"Connor, I'd better check your father's health in person!" Varga broke the silence a minute later and emphasized to Connor.
Connor didn't give an immediate answer to Varga's request. He thought for a while, then said to Varga in a low voice, "Give me some time!"
According to the calculations of the auxiliary A.I. Chip, the Milna pill he'd given Old Ferguson could last for three days. After that, Old Ferguson's body would continue to deteriorate.
Therefore, the best case scenario was for him to find the spy that Reyes had planted in the Ferguson Family within three days. If that was the case, he could openly take Varga to treat Old Ferguson's illness. However, if it was more than three days, the longer it dragged on, the less hope there was for Old Ferguson to be cured.
Seeing that Connor had made his decision, Varga also chose to respect Connor's decision. She nodded and didn't say anything else.
… …
… …
The next morning, Connor, who had stayed up all night, went to the restaurant of the Agudelo Hotel early in the morning. He ate bread and grilled fish without tasting anything as he flipped through the documents in his hands. A few days ago, when he was preparing to investigate the Ferguson Family at night, Varga didn't stay idle either. She secretly hired two detectives selected by Connor to investigate the Ferguson Family.
The documents in Connor's hands now were the investigation reports given to him by one of the two detectives, Kurzawa. Kurzawa wasn't well-known in the Flosinone detective industry, and was only a private investigator in name. However, he was actually quite famous in the black market of Flosinone. He was known for the accuracy of the information he gave.
The reason why Kurzawa was able to provide Connor with an investigation report on the Ferguson family, which had over a hundred people and more than twenty properties, was partly due to the allure of Valga's offer of a thousand gold guineas.
On the other hand, this person had a grudge against the Ferguson family. His uncle Felix's family of five had been wiped out by the knights of the Ferguson family due to a conflict of interest, so he harbored hatred and had been consciously collecting all kinds of information about the Ferguson family over the years in an attempt to overthrow them. Therefore, he only needed a few days to sort out all the information he had collected over the years and hand it over to Connor as a detective report.
After Kurzawa provided the detective report to Connor, he was no longer of any value to Connor. He became a hidden danger, and Connor never showed mercy to hidden dangers. Therefore, under Connor's instructions, Varga killed Kurzawa and his bodyguards, a total of three people.
After receiving the detective report from Varga late last night, Connor had been studying it. According to Connor's observation, the detective report provided by Kurzawa mainly mentioned three points.
The first point was what Connor had learned from Jack Ferguson and Eugenia's conversation in the study. The main reason why the Ferguson family's financial situation was deteriorating was because of Jack Ferguson, this big maggot, who embezzled the family's property!
The second point surprised Connor. It was that his second uncle, Warren Ferguson, and his second aunt, Kelly Fabian, who were supposed to be separated due to the transfer of property for their illegitimate son, seemed to have reconciled in recent years. The two of them had been seen by Kurzawa's informants many times and had been in theatres, parks, and other public places together.
The third point, which interested Connor the most, was that although Butler Martinez was a grand knight, due to his old age, his energy was inevitably lacking. Although nominally he was still managing the Ferguson Family on behalf of the seriously ill old Ferguson, in fact, a lot of his power had been delegated to the deputy butler Danilo and the general manager of the Ferguson Ore Distribution Company, which was the most important financial pillar of the Ferguson Family.
Danilo was 33 years old this year and was born in a side branch of the Ferguson Family. When he was 21 years old, he inherited his father's position and managed a dairy farm under the Ferguson Family. Later on, because of his good management of the dairy farm, he was appreciated by Butler Martinez and was taken by Butler Martinez to learn from him. In recent years, he had a good reputation in the Ferguson Family and had a good reputation. There were faint voices in the Ferguson Family that Danilo was the successor of Butler Martinez.
As for Arbeloa, he was 38 years old this year and graduated from the Economics Department of the University of Duhaile in Flosinone. He was originally an outsider, but because he married a woman from the Ferguson Family, he could be considered to have married into the Ferguson Family. Although his ability was average and the Ferguson Ore Distribution Company's performance was not good in recent years, he was good at currying favor and was able to provide enough benefits for the elders of the Ferguson Family. Therefore, his position as the general manager had always been very stable.
Originally, he was just another parasite of the Ferguson Family, but because of an incident in Kurzawa's detective report, Arbeloa became the most suspicious person in Connor's eyes. A few years ago, a group of very famous bandits near Flosinone, the Derong Black Knights, were hired by the Leo Consortium, a competitor of the Ferguson Family's mining business. In order to attack the Ferguson Family's mining business, they attacked the Ferguson Ore Distribution Company's Faros warehouse in the suburbs of Flosinone.
On that day, as the general manager of the company, Arbeloa, happened to be inspecting the Faros warehouse. The final result of this incident was that the Derong Black Knights successfully attacked the Faros warehouse. Except for Arbeloa, all 11 employees of the Ferguson Ore Distribution Company were killed!
As for Aveloya, who ran back, he claimed that when he saw the Derong Black Knights charging over, he saw that the situation was not good and took the initiative to escape. Because he ran away quickly, the Derong Black Knights did not catch up to him, so he was very lucky to run back with only some light injuries.
In the detective report that Kurzawa provided to Conner, it mentioned that someone had seen Aveloya run away as soon as he saw Derong Black Knights. However, Aveloya was different from Derong Black Knights. Aveloya did run away as soon as he saw Derong Black Knights.
