Jenkins could feel that the atmosphere at this time was more embarrassing than before, and he regretted his words in his heart.

　　 "If there is anything more embarrassing, it is to ask where this is."

　　 He thought to himself, he had guessed that this was the girl's bedroom. Only here is the safest and will not be easily broken into.

The flame of the 　　 gas lamp burned steadily, but it couldn’t burn the “embarrassed” gas in the diffuse air. Jenkins originally wanted to bring up an interesting topic of "gas lamp explosion" that he had recently read in the newspaper, but he found it out of place.

　　 "The twin demon is here today. I will only tell you about this. Please don't talk nonsense outside."

　　 He said softly.

　　 The girl gave him a surprised look, and she felt a sense of feeling in her heart: "He trusts me so?"

　　 "He is also here? Yes, his own **** was born, he can't be away. Who else is there... No, you don't need to tell me, I know this is a secret."

"It's ok."

Jenkins lowered his head, "The twin demons are believers in the new gods. Everyone can guess that. You don't have to keep it secret, as long as you don't say that he is present today. There are indeed people there, and there is another... ."

　　 Lightly tapped the edge of the soup bowl with a silver spoon, making a crisp crashing sound, "He is wearing a black robe, I don't know who it is."

　　 "Why didn't they save you?"

　　 "This is a test."

　　 This is a lie, I made up my words the moment I wake up, so I can answer it so quickly.

　　 pursed her mouth, Hathaway did not speak.

"Give you."

　　 She picked up a water sac from the bedside table and gave it to Jenkins, which was part of the "hunting suit" he had rented from the owner of the lumberyard.

　　 Open the stopper of the water bag and gently shake the transparent liquid inside. The water not only has a faint fragrance, just like summer fruits, but also exudes a strong yellow aura.

　　 "Since you encountered A-11-02-3219, it is not difficult to explain why you fell into a coma in B-01-05-0086."

　　 Seeing Jenkins look puzzled, she reluctantly explained:

"Since I met you, I have seen a new numbered special item almost every week. It seems that Nolan City is really a big problem. B-01-05-0086, the fountain of wisdom. This is A spring that can move its position at any time is very similar to A-01-2-3000, the old spring, which only appears in the far north of the continent. Both of them are taken from a certain volume of water at a certain location. In the future, it will disappear. But the difference is that there is a serious curse in the Fountain of Agelessness, while the Fountain of Wisdom has almost no side effects."

　　 Her eyes are a little blurred:

　　 "How many gifters are these things that can't be found in a lifetime. I didn't expect that I would only meet your cat by chance and see it."

Section 266. Chapter 262. Thirty thousand pounds of bath water (plus more)

　　 Jenkins blinked and put the plate on the table beside the bed, "What's the use?"

"After the gifter drinks it, about two mouthfuls, the speed of accumulating spirit can increase by about 30% within a year. This is related to everyone's physique... and, within a few weeks, through insights The method of getting close to the world and the probability of comprehension will also increase to a terrible level. After I filled this bag of water, the spring disappeared. These amounts are enough for three people. Of course, after leaving the spring, it must be within 30 days Drink it, otherwise the water quality will turn black and it will become a deadly poison that is only useful to the gifter."

　　 shook the water bag, and there was the sound of water being shaken.

　　 "Well, it turns out that this is what A-11-02-3219 is looking for. This is indeed an incredible treasure."

　　 First look at the water sac in his hand, Jenkins looks at Hathaway again, pondering for a moment, "Go get the container, let's separate it."

"Are you going to give it to me? This is your life, and I will not lie to you. As far as I know, a portion of this liquid is worth at least 30,000 pounds. Even in Nolan, this is enough for you to buy. A large manor with horse farms and farms!"

　　 She pointed her finger at herself, and there were unspeakable emotions in her beautiful eyes.

　　The accumulation of spirit by the gifted person is a slow and difficult process. The price of 30,000 pounds sounds like an astronomical figure, but it is already very small. Perhaps the middle class will be scared by this price, but for most capitalists in the top society, this is just less than a year's income.

　　 "You saved me today."

　　 Jenkins leaned on the bed and explained.

　　 "You know the value of this thing, you are not rich, right?"

　　 Jenkins laughed. Although he is stingy, he still has principles. If Hathaway doesn't show up, no one can take the water away. If she doesn't tell the existence of these liquids, Jenkins will never know that she has taken so much.

　　 Grace must be repaid, grudges must be repaid, the principle of being a great writer is like this. Although not a saint, nor a good person in the strict sense, at least there is a principle.

　　 Of course, I hesitated briefly when I heard the number "30,000 pounds", and my heart trembled when I finally made a decision.

　　 "With my bad luck, I will encounter these things in the future."

　　He comforted himself this way, and then said to the woman who bowed his head in thought:

　　 "I am two you and one, since I found it, then I will ask for an extra copy. You have no opinion?"

　　 She didn't know how to answer for a long time.

