Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 1108
? Facts have proved that it takes experience to escape, and places with relatively dense flow of people like the Broken Cauldron Bar are obviously not suitable for temporary hiding places.
Of course, perhaps it was also because the raid on the underground church happened so suddenly, and then fell into a melee in a blink of an eye, so that Pansy has not really realized what has happened to him.
And if she could calm down and ponder it carefully, she would find that this plan, which came from the mouth of Maca and was implemented by the Malfoy father and son, was basically a series of pressures against Martin.
What Maca wanted was two results-the first was to force Martin to take the initiative to seek help from Helbo, and the second was to provide Pansy, the "spy" with a convenience to penetrate into the other party's organization.
As long as Martin is forced into desperation, the easier it will be for Pansy to take the opportunity to get closer to each other.After all, the friendship in times of adversity not only often develops extremely fast, but also quite strong.
For Pansy, this is undoubtedly a good opportunity to lay a solid foundation for the task.
It is a pity that Pansy, one of the insiders, did not have time to think so much, that she could not even predict the Ministry of Magic search operation that would inevitably occur afterwards.
Not to mention, she didn't even know where Martin had gone now.
"...The Ministry of Magic Auror is working, please cooperate with us to show the magic wand. We need to conduct a temporary inspection and compare it with the registration file."
The one headed by the three Aurors outside the door couldn't help but raised his eyebrows a little when he saw Iluli, but he didn't say anything.
The other two Aurors beside him, one was holding a thick booklet, and the other was responsible for showing his Ministry of Magic credentials.
Pansy was actually a little nervous about the three Aurors who knocked on the door.But fortunately, she has seen many scenes since she was a child, at least she can maintain her composure on the surface.
"Oh, sorry! Three gentlemen... my wand just broke. Look, I'm going to Ollivander early tomorrow morning to buy a new wand!"
While talking, she took out the magic wand that had just been broken by Eluli, and handed it directly in front of the opponent pretending to be natural.
The headed Auror reached out his hand and took a few glances.
It can be found that Eluli was indeed quite decisive at the time, and the original intact wand now has only a few wood filaments that are barely connected, as if it will be completely broken in two with a little effort.
"Well, it looks like a well-maintained wand, it's a pity..." The Auror muttered casually, then looked at Iluli standing next to Pansy, "Miss, please. Show me the wand too-it never happened to be broken, right?"
"Ah, no, no." Eluli shook her head quickly, and then took off the hood from her head. "Sir, I think you can understand... I'm just a servant and don't need a wand."
"Well?"
At first, the Auror thought Eluli was just a child!
"Fairy...No, is it a hybrid of fairies? Alright, alright..."
According to the current laws, fairies are not allowed to hold magic wands, but there are no specific regulations for hybrid offspring like Eluli.
So in general, she can either wear a magic wand or, of course, not wear it. Everything depends on her actual identity and personal circumstances.
After seeing some of the characteristics of Eluri's goblin, the Auror seemed to understand her subterfuge.Obviously, however, things will not be so simple.
I saw him hand over the wand to the colleague who was holding a booklet beside him, and then he spoke again:
"So, the two of you haven't gone to bed so late, what's the situation?"
Yes, although Pansy and Eluli's rhetoric was fair, it was already late at night.Not only did the two of them not sleep in the room, but their clothes were also neatly dressed, which indeed seemed suspicious.
"We just had a drink downstairs and we are about to go to bed! I heard the sound of three people coming up to check—" Pansy explained hurriedly, "I ordered a Belgian raspberry beer from Karl, he must If you still remember, you can just ask!"
Having said that, she thought to herself, and then added:
"By the way, please allow me to introduce myself. I am Pansy Parkinson and I am in sixth grade at Hogwarts this year-I was in a hurry to buy a wand today. If needed, Professor McLean can help me. testify!"
"Oh, Hogwarts student?"
Nowadays, the name of Maca has indeed become a very useful sign.Even if it is nothing to mention, it will naturally give people a trustworthy feeling at a critical moment, especially when it is mentioned in front of the Ministry of Magic.
In contrast, the name of the Parkinson family was ignored by the opponent subconsciously.
