Girls always like this topic, and Britney, who is the focus of the topic, blushes to make friends not to talk nonsense, and occasionally look at Jenkins who is standing in front of the window and watching the scenery. They all thought that Jenkins could not hear their conversation, but in fact, with Jenkins's hearing, he could hear everything.

　　 "At this time, I think it's better for me to hear nothing."

　　 He thought to himself, pretending to be interested in the recruitment poster on the wall. The cat being hugged broke free of Jenkins's arm, jumped onto his shoulder, sniffed hard with his back to Jenkins, and then squinted his eyes.

　　PS: Tweet the book "Thrown into another world by the bronze dragon", author: Longinus

Chapter 1571 Chapter 1547: Shooting, Traitor, and Suspicion

　　 Sensitively noticed the unusual meow sounds. Jenkins noticed the chocolate reminder. When he turned around, he just saw a middle-aged man wearing a hat hurriedly leaving the hall. This is the person he has been following behind him since he came to the city hall. In fact, when he came to Berduran, he was often followed when he went public, but the stalkers were ordinary people so he didn’t care. He Knowing that it was sent by Queen Isabella to monitor and protect him.

　　 "So when will the queen summon me? See me again, I will go back next week."

　　 He thought about it and watched the man who concealed his panic disappear at the door of the hall. When the man left, he passed by a tall and thin foreigner who looked like Cheslan. The foreigner who entered the door also looked very flustered, standing in place as if looking for someone in the hall, but apparently there was no target for him, so he walked to the corridor on the left.

　　 嘭, 嘭, 嘭~

　　 The sudden sound made the entire third floor seem to freeze. Jenkins widened his eyes and walked quickly to the sofa:

　　 "It's gunshots, don't walk around, stay here. It sounds like the sound from the first floor."

　　 His voice is very soft but powerful. As the only male in the tour group, the girls are naturally convinced by him. As for the other people in the hall, they naturally recognized that the sound just now was three gunshots. Although they didn't know what happened downstairs, it was definitely not a good thing.

　　 Because the area of ​​the city hall complex is too large, there is more than one staircase connecting the upper and lower floors, so it must be impossible to lock down the floors now. The crowd did not leave the place, most of them listened carefully with their breath, and as expected, soon there were gunshots coming from almost the same location. Hathaway, who has the most outstanding hearing, recognized this and the gunshot just now. There are small differences, and the trigger is definitely not the same gun.

　　 "Can't stay here, find a room to hide first."

　　 Jenkins immediately made a decision. He himself did not worry about bullets, but there were too many people with him. If a gunfight happened around him, it would be difficult for him to keep everyone. It happened that some panicked people came to the third floor from the second floor. Under their leadership, everyone in the hall left here and entered the corridor of the government office area that was not open to the public.

At this time, there were at least a few hundred people on the third floor. In sporadic gunshots downstairs, everyone learned that a group of people had just rushed into the city hall with guns and shot and killed the guard at the door. The other guards collided together.

　　 Today is an open day to the public. It is a special day that requires extra security protection. Therefore, there are a large number of guards and security personnel inside the city hall. Before the people on the first and second floors fled to the third floor, the guards of the city hall had the upper hand, and I believe the gunfire downstairs would soon disappear.

　　 Just as they estimated, the sporadic gunshots lasted for less than ten minutes and never appeared again. People who were worried waited for a while to confirm that there was no danger, and then reassured that they wanted to send someone downstairs to confirm.

This kind of work is naturally not the turn of a group of people in the tour group. Jenkins watched the young man in uniform volunteered to walk to the stairs, touched the cat on his shoulder, and then walked a step to the side without a trace. In front of Britney.

　　嘭~

　　 There was another gunshot, the difference was that the gunshot appeared on the stairs on the third floor. The young man who wanted to go down to deliver the letter was so scared that he fell directly to the ground and crawled back to the corridor. The man holding a small pistol with the muzzle facing upward walked up from the second floor.

　　 He seems to be in very bad condition, walking limping, and at the same time his black coat has been dyed dark red with blood flowing from his right chest. When he came to the third floor, the blood dripping behind him almost left a line on the stairs, but he still walked up tenaciously, observing the people in the corridor with fierce eyes.

