Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 985 The Death Behind The Missing
Recently, Muggle disappearance cases have been increasing.
Due to the previous disaster, Mondungus realized that future intelligence gathering might need to include the Muggle world.
However, compared to the population of the magical world, the social makeup of Muggles is much more complicated.
"To be honest, the information on the Muggle side is very laborious to find out-although it is a special period, the international secrecy law is still there after all, and we dare not make it too conspicuous..."
Listening to Mondungus vomiting bitterly there, Maca was actually not saying much.
In fact, the International Secrecy Law was born to provide two-way protection for wizards and Muggles.As long as the two parties are separated from each other as much as possible, a lot of trouble can be avoided.
If you have to give an example... then, for example, war.
It's just that in terms of the situation during this period of time, Helbo's constant tossing has also made Muggles and wizards have many inevitable contacts, so that the international secrecy law has almost become a decoration.
However, his ability to ignore the plain text of the modern magic world does not mean that Mondungus and other wizards who can only walk on the edge dare to cross that line.
"Mr. McLean, you said... If we want to develop some'manpower' in the Muggle world, will this work?"
Seeing the look of Mondungus's brows and rat eyes, Maca suddenly said in an angry manner:
"It won't work!"
He naturally knows what this guy is thinking-as long as he gets approval or advice from him, then this guy can do these extraordinary things in his name.If the Confederation asked about sin, he Maca McLean would be the strongest shield.
In fact, Mondungus's idea was mainly for the growth of intelligence channels. Of course there was selfishness, but the benefits to the Order of the Phoenix and Maca were indeed obvious.
And to be honest, if Mackaken nodded his head, it would really be possible to do it with his current network.
but……
"The temporary investigation is okay. If there are any valuable clues, you can use Veritaserum or even the Imperius Curse. I can help you carry it. But you must remember the word'temporary'," he said solemnly "It’s not the time to break the barrier. Don’t stretch your hand too far."
To put it bluntly, if Maca was willing, he had already agreed to the invitation of the Queen of England and the old bishop last time.But he knew very well in his heart that it was too early to talk about these things, and if he really did, he would only get a burning ending.
After that, he returned to the original topic:
"So, what's the'Muggle Missing Case' you just mentioned? Was it done by a wizard?"
Seeing that Maca completely disagrees with his own thoughts, Mondungus can only put the thought that made him a little bit irritating and put it back in his heart.
Because he understands that, like the kind of extraordinary act of developing power in the Muggle world, there are only a few people in the world that can be done-at least he himself is definitely not qualified.
After finishing his mind a little, Mondungus explained it quietly.
"It's not like a wizard made it, so I can't make up my mind!" He said a little depressed, "Actually! Those missing cases are not difficult to find out, even if they are Muggles who do it by themselves, they can only do more. It takes some time."
"The strange thing is that the disappearances actually involve human lives, and... the process of the death of those deceased is also very bizarre, it is the kind of'bizarre that can be followed.'"
When Maca heard the words, he raised his eyebrows and said:
"'There is a trace of bizarre'? How to say?"
Immediately, Mondungus picked a case he had investigated at random, and told it to Maca as an example.
According to him, an accident happened to such a seemingly ordinary Muggle family a few days ago:
It was a home made up of a couple and two young children.The husband is a car salesman, and the wife, who has just given birth to her second child, quit her job to bring the children at home.
Obviously, this is actually a common family in London.
But just a few days ago, the wife found out that her husband had an affair very accidentally.This is undoubtedly a very heavy blow to a woman who has only been married for a few years.
Therefore, the wife, who has always been gentle and clear, questioned her husband that night, trying to get him to confess everything.
She originally thought that her husband would covertly refuse to admit it no matter what. Although it would also irritate her, it also proved that the husband still had her as a wife in his heart.
Marriage is not a matter of one person, let alone two children now.Even if it is for the sake of the child, she wants to see if it can be restored.
But what she didn't expect was that her husband admitted it nonchalantly!
