Dominate the Treacherous Realm

Da da da hoofs completely bang bang ding ding sound of the train covered the side of a man driving a horse near the cabin, then a swoop firmly grasp the iron door at the cabin with both hands.

　　 But unfortunately he didn't catch it, he fell off.

　　 This must be a very powerful gifter, because in less than two minutes, he rode his horse again and appeared on the side of the carriage, but his clothes became gray and there were several worn out holes.

　　 This time he successfully grabbed the iron rod and successfully rolled to the top of the car. Take out a bone whistle from his chest and blow it gently. The skeleton horse that was still running turned into a black spot and flew into the whistle. The bone whistle changed from pure white to black.

　　 He lay on the roof for a long time to recover his strength, and then cautiously approached the car in front, until he reached the fifth-to-last VIP car.

　　 "Damn it, it's finally here."

　　 He cursed in a low voice, and as expected, he poured a mouthful of wind.

　　, thinking about where to enter, he took out a pair of glasses from his pocket. Before starting this mission from Nolan, he obtained this item from a stranger named Mr. White Cat. It was briefly given the ability to see through.

　　 "That **** profiteer."

　　 Thinking of this, I couldn't help scolding that guy in my heart. Had it not been for this assassination mission to give more cash, he would never agree to such a price.

　　 held the glasses legs and placed the glass sheet in front of him. First of all, it was Box No. 1, where a man sitting on the bed and holding a kitten could be seen vaguely. He keeps doing this, and the cat has been lying in his arms.

　　 "Where does the pervert come from? Is this the same for rich people?"

　　 thought in his heart, and looked at the second box. The cat in Box No. 1 suddenly opened his eyes and looked up with amber eyes.

Chapter 422 Chapter 416 Train Travel

　　 In the second box, the old gentleman sits at the desk with a suitcase of guns on the desk. He carefully scrubs the gun body with a white silk cloth. There was a bottle of expensive oil next to the elbow, and the parts scattered on the tabletop had been cleaned to reflect light.

　　 "A gun merchant?"

　　 The man on the roof climbed back while thinking, and looked at the third box. The old gentleman, who was wiping the gun, pointed the muzzle at the roof and put it down again with a smile.

　　 Box No. 3 belongs to a middle-aged gentleman. At this moment, he is lying naked on the bed, holding a book with an exquisite style in one hand, and placing the other in...

　　 Jenkins also has this book, right under his bed.

　　 "Damn, since I received this mission, I haven't encountered anything that goes well."

　　 He cursed in his heart again, completely ignoring the man reading in the box, but actually looking at him through the book.

　　 Box No. 4 belongs to a fat lady. This time, there is no picture of hurting eyes and spirit. But the lady was sitting on the bed with her eyes closed in a strange posture, with three silver spheres floating in front of her.

　　 "Oops!"

　　 He hurriedly looked away to prevent the gifter from discovering himself... but he has already found out.

　　 For a long time, nothing happened, only then carefully looked towards the last box.

　　 The young woman was already asleep, and the maid accompanying her opened the door cautiously and went out at this moment. The curtains were pulled up, and there was no light in the box, but the man was quite sure that this was the goal of the mission.

　　 "Very good."

　　 He thought to himself, planning how to get into the carriage.

　　 The service of the VIP carriage is very attentive. In order to better entertain these guests who paid the golden pound, there is a dedicated conductor sitting in the front of the carriage, ready to solve the trouble for the guests at any time. Although he couldn't be here all the time, it was a bit too risky to enter directly from the window on the side of the carriage corridor.

　　 "The best way is to enter from a certain box, and then quietly wait for the conductor to leave."

　　 He knew very well that although the target of the mission was an ordinary person, he was carrying a special item that she didn't know. This item enabled the woman to foresee the danger, and her window was too close to the window of the benefactor, so she could never enter directly from her window.

　　 looked at the other four boxes again. The old gentleman on No. 2 had a gun, and he was not an easy opponent at first sight. If No. 4 was a gift, he could be eliminated directly. In this way, there are only two perverts, one and three.

　　After thinking for a while, I realized that the man in Box One looks weaker, and the student-like appearance should be easier to start.

　　 He again cautiously crawled forward on the roof, in order to avoid being spotted by Number Four, he even held his breath.

　　 When I arrived directly above Box One, it had already passed the wee hours.

　　 protruded from the roof of the car, and then bent down. Sure enough, through the gap between the windows and the mountains, the man and the cat remained in their original postures, and they should have fallen asleep.

　　 The huge noise made by the train completely concealed the mantra chanted in his mouth, his fingers approached the wooden window and penetrated the wooden structure into the room. A lightly hooked sideways, the lock was opened.

　　 fingers flicked a lullaby melody in the air to make the movement safer, and then grabbed the bump on the roof and rolled into the box.

　　 Just standing on the bed, he saw a pistol in front of him.

　　嘭~

　　 At this moment, the train whistle sounded again. Except for the old gentleman next door and shook his head with a smile, no one noticed the murder here.

　　 Jenkins touched Chocolate's head, then looked at the corpse lying on the bed. His sheets and quilt were completely contaminated, and the man's unsatisfied face still had a surprised expression.

