Walton McNeill is a big man.

As an execution officer of the Dangerous Animal Disposal Committee under the Ministry of Magic's Beast Office, he often needs to carry a long-handled great axe for execution. He does have a strong physique that ordinary wizards do not possess.

Of course, compared with the height of nearly two meters, his figure still seems a little thinner.

But even so, when such a tall man shrinks his shoulders, arches his waist, and nods and smiles at another guy who is inconspicuous among ordinary people, the feeling must be quite weird.

"McNeill, I won’t talk about anything else... Like you and Knott’s previous Death Eater status, and the things you did to me in the past, I don’t want to care at all now. You just need Give me another time converter and nothing will happen."

In the study room upstairs of McNeill's house, Maca stood in front of Walton, spreading the palm of his right hand toward him while talking.

"Hurry up, take it out."

For Maca, Walton nowadays doesn't dare to make any mistakes.

He can also be regarded as an up-and-coming veteran in the Ministry of Magic for ten years. Because of the eagle-headed horse-winged beast Buckbeak, he had known Maca early in the morning.

So it is clear that Walton has a complete eye on how Maca has come to its present point step by step in recent years.

He knew very well that whether this Maca McLean was in terms of strength or power, he was not able to provoke a small character who had been secretly hiding in the Ministry of Magic for more than ten years, but had never accomplished anything.

When he heard Maca asking for another time converter, Walton nodded quickly, for fear that if he promised to slow down, it would cause any harm.

"Okay, Mr. McLean... wait a minute, I'm going to get it! This is going to get it!"

When Nott, who was leading Maca over, saw this, there was a faint tendency to want to attack.In his opinion, as long as Walton said that there is indeed a converter, it means that the other party had previously used a fake to deceive himself.

But Maca naturally noticed Nott's mood, and saw him glance back a little, the warning in his eyes immediately made Nott shut his mouth immediately.

In fact, Maca doesn't care if there is any dispute between Knott and Walton, let alone what kind of past there is between them.All he needs now is the time converter.

What's more, neither of these two people are good people.

Just wait for the real time converter to get there, and then the two of them will quarrel as they like, and there will be no life and death duel on the spot.

But the premise must be after he gets the converter.

Seeing Walton hurriedly left the study, Maca randomly opened a chair next to him and sat down while secretly paying attention to the other person's whereabouts.

Although Nott next to him wanted to chase after Walton's footsteps, the look in Maca's eyes just now made him afraid to move randomly.

"Sit down too!"

After sensing that the source of magic power representing Walton had entered a room, Maca pointed at the sofa not far away, and signaled that Nuo was standing in the middle with that restless look.

To be honest, he was already bored enough in his heart, and he was obviously more impatient when he looked at Nott's appearance.

While Knott was busy and sat aside, Maca thought about it casually, and suddenly remembered the daughter Joey who was raised as a maid in the other party's house.

"By the way, I heard Mrs. Parkinson say that the little girl named Joey is your daughter?"

"Ah!" Knott didn't know why Maca suddenly asked about this, but since Maca asked, he could only nodded with a daze, "Yes, yes, my daughter...Joy. Nott."

"That..." Maca recalled again, and then asked again, "Is her mother's name Amanda?"

"Uh, this... how did you know?"

Knott didn't expect that Maca actually knew about this.

In fact, his son and daughter—Theodore and Joey—are actually half-parents.It was only because the mother of his son Theodore passed away early, and because of his eagerness to create a career and revitalize his family, he did not seek his next marriage.

Therefore, he almost got on well with the maid Amanda at home almost naturally.

However, Amanda is just a dumb gun, and Knott, who is considered to be a descendant of the pure-blood family, would never tell this matter.It is impossible for him to admit the facts of himself and Amanda, let alone marry each other into the house.

The relationship between Knott and Joey's mother has always been kept secret.

But not long after that, he was quickly thrown into Azkaban because he was arrested as a Death Eater.Even before going to jail, he didn't know that Amanda was pregnant with a daughter.