After hearing what Pansy said, the headed Auror immediately glanced around and asked softly:
"How's it going?"
Immediately afterwards, he heard the colleague holding the manual looking down at the pages of the book and saying:
"Hawthorn, dragon's nerve, twelve and one-quarter inches, the stick body is smooth and straight, and there is a long-handled daffodil at the end of the stick handle. The holder is Miss Pansy Parkinson."
"It seems to be right!" The other party turned his head immediately and said with a polite smile, "Sorry, it was a delay of your time. Please rest as soon as possible! Also, remember to close the doors and windows. peaceful."
After that, he returned Pansy's wand back, and then he greeted the other two colleagues to turn around and walk to the next room.Before leaving, he kindly helped Pansy and the others to close the door.
"call--"
As soon as the three Aurors had left, Pansy let out a long sigh.
To be honest, a pure-blooded wizard like her wouldn't have been so nervous when facing Aurors before.It's just that nowadays, the times are obviously different from the past. The more beautiful pure-blood family members in the past, the more they are walking on thin ice now.
Not to mention, she is indeed one of the three Aurors searched tonight. Can you not feel scared?
After a while, Pansy suddenly remembered what she said before. After thinking about it for a while, she couldn't help but start to worry about what to do next.
That's right, when Shi Cai moved out of Maca's signature, she did get a lot of convenience.If it weren't for Maca's name to be particularly useful, the three Aurors might not have left so soon.
But since the words have already been said, does she really have to wait until tomorrow to buy a magic wand before going back to school?
From a certain point of view, a lie may be a temporary convenience, but when a lie needs more lies to remedy, the lie often becomes a major constraint for the liar.
By now, Pansy was immediately caught in a dilemma that it is neither right nor wrong to return.
"Illuli, do you know when Ollivander usually opens for business?"
Facing Pansy's inquiry, Eluli could only shook her head slightly.
Not only her, but how many people would care about the opening hours of a magic wand shop?
According to the usage of ordinary wizards, it would be too much to change wands two or three times in a lifetime. Some people will not even need to change wands in their lifetime.
"Otherwise... I'll go to Diagon Alley and wait when it's almost dawn! I'll go back immediately after I change it, I hope it's still too late!"
"Good luck, Miss Parkinson."
Eluli pursed her lips, but she was also worried.In terms of the consequences of returning late, her trouble would be even greater than Pansy.
In fact, what she said to the Auror before was not entirely false, because she was indeed only a servant, but her master did not prohibit her from holding a magic wand.
However, being able to have a certain degree of freedom in personal life on weekdays does not mean that one can still be free when serving the master.
If the owner hasn't finished her work before getting up, she will be punished.
"Just one night, going back before dawn tomorrow, it should be no problem." Eluli whispered to herself, "It's just that you won't be able to go to Ollivander with Miss Parkinson..."
Thinking of this, she involuntarily looked at Pansy's side face again, and a trace of dismay flashed in her eyes.
To be honest, at the moment before opening the door, the phrase "friend" Pansy said really moved her.Because she grew up, no one has ever said this to her.
And if it weren't for the deep inferiority complex, she wouldn't be tempted to buy the ancient magic rituals that Martin spread out when she was out shopping for daily necessities, and she would even kill someone afterwards to complete the ritual.
In the final analysis, what she wants is not outstanding strength, but a self-esteem that can be equal to others.
Now, Eluli, who has embarked on this road of no return like Pansy, actually doesn't know what to do.
However, just when she was in a panic, the previous raid on the underground church was suddenly staged.If there is no help from Pansy, she might be the only "congregant" caught by Lucius's side in the entire battle.
Therefore, facing this Miss Parkinson who not only helped her desperate, but also gave herself a promise of a "friend", Eluli naturally felt a lot of gratitude in her heart.
If she had to say it, she really didn't want to go back to that master's house now.Although her master would not abuse her, the limited "freedom" came from complete ignorance.
She might as well stay with Pansy's "friend" instead of returning to a family that was not warm at all.
"Miss Parkinson..."
In a moment, Eluli suddenly asked softly:
"Tomorrow... can I go to the wand shop with you?"
