he came. "

   After the voice stopped, the dozens of gentlemen and ladies gathered together fell silent. Until the shovel in someone's hand fell to the ground, someone asked in a trembling voice:

   "This is B-12-5-0001, the doomsday document? This era is coming to an end?"

   Jenkins stood in the crowd at a loss. Whatever he said was himself.

   He asked Captain Pennsi beside him in a low voice. At this time, the gentleman's brows were all twisted together:

"This is a very special [Extraordinary]. It is only possible to be discovered when the end of the era is about to come. And the things recorded in the [Doctor of Doomsday] and the place where it was discovered often point to safety The way through the epochs. Damn, how come here, what exactly does the Asiyashi family know?"

  PS: The addition is over!

Chapter 226 Chapter 222 A Reply Letter Coming Again

   What happened next, Jenkins didn't know. All those present who saw the [Doomsday Document] were quarantined, and could only be released after undergoing strict censorship. They are required to keep a secret, and the gifter who speaks about this will be regarded as apostasy from the church.

  Of course, Jenkins is the third living son of the [Knowledge and Books] Church, and he can definitely be trusted.

   After the two secret guards explained some confidentiality regulations, they would let him go home first. That night, Jenkins, who was standing on his balcony watching the starry sky at night, was reminded by Chocolate, and unexpectedly found a familiar steam airship floating above the church.

   Although [The Doomsday Document] was discovered by Jenkins and Bincy, it must have been a considerable price to bring such an important thing to the Church of Knowledge and Books.

   Just like no one knew the treacherous realm he had just experienced, except for the experiencer, no one knew that the announced end was coming.

   This is the normal experience of the bestowers. Perhaps the middle-aged gentleman who inadvertently passed by, or the faltering old woman, has just seen things that ordinary people can't imagine in their entire life.

   In the newspaper on Wednesday morning, there was a missing person notice for Mr. Robinson. Only then did Jenkins know that he was a small businessman from a foreign country, mainly in the fur and tobacco business. The person calling the police this time is a companion of the caravan. This missing person notice will not be effective. Divination cannot interfere in the treacherous realm. The corpse is not even dusty, and the three people who know the truth will not tell the truth.

   He did something else that night. When he went to the black market at noon to inquire about the news of the auction, he unexpectedly learned from the bartender that Eldron had actually replied.

   After staring, Jenkins looked at the nearly 100 letters shrouded in the light of the kerosene station in distress, sinking into deep self-blame.

   If I hadn't tried the address on Elderron Green Avenue, I wouldn't have caused such trouble, nor would I worry about how the scene should end.

   There was no news of net resumption from the Chessland Kingdom, which means that the owner of this address was still not arrested. In his reply, he not only sent two shillings as required and filled out the questionnaire carefully, but also attached a text message.

   In the letter, the gentleman who calls himself Hunter Bell is very concerned about the girl Jenkins made up. He talked about the customs of Eldron city and the living habits of the citizens, and he seemed to be very interested in the lady who wrote.

   "Is he really a scammer?"

   Jenkins couldn't help but have this question.

He waved his hand and drove the chocolate that was flicking the envelope with his paws off the table. Before it meowed angrily, he hugged it in his arms, and then looked at the stack of two shilling notes on the table, scattered 1 shilling notes. And coins, these are all sent by the replyers.

   "Ah, I still have to reply!"

   He can only do this.

Thinking carefully, Jenkins found that he had overlooked some things last time. For example, based on the details of the answers in the reply he received, it can be judged that the recipients of his letters are mostly wealthy and may not care about the gains or losses of one shilling or two shillings. ; For example, the city of Eldron is much smaller than the city of Nolan. Before these letters arrived, the recipients of the first 50 letters had already told their neighbors new things they had encountered; for example, he came to this world Since then, I have been acting, so the ability to pretend to be improved quickly, and the real story of another world was referenced in the letter I sent, so the dilemma of the female student is too real...

   All of this caused the recipient to really believe the nonsense of Jenkins, and strictly followed him, no, completed the questionnaire according to her request.

