Chapter 55 The truth of gemstone disease
(Anti-theft)
Visiting Nightingale Nursing School is faster than expected.
Because it takes time to print the telegram and reply, Miss Ke Yao and Ms. Piris agreed that once Cynthia replied, she would call her immediately to notify her.
As for the cost of the telegram, Ms. Piris did not ask Miss Ke Yao to bear it, but said that this was her responsibility.
Seeing that things would not go further, Lu Yuan and Ke Yao took a public carriage and then returned to the detective office.
Although Lu Yuan suggested that the lunch problem could be solved in a restaurant, Miss Ke Yao refused.
Miss Ke Yao carefully discussed with Lu Yuan the expenses of eating outside, the poor skills of Beckland's restaurant, and the cheap and affordable cooking for her own meals.
Of course, the most important reason is to go along the way. Nightingale Nursing School is located in the northeastern suburbs of Beckland, while Detective Firm is located in the downtown area of Beckland. No matter where you go from Beckland, it will be very convenient.
However, because of the lack of time, Ke Yao returned to the office and did not make any luxurious meals, vegetable salads, sausage hot dogs, and a soup made up the whole lunch.
The only highlight is probably Miss Ke Yao's cooking skills.
"I don't know when Ms. Piris will call us." Lu Yuan said while eating hot dogs: "In the afternoon, should we visit Dr. Arthur Morstein, or the Lord Viscount?"
"I'm more inclined to go to Dr. Morstein," Su Mei said, eating vegetable salad with cream on her mouth: "Go to find Mr. Jefferson Longbottom, at most we can know where some of the cursed gems are going."
"But go to Dr. Morstein and we may be able to get more important details about this gem disease."
"After all, we need enough professional doctors to help us get closer to the truth about this gem disease."
As she said this, Su Mei looked at Ke Yao: "Miss Ke Yao, what do you think?"
"I'm closer to agreeing with your opinion." Ke Yao looked at Su Mei and nodded: "Mr. Longbottom is a big man who has a lot of money. It will be difficult for us to gain his trust before we have enough evidence."
"Besides, what we know now and what we want to say to him is likely to be kicked out by him as a psychopath."
"Relatively speaking, Dr. Arthur Morstein urgently needs clues about gem disease, and the information we have obtained now must be very valuable to him."
"Since Dr. Arthur Morstein can enter the newspaper to find clues to patients with gem disease, it also means that he has a certain understanding of gem disease."
"This is a visit that helps and benefits each other needs," Miss Ke Yao concluded.
"About this, I agree more with visiting Dr. Arthur Morstein."
Miss Ke Yao looked at Lu Yuan: "Mr. Lu Yuan, what about your opinion?"
"I choose to respect the lady's opinion." Lu Yuan said quietly.
...
...
In fact, the three people have the same inner tendencies. Although Mr. Longbottom controls the black market of Beckland's gems, those cursed gems are likely to be circulated in Mr. Longbottom's hands, but Mr. Longbottom can be said to be a big man who will sneeze and shake. It is really irrational to visit rashly.
After making this decision, after lunch and even having afternoon tea, the three of them chose to go straight to Dr. Arthur Morstein's clinic.
The doctor's clinic is located on Baker Street. You can see the dark green sign from afar, and it simply says Dr. Arthur. It's really easy to find.
After getting off the carriage and paying for the carriage, the three of them walked into the clinic and saw an old man reading a newspaper in his seat.
His hair and beard are all white, and he looks at least sixty years old, but he is energetic and has a very strong body.
Hearing the footsteps, the old man raised his head: "Where are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Miss Ke Yao walked up: "We came for the notice you published in the Wuhe Newspaper."
"Notice?" He was stunned: "May I ask you..."
"Are you Dr. Arthur Mostan?" Su Mei asked behind Ke Yao.
"I'm right." The old man replied.
Then Su Mei nodded: "We came for gem disease."
"Gem disease?" Arthur Morstein narrowed his eyes, his eyes instantly sharpened.
He stood up and paced around his chair twice.
"Where have you seen similar patients?"
"About this." Lu Yuan smiled and took out a gem from the bag he carried with him.
The gem is as big as a pigeon egg and is sealed in a plastic bag. It is a poor-quality ruby and a sample found and collected on the Viscountess' bed at that time.
"You will understand after reading this."
"Is this?" Arthur Mosten took the plastic bag, but did not open it rashly. He observed through the plastic bag and asked while asking.
"We suspect this is what a patient with gem disease will eventually become," Lu Yuan said. "It's just that we don't have evidence, so we'll come and ask you for an answer."
"What does a patient with gem disease end up becoming?" Arthur Morstein said this silently, and his face gradually became solemn.
"Do you allow me to destroy this gem?" Arthur Mosten looked at Lu Yuan and said with a look of urgency.
Lu Yuan thought for a moment: "If this can help you further understand gem disease, then we're more than happy."
"Thank you for your generosity," said Arthur Morstein excitedly. "If you are happy, you can watch my operations beside you."
"That's so great." Lu Yuan nodded and said.
So in front of the three people, Arthur Mosten put on thick sterilized gloves and carefully took out the ruby from the plastic bag.
Lu Yuan and Su Mei looked at each other and understood that Arthur Mosten had certain research on gem disease, at least he knew that he could not touch these cursed gems directly, otherwise he might suffer the same bad luck.
Then he used forceps to fix the gemstone, and carefully cut a small piece of gemstone with a scalpel as a carving knife. After processing the slice, he finally made a specimen for microscope observation.
Lu Yuan and the other two just watched quietly, not even daring to speak, for fear of disrupting Dr. Arthur Morstein's rhythm.
After the doctor put the specimen on a microscope and looked at it, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's true."
"Did you find something?" Miss Ke Yao asked.
