"The Antak family and the Quake family are both mortal families with a long history. The long years have always allowed them to come into contact with some secrets, and those nobles are the type of people who are most likely to be tempted by evil gods or evil. Jenkins, What happened tonight was a very serious accident, and I think you should understand what the news you bring means."
"It means that these two families will be removed."
"This is just one aspect. It means that after many years, mortals dare to touch the taboo of the extraordinary."
Dad moved the position of the candlestick a little, so that the skeleton and evil spirit on the right side of the frame were also illuminated.
"In those ancient times, alien races ran rampant in the world, extraordinary people built towers to recruit apprentices to pass on knowledge, adventurers traveled through the world to search for treasures... In that era, extraordinary powers were not yet hidden, and even ordinary people knew about those extraordinary powers. But it is also It will cause problems, we are the bestowers, and we understand that we should be afraid of the extraordinary; while ordinary people who are greedy do not fear, this will lead to many terrible things... "
The position of the candlestick is shifted again to reveal Jenkins with his animals and colleagues on the left side of the frame. These faces have been processed so as not to reveal their identities, and the figure of Jenkins standing on the burning ground is the clearest and most conspicuous.
"Later, the heterogeneous species declined, and the frequency of those ABC events and items gradually decreased, so the Church of the Twelve Orthodox Gods and the secular regime signed the first version of the "High Tower Agreement" to protect and restrain the world. The modern version It has undergone countless revisions and has gone through a long era."
In the frame, the cat in the sky is not very conspicuous, because beside the eagle and the cat are the starry sky and the starlight painted with azure blue paint, which represent the protoss.
"Someone has broken this agreement on their own initiative, and signed a contract directly with those terrible things...Jenkins, things will always develop in a direction that people don't expect. We must be prepared, the world will be chaotic gone."
Whether the world will move or not will not affect Jenkins for the time being. He is still more concerned about getting up early the next day and going to the antique store to help deliver the goods.
During breakfast, I was very happy to hear that the demigod of [Starry Sky and Equilibrium Church] visited the Sage Church in the middle of the night and rescued two fortune tellers. Now Miss Audrey and Miss Briony Ance are awake, but they are not in good spirits.
Before leaving the church, Jenkins talked to them for a while about what happened last night, using the version that was written in the report, of course.
The fortune tellers did not question Jenkins' account, and they are still resting now. Even without direct contact with the boy Peter, the shadow from the outside world has greatly damaged their health and spirit.
It will take a while to fully recover, but the good thing is that there are finally records of survivors who opened the wrong door in the records of A-04-1-6671, which can help future generations to a certain extent. .
After arriving at the antique shop in the morning, I first told my father about the situation of the fortune-tellers, and then set off with the cat and the carriage pulling the goods.
The location of the art exhibition is the [Byron Museum of Art] in the downtown area, which is on the same street as the Goldbird Auction House. Jenkins sat with the driver on the shaft that jutted out from the front of the wagon, and the driver shook the reins slightly to slow the horses. Because it is the core commercial district of the city, there are many pedestrians here on Friday morning.
Jenkins saw a little flower girl being left far behind by the carriage, he took a deep breath and closed his eyes, and quickly stroked Chocolate's head with his right hand.
The cat quickly got angry because of this action, stretched out its small paws to pick at Jenkins' hand, and Jenkins opened his eyes resolutely after trying to restrain his impulse and failed:
"Sorry, I'm going to buy some things, you take this truck in first, and I'll go find you right away."
He said this to the coachman, and after getting the reply of "Yes, sir", he jumped out of the car. The speed of the car is very slow now, so although it is dangerous, it is not very eye-catching. Holding the sullen cat in one hand, the man walks through the misty stone-brick avenue. On both sides of the street are gray stone buildings of varying heights. Steam pipes and drainage pipes line the walls like vines.
Soon he found the little flower seller who was waiting for the crowd to pass by and wanted to cross the road. Jenkins sighed and walked over to stop her, then pointed to the road thirty feet (about 9.144m) away Alley, beckoning her to go over and talk.
It's clear that the scrawny little girl is terrified of Jenkins, even though he's good-looking and holds a rather cute cat. But the girl was finally moved by Jenkins' gesture of giving money, bit her lip, and followed Jenkins slowly into the alley.
The alley Jenkins chose should actually be called a corner between houses for garbage disposal, because not far from it is a brick wall blocking the front road. The garbage here has probably been disposed of in the past few days, so the ground is quite clean, but there is still a pungent sour smell.
"I want to buy your flowers."
Jenkins said bluntly, the flower seller lowered her head not to look at him, and gave a slight "hmm".
The man nodded, motioned the cat not to move, and began to take money out of his pocket. Because he came out temporarily to escort the goods, Jenkins didn't bring much cash, but fortunately, he still had some change in his pocket that he could use at any time. Counting it was probably less than 18 shillings, he arranged some crumpled banknotes and stacked them together according to the denomination, and then put the handful of copper pennies and the only silver coin (1 shilling denomination) on the banknotes.
"See if these are enough."
He handed the money to the girl.
The girl took a step back subconsciously, then bit her lip and looked at Jenkins' mid-week banknote, and finally nodded as if she had made some important decision.
"Enough is enough, sir."
Her voice is very crisp, probably because she has not yet fa//educated, so she has a childish feeling.
"That's good."
He continued to hand out the banknotes. Seeing that the girl did not move, he stretched out his left hand and ticked: "Can you give me those flowers?"
"Um?"
The flower girl seemed to have encountered some doubts, looked at Jenkins' hand suspiciously, then suddenly called out, quickly grabbed all the flowers in the basket and wanted to hand them to Jenkins, but her hands were too small, and finally Jenkins reached out and took the flowers out.
