Hogwarts: The Cat Wizard of the Moving Castle

"So it's you." Loreton's face suddenly darkened, and his voice seemed to be squeezed out of his throat.

He also recognized that this guy was the British guy who pretended to be lost yesterday.

But at this moment, the auras of the two were completely different. If yesterday he laughed and called him a country bumpkin from somewhere in the UK, then what was standing in front of him today was completely incomprehensible to him...

"My behavior was a bit presumptuous last night, but I think... I didn't cause you too much loss, right." Mu En said with a smile in Greek.

"You... know Greek?" Loreton felt a little embarrassed in his heart.

"I know a little bit, after all, I still need to read some ancient books..."

Loreton felt ashamed at these words. He couldn't even understand the things in the ancient books... Listening to the chats of the people in the cultural relics restoration office was like listening to heavenly scriptures.

Moon ignored the topic indifferently: "If I have caused you any trouble, I think my behavior may have given Gilderoy Lockhart a little more confidence."

Speaking of which, that's so true.

If there is anyone who ranks first among the people he hates now, it is definitely not the bold dark wizard in front of him.

But Gilderoy Lockhart!

This guy is really annoying and annoying.

"So, because he guessed correctly yesterday, it was natural for him to follow today?" Mu En said with a smile.

"No, I will drive him away." Loreton held his forehead helplessly.

"Now that you are defined as a dark wizard, if the news about our cooperation with you comes from Lockhart's mouth, it will definitely be an indelible scandal.

Last night I didn't find a reason to detain him directly, but let him follow me. It was the biggest mistake! "

"I understand. After all, his identity can indeed be as slippery as a loach under public opinion and the system." Mu En said.

"Stop talking, let's go inside and talk."

With that said, the group of people walked towards the cafe, and when they reached the door, Lockhart noticed the presence of a few people, quickly separated himself from the fans, and walked over with his eight-petal teeth exposed.

Several people walked directly past him and walked into it.

Outside the door of a quiet cubicle on the second floor, Loreton led the three people into the cubicle, then turned around and stopped Lockhart.

"Okay, Mr. Lockhart, please leave."

Lockhart's expression froze for a moment, then he smiled and said, "Aren't we working together to discuss things?"

"No, I'm really sorry. The things we are talking about now involve some secrets. In addition, I remember that we didn't invite you last night, and you were scared to death..."

"Are you scared? No, no, no." He shook his head repeatedly: "That is to show weakness to the enemy. I often use this trick. You can do it under my -"

"So you don't deny that we didn't invite you to participate in today's private discussion, right?" Loreton interrupted him unceremoniously.

"I think you should continue your Christmas trip to Greece."

After saying that, he slammed the door.

"Damn... you blind guy..."

There was a clicking sound and the door opened again.

"If you dare to tell what you know in any public place, I will arrest you for public opinion crimes and obstruction of official duties." He warned, his eyes seemed to see through what Lockhart was thinking.

"No, this is my own right." Lockhart looked unkind.

"You have your freedom of speech, but believe me, most of what you say is wrong."

After saying that, the door closed again.

Lockhart looked at the closed door with a look of dissatisfaction on his face. He shook his fist at the door panel twice, then seemed to let out a bad breath, straightened his robes, and then turned around and left.

"I saw it with my own eyes...it was wrong..."

Inside the room, Mu En looked at Loreton who sat down with an unhappy look on his face.

"Actually, you can just erase his memory."

"I am an Auror, and I must abide by my professional ethics." Loreton said unhappily and punched the table.

"Although I am reluctant to let him leave like this, the bottom line must be adhered to."

Mu En shrugged and sighed: "I can't tell you have a very high professional ethics..."

To be lowered!

He thought of Dumbledore's old friend.

It was the old friend he borrowed the looking glass from. Moon heard that that guy was a ruthless Auror. Half of the cells in Azkaban were filled with that person, and all of them were serious criminals.

The kind that once you go in, it's impossible to come out alive.

So his house was filled with looking glasses. The reason is naturally that he is stared at by some criminals every day, hoping that he will die quickly.

It is said that when Dumbledore borrowed half of the looking glasses from his house, he had trouble sleeping every day.

"I can sit here with you, and my professional ethics is not that high." Loreton said angrily, and his words made several people laugh.

"Let's get back to business." He knocked on the table: "You said cooperation, actually because you also want those two books."

"Of course, I can't bear to miss out on these treasures just a few days away." Mu En said frankly: "Of course, what we said yesterday is still included in the transaction."

