better if we can rescue him as well.” “Winnie, I must tell you this. It isn’t difficult if you want to save your granny, but if you’re looking for Professor White, that’ll be an arduous task. I can share with you some details related to Professor White because even if I don’t tell you, you’ll be able to sound these things out anyway since all the drug dealers in Lightspring know about this. Harold is one of the three most powerful drug lords in this region, and two major factors contribute to his rapid success. The first reason is his control over vast amounts of firearms, and the other is the drug formulation he possesses. While the other two drug lords were still planting poppy plants to extract the opium, Harold had already built factories to facilitate his manufacturing process. Professor White is the source of Harold’s drug formulation. However, the factory’s location is very secluded and is top secret. When I took over my colleague’s position and showed up in front of Harold, I risked my life for him and shielded him from bullets, all to acquire his trust. Yet, I haven’t found out the location of his factory until now, not even the slightest hint! Besides, the police from Chanaea aren’t the only ones looking for Professor White. The other two drug lords are searching for him too. They want to seize that drug formulation for themselves because it will be their cash cow. In light of such a dire and precarious situation, Harold has to put forth his best effort to conceal Professor White. You’ve only arrived at Lightspring for one or two days. Do you think you have the capability to rescue Professor White?”Winnie had some sense of self-awareness. “I don’t. Unless I’m so lucky as to stumble into the factory’s entrance.”“I’m glad that you understand my point. Therefore, you should hurry up and leave as soon as you rescue your granny. Regarding Xavier’s antidote, you can try to look for the help of other specialists. If doctors do not have a solution, then look for chemists. Since a chemist created this venom, perhaps others among their community can come up with an antidote.”Letting out a long sigh, Winnie answered, “I’m afraid that’s not feasible. I must find Yulissa to get back something that belongs to me.”“What is that thing?” Christopher was genuinely concerned about Winnie’s safety. “Tell me. I’ll help you get it back from her.”She responded solemnly, “Thank you for your kind offer, but I’m afraid that’s not a good idea. Yulissa hates my guts and yearns to see me die. If she knows you’re helping me, you can imagine the consequences. If she’s infuriated and exposes you, you and your plan will be doomed. In that case, I’ll feel guilty about that for the rest of my life. Besides, I’m here because I have another crucial thing that I must accomplish.”He ruffled his hair in frustration. “All the things you want to do are no different from courting death. What other matters do you have that you must accomplish?”“You mentioned Professor White when you talked about the drug formulation earlier, and you also said the two other drug lords are vying for the formulation. Is Professor White the only person who can produce the drugs here?”“He’s certainly not the only person who can do that, but Professor White has the newest formulation. Do you know the significance of this newest formulation? That means these drug lords will be able to produce drugs with the highest purity using the least cost. This is a matter related to maximizing their profit yield.”“Newest formulation…” Winnie nodded. “I got it. What I’m trying to ask is that you’ve been here for a long time, and based on the information and intelligence you have, do you know about someone who had just escaped here from Erihal not long ago and may also possess a kind of new formulation?”“Erihal? Are you saying he has Adrunian facial features? There aren’t many people with Adruniuan facial features here because most of them are from Southeast Aploth.”She shook her head. “I’m not sure. I don’t know what that person looks like, nor do I know that person’s gender. I only know that