　　 "Today's luck is really bad..."

　　 just escaped from Luen embarrassingly, before he had time to think about what happened just now, he saw the chocolate fiddle in the air with his paws. Looking up along its paws, he clearly saw the man directly above the box.

　　 "Who on earth wants to kill me?"

　　 He couldn't find the slightest clue to this question, "Is the conflict between the church and the royal family already so serious?"

　　 glanced at the corpse on the side again, found the wallet from his body, and took off the bone whistle with the rich yellow aura around his neck, and the other things did not move.

　　 "Sure enough, after arriving at Berdylan, I still don't want to leave the church, God, this is too dangerous."

　　 put his hand on the face of the corpse, the flame burned the face beyond recognition, then took off the coat of the corpse and cut it in half with scissors, wrapped his hands and feet, and pushed it out from the car window.

　　 It was very unlucky and was rolled under the wheels. When the last car left, only some mutilated limbs were lying quietly under the bimonthly.

　　 found an excuse and asked the conductor for a quilt with brand new sheets, and the night simply passed. The killer man didn't know the reason at all, and he didn't seem to have any companions, but his appearance was destined for Jenkins to spend a daunting journey.

The rest of the journey was calm and calm. Although Jenkins went to Luen twice to complete the etiquette course training, Miss Miller did not show anything unusual, but whenever he and the short lady looked at each other, even his ears would become red. .

　　Ms. Stuart still likes to inquire about things related to Mr. Williams, and Miss Miller also hinted that Jenkins could say more. The plan of the two was to let the prince discover their identities by herself, so they didn't care about the exposure.

　　 Since the new book was mentioned in the last correspondence, Miss Stuart is also very interested in Frozen.

　　 It just so happened that Jenkins was also going to ask Miss Miller to help proofread the manuscript, so he wrote another copy with reading and writing.

　　 He could see that the maid Julia was already doubting the authenticity of the identity of "Mr. Poirot". Identity exposure is only a matter of time, but I don't know what Miss Stuart's expression will be when she knows that her pen pal is right in front of her.

　　 In addition to reading books, Jenkins occasionally plays card games with two gentlemen in the same car. The three are not easy to bet, so the ante is only 1 shilling, and after a few days of play, almost all of them have their own winners and losers.

The books you brought have become the best way to entertain. Both Papa and Miss Audrey set up learning tasks. Hathaway's notebook should also be read, otherwise one day in the future we will talk about this matter, and if we find out about the etiquette But if you are not very familiar with the contents of the notebook, then this friendship may be over.

Chapter 423 Chapter 417 The Street Lights of the Royal Capital

　　 The two gentlemen in the same carriage have a very detailed understanding of Berduran. One of them has his own business there, and the other son lives there all year round. After they learned about the purpose of Jenkins' trip and the possibility of becoming a real nobleman, they enthusiastically introduced him to the city.

　　 This is very useful. Although Jenkins does not plan to wander around the city, he can at least "travel" in the city in this way.

　　 The train finally arrived at the Royal Capital two hours late, which is already very punctual. Carrying the suitcase to bid farewell to the friends who had just met, walked out along the passage dedicated to the VIP carriage, and the carriage that marked the sage emblem of the sage had stopped there.

　　 When the Church of the Sage decided the location of the Holy See locally, it was just an empty plain. At least before the disintegration of the ancient Xicali Empire, the significance of the small town of Beldiran was only the holy place in the hearts of the believers of the sage.

　　The ancient Sikali Empire was finally divided up by its three great dukes. The Fediktli Empire, which occupied the central area of ​​the Great/Continent, had a superior position, but it had to withstand the attacks of both the northern and southern kingdoms at the same time.

　　In that age of war, the royal family had to seek help from the church in order to stabilize the situation. In the end, I don't know what kind of agreement was reached. In short, the king was finally settled on the side of the small town of Beldiran.

　　The small town no longer exists, and all the kingdoms of the emerging kingdom have stood up on this plain.

　　 Beldiran Railway Station is in the north of the city, and the location of the Holy See is in the south of the city. It was still midnight when the carriage was driving Jenkins through the city.

　　 Compared with Nolan City, the air condition in Berdylan is pretty good, and the gas stove lamp has been set up on the main road first, and the dim light is shining on the quiet road. This scene makes Jenkins a little sad for some reason.

　　 Even if Jenkins’ identity cannot be revealed at will, the priest who is responsible for welcoming him is still not low. This should be an old man older than the old bishop of Nolan diocese. Although he was wearing the most common priest's gown, he looked very expensive.

　　 "First rule out, this is not the pope, I have seen his paintings."

　　 He thought silently in his heart, because after getting on the carriage and introducing each other, the old man kept looking at him with a smile and did not speak, which made the two-person carriage become embarrassing.

　　 "Berdylan seems to be warmer than Nolan."

　　 is still the same, talking with men starts with the weather, talking with ladies starts with the other person's clothes.

　　 "Really? This may be because Nolan is closer to the sea."

　　 There is no so-called Putonghua in the Kingdom of Fidiktelli, and the accent of the old priest is heavier than the Nolan accent, but it can still be heard clearly.

