Mystery: The Stars Returner

Tsk, I have already learned to answer this.

Hasta smiled and told Will not to be too nervous. Even if there is an outer god from the past behind the scissors, he is still isolated from the original barrier and has very limited influence on the real world.

Will and Ouroleus are both mercury snakes that symbolize destiny. They have been able to reach this point, and they are loved by fate.

Destiny will not easily abandon its favored ones.

"No matter what, you should be responsible for all this anyway. I am just a child who has not fully grown up."

Will looked like I've become dependent on you.

"Last time Ourolius asked me where you were hiding."

"Don't scare me with that stupid snake. He must be staying with the true Creator now."

"You guys really understand each other."

"Ha, you don't have to say that."

After chatting with Hastur for a while, Will's mood improved a lot.

Regarding the scissors, although he couldn't help much, he gave Hastur a reminder, saying that in the next few days, the fate of Backlund will fluctuate, and the fate of many people will be affected by what happened tonight. and be affected.

"By the way, remember to ask for a new flavor of ice cream. I've been eating that one lately and I'm almost tired of it."

After sending Will away, Hastur also exited the dream and began to think about what Will's reminder meant.

The next day, when Hasta finished washing and went downstairs to have breakfast, Butler Neil came in in a panic. He hesitated to speak, but he waited until Hasta finished breakfast before he came over.

"what happened?"

"My Lord Earl, this is what happened." Butler Neil waved away the other maids before continuing: "Many nobles who came to the charity party last night suffered from diarrhea around early this morning and were rushed to the hospital."

"There are currently more than 20 known people, and the number of sick people is still increasing."

"There are already many rumors that this incident was caused by food poisoning caused by attending a charity gala last night."

Hastur listened silently, this is what Will wants to remind himself, right?

Food poisoning?

What a fresh reason. I tasted a few delicacies last night and found nothing unusual.

And when they left, none of the nobles were in ill health.

If there was anything out of the ordinary...the wind was a bit unusual.

"Did you call the police for such a big thing?"

"Not yet." Butler Neil said worriedly: "This matter is related to the reputation of the earl. Wouldn't it be bad to call the police?"

"Since there is a major problem, it is natural to call the police. Only by investigating clearly can we prevent rumors from spreading everywhere."

"I understand, I'll do it right away."

After Butler Neil left, Hastur was silent for a while, then got up and took the car to Earl Hall's house.

He wanted to see if Hibbert was also abnormal. After all, this was his future uncle.

When he arrived at Earl Hall's house, Hibbert had already gone out for work, and there were only Audrey and Countess Hall at home.

Facing his arrival, Countess Hall smiled and welcomed him warmly.

Susie, who smelled the smell, also ran downstairs. As for Audrey, she was getting dressed up with the help of several maids.

After knowing that Hibbert was okay, Hastur began to think about this incident again and the changes it would cause.

"Wang?"

Susie saw his troubles and seemed to want to help.

Hasta thought for a while and said with a smile: "Maybe you can really help me this time."

"Wang!"

"Susie, you look happy?"

Beautifully and exquisitely dressed, Audrey came down the stairs from the second floor with a bright smile on her face.

……

In an office on the second floor of Mrs. Vinson's cake shop in Qiao Wood District, on the right, Leonard, who had been anxious all night, received another case not long after he came to the office.

He opened it and saw that this case was related to him. No wonder it was sent to him beyond the Nighthawks.

Food poisoning incident at charity gala?

Leonard was stunned for a while after reading the content. He had eaten a lot of food last night, but he didn't feel anything, let alone being poisoned.

And this is a charity party hosted by Hastur. Can he let others pour dirty water on his head?

After just thinking for a moment, Leonard placed the case on the table, with his feet on the table and his body leaning back slightly.

I believe Hastur will find out this case on his own, so there is no need for him to worry.

"Sometimes the old man seems to have noticed something."

Thinking of this, Leonard shouted a few words in his heart, and after a while, the old man's voice came out.

"Poisoning is not impossible."

"???" Leonard became interested, "Old man, you can't just say half of what you said."

"wind."

After the old man left these words, he fell completely silent. No matter how much Leonard scratched his head, he could never get any more response.

Wind...the poison hidden in the wind?

