Hogwarts Rising Again

Chapter 212 Sweet Things
"Mr. Adams, you..." Mo Lin looked at Adams, not many people could know Hogwarts, but Adams didn't even have a wand, he didn't look like a wizard.

"I'm a Squib." Adams breathed out.

"Sorry, I don't know." Maureen put down his wand. The Squib was born in a wizarding family but had no magical ability. If Adams was a Squib, then there was no need to cast the Oblivion Curse.

"It's okay, thank you for saving me." Adams stretched his neck and saw the restaurant where he had been sucked into a ball by magic, and then opened his mouth wide: "Who has any enmity with my restaurant?"

Maureen cast his eyes on Sweet, and Sweet asked Adams, saying in a deep voice, "Do you know Lucas?"

"Lucas? I don't know." Adams shook his head.

"Sweet, who is Lucas? That person was Lucas just now?" Mo Lin asked.

Sweet was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"What are you chasing him for?" Mo Lin asked.

"It's none of your business."

"It has something to do with these Muggles! Especially Mr. Adams, he was attacked!" Maureen was annoyed at Sweet's tone.

Sweet kept silent, and said after a while, "Sorry, it's my fault."

"Apology is not enough. There are so many Muggles in the town watching. If it was an ordinary explosion, it could explain the gas leak, but this—" Molin pointed to the huge ball formed by the collapse of the ruins, "You better explain it Clearly, this restaurant is not twisted like this for no reason."

"Yeah, I won't be able to eat char-grilled beef brisket at night." Hugo interjected.

An Ran has already helped Sweet heal the burn on his arm, and Sweet said sullenly: "The thing in Lucas's hand is very difficult to entangle, all I know is that he used this method to escape last time." Yes, that thing is a magnet strengthened by magic, which can attract everything to it."

Sweet looked up at Maureen, and continued: "Including any spells, they will be sucked away by the magnet, and they can only leave with Apparition."

"What is he doing with this dangerous magnet?" It was the first time Molin had heard of such a strange magnet.

"I'm checking."

"Then how do you know this magnet is here?" Maureen asked, the explosion and fire happened before Sweet's arrival, Maureen and Hugo happened to be here for a reason, but Sweet had no reason It just doesn't make sense to appear here.

"I'm not looking for this magnet, I'm looking for him." Sweet touched his healed arm, and said to An Ran: "Thank you."

"You're welcome." An Ran was very interested in their conversation and listened very curiously.

"How do you track down Lucas?" Morin asked.

"This is my own business." Sweet didn't want to answer this question, he stared at Adams and said, "But this restaurant must have something he wants, otherwise he wouldn't appear here."

"Is there anything in my restaurant that he wants?" Adams looked very puzzled, "I just opened an ordinary restaurant! I don't know this person, and there are no magic items here."

"Maybe there is, but you ignored it." Sweet said bluntly.

"So who is this Lucas?" Morin asked.

"A dark wizard." Sweet clenched his fists. "He caused the same riot in the neighborhood where I live. My sister was affected and is still unconscious."

Maureen froze for a moment, he had never known Sweet's family before.

"I didn't know you had a sister." Maureen knew fairly little about Sweet.

"He's not my own sister, but a Muggle. In the orphanage, she treated me as her brother." Sweet's eyes were full of anger. "I didn't know what happened last month until I came back from school."

Maureen and Hugo glanced at each other, and they didn't even know that Sweet grew up in an orphanage, and Sweet rarely mentioned these things to them.

"Huh? You grew up with Muggles, why do you still have to take Muggle studies?" Hugo was surprised.

"I didn't grow up with Muggles, I only came to the orphanage for two years." Sweet glanced at Hugo.

"Two years?" Mo Lin's heart moved slightly. So, Sweet was orphaned two years ago?

Sweet didn't seem to want to explain his background, saying: "And it's not a conflict, I just don't want to miss any classes in school."

Hugo rolled his eyes. For him, he was very happy to miss a class, but there are still people who think that he has too few classes.

"Didn't the Ministry of Magic deal with it? I mean, didn't they help with your sister's treatment?" Maureen asked.

Sweet said angrily: "The people in the Ministry of Magic don't care about her at all. They only know how to cover up the truth and make the Muggles believe that it was a terrorist attack. When I knew about this, a month had passed, and my sister was also there." Been in bed for a month, I don't know how to get someone from the Ministry of Magic, I tried to heal her with magic myself, but..."

"Have you received a warning from the owl of the Ministry of Magic?" Hugo was all too familiar with such things.

Sweet snorted heavily.

"Then did you use magic outside of school just now..." Molin looked at the wand in Sweet's hand. Just now, Sweet cast a lot of magic on that wizard in the fire scene.

The joints of Sweet's bones turned white: "If the Ministry of Magic doesn't do anything, I will do it myself."

"You don't have to come by yourself." Mo Lin said bluntly, "I will help."

Sweet glanced at Maureen, his chest rose and fell slightly for a moment, and soon calmed down.

"Thank you." Sweet's voice lowered, "You saved me in the fire just now."

Mo Lin didn't take it seriously, he would have saved anyone else.

"But it's strange, you haven't received that talking letter yet." Hugo looked around, trying to find the owl in the sky, "Even if you are self-protecting, you will receive the letter , last time James just secretly slapped a mosquito with his wand to death in the woods, and that nasty letter flew in within 2 minutes. Your owl won’t get lost in this letter, will it?”

Mo Lin also found it strange that the efficiency of the Ministry of Magic should not be so low.He stood up, walked towards the big ball that was attracted by the magnet, and examined it carefully, that Lucas probably had Apparated away long ago.

"You can apparate?" Sweet came over and asked in a low voice, "You just cast magic, why didn't you receive a warning letter?"

"It's a long story, I'll explain it to you when I have time." Mo Lin looked towards the panicked Muggle crowd, the ambulance was already waiting there, and the police who arrived didn't know how to deal with the situation.

He walked back to Adams who was sitting on the grass and said, "Mr. Adams, staff from the Ministry of Magic may come to you later, but please don't tell us about us, can you?"

Maureen gestured to his wand and continued, "I don't want to cause trouble."

"I understand, I understand." Adams moved his arms and said quickly: "I understand the Ministry of Magic. You saved me. I can't let you be expelled."

Just as he was talking, two men in suits walked out of the woods over there. Their leather shoes were polished and glistened in the sun, and they were wearing sunglasses. They were quite cool.They went to the police and showed their IDs. Mo Lin vaguely heard the two men talking about what they were "MI[-]" and they were in charge of handling this matter.

"MI007? Oh my God! Is that the intelligence department where agent [-] works?" An Ran exclaimed, "They actually exist. I always thought that they could only be seen in movies. They came so fast!"

"Oh, of course they're coming soon." Mo Lin glanced at the two men, and said disapprovingly, "Those two guys are the ones who reversed accidents, and I still know one of them!"