　　 "Don't move, I will kill anyone who moves!"

　　 This is a foreigner who looks like Chessland, and he speaks very unskilled Fidctic. He seems to be trying to find a person in the crowd, but there are too many people crowded in the corridor. Anyone who wants to hide can only bend slightly to hide in the crowd.

　　 "All the Cheslan people come forward! I only look for the Cheslan people!"

He shouted to the crowd. The people he was watching subconsciously wanted to see if there was such a foreigner around him. Jenkins' eyes slanted and he caught a glimpse of the foreigner who had just passed by the guy who was stalking him. Bend your knees slightly on the wall and try to make yourself look shorter.

"you!"

　　 I don’t know if Jenkins’s women are too conspicuous, or his luck is so bad that he stands too far forward. The gunman suddenly pointed his gun at him:

　　 "Did you see the Chesslane?"

　　 "About ten minutes ago, when I walked to the third floor, I saw a group of Chesslanders leaving from the city hall."

　　 "No, it's not that group of people, that group of people are bait!"

　　 He was talking hysterically, and then asked:

　　 "There are others! There must be other Cheslanites here! Tell me quickly! Otherwise I will kill you!"

　　 Jenkins felt someone grabbed his clothes from behind, he knew it was a blonde girl. So she shook her head to signal her not to be nervous, and then hinted Hathaway not to do anything with her eyes.

　　 "So, what are the characteristics of the person you are looking for?"

　　 "They are traitors! They betrayed Chesland!"

　　 The eyes of the two met each other, and the man with the gun subconsciously said what was in his heart. He was slightly surprised, but his extreme anger and fear of failure in action had made him careless.

　　 "Tell me, where are the Cheslan people hiding here?"

　　 His muzzle was shaking dangerously, and the pain and panic had already made him unstable. Such a talent is the most dangerous, because even he himself doesn't know when he will accidentally pull the trigger.

　　 "Sir, if you want an answer, please hold your gun steady."

　　 Jenkins warned.

"Tell me, where is the Cheslan man who is hiding? I know you want to delay time. Yes, the people downstairs will rush up right away, but before that I swear I will let you know, my There are a few bullets in the gun case."

　　 Excessive blood loss and fear made him almost mad.

　　 "I am a nobleman, so I will not lie."

　　 Even Jenkins knew that what he said was illogical:

　　 "Relax, you will know where he is soon!"

　　 He raised his hands and wanted to take a step forward, but unexpectedly this made the other party completely out of control:

　　 "Don't come here, I will kill you!"

　　 While speaking, his muzzle was aimed straight at Jenkins' head, and at the same time, two groups of people suddenly rushed out of the corridor crowd, and jumped out desperately to block Jenkins's front.

　　 The two groups did not expect that there would be other people making the same action, but the direction of the guns had changed in this mess. So those people made concerted efforts to pounce on the Cheslan people who were armed with guns. The seriously injured man was certainly not their opponent, and was eventually subdued without firing a shot.

　　 After this, the people downstairs also arrived in time, and the small disturbance was completely calmed down. Although the last experience was a bit dangerous, in fact, it took only ten minutes from the incident to the end. Except for the gangster who broke into the city hall and the hapless guard at the door, no one was injured.

　　 "Jenkins, who was the one who rushed out to help you block the gun?"

　　The tour group did not leave immediately after the gangsters were arrested. Because they were worried that there were still gangsters on the street, Jenkins and the ladies took a break in the conference room on the third floor. Not all tourists can be treated like this, because not every tour group has so many noble children.

　　 "The group of northerners should be related to Dolores. I probably met by chance today; the group of people who rushed out first, I should be sorry, I can't guess..."

　　 He answered Britney’s question, but it was actually a guess.

　　 "Maybe it was sent by Her Majesty to protect you."

　　 The blond girl whispered, and Jenkins looked at her pretendingly. By saying this, Britney basically admitted that she knew the secrets of the Williams family.

"Is that right......"

