It seemed that Black Light Company was merely a front.
Mycroft and his people were just sacrificial pawns, set up to mask the deeper control of the company.

Next, under Brian's intimidation, the two people in the house honestly answered many questions.
For example, the missing persons case.
The aged sheriff knew something:
"I'm not sure about other places, but in Harvest Town, outsiders often come to post missing persons flyers.
To avoid affecting the town's business and population flow, the residents tear down the flyers after the people leave.
In reality, we don't know what's actually happening.
Residents of the nearby towns haven't gone missing, nor have there been any vicious murder cases.
