"Miss Delacour, I need to ask you to borrow some blood...don't worry, it might hurt a little, but just a little will be fine!"

Luna smiled and waved the silver knife in her hand. Her big eyes revealed a purity, but it made people feel a little creepy.

If not for anything else, just because looking at her expression and eyes, it was obvious that she was serious.

"My blood?"

Fleur quickly pinched the sharp silver blade and moved it to the side. Then she quickly took her sister Gabrielle and took a step back together:

"Miss Lovegood, what on earth is going on? You can use my blood to find McClane? What on earth does this mean?"

But when Luna heard this, she shrugged and said:

"Actually, it might be possible, Gabrielle, but your blood seems to be purer. If it still doesn't work, I might ask you to let me meet your mother... Of course, it's best to go directly to your grandma!

"

After a period of fright, Furong finally recovered her normal thinking ability. After listening to Luna's words, she thought about it and finally said hesitantly:

"You mean, you need Veela's blood?"

"Oh! Yes, that's it," Luna nodded. "Delphi told me that the second soul rule rune that Maka was trying to master was derived from the blood extracted from Willie, and Bu

The blood curse of the Lowa family originated from a disaster in ancient times... It is said that the Veela was born after that disaster!"

"Wha...what?"

Furong was confused when she heard this, and said with doubts on her face:

"What's the 'soul rule'? And what's the 'bloodline curse'? And 'the Veela was born from it'... Miss Lovegood, what on earth are you talking about?"

Luna then blinked and said:

"Anyway, I think I can use your blood to determine Maka's location, and maybe also sense his current state. Just use my empathy rules. This is a good idea I just thought of! If you

If you also want to know if Maca is okay, then please help me!"

Speaking of this, she suddenly stretched out her hand and grabbed Furong's sleeve, and said with a sincere expression:

"Miss Delacour, please, I'm really worried about Maka. And then I thought... you should feel the same way."

Although she almost didn't understand what Luna was saying, Luna's last few sincere words made it difficult for Fleur to refuse.

And after all, isn't it just a few drops of blood?

"Okay, I understand," Fleur looked at Luna and said, "Because MacLean seems to have always trusted you, so I can barely trust you once! You... you come with me."

Before she finished speaking, she turned back and glanced towards the office, then strode over there. Luna and Gabrielle saw this and hurriedly followed.

"Put the knife away first!" Gabrielle whispered, holding Luna aside.

"Liya, this is the minister's guest. I will take her to the minister's secretary's office first. If there is any work, you can help me!"

"Okay!" The female colleague sitting next to Furong heard this and nodded immediately, "I want two of Mrs. Shell Pearl's Mandela chestnut cakes after get off work!"

"Okay, okay, I understand...thank you."

Furong waved her hand, and then closed the office door.

"Let's go to the back of the archives downstairs. No one will go there... Miss Lovegood, remember to move as quickly as possible. You are here to interview the survivors. If you are discovered, I will

It’s hard to explain.”

"Yeah, I understand."

Luna followed her and walked forward quickly. However, Fleur was tall and had long legs, so she walked very fast. She could only barely keep up by trotting with her legs upside down. And she was even taller than Luna.

This is even more true for the younger Gabrielle.

By the time the three of them reached the bottom floor, Luna and Gabrielle were already a little out of breath.

"Oh, these cabinets are so beautiful"

Although she was in a hurry, Luna couldn't help but exclaimed when she saw that the middle of the three underground floors was actually occupied by piles of tree trunk-shaped movable cabinets, which looked like a forest.

"In the middle of this floor is the archives room. It is also the largest archives room in Europe. When all visitors register, the receptionist will automatically compare the files through the movable filing cabinets here to register." Furong said, taking the

They walked along the circular corridor to the back of the filing cabinets, "Here we are...the rooms next to them are basically storage rooms. Unless there are any collections that need to be stored, there will only be one inspection in the morning and one in the evening. We

Just pick any room."

As soon as she finished speaking, she took out her wand and locked a door a little, then opened the door and waved her hand:

"Come in quickly!"

"oh."

Luna and Gabrielle nodded and walked in with curiosity on their faces. After all, this is an area of ​​the French Ministry of Magic that is not open to the public. If Fleur hadn't led them, they would have been stopped on the road just now.

.

However, there seems to be nothing to see here, because all the collections of the Ministry of Magic are stored in locked cabinets. Apart from the numbers on the cabinet doors and drawers, I don’t even know what is stored inside.

Furong asked them to go to the corner, and then urged:

"Miss Lovegood, tell me what to do!"

"Well," Luna heard, she took out her knife again, made two gestures and said, "Fingers...just fingers will do."

Seeing Fleur raising her hand and extending her index finger as instructed, Luna took out another rune card from her arms that was very similar to Hermione's, and then lightly scratched the opponent's index finger with a knife.

.

A sharp sting made Fleur tremble slightly. After Luna turned the knife sideways and pressed it, a drop of scarlet blood suddenly slipped down and was caught by the card in her other hand.

"Okay," Luna nodded and said, "Then just wait, just wait."

After that, she ignored the blood stains on the blade and put the knife into her pocket, then sat on the floor and took out her wand.

"Maka will be fine, definitely fine."

Luna muttered in a low voice, not sure if she was trying to concentrate or simply praying. After muttering a few times, she raised her wand and pointed at the blood droplets dripping on the runes.

The next second, a flash of light suddenly lit up from the rune in the center of the card, illuminating the originally dark storage room.

At the same time, Fleur and Gabrielle discovered that Luna herself had fallen into a state of sluggishness.
