Connor's narration immediately made Marguerite fall into deep thought. After a few minutes, she raised her head again and said to Connor, "Connor, there aren't many people who know that you can lock onto mental targets. Therefore, you should have a guess in your heart about who the mastermind is, right?"
Marguerite, who was very familiar with Connor, said what Connor was thinking. A knowing smile appeared on Connor's face as he said in a low voice, "Martina!"
Hearing that Connor suspected that Martina was the mastermind, compared to Varga's incredulous and shocked expression, Marguerite's expression was completely different. She seemed to have expected Connor to say this. Her beautiful face didn't have any change in expression. She took a deep look at Connor, then continued to ask, "Back then at the Zach Textile Factory, Connor, you shouldn't have spared that woman's life. Speak! Connor, what do you want to do? "
Marguerite's words immediately made Connor's eyes reveal a hint of helplessness. The reason why he spared Martina's life in the Zach Textile Factory last time wasn't because he really wanted to. It was completely forced by the situation. If both Emoson and Martina had died in the Zach Textile Factory, the mission to kill Marguerite would have failed, and only Connor Ferguson would have survived.
With Old Victor's temperament, he would definitely suspect Connor. At that time, Connor didn't have the same strength as he did now, and he was confident that he could take on Old Victor head-on! Therefore, in order to smooth over the matter of the Zach Textile Factory and not let Old Victor become suspicious, he needed Martina's help. He wasn't a clairvoyant, and he didn't know that Martina might be the mastermind hiding in the dark.
"Wait a moment, Martina! I have a piece of good news to tell you now! " Without continuing the topic of Martina, Connor smiled meaningfully at Marguerite, then said somewhat mysteriously, "Don't worry.
Hearing Connor's words, Marguerite was stunned at first, then she seemed to realize something. She rolled her eyes at Connor and said snappily, "Is Old Victor hiding in the Oya Flour Factory?"
Seeing that Marguerite actually guessed the surprise he wanted to give her, Connor smiled embarrassedly, then took out a simple map from his space ring and handed it to Marguerite. He then said, "This is the simple plan of the Oya Flour Factory. Old Victor is hiding in the villa that I marked with the asterisk!"
After receiving the floor plan of the Oya 'er Flour Factory from Connor, Margaret carefully examined it for a while before asking Connor with a faint smile, "Did your source of information give you this?"
"Yes!" Under Marguerite's gaze, Connor nodded, then added, "This plan was dictated by her. She verified it when I arranged the drawings, so there shouldn't be any problems with its authenticity. She also told me that during this period of time, the secret society in Loen had successively lost Emosson and Tussam. Old Victor's advanced Sorcerer-Apprentices were also stretched thin. Including Martina, there are only two left, and the other one is not hiding in the Oya Flour Factory. From the current situation, Old Vic is the only one in the factory!" Connor explained the situation of the Oya Flour Factory to Marguerite.
The last time he met with Varga in the safe house, other than confiding in each other, Connor also asked Varga about Marguerite's concerns about the Oya Flour Factory. This was a very coincidental question for Marguerite. If Connor had asked Varga before Tussam's attack, Varga's answer would only be that she didn't know. If she wanted to contact Old Victor, she wouldn't be able to do it directly. She would have to use some other methods to arrange a meeting with Old Victor. Therefore, even if Connor asked Varga, she wouldn't know if Old Victor was hiding in the Oya Flour Factory.
But coincidentally, Varga was seriously injured by Tussam. For the sake of Varga's safety and recovery, Old Victor brought Varga to the Oya Flour Factory to provide him with the best environment and resources for his recovery. Therefore, through this opportunity, Varga clearly understood that the Oya Flour Factory was Old Victor's hiding place in Loen. At first, Varga didn't pay much attention to this, but when Connor asked her, she told him everything she knew without holding back.
After listening to Connor's narration, Marguerite nodded silently without saying anything. She kept the simple floor plan into her space ring.
"I'm still not sure if Martina is the mastermind behind the scenes. After the incident, I wrote her a secret letter to inquire about my source of information, but she hasn't replied to me until now. However, she might have been suspected by Old Victor because of the Selta Sect, so she asked me not to contact her. So I'd like to leave this decision to you, Marguerite! Margaret, if you decide to kill Old Victor now, I only need three days to prepare! " Connor said in a deep voice while looking at Marguerite. Although his tone was calm, his words were filled with determination!
Although Connor's words weren't very emotional, it seemed to have touched the softest part of Marguerite's heart, causing her beautiful eyes to be covered with a layer of mist. Marguerite didn't seem to want Connor to see her tears. She turned her back to Connor and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes.
Just when Connor was hesitating whether he should hug Marguerite to comfort her, Marguerite had already successfully adjusted her emotions. She turned back to Connor and said, "Connor, do you want to hear a story?"
"Of course! I'm willing to be a listener! " Looking at Marguerite's slightly red eyes, Connor nodded with a smile. Based on his intuition and understanding of Marguerite, Connor knew that what Marguerite was going to say next was definitely not ordinary. Perhaps it would reveal something that he had always wanted to know — what did Marguerite experience in the Storm Heart? Or what caused her to hate Old Victor so much? Before going to the Storm Heart, Marguerite didn't pay much attention to Old Victor. What caused such a huge change in Marguerite?
