Chapter 17
We returned to Brimstone via the cellar door and headed to Dr Morgan’s office in the hope that she had some information for us.
She did have some news for us.
“I’ve tested the poison on the sword against the substance I found in Leonard’s blood,” Dr Morgan began, “and I don’t know if this is good news for you or not, but it doesn’t match. I’ve done the test several times and came up with the same result.”
We were in Dr Morgan’s office and Stanley and I were sitting in front of her desk and the doctor was behind it with some papers spread out in front of her.
I asked her, “Have you any idea what the substance is?”
Dr Morgan shook her head. “But I’m running more tests on it as we speak.” She pointed to a small, shiny machine resting on a table at the other side of the room. “I’ve borrowed that from a former colleague. It’s the latest model and I should be able to get a match with the poison very soon. It’s working right now on identifying the substance. It’s amazing, isn’t it? We can barely hear the noise it’s making.”
I gave her a quizzical look. “You’ve borrowed it from a former colleague? How? Did you go back into the human world to get it? Or are there more humans living in this world that I don’t know about?”
Dr Morgan flashed me a smile and I saw the twinkle in her eyes. She stood up and moved over to a door next to the machine. She pulled a key from her pocket and inserted it into the lock. “This is my way back into the doctor’s office that I had in the human world. I still rent it. I like to pop back now and again so that I can go on the Internet and get up-to-date information on the latest research work. It doesn’t hurt to keep learning. I never know when an invention or report that I come across online will help me with my work here.” She beckoned us over.
Stanley and I peeped through the door. I was a little disappointed at the scene in front of us and said, “It looks just like this office. You’ve even got the same pictures on the walls.”
Dr Morgan nodded. “What did you expect? Something from the future? I like things a certain way in this world and the human world. If ever you need to go on the Internet in a rush, feel free to use this door. I can get you a spare key.”
“How did this door appear? Has it always been here? Has anyone from the human world seen you come through the door into this world?”
Dr Morgan closed the door, locked it and returned to her chair behind her desk. “That’s a lot of questions all at once, Cassia. The door was put there by Blythe many years ago when I asked for her permission to remain in this world on a full-time basis.
