The old man replied simply and clearly: "He lost a lot of money in the casino, and borrowed loan sharks from the gangs in the slum. He deliberately copied the haunted thing here, knowing that Brian Michal was very concerned about it. She was interested in such things and wanted to sell it to her working capital, but who knew that she had lived here for a few days and found that there were no so-called haunted incidents, so she stopped buying. Bad rumors made others unwilling live here......"

   "I picked up a big bargain?"

   Jenkins concluded.

   "Yes, luck is very good. I found that your luck has suddenly improved since the ancient castle treacherous. Could it be the compensation of the hermit of fate for the previous days?"

Chapter 81, Chapter 78, The Huntress’s Reply (The reward is over, please see the end of the chapter)

   Dad’s question Jenkins didn’t know, but the golden ring gleamed slightly in his spirit, which was the color representing wealth.

   Going home that night, Jenkins told his family about the purchase of the property. The old Williams was very happy that Jenkins could buy such a house with very little gold, but he was worried about the so-called haunting.

   "It's okay. I'll go to church in a few days. The bishop shouldn't mind going to bless that house."

   Jenkins hypocritically pulled Bishop Palode out again as an excuse.

   He didn't have much luggage, and he packed it out quickly with the help of Mary Williams. But there is no need to move out so quickly. The family decided to help Jenkins move together on the weekend.

   Kitty Chocolate still stays in the old shop. Jenkins sometimes worry that it is unwilling to live with him in a new home, but every time he goes back to the shop, the cat is always very enthusiastic about him.

   In fact, Jenkins also feels that this enthusiasm is a bit wrong. According to his understanding, cats should not be so easy to get close to people. But now that I have a house, a job, and a cat, I am considered a successful person. Don't take these wild guesses to heart.

  Since the real estate transaction was completed thanks to Miss Mihail, Jenkins naturally wanted to give her a gift to express his affection.

  The gold pound is too vulgar, and Jenkins doesn't have much money, so he can only ask his father for help. But the old man gave him a big news:

   "I'm back, the affairs of the sea is over."

"Oh?"

   This is Saturday morning, and Jenkins originally planned to take time off from his father and go to the black market to meet the huntress.

   "Are you back now?"

   "The ship has already set off, and it will probably be back to Nolan tomorrow morning."

   said the old man, then tapped his fingers on the table, hesitantly said to Jenkins:

   "Since the affair on the open sea is over, I can also explain to you what happened: Someone found a box in a coral reef in the Broken Isles with a trick in it."

   "Crooky thing? Very dangerous, isn't it?"

   Jenkins asked.

   "No, it's not dangerous, but very useful. The church does not hesitate to let the entire diocese have the strength to be robbed of the kind of usefulness."

   Jenkins nodded knowingly.

The old man was a little bit hesitant. He watched Jenkins's expression carefully, and then continued: "The attack you encountered on Monday night has been found out. It is a wanted criminal who fled here. Don't worry, he is already Leaving Nolan, the accident was just an accident."

   Jenkins was still thinking about what the "creature" his father said was, so he didn't notice his weird expression when he said the last sentence.

   In the afternoon, I went to change the door locks and repair the lawn for my new home. Jenkins and his father took leave, came to the black market with the remaining savings, summoned spiritual gifts in the shadows, and then found the middleman, the clown, who was still in the original position.

   It doesn’t matter if the appearance is different, as long as you know the secret code of the connector when you left the last time.

   "The black raven."

   He nodded to Jenkins and led him to the wool carpet room above the sewer pipe.

  Four sofas surround a wooden round table, and the candle burning on the round table is the only light source. The woman who claimed to be a huntress was already sitting there waiting for him.

   "How is it, are there any results?"

  Waiting for the clown to disappear under the trapdoor, Jenkins asked.

   "It's a terrible disguise...This matter is more troublesome than I thought."

The female hunter’s voice was a little hoarse, “I found out that among the houses that were burned down, there was one that used to be the local secret stronghold of the [Sun and Justice] church thirty years ago. It involved the Orthodox Church. Very difficult to collect."

   Jenkins smiled and expressed regret, but he would never pay an extra copper penny for this.

