When they were back in the apartment, Connor felt that it wasn't worth it for George to do that, but since George had already given up, there was nothing he could do as an outsider.
Connor did not have much time to think about George. On the second day after his meeting with George, Connor welcomed an unexpected guest at his apartment at 16th Rand Street in the middle of the night.
"Why are you here?" Connor could not help but ask in a low voice when he saw Varga's pale face.
Varga looked at Connor bitterly, but did not answer Connor's question. Instead, he said something that shocked Connor. "Did you already know that the Secret Society was going to make a move on you?"
Although Connor felt as though he had been struck by lightning, he had been through so many things, and his shrewdness had long been honed. "What's the matter?" he asked Valga with an expressionless face.
Hearing Connor's words, Valga took out a green pill from her space ring and pushed it in the air between her and Connor. Seeing this, Connor raised his hand and wanted to grab the poison pill. Valga hurriedly stopped him and said, "This is the Origin Poison Pill! It's extremely poisonous. Remember not to touch it at all! "
After being reminded by Varga, Connor immediately stopped what he was doing and carefully observed it with his mind power. Connor was secretly shocked. Although he was not very proficient in pharmaceutics, he at least had the most basic knowledge. The poison on this thing that Varga called the "Original Poison Pill" was far more potent than any poison that Connor had encountered before.
"The Secret Society asked you to refine this thing to harm me?" Connor raised his eyebrows and asked Varga with a faint smile.
Connor's words immediately made Varga's beautiful eyes turn sorrowful again. She looked at Connor and said softly, "Your mentor knows about our relationship. The medicine that the Secret Society asked me to refine after Gursey's death has nothing to do with you!"
"Oh right! I almost forgot to congratulate you. Congratulations on becoming the vice president of the hospital! "Connor raised his wine glass and congratulated Varga with a smile.
A month after Dr. Goursey's death, Connor observed a very interesting phenomenon. The famous Dr. Goursey's Private Hospital in Loen had changed to Dr. Ivanka's Private Hospital. Dr. Ivanka was the vice president of the hospital when Dr. Goursey was still in charge of the hospital. Furthermore, she and Dr. Goursey's hospital were both members of the empire's registered doctors' association.
The change of the hospital was announced to the public that Gursey had transferred the hospital to Dr. Ivanka because he missed his son who was far away in the imperial capital. He had also moved to the imperial capital to live! To Connor, it didn't matter who took over the hospital. What was important was that Connor noticed a paragraph at the bottom of the announcement. In order to enhance the hospital's treatment ability, Angelina Hospital had specially hired a Doctor Angelina to be the vice president of Dr. Ivanka's Private Hospital. The oil painting that introduced Angelina was of Varga wearing Eusebio's mask.
Obviously, after Varga killed Gursey, she dealt with the aftermath beautifully. Not only did the Secret Society acknowledge Gursey's death, but she also took another step forward and became the vice president of the hospital under the alias of Angelina!
"Connor, I know I've lost your trust because of Gursey's death, but I can't explain it to you now. However, you must think of a way to make Old Victor consume this origin poison pill. The Church of the Storm is keeping a close eye on the Secret Society. The official wizards in the Secret Society are all in hiding, so the one who attacked you is very likely to be Old Victor!" Varga ignored Connor's' congratulations' and pointed to the Primordial Poison Pill as he solemnly said to Connor.
Hearing that Varga wanted him to use the origin poison pill to trick Old Victor, Connor subconsciously wanted to pretend that he didn't know anything in case Varga was testing him on behalf of the Secret Society. However, Connor couldn't say it out loud. After pondering for a while, the smile on his face disappeared. He looked into Varga's eyes and said, "Do you know what you're doing now?"
Facing Connor's gaze, Varga didn't hesitate and nodded affirmatively.
"My mentor is a professor in the Secret Society. He taught me advanced meditation techniques, taught me alchemy, and gave me all kinds of resources to help me become an advanced wizard apprentice step by step. I think I have to admit that if it wasn't for the professor, I wouldn't have been able to reach where I am now."
A strange and sad smile appeared on Connor's face as he spoke. He stared at Varga's delicate and beautiful face and said slowly, "I won't blame you for choosing to leave. With your talent in potion making, as long as you don't make any big mistakes, both the professor and the Secret Society will choose to forgive you. You don't have to be buried with me!"
What surprised Connor was that Varga didn't say anything after hearing what he said. After a while, Varga's eyes turned red and two lines of tears fell from his eyes.
"Connor Ferguson! You bastard! I just didn't explain it to you, so why are you so angry?" Why do you always suspect me and test me? Do you really want me to take out my heart to show you? "
Facing Connor's test again, Varga seemed to have lost control of his emotions. He complained to Connor while crying.
Seeing Keer, who used to be in his arms, like this, even if Connor had a heart of stone, he couldn't bear to see her like this. He silently took out a silk handkerchief from his space ring and handed it over.
Varga glared at Connor and took the handkerchief to wipe the tears on his face. After a while, he calmed down. Varga pointed a finger at Connor and said firmly, "One month! Connor, give me one month. After one month, no matter what you ask me, I'll tell you everything! "
Seeing that Varga took the initiative to make a one-month agreement with him, Connor's expression softened a little. He nodded and said, "Then I'll look forward to it in one month!"
After making the one-month agreement, the issue of "trust" between Connor and Varga came to an end. Varga took out a picture of a woman from his space ring and showed it to Connor. "Connor, have you seen this woman?"
