Chapter 64: Poisoning
"Ahh
The rich ladies around Ma Lina covered their mouths and exclaimed, and the young talents were also stunned on the spot, but there were also those who reacted quickly and stepped forward in two steps, ready to help Ma Lina up.
However, the young man's outstretched hand was blocked by a figure.
An excellent opportunity to brush up on the presence of Marlena, just missed, the young man couldn't help but be a little angry, but he didn't show it.
This figure is none other than Su Wen.
With a flash and a ghostly step, Su Wen instantly crossed the distance of dozens of meters and came to the crowd. These young talents unconsciously took a step back, leaving just a circle.
Su Wen squatted down and gently helped Marlena up.
“...... Su ......"
At this time, Ma Lina did not lose consciousness, and when she saw Su Wen coming, she gently showed a reassuring smile. Although she was still awake, Marlena was in a weak state of inability, and even Su Wen's name was incomplete.
Because of the exclamations of the ladies, more and more eyes were focused, and the noisy chatter became clearer and clearer under the beautiful music.
"It's not a big deal, Miss Marlena is overtired and hasn't eaten much, and she suddenly loses her strength due to anemia. ”
When Warrent rushed over, he happened to hear Su Wen's words.
Of course, the young talents were very dissatisfied with Su Wen's uninvited guest, the main reason was that he stole the limelight that should have belonged to one of them, and almost none of the young people present knew Su Wen.
"This gentleman, if you have a little medical skills in the next place, why don't you let you come down and treat Miss Marlena one or two?"
"That's right, I happen to be a student in the natural department of the Academy of Magic, maybe my recovery technique can help?"
The opening of these two young men also aroused the echo of many people, this kind of heaven-sent opportunity is not prepared for a young man of unknown origin like Su Wen.
In the echo, there were also some unceremonious noises that made Su Wen get out of the way.
Su Wen's face was calm, he just turned sideways slightly, glanced at the two young men who spoke, and then said, "Miss Marlena needs some air, please give up your place if you are troublesome." ”
This one turned sideways, revealing the orange medal on Su Wen's chest that was flashing under the light.
Completely different from the blue-green on the chests of the young people present, the warm color is the guest medal.
Some sharp-eyed youths hurriedly closed their mouths and moved their steps, wanting to quietly hide out of Su Wen's sight. The two who had just spoken closed their mouths in amusement and took a few steps back in fear. There were also some young people outside the wandering creatures who still wanted to speak, but they were immediately covered by the people next to them and dragged aside.
"What's going on?"
As Warrent spoke, the crowd automatically left a gap for him, and the young men hurriedly saluted and called for greetings to the Duke.
"Miss Marlena is exhausted and a little exhausted, and needs to go down and rest. Su Wen looked at Warrent and said seriously, his tone was calm, but Warrent smelled something else.
Warren nodded, then waved his hand, and dismissed the melon-eating crowd, who were surprised by the strange man who did not greet the duke, and at the same time obeyed the arrangement and left the place of the incident.
Su Wen could only check Marlena's poisoning status, but he couldn't see what kind of poison it was. Only the toxins that Su Wen understands can be seen by him at a glance, and the ones stored in the knowledge base are all toxins that do not exist in this world.
"Let me see. ”
Ellie squeezed through the crowd, crouched down with a serious face, and put her hand on Marina's arm. The moment it touched Marina's skin, a slender tentacle split from the palm of her hand and pierced it like a needle.
After extracting a bit of blood, Ellie retrieved the tentacles, then withdrew her palm and licked the remaining blood from her palm.
"The toxins have not yet spread into the blood circulation. Ellie whispered, "I'll help Sister Marlena to the back first." ”
Sure enough, it was poisoned.
Warrent's face remained unchanged, but the fist at his side was quietly clenched. The repeated assassinations of Marlena are constantly challenging Warrent's bottom line, but there has been no new progress in the investigation of the mastermind behind the scenes.
The elders, though they were old and stubborn and conservative, would never believe that the old men who had dedicated their lives to the snow castle would do something to kill their fellow citizens, unless the old fox was hidden too deep and even Warrent did not discover his true nature.
Su Wen tried to release a clear technique that could clear the abnormal state, but the effect was not good, it only made Marlena slowly close her eyes and open them a little.
"Let me do it. Ellie stretched out her hands, one hand around Marina's neck, the other around her waist, got up slightly, and picked up Marlena in a princess position, then turned to Warrent, "Lord Duke, where is the spare room?"
"Over there, David, you take Miss Ellie. Warrent pointed to the back porch, then lowered his voice: "Hurry up and get the doctor and the priest in place, Marlena is poisoned, and also, lock off the scene." ”
"Miss Ellie, this way, please. David held out his hand and pointed Ellie in the right direction.
Ellie, who was holding Marina, ran over with a puff, her face not red or panting, which surprised the young people.
Warrent had too many reasons not to leave the scene, and, moreover, there were more important things waiting for him to do.
He needs to keep the whole scene under control and avoid causing a riot.
Warrent returned to his place, explained Marlena's story lightly to several heavyweights, and continued to talk and laugh. On the surface, this is the case—but in Warrent's heart, he longs to be by Marina's side immediately. The daughter who finally came back, how could she let her go again!
Even the dukes have times when they can't help themselves.
If this matter spreads, no one can say what kind of impact it will have.
Su Wen glanced around, and there were no red dots on the map, and in terms of quantity, except for Su Wen and the others, they were also the same as just now. That is, no one ever went in or out of the banquet hall throughout the second half of the banquet.
The murderer must still be in the venue!
The ball was not affected by the vignette and went on as usual, except for Marina, the "heroine" who should have been invited by many young talents, and even so, the atmosphere of the ball did not go down too much, and the men and women still slipped onto the dance floor, enjoying the joy of music and dance.
Lawson and the young lady of a certain family are the focus of the entire dance floor, although Lawson looks like five big and three thick, but his dancing skills are surprisingly good. It's just that in the midst of spinning and stepping, every now and then, I will look at the back porch.
Although Warrent only gave Su Wen a look, Su Wen also read a father's request from it.
This murderer, let him Su Wen find out!
