harry potter book of crimes

Someone connected themselves to the curse in the necklace through spiritual power, but the curse was not activated, and instead the source of the connection was plainly exposed.

If Maka had to find a metaphor to describe it, it might be "the enemy sent an invitation letter eagerly but politely".

As for whether this "invitation letter" contains hostility or something else... there is no way to judge based on mere conjecture.

"Still in London... Do I have to make another trip?"

If he just went for a walk alone, it didn't seem to be a big deal to Maka. He just felt a little regretful that it looked like he might not be able to sleep again tonight.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shook his head with regret, and then put the cursed necklace floating in front of him back into the box. After putting the wooden box away, he casually lifted up the robe hanging on the back of the chair.

, while putting it on, he walked quickly towards the tent door.

"...M...Maka?"

"Oh, Harry, did I wake you?"

As he passed the bed where Harry and Ron slept, he suddenly heard Harry calling him in a daze, causing him to pause slightly and turn around to take a look.

"No, I think I just woke up." While answering, Harry looked around subconsciously, "Oh! Did I accidentally fall asleep just now... What time is it? Maka, you...

Are you going out?"

"There are still several hours until dawn! It's enough for you to get some more sleep," Maka waved her hand and said, "Have a good rest. There may be tasks that need to be assigned to you tomorrow!"

After giving Harry a gentle warning, Maka walked out of the tent without looking back. To be honest, his last words were actually more of a comfort to ask if there was really a mission tomorrow.

, then it’s really not necessarily true.

Not long after, he left St. Mungo's camp with his staff and headed straight for London.

…

It was about ten minutes before Maka noticed something abnormal about the cursed necklace, in a Muggle house in downtown London.

"He's coming towards us...with the big black guy!"

The girl stared at the constantly moving star ornament on the map and the faint red light on the surface of the ornament. Her usually expressionless face finally showed a worried look.

"Come here?" Upon hearing this, the rock youth frowned and said, "Are you going to run away?"

But on the other side, the middle-aged gentleman still shook his head.

"Run away?" He sneered somewhat helplessly, "Don't come up with such a bad idea. Think about what that guy planted in our souls. Where do you think we can run away?"

"I just said it casually and complained!" The rock youth said helplessly, "Anyway, if Haierbo comes later, the communication work will be handed over to you... He who can do it has more work, you are good at this."

"Okay, I'll go talk to him..." The middle-aged gentleman curled his lips and seemed to be very reluctant, "But don't forget, even if there is an accident and I die first, you will probably be together.

'Follow' me!"

But at this moment, the girl in front of the dining table suddenly said:

"No, at least I won't."

"Huh?" The middle-aged gentleman glanced at her and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why 'you can't'?"

"Because the 'seed' planted by Haierbo in my soul has been removed by me."

"What?"

This time, the rock young man and the gentleman were both surprised, and they said hurriedly: "What do you mean? You pulled out the 'seed' from your soul? How did you do it?"

"As long as you can control your own soul, you can do it," the girl said quietly, "but I can only do it to myself at the moment, and I can't help you yet."

"Oh! Doesn't this mean that you can leave at any time?" The middle-aged gentleman asked immediately, "Then why don't you leave? What are you doing staying in this damn place?"

But this time, the girl did not give her answer.

Seeing the girl lowering her head to look at the situation on the map again, the middle-aged gentleman and the young rocker looked at each other in surprise.

"How long until that guy arrives?"

"Not necessarily. The opponent's movement speed is sometimes fast and slow, and occasionally there are deviations... Haierbo is just generally coming in our direction. As for whether his destination is us, we don't know yet."

"Oh!" The middle-aged gentleman spread his hands and said helplessly, "It's such a bad day. I hope we can all see the sun tomorrow morning!"

Before he finished speaking, the rock youth couldn't help but point out "kindly":

"Even if we can survive until tomorrow, we may not be able to see the sun... You know, there is thick fog everywhere outside. For us who can't go out of the city at all, sunshine is already a luxury!

"

"snort."

The gentleman chuckled lightly and said no more.

As a result, the three people in the living room fell into silence, like three lambs waiting for the butcher... Although they certainly didn't want to admit that this metaphor was happening to them, the fact was after all, right in front of them.

There is no room for denial.

After about ten minutes of this, they suddenly felt that the air around them suddenly tightened, as if it had solidified.

Of course, the air was definitely not solidified, but that feeling had truly affected their hearts.

coming!

As the year flashed through the minds of the three of them, they suddenly heard a creaking sound at the door. Then, they saw that the relatively heavy wooden door was completely pulled out of the door frame, "clang"

Thrown aside with a sound.

The next moment, the tall black figure lowered his head slightly and walked in from outside.

The demon's body is indeed tall and strong enough, but it is still within the normal range, so in terms of size alone, it actually does not look that exaggerated.

However, its power was so powerful that it only rubbed against the door frame for a moment, causing cracks in the wall.

When the three of them were staring at the door silently without saying a word, the "big black man" spoke first.

"Why, can't you recognize me?" Haierbo said calmly, "Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't recognize me, because that's not the point. The point is, Fei, have you arranged all your curses?"

"Yes," the girl nodded, "except for one of them that was accidentally triggered by someone, the others are already in place and can be activated at any time."

"Well," Haierbo said suddenly, "very good... prepare yourself, maybe you will need it next."
