Chapter 31 Can't Restrain (Five Watches ~ Fat Dragon Asks for Subscription ~ Asks for a Monthly Pass ~)
Amy died.
Poisoned.
The butler who arrived immediately confirmed this, and at the same time, brought a bad news:
"The ritual didn't work on Bitos, Raul."
"Their souls completely dissipated with death, seven days faster than normal."
The butler said.
Jason didn't shy away from Gerald's motion.
The banquet hall, which was still lively a moment ago, was only Gerald, Jason and Denise at this time, as well as his personal attendants.
Gerald's brow furrowed.
If the two murders had not been taken seriously before, the appearance of a third had raised the vigilance of the ruler of Hanse Harbor.
In particular, the failure of the ritual made Gerald feel the air of danger.
"Go and line up a convoy of people to protect our mothers."
Jason's aunt would return from the manor outside the harbor in the evening to attend tomorrow's wedding in person, and by this time, it should be close to Hans Harbor.
"Yes, sir."
The butler immediately bowed down.
Just as the butler arranged for the attendant to go, Gerald spoke again.
"Wait."
"Line up for another person to go to the embassy."
Gerald commanded.
Although he didn't like the daughter of the Grand Duke of 'Swallowburg', it didn't mean that he would let the other party have trouble in Hans Harbor.
The two teams of attendants left the mansion one after the other.
The butler again arranged for the ritual and began to ask the waiters, the cook, and the relatives.
Jason is not among them,
He walked around the dining table.
Before that, Jason had carefully examined Amy's body.
Unlike Bitos and Raul, who have a faint smell of food, Amy doesn't have any smell of food on her!
"Not the same person?"
"Or ......"
"A different approach was used?"
Unlike Bitos and Raul, Amy was murdered in public.
The former is more secretive and uses a lot more methods.
And the latter?
More sophisticated planning is required.
So precise that the other party can confirm that Amy will be the first to eat a roast leg of lamb!
This is not an easy thing to do.
After all, Amy was fighting Denise.
He had seen clearly before that Amy had been staring at Denise.
In other words, what Dennis chooses, Amy will choose.
And to confirm what Denise chooses, it seems......
Subconsciously, Jason turned his head and looked at Denise, who was standing on the side of the table, looking left and right, quietly reaching out and tearing a roast leg of lamb and stuffing it directly into his mouth.
Well, it's not that hard.
Very good to confirm.
As for poison?
Have you ever seen a deceased who is afraid of poison?
Looking at Denis, whose eyes were shining, and who wanted to tear another leg of mutton, Jason grabbed the back of the other's neck.
"This is one of the evidences."
Jason said.
"That's food, too."
Dennis retorted.
However, instead of touching the leg of mutton, he looked at the crispy roast suckling pig on one side, ran over and picked up the whole crispy suckling pig, opened his mouth to think about the position of the lower mouth, and finally locked the protruding position of the pig's nose.
Looking at Denise who was gnawing happily.
It's hard for Jason to imagine how obsessed he was with that leg of lamb not so long ago.
Well?
Jason was stunned.
With Denise's character, he is not interested in one thing for no reason.
And although the roast leg of lamb is delicious, the crispy roast suckling pig is not inferior.
There is a high probability that Dennis will hesitate between the two.
Instead of going straight to the roast leg of lamb!
Did anyone hint in advance?
Jason thought silently.
"Did Denise tell you about roasting a leg of lamb in advance?"
Jason asked.
"Yes!"
"On my way to the beach in the afternoon, I heard the waiters talking about today's roast leg of lamb made with a special recipe, which is fragrant when marinated, and even more crispy and juicy when grilled......."
Listening to Denise's description, Jason looked at the still warm roast leg of lamb and swallowed secretly.
No way!
You can't eat it!
You can only resist the weak, secondary toxicity of food, and it is impossible to resist this deadly toxicity!
Jason warned himself from the bottom of his heart.
can
Still involuntarily raised his hand.
The peristalsis of the stomach made Jason's brain quickly lose his mind.
Just talking about toxicity, not talking about measurement, is a hooligan!
I have digestive organs that are resistant to weak, secondary toxicity, so I shouldn't have any problems with a little often, right?
Jason thought, fingers touching the roast leg of lamb.
Fat and sauce immediately stained my fingertips.
Jason took his finger in his mouth.
The sauce is slightly sweet, and there is no mutton smell in the fat, but it is full of mutton umami, hmm...... His mouth tingled a little, but Jason quickly came to his senses.
Then he saw Denise look at him with strange eyes.
It seems to see the same kind.
Jason felt a sense of humiliation.
"I'm investigating."
Jason emphasized.
Denise looked at Jason suspiciously.
"This kind of lethal toxin should be very rare."
"Depending on where it grows, where it circulates, it can effectively help us lock down the suspect."
"Even, catch the prisoner directly."
Jason explained in a serious way.
"Is that so?"
Denise still didn't believe it, and it always felt that Jason was weak at this time.
"That's it!"
"Jason was right!"
"This toxin comes from burning irises, which are very rare flower varieties and can only be found in one place!"
Gerald walked over and agreed with Jason's words.
"Where?"
Denise was immediately drawn to attention.
"Yanbao!"
Gerald said in a low tone.
"Yanbao?"
Denise blinked.
It felt familiar, but I couldn't remember where.
Then, he lowered his head and glanced at the crispy suckling pig that still had half of it left in his hand, and then he thought.
"It's Gerald's fiancée's territory!"
"Yes!"
Gerald nodded, and then, looking directly at Jason, asked, "Jason, would you like to go to the embassy with me?" ”
The ruler of Hanse harbor had anger and joy in his eyes.
Jason knew exactly what the anger and joy were.
The anger comes from the murderer's killing after killing.
Glad?
Naturally, it is possible to dissolve the marriage contract through this incident.
Jason, who is following in the footsteps of the main quest, naturally doesn't want to miss anything or fail the mission.
So, I nodded very simply.
"I'll go too!"
When Denise saw that Jason was going, she immediately raised her hand.
"Arrange the carriage."
Naturally, Gerald would not object, and immediately commanded.
A few minutes later, a carriage followed by a group of guards was speeding towards the embassy district of Hans Harbor.
Unlike the docklands and commercial streets, which are connected together, the Embassy Quarter is self-contained, and from Delen Street to the Embassy Quarter, you need to pass through at least two commercial streets and a residential area.
And just as the carriage had just driven out of the residential area and approached the embassy, Jason's nose couldn't help twitching, and he smelled the food!
Rich!
And, familiar!