   She picked up the stack of paper materials she had placed next to her on the round table, but did not push it to Jenkins, but held it tightly with her left hand, raising that extremely ordinary face to look at Jenkins.

   Jenkins nodded knowingly, and pushed her the 15 pound balance of the deal.

   In the rest of the time, the huntress quietly waited for Jenkins to ask questions after reading the information.

   Although Jenkins's request was to investigate all the houses that were burned down, his goal was only one. Make a complete set of the show, and read all the information.

Due to the size of the city and population issues, it is impossible for any city to accommodate all the Orthodox churches. Therefore, according to the "Tower Agreement" (revised third edition) thousands of years ago, the 12 Orthodox churches are fairly evenly distributed throughout the entire area. On the mainland, adjustments are made every 100 years according to population migration and urban development.

   But this does not mean that churches not in this city will not put their own forces in it. For example, the [Sun and Justice] church that once occupied a burnt down house was the stronghold of their spies more than 50 years ago.

   The great plague that spread to the entire continent 30 years ago did not have much impact on Nolan City, but the church staff was transferred from here, and then this stronghold was abandoned.

   Incidentally, Jenkins’ father Robert Williams escaped from the remote hometown by boat alone to Nolan at an early age because of the plague, and settled down, married a local girl and had a family now.

   The house once occupied by the believers of [Eternal Blazing Sun] is the house where Jenkins dug out hexahedral metal blocks. Looking back, due to the age and the riots caused by the war and the plague, the specific owner of the house can no longer be found; and backwards, until the house is occupied by the smuggler Mr. Brown, its owners are completely ordinary people.

   Jenkins is almost certain that what he got should be the items left over when the church occupied [Sun and Justice].

"Is there a problem?"

   Seeing Jenkins put down the information, the huntress asked.

   He narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, "Is there only these? It's not the same as I thought..."

   "I can guarantee that for the same amount of gold, you will never find out more information in Nolan City."

The woman’s voice was full of confidence, but when her voice changed, she brought up another incident: “In fact, I did encounter a very strange thing during the investigation, but this incident has nothing to do with what you asked for investigation. So you don’t need to know."

   "You are compulsory consumption..."

   Jenkins made a gesture to get up and leave: "I won't spend extra pounds on things that I don't need to know."

   "It has something to do with the recent haunting, are you interested to know?"

  PS: @{\"reader_id\":\"1496921\",\"reader_name\":\"Naihe Mingyue shines on the ditch\"}, I met a local tyrant. The reward addition is officially over, enough for 30 chapters, and it will be added when it is put on the shelves.

   When I offered the reward, I thought the book was cold, but I didn’t expect that the editor of Orange would give such a good recommendation. When I arrive, I will discuss with the editor whether to send it out once or in two.

   I cried to death, the manuscript was saved and consumed, I went to the codeword, bye.

   Another: Change the update time in the future, 6:30 in the morning, and 6 in the afternoon.

Chapter 82 Chapter 79 Possession Evil Spirit

   She looked at Jenkins sat down again with satisfaction, and the man coughed slightly, "This is still something I need to investigate..."

   "So there is no need to give the clown an intermediary fee." The huntress took out the next sentence knowingly.

   "I don't have much money, and I'm not sure if I need what you said."

   "10 pounds."

"No."

   "5 pounds."

"No."

   was silent for a while, "I never give away messages for free."

   "3 pounds."

   Jenkins took out three banknotes from his pocket and put them on the table, "You can sell this kind of news multiple times, and the cost is almost zero. Even if I take out a pound, you still make a profit."

   The female hunter gave Jenkins a vicious look, and grabbed the money on the table:

"Okay, listen up. Someone said that the source of evil spirits is the changes in the starry sky. This is not entirely true. In fact, there should be a fixed place for evil spirits in Nolan City. Don’t ask me where I am. If I know I’ve already gone to the Orthodox Church to earn a bounty."

"that's it?"

   Jenkins felt he was cheated.

"Also, pay attention to the people around me recently. When I was investigating your commission, I ran into an ordinary person who was possessed by an evil spirit. Do you know what it means to be possessed by an evil spirit? The spirit body injects its own spirit into one. Inside the living person, kill the consciousness of the living person, and then manipulate his physical body."

