circus, which showed that at least it was useless to stay here.
"Huh?"
He noticed something was wrong, because in the direction of the tent, there was a light spot representing a young magician. I haven't seen him for a few days, and his level 3 abilities are finally complete, and it's still a blue one.
"He really escaped from the mirror? I really didn't expect it."
Until a suitable excuse is found, Jenkins has no reason to report the existence of illegal givers to the Church. Although he was surprised by the magician's successful escape, he still couldn't learn what method the magician used by reporting these people.
Jenkins and Mikhail were about to leave the racecourse and return to the city. When they passed the entrance again and saw the old guard, Jenkins suddenly thought of a question.
"Miss Mihail, I think if Miss Hesha also came here in a carriage, then the guards here should have some impression of her."
He was right. Since Hathaway was traveling in a private carriage with the family crest, and Jenkins gave him another shilling, the old warden had a very deep memory of the red-haired girl.
He provided an important piece of information. The coachman did not follow Hathaway into the racecourse, but stayed at the door to chat with the old guard. He heard from the coachman that the two of them would have to cross half of the city to reach the south of the city. Miss Hesha was going to a shop to buy some goods.
Now that they got another key clue, the two of them naturally had no reason to give up the pursuit. It was now close to four o'clock in the afternoon, and when they boarded the carriage again, they were sure that Hathaway Hessa should not have encountered any trouble.
Except for the somewhat unpleasant psychic game, this was the rare time Jenkins was alone with Miss Michael. In order to avoid embarrassment, he tried to find some interesting topics to talk about during the long journey. His clumsy appearance made the blonde girl sitting across from him suspect that he had gone crazy for the past two days, so he suspected that the man in front of him would do it. Do shameless things.
The way the conversation started was clumsy, but at least Jenkins had a knack for conversational skills. He doesn't think he is very knowledgeable and talented, but compared to most ordinary people in this era, he can be called "well-informed and broad-minded."
The young women who had in-depth conversations with him, including Miss Miller, Miss Audrey, etc., would more or less develop a little affection for this man because of this, and Miss Michel was definitely no exception.
On the way back at the end of the last psychic game, she seriously thought about how attractive Jenkins Williams might be to Hathaway Hessa. The conclusion reached at that time was that it was very big, and after a few hours of getting along with each other, the adjective "very" expanded to another level.
Even though she was very reluctant to admit it, Miss Michel knew deep down that even if her lover really fell in love with the writer in front of her, she would not be surprised.
Girls who like to think wildly, tend to gallop like wild horses on the road of thinking wildly, and then turn into surprising side roads. On the surface, she was still chatting with Jenkins about the publication rumors of the ninth volume of "The Legend of the Detective Knight", but a thought emerged in her heart that made her tremble:
"Even if we love each other, the relationship between me and Hathaway will not bear fruit unless we put everything aside and abandon everything... There will definitely be a day in the future when Earl Hessa forces Hathaway to choose a suitable marriage partner, then I What's the best outcome imaginable?"