   Many people in the letter were also concerned about the situation of the impoverished 18-year-old female student Miss Fabry, which made Jenkins believe that "there are still good people in this world".

   "You guys don't want to be like this, okay."

   He unscrewed the lid of the ink bottle, soaked up the ink, and sniffed the faint fragrance of ink with the pen, intending to draft the next letter.

   Everything is based on the two requirements of "recipients are not suspicious" and "recipients will not send letters back again". He pondered for a long time, thinking that the last time he thought the behavior of the citizens was too bad, it led to the current situation, so this time he must learn a lesson.

   A questionnaire is still attached to the letter. According to the content of the previous two surveys, this time the respondents are divided into three categories: "very rich", "rich" and "not rich", and the questionnaires are constructed separately, which is more realistic.

   He wrote in the letter that as Miss Fabry himself, I am very grateful to everyone for sending the questionnaire while sending the money. After racking her brains to imitate the feminine tone, she said that she recently invested in a mining project that can make money in a short period of time. This business was brought in by friends, so not many people know about it. I can't find out in Nolan City.

   "Miss Fabry" has now completely gotten rid of economic problems by relying on this large-scale investment. Therefore, Jenkins not only put in another questionnaire, but also put in 10 shillings to every address that sent back letters and money, as evidence of the improvement of economic conditions.

   just paid out 50 pounds in cash, but in order to get rid of those senders, he can only do this. Of course, the first two letters should be copied again, and then sent to a new address, so that the "social survey of graduation thesis" appears more real.

  According to Jenkins's expectation, the kind people who received the letter and the money would be happy to do a good deed before learning that Miss Fabry no longer needed money, and then only sent the questionnaire back. In this way, he only needs to send a letter again, stating that the investigation has been successfully concluded, and this unfortunate event is over.

   "Praise the sage, praise the beauty god, may your brilliance illuminate my way forward!"

   After he finished these, he sincerely prayed to the sage. After all, apart from using fake stamps, he did nothing illegal and spent a lot of extra money.

   These letters were delivered to the mailbox again in the dark. Jenkins firmly believed that even though he kindly got into this big/trouble for a while, the great righteous writer would definitely not commit a crime for it.

   The new book of the great writer is still in the process of creating, and the two books sent by the pen pal Miss Mary have almost been read and revised. Jenkins intends to mail it in these two days. This time Miss Mary has been waiting for a long time.

   "A-11-2-3301 can deliver a letter besides giving away?"

   With such thoughts, he fell asleep deeply.

Chapter 227 Chapter 223 Old Jack's Reply

   Because of his suspicious personality, Jenkins has repeatedly suspected that the cat he raised has problems. But many times of suspicion, all proved to be Jenkins's unreasonable trouble. Therefore, he attributed all the strangeness in the chocolate to the magical potion.

   Early on Wednesday morning, he received a reply from Shire.

   Old Jack’s real name would definitely not be "Jack Jack". Jenkins originally thought that his real name would be at the end of the letter, but he did not expect that the signature would still be "Jack".

   Miss Audrey's use of a pseudonym is to follow the ancient tradition of fortune-tellers. So, what is old Jack for?

   He didn't understand at all.

   In the reply, he first answered Jenkins’s question, [Animal Revelation Potion] It is indeed possible to delay or even stop the growth of the ingested creature. But this is not a bad thing. On the contrary, it means that the life cycle of animals is lengthened. To put it more simply, it means to live longer.

   This is a good thing. Jenkins originally worried that the life span of cats is shorter than that of humans. After a few decades, he would use a special ritual called "The Breath of Life" to extend the life of chocolate because he was unwilling. Now I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Chocolate may live longer than myself.

   He patted his cat, and Chocolate ignored him, but concentrated on licking the milk.

   This is really a well-behaved cat. He always likes to stay with Jenkins. Even if he jumps out of the fence alone, he will remember to go home in time. Jenkins worried for some time that chocolate would get lost, after all, he didn't want to wear a collar or nameplate. But then I thought that with the wisdom of chocolate, if one day it disappears, it is definitely not lost, but not willing to see Jenkins again.

