harry potter book of crimes

Night has fallen, and the heat radiated by the sun during the day is slowly fading over time. Perhaps the cold wind at night has taken away the remaining temperature in the air; or perhaps, this winter is not that easy to pass.

.

On the road between Stifkey and Wells, the night blinded most creatures, but it could not hinder the footsteps of spiders. These guys' five senses are basically insensitive, and they rely on their ability to observe the world.

, is to sense all vibrations and experience changes in surrounding temperature.

Therefore, they were able to accurately determine the opponent's position even when Bellatrix was invisible, and after discovering that the opponent had slipped, they launched a timely attack.

These alienated Acromantulas raised by Maka have powerful sight effects that can petrify others. But if Bellatrix remains invisible all the time, this surprisingly useful ability will be of no use.

"...Did you apparate from here?"

In the middle of the road, Maka could carefully sense the remaining magic power fluctuations in the air. Not long ago, he was still able to analyze clear enough magic information from it.

At his feet, several thumb-sized Acromantulas were crawling back and forth, waiting for Maka to issue the next command to them.

"No need to wait for me, go for a walk by yourself!" Maka thought for a while and found that they were still staying beside her, so she waved her hand casually, "Pay attention and follow if you find someone using magic. If not,

Whatever you find, go find some food by yourself - it’s still the same, except for people, you can eat whatever you want.”

Before he finished speaking, the spiders immediately scattered happily and left.

Maka thought about it for a moment, then took out a magic book and threw it forward, flying along the road with the book. There were still a lot of clouds tonight, and there were shadows in the shadows, even if he didn't disappear,

The shape is also very difficult for anyone to discover.

From here, the town of Dowells was actually not that far away. He only flew for a short while and saw sparse houses and buildings starting to appear in front of him. As the roofs passed by, they became more and more

Dense, he knew, the town of Wells had arrived.

Based on the information just obtained from the residual magic power fluctuation, Maka found that the approximate appearance point was near the convenience store on the east side of the town. There was a parking lot here, and there were quite a few Muggles who came to the store to shop. It seemed that the area was brightly lit.

.

Maka avoided the sight of Muggles and returned to the ground. She took a few casual steps on the street and soon found the exact location where Bellatrix appeared. In fact, for him, it was best to wait until he was not active.

In the magical world of Muggles, it is really easy to find a place with a magical atmosphere.

Of course, Bellatrix would obviously not be stupid enough to stay where she was. Maka looked around and found no other fluctuations in magic power. It seemed that the other party had not chosen to apparate away on the spot.

"If she takes a ride, it won't be easy to find." He looked at the parking lot of the convenience store across the street and thought about it.

If a pure-blood fanatic gets on a Muggle vehicle, it is actually a very incredible thing. They have always been completely intolerable to the existence of Muggles, and they are even more disdainful of things made by Muggles.

After a quick glance, Maka was not sure whether Bellatrix would temporarily put aside the principles deep in her heart when she was eager to escape.

"Well?"

Just as Maka was looking around and thinking about countermeasures in his mind, he suddenly saw a figure from behind in the distance.

No, to be more precise, what made him notice that figure was actually the other person's long black hair that looked like a moldy mop. Among the crowd, that frighteningly messy hairstyle was really eye-catching.

It can be said that it is difficult for him not to notice.

But what made Maka slightly surprised was that the other party was actually walking side by side with a Muggle woman. The two of them looked like a pair of completely different sisters.

If this scene happened to anyone else, he wouldn't be surprised, but if it happened to that crazy woman Bellatrix, it would be very strange.

Would a complete Death Eater walk happily together with a Muggle? Ask Maka, he would definitely not believe it, even if he saw Bellatrix slaughtering Muggles crazily.

He wouldn't be as hesitant as he is now.

After thinking about it for a moment, he decided to follow him secretly for a while to see what Bellatrix was up to.

Not long after, he used the Disguise Charm and walked not far behind the strange pair. While dodging pedestrians around him from time to time, he curiously looked at the two people who didn't get along at all.

The Muggle woman looked quite young, and her dress was closer to the style of young people in recent years, but the changes brought about by her marriage were obvious - she was holding a baby in her arms, and she was walking

Looking down, the love shown for the child is obvious.

