"Madam Maxime, you are really a rare customer, welcome, welcome, come in!" The carriage just stopped, the bar owner Baltic, a 60-year-old man with wrinkles on his face came out, he said with a smile , "Why are you free to come to Dijon?"
"We are just passing by, leaving tomorrow morning!" Madam Maxime said, and walked off the carriage. "Please prepare dinner for us and open four rooms."
"There are so many rooms, in this situation, not many people dare to come to Dijon." said the old Baltic, sighing.
"What happened?" Madam Maxime asked, stopping at the bar entrance. "Why do you look sad, I remember the business of your bistro was very prosperous when you last came."
"Do n’t mention, the recent situation is terrible. It ’s all because of the terrible Owl-man. People are panicked. Not to mention the foreign tourists, even the local wizard(s), they do n’t go out very much!" Baltic said, waving helplessly Waved.
"Owl-man, what is that ?!" Ivan asked, looking at the barkeeper in surprise.
"To be honest, I do n’t know what kind of monster it is. I have n’t seen it. But according to eyewitnesses, it ’s a humanoid woman with feathers and pointed ears, There are black pliers-like claws on his hands. The feathers are silver-gray in color, and his eyes are covered with bloodshot eyes, and they look like a terrible owl ... "
Listening to the other party's description, a monster appears in Ivan's mind.
"This guy is said to have run out of the owl fortress. The castle is very famous and attracts a lot of wizard(s) to visit Dijon every year. At first, everyone thought it was a joke or a gimmick used for publicity, and I did n’t take it seriously. ”Baltic continued,“ until that incident happened, all the talents discovered how serious this incident was. ”
"There was one witch who died, poor Mary, she is the last member of the oldest pure-blooded wizard(s) family in Dijon. That family is considered to be the only surviving descendant of the Duke of Burgundy, and even the Owl Fortress is the property of their family. She Was found dead in his family ’s mansion, and was not discovered until a few weeks later. "Baltic sighed heavily and continued," The Auror who visited the scene saw a hell-like picture of Mary's skin. The man chopped it down, leaving only the corpse of flesh and blood, as if a pile of rotten meat piled up there. The window of her room was open, and the ground was full of owl feathers, as witnesses swore, Owl-man killed her ... "
After a while of silence, Ivan did not expect to hear such a bizarre and sensational murder just after getting off the carriage.
"To be honest, Old Mary ’s popularity is not very good. If she changes to a normal way of death, this matter may be a good meal after dinner. By the way, let ’s discuss her left behind ’s huge family wealth. How to allocate. "Baltic said," Hey, but now this situation, especially the Owl-man that more and more people see later, Dijon is completely finished, the useless the Ministry of Magic and those waste Auror are basically counting on No, they hide in Paris from afar, regardless of our lives. "
"I will write to the Ministry to respond to this situation!" Madam Maxime said, "I'm sorry, Baltic, can't help you."
"Look at what you said, you and your friends can come, and I'm already very happy!" Baltic bowed and looked up curiously at the Ivan, Sirius, and Hagrid behind Madam Maxime. It takes twenty minutes to get ready. Before that, what do you and your partner want to drink, beer or brandy? "
"Three glasses of brandy, and a glass of juice, that kid can't drink!" Madam Maxime said, paused. "If it's convenient, give me some pure malt whiskey from Malay and put it in their forage OK. "
"Leave it to me, Olympe, I will take care of them." Hagrid said, pulling Abraxen to the backyard of the bar.
Ivan, Sirius, and Madam Maxime followed the boss into this bistro, passing through the narrow and dark passage, and the picture presented in front of them was similar to the broken cauldron bar, and even the decoration style was similar.
The living room is gloomy, the space is very small, and the ground seems to have accumulated dust for centuries.
Ivan do n’t understand why the pubs and inns run by wizard(s) seem to stay in the old medieval style. If they can choose, he would prefer to live in the hotel or guest house opened by muggle(s), but the other three will definitely not .
As the bar owner said, there was no one in them except them.
When you think of the terrible murder, the atmosphere will inevitably be a little dull. Everyone takes the initiative to avoid this.
Under the recommendation of Madam Maxime, the Ivan dinner tried three French specialties of Dijon region, such as boiled eggs with red wine, fish soup and beef stew.
After eating, he left the dining table and returned to the room. Sirius, Hagrid, and Madam Maxime seemed to want to have a few drinks.
Ivan is ready to take the time to take a look at the information about giants that Hermione has collected for him, as well as information about Charybdis Whirlpool.
He didn't know much about this before, so he must grasp the time.
The pub ’s room is on the third floor and is not very large. It has a comfortable bed, a few pieces of bright oak furniture and a small desk. The fire in the fireplace is crackling.
Ivan nodded. Compared with the following, it is obviously carefully packed here and looks much cleaner!
He went to the window and looked at it. Outside was the bar backyard, and their huge carriage was parked in the middle of the yard.
Ivan pulled the curtains up, took out wand(s) and applied a few defensive magic, and then lay down to see what Hermione had collected for himself.
As we all know, giants are a kind of powerful humanoid magical creature(s). They usually have a huge size and unparalleled brute force. Their height can generally reach 30 to 50 feet. They have powerful magic resistance and can use weapons.
Because of this, since ancient times, giants have been considered a horrible war tool.
A giant can fight with more than ten well-trained wizard(s). They are cruel in nature and extremely tired of Demon(s).
In ancient times, they were killing machines on the battlefield, and in modern history, there have been several terrifying giants slaughtering muggle(s).
