Vennela Bennet And The Soaked Cloak

Blood and Bromine

Vennela woke up the next morning at 7 as usual. She had a coffee and went to the agency after dropping Sam at the kennel. She entered the agency.  The receptionist at the counter said, "  Congratulations, Miss Bennet . You have been promoted. I will ask someone to lead you to your new cabin." She went to her cabin. It was not too big but it was homely.  A vase was kept on the centre of the table with fresh orchids and lilies in it.  An air conditioner cum heater was fixed on a wall. On the table there was a name plate with : 'VENNELA BENNET --- Detective, Samson detective agency'.  She sat on the chair and opened her file of her first case ever and set to work. She spent the hour writing all the data of the case. After an hour or so her telephone rang.  It was the receptionist saying that a lady Vennela Bennet had come to see her.  She asked the receptionist to send her in.  Her aunt came in. Vennela asked her to sit down. Vennela said, "Auntie, I want you to clarify truthfully if you are not guilty. Please don't lie about it." Her aunt said, " Vennela, believe me. I am not guilty. " Vennela further asked, " Are you allergic to Bromine?What exactly happens to you if you come in contact with Bromine? " " If I get exposed to Bromine gas I have difficulty in breathing, a splitting headache, watery eyes and dizziness . But if I get exposed to bromine water I have a nausea, skin irritation or burns. " She replied, " Ok. That will be all for today.  I need a copy of your passport, your business information, your client list and I am sorry... But your divorce papers. Please email me all that as soon as possible. And yes, where are you staying?  I can send some security there. " " Minoxe, suit number 204" the lady replied.  "One second auntie, have you done any blood tests recently? ". Her aunt said, "Yes. Why? " "Send me the laboratory's  name, phone number and address  " she said.  Her aunt texted her the number, name and address.  She dialed the number. The person on the other side said, " Welcome to Rutherford Pathological lab. How can I help you? " Vennela said, " I want to talk to your manager. I am a detective. " " OK mam ".After a minute's pause a second voice came on the phone, " I am Finnula Grey the manager.  Tell me how can I help you." Vennela said, " Has some blood been stolen from the lab recently ?". Finnula replied, " I cannot disclose any details about any patient this way. I need you to have a permission letter from the police ." Vennela replied , " Ok. I'll get back to you." She thought about a friend in a lab.....Yes... Minnie Hazelwood .... She checked for her in her networking site ...yes there she was ... Minnie Hazelwood , director of Rutherford Pathological lab. She contacted her . Minnie picked up the call. She said, " Minnie Hazelwood speaking .Who is this?" Vennela replied, " Minnie, I'm Vennela ... remember me from the Grey High School ?" Minnie said , " Vennela Bennett?? The beau of that Joshua Cryant ? ....sorry . Aren't you a detective now?" Vennela replied," Yes. I am a detective now and I need your help. Aren't you a director of Rutherford Pathological lab ? I need your permission letter to know about the theft of blood from your lab . It's needed for my case." Minnie said , " Fine . But tell me about that case and give me a written request ." So , Vennela narrated all the events and then sent an e mail of the request . She then got the permission letter. She called the lab and after verification of the letter the manager said ,"Yes, some 10 days ago belonging to a certain Vennela Bennet aged 42." "Thank you . I want the details of that theft.  Send it to my number -----2285685346 now. "

She checked her email.  One email was from Frank. It said, " The ship carrying Bromine water and gas was Starship 1000 from Russia."

She got the details of the theft . It was done on 1st of February exactly 20 days earlier from the day on which she had received the package. It was done by a certain John Hay. She checked the name on the net and she found that he was the member of the Periculum and was last seen on the Starship 1000 on the way to Russia.
