Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 1108: Lies intertwined vertically and horizontally
? 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, it may also be 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 that he has suffered something. what.
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 wants is two results-the first is to force Martin to take the initiative to seek help from Helbo, and the second is 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 the opponent. After all, the friendship in times of adversity not only tends to develop extremely fast, but also quite strong.
For Pansy, this is undoubtedly a good opportunity to lay a solid foundation for the task.
Unfortunately, Pansy, one of the insiders, didn't have time to think so much, that she didn't even expect the Ministry of Magic search operation that would inevitably occur afterwards.
Not to mention, she doesn't even know where Martin has gone now.
"...Ministry of Magic Auror is working, please cooperate with us and 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 raising his eyebrows a little when he saw Eluli, but he didn't say anything.
The other two Aurors beside him, one is holding a thick booklet, and the other is responsible for showing his Ministry of Magic credentials.
For the three Aurors who knocked on the door, Pansy was actually a little nervous. 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. You see, I am going to Ollivander early tomorrow morning to buy a new wand!"
As she spoke, she took out the wand that had just been broken by Eluli, and handed it directly in front of the opponent pretending to be natural.
The headed Auror stretched out his hand and took a few glances.
It can be found that Eluli was indeed quite decisive at the time, but 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. What a pity..." The Auror murmured casually, then looked at Iluli standing next to Pansy, "this lady , Please show me your magic wand too-it's always broken, right?"
"Ah, no, no." Eluli shook her head quickly, and then took off the hood on her head, "Sir, I think you can understand... I'm just a servant, I don't need to wear it. Magic wand."
"Huh?"
The Auror thought Eluli was just a child at first!
"Fairy...No, is it a hybrid of fairies? Okay, okay..."
According to the current law, fairies are not allowed to hold magic wands, but there are no specific regulations for hybrid offspring like Eluli.
So generally speaking, she can either wear a magic wand, or of course she doesn't need to 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 are not as simple as that.
I saw him hand over the wand to the colleague who was holding a booklet next to him, and then he spoke again:
"So, what happened to the two of you still not going to bed so late?"
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 three people coming up to check--" Pansy explained hurriedly, "I ordered a Belgian raspberry beer from Karl. , He must still remember, you will know if you just ask!"
Speaking of which, she thought to herself, then added:
"Yes, please allow me to introduce myself. I’m Pansy Parkinson, and I’m in sixth grade at Hogwarts this year—I rushed to buy a wand today, if necessary, Professor McLean You can testify for me!"
"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 people at the Ministry of Magic.
Compared with this, the name of the Parkinson family was subconsciously ignored by the opponent.
After hearing what Pansy said, the headed Auror immediately glanced around and asked softly:
"How is it?"
After that, he heard the colleague who was holding the manual looking down at the pages of the book and saying:
"Hawthorn, dragon's nerve, twelve and one-quarter inches, the stick is smooth and straight, with a long-handled daffodil at the end of the handle, and the holder is Miss Pansy Parkinson."
"It seems to be right!" The other party turned his head immediately and smiled politely, "Sorry, it's a waste of your time, please rest as soon as possible! Also, remember to close the doors and windows, maybe tonight It’s not very peaceful."
After that, he returned Pansy's wand back, and then 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 were gone, Pansy let out a long sigh.
To tell the truth, 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 the pure-blooded members of 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 terrified?
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.
Yes, Shi Cai did get a lot of convenience when she moved out of Maca's signature. If it weren't for Maca's name to be particularly useful, the three Aurors might not have left so soon.
But since the story has been said, does she really have to wait until tomorrow to buy a magic wand before going back to school?
From a certain perspective, 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.
"Eluli, do you know when Ollivander usually opens for business?"
Faced with Pansy's question, Eluli could only shook her head slightly.
Not only her, but how many people care about the opening hours of a magic wand shop?
According to the use of ordinary wizards, I am afraid that it is too much to change the wand two or three times in a lifetime, and some people will not even need to change the wand in their lifetime.
"Otherwise...I'll go to Diagon Alley and wait when it's dawn! I'll go back immediately after I change it, I hope it's still too late!"
"Good luck, Miss Parkinson."
Illuli pursed her lips, but she was also worried. In terms of the consequences of going back 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 didn't prohibit her from holding a magic wand.
However, having a certain degree of freedom in your personal life on weekdays does not mean that you can still be free when you serve the master.
If the host hasn't finished her work before she gets up, she will be punished.
"Just one night, go back before dawn tomorrow, it should be no problem." Eluli whispered to herself, "It's just that I won't be able to accompany Miss Parkinson to Ollivander at that time..."
Thinking of this, she involuntarily looked at Pansy's side face again, a trace of dismay flashed in her eyes.
Seriously, 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 ~IndoMTL.com~, like Pansy, Eluli, who has embarked on this road of no return, actually hasn't known what to do for a long time.
However, just when she was feeling flustered, the previous raid at the underground church was suddenly staged. If there is no help from Pansy, she might be the only "cultist" 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 you have to say it, she really doesn't want to go back to that owner's house now. Although her master would not abuse her, the limited "freedom" came from complete ignorance.
Rather than going back to the family where there is no warmth at all, she might as well just stay with Pansy this "friend".
"Miss Parkinson..."
In a moment, Eluli suddenly asked softly:
"Tomorrow...can I go to the magic wand shop with you?"
