"I hope you're not lying to me. I'll verify what you said through my own channels. How should I contact you then?" After careful consideration, Connor spoke:

"Find Leoni, the store manager, at the Jennifer boutique on the third floor of Imperial Department Store!" Upon hearing that Connor needed a follow-up appointment, Margaret's pretty face immediately showed a hint of anger, but in the end, she did not lash out. Instead, she gave Connor her contact information.

Connor nodded, seemingly ignoring the anger on Margaret's face. "I will give you a definite answer within three days as soon as possible."

This time, Margaret didn't say anything. Instead, she gave Connor a deep look and then silently climbed over the wall of the backyard of the apartment building.

Watching Margaret leave, Connor, sitting alone in the living room, unconsciously pinched his Qingming acupoint.

He gained so much information from Margaret's conversation that he was completely awake and no longer sleepy.

First of all, Connor wasn't surprised at all that Margaret had analyzed so much about herself from advanced meditation and the Mönchengladbach Club. It wasn't difficult to analyze such things if one was willing to do so. What Connor was really interested in was what she said about the Ferguson family.

According to Margaret, the Ferguson family had a lineage of wizards, but one of them was a fire wizard!

Connor was somewhat surprised by this, but upon reflection, it was both unexpected and reasonable.

The wizarding documents in Ferguson's secret library, and the enchanted staff treasured in the family, all corroborate Margaret's claims...

"Looks like I really need to get to know my family better when I get back to Frosinone!" With this thought in mind, Connor nodded and headed to his alchemy lab on the second floor. Since he wasn't sleepy anymore, he might as well finish the mithril decomposition experiment today.

The next morning, after arriving at Green University, Connor found George in the classroom, patted George on the shoulder as he was flirting with several sexy female classmates, and gestured for him to come out with him.

George smiled apologetically at his prey on his bed and followed Connor out of the classroom.

They arrived at a secluded grove of trees. Before Connor could even speak, George excitedly blurted out, "Connor, I absolutely love you! If I were a girl, I'd give myself to you right now!"

Hearing George's words and glancing at George's stubble, Connor felt a cold sweat break out on his back. He asked somewhat awkwardly, "How come you've finished dealing with Olson?"

George nodded heavily: "I listened to you and didn't touch Olson. I just took back the shipment he had prepared to get rid of him. I thought I would just have to swallow my anger, but I didn't expect my old man to find out about it. He not only gave that brat Olson a good beating, but also completely confined him to his quarters. Furthermore, at the family meeting, despite the objections of my uncle Elkann, he overruled everyone and handed Hope Harbor over to me!"

"Connor, you really are my good brother! If it weren't for your warning, I would have messed with Olson, and I'd be the one in trouble now!"

Feeling the admiration in George's eyes, Connor felt a surge of pride. He coughed lightly and slowly said, "Congratulations, George! Hope Harbor is a golden goose. With it, you can truly build your own team and wait for the successor!"

"Haha!" Hearing Connor's congratulations, George didn't hide his joy and laughed heartily. He patted Connor on the shoulder and said sincerely, "Connor, without you, I wouldn't have been able to escape this predicament. We're brothers, so I won't say any words of thanks. If you ever need my help in the future, just let me know!"

Connor nodded and said calmly, "George, if I remember correctly, your father, Mr. Ha, is the third largest shareholder of Sevia Shipping Company, right?"

"That's right! Last time, Sevia Shipping wanted to build a few more giant ships, but they lacked funds. They applied for a loan from our Sanchez Bank, but after the loan was fully repaid, they couldn't repay it due to cash flow problems, so they gave my father seven percent of the shares!" George nodded, then asked again with some doubt, "Connor, why are you asking this? Is there anything Sevia Shipping can help you with?"

"It's nothing, it's just that I recently hooked up with a girl, and she wants to take a ride on the Ivanka cruise ship that comes from the capital. I don't have many connections in Rune, so I thought of you, George!" Connor gave a lecherous smile and told George the excuse he had already prepared.

After Margaret left last night, Connor thought about it all night. He felt that Margaret's place was both a danger and an opportunity. Margaret was right. Her identity was of great help to him, and it was not just limited to getting alchemical materials from the warehouse. Her identity would bring him a lot of information from the Church of Storms.

This was a godsend for Connor, who wanted to break free from his dependence on the secret society's intelligence. So, after much deliberation, Connor decided to make this cooperation happen as much as possible. Margaret thought that Connor would obtain the tickets through the power behind him, but she never expected that Connor and Reyes were now almost completely out of contact except for the communication paper.

However, even if he could contact Reyes, Connor certainly wouldn't use that connection. After much thought, Connor investigated all his connections and finally discovered that Sanchez Bank was actually the third largest shareholder of Seville Shipping, the company that owned the Ivanka cruise ship.

"Haha, a ticket is nothing! I have some connections with Cáceres, the director of the Seville Shipping Company, so getting a first-class ticket is no problem at all!" George gave Connor a knowing look and readily agreed.

"Ideally, it would be an anonymous ticket. I don't want anyone to know that I have a relationship with her!" Connor said, pretending to be a "scumbag." In this world, due to the level of civilization, it is far from being able to implement a population census system.

However, this is a bit tricky because Margaret wanted a first-class ticket on the Ivanka Cruises. The Ivanka is a luxury cruise ship, and second-class or third-class tickets would probably cost a working-class family a month's salary.
