"It's snowing heavily," Emma murmured while lying on the window.

Since she was locked up, even going out to feel the snowflakes has become a luxury.She sighed, she didn't know what Voldemort's plan was, if this continued, she would become a Stockholm.

But what can she do?Although she could feel her magical powers returning, she was nowhere near breaking Voldemort's spell and escaping here.

"Put your hands up, miss." A hoarse voice suddenly sounded from behind her, and at the same time, she felt a hard, pointy thing (magic wand?) against her back.

The hero does not suffer from the immediate disadvantages, Emma immediately raised her hands above her head.

"Now, turn around slowly, don't try to do anything in front of us"

Emma turned around obediently.

Pointing at her with a magic wand was a man with a fierce face, about 1.8 meters tall, with tangled muscles all over his body, and he looked like a good hand in robbery.

"Brother, you see that we have no grievances in the past, and I don't know you in the near future. Can we sit down and talk about anything?" Emma tried to win a more comfortable living environment for herself.

"you shut up!"

The muscular man glared at Emma, ​​and Emma immediately shut up knowingly.But the two of them didn't seem to be the only ones in the room.

"Garth, look what I found~" A man rushed out of the kitchen holding a jar, "This is your favorite British black tea~"

"Shut up, too!" The man named "Gass" snatched the jar from him.

The man who ran out of the kitchen was only a little shorter than him, but much thinner.Emma didn't know what skills this frail man had that allowed this strong man to lead him into a house and rob him.

Also, fights in the wizarding world don't all depend on body size. Neither Dumbledore nor Voldemort is strong, but they represent the highest fighting level in the British wizarding world.

"Oliver, how many times have I told you, don't take other people's things casually! Put them back for me!" Garth roared.

"No, don't put it back!" Emma saw an opportunity, "If you want to drink, I can make you a cup." No matter what they are here for, it is always right to brush up their favorability first.

"Then I will trouble you"

Oliver snatched the jar and handed it to Emma, ​​but he suffered a critical blow from Garth.

"How dare you ask her to make tea! What if she poisons us!"

It seems that Garth's vigilance is high.

"Then you can make your own, the hot water is in the kitchen"

Emma pointed to the kitchen, and Oliver ran in immediately.

"Are you alone here?"

Gus probably sensed that she had no magic power, so he put down his wand.

"That's right, and I believe you have already searched all the rooms." Emma shrugged, "Then we might as well sit down and talk. Anyway, your target is not me, and I will not pose a threat to you."

"What are you..." Garth frowned.

"Not only that, you should be brothers, right? By the way, are you the same parents?" Emma sat down on her own, joking, she can hold Voldemort, is she afraid that the two will not intend to hurt her robbers?

"half father"

Garth sat down after answering, but he was still a safe distance away from her.

"No wonder, but I learned all my reasoning from a friend. Please forgive me if I am wrong. But today you are neither here to kidnap me nor to steal anything, so I would like to take the liberty to ask you, What the hell are you here for?"

"The tea is ready~" Oliver walked over with a tea tray in his face, "This guy is living a good life!"

Garth snorted disdainfully, then picked up his cup.Emma also picked up her own cup and took a sip.Not to mention, Oliver is really good at making tea.

Everyone just drank tea quietly for a few minutes, and then Garth suddenly spoke.

"My last name is Anderson"

"Huh? Garth Anderson?" Emma thought about it carefully, the name didn't sound familiar at all. . .

"It's Gusdes Anderson." Oliver quickly corrected her.

"..."

Even with the full name, she has never heard of it! ! !

The scene was once very embarrassing.

In the end it was Garth himself who stood up.

"Do you know the 'Anderson tragedy' 20 years ago?"

"Oh! You know, you were chased and killed by the creditor because of debts? What's the name of the murderer...York, York?" This case is still relatively well-known in the magic world, because after all There are really not many people who wiped out other people's families just because they owed money.

"York Clyde"

"Yes, yes, it was him! But didn't he die in Azkaban later?" Moreover, this incident later aroused extensive discussions about the safety of prisoners in Azkaban.

"Yes, it's true that he died, but he wasn't the murderer." There was deep disgust in Gus's eyes.

"It doesn't make sense." Emma remembered that this case had more convincing evidence than that of Sirius, and it was basically all witnesses and material evidence, and the evidence was as solid as a mountain.

"You've only seen the surface. In fact, my father has no debts at all! York is just a scapegoat, he's a Death Eater!"

"Wow~ You're implying..." Emma seemed to understand what Garth meant.

"That's right, it was him! He ordered everything! My father just refused to join the Death Eaters, and he just killed him! If I don't kill him for a day, I will be ashamed of my father!" Garth said When he got angry, he grabbed the teacup on the table and fell to the ground.

