? "Tick...Tick..."

In a dark and deep place, the hollow dripping sound echoed day after day.The dull and humid air flows slowly here, mixed with indescribable foul smell.

Occasionally, there will be a string of curious voices that sounded in the darkness of invisible.They approached from a distance, and then hurried away on the stagnant water.

Those little passersby are probably just rats.

Basically no people will come here, only snakes, insects, rats and ants living with humans in the city, adding a bit of unknown vitality to this deep and empty underground world.

Yes, logically speaking, this place should be like this-it is dirty but calm, gloomy but not dangerous, it is a "pure land" artificially built under the bustling city.

But recently...

"hiss--"

Accompanied by a chilling low hiss, a small rubbing sound came from a distance, and there was a tendency to get louder and louder.

And as the friction sound approached, even the ground began to vibrate slightly, as if something huge was approaching quickly in this endless darkness.

Before long, the movement slowly turned into a rumbling shock, and the neighing sound became more and more permeating.

Finally, when a group of mice squeaked and screamed and rushed to flee the room, the sound that had come to the front suddenly stopped abruptly.Afterwards, a pair of huge eyes gleaming with terrible green light suddenly appeared in the darkness.

"Don't stop, it's not there yet."

Suddenly, a voice rang near those eyes. It was the voice of a person.The voice sounded a little old, but it was extraordinarily calm.

As soon as the voice settled, those eyes disappeared again.Immediately afterwards, the rumbling sound reverberated, swept across with a gust of fishy wind, and only after a while did I hear it swaying away.

After a long time, the initial sound of dripping water reappeared—it was still in the original rhythm, unchanging and reverberating in this wide passage.

...

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Mrs. Pattef’s teahouse.

Here, while drinking black tea and tasting dessert, Maca and Hermione, who were talking about each other, finally did not pick up the teapot that had been renewed a long time ago and dump them into the empty teacup.

Although the two chatted happily after that, there seemed to be countless things to talk about.

From the men and women in the teahouse to the classmates and professors of Hogwarts, to the strange and strange things of the entire magical world, the well-known Maca and Hermione will never lack topics.

But no matter how happy we talk, we won't spend an entire afternoon here.

"What time is this? After drinking some tea, they should be about to'do business', right?"

Outside a certain window of the tea house, a sneaky voice rang from under the window sill, and people familiar with it must be able to hear it all at once-it was Ron's voice.

And right after that, another voice came out, seemingly weak:

"Ron, let's forget it! Maca and Hermione are dating. It's not good for us to peek like this... And, my legs are numb."

"Navi, can't you hold on for a while!" Ron said helplessly, "Your legs are numb...Do you think I am not? Look at your girlfriend Hannah, the girl has never called out a word of tiredness until now! "

"Because she's already sitting on the ground!" Neville said with a bitter face, "I had to sit too, but seeing you squatting like this, I have to hold on with you..."

"Oh!" Ron couldn't help but patted Neville's shoulder when he heard the words, "Hey, OK! As expected of my good buddy!"

But who knows that this shot made Neville no longer able to squat. As soon as he tilted his body, he fell to the root of the wall with a sound of "Ouch".

The pedestrians passing by watched the three of them squatted one by one, one on their back, and they all looked at them with subtle eyes, so that Hannah who was sitting next to Neville couldn't help but cover her face.

Although she was satisfied just to be with her boyfriend, she still couldn't stand such a shameful behavior.

"Neville, shall we go?"

"No, wait a while!"

Hearing Neville complaining, but still rejecting Hannah's proposal to leave, Ron couldn't help but happily said:

"I knew that our friendship is the strongest!"

However, Neville, who collapsed on the ground, immediately shook his head decisively.

"What kind of friendship?" I saw him rubbing his legs with pain on his face, and sighed, "I just have a numb leg so I can't feel it.

"Puff--"

A chuckle suddenly sounded from the side of the three of them, causing Neville to look back with difficulty, and Hannah, who was covering her face, quickly moved her fingers and looked over.

"Hermione? Ma...Oh!"

Ron, who was still trying hard to squat under the window sill, turned his head, and his sore legs finally couldn't maintain his balance anymore, causing him to collapse on the ground.