Therefore, it can be said that when this old Knott stepped into the home for the first time after returning, he himself was very surprised-who would have thought that after more than ten years of prison, he was surprised that he had an extra daughter. ?

But the old Knott was very thankful that his maid Amanda seemed to be quite "reasonable".

Before he returned, the other party had learned about Azkaban's major prison escape in the newspaper, and after realizing that Old Nott might go home soon, he took the initiative to leave.

What made Old Knot even more happy was that, according to his son Theodore, Joey did not show any magical talent even after he was twelve years old.There was no unusual performance, no magical runaways, and Amanda had no idea of ​​sending Joey to Hogwarts.

Amanda's sensibility made the old Knott feel a little bit old.So he still recognized Joey's daughter, but, of course, she received it as a "goddaughter".

He knew that this was what Amanda had left Joey with in his Knot family. Even if the Knot family were down, life here would definitely be better than leaving with her orphans and widows.

But Nott didn't expect that Maca's opening would break through what he had always wanted to hide.

Fortunately, Knott soon discovered that Maca’s focus was obviously not on his abnormally chaotic family relationship.

"Don't worry about how I knew it," Maca followed and continued casually, "Anyway, taking advantage of the time when McNeill comes over here, I will remind you by the way-as soon as possible. Send it to Hogwarts!"

"What, what do you mean?" Knott immediately asked in confusion when he heard it, "Joy is just like her mother... is a dumb gun?"

"Ok?"

When Maca heard it, she couldn't help but shook her head.

"I don't know if Amanda is a dumb gun, but your daughter Joey is definitely not—seriously, that child has not become silent after being bored at home for so long. You should feel lucky for your son!"

"The one who silently...?"

Knott certainly does not know what "the silent one" is, but—

"I heard Theodore said that Joey's kid hasn't had a magical runaway? How could this be..."

Seeing that he still had an unbelievable look, Maca was about to say something, but immediately he sensed that Walton was coming to the study.

At the moment, the time converter is the most important thing, so he waved his hand immediately, plainly and simply:

"Anyway, when all these things stop, remember to send Joey to Hogwarts, understand?"

Before the words were over, before Nott could speak, the two saw that the door of the study was finally opened again.

"Mr. McLean, look, time converter!"

I saw that Walton was holding things, hurriedly came to Maca's, and carefully held it to Maca's hand.

Seeing this, Maca stretched out his hand to pinch the chain and brought the converter in his palm to his eyes.

That's right!This time it was finally right-the fluctuations of the time rules peculiar to the sands of time made Maca very familiar.

Only at the same time, the extremely real fluctuations in the rules also inadvertently moved the old wounds in his body.Even if he took potions for a long time to neutralize the injury, it made him cough slightly.

"Okay," Maca took a second look, then put the converter away, "McNeill, I don't care if you deliberately deceived Nott, or you don't know if the first converter is fake. Of... Anyway, I have received the thing, so I won’t care about the previous things."

Having said that, he waved his hand and walked straight to the door.

"Nott, you should remember everything I said, then after I leave, you can do whatever you want! But I still have to remind you that during this time, you are not allowed to go out at will."

Looking at the doorway that disappeared soon after speaking, Knott and Walton both took a breath-that really is a wizard who can fight Helbo back and forth with him. , Both of them were almost overwhelmed by the invisible aura.

But this is also natural, because in these two days, Maca was in a bad mood.If it hadn't been for Delphi's incident to loosen his tension, these two guys would definitely suffer a lot of sin.

But after a while, Nott, who was a little slower, seemed to remember something, and suddenly turned his head and stared at McNeill.

"Walton! You actually gave me a fake before—did you know you almost hurt me?"

Nott can even imagine that if Maca were replaced by his last master, Voldemort, he would have bid farewell to this sad life in a green light at that time!

But on the other side, the tall McNeill also glared at Nott, his voice low and authentic:

"Then why don't you figure it out first, who is the real time converter... That's McLean! You brought him to my house!"
