Chapter 49

The next morning.

Merlin got up earlier than Phoebe, of course.Having seen Phoebe's sleepiness firsthand, he never thought his girl would be the kind of early riser.

So he didn't wake her up when he rolled over and got out of bed. There was still some time before the day officially started, and it was okay to take a little more rest.

It wasn't until half an hour later, when Merlin was preparing breakfast in the kitchen, that Phoebe came over yawning.

She stopped at the door and sniffed the air like a small animal: "It smells so good."

Merlin looked back and saw her long messy hair and sleepy eyes, and knew that Phoebe hadn't had time to wash.She was still wearing a nightdress, with her slender calves dangling under the skirt, and a pair of his slippers were on her feet.

This led Merlin to add a "buy her a pair of slippers when I get home" item to her schedule.

"Go and wash your face," Merlin said, "you'll be fine soon."

But Phoebe didn't listen.

Instead, the young girl stepped forward, wrapping her arms around Merlin's waist from behind.

She pressed her cheek against the man's back, sighed comfortably, and even rubbed against him.This made Merlin laugh out loud, and Phoebe became clingy, exactly like the behavior of the white cat.

"Good morning." She mumbled.

Merlin transferred the fried eggs from the pan to the plate, then he turned and said, "Good morning."

He had changed into his clothes, the same shirt and cardigan, but a white apron.It's a very homely look, Phoebe is warm in his apron and in his eyes.

So Phoebe smiled, and she finally came to her senses: "That's it?"

Merlin:?

Phoebe reached out and tapped her cheek.

Insatiable girl.

Merlin laughed, he reached out and hugged Phoebe, and kissed Phoebe on the cheek amidst her exclamation.

Phoebe's cell phone rang during breakfast.

She picked up the phone and glanced at it, and then showed a surprised look: "Merlin, the Ministry of Magic has agreed for you to go to see Cypher!"

So Merlin had to spend the whole morning facing the dark-faced Harry Hart.

With the help of the Aurors, the Ministry of Magic reluctantly acceded to Kings|man's request to speak to Cypher again.As usual, Phoebe suggested that Merlin ask a field agent to accompany him, just in case.

Merlin thought for a while and contacted Harry.

However, Harry, standing in front of the Ministry of Magic interrogation room, was not happy.

Given that Merlin has been a colleague of his predecessor Galahad for so long, helping him uncover the inner ghost in the Pentagon, protecting Thatcher from assassination, being a solid backing for the entire Kings|man and an old friend of Harry Hart , Merlin knew too well what he was like when he was angry.

Even though they had obviously talked about Phoebe and Harry didn't say anything at this moment, Merlin still thought that Harry wanted to shoot him in the head with the black umbrella.

Merlin: "..."

Harry: "..."

After the two men looked at each other for a moment, Harry Hart took a deep breath first and said, "I still can't believe you really did this!"

Merlin: "..."

Why is this topic still.

He also said before that there is no need to interfere in the relationship between the two adults, but today it seems that he eloped with Phoebe and was chased back by his family.

This is the 21st century, okay?

"Yes," Merlin had no choice but to say, "Do you still want to help your natal family deal with the subsequent marriage issues, Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy?"

"Mr. Darcy" was even angrier at hearing this: "I have no intention of joking with you about Jane Austen."

Fortunately, Phoebe pushed open the door of the interrogation room: "Merlin, Uncle Harry, you can come in now!"

Merlin breathed a sigh of relief.He didn't want to quarrel with Harry, after all, he was wrong.

The interrogation room of the Ministry of Magic is completely different from that of ordinary people - there are no one-way mirrors, gloomy desk lamps, and cold tables and chairs.The entire room was very spacious, and there were many wizards standing around.

One is to prevent Cypher from trying to attack Merlin again, and the other is that it is clear that the Ministry of Magic does not want to give up information to Muggles.

Merlin and Harry stood eight meters away from her, and Cypher fiddled with his shackles without looking up: "We meet again."

Merlin: "Prison is hard, Cypher."

She sneered a few times.

Of course it was hard, the tall witch was much more haggard than the last time I met her.She raised her eyes coldly, glanced at Merlin and Harry, then turned to Phoebe.

"You've got what you want."

The witch spoke calmly.

"The information about Rooney, the purpose of my research, is there anything else I want to visit in person?"

"You still haven't told the truth," Phoebe said, "about your purpose in attacking Merlin."

"You still don't believe the results of Veritaserum?"

Of course not.

Phoebe believed in the potency of Veritaserum, but she didn't believe that Cypher had confessed everything - she said that the purpose of attacking Merlin was to get the poison|poison formula, and the purpose of getting the formula was to complete the research, the specific content of the research It's all on Runiwen's profile, so ask Phoebe Lovegood instead.

Going around in a big circle, saying it is tantamount to not saying it.

"Honestly, Cypher."

Merlin said.

In fact, if Cypher hadn't been an enemy, he would have admired the hacker.On the premise of preventing her from continuing to do evil, Merlin is willing to help her.

"As things stand now, it's meaningless to hold on to clues. There's something wizards can't help you, but Kings|man can. As long as you tell us the purpose of the formula, we'll do our best."

Cypher snorted.

She put her handcuffed hands on the edge of the chair: "I'll wait until you—"

——The door of the interrogation room opened.

The sudden knock on the door made Cypher instinctively stop talking.Everyone present turned their heads and looked at the two men in wizard robes who walked in.

"Is there a problem?"

A Ministry of Magic official spoke.

Responding to him was one of the wizards reaching out to his waist.

not good!

Merlin and Harry almost simultaneously made the same action as the wizard—drawing their guns.