  Chocolate looked back at Jenkins who was sad, and then rubbed the tip of his tail against his wrist.

   Jenkins's mood improved immediately.

   Old Jack easily identified what the leaves Jenkins sent in the past. He even told Jenkins for sure that those leaves must have fallen from the [Malicious Wishing Tree].

   can feel the excitement of the old man between the lines. He told Jenkins that this kind of leaves derived from ancient trees with extraordinary power is the best material for preparing medicines related to [life]. He used a full three pages of stationery to introduce the knowledge of pharmacy, and it seems that he has not given up the idea of ​​letting Jenkins be his apprentice.

  Even in these three pages, there is actually a complete way of making a potion called [Witch’s Kiss]. Old Jack didn't put all the steps of making the potion together, but mentioned them inadvertently. This medicine can only be used by women. After drinking it, it can show the characteristics of "radiant" and "full of charm" in the eyes of other people in a short time.

   Specific changes are not limited to fine-tuning of appearance, changes in body odor, etc.

   "What does he mean?"

   Jenkins looked at the complete ritual process and the required materials copied by him, and guessed in his heart that this was tempting himself to take the initiative to make potions, so as to increase his interest in this craft.

   But it's a pity that if he chooses another type of potion, maybe Jenkins will really try it, but even if this potion is made, he won't have a gift.

  Old Jack also sent Jenkins a gift for the reading festival. It was an iron ring made by himself, which could distinguish some poisons when worn on his hand. This ring is effective within three weeks and can distinguish a wide range of poisons.

   He held it in his hand and played with it for a while, then put it on his right index finger, because this finger matched the size of the ring best.

   [The Doomsday Document], Jenkins didn't even mention it to his father, because he needs to keep this secret strictly. He didn't know anything about this item except for some information from Captain Bincy.

   But the "Twin Devil" is indeed mentioned above, which also means that this matter has a major relationship with Jenkins.

   Early in the morning of the day, Jenkins watched the chocolate shrink in front of the fireplace in the antique shop. Its small figure was reflected on the surface of the unusually clean gold that was scrubbed on the side, which looked unusually funny.

   After cleaning, Jenkins copied the tadpoles while talking with his father about recent events.

   It's the second half of October, and the temperature in the morning is exceptionally low. But sitting comfortably in the antique shop, and then watching the pedestrians outside with their necks hurried past the door, is also a very pleasant thing.

   Dad still wears that ugly red cashmere vest today, with his monocle with only yellow aura, playing with a gear in his hand.

   This gear was taken from a person infected with [Gear Germ]. After confirming that it is not dangerous at all, it was handed over to the old man for research.

   Jenkins felt that this thing was of little value, because from the morning on, the aura on it would continue to weaken, and it would become a mortal thing when he saw it.

   Daddy lowered his head and listened to Jenkins once again talking about the weekend night, and then sighed in a low voice how lucky they were to meet the gods.

   He also knows about the Asyash family. After telling some terrible rumors to Jenkins, they talked about Baron Augustus.

   When he went to the estate of Baron Augustus to buy antiques, he also recovered some books containing occult materials. In the books, there are things related to Asyash.

   The sky was a bit gloomy, and there was no sunshine all morning. The last days of autumn are coming to an end, but the severe cold also means that if you don’t stock up on food before the first snow falls, it will be difficult to get through this winter.

   Thursday is the Reading Festival, and Dad also made some decorations in the store. When there were no guests in the morning, they took a ladder and hung a bunch of small metal book decorations inlaid with silver on the walls. In order to cooperate with the festival, the old man also hangs up antiques of ancient books, which are sold at a discount, which is also a good marketing tool.

   Jenkins asked about Hathaway's mention of the auction held on the black market on Friday. The old man actually knew that he casually told Jenkins that this matter had better not be mixed up too much. He received the news that he did have a gift that was about to be auctioned, but not only did the thing come from a bad source, but its owner also had a very big problem.

   So Jenkins honestly gave up his idea of ​​that thing. He has had enough trouble recently, and it's enough to be his apprentice with peace of mind.