   "Is the news accurate? The evil spirits that I heard about in the city are all very weak ones."

   Jenkins asked rhetorically, this is indeed new information.

   "You only paid 3 pounds, so you can only listen to the results, not the process."

   The huntress gracefully put down her left leg that was cocked up, twisted her body, cocked her right leg, and stretched out her right hand to twist Jenkins.

   Her legs are very long, but Jenkins with empty pockets is in a bad mood.

   There is still a lot of time in the afternoon. Jenkins walked out of the pig’s head bar, put his hands in his coat pockets and walked back to the old antique shop.

   "You came back so soon?"

   The old man looked away from the newspaper, seeing that it was not the guest but Jenkins, he picked up the newspaper again in disappointment.

   "The locksmith is easy to find, so I went to the furniture dealer again, but the asking price is too high, and the carpenter's is not suitable. Let me ask the old man to help me choose some antique furniture. I want fake antiques."

   While talking, he looked around.

   "Smelly boy."

   Daddy laughed and cursed, making the chocolate lying on the counter meow with dissatisfaction.

   This kitten has a very good temper. As long as Jenkins remembers to bring him milk and ham every day, it will never make trouble while Jenkins is working.

   The only unsatisfactory place is that Jenkins often gets caught when he bathes it. Sure enough, cats hate water.

(Dividing line)

   "Doug Nicholas, is it okay?"

   Captain Bincy looked at the two hounds at his feet suspiciously.

"no problem."

Nicholas, wearing a trench coat and holding a rope in his hand, said that his eyebrows are thicker than ordinary people. "It took me three years to develop these two hounds with unique abilities. Their sense of smell is completely beyond the ordinary level. Even gifted people with special abilities in their noses may not be able to beat them."

   Binxi nodded, "Then give it a try and find out the black-robed man who took the trick."

   The two of them jumped out of the carriage, and across the road was the collapsed apartment at 431B Queens Road. After more than half a month, the martial law police have been withdrawn, and workers in simple clothes are clearing the rubble on the scene. Several young children, dressed in tattered clothes, tried to find some paper money from the rubble, but were immediately driven away by the vicious overseer.

   The black hounds ran wildly after Nicholas let go. They stretched out their noses and sniffed around the ground, almost choked by the bad air.

   tacitly turned back to look at the owner Nicholas, and then ran wildly.

   Captain Bincy followed closely, and saw two hounds walking straight along Queen's Road, bumping into the old gentleman passing by, and scaring away the newspaper seller.

   Suddenly, the two hounds shivered, clamped their tails tightly between their legs, pressed them to their belly, and ran into the distance at a faster speed.

   "What you strengthened them is really the sense of smell, isn't it speed?"

   Captain Bincy complained, and stopped the carriage passing by, chasing him again with Nicholas.

   He didn't notice that when the hound was frightened just now, it happened to stop in front of the old father's antique shop.

   The black and white little chocolate milk meowed milkily, closed his open eyes, and fell asleep comfortably in Jenkins' arms.

   The next day, the Williams family hired a carriage and brought Jenkins to his house on St. George Street with his luggage.

   "Is it a bit too big? Don't you plan to hire a maid or a maid? It takes too much time if you clean it yourself?"

   Robert akimbo, looking at the house from outside.

   "Ah~"

   Jenkins realized this problem. The joy of owning a house made him not think so much at the time. Of course he didn't have time to do heavy housework.

   "Young people are still not thoughtful."

Robert patted him on the shoulder, "Don’t forget to go to the Nolan City Council to open the steam pipe, remember to visit your neighbors, don’t forget to tidy up the lawn, and, although this is not a strictly managed neighborhood like Privet Road, you throw out rubbish. It should also be a fixed time, remember to inquire about it."

   Jenkins stood there and smiled bitterly, "Well, can I move back now?"

   "Do you need me to lend you some gold pounds? After buying this house and adding some furniture, I'm afraid you don't have much money in your hands?"

   Old William asked.

   Jenkins still has about 30 pounds in his hands, which is better than when he just crossed over. He thought for a while and felt that he didn't need to borrow his father's money.

   "Is it expensive to hire a maid?"
