"Mr. Union Worker, someone used the portal in the upper hall just now ... It looks like it came in from the outside, you see?"
"Don't worry about getting in and out, most of them coming in now are people who come to investigate. For example, those of the British Ministry of Aurora and Strikemen ... In short, no matter who they come, it has nothing to do with us! Besides, they also have to spend money to get in anyway-but whose money it is, it is obviously not so important! "
There are many fairies coming and going in the underground vault of Anling Pavilion. They are either sitting in a minecart, wandering along the track, or complaining about the difficulties of the world together.
Even the fairy guild leader of the Wizarding Union of the Dark Spirit Court seemed a little bored at the moment.
No way, due to the repeated turbulence of the black market, the formerly hot business of the dark soul court has become increasingly deserted. And the Dark Spirit Pavilion fairies who have lost a lot of income all of a sudden have recently stretched their faces every day, and they have become less and less motivated to continue working.
So, now that the mist is gradually covering the entire black market, the leader of the Fairy Guild of the Dark Spirit Pavilion simply brought all the fairies into the underground vault.
Because he felt that instead of staying on top of it, it was both dangerous and not profitable, but it was better to pretend that the buildings on both sides of the entrance passage had already been attacked, and to give priority to avoiding the limelight.
"Yeah yeah! We just have to wait for them to put in three Yinxike tickets for each of them!"
The other leprechaun standing next to the union leader squeaked sharply, holding a thick cigar in his hand, trimming his mouth for the union chief.
Speaking of which, he suddenly raised his head again and flattered the union chief:
"To be honest, I actually support that Haierbo-they are all wizards anyway. Since he can help us reduce the wizard population, maybe we will be fairies when the next IWC conference begins. I have won a place for the Senate! At that time, I will definitely support you, Mr. Trade Union Chief, to be elected! "
"Federations?"
I saw the head of the fairy union shook his head casually.
"This kind of thing, let Gu Lingge blend in! Let's not forget that our responsibility since ancient times is to handle underground matters ... Of course, I would like to kill some wizards! Maybe the heirs of a large vault below are dead, and when the claim period expires, we will have another extra income. "
Even at his current age, it is certain that he can't wait for the end of the claim period, but he will still be excited when he thinks of the increase in the book value of the Dark Spirit Court in the future.
"But if that's the case, why don't we cooperate directly with that Haierbo?" The fairy who was cutting the cigar heard the words, suddenly wondering.
"No, it's not necessary," the union chief waved his hand. "It's just a matter of helping each other! After all, don't look at the horrific situation that Haierbo made, but McLean of Hogwarts also Not a messy guy ... let's not act lightly without knowing the result! "
...
Hermione didn't know that she had actually guessed earlier--the collapse and destruction of the Dark Pavilion and the gallery outside the passage was indeed a camouflage tossed out by the fairies.
Of course, wasn't that disguise at the moment, it didn't seem so important to her.
"Ron, don't go too far! And Ginny, you too ... Although you can't tell if this is the source of the fog, it doesn't look like a safe place here, everyone is vigilant. "
Right now the four have left the Dark Pavilion, which has been turned into ruins, to the streets outside. The old street lamps on the street are still emitting light, but under the influence of the fog, those magical hanging lamps that have not been brightly lit have become significantly more dim.
In this way, walking on this not very wide street, Hermione just felt as if at any time it might be possible to see the black wizard rushing out of the dark alleys next to it, giving them a sudden attack.
However, when the four of them walked carefully on this street for a while, they found out that they are not black wizards, not even one figure!
It must be said that there are really many shops along the street in this black market, and among the lanes behind the storefront, there are countless new and old buildings that look like residential houses.
But what about people?
"I suddenly felt that coming here to find someone was not a clever choice ..." Hermione said slightly annoyed, "I thought the black market was just a shopping street about the same size as Diagon Alley. But it turned out to be comparable Corner Lane and Overturned Lane add up to many times more ... "
Talking, he shook his head.
