The Evil God of Hogwarts

No matter which country it is, no matter when it is. Traitors are always despised. Lanny debated whether to name the crooked cop.

To be precise, that guy is not a good person, and he also betrayed his organization. Therefore, betraying a traitor should not be called betrayal.

Thinking of this, he nodded, took out a pen and paper, wrote a name and handed it to Ellie. "This is my sincerity."

The eldest lady pressed the piece of paper with her slender white index finger and slowly moved it in front of her. She lowered her eyes and looked at it with a smile on her lips.

For a moment, Lanny felt a throbbing in his heart, but he quickly suppressed the emotion.

"Very good, Mr. Detective." Ellie turned the piece of paper over, wrote a series of numbers on it, and then pushed it back.

"Generally speaking, this call will be answered early in the morning and at night. If not, it means I am at work and you can tell the hotel front desk that you called."

Lanny nodded, carefully put away the note, and asked with some persistence: "What impression do you have of the person I just mentioned, Quentin?"

"You have proven your sincerity, but not your value." Ellie took a sip of coffee, leaving a red lip on the rim of the cup. "Give me some useful information so that we can communicate on an equal footing."

Lanny wanted to say something more, but when he saw the smile on Ellie's face gradually disappearing, he didn't say anything. Sometimes, people need to know when enough is enough. Temporary forbearance can often be rewarded with generous rewards. At least that's what Lanny thinks.

After he walked out of the cafe, Ellie sat for a while. She planned to finish her cup of coffee and think about what to do next.

Unlike Xing Ze, she now has many resources at her disposal. John and Edwin are investigating the history of "Serpent's Tooth", and John is trying to find a way to contact Nurmengard to see if he can meet Richard Slytherin.

On the Muggle police station's side, except for today's surveillance, they have focused most of their manpower on dealing with the Old Record Gang.

Tyler, who Xing Ze brought back from the warehouse—even though the Old Records Gang hired a lawyer for him—not only confessed that Carmichael was an informant, but he suddenly became speechless when it came to gang affairs and members.

Judging from Harris's inference, the sturdy lawyer brought not only a defense, but also a warning.

But no matter what, the investigation of the Old Record Gang will not stop, but it will not be as high-profile as before. This is Xing Ze's request.

Ribbon, this tough and resolute superintendent obviously has good prestige in the police department. Although Harris was quite dissatisfied with the tightening of the investigation, because of Ribbon, he didn't say much.

There is also the problem of cars. Liverpool is big, but not so big that sports cars are driven everywhere. The police are working overtime to check various parking lots. After checking the parking lots, they will target universities, libraries and other places with parking spaces.

The amount of work is so large that even if Liverpool uses most of its idle police force, it will take nearly a week or so. This is of course only if the investigation goes smoothly.

Ellie frowned, biting the small spoon, thinking about her next plan in her mind. After pondering for a while, she saw herself in the glass and couldn't help but feel funny. She looks more and more like someone now.

…

Xing Ze met the following police officers before the investigators gathered. After learning the whereabouts of the others, he went to the gathering point.

It was a small restaurant on the banks of the Mersey, and when he arrived, only Mike and Serena arrived.

After seeing Xing Ze, the shy girl changed her previous shyness and kept asking Xing Ze about various aspects of the Harry Potter world.

"Miss Serena, I have to explain in advance that this is not a native magical world. As you can see, this world is not only filled with monsters from other worlds, but also many characters that did not appear in the original work. ”

The young girl listened very carefully and even scribbled on her notes. It could indeed be seen that she was a die-hard Harry Potter fan.

The topic eventually stopped when Kelly and Kent arrived. Mike went to the front desk and ordered some food. Although this small restaurant is not as good as Margarita Restaurant, it is better because the food is cheap and the portion is large. It is quite suitable for a group of people to gather.

Lanny was the last to arrive, and he walked briskly to his seat with the pipe in his mouth - this time lit.

The drinks everyone ordered were the same as before. Mike asked the front desk for some French fries and meatball soup, plus some toast and vegetable salad.

When Kent saw that everyone was here, he clapped his hands and said, "Okay, since everyone is here, let me start. Who comes first?"

Kelly obviously got some information, so she volunteered: "I'll go first. According to the information I got from the newspaper, the whole thing may be related to the Old Record Gang."

"Old what?" Mike asked with a frown.

"The Old Record Gang, a local gang," Lanny explained.

Kelly coughed and continued: "Thank you, Mr. Detective. According to the information I have, two members of the Old Record Gang wanted to burn down Frank's office. But they were very unlucky and were discovered before they started. , it was Superintendent Ribbon who discovered them.

"Those two guys should still be locked up in the police station. I tried my luck at the police station, but unfortunately I couldn't get in. The entire police station kept the entire case very secret, even to the point of being airtight."

"Anything else, Miss Kelly?" Lanny asked.

"Time is limited, gentlemen. If you give me more time, maybe I can meet more colleagues."

"It's good. At least we have some progress and new goals." Kent made a smooth move. "If nothing comes from the trip to Brachester, we can still investigate the Old Record Gang. Who's next?"

Xing Ze half-raised his hand and said, "I'm sorry, everyone, I couldn't get more information. St. Mungo's has also strengthened information management."

"It's okay, it can't go smoothly every time." Kent comforted.

"However, I found a lot of information about Brichester." Xing Ze took out some documents from his briefcase.

"Very good." Kent flipped through the document casually and put it aside.

Lanny blew out the smoke from his mouth, put down his pipe, and talked about today's harvest. His reasoning was pretty good and he analyzed almost everything Frank's office got.

