They decline, so she decides to have Layton solve a puzzle for her instead to get information on Beluga out of her. After Layton solves it, she tells him Beluga's searching for something. She assumes the search isn't going well, for Beluga looks disgruntled every time she sees him.

After she drinks it, she tells Layton new people have been showing up in Folsense. One of these people is an older gentleman with "a box all studded with gems" in his possession.