　　 He asked back softly, but Brian did not answer. The atmosphere was a bit embarrassing for a while. Just as Hathaway tried to find a new topic to discuss the identity of the thug, the door of the meeting room was knocked gently, and the guard sent to protect everyone opened the door vigilantly. After a glance, the man who was wiping sweat and smiling awkwardly was let in.

　　 This is Mr. Obis Wesley, the mayor of Bel Dylan. Jenkins has seen a picture of him. Perhaps in the eyes of the citizens, the mayor is undoubtedly one of the big figures in this city, but in fact, because of the unique political system of the Kingdom of Fidiktelli and the various methods the royal family made to check the power of the parliament, the king The mayor of Berdylan, in fact, is not even as influential as the mayor of Nolan, Sax Ruto, in the country.

You know that Mr. Ruto, who participated in Nolan’s first street lamp ribbon-cutting ceremony with Jenkins, can really affect Nolan and its surrounding areas, but it is clear that the mayor of Berduran is very important to the political and economic center of this country. Its influence is minimal. This city has too many bureaucrats and nobles who are more powerful than him. The actual jurisdiction of this city does not depend on the municipal department.

"Ladies, oh, and Baron Williams, I'm really sorry for what happened today. I'm really sorry that you have encountered such a thing. But please don't worry, the gangster has been caught, and the sound laws in our country The fullest sanctions will be given to them."

　　 Mr. Mayor said with a reluctant smile that he did not actually come to visit such a group of "troublesome" guests voluntarily.

Chapter 1572 The first thousand five hundred and forty-eight chapters meet again with Duke Jerrold

　　 "We just want to know, when can everyone leave? We have to go to the theater at night, but we can't miss the time."

　　 Mr. Mayor’s courtesy were not accepted by everyone, and the girls complained that their actions were restricted.

　　 "The block near the city hall is still being investigated for danger, but it will be over soon. Do you need tea and snacks? We have prepared some, please be patient."

　　 Mr. Mayor is also very helpless, no matter how much he is the highest official of Berdylan in name, if it weren't for the identity of this group of people is really special, the above would not force him to be such a despised role.

　　 This kind of humble attitude is not shown to the girls, but to their families. Although there was no accident, if you don't show a good attitude, you might have to push someone out of the scapegoat. It is worthwhile to lose a person's dignity for a while compared to losing a job.

　　 From the window of the conference room, it can be seen that the street below has been blocked by the police of Berdylan. This situation will probably continue for at least an hour. But fortunately, the girls are reasonable. Although they are dissatisfied, they also know that safety is the most important. Therefore, after thanking the mayor for visiting them in person, they asked for some books and cards, and they were here to wait for the matter to end with peace of mind.

　　It's not just Mr. Mayor who came to visit everyone. When Jenkins talked with Hathaway and Britney about the identity of the gangsters, the door was knocked again. This time, an old man in formal clothes with a cane came in.

　　 "Duke Douglas Gerrod!"

　　 After seeing the incoming person, almost everyone in the meeting room stood up stiffly. This old gentleman Jenkins knows that this is Her Majesty's personal steward. He has served the royal family for 20 years after the death of the previous king. He is the most trusted person by the Queen. Jenkins has met him many times. When he was baroned, it was this gentleman who rushed from Bel Dylan to Nolan's old antique shop to award Jenkins the knighthood on behalf of the queen.

　　 It is really surprising that he appeared here, so the group stood up to show respect. The Duke is like the grandfather next door, greeted everyone familiarly. He was able to say everyone's names and was quite familiar with their family background, which made the girls flattered.

　　 "Long time no see, Baron Williams."

　　 Because Jenkins is standing in the innermost part of the conference room, he is the last to say hello to the old duke.

　　 "Long time no see, Duke. I am really happy to see you again and see that you are in good health."

　　 Jenkins responded according to standard social etiquette, and then saw the Duke take off his gloves and stretch out his hand, so he shook it. He was the only one who shook hands with the duke, he didn't know if it was because of gender or identity.

　　 Holding both hands together, Jenkins noticed a note on the palm of the other's hand. He was shocked, but still shook hands with the Duke quietly, but after retracting his hand, the note had reached him.

