845 The Unusual Locals
Hearing this, Wynter quietly took out the earrings. But she didn’t feel any resentful energy coming from it.
But items from the Badival Times were indeed trickier. After all, there was a large part of history and
culture that had not been recorded.
Wynter could only make a few guesses through the earrings. “Where did you get the earrings? Did anything out of the ordinary happen when you excavated the tomb?”
Haddon took out a map and drew a circle. “It was around this area. There were also a few locals there. There wasn’t anything special inside the tomb and everything went smoothly.”
He gave it some thought and continued, “The only thing unusual were those locals. They would always cling to one of the women in our team, Blanca.
“They wouldn’t argue or fight with her. They would just follow her around, telling her to be careful and not
get too tan. They were also very friendly and had given her lots of food and fruits.
*So, we didn’t pay much attention to them at first. We even thought of the locals as honest and kind.
“But after that, they continued to follow Bianca everywhere. Their expressions would change whenever she talked to someone else. They would tell her that unmarried women should not have too many relationships with others.
“One day, Bianca wanted to survey the area, but the locals refused to let her go. The situation was only
resolved after one of the local heads came out.
“But despite that, they continued to look at Bianca as if she was some sort of criminal. They had even
gone as far as disrupting our work.”
Hearing that, Wynter looked up and asked, “Where is Bianca now? Did anything strange happen to her
after she returned home?”
Haddon opened the window and said, “I know what you’re worried about, Ms. Wynter.
“I was also worried something might happen if the locals continued to follow her, so I arranged for her to return home. She’s completely fine. I’m the one who seems to be caught in something.”
*She’s fine-” Wynter lowered her gaze and looked at the earrings.
Most objects tended to follow people if there was some obsession coming from within. But she’d only be able to purify the object by finding
wrong with the earrings.
ut the root of the obsession. But there didn’t seem to be anything
The reason behind the locals‘ weird infatuation with Blanca was also unknown.
The weirdest thing about the case was that Bianca was fine. However, Haddon was the one who got caught up in something.
Where exactly was the problem here?
Wolf wasn’t able to smell anything from the earrings either. So what exactly wan It?
How was everything connected?
This was the first time Wynter felt like things weren’t as simple as they seemed.
She thought things through and said, “I would like to meet Blance myself.”
Haddon nodded. “However, this matter-”
“Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone about it. I just want to find the cause behind the situation. You also understand that my main profession is a doctor.
“You’ve just returned from Iskador. It’s normal for you to care about your team members.”
Haddon laughed after hearing Wynter’s words. “Ms. Wynter, you’re still as humorous as ever. With your reputation as a doctor, I probably would not be able to afford your services . ”
“I was also listening to you when you were on stage . I never expected you to be the daughter of the Quinnell family.
“Mr. Quinnell Senior will be able to get better now. He also won’t need to worry about the company’s business since he has a granddaughter like you.”
After that, Haddon looked at her sincerely and said, “Out of all the businessmen from his generation, Mr. Quinnell has my utmost respect. He had a hard time back then.