But beside her, Bellatrix just followed step by step. Apart from walking side by side, there was no sign of any acquaintance between the two of them.

Even if it was perfunctory, it would not be as stiff as Bellatrix's performance, which shows how reluctant she is in her heart.

It seems that instead of taking the opportunity to cover up, taking the Muggle woman as a hostage in an emergency is the choice she made. But, will this work?

Yes, because of the existence of the "International Statute of Secrecy", under normal circumstances, Aurors will try their best to avoid affecting the lives of Muggles. But now it is such a big thing as hunting down escaped Death Eaters. One or two Muggles

Hey, most experienced Aurors will not make concessions.

If this crazy woman doesn't hurry up and escape, why is she following the Muggles here? You know, even though more than half of the Aurors are chasing her accomplices, the rest will find their way here sooner or later——

Especially the one leading the team today is Kingsley, an elite Auror with a very good brain.

Maka and Kingsley had worked together several times before, and he knew very well that the guy's ability was worthy of his status. But this time, Bellatrix was chased by Kingsley. Why?

They are much clearer than Maca.

Sure enough, after Maka continued to follow for a while, he sensed several magic waves suddenly appearing behind him. He knew that an Auror had probably detected the previous clues on the road and had apparated over.

Aurors always have a set of rules for doing things, especially in the Muggle world. They will choose to clear the place in advance. If a Muggle sees something they shouldn't see, the aftermath will be handled by the "Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters"

Colleagues will have to work hard for days and nights, and their quarterly and annual bonuses will be wiped out.

After a while, Bellatrix noticed with vigilance that there were fewer and fewer Muggles around, and soon no one could be seen.

She had been waiting for this moment to come, and decisively reached out to the side to fish out, only to find that she had gotten nothing!

"Want to threaten others with a Muggle child?" A black shadow suddenly rushed past Bellatrix. When he stopped, there was already an extra child in his arms. "You are still as scary as ever.

?My dear cousin..."

That was Sirius. At that moment, he quickly passed behind Bellatrix in his Animagus form, and then very smoothly took away the pair after transforming into human form.

The whole set of movements of the young Muggle mother and daughter were so smooth that even Maka, who was planning to take action at the side, couldn't help but nod secretly.

As far as Animagus transformation is concerned, Sirius may be better than him.

"It's you!" Bellatrix didn't succeed. She stared at Sirius with extreme annoyance and cursed viciously, "The traitor of the family, the shame of pure blood... How dare you appear in front of me!"

"What's there to be afraid of?" Sirius casually handed the child back to the bewildered woman, and said calmly, "Have you ever seen me afraid of anything?"

"Damn!" Bellatrix looked around, "Don't forget, you are still on the Ministry of Magic's wanted list! Do you want to go back to Aziz just to haunt me?"

Are you going to live in Kaban?”

"What's wrong with this?" Sirius squinted his eyes, stared at Bellatrix and snorted coldly, "If I am thrown into Azkaban again, it only means that I have a destiny with that place. Of course,

If you, my cousin, are with me, I think I will feel more at ease living there..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two magic spells instantly collided and exploded into a cloud of brilliant light particles. It turned out that these cousins ​​of the Black family actually activated the magic spell at the same time, moving

He started very decisively.

They are indeed a pair of actual siblings. They may be completely different in how they behave, but they are surprisingly similar in some aspects.

Maka, who was hiding on the side, watched them fighting with each other. He just looked at it for a few times and then turned his head. He sensed that the Aurors blocking the street were quickly gathering here and would arrive here soon.

Got it.

It is conceivable that it is probably because of Kingsley that there is such a gap here. But after all, Kingsley is still an Auror of the Ministry of Magic in name, so delaying time cannot be too obvious. It can delay the pursuit.

His pace was already his limit.

Maka no longer thought about it, and took advantage of the chaos of Sirius and Bellatrix's fight to knock Bellatrix unconscious with a sneak attack.

"Let's go! The Auror is here!"

He put the Disillusionment Curse on both Sirius and the comatose Bellatrix, and then quickly left this place of trouble and trouble, carrying the latter's dropped suitcase.