　　 After the Duke saw everyone and left, Jenkins claimed to go to the bathroom and left here. But instead of turning to the left, he walked straight to the opposite door.

　　 The guards, looking serious, nodded at him, then opened the door to let him in.

　　 The Duke was sitting inside waiting for him.

　　 Judging from the sign, this room should be the Minister's Office of the Environmental Protection Department of Berduran City Hall, but at this time there is only the Duke in the room. Seeing Jenkins coming, he kindly nodded to Jenkins and motioned for Jenkins to sit on the sofa with him.

　　 "What happened just now...that group of people entered from Chesland a week ago."

　　 Without hypocritical greetings and greetings, the Duke talked about today's affairs.

　　 "What does this have to do with me?"

　　 "I know you already know it."

　　 The Duke looked at Jenkins’ eyes and said, the old man’s eyes were a bit muddy, so the reflection of Jenkins was more illusory like a shadow.

　　 "Do you know what I know?"

　　 "You know what I'm talking about, Mr. Williams."

　　 The Duke did not call Jenkins a baron anymore. Seeing that Jenkins stopped talking, he continued:

　　 "Just like factions with different attitudes towards war in China, there are also different ideas within Chessland, and the domestic contradictions among those southerners are stronger than ours."

　　 This statement Jenkins understood that the Kingdom of Chessland is the most backward country of steam industrialization and modernization among the three kingdoms of mankind in the material world. It is not just the coexistence of feudalism and capital, even in the southern provinces of the kingdom and overseas islands, there is a certain form of slavery openly.

　　 Although it seems that the Kingdom of Fidiktelli, which seems to be facing the extinction of the royal family, is aroused by contradictions, in fact, Cheslan is more like a gunpowder keg that explodes at one point. If this were not the case, it would be impossible for Cheslan to declare war so quickly after Fiddicelli unilaterally declared war. Both sides have the idea of ​​shifting domestic conflicts to a certain extent.

"The king of Cheslan's royal family, the Arecio family, is a cowardly and incompetent guy. The domestic power has basically been emptied by the old aristocrats who manipulate parliamentary seats and the newly rich businessmen. But unfortunately, the king is proud. Takov didn't want to fight us, so he sent his own messenger in private..."

"I understand. Today, that group of thugs was sent by forces opposed to the king's decision to intercept the messenger. It seems like a disaster, but are the contradictions in Cheslan really to such a degree? The king, who is a proud man, actually wants to end the war with this method? He was so seriously emptied?"

　　 Jenkins asked, the cat lying on his lap meowed, wanting Jenkins to stroke its back.

　　 "I appreciate your understanding of the situation so quickly."

　　 "But... sorry, I still don't understand what this has to do with me?"

　　 Jenkins is telling the truth, he is still an unrecognized heir, and these political storms have nothing to do with him at least for now.

"The proud Takov has had enough of the current situation. He is eager to make a change, and the whole world has to change. Mr. Williams, you really have nothing to do with this matter, and this conversation is not what I think. I want to do it with you, but your Majesty wants me to do it with you."

　　 The Duke paused to let Jenkins digest what he heard, and then continued:

"Before meeting with your Majesty, we all want to know whether you have the most basic political literacy, and we also hope that you can understand some international forms and contradictions. I happened to come across this incident. It seems that this time The conversation will not have any practical meaning, but it shows that although you have not studied and practiced, at least you are a smart person."

Chapter 1573 Chapter 1549 History Node

　　 The words of the Duke are truthful, and the praise is sincere. Jenkins wanted to laugh at this meaningless temptation, but he knew it was best not to.

"I don’t know if your father has said anything to you, or if the Church of the Sage has talked about something with you, but there is one thing you must know. If it is not for the dilemma faced by both at home and abroad, the succession of the royal family The person will not consider the blood of the illegitimate child a few generations ago."

　　 Before Jenkins reacted, he said again:

"But wherever the noble grows up, he must be noble. The blood of the Middleton family flows in your body. Mr. William, your talent and fortune are quite good. I don’t know if anyone officially talks to you. Speaking of it, but now allow me to tell you-Jenkins Radumput Williams, you are the person most likely to win the crown in this country right now."