　　 "The municipal construction in Beldiran is really good. I mean, compared to Nolan, installing street lights on the main road is really the right choice."

　　 "You are right, but the money is to be obtained from taxes, and the distribution of taxes has been the focus of debate among lawmakers over the years."

　　He stretched out his hand and pointed to the lampposts standing on the dark and empty streets: "Look, even many citizens think that if you don't need to travel at night, why do you have to spend this golden pound."

　　 He is right. Although the steam industry has given birth to the development of all aspects of society, the nightlife of ordinary citizens is still confined to their homes. Only those who occasionally travel at night and encounter accidents know how precious the light at night is.

　　 "It doesn't have to be the kingdom's money."

　　 Jenkins hugged the cat and stared at the thriving city with chocolate. The steam industry has left a heavier mark here. Thanks to the worship of steam machinery, the decoration style of the house also looks unusually metallic.

　　 Only the familiar burnt smell and faint mist in the air can make Jenkins feel like Nolan here.

　　He and Chocolate, one is a "country boy" and the other is a "country cat". I have never seen such a big scene.

　　 "If the kingdom doesn't pay, would it be necessary to collect donations? This is indeed a good idea, after all, it is not that no one needs night lights..."

　　 the old man asked thoughtfully.

"No, no, please don't treat municipal construction as pure investment. You see, these street light poles are standing here, and no matter who passes by can see them. If the kingdom allows merchants to post their product information here, why not? Not every pedestrian passing by can see it? Business people will think of this sooner or later, maybe they have done it, so before the street lights are erected, laws must be passed to protect the interests of legal posters."

　　 The old man raised his eyebrows.

“If you really want to use this method to raise funds, it’s best to clearly explain the useful life of the street light pole advertising space, so that it can continue to play a role. Of course, for the management of illegal postings, the content of advertisements is restricted, The specific contract management and other details are very complicated. But as long as you want to do it, public construction has never been a game of playing tricks with gold pounds. Times are different. If you want to earn gold pounds, there will always be a way."

　　 "These are all you thought of?"

　　 The old priest asked in surprise for a long time.

"Yes it is."

　　 He blushed and nodded, which was regarded as an expression of modesty by the other party.

　　 "And the role is far from this, the church can also invest in this area."

　　 He looked at the tiny piece of ground under the gas street lamp. Even though it was early winter, there were still moths flying there.

"We don't need to engrave the holy emblem or scriptures on it. We only need to engrave some of the holy words and scriptures that are also familiar to the people in the most conspicuous place. This will give us another excuse to'enhance the cultural construction of the royal capital'." Look, watch it twice, watch it continuously for a year, the total content on the street lamp can always be remembered in mind, which is much more worry-free and money-saving than public preaching."

　　 The old priest is now looking at him in awe. For a long time, he actually closed his eyes and lowered his head, and drew the holy emblem on his chest facing Jenkins.

　　 "I have known for a long time that the choice of a sage is never wrong, St. William, you are the incarnation of a sage in the world, and you are the saint who descended into the world."

　　 he said in a trembling voice.

　　 "Please don't say that. Everything in this world has its own value, and all I can do is see it in advance."

　　 Jenkins explained in a flustered manner, regretting that he had said so much just now. What he worries most is that someone will hold him too high, and then have to participate in some troublesome things.

　　 "If you also go into business, no one in this world can compete with you."

　　 "No, no, no, I will never do business, I have greater pursuits."

　　 He said religiously, and then he laughed.

　　 The old priest also smiled with satisfaction.

Chapter 424 Chapter 418 The Holy See

　　The Church of Knowledge and Books has a streamlined management system, but in Jenkins' view it is also very complicated. Among them, the supreme leader in managing the secular is naturally Pope Pontef IV, but Jenkins like the following is not clear.

　　 On the contrary, he knows the two management sequences of the gifter very well.

　　 The person in charge of going to the train station to meet Jenkins is actually a cardinal. He didn't tell Jenkins his full name, but asked to call him Bishop Strick.

　　 The conversation between the two on the carriage was so harmonious that after arriving at the destination, the old man wanted to hold him to talk for a while.

　　The location of the Holy See is a whole temple complex. Of course, carriages are not allowed to enter. Even the cardinal and the son must walk in.

　　 This is the first time he has come here. Although he only thinks that he is staying temporarily, the whole church is busy because of it. This is a very important thing, at least in the eyes of Bishop Stricker, Jenkins's "borrowing" is second only to the "borrowing" of the sage after he came to the world.

　　 The external excuse is to rehearse the New Year’s activities in advance, and the entire building complex is littered with lights. Jenkins, holding the cat in the box, wearing a hat with a cane, and wearing that old black coat, stood quietly at the start/point of the red carpet. When he turned around, Bishop Strick did not follow. , But smiled and waved at him.

　　嘭嘭嘭~

　　 Jenkins subconsciously wanted to crawl down, but found that it was just fireworks. Both sides of the red carpet were full of gifted people in neatly dressed robes. Many people were still working hard to use the light and shadow effects attached to their abilities to make the scene more grand.