"The claw marks on the wall are different from the claw marks on the ground. I suspect there is more than one kind of monster that attacked Frank." He finally said.

Xing Ze was immediately impressed by this colleague. His analysis was logical and clear, and he saw many details. However, this also made Xing Ze worry that people who are too smart are not easily manipulated.

Like Kent, he is an unstable factor and cannot be taken lightly until a position is determined. Xing Ze thought in his heart.

The last person to speak was Kent. He did not tell all the information he had obtained. Keeping a hole in his hand was his usual method.

Finally, after completing tomorrow's itinerary, the party came to an end, and everyone returned to their residence with their own thoughts.

Early the next morning.

According to the plan, Xing Ze, Mike, and Serena will take a van to Braicchester. This is Lanny's point, he doesn't want to put all his eggs in one basket.

Because according to the information Xing Ze got, Brachester is not a tourist destination. There are many weird rumors about that place, and this trip may be full of dangers. Therefore, two groups of people can take care of each other when they go there.

So, Kent, Kelly and Lenny will take the bus. Mike's van will follow the bus.

Mike was high-spirited and talked a lot when driving. In another world, he was an American rural driver who made a living by running long distances.

Because he was addicted to gambling, he was forced to join this game. He has completed two tasks so far, and all the game points he earned have been exchanged for money to support his family and pay off debts.

"I don't know how the software got onto my phone." He smiled and said, "I lost everything in the casino that day, and I didn't even have the money to go back. Then I watched it on my phone. Got this software.”

"Didn't you doubt it at the time?" Serena, who was sitting in the back row, asked.

"Doubt?" Mike laughed. "If you are cornered, you will believe anything. Besides, I need money to support my family. Hey, what about you? Why did you come to this game? of?"

"Exciting. My old life was too boring." Xing Ze lied casually.

"Most people seem to have the same reason," Mike said.

Serena was silent for a while and said: "Kelly, I joined this game through her. It's also for money. Someone in my family is sick and needs money urgently."

Mike picked up the Coke at hand and took a sip and said: "Finally someone is like me. We are a bunch of rookies who have to help each other and take care of each other when the time comes."

"You are not a rookie, you are higher than the two of us."

"Fuck it, man. My two missions were just following other people's butts to pick up the slack, and it didn't have much effect at all. Besides, all my points were used to exchange for money, and they were not used to strengthen my attributes at all. Attributes... Hey, what’s that word called?”

"Attributes?"

"Yes, and...there are skills and so on. I can't understand these complicated things, and I haven't done any research at all. So, even though I am a second-level investigator, in fact, I am a novice just like you two. ”

"Then at least you still have experience." Serena said.

"Experience? Oh, that's true. Let me advise you, you two, there's no harm in being cowardly. If anything happens, don't come forward. Just listen to those who take the lead.

"Speaking of this, Lanni is quite considerate of us. He made us a reserve team directly."

Don't you think we are too cumbersome and just let us take care of the luggage? Xing Ze muttered in his heart.

On the other side, on the bus.

Kent asked Lanny, who was sitting on his right, "Hey, is it a good idea to split up?"

There was an aisle between them, and he wasn't sure whether the other party heard him clearly.

Lanny stuck out his head and whispered back: "What do you think of this mission?"

"What do you mean?"

"Everything about this mission is weird. I always feel something is wrong."

"I feel the same way, but that's why shouldn't we all do it together?"

Kelly also came over and said, "I think so. Don't you all watch movies? In those horror movies, it is taboo for people to move apart."

"Don't get excited, Miss Kelly." Lanny put his finger on his lips and said, "Listen to me first. The three of us are the most capable in this team. As for those three, they are complete newcomers. Mike has indeed completed it. Several missions, but he said that he exchanged all the points for money, so he was the same as the two rookies.

"I don't mean to offend your friend, Miss Kelly. But that's the fact. Is this an A-level mission? It's not something that newcomers can enter. Now there are two at once, which is too much of a burden for the team. Heavy."

Hearing this, Kent gradually understood, "You mean to give up on them?"

Kelly immediately objected: "This is not okay. Serena is also my roommate after all."

"You misunderstood me." Lanny shook his head impatiently, "I don't want to give up on them, but I want them not to interfere with us.

"To put it simply. In order to improve execution, the fewer voices in the team, the better. We don't need too many opinions. The newcomers only need to carry out our instructions.

"So, I suggest that the subsequent discussion should be dominated by us. Some decisions should also be decided by us, so that we will not fall into endless quarrels. As for if there are differences of opinion between us, we can vote by a show of hands."

Kent and Kelly looked at each other, and they had no intention of objecting to Lanny. For Kent, the suggestion certainly cemented his place in the team.

And Kelly, a woman with many thoughts, also likes to be at the decision-making level, so that she can get more information.

"I agree with what you're doing," Kent said, "but how should we explain it to them? I don't think anyone wants to be a handyman, right?"

"To be honest, they must understand that if they want to successfully complete this mission, they have to listen to professionals. I don't want those newcomers to do bad things. You also saw it, the guy named Quentin, he took out his mobile phone like that.

"Hell, you don't know what tricks those newcomers will do. And they don't know what they are facing. It will be even more troublesome if they come into contact with those monsters and cause a mental breakdown. Let them stay behind completely It’s for their consideration.”

Having said this, Lanny paused, looked at Kent's expression and said, "I think as the leader of the team, you should be able to handle this matter, right?"

Kent's heart skipped a beat. He now understood why Lenny didn't compete with him for the position of team leader. It turned out that he had hidden this trick.

"Of course. Like you said, it's for their own good."