Loreton hesitated on his face, and then said: "This question...I must regret to tell you that we do not have any ancient classics on magic by great sages such as Plato and Aristotle."

After finishing speaking, he added: "Maybe there is one in the UK, I'm not sure about this..."

"No, neither does Britain." Hockleton shook his head and said, "Currently, these great sages don't seem to have any records of magic spread around the world."

Hearing this, not only Moon's heart sank, but Harry on the side felt a little disappointed.

Although he didn't understand...but at least he had heard of those names.

Then Harry saw Moon scanning the two of them carefully and slowly said, "Are you sure the accuracy of this statement? You know, we are still building trust."

"There's no need to lie to you about this," Loreton said.

"You did not damage any ancient books yesterday, including those fragile stone tablets. So I trust you in the ancient books, no, it should be said that I trust your emphasis on knowledge. There is no need to hide it."

Mu En was silent for a moment. When Shockleton heard Loreton's words, he looked at Mu En with some confusion on his face, and then quickly calmed down.

"Jones, I think there is really no need for them to tell lies to excuse you on this matter."

Mu En was silent for a while, leaning her hands together and stroking the ring.

"What do you mean now? Are the classics you took away enough to support our cooperation?" Loreton looked at Mu En and asked tentatively.

Mu En looked at him, thinking in her heart.

Actually...enough, far enough.

But...he is not just a temporary worker. He doesn't want to do anything, and he really has no respect for his past identity...

"Add more chips."

"What do you want? Social status? Or ancient books?" Lockton looked at him.

The wizarding world is really not big. Although the name of an Auror team leader may sound small, in this narrow single system, what he says already carries a lot of weight.

"No need...social status has nothing to do with me, and ancient books and cultural relics are gifts left to you by your ancestors. I just want the knowledge above."

"You have already obtained the knowledge." The corner of Loreton's mouth twitched.

"If it's something cherished, I might be able to fight for it from my superiors."

Mu En didn't think about it for too long, and nodded: "Okay."

"After the matter is completed, we can discuss it in detail?"

Mu En nodded casually: "As long as you give me something with a clear conscience, that's enough."

With that said, he planned to quickly skip this negotiation-like exchange.

No matter how much we talk now, there is no way we can use our fists.

The Ministry of Magic itself is the maker of the rules, while Moon is a free man. There is no organization that can supervise and notarize the discussion between the two people.

Unless a contract is constructed.

"What about you? Professor Huckleton?" Loreton looked at Huckleton.

"It is the best gift to give me the opportunity to come into contact with these secret treasures that carry a rich history." Hockleton nodded slightly, and his requirements were completely different from Mu En's.

After finalizing the details, Loreton began dictating to the two the clues they had investigated so far.

The incident happened in the early morning four days ago. The thief possessed extremely advanced confusion techniques and interrupted almost all detection techniques.

In several Greek magic settlements, they found nothing, and the vast majority of wizards were unable to provide effective clues.

To put it simply... it is a confusion spell, an extremely high-level confusion spell, which makes the Ministry of Magic very difficult to deal with the entire case. It can only strictly supervise various places in an attempt to find clues.

"He only stole two classics on mathematics..." Mu En thought for a moment.

With no hesitation and purpose, no other items were touched at all...

"By the way, you have checked the floo network and the portkey transmission network. There is also the possibility of internal crimes. And have you taken precautions for the entry and exit of transportation routes such as trains, planes, and ships?"

"Yes, now the whole of Greece is only allowed in and out." He nodded, and then said helplessly: "Of course, if he insists on leaving from other places..."

There seems to be no way around this.

After all... we are all wizards.

"Are you going to go to the ministry to investigate first or...?" Loreton asked.

Mu En shook his head, stood up and relaxed his muscles.

"By the way, who is the most well-informed and knowledgeable person here in Greece?"

"Charon, the owner of the Three-Headed Dog Bar, has been dealing in prohibited items secretly." Loreton said.

"Take me to find him." Mu En said.

"Jones, that guy is very powerful, and we still have no handle on him. Don't think too simply." Loreton couldn't help but say, his face full of doubts.

"You'll know if you try it." Mu En said and walked out of the door.

After a while, several people walked through the alley on the side of the square and entered a dark old street.

Later, under the leadership of Loreton, a group of four people walked into an old but lively tavern.

As soon as he entered, the smell of cigarettes, alcohol mixed with herbs and body odor swept over him.

