Chapter 1447: Unknown secret letter

After talking to Delphi last night, Maka, who sent her away, was busy underground in the Central Square for a whole night, and did not return to the ground until the sun fully rose.

At this time, there were actually many people in the square. When he came out, he found that everyone was obviously watching the vertical downward tunnel he opened.

To be honest, the moment he emerged from the tunnel and saw so many people staring at him with their heads lowered, he suddenly seemed to feel the mood of those marmots in the Muggle zoo.

"Oh, good morning, everyone!"

After saying hello with a subtle smile on her face, Maka quickly repaired the hole in the ground and left the square, returning to the lobby on the first floor of the new Ministry of Magic.

And when he walked in the door, the first thing he saw was not the expected Lupin or a member of the Ministry of Magic, but the trio of Hermione, Harry and Ron.

Oh no, to be precise, it should be a group of four, because Maka subconsciously looked around and soon saw Neville again in front of the book and newspaper display rack on the side of the hall.

"Why are you here? And it's so early?"

It can be seen that except for Neville, who is reading an old newspaper, the other three people are gathered around the Spiral Town sand table in the middle of the hall.

Especially Hermione, she seemed to be very interested in this small town architectural model that was scaled down by magic. She looked at it carefully without raising her head until Maka spoke.

"Maka?"

Hearing a familiar voice suddenly come from the door, several friends, including Neville, turned their heads almost at the same time.

"Oh," Hermione paused for a moment before hurriedly saying, "Didn't you let us make a magic shield at Hogwarts before? After I saw the protective spell in this town last night, I was wondering if it would be better.

I can make some more defensive measures for this place. So, I came over to take a look at this sandbox..."

"Well," Maka nodded and said as he walked forward, "It's good. Didn't we test the curved slate last time? There are a lot of slates in the unfinished construction area to the east. You can use those as you like... Of course

, just try not to waste it!”

"Oh! Those stones... can we really use them?"

Looking at the gleaming expression in Hermione's eyes, Maka knew that she must have seen those slates before... and maybe even had the idea of ​​​​those slates in mind.

"By the way, you are all here, what about Luna and the others?" Maka asked curiously, "Well, there are also Ginny, Hannah...what, Harry, Neville, you two are so big

It's early, don't you need to take a walk with your girlfriends or something?"

"Oh, let's not talk about Harry for now, Neville will definitely not need it," Ron shrugged beside him, "I heard Ginny say before I came out that Luna stumbled into her and Hannah's room in the middle of the night.

Then we just squeezed into Hannah’s bed and slept until dawn. When we came out at dawn, they both hadn’t gotten up yet!”

"Well?"

When Maka heard this, she couldn't help but shook her head, and then said,

"What about Ginny?"

"She said she wanted to stay there to practice spells, so she didn't come with us." Harry said, "I think she also wanted more self-protection capabilities... After all, you also know Maka.

, she has always been a somewhat strong girl."

And when Maka slowly walked up to a few friends and took advantage of the time before breakfast to chat with them casually, hoping to eliminate some of the slight uneasiness in their hearts, the person deep in the hall

The door was suddenly pushed open gently from inside.

"Lupin, where have you been? I thought you would be here when I came here!"

"Oh! Although I do spend most of my time here, you can't let me do all the 'certain' things that should be done in other places, right?"

"Okay, okay, you win." When Maka heard this, she immediately reacted and saw him waving his hands and saying, "Just treat what I just said as if I didn't say it."

Before he finished speaking, before Harry, who was obviously confused, could ask about this topic, he immediately turned and said: "Lupin, the matter about the statue was clarified last night, but there is a lot to say.

, I will compile a written information for you later and you can understand it more intuitively! And now..."

As he was talking, suddenly another wizard ran in from the front door, and in his hand was a small crumpled note that he could tell was taken from the owl mailbox.

Maka watched the other party run all the way to Lupine, handed the note over, and then said "I'll wait at the door" and hurriedly left the hall.

After Lupine unfolded the note and read the cipher text on it, his brows immediately twitched slightly.

"...Maka, there is the latest news from the patrol team," he quickly handed over the coded note calmly, "I haven't seen any enemies all night."

Harry and Neville were obviously not aware of the subtle changes in Lupine's expression. Although Ron had made some progress in observing words and expressions over the years, he still looked like a child under Lupine's sophistication.

Only Hermione, although she didn't notice anything on the surface, felt that something was not quite right for some reason.

"Oh," Maka looked at the note, couldn't help but support her chin and think for a moment, and then said, "There were quite a few before, but now there are none. I said last night, there is obviously something wrong with this... now

Since it hasn’t happened all night, it’s naturally even more suspicious.”

Having said this, he shook the note in his hand again, and then continued:

"However, to say that this judgment is actually correct, hasn't it been proven before? When the actions of the dead are out of control, unless they find a creature that can be attacked, they are basically moving aimlessly.

Wander.”

"That's why they come out of the fog one after another like that."

"Correspondingly, once they no longer appear at the edge, it means... Haierbo should be summoning them."

After such analysis, Maka returned to the previous topic and said:

"So, it is indeed very likely that the outer part of the fog has been emptied of those living corpses, and it is more likely that they will be concentrated somewhere deep in the city instead of still wandering around looking for attack targets."

"Um……"

After Lupine heard what Maka said, he couldn't help but nodded, his expression becoming slightly more relaxed.

But just when he was about to say something more, Hermione, who was watching silently, finally couldn't help but said:

"Maka, Lupin, what happened...did something happen?"
