harry potter book of crimes

"Stop! Stop... there is someone there! You wait here, I will go down and take a look."

"We are talking about searching for survivors, but how can anyone come out alive now? Hey, captain, wait a minute..."

It was obviously impossible for ordinary people to stop Sirius, who had made up his mind. He ignored his teammates' words, pressed the broom handle and fell down.

But, of course, he would never forget the minimum precautions. So even if he wanted to take a closer look, he did not get down to the ground, but rode a broom to get closer little by little.

However... since the figure still didn't come out of the mist, it was naturally still hazy when viewed from the outside, making it impossible to see clearly.

"Just looking at the way they walk, it doesn't look like they are the dead who are getting up again?"

Sirius slowly flew to the edge of the foggy area. Instead of rushing in, he stopped outside and looked at it carefully.

To be honest, seeing things in the fog outside the boundary is not even as clear as seeing directly inside, and I don’t know what the reason is.

After observing for a while, he saw that the other party was getting closer and closer to the dividing line, and he immediately controlled the broom and took the initiative to move back a little.

Immediately afterwards, I heard him shout in a medium voice:

"Please note! I am an Auror from the Ministry of Magic. If you are a fleeing survivor, please speed up your pace and respond immediately! If you are injured and need help, please answer! I will go in and help you out as soon as possible.

"

However, even if he shouted this, there was no reaction from the other party.

Although the figure didn't seem to be swaying like other living corpses when walking, it really looked like a normal living person.

"Is it really still the 'dead'?"

Just as Sirius was thinking this, he suddenly heard an inexplicable rustling sound coming from the green belt next to the road, which made him finally retreat again and increase his distance from the ground.

He knew that it should be Maka's spider friends coming over!

"team leader?"

Hearing that his teammates were descending behind him, Sirius hurriedly raised his hand to signal them to stop talking. At this moment, the figure in the mist gradually became clearer and clearer, and he was about to

The border of fog has been crossed.

"Click click click click"

Suddenly, three alienated Acromantulas suddenly swelled up, surpassing the size of an adult in an instant, and the three of them completely blocked the road together.

"Be careful, don't look into the spider's eyes!"

Sirius had to give a reminder to his teammates behind him.

But to be honest, if you want to pay attention to the situation below, it is actually difficult not to see their big eyes. After all, each spider has a full eight eyes. In addition to the front, there are also eyes on the side of the head.

There are two.

Fortunately, Maka's alienated Acromantula is not like a basilisk. Not to mention that it does not inherit the instant death effect, the effect of petrified sight alone is not enough to achieve the effect of no difference and no blind spots.

If they are not their target, the most it will do is make the whole body stiffen when activated. Even someone like Hagrid, who is naturally resistant to magic, will not feel any abnormality.

But Sirius still deliberately avoided the eyes of the spiders, and only focused on the figure that was about to come out of the fog.

"Um?"

Seeing that the other party did not react at all in the presence of the three big spiders, but still walked slowly and slowly from inside to the sight of everyone... and the spiders, Sirius was suddenly stunned for a moment.

Oh, in fact, he was not the only one who was stunned at this moment, including his teammates, their eyes widened at the same time. Because they never expected that the person who emerged from the fog would actually be...

"……blind?"

"No, it's not just the blind man."

Sirius heard his teammates' subconscious doubts muttering to themselves, and immediately shook his head.

"That should... be a 'dead blind man'."

He couldn't see it wrong, because although there were no wounds or blood stains on his body, he was obviously different from other "dead people". He was too clean!

However, the obviously misplaced neck bones and the slightly dented skull indicate that the other party may have suffered injuries no less serious than those of the other "companions".

It's just that "it" doesn't seem to be hurt so obviously!

"Dead...blind man?"

But it seemed that Sirius was more concerned about the deeply sunken eye holes than the inconspicuous injuries on the opponent's body.

It can be seen that those eyes are definitely not blinded recently... Of course, this is not important. What is important is that, like normal people, do living corpses rely on their eyesight to confirm the surrounding situation?

Otherwise, why hasn't it reacted yet when the three big spiders were clearly not far in front of it?

At the same time, on the other side, perhaps the target in front of them has not shown any hostility, so that the three big spiders waiting there seemed a little unsure.

Maka's teachings made them firmly remember that killing requires careful judgment, otherwise, their parents would eat them directly without Maka taking action!

Spider families and societies are much stricter than humans!

And until the blind living corpse slowly and finally stepped within ten feet of the spider, it finally seemed to notice something and stopped suddenly.

But at the next moment, when it took a sharp step forward and rushed towards the spider closest to it...

Sirius and the others only heard a burst of "click" sound, and then the whole body of the living corpse was petrified, turning into a stone statue that was about to run forward, and fell hard on the ground with the inertia.

on the road.

Immediately, like cold killers who had completed their mission, the three spiders suddenly and silently shrank back to their original size, merged into a group of black spots next to them, and disappeared into the green belt.

"Let's see!" Seeing this, Sirius couldn't help but said casually, "With this clean and neat action style, others are much more professional in their work than you!"

…

When Sirius was using the alien Acromantula to remind the teammates he was responsible for, Charlotte's father...that is, Norman Veidt, encountered trouble again.

It has to be said that his escape path was full of dangers and murderous intentions.

"Oops...another one who can cast magic...armor protection, maximize it!"

"Bang!"

Amidst the scattered light particles, he bent down and rushed to the side, trying to use some obstacles on the street to block the continuous attacks coming from behind.

"It's... terrible!"
