"Lupin!"

At the entrance of the new St. Mungo's Building, Lupine, who was walking out with a heavy heart, was suddenly stopped by a voice. When he raised his head slightly, he saw that Maka, whom he had wanted to find, was standing at the bottom of the steps, even taller than

He still wants to come out one step ahead.

"Maka?"

Lu Ping was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously looked back towards the stairs in the hall.

"Don't worry, I didn't alert Harry and the others!" Maka seemed to know what he was thinking and immediately relieved his worries, "Tell me! What's the matter?"

Although Hermione and others had no idea what was going on in the observation room, Maka knew everything about what happened in the corridor.

Not to mention Maka, even Ron, Harry and others immediately realized after Hermione's reminder that what Lupine was hiding must be something big. Even if it was not very convenient at the moment,

Maka left the observation room in time and came out to call the other party.

"Um."

Lupine was already used to Maka's elusive behavior. After a pause, he immediately adjusted his mind, walked to Maka and handed over a piece of paper.

"This is a long-distance letter sent by an owl... Oh, to be precise, a barn owl." Lupine lowered his voice and said, "He is wearing a Hogwarts anklet."

"Change?"

As soon as she heard Lupine's words, Maka immediately frowned, but then shook her head.

"Although there are indeed some owls on the ship,... Professor Sprout and the others are not stupid enough to use owls to send messages here."

"That's it," Lu Ping nodded immediately, "and, didn't we already send a secret message about the prophecy before? How long has it been?"

As Lupine muttered softly, Maka opened the letter and read the contents hastily, then her brows furrowed even more.

"'Professor McGonagall left the study tour alone, possibly returning to Hogwarts'? Professor McGonagall... left the Change and returned to Hogwarts?"

He read this sentence repeatedly, the expression on his face became more solemn, and after a few seconds he slowly shook his head again.

"This... to be honest, this is not an impossible thing," Maca said, "Professor McGonagall deeply loves Hogwarts. After knowing Trelawney's apocalyptic story,

After the prophecy, it is indeed not difficult to imagine her wish to go back and do her best to protect the school."

"Yes!" Lupine rubbed his forehead and said softly, "But the problem is, the way this letter was sent. If Professor McGonagall really sneaks back to Hogwarts, Flitwick, Sprout

Professor and others want us to find her, which is a natural thing. But...how could the Change use an owl to deliver the message?"

In fact, the biggest possibility was on the lips of the two of them, but it was obvious that neither of them wanted to say that answer easily.

After a moment, Maka sighed and said:

"Is it Haierbo? Haierbo should have given this to us on purpose... just to tell us that he knows everything."

Like the previous appearance of living corpses in the southeastern suburbs of London, this was also an act of demonstration. And the most important thing was that even though the method of demonstration was extremely simple and crude, they had to admit that it was extremely effective.

"Maca," Lupine couldn't help but said after thinking for a while, "do you think... has Professor McGonagall returned to Hogwarts?"

But Maka quickly waved her hand and said:

"It doesn't matter whether I go back or not, because the effect of this letter is to force me to leave Spiral Town, whether it is to go to Hogwarts to find Professor McGonagall, or to go to the Change to see if anything happened to the study tour team, and where to go.

It’s all the same. And as soon as I leave Spiral Town, the zombies from London will probably attack here.”

In short, this is a "conspiracy".

Perhaps many people thought that after Haierbo gained absolute power, he would no longer play such fictitious tricks.

But facts have proven that the despicable Haierbo is still the "despicable" Haierbo he once was. Not only did he not immerse himself in his own power and become arrogant and complacent, but he also combined wisdom with strength and intensified his best efforts.

Despicable means.

That guy is far more terrifying than people imagine.

"Maka?"

Lupine looked at Maka, who was holding a letter and frowning in thought, and couldn't help but call out. After Maka pondered for a while, he turned his head and said flatly to Luping:

“Original plan changed!”

…

"...Yes, just because I am one of the beneficiaries of the "Secretary Act", I also understand your feelings. Without the "Secretary Act", there would be no peace over the years... Of course

, at least before Haierbo was born, this was indeed the case!"

Going back in time a little, at the moment when the owl wearing the Hogwarts anklet had just delivered the secret message to Spiral Town, in the old meeting place in France, the patron saint of Maca suddenly appeared and was still continuing the established routine.

speech.

And it must be said that the congressmen in the venue are not all like the Argentinian representatives, who are full of selfish people.

After all, there are still wizards among them who truly hope to maintain peace and prosperity in the magical world around the world.

So far, although Maka's appearance has been very sudden, and it actually has a strong meaning, and because of the magical strength shown by sending the guardian spirit to the place, it also immediately calmed the scene.

But after the initial shock and surprise, the content of the speech prepared by Maka gradually entered the ears of everyone present.

At present, the speeches are basically focused on praising the "Secret Act". It can be said that it has hit the mark of those conservative legislators who work hard.

Since the members of this faction were actually the majority in the federation, coupled with the intimidation at the beginning, Maka's speech went smoothly, and no one dared to interrupt.

In fact, the Patron Saint is not some ancient clone magic after all. Even if it has the new ability to transform through Maka's changes, what it can say is limited to the pre-set content.

However, due to Maka's accurate prediction, the speech went smoothly and no one even dared to interrupt.

"However, the appearance of Haierbo will be a violation of the "Secrecy Act"..."

Just when all the congressmen in the venue were listening to what he said, the representatives saw the silver-white figure suddenly trembled, and then instantly turned into a puff of light and disappeared.

"A most severe... cruel... challenge."
