Audrey glanced at Edward and said, "I am sure that the editors of those newspapers have gone through all the information and still don't know who he is.

"Wouldn't it be possible for them to express themselves freely in this way? The king's illegitimate child, a mysterious noble from the southern continent, the love-hate relationship between a young lady from a wealthy family and a poor boy."

"Fors, you are indeed a novelist."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Several people laughed.

"ah!!!!"

Just then, a scream suddenly rang out.

Several people immediately rushed into the banquet room, but found that the sound came from the second floor. The guards who were responsible for guarding the stairs on the second floor rushed up quickly, and the guests also stopped what they were doing and looked around with curiosity or worry.

Hibbert stepped forward to comfort them immediately: "Everyone, don't be nervous, it may just be that the maid broke something clumsily. I will go up and take a look."

He winked at Edward and Audrey, and then they went upstairs together.

Edward then ejected the gold coin: "Earl Hall is in danger."

But before the coin fell, he was sure that something really happened - at the door of one of the rooms on the huge second floor, a terrified maid was sitting, and the guards who rushed up were looking at the room in horror.

"Edward."

Audrey grabbed his arm in horror.

Edward used [Madman on the Right] without hesitation and said with certainty, "It's okay!"

At this time, two figures rushed in at the same time. They were the extraordinary bodyguards hired by the Hall family. However, they quickly retreated with Earl Hall. "Be careful, there is poison in here!"

Edward dodged over and was hit by the strong smell of cigarettes and cigars, as well as a feeling that made him feel very uncomfortable. He quickly glanced inside the room and found that more than a dozen people inside had all fallen to the ground. They were all flushed and sweating, and it was unknown whether they were alive or dead.

"This is... carbon monoxide poisoning?!"

Chapter 291: The Feather Pen Again

"dad."

Audrey ran over with a pale face, "Edward, my father..."

"He is not in danger of death for now." The speaker was one of the Beyonders.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and Hibbert's clenched fingers loosened slightly.

"Fors, Xio, please help move them to another room first."

"good."

Edward walked into the house, opened all the windows, and used the strong wind to blow out the carbon monoxide in the house. Then he quickly looked around and soon saw the burning fireplace. However, fireplaces all have chimneys leading to the roof, so how could he be poisoned by carbon monoxide?

unless...

He walked quickly to the fireplace and said, "It's really blocked..."

This is obviously unreasonable. A wealthy family like the Halls would definitely clean the chimney every now and then. Especially if they decided to have a party in this room, they would have made preparations in advance.

At this moment, a guard exclaimed: "The Earl of Windsor is dead!"

"Congressman Chris is dead too."

"And Viscount Mountbatten...he just stopped breathing."

Everyone present understood that something big had happened!

Most of the core members of the Loen New Party gathered here. If everyone in this room died, Loen's political situation would be in chaos!

"Mr. Gurley, Mr. Kuro, do you have any way to help dad and the others detoxify?"

Hibbert looked at the two Beyonder bodyguards and asked.

The two shook their heads in embarrassment. They were both the best among Sequence 5, so fighting was no problem at all, but detoxifying and saving people was not their forte at all.

Edward then said, "I'll go find someone to help."

Carbon monoxide poisoning has a set of treatment plans in modern times, but in this era of extraordinary abilities, Edward doesn't know what to do. The only thing he can think of is to ask Emlyn for help.

...

Harvest Church.

Edward rushed into the church and shouted, "Emlyn, Emlyn!"

A tall figure stood up from the darkness, and Father Utravsky said in a gentle voice: "Sir, may I ask who you are..."

"I'm Edward, Father."

"Oh, no wonder it feels so familiar." He nodded slightly, "What happened?"

"I need Emlyn's help to save someone! Is he in the church?"

"exist."

It was Emlyn who answered. He walked out with an unhappy look on his face. "What are you doing? Why are you in such a hurry? I'm changing Alicia's clothes."

"Can you treat carbon monoxide poisoning?"

"???"

Emlyn was at a loss, "What...what poisoning?"

"Just... forget it, just come with me and take a look."

Edward dodged and grabbed his arm, then Apparated back to the Hall villa.

"Hey, at least respect me a little." Emlyn said angrily.

Edward didn't even look at him. "The reward is a new puppet."

"real?!"

His eyes lit up and he asked cheerfully, "What's the problem?"

"Carbon monoxide... you know, when you burn a fire in a sealed room, you get poisoned, right?"

Emlyn suddenly realized: "Oh, when the Corn Laws were just repealed, there were a few people committing suicide by burning charcoal every now and then."

"Can you cure it?"

Emlyn was not blindly confident this time: "This... was handled by my father before. Take me to have a look first."

Audrey came forward at this time: "Dad and those who were poisoned have been settled, but four people are still dead... I asked the guards not to make it public, but the guests downstairs still guessed that something had happened. Now Hibbert is downstairs to comfort them, and Xio and Fors have also gone to help."

"Don't worry. When Earl Hall wakes up, he will know what to do. All we have to do is save people."

The three of them walked into the room where the poisoned people were placed. Emlyn quickly checked everyone and then fed them all the potion. "Don't worry, they won't die. But if they want to recover, my father will have to help. He has developed an antidote specifically for this."

"When will my dad wake up?"

Emlyn folded his arms: "If you need, I can wake him up now, but..."

Audrey said hurriedly, "No buts, let him have a good rest."

"Okay, then I'll go look for my dad. They haven't come to see me since they moved last time. They're a pair of old guys who only care about themselves!"

You're not much better!

Edward resisted the urge to complain, sent Emlyn back to the Harvest Church, and then rushed back immediately.

Lilith was comforting Audrey quietly: "Don't worry, Audrey, everything will be fine."

"Yeah, I understand. Thank you Lilith."

"You're welcome."

Edward stepped forward and ejected the gold coin: "Earl Hall's life is in danger."

This time the number is facing up, indicating a negative.

Not long after, Hibbert hurried back, followed closely by two Beyonder bodyguards: "How are they?"

"It's okay, I just won't wake up for a while."

Hibbert took a breath, which meant that he would have to deal with the remaining mess of the banquet by himself.

"Was this an accident?"

"have no idea."

Edward told him what he knew: "At present, it seems that Mr. Hall and his men have been poisoned. The cause of the poisoning is the burning of coal in a closed space, which produces a poisonous gas. Originally, this poisonous gas should be discharged from the chimney.

"But I just checked the chimney and it's blocked."

"Impossible! I had the chimney cleared yesterday." Hibbert said sullenly, "So, someone blocked the chimney?"

Edward looked at the gold coin with the number facing up in his hand: "It doesn't seem to be the case."

The Beyonder named Kuro said at this time: "Grey and I were on the second floor, one on the roof, and the other on the roof. We didn't notice anyone approaching from beginning to end. Of course, we can't rule out that the person who came is much stronger than us."

Far beyond them, that would mean being a demigod, which is completely beyond their capabilities.

"Will it be blocked before the banquet starts?"

"There is only one person who came uninvited during this period." It was another Beyonder who spoke.

Edward asked in surprise, "Who?"

They both looked at him and said at the same time: "You."

"But you always stay in Miss Hall's room."

Edward: "…"

Audrey suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, where is the maid?"

Everyone was stunned at the same time, and then reacted.

Yes, if it weren't for the maid's scream, Earl Hall and the others might have been poisoned to death quietly.

But what about the maid?

...

In a luxuriously decorated room.
