When Jenny's bike went missing, I think it's more than likely that the Serpent stole the bike and hid it so that he could meet her. If he hadn't Jenny wouldn't have needed to get a ride from him and waer a (literaly) bugged helmet. From there it was just getting Jenny to trust him so he could get closer to the book.

Next when he left her in the woods, I believe it might have been Jenny who got lost trying to follow him. He told her to stat put when he saw someone (some people say they saw His Eminence's shadow in the background) out in the rain. Giving the bike back may have also been a ploy to get Jenny to trust him further.

When he got that phone call in Mummy Ping and the Snake Man of Evil,  the way conversation went, it sounds like the Council knew of Jenny and Tina having the book prior to him meeting her. Proof by the photos Wurst showed to Jenny in Game of Clones.

The Serpent has shown that he likes playing games with his, for lack of better words, victims. He has demonstrated this with Cam, Holger, and Biffy in the Hydra;  Lee on every occasion they meet and, as of Serpent Strike, Jenny. So, yeah he has issues. He is also one of my favorite characters for being a mysterious, and constant villain, but I do hope to see a change from bad to good by the end of the series.