"Even if Fred and George are really here, the probability that we can find them is too small! Rather than wandering around, I think we might as well go back to the entrance and wait!"
"Oh, this is a good idea," Ron nodded and agreed immediately. "Ginny, Luna, why don't you guys go there and guard? The four of us are scrambling around the streets and lanes. After all, the efficiency is low, but Especially easy to miss with them. "
However, Ginny was obviously reluctant to stay in the Ark of the Underpass.
"Why don't you go?" She pursed, "Don't let me wait in the same place, I can't wait!"
"Shh--"
The two were talking, but Luna raised her forefinger beside her mouth and whispered to them that they should stop talking. Then she saw her ears sideways, as if she heard something.
Seeing this, Hermione followed her concentration to listen to the surrounding movements, but found that she had heard nothing.
After a while, she saw Luna crooked her head in doubt, and whispered:
"Luna, what's wrong?"
"Hmm ..." Luna blinked her big grey eyes, a little puzzled, "I seemed to hear someone talking just now, it was a female voice ... but that voice was too vague, I couldn't hear her What are you talking about. "
"Female?" Hermione frowned and thought for a moment, then wondered, "Why didn't I hear ... then did you hear where the voice came from? Also, what does that voice sound like? age?"
Luna heard the words and shook her head hesitantly.
"No, I don't know," she said. "It seems to be nearby, but it seems to be far away ... the voice is vague, it seems young ... strange."
Although it's not clear who made the "female voice" that Luna heard, she didn't even know if she heard it wrong. But thinking that the person they were looking for was only Mrs. Weasley and a woman, Hermione felt that it might be better to ignore that voice.
After all, who knows whether it is the effect of the black magic that tempts others to hook?
"In short, as long as it doesn't sound like Mrs. Weasley's voice, don't worry about it!" She pondered for a moment, even if she waved, "Let's move on! Ron, Ginny, etc. Going around here, we can leave a phoenix sign at the entrance, which should keep us from passing by with your parents and brothers ... "
It is undoubtedly very unwise to act separately in such a seemingly dangerous place. That's why she always asks everyone to stay together, and doesn't choose a separate and more efficient search.
However, because the people in the black market have either escaped from this place, or have already hid in a place they think is safe and secret enough, so that the four Hermione walked in the streets for a long time and did not see anyone.
The entire black market seems to have become a ghost town filled with fog and empty.
When the four friends thought that they would continue to search in this depressed atmosphere of silence, and finally found nothing, they were cold, but suddenly they heard a strange sound from far to near.
"Click, click, click-"
The four heard their voices, turned their heads, and looked subconsciously in the direction of the sound—obviously, this time, unlike Luna, it was not audible.
"It seems like ... came over from the main road just now?"
This time it was Ron's first opening, and he saw him looking out the other side of the roadway behind him. The fog and darkness made him hard to see no matter how hard he tried.
"Hermione, shall we go and see?" Ginny looked hesitant.
On the other side, Hermione saw Ron and Ginny both looking at themselves, and even nodded.
"You have to check it out," she shrugged, "isn't it?"
It can be seen that she is actually a bit worried about what it is and whether it will put them in danger ~ EbookFREE.me ~ but who can guarantee that it is not the sound of the person they are looking for? How about it?
Thinking about it that way, Hermione took the other three and walked back quickly. They walked fast, but they were also very alert, and they tried to make their footsteps as light as possible, so as not to attract the attention of others.
But as the main road got closer and closer, they finally heard what the sound was.
"... It should be a carriage!" Hermione lowered her voice, speeding her pace as she said, "and ... we may not be able to keep up."
Sure enough, when the four hurriedly ran back to the street and looked out, they found that nothing was visible outside, only the sound of the horseshoes and the friction of the wheels rolling on the brick road gradually drifted away .
"Are we ... going to catch up?"
"No, no," Hermione immediately shook her head. "No matter what, Fred and George wouldn't be able to pass by in a carriage."
