While the tenants were dining, several police officers in black uniforms came in from outside the apartment, each carrying a melee weapon. The leader was a man with a short beard, wearing a Wearing a tall hat, he stood out among the crowd.
Karl hurriedly came out of the room, looking nervous but not timid at all. He tried to straighten his back and asked, "Sir, what's the matter?"
"It's okay, I'm just taking a walk."
The man in the tall hat strolled into the restaurant and found that everyone had stopped eating and looked at him, so he waved his hand impatiently: "You can eat, I will take a look."
After scanning around, his eyes fell on the man in formal attire. Among these lowly people, he was the most eye-catching.
Two police officers walked up to Zhou Jinru and said coldly: "Please show me your ID!"
The old couple sitting opposite Zhou Jinru lowered their heads and did not dare to say another word.
"This is my personal ID."
Zhou Jinru took out a small green leather notebook and handed it to the police. One of them flipped through a few pages and handed it to his companion. He turned to look at his superior and shook his head slowly.
The man in the tall hat came over, took the small book and looked at it a few times, and whispered: "Colombian? Career or explorer?"
He raised his head slightly, rolled his eyelids, held the document with two fingers, and played with the taste: "How does it feel to come to the civilized world from that den of robbers and scum?"
For the Victorians, even if the cities in the northwest wilderness become independent and become a brand new country, they are no different from barbarians.
Zhou Jinru did not flinch in the face of this arrogance. He calmly looked at the man in the tall hat and said, "I am an explorer and I am used to surviving in harsh environments."
His words caused the two police officers to reach out and press the batons on their waists, but their supervisor stopped the behavior, threw the green notebook on the table, and said calmly: "I hope you can discover the difference between the civilized world and the barbaric society. Welcome to Victoria."
After these people left, Zhou Jinru slowly put away his green notebook. No one in the restaurant vented his anger loudly for a long time.
Karl glanced at the explorer and left in a hurry.
The old gentleman sitting opposite struggled to stuff a piece of bread soaked in soup into his mouth. After finishing his food, he said, "Fortunately, you are a Colombian, so Huron didn't dare to touch you."
Zhou Jinru laughed twice. He didn't expect that one day he would be able to experience the privileges enjoyed by foreigners, but this result was not what he wanted.
"Why do you say that?"
"Last week, Londinium Police Chief Ken William was dismissed. The new Huron is an out-and-out new aristocrat and he is enjoying his power."
Zhou Jinru asked curiously: "Is Ken William an old aristocrat?"
"He's a royalist."
"..."
The situation in Londinium was turbulent. The new nobles did something earth-shattering and put their king under house arrest, but they had differences when dividing the cake.
This is no joke, Zhou Jinru looked away.
He ate hastily and went upstairs to rest.
In the evening, there was suddenly a quarrel downstairs, and one of the people seemed to be Karl.
Zhou Jinru opened the door and happened to see an unkempt man walking to the stairs. When he saw Zhou Jinru, he left in a hurry, which was quite suitable for the identity of a lonely tenant.
After waiting for another ten minutes, Zhou Jinru put on his clothes and came to the first floor. A teacup flew out of nowhere and he caught it. He saw the angry young man leaving the room and rushing out of the apartment. Karl chased him to the door. shouted:
"If you dare, don't come back!!!"
“If you don’t come back, you won’t come back!!!”
Zhou Jinru put down the teacup in his hand with a smile on his face and said softly: "Did you have a quarrel?"
Karl struggled to calm down his anger: "That's my son Gray. He just went to college. Mr. Fourth, I didn't hurt you, did I?"
"I'm fine. You have to be careful about your blood pressure. I'm worried that one day the blood vessels in your brain will burst."
"...You are a doctor. Mr. Fourth, you are right, but I can't help but be angry. This society is too complicated. Children will take detours if they are not careful, and it will be too late to turn back."
"Reasonable worry." In Zhou Jinru's eyes, Carl was a father who was worried about his child, clumsy and unable to communicate with his son in a more peaceful way.
Karl recovered a little and pointed to the dark sky outside: "Mr. Fourth, winter nights usually come earlier, and there is a curfew at night. Don't go out if you have nothing to do. The police station will not look at your identity when arresting people. If you don’t have someone to bail you out, you may have to spend several days in jail before being released.”
"Thank you. I'll remember it and won't go out at night."
He was a person who was disturbed by the quarrel, so he said a few words and planned to leave.
In the eyes of the tenants, the new neighbors are young people who are good at communicating, polite, and have a certain social status. Coupled with their Colombian status, even Huron, who has been the most popular new official in office, has to retreat. .
Zhou Jinru didn't ask why there was surveillance equipment in the room, nor did he care about the real reason for the quarrel between Karl and his son. As a passerby here, he shouldn't show strong curiosity, and his real target was Wei Na.
The new nobles of Victoria imprisoned the king, which means that the important historical point of executing the king in the square has not happened yet, but it will happen soon, and I am afraid that by then, the young Vina will appear.
As a member of the royal family, she should also be imprisoned.
Zhou Jinru thought for a while and finally decided on the first place to go: Leon Mansion.
Mrs. Leon had not stepped forward to take charge of the situation at this time, but she was indeed an important role in opening up the situation. In the following ten years, she even protected the few Aslan bloodlines and suppressed all forces that were ready to move.
Early the next morning, Zhou Jinru dressed neatly and left the apartment. On his way out, he met the old gentleman opposite.
"Good morning, Mr. Four."
"Well, good morning."
He boarded the bus at a nearby station and headed from the outer city to the Western District, the aristocratic district that was almost twenty years away from reality.
At the junction of the two regions, Zhou Jinru hired a carriage. Going forward, you have to either take a carriage or walk. Buses cannot get in.
"It's not much different from the Londinium I've seen. The urban infrastructure of Londinium has basically remained unchanged in the past twenty years, except for some modern electronic equipment."
An hour later, Zhou Jinru stood in front of a bar. Perhaps he was revisiting his old place, and he was filled with emotions.
Twilight Bar, 12 Baker Street, Western District.