  PS: Please help me to step on the book review in the book review area. The user who posted it is called: It’s a gentleman or not too much, just at the forefront. Needless to say, I have already banned him, just step on it. I was so angry that I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night.

   One more chapter in the evening.

Chapter 228 Chapter 224 Widows and Detectives

   It's almost lunch time, and the two boring men are still chatting with each other.

   Ding Dong~

   The bell on the door rang. I didn't expect that at this time, there would be guests coming to the door.

   Lai Ren is a woman wearing a black veil and a conservative black dress. She wore a black hat on her head, with a white flower pinned on it.

   If the guess is correct, this lady should have just attended the funeral.

   "Hello, madam, can I help you?"

   Jenkins, as an apprentice, took the initiative to speak up.

"Good morning sir."

   The woman greeted her in a low voice, her voice was low, but she could be distinguished that she was about forty years old. Jenkins looked out and saw a carriage parked at the door. This should be a rich and rich lady.

   "My husband has just passed away. This has dealt a great blow to me."

   While she was talking, she sobbed in a low voice. He took the white handkerchief that Jenkins handed over, thanked him softly, and then stretched his hand behind the veil to wipe his tears.

   "He liked to collect those old things during his lifetime, and he accumulated some at home. I can't keep them anymore. I can't help but see them, I can't help..."

   The woman sobbed softly again, and Jenkins looked back at his father helplessly. The old man winked at him and motioned to him to solve it by himself.

   prepared hot tea, and finally let the woman adjust her emotions. The maid who was left in the carriage outside the door also walked in, and with Jenkins, let the woman sit on the rocking chair in front of the fireplace.

   The next conversation is between Jenkins and the maid. According to her, her employers are Mr. David and Mrs. David. Mr. David died unexpectedly due to heart disease last week. According to local customs, the funeral took place today.

   Mrs. Davide has been in such a state of grief since that day. This poor woman cannot accept this fact. After meeting with a professional psychiatrist, the doctor advised Mrs. David to leave Nolan City temporarily after the funeral, go elsewhere to relax, and avoid contact with matters related to the dead husband.

   Therefore, she will come here after the funeral, hoping that the staff of the antique shop can follow her home and estimate the contents of the house first.

   This is how things are, but my father can’t go out today—Miss Mihail made an appointment to come over today and ask him to identify a new antiquities for himself.

   Several people discussed it, and Jenkins went to David's house instead of Dad. Although he is relatively junior, David's antiques all have certificates of appraisal. This is what a true collector does.

   Therefore, Jenkins only checked whether something existed in the past, and then returned to report.

   I didn’t eat lunch, the hard-working apprentice Mr. Williams put on his coat and set off with the carriage. Mrs. David was still in a bad mood, but she still agreed to let the chocolate go with her.

   On the carriage, she kept telling Jenkins about how she raised cats with Mr. Davide more than twenty years ago. Originally it sounded interesting, but this lady would cry involuntarily as she spoke. The middle-aged maid took care of her carefully, while Jenkins hugged his cat, hoping that the trip would end soon.

   This situation is really embarrassing for him who is not good at socializing.

   The Davide family should be quite affluent, their house is bigger than that of the Williams family. This is also in the Sabine area, some distance from Williams' home.

   walked out of the wagon holding chocolates. Unexpectedly, a man wearing a brown hat, a classic three-piece suit with a dark-length trench coat, raised lapels, and a scarf in the middle of winter, was already standing outside the house.

   "Detective Ignaz, you came really early."

   Mrs. David, supported by the maid, greeted the man, and then the four of them walked into the yard together.

   The two ladies are walking in the front, Jenkins and the man are in the back. Seeing the detective looking at himself and the cat inquisitively with deep eyes, Jenkins took the initiative to hand over the business card of the old antique shop.

Detective    also handed over his business card:

  【Erwin Ignaz

  Tibiser Avenue 38B

   Howard Detective Agency]

   Mr. Detective also saw the one handed out by Jenkins. He was just an apprentice, so he didn't have his own business card. This one is actually a store card, but it has the names of Dad and Jenkins, so it was taken by him as his own business card. It was definitely not because of saving money.