　　 "Jenkins, you are really a good person. But the gifter needs to restrain his inflated desires, but he cannot always be perfect without desires."

　　 "No, no, I'm definitely not a good person!"

　　 Jenkins also did the murder and overrun thing. The deadly art school student Blake, his body is probably not finished.

　　 Unlike Jenkins, who has the support of his father and the church provides materials, Hathaway must complete all the rituals independently, so there are things like measuring cylinders in the residence. She poured out the bag of spring water and weighed it in front of Jenkins, not even a drop was wasted.

　　 The little dark nose sniffed, the chocolate eyes sharpened.

　　 These liquids are testimonies of the friendship between Jenkins and Hathaway. Although this matter is not stated, Jenkins believes that Hathaway will understand what he wants.

　　 Putting away the excess spring water, Hathaway took two tall glasses, each holding a transparent liquid.

　　 Jenkins sat on the bed, clamped the bottom of the glass with his fingers, and gently clinked the glass with the red-haired lady with a reddish face:

　　 "Cheers."

　　 "Cheers."

　　 Hathaway raised her neck, her red hair swept across her snow-white neck. She drank all the water in the cup. She put down the cup and wanted to say something to Jenkins, but when she saw him, instead of drinking it, she looked at the cup in her hand thoughtfully and frowned.

"Any questions?"

　　 "I was thinking, does this count as my bath water?"

　　 Chocolate with sharp eyes, fell down again depressed.

　　 Hathaway didn't say anything, just glared at Jenkins fiercely. The latter also knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he raised his head and drank the water.

　　 is different from any drink I have ever drunk. When these liquids slide down the throat and into the stomach, they cannot be sensed. I can't even be sure if what I drank just now is air. In the next moment, it seemed that the pores of the whole body were opened, and a sense of goosebumps came from all over the body. Jenkins let out a long sigh, feeling that the fatigue accumulated over the past few days was covered. Swept away.

　　 Hathaway suddenly turned her head away from Jenkins, but her whole body was shaking. A flushing color appeared on the naked arm.

　　 This is indeed Hathaway's bedroom, but it is not the house of Earl Hesha, but her own property outside. The noble lady is much richer than the great writer.

　　 Jenkins was in a coma for only a few hours. When the two talked to seven o'clock in the evening, the girl got up and was about to leave:

"Today you will rest here for one night. I think your face is still not pretty. This is my room. No one can enter without permission. I have something else to do. I will be back around ten o'clock. Sometimes there may be something to talk to you. Oh, if you need refreshments, or if you want to... go to the bathroom, you can go out by yourself. The maid in the house is not allowed to come to the second floor, but still Be careful, it's best not to leave the door."

　　Actually, Jenkins feels that he is almost well. The newly merged 【gift】, the flame of the inextinguishable purifying candle, continues to infuse him with vitality. But seeing Hathaway's resolute attitude, he did not object.

　　 She turned her head and looked at Jenkins, who was lying on the bed, and Chocolate, who was lying next to him. She wanted to say something, but in the end she didn’t say anything.

　　 After Hathaway left, Jenkins felt it was impolite to lie on the bed of an unmarried lady, so he walked to the window with the reluctant chocolate.

　　 "Oh, the environment is very good."

　　 He looked out and recognized at a glance that it was on the east bank of the Westminster River. Looking out from the window, I saw the dark night, the river bank shrouded in mist and the buildings on both sides of the river bank. The dredging of the river is still in progress, so no ships can be seen now, but before the short freezing period in winter begins, a number of merchant ships from the south will pass by here.

　　 Speaking of it, it seems that the house where the Doomsday Slate was found is also on this street.

　　PS: Thirty thousand pounds is not written casually. According to the content described in this article, it is indeed worth the price. For a long time, there will be no more valuable items in this book.

　　 Another: This chapter is to celebrate the collection of over 10,000 (in fact, there are still a few short).

Chapter 267 Chapter 263 Long-lost Gathering

　　 Jenkins leaned against the wall and looked to the south, reluctantly seeing the house that was still blocked. The guard was very alert and looked to this side subconsciously, but Jenkins had already hid behind the curtain.

　　 I can see Hathaway walking into the alley against the steam pipe on the corner of the street. She has changed from the blue skirt and high heels she was wearing that day. She is now wearing tight pants and a fleece with dark flared cuffs. She is covered with a black coat almost flush with her knees, with a top on her head. A hat that can cover the face.

　　 "So late, what are you going to do?"

　　 Jenkins was taken aback, feeling that he had forgotten something.

　　 "Meow~"

　　 Chocolate screamed boredly in his arms.

　　 Suddenly he had a flash of inspiration:

　　 "Oops, Mr. Hood's party is about to begin!"

　　 patted his head fiercely, picked up the neatly stacked black coat and hat from the bed and left. Because he fell into the water pool, all his clothes were wet...

　　 "Hey, who changed my clothes?"