But I also smelled it, so why didn’t anything happen?

Also, who is behind this matter? It’s really courageous to dare to offend someone like Hastur.

At night, Leonard received the latest information from the Nighthawks.

Intelligence pointed out that this incident was indeed poisoning.

This was a judgment made personally by a bishop from the Mother Earth Church after examining many patients.

According to the bishop, there are many seemingly non-toxic medicinal powders that can induce corresponding symptoms once they enter the human body.

Making a medicinal powder that can cause diarrhea is a very simple matter for a qualified pharmacist.

As for how to poison, it can be spread through alcohol, food, or through the air.

Is it that simple?

Leonard was speechless after reading the report. He thought he could dig out something deeper, but he didn't expect that it was just a simple poisoning case, and it was only diarrhea, and no lives were caused.

Perhaps it is precisely because this is not a highly poisonous thing that people are unsuspecting.

It seems that the purpose of the people behind the scenes is very clear. This is to demonstrate against Hastur.

……

At the gate of Graylingt's villa, Graylingt was obviously stunned for a moment when he saw Hastur, Audrey and Susie visiting, but he soon warmly welcomed Hastur and Audrey in.

"Wang."

Susie suddenly barked at Gray Lint, as if she was targeting a certain criminal suspect.

Hastur and Audrey also looked at Gray Lint with strange eyes.

"Did something happen?" Gray Linte was a little overwhelmed by such a look.

Hastur looked at him for a while and said seriously: "We are looking for the suspect."

"crime suspect??"

Gray Linte had a question mark on his forehead, was he a suspect?

"You heard right, you are the suspect we are looking for." Audrey also cooperated with a straight face.

"Woof!" Susie also cooperated.

"No, no, Hastur, Miss Audrey, why can't I understand what you are talking about?"

Seeing the troubled and confused look on Gray Lint's face, Hastur said slowly: "Have you lost two male servants in your family recently?"

"I don't know. These matters are handled by the housekeeper at home."

Gray Lint led Hastur, Audrey, and Susie into the door, and at the same time asked the housekeeper to call for questioning.

"It is true that the two servants responsible for pruning and gardening have not shown up today." Gray Linte's housekeeper responded cooperatively.

"Where were the two of them last night?"

"Their work usually ends before six o'clock in the evening. They also showed up to have dinner together last night. As for later things, I didn't pay attention to them all the time."

Hastur asked a few more questions, then asked the butler to leave first, and then followed Gray Lint to the study.

At this time, Gray Lint could no longer suppress his curiosity, "Hasta, you are so mysterious tonight that it almost confuses me."

Hastur just smiled and asked: "Have you developed a medicinal powder that can make people have diarrhea?"

"There seems to be such a medicine." Gray Lint said uncertainly: "You know, I have always been obsessed with various researches. Sometimes I forget about it when I am busy."

After hearing this, Hastur was basically sure that Gray Lint really didn't know anything about the situation.

"Hasta, you're not really going to interrogate me as a prisoner, are you?" Gray Linte became a little anxious, "Since I came back from your place last night, I didn't even go out the door all day today."

Hastur waved to him to calm down, and then patiently told him what happened today.

When he saw Susie today, Hastur thought of a feasible investigation method.

Since no useful clues can be found through occult means, then normal channels should be used to solve the problem.

Susie, a good hunting dog and a future fantasy dog, has a very sensitive nose.

The bodies of the two people last night were still there, so he asked Susie to help smell them, and then followed the scent left by their activities all the way to Gray Lint.

Coupled with the latest information coming back, and Gray Linte himself being a pharmacist, the matter has basically come to light at this point.

The two people who secretly poured kerosene last night were the servants of Graylingt's house. They also stole the medicine developed by Graylingt and spread the powder in the air.

When the wind blows, it blows these colorless and odorless tiny dusts to the party area in front, causing people close to the garden to suffer from diarrhea.

Apart from the invisible hands, that's all that happened.

As for why the other party chose Gray Lint, the reason was very simple. He had a good relationship with Gray Lint.

Moreover, the other party doesn't care at all whether he or she can find out the truth. He or she just uses this matter to lose his or her face in the aristocratic circle.

To be more precise, this is a demonstration to oneself.