His heart sank suddenly.

Except for Phoebe, none of the wizards present responded.Of course, there is no such thing as guns in their world!

"Get down!"

With an order from his predecessor, Galahad Harry Hart, he opened the black umbrella in his hand and stood in front of Merlin.

But the wizard's target was not Merlin, and the gun in his hand was aimed at Cypher.

"Cypher!" Merlin turned his head abruptly.

At a distance of eight meters, no matter how fast an agent reacts, it is impossible to outrun the bullet.Just as the wizard pulled the trigger, Phoebe, standing beside Cypher, drew her wand.

"Armor protection!"

Her spell landed at the same time as several gunshots.

The other wizards didn't react until the smell of fire/powder ignited from the air.Joins Harry Hart in preventing his enemies from murdering Cypher.

Merlin lowered his center of gravity and ran all the way to Cypher: "Are you okay?"

Cypher kicked the chair and ducked behind the table.She saw Merlin running over and dragged the man behind the cover: "I'm fine. Look at your little girlfriend!"

Needless to say, Merlin saw it too.

Phoebe fell behind the desk, leaning on Cypher's arm.

The dark red blood spread from her left collarbone at an alarming speed, soaking the girl's light-colored sweater.

"No, no no..."

At that moment, Merlin felt that his heart was about to stop.

He held Phoebe and pressed her shoulders.Phoebe groaned out of tune when Merlin's palm touched the wound: "Merlin, God, it hurts so much."

It was not known whether Merlin was calling him or praying.

With bullets and magic flying around his head at the same time, Cypher glanced outside the door: "It's Duhovic's people."

And there were more than two of them, and without thinking, she snatched Phoebe's wand.Cypher's action surprised Merlin, but when he tried to point the gun at the hacker, the tall woman had already finished chanting the spell.

Merlin only felt that the surrounding environment had changed in a blink of an eye.

The Ministry of Magic is gone, replaced by a narrow, dark and closed alley.

He staggered a few steps to stabilize his figure, and the girl in his arms whimpered in pain because of his movements.Merlin immediately aimed his gun at Cypher: "Stop!"

"If you don't want your little girlfriend to bleed to death, just shoot."

Cypher said indifferently.

"I'm the only one who can help her right now."

Merlin cursed.

"Merlin?!"

Harry Hart's voice came from his glasses: "Where have you been?!"

Merlin: "Phoebe got shot, shit. Can you do it alone, Harry?"

Harry: "What?! The Ministry of Magic has already sent reinforcements, there will be no problem."

Merlin: "The situation is urgent, I will contact you later."

As he hung up the communication, Merlin still pointed the gun at Cypher's forehead: "Hurry up."

Cypher raised his eyebrows, completely unmoved by Merlin's gun.

With Merlin's help, she made Phoebe lie flat on the ground.The witch quickly tore open Phoebe's sweater and shirt, and there was a terrible blood hole under the collarbone under the large bloodstains.

"God." Merlin was so distressed that he couldn't speak, he would rather be the one who got shot.

"Have you brought tranquilizers?" Cypher asked.

"No," Merlin said, "I'm not here on a field mission."

"Then you're in trouble, girl," Cypher said to Phoebe, "I can get the shrapnel out for you, but I don't know how to heal spells, and I know you do, and you're the one who healed this guy from torture. yes, right?"

"I, I will," Phoebe said with difficulty.

Cypher: "Open your mouth."

She stuffed the torn fabric into Phoebe's mouth and told Merlin to hold the girl firmly.

"Only you can save yourself, so you must stay awake, otherwise no Merlin will be able to snatch you back from the clutches of death, understand?"

Phoebe nodded.

"Well."

Cypher took Phoebe's wand and aimed it at her.

For a moment Merlin also clenched the pistol tightly in his hand, not knowing what spell Cypher would spit out, so he was ready to pull the trigger on her temple at any time.

Until Cypher's words came out.

"—shrapnel flying!"

Merlin had to throw away the pistol and hold Phoebe down with both hands.

No one knew where her petite body got so much strength. Phoebe was struggling with severe pain. She kicked her legs in vain, and her heels hit the stone floor with a "thud thump" sound. ".

All the cries were firmly blocked in the throat by the cloth in the mouth.

The sound of blunt instruments cutting flesh echoed in the dark alley along with her shapeless roar.

The shattered bullet fragments broke through Phoebe's flesh and blood, and automatically fell into Cypher's palm.

She immediately tore off the cloth from Phoebe's mouth: "Stop the Bleeding Curse!"

Phoebe's lips quivered, and she gasped for breath.Merlin, who was watching, couldn't help trembling: "Phoebe, stop the bleeding!"

Phoebe, who was traumatized a second time by the shrapnel, recited the spell in a barely audible voice.

The bloody wound stopped bleeding in an instant.

"Good girl," Cypher murmured, admiration flickering in her blue eyes.

Phoebe fell silent, her clear eyes lost focus.Her body was still shaking uncontrollably, and Merlin couldn't help tightening her hand.

He moved his body, only to realize that his entire back was drenched with sweat.

But before Merlin could relax, Cypher stood up.

He immediately picked up the gun on the ground and pointed it at Cypher again: "You put her wand down."

Cypher turned around and gave Phoebe a "drowsy" look, and then looked at Merlin with almost pity: "Duhovic's people want to kill me, do you think I will just walk away like this? Hold her up, the wound It just stopped the bleeding, she needs potions to recover."

The author has something to say: Ah, I still have to go through the plot!The line of Duhovic was laid out tens of thousands of words ago, it's time to open a new map! !
