Meet the principal
Act 303. Macon Hydrasia
Olmsted's industrial zone is located in the south of the city. Due to the topography here, Olmsted is prone to northerly winds. This was done in order to prevent factory smoke from affecting residents.
The pharmacy store in Macon that Mrs. Freya mentioned was on the edge of the industrial area.
In fact, there are more than just factories in the industrial zone. Some poor workers will live here for the sake of money, not to mention some factories that provide food and accommodation, and naturally let their employees live in the workshops.
The economy of the Midland Federation is developing rapidly, but these workers, who are the backbone of it, can only huddle in small and dark rooms. It has to be said to be an irony.
There are rich living facilities on the edge of the industrial area, and pharmacy stores are very popular for workers who are often injured and are unwilling to spend money to go to the hospital.
Reiner took a carriage to the address mentioned by Mrs. Freya, followed by Claire. As for Mrs. Freya, she was still sleeping soundly in the hotel.
It was working time now, the street was surprisingly quiet, and few stores were open. Reiner saw the store called Macon Pharmacy Store. The door was locked. He touched it a little and found that a certain amount of dust had accumulated on it. , Reiner saw the spider web in the corner. Obviously, this place was deserted for more than a day or two.
"It feels eerie here."
Claire said that due to the smog caused by the burning coal in the factory, the sky here is always covered with a layer of lead-gray clouds, and the backlit street naturally looks darker.
"Let's go in and take a look."
Reiner took a look around to make sure no one noticed, then used magic to pick the lock and walked into the pharmacy store through the side door.
"Isn't this bad?"
Claire was still a little resistant, but when she saw that Reiner had entered the house and left her alone outside, she hesitated for a moment and then followed in.
The room was dark and smelled of dust. Claire followed Reiner and subconsciously grabbed his clothes.
Upon seeing this, Reiner raised his finger, and the low light spell immediately illuminated the entire store.
As you can see, this is a small pharmacy store. There are common medicines on the shelves. Most of them are used to treat common diseases such as colds and fevers. There are also some medicines for treating skin injuries and bruises.
Reiner even discovered some drugs that enhance male abilities, which are very close to the needs of industrial areas.
There is already a layer of dust on the shelves. According to experience, no one has been here for at least half a month.
Reiner found a series of small footprints, which must be traces of Mrs. Freya's visit yesterday.
Finding nothing in the store on the first floor, Reiner walked up the creaking stairs to the second floor.
The second floor is where Macon lives and lives. It can be seen that his bedroom is relatively small, and the drawers and closet doors are tightly closed. It does not look like he left in a hurry.
There was nothing special about the bathroom or the bathroom, and Reiner didn't find any notes or anything like that here.
I turned around and found nothing.
Reiner and Claire left the pharmacy store. Instead of going back directly, they turned around and went to the store next door.
Next to the pharmacy store was a bakery, and Reiner walked in.
The bread on the shelf looked unappetizing, and I didn’t know how long it had been there. The boss probably thought that no one would come to buy anything at this time, so he was still napping. He didn’t wake up until Reiner walked to the counter. come over.
"what to buy?"
The boss asked, glancing at Reiner and Claire behind him. He was confused, how could someone wearing such good clothes come here?
"I want to ask about the pharmacy store next door."
Reiner took out two silver coins. For most workers here, this is already the income they can get after working hard for several days.
"You mean Macon?"
The boss frowned, but still accepted the silver coins neatly.
"I'm not familiar with him. It should be said that he's not familiar with the people on this street. Except when buying medicine, he won't talk to others at other times, and he won't open the door on holidays. If it weren't for his medicine The effect is really good, maybe no one will patronize it at all.”
He said, there was no hint of lying in his words.
"About half a month ago, he suddenly disappeared and the store never opened again. No one knows where he went."
"Has anyone ever come here to look for him and make you more impressed?"
Reiner thought of his aunt Celia. Now that he thought about it, the reason why she chose to stay in Olmsted may have a lot to do with Macon.
"That's not true. No one has come to Macon. Even after he left, no one came to inquire about his situation. You are still the first person to mention his name in more than half a month."
The boss smiled. It seemed that the income from the two silver coins made him very happy.
"I understand, there's nothing else."
Reiner and Claire immediately left the bakery, and they visited several nearby stores. The results they obtained were similar to what the bakery owner said.
"It seems that Macon did leave Olmsted immediately after Aunt Celia's death."
Looking at the notes, Reiner concluded.
"Then what you are looking for will be taken away by him?"
Claire tilted her head and guessed.
"It's possible, but only if Macon is indeed the person we're looking for."
Reiner put away his notes, came to the street corner, and hailed a rental carriage.
"Are we going back now?"
Claire was not very good at this kind of mental thinking. After a whole morning of tossing, she was already hungry.
"I'll take you to get something to eat first, and then we have to go to Aunt Celia's house."
Reiner replied, making Claire feel a little confused while her eyes shone.
"Why do you want to go there? Didn't you say before that you couldn't find any clues?"
The carriage stopped just in time, and Reiner motioned for Claire to get on first. After he was seated and Reiner gave the address, he continued.
"Did you notice a big problem at the pharmacy store in Macon just now?"
"What?"
Claire recalled what she saw for a while, but she still didn't know what problem Reiner was referring to.
"Macon Hydashia is an alchemist, and the store he opened is also a pharmacy. However, we have not seen any traces of the existence of an alchemy workshop. Isn't this a suspicion?"
Reiner explained as he recalled what his sister Phyllis had done yesterday before leaving the house and going to the backyard.
If he guessed correctly, Phyllis should have extracted part of the soil in the backyard for testing, because if there is an alchemy laboratory in Aunt Celia's house or many alchemy experiments have been conducted, then the soil nearby will definitely A certain amount of magical residual material was detected.
"Did she already know this?"
Reiner suddenly felt that this sister was much more powerful than he imagined.