　　 Only then did he realize the problem, but shook his head again. The focus is not on this now. In order to prevent accidents, he temporarily hid his bag of things, including walking sticks and metal blocks, in the closet.

　　 There are some...indecent clothes in the closet, and Jenkins didn't look at it much, but cautiously hid the metal block in the innermost part, and then prepared to go out.

"Meow!"

　　 The chocolate didn't want to be left here, it whispered and turned into a pure white appearance, even slightly adjusted its appearance.

　　 "Has the chocolate become better again?"

　　 As he thought, he made the cat jump over his shoulder. Locked the door of the room, then opened the window, first observed the street, then squatted to the window sill to close the window, activated [Cat's Elegance], and jumped onto the tree in the courtyard.

　　 There was a maid standing in the window on the first floor scrubbing the tabletop. Jenkins waited for a while while blowing the wind, then lay down along the tree trunk and came to the street.

　　 This kind of single-family houses mostly plant trees in the courtyard. As for the reason, Jenkins once sat with some young ladies when attending Mihail's party, and they blushed and told some colorful jokes together. They said that the existence of these trees is not for the convenience of the thief to enter the house, but for the lovers to safely escape from the young lady's bedroom in the wee hours of the morning, so that both parties will not lose dignity.

　　 Jenkins was embarrassed when he heard this topic, and didn't know what expression he should make, but this seemed to make the luxuriously dressed girls laugh happier.

　　 cautiously walked into the shadow of the house on the street, and when he reappeared, he had turned into a mean-looking, tall and thin man with a white milk cat.

　　 Maybe I was shocked by the encounter with the Pirate King-Saboteur Fermischau during the last meeting. Mr. Hood arranged the meeting place quite cautiously this time.

　　 This is in the woods on the highest point of a mountain not far outside of Nolan. The view from this location is very wide, and there is no higher place nearby. Except that it is a little farther away from the city, there are no shortcomings.

　　 Although Jenkins set off later than Hathaway, he didn't worry about his current face being exposed, so he had little worries when he rushed. As long as you avoid the police officers and the gifter squad patrolling at night, you don't need to worry about anything else. Even the vicious man who tried to rob him in the alley was knocked down with a punch.

　　 panting up the mountain, Mr. Hood has arrived.

　　 Seeing the stranger holding on to his knees, panting and stopping in front of him, he just looked at the white cat unexpectedly, without showing surprise:

　　 "Mr. Candle? Don't worry, it's not time yet."

　　'S voice is a bit hoarse, and I don't know whether it was unfortunately a cold or a disguise.

　　 "It's me, long time no see."

　　 Jenkins stamped his right foot, shook off the yellow leaf stuck to the edge of the shoe, and then opened his hands to show a purple mark.

　　 ran so fast in order to prevent Hathaway from coming here one step ahead of her suspicion.

　　 "The time between this party and the last time is too long."

　　 While talking, leaning on a tree like Mr. Hood, his breath finally calmed down.

　　 "This is also something that can't be helped. There are too many things that happened to Nolan this month. Just the [gear germ] thing is enough for us to be careful."

　　 He said this naturally. After all, it has been almost a month since the source of the first infection was discovered. If the information is better, he can know about it.

　　All the people at this party are here. Mr. White Cat and Mr. Black Cat arrived one after another. The latter's black robe was stained with a large mud and a dead leaf, and seemed to have accidentally fallen; then it was Miss Magic, she still remembered "Candle The cat of "Mr." nodded politely, but did not speak; and Miss Bailing was at the end.

"long time no see."

　　Mr. Hood used these words as the opening remarks, announcing the beginning of the gathering. The six people moved closer inward so that they could hear each other clearly.

　　 It is approaching the cold winter, the nearby woods are full of fallen leaves, and the withered branches above the head are bent like the fingers of a witch in an ancient fairy tale. But think about it, the witch can't beat the six people here.

"Since the last party, too much has happened in Nolan City. But fortunately, everyone is fine, and I hope that next time, I can see you all. I'm not polite anymore. The **** weather is too cold."

　　 Seeing that no one spoke first, he shrugged, cursed the weather in a low voice, and continued to say in a hoarse voice:

"You should all know about the gear germs, so I won't say much. Just be careful. The news I got is that the believers of the prince of lies have been dormant recently. Although they have not left Nolan, they should not leave Nolan in a short time. Will come out again. I don’t know the specific details. This is information I obtained through private channels... But it is said that it is only said that..."

　　 He looked at the five people one by one, and then said uncertainly, his own tone of voice was still suspicious:

"It is said that the group of scammers provoked a certain nobleman of the Nolan military high-level, probably because you accidentally scammed an important item or letter. Now you are being used by ordinary mercenaries, private detectives, and gifted people who want to earn money. Chase. Even if you are a believer of the evil god, you dare not fight against so many people at the same time in a place like Nolan, huh, what is it, and who can know? But the bounty does exist, it is said that there are four digits... ...."