"It’s not too tiring to squat for so long. It’s hard work for you!" Maca, who was standing next to Hermione, smiled. "Hermione and I were just talking about a new library in Diagon Alley. We are going to Go shopping there-how about it, are you interested in going with us?"

"Of course I'm going!" Ron was not too dirty, so he turned over and lay on his back. "But... Maca, is there a potion that can relieve leg numbness?"

The numbness of his and Neville's legs was nothing more than caused by poor blood flow after squatting for a long time. Even if they were left alone, they would recover on their own after a while.Maca just took out a small bottle and gave them a sip, and soon the two of them rushed to their feet.

Immediately, Ron raised his hand and waved:

"Let's go!"

...

A few minutes later, in the backyard of the broken cauldron bar, five figures appeared together in a space distortion.

After Maca knocked on the courtyard wall and entered the diagonal lane where people came and went, Ron suddenly stretched out his hand and stopped both Neville and Hannah behind him.

"What's the matter?" Hermione looked at him suspiciously.

In fact, it was not only Hermione, but even Neville and Hannah looked at him in wonder.

"Huh?" Ron said with a smile, "Let's take a look here and go later... You and Maca will go first! Don't wait for us."

When it comes to this, his meaning is very clear, this is to carry on the "voyeur" to the end!

"You have followed, does this make sense?" Maca waved his hand. "Don't be scheming like a fool behind, let's go shopping together!"

After all, he and Hermione took Neville and Hannah and walked forward together.Ron hesitated behind for a while before he hurried to catch up.

"...This can still be regarded as a'date'!"

Although Ron could be regarded as knowing something about the relationship between Maca, Hermione and Luna, the complicated relationship between the three of them was beyond Ron's comprehension.

In fact, it is difficult for them to say clearly, let alone friends like Ron.

And the significance of this date, in fact, was not at all what was done, mainly because Hermione and Luna expressed each other's attitude.

Since this "seeker duel", the two girls have officially changed from "stalemate" to "competition".Although they are still good friends, they probably no longer compromise with each other as before.

Of course, as far as the current situation is concerned, the real competition may not be fully implemented until the Haierbo incident is completely over.

It was because Maca finally understood the two people's thoughts after Luna uttered the word "dating", that's why he took Hermione out for a stroll today without any hesitation.

"Huh? Is this the library you are talking about? Doesn't it seem very good?"

Not long after, Maca led the four to the door of a store next to Ollivander’s Wand Shop. He first glanced inside the store, then looked up at the sign above the door.

The reason Ron would say "not very good" is because this sign looks so ordinary.

"This is Old Batty," Maca said casually. "After resigning, he considered a lot at home by himself, and finally sorted out the private library at home. Little Batty liked to read when he was alive. It is said that here He has read a lot of books on his head."

It can be seen that there is a big brass key on the sign, which is quite familiar in style, and it is the one that hung on the neck of the little Barty Crouch who died under his hand.

It was because Barty Jr pulled out the key before he died, this made Barty, who was locked up and almost dying of thirst, was almost saved.

After Maca used the penis to show him the last performance of his son, this tough old man for a lifetime still buckled up with his always tall back.

"'Bronze Key Library'...It's really a simple and rude name!" Ron shrugged, but then he was surprised, "Did you just say'Old Barty"? It was the previous International Magic Exchange and Cooperation Department of the Ministry of Magic. Director, Barty Crouch?"

"Yes!"

Maca nodded.

Back then, Barty Sr. was known as the person most promising to become Minister of Magic, and because of his clear attitude against Voldemort, he once won a lot of prestige.

However, in the end he resigned sadly because of his son, and instantly became a civilian from a senior official of the Ministry of Magic.

"Come on! Go in and have a look... I heard that Old Barty also adopted two children, a boy and a girl, and they are ordinary Muggle orphans. It seems that he has completely figured it out..."

Although the name of the shop "Bronze Key", there is no third person in the world who can understand its meaning, but at least Old Batty has taken the first step after his death.

The past is not so important to others.

"Mr. Crouch? I came to see you... Mr. Crouch?"

"Sir, are you an acquaintance of Grandpa?"

A teenage girl stood by the door and asked timidly.