The fragments of the teacup were scattered on the ground, and Emma quickly moved to the opposite direction of Garth.It's never a good idea to approach a mentally unstable strong man.

"Garth!" Oliver cleared the ground with a new one, "Look, you scared this lady."

"I, I'm okay..." Emma said weakly.

"Okay, let's talk about business." Gus looked at her seriously, "When will he come back?"

"Who?"

"You know who it is, don't play dumb"

"Uh, okay. The truth is, I don't know either." Emma spread her hands, expressing that she was also helpless.

"Don't play stupid!"

Garth tried to point his wand at her but was stopped by Oliver.

"She's telling the truth. We've been guarding this person for a few days and haven't seen him? And according to outside rumors, she's just his..." Although Oliver realized his slip of the tongue, he stopped immediately.But Emma could vaguely guess what he was going to say next based on the context.

"So, now it seems that this lady is also ignorant, why not us..." Oliver raised his wand and pointed it at her forehead.

He's going to be insane! ! !Emma shrank back instinctively.

However, 1 minute passed and she felt nothing.

Could it be that this is a painless upgraded version of Constipation?Well, she should let Voldemort learn this version.

"What's the matter Oliver?"

"It's not right" Oliver frowned, "I can't see her memory"

"You used Occlumency!?" Garth growled again.

"Hey! I don't have magic power at all, okay! How do I know why you can't read my brain! Maybe you need to go back to Hogwarts to study hard!"

"He cast a protective spell on you to prevent others from stealing your memories." Oliver withdrew his wand, then turned to Garth, "What now?"

"Wait for him to come back or..."

"Kidnapping this lady, sorry, what's your name?"

"Emma, ​​my name is Emma" Emma was very excited about this, if they planned to kidnap her, it meant that she finally had a chance to get out of here.Besides, it was Voldemort who had a grudge against them. If she went with them, her personal safety should be guaranteed.

"But what is he going to pay for her? I don't think he cares about her at all, he doesn't care about anyone. Let's just go." Gus got up from the sofa and buttoned his coat again.

"Wait, don't go! Go and take me with you!" Emma held Oliver's hand, "I am also a victim! I have been imprisoned for almost a month"

"One month?"

"That's right! Just say what kind of beast would imprison a young girl like me!" Emma covered her face with her hands, and at the same time secretly observed their expressions through her fingers.Sure enough, after hearing the word "imprisonment", the expressions of Garth and Oliver were all wrong.

"You mean he treats you..." Garth showed an expression of disbelief.

"That's right." Emma showed the scar left by the wrestling on her wrist, "I have tried to kill myself, and I didn't have the hope of continuing to live until I met you today."

I'm sorry Voldemort, for the sake of freedom, this blame can only be let you carry it!

Seeing that the expressions of the two people were a little moved, Emma decided to strike while the iron was hot.

"As long as you rescue me, I will definitely reward you with a lot of money. Although I am penniless now, I can leave you a token."

Seeing Emma running up to the second floor in a hurry, the two quickly followed her.

Emma rummaged through the bedroom and finally found the necklace that Voldemort had given her.It's ridiculous to say that her only valuable token was not bought by herself.

"Here, as long as you rescue me, this will be yours."

She handed them the necklace.

"But we're not short of money." Oliver pushed her hand back, "We can't risk you out"

"anyone there?"

The familiar voice downstairs made Emma's heart tighten, and she quickly closed the bedroom door.

"What's wrong? Is he back?" Gus's expression was faintly excited.

"Don't, don't go down." Emma reached out and stopped him.

"What? Do you think we can't beat him? There's only one of him!" Although Gass lowered his voice, judging from his tone, he was still eager to move.

"In order to prevent me from recovering my magic power and running out, he specially set up a magic circle to suppress the magic power in this house. This may also be the reason why your instigmatism just now couldn't be used." Emma scratched her head.

"Then why didn't you say it earlier!" Oliver panicked.

"I forgot just now... In short, you must not fight him. If it doesn't work, you can set up an ambush in the grass outside. Now you should run quickly."

"Why are you helping us?" Garth looked at her with distrust still in his eyes.

"Have you forgotten that I am also a victim? There is no time to explain, you go away!"

"Bang bang bang----"

The sudden knock on the door stunned all three of them.

"Emma, ​​are you there?"

It was Voldemort.

"I am I am"

Emma pushed Oliver into the closet without thinking, and when she recovered, Garth was gone.

"Are you ok?"

Voldemort opened the door just in time to see Emma standing in the doorway smiling at her.

"I'm very good"

she says.
