Perfume Alchemist

Chapter 41
There is no direct passage to the outside world in the Alpha library, so Ah Hao walked up the stairs for a long time before returning to the hall.

It was already late at night when we took the elevator to the upper city.

On this cold night, Ahao accidentally wanted to visit Mrs. Fu's residence again.

It was really yesterday's experience that made him feel very itchy. When he handed in the task today, he originally wanted to work with Annie to continue to solve the mystery of Mrs. Fu's death.

Unexpectedly, Annie directly counted him as having completed the task.

Although the task has been completed, Ah Hao still has quite a few puzzles in his heart.

Why did Mrs. Fu die?Empty perfume bottles all over the floor, mysterious watermelon ketones, why did these appear together in Mrs. Fu's home.

Also, Ah Hao has confirmed through the magistrate's words that that place is not Mrs. Fu's home, and Mrs. Fu rented that place for some other purpose.

What are those purposes?

Seeing that the place where he is now is not far from Mrs. Fu's house, Ah Hao walked all the way there.

Downstairs of Mrs. Fu's house, the yellow warning strips were still blowing in the wind.

After sneaking around downstairs for a while, Ah Hao confirmed that there was no one in Mrs. Fu's house.

So he turned over the wall skillfully, and came to the familiar balcony again.

Ah Hao noticed that the door lock on the balcony was still empty.

He slid the door open and walked in carefully.

The room was much cleaner than when he came yesterday.Only the bloodstains on the ground and the human figures drawn in chalk remain.

The other stacks of perfume bottles and cans have all disappeared.

Ah Hao guessed that it should be taken away by the Public Security Bureau.

Ah Hao sniffed his nose vigorously, he wanted to continue to catch some clues from the smell.

It was still chaotic and noisy, and even the smell of blood had been diluted a lot.

Ah Hao shook his head, turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

He now feels that the kitchen is a more worthwhile place to explore. Because of the interruption of those two people yesterday, he didn't explore the entire kitchen.

That's why he wanted to do it again today no matter what.

Walking towards the dark kitchen, this time Ah Hao boldly opened the closed curtains secretly.

He decided that if anyone found out, he would blame Magistrate Johnny, or let Annie come and get him.

Ah Hao's courage gradually grew.

Taking advantage of the moonlight, Ah Hao took a good look at the kitchen again.

The kitchen is not big, but some places are very strange.

Especially the stove, Ah Hao could tell at a glance, the stove has been transformed into a tool for making perfume!

The stove replaced the alcohol lamp, and on top of it was a distillation apparatus, which was clearly a distillation device!
There are also some bottles and jars next to the distillation unit. It seems that Mrs. Fu is trying to make her own perfume.

Ah Hao twitched his nose, wanting to smell and see what was distilled here.

Ah Hao smelled some perfume beside him.

If that counts as perfume.

The smells of the liquids in front of them were quite chaotic, and none of them exuded a pleasant smell.

Ah Hao frowned, he felt that Mrs. Fu's perfume skills should be quite bad.

At this moment, Ah Hao smelled the salty smell of the sea breeze coming from the side.

This is, the taste of watermelon ketone!

Does Mrs. Fu still have stock here? !

Ah Hao looked around excitedly, he was too short of this raw material now.

Looking around, Ah Hao didn't see the white crystal anymore.

But he found the source of the smell.

——It turned out to be a juicer!

In Ah Hao's eyes, this is a very weird juice extractor.

The brass fuselage has a regular cylindrical shape, and there are several tubes of unknown purpose on the side of the fuselage.

The removable clear top section looks like it holds ingredients, and there's a small opening protruding from the bottom of the clear section.

The sip is almost exactly taller than a regular cup.

wrong!Ah Hao suddenly discovered that there should be a cup in front of the juicer.

And that cup is the one that I took away yesterday!
It's just that it was too dark yesterday, so he didn't realize that there was a juicer behind the cup!

Ahao opened the transparent box above the juicer and found some white crystals in the box.

After picking it up and smelling it, Ah Hao was sure that it was watermelon ketone.

However, how did watermelon ketones end up in the juicer?Why does Mrs. Fu put watermelon ketones in the juicer?
Looking at the juicer in front of him, Ahao gradually had a wild guess!

Watermelon ketones are not put in the juicer, but this juicer is used to produce watermelon ketones!

Mrs. Fu is the producer of watermelon ketone? !
Wen De's words suddenly sounded in Ahao's mind

"I don't know why, but the supplier of raw materials suddenly disappeared, and now all prices have risen a bit."

All the clues swirled in Ah Hao's mind like electricity, and he felt that he was trying to piece together the truth of the matter!
Mrs. Fu probably got some kind of magical treasure. It was a precious item that Sheriff Johnny would also secretly search for in the middle of the night.

Judging from Mrs. Fu's large purchase of perfume bottles, this treasure may be inseparable from perfume.

And the most likely thing is that this treasure can produce flavor raw materials!
So the missing raw material supplier is Mrs. Fu? !

Everything makes sense!
Mrs. Fu originally wanted to use this treasure to make some perfume by herself.

But she didn't expect her own perfume skills to be so poor that she couldn't successfully make perfume at all.

So she came up with the idea of ​​selling perfume raw materials directly.

The time was also right, Ahao received the news that the supply of raw materials had been stopped a few days ago.

And this time point was just a few days before the murder.

Mrs. Fu may have sensed some danger, so she stopped the shipment and wanted to hide herself.Unexpectedly, he was murdered in the end.

It may be that Mrs. Fu accidentally leaked the news about the treasure she got.

From the short contact, Ah Hao could feel that Mrs. Fu is a person who likes to show off. It is difficult for such a person to hide this kind of secret.

Ah Hao remembered what Johnny Sheriff said again, "... that baby may still be here!"

Could it be that.
Ah Hao looked at the juicer in front of him.

This is the treasure they are looking for? !
A machine that produces strange perfume ingredients?

Ah Hao looked at this juicer in disbelief, he felt that there was no problem with his thinking.

Then in this case, the impossible is possible.

Ah Hao picked up the whole juicer and wanted to put it in the bag.

The cylindrical juicer is slender, and Ah Hao's bag can barely fit part of it, but the zipper cannot be closed.

Half of the juicer is still exposed.

Ah Hao removed the white transparent part, which made it not so exaggerated.

I can't control so much anymore, thinking that this might be the treasure that others have been looking for, Ah Hao suddenly felt nervous.

It was as if an enemy would appear at any time, appear from his side and attack him.

He quickly moved the odds and ends on both sides of the table, so that the lack of a juicer on the countertop would not look strange.

Then he picked up the bag containing the juicer, still returned from the balcony, quickly left the house, and ran to where he lived.