He couldn't help but sniff his nose and quickly sealed his nasal cavity.

"Who is Charon?" Mu En asked directly.

"That's the one with long hair over there." Loreton pointed to a thin man with long hair who was drinking alone in front of the bar.

"He's very strong and has a lot of fans."

"I know him!" Hockleton also suddenly said: "This guy seems to have been on the wanted list of the Magic Congress of the United States..."

"Oh." Mu En looked at Loreton: "Didn't the Magic Congress arrest him directly?"

"I think Greece still has some status in the wizarding world. Don't judge us by the situation of the No-Majs. The wizarding world has been completely separated from the No-Maj world!"

"Whatever." Mu En walked straight towards Charon.

Suddenly, a tall guy stopped him with an angry look, looking very untouchable.

"Go away."

Mu En and the man said in unison.

Mu En looked at the silly big man in front of him, as well as the smell of alcohol on his body and what he just said, and laughed unconsciously.

This kind of purely malicious collision that is unique in the filthy area has not been experienced for a long time.

As he spoke, he raised his hand.

"Alcaste, get out of the way, how could you be so rude to our Aurors." A sharp voice emerged from the thin, long-haired man.

The strong man called Alcaste muttered unhappily: "Be more honest with me."

After saying that, he moved away.

Mu En walked forward and leaned on the bar.

"Charon?"

"It's me. I wonder which official in the Ministry of Magic you are, or maybe you are a descendant of an ancient family?"

"No, I'm just an ordinary person." Mu En smiled: "I came to you to ask about the Pythagoras thief."

"I don't know." Charon said, holding the cup in one hand and shaking it gently.

"I remember telling Loreton that I knew nothing about this. I am just an ordinary person in the wizarding world. How could I know those things."

"Don't know? Then help me find out." Mu En said.

"Can't do it!" He shook his head, and a thick gold brick suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"Can you do this?" Mu En asked.

In an instant, the noise in the entire bar disappeared, and his breathing became much heavier.

"I remember that in the legend, Charon is relatively reputable in business. So I think it would be a good choice to use this to promote it." Mu En's voice sounded in the bar.

Even without magic, those guys had their ears pricked up at this time, trying to hear clearly what Mu En said.

Charon's eyes flashed with emotion, and then he sneered.

"You think I'm just begging for food? That's all?!"

As he spoke, he drank the remaining wine in the glass.

"It can't be done."

"Then this, plus this! Can you do it?!" Mu En said again.

A wand was pressed against the gold brick, slowly on the rough wooden bar, and pushed towards Charon.

"Add what?" Charon said, looking unkind.

"You've already seen it." Mu En said calmly.

At the same time, the gold brick was pushed in front of Charon and collided with the wine glass he had just put down, making a crisp clanging sound.

The blood vessels in Charon's neck bulged and beat continuously, and his hands were crossed with anger.

"Are you threatening me? An Auror, threatening me? I will report it to the Ministry of Magic. Everyone here will see it."

"Shut up, idiot." Moon interrupted him, and then said slowly: "Who told you that I am an Auror and that I am from the Ministry of Magic?!"

When it comes to ordinary people, he has always followed thieves' moral principles and is unwilling to offend too much. Just like when he was at the British Ministry of Magic, he would only modify the memories of the Aurors who were hostile to him and ridiculed him to facilitate himself. Get away, that's all.

But for those evil people who are either slick, rampant, cruel and stupid...

There is nothing more direct and effective than fighting evil with evil.

"Charon, you know very well that you are not a good person."

From this close distance, Mu En could already smell the rotten smell of black magic and the smell of blood on his body.

As he spoke, he waved his wand lightly, petrifying Alcaste who was about to take out the wand directly to the ground.

"It just so happens that I'm not a good person either."

Suddenly, the entire tavern burst into riots. Drinkers stood up one after another. The tables and chairs were banging. Some people smashed their wine glasses, and then fiercely pulled out their wands and pointed them at him.

Loreton immediately pulled out his wand, pointed it at the drinkers, and angrily shouted: "Put down the wand, you have nothing to do here!"

In my heart, I probably already scolded Mu En.

Huckleton followed suit and drew his wand in a self-defense gesture.

However, Harry's speed was no less than that of Loreton, the leader of the Auror team. He quickly and quietly stood in front of Moon, and calmly raised his wand to his chest.

Mu En ignored all this and just looked at the long-haired man.

"It's either a fight and the winner takes all."

"Either, accept the reward honestly and do the work."
