Miss Stuart got some expensive cat food from somewhere, and hid it in a small compartment in the study, which was easily sniffed out by chocolate. Unfortunately, chocolate's appetite has become different because of the owner's feeding. Although it occasionally eats some cat food, it is actually more interested in Jenkins' food.
The cat only tried a few mouthfuls, even though Julia filled it with a good amount of food in a china cat food bowl.
It is also not interested in big fish and meat, but is very interested in fresh fruit or milk. Jenkins' fruit bowl has long since been dedicated to chocolate.
There are no pets in the palace of the Stuart royal family, but Miss Stuart recently mentioned that she would try to keep a cat when she was an adult, but Jenkins didn't understand the meaning of this sentence.
Until Miss Stuart finished her math homework, Jenkins and Alexia had been standing by the window discussing recent events around them and giving each other advice.
Accidents occurred frequently in Nolan City, and Ruen City was not all peaceful. In addition to the Mark of Killing and the Snowman Legion mentioned last week, another entrance to a strange realm appeared in the city this week, but it was quickly entered and eliminated by the Orthodox Church.
According to Miss Stuart's information, the people who entered the strange world obtained some fragments of information from the ancient times, which played an important role in the excavation of the ancient ruins in the extreme north.
"Please accept this."
Originally, she wanted to discuss with Miss Stuart about the use of frost abilities, but she took out a tin box from the desk and handed it to Jenkins.
"What's this?"
As he asked, he slid open the lid of the box, and found that there was a small wooden cross in it. The surface was so rough that wooden thorns could even be seen, and the end of the cross was cut into an extremely sharp point. shape.
"This is B-05-4-3911, the blood-sucking nemesis. As long as you use this weapon to hit the head or heart of a vampire, even a demigod will surely die. I found it in the royal family's treasury a few days ago. "
Protoss Rakul talked about weapons specifically targeting specific races. The [Demon Slayer] witnessed by Jenkins and this [Vampire Buster] belong to this category.
"Isn't this a little expensive?"
He didn't refuse, this item was very important to him.
"No, Mr. Williams, you and Miss Miller have helped me a lot and have been willing to share your knowledge with me, and last week's dance..."
Seeing that the expression on Jenkins' face was normal, she whispered again:
"Actually, I also want to ask you to help me. In the middle of January, my father will organize a winter hunting activity according to the family tradition. Can you join me?"
"Of course, I will be the best guard."
He assured, then turned back and said:
"Alexia also come together, I think it will be safer."
The three women in the study were all surprised by this sentence, but they couldn't say anything to refute it.
Jenkins' face was half black and half bright from the gaslight. Sometimes even Alexia wondered if the man really didn't understand, or pretended not to.
If the time is forever frozen in the last month of 1865 in the universal calendar, Jenkins will never agree. He has experienced too many troubles this month, and he still has to face even greater troubles next.
Early Wednesday morning, Jenkins received a letter from Professor Burns. The end-of-year exams at most of Nolan's schools will end this week, so Jenkins' public class is scheduled for this Sunday afternoon, and he will have a full four hours to share his writing process with young students and experience.
Pop made Jenkins take this seriously because it was an honor.
"And your new book is about to be printed, maybe you can use this opportunity to promote it."
Papa suggested.
As the end of the year approached, lawyer Mr. Raul Onis also brought good news. With the help of the Church of the Sages, the processing of Mr. Augustus' estate was very fast. He informed Jenkins not to leave Nolan City in the near future, because the formal inheritance procedures of the inheritance may be handled at any time, which can only be done in the city hall of this city.
When he met Hathaway and Miss Michael in the afternoon, he shared his good news with the two ladies, and planned to use the next large sum of money to prepare enough luggage for winter travel.
Miss Mihail advised Jenkins to put that money to good use, and she was able to introduce quite a few investment businesses "Oh, that would be really appreciated. But my father has offered me to invest in the mining business, he works for the Consolidated Mining Company , with some channels in hand…”
I don't know which topic was discussed, Jenkins also told the two about meeting Mr. Liverpool again last night. It just so happened that Miss Lawrence was also in the club at this time, and the two of them directly told her about it.
Miss Lawrence was also very troubled. She admitted that she had repeatedly rejected Mr. Liverpool's pursuit, but the man was still relentless.
When Jenkins came here today, he didn't see Liverpool at the door again. He wasn't sure if it was because his warning had worked the previous evening, or if the young man wanted to hide from the limelight.
Miss Michael is also prepared to intervene in this matter, and if Liverpool reappears, she will warn with more severe means.
Most of the written script of the detective opera has been completed, because "standing on the shoulders of giants", Jenkins wrote very fast. This troubled Hathaway a bit, because it was impossible for her to create the corresponding tracks at such a speed.
I planned to finish all the content this afternoon, and submitted this version of the script to Mr. Nelly at the weekend. Unexpectedly, the maid of Hathaway's family suddenly appeared. It seemed that her eldest sister had a problem and she needed to go home immediately.
Miss Michael, who tried to avoid being alone with Jenkins, found a reason to leave soon after. So somehow, Jenkins was single again.
He was embarrassed to stay in this club specially set up for noble girls, so he left through the gate with the cat that had just woken up from a nap.
A casual glance, still no Liverpool.
"It's not yet three o'clock..."
He looked up at the west-slanting sun, and took another deep breath of the cold air, only feeling a bit tingling in his throat.
"It's too early to go back to church. Why don't you find something to do and let me think about it..."