Needless to say, this quarrel between husband and wife escalated further with the attitude of the husband, and a cold war began between the two.
"It can be said to be normal up to this point," Montongues said. "Things like this happen frequently, whether it's Muggles or in the magical world. But then..."
A pair of scissors, a life; the deceased is the husband, but the wife is not the killer
"...It was the eldest son of the two who made the hand," he frowned, stretched out his hand and gestured. "It's only five years old, and that's so tall-the child kept aiming at his throat while his father was drunk. Stuck it three or four times!"
"Five years old?" Maca couldn't help but frowned. "Is it his own will?"
"Yes," Montongues nodded, "I personally asked... But there is one more problem, which is that this case was originally caused by a disappearance. The wife did not know that her husband had died at the time. In the bathroom, she only found that her little son was missing... In panic, she called the police."
"Is there any problem?" Maca asked suspiciously.
However, Mondungus spread his hands.
"No problem," he said, "just because it's okay, this is the biggest problem-I said from the beginning, the number of'missing cases' has been increasing recently."
Hearing this, Maca suddenly said:
"So you just said that the disappearances involved human lives... No, it should be said the other way around-all these deaths cases were initially involved in the disappearance?"
"Yes, that's it." Montongues nodded. "We probably counted it. There are no rules for the dead and the murderers. The distribution of cases can only be said to be near London-both inside and outside the city. Yes. Everyone is the same except for the "missing"... Although the missing is nothing strange, and most of them are easily recovered afterwards."
Judging from the circumstances that he said, whether this matter is related to wizards... or to put it more bluntly, whether it is related to Helbo, it is really not a rash conclusion.
Of course, Helbo must be a big deal when it comes to suspicion.
"Hmm..." Maca pondered, and said after a while, "Just because your current number of people is not enough to find out the situation in time, so you will mention me to the Muggle world to develop manpower?"
"Yes!" Montongues said with a bitter face, "The Muggles are too messy, there are so many people, and there are many wizards on our side who are not familiar with Muggles."
"Don't tell me now," Maca waved his hand. "Anyway, you should continue to stare at it in your current state, and I will figure out the rest."
After speaking, he picked up the remaining half a cup of Butterbeer, drank it and fell into contemplation.
Mondungus saw that Maca was not speaking, so he turned his head and looked at Aberforth, who immediately looked away impatiently.
"Uh... we will continue to stare, then I won't bother you-please feel free to call me if you have anything, I'll be right by!
After saying a word to Maca, Montonguez, who felt a little bored while sitting, stood up and walked to the other round table with his Fire Whiskey.
Maca responded casually, not paying attention to his departure.
He is now thinking about "missing", especially "most of those missing are easily retrieved afterwards."
Obviously, there must be a reason here.If these disappearances were all "man-made", the reason here would be more intriguing.
As for those seemingly "bizarre" deaths, Maca has already developed some personal thoughts.
"Anyway, you have to check it yourself first."
Putting down the empty wine glass gently, Maca mumbled.
...
The next day, Maca received a summary of the case compiled by Mondungus.He asked the other party to keep a record of all the cases that he had followed so that he could select and check.
As Mondungus said, these disappearances are really many.
Although compared with the population near London, this list is nothing at all.But if he is asked to check it out one by one, to be honest, he really doesn't have so much time.
Right now, Maca was sitting in his potion preparation room, looking at these case records with different handwriting at will.After a while, he shook his head silently:
"There is really no pattern at all."
But after roughly scanning it first, and discovering that there were no clues, Maca settled down and looked carefully one by one.
Since he is used to reading all kinds of messy materials, his reading speed is much faster than ordinary people.I saw the stack of reports quickly alternated in his hand, turning over half of them in a blink of an eye.
But suddenly, his hand flicking the report stopped.
"this is--"
Maca stared at the piece of paper in her hand and looked at it again and again, but her brows wrinkled tighter and tighter.
After a while, he put all the other reports on the table, walked out quickly with only that one, and left the room in a hurry.
