Violet’s time of death should have been two days ago, according to the police.

She had been staying at a hotel, and two days ago, the housekeeping staff noticed that the “Do Not Disturb” sign was still on her door. This was not unusual, so they did not pay much attention. However, the sign was still there two days later, and the staff became suspicious.

The hotel manager had knocked on the door, but there had been no answer. They then used the master key to open the door and discovered a horrifying scene inside.

“Her body had no external injuries,” Fred lowered his voice as he spoke to Zuko and Lina from the police station. “But they found toxins in her blood after the forensic examination…”

“She was poisoned?” Lina found it puzzling. “Has the composition of the toxin been analyzed?”

“It’s currently under investigation,” Fred replied, leaning against the wall with a heavy heart.

Although Fred was not on good terms with Violet’s family, he was still a Grist. He did not want to see his niece die under his nose either.

“Have you checked the surveillance footage? Did anyone go in and out of Violet’s room these past few days?” Zuko asked.

Fred replied, “She’s been in Centrolis for quite some time. None of us knew she was here. I only found out after investigating the incident at the film studio event.”

“Could she have committed suicide out of fear after committing the crime?” Lina said softly, “After all, poisoning and endangering public safety are serious charges.”

As they had speculated, the police delivered news of the arrest of a suspect in the crime.

Fred, who had anxiously waited for a whole day, perked up. However, the truth stunned him.
