Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 1307: Please the wrong person
There are mostly old houses around here. Under the constant rain in London, the mottled walls and the inexhaustible musty smell have become a major feature of these old houses. m.
Maca sits by the window in this living room, sniffing the stale pancakes, and the old man's rumblings are constantly coiling around her ears.
To tell the truth, Maca does not reject the feeling that he has lived enough in the castle, and changing the taste of the old house in the city can make his mood lighter.
He has done everything he should do this time, and for the last remaining step, he has to wait for the time to look back completely before he can continue.
For him, that is also a very important step, which will also determine the life, death and destiny of a certain person.
However, even this simple rest and relaxation seems to hide some unknown secrets.
"Young man, haven't you met those "weirds" on the road? It's the kind I just mentioned"
"Huh? Oh, I have encountered..." Maca drank, and then casually said, "Those guys are really weird and dangerous, so I secretly avoided."
As he spoke casually, he glanced at the closed door in the living room again, seemingly inadvertently. This movement was small, but under his slightly deliberate guidance, the old man on the opposite side was still able to see it.
Suddenly, Maca noticed that the old man seemed to be slightly nervous.
Obviously, there must be something hidden there that he can't let him see... Well, maybe it's just one or several people.
He didn't specifically perceive what was in the room.
"Sir, thank you for your water and food," Maca suddenly put down the water glass in his hand and asked quite straightforwardly, "but I'm very curious, why did you invite me such a stranger to your house... What should you do if I am not a good person?"
The old man probably didn't expect that Maca would ask so straightforwardly that he was stunned for a moment. And then, he pondered and said:
"Even if you are not a good person, it doesn't matter...At this time, people often want something that fills their stomachs. But unfortunately, I don't have that much food to eat anymore."
This reason is quite far-fetched no matter how you hear it, and Maca will naturally not believe it. However, he did not immediately express his doubts, but then nodded.
He has just sat down shortly now, and there are still several hours before dawn, so there is no need to rush to expose anything.
Although Maca didn't expose it, the old man on the opposite side felt a little annoyed that he had made up such a very crude excuse temporarily, and even talked less for a while.
"Huh?"
After observing the old man's slightly awkward cover-up, Maca, who was still indifferent to some doubts just now, has a little curiosity.
If it's just a trap, he won't care at all. At most, he only needs to open the door of the room and take a look before leaving.
However, now, he looked up and down the opposite old man with some doubts.
"Sir, if you have something to say, just say it!"
For Maca, who once wandered alone in the chaotic dock town, the inexplicable state of the old man was enough to make him a lot of associations and guesses.
He has seen villains who kidnapped the elderly or women, intimidating the latter to trap passengers or merchants who came on the pier, cheating or robbing them. This kind of incident is not It's rare.
Now, the behavior of the old man sitting in front of him seems to be very similar to some scenes in his memory.
London has fallen into chaos in recent days. While most city dwellers are hiding in the center of their homes, the food stored at home is also being used up little by little.
In this case, people who are hungry can do everything, not to mention that there are always some cruel guys.
This is not Maca's random speculation, because Lupin has already noticed such signs there.
Actually, if the chaos in the city is not continuing, and the streets and lanes outside are still very dangerous, the whole city might become more chaotic.
Of course, the only suspicious point before Maca's eyes now is why this old man would find him such a "shopping" with his hands empty.
What does the other party want from him?
"Old gentleman?"
Seeing that the old man stopped talking, Maca couldn't help calling him, and then he shook his head as if he had just recovered.
"No, I...nothing else to say."
"Okay!"
Maca shrugged, and then leaned on the back of the old sofa, obviously not in a hurry.
"Then, sir...you just said that you have seen a lot of "weirds". What exactly are they like? What did they do?" He asked as if chattering again, "What I have seen is A few black-eyed guys, because they were so scared at the time, I didn’t dare to look carefully."
He said that he was scared, but he showed a face of indifference. It was obvious that there was not much interest in pretending to be an ordinary Muggle.
After all, since the old man didn't tell the truth, it doesn't make much sense for him to pretend to be like him.
Faced with Macana's perfunctory appearance, the old man seemed a little embarrassed. I saw him open his mouth several times, but I don’t know if he should answer Maca’s words or say something else...
For example, tell some truths hidden in your heart?
But when the old man hesitated for a long time and didn't really say anything, Maca smiled calmly and said:
"Sir, don't be nervous...just what you should say. Otherwise, you can just let the people inside come out, don't be too embarrassed."
"You"
As soon as the old man heard his words~IndoMTL.com~ finally couldn't help saying:
"How do you know someone is in the room?"
"Oh, I don't know," Maca spread out, "but I know now."
He didn't tell lies, because he did not deliberately perceive what was in the room, just a pure guess.
But soon, he saw the old man immediately speak:
"Young man...oh no, I mean, sir. You...whatever you are, please leave now! I asked the wrong person"
"What?"
When the old man suddenly came up with this sentence, Maca couldn't understand what "please the wrong person"?
"Sir, what do you mean by this...?"
"Huh? No, it doesn't mean...you should be a ‘witch’, right? Sir, I’m sorry, if you want to kill you will only kill me, please."
