Chapter 1059 Fish in the Net
During the wedding earlier, Lupine had gone to Maca to have a few words. At that time, what he wanted to convey to Maca was actually mainly one thing:
"At ten o'clock tonight, there will be a secret meeting."
This is a member of the Order of the Phoenix... To be precise, it is an important piece of information intercepted by several wizards headed by Sirius after long-term surveillance in shifts.
And this information came from Ted, the owner of the Hanged Man Tavern.
According to Lupine, the tavern owner had been living a quiet, or now "careful" life after Maca had been a guest.
Get up in the morning and open for business, take a break after lunch in the afternoon, and then continue to open for guests until two or three in the morning at night.
There is no doubt that this is the normal work and rest time of a tavern owner, and there is no problem.
However, Maca discovered some problems after going there once before, so he never gave up letting people keep an eye on that tavern from the beginning to the end.
Sure enough, in the morning of Fred and George's wedding today, the boss Ted finally made a suspicious move.
Before noon that day, Sirius suddenly discovered that he had secretly sent a batch of unnamed letters to the black market while he was out shopping.
And one of the letters was sent to the witch Higgs, the master of the potion workshop they knew.
In order not to overwhelm others, Sirius intercepted only one of those secretly sent letters.
Because so far, among the series of suspicious persons monitored by the Order of the Phoenix, only Ms. Higgs has been confirmed to have no direct contact with other surveillance objects.
Of course, that's enough, isn't it?
"The specific location is underground in a cemetery in the outskirts of London."
At the wedding, Lupine said this at the end of his whispered words.
...
London tonight is as bustling and noisy as usual.
Unlike Hogwarts, there were still several light rains in London during the day. The misty rain and fog wetted the not-so-dry streets, and now that the rain has stopped, it is still wet everywhere at a glance.
It's still past eight o'clock at the moment, which is actually much earlier than the ten o'clock written in the intercepted secret letter. Maca, Sirius and the others were dressed in Muggle costumes, and they walked on the slightly wet and sticky road, stepping forward like the Muggles on the street.
"Maka, why didn't you stay at the Burrow for a while, so it wouldn't be too late to come out after dinner?" Lupine asked casually beside him.
"Yeah!" Sirius rubbed his stomach, "Dancing for a while, I'm a little hungry..."
But Maca shook his head and said:
"It's better to be on the safe side. It's better to be early than to be late—of course, if you're really hungry, go to the Muggle shop to buy something to eat! But then again, why didn't you just go to the tent and get something to take out to eat?" ? Isn't Mr. Weasley ready?"
"Didn't I think you were going directly to that cemetery!" Sirius said angrily, "In case of any situation, you can't hold a wand in one hand and a piece of chicken bacon pie in the other, right?"
Before Maca had time to complain,
Tonks on the side couldn't help but said:
"Why chicken and bacon pie?"
"Because I saw it on the table in the tent!" Sirius pouted, then turned around and hurried to a taco shop by the side of the road.
"Anyone else want to eat?"
Maca looked at the others and saw that Mundungus was also dragging a few people towards the store, so he smiled lightly and shrugged.
"Hope they don't regret it tonight!"
"Regret?" Tonks couldn't help but scratched her purple hair and said strangely after hearing this, "Why?"
Beside her, Lupine then explained:
"Actually, no matter what happens at the end of this gathering, we should still have time to get back to the Weasleys for dinner. Well, I mean, except Maca... because if it's just normal wizards, it's obviously not going to do us any favors." threatening; and if something worse came along, we probably wouldn't have to come near it at all."
As Lupine said, although it is unclear what the purpose of this secret gathering is, for the Order of the Phoenix, there are only two possibilities of "whether Haierpo will show up".
If there is no sign of Haierbo coming forward, then those of them who followed Maca will be responsible for arresting the black wizard, and Maca is just an insurance;
But if Hai Erbo appeared at the rally, they should be responsible for a series of tasks of evacuating the crowd and sending out danger signals.
"So, the action plan at that time is actually not complicated." Maca said, "After they are full, you can just find a place that won't attract the attention of Muggles and wait, and then wait for me to activate the Portkey! "
"Mr. McLean ... what about me?"
This time, it was the wizard in windbreaker who had hardly spoken at today's wedding.
When Maca heard her speak, she couldn't help but spread her hands and said:
"It's the same sentence—if you want to follow me, I have no problem."
After a while, Maca and the wizard in the windbreaker separated from the others, took a Muggle car and drove towards the northern suburbs of London.
As they left the central area of the city, the lights gradually decreased, and the surroundings gradually became darker. But after moving on for a while, the bright moonlight tonight made the vision much clearer without the dazzling neon lights.
Of course, it may also be because there are no tall buildings around that block the line of sight too much, and the field of vision gradually widens!
It has to be said that Muggle cars are quite convenient, especially if you don't want to rely on magic to travel.
It didn't take long for the two of them to see through the car window a road sign marked "West Highgate Cemetery" at the fork in front of them.
Upon seeing this, Maca immediately took out a few pounds from his pocket, and handed them to the "enthusiastic" Muggle driver sitting in the driver's seat.
"Oh! Are you really going to get off here? There's nothing here!"
After the driver took the money, he asked a question rather strangely. After all, he followed Maca's instructions all the way, and he was a little worried that he might be robbed on the way.
However, the charm of the British pound is obviously infinite. Maca just added two more money, and he sent the two of them to the place tremblingly.
"It's okay, you don't have to worry about these things," Maca said with a smile, "Collect the money, and then go home and have a good sleep!"
After finishing speaking, he opened the car door and got out of the car with the windbreaker wizard, and then stood on the side of the dark and deserted road and watched the car buzzing away along the road when it came.
He could clearly see that the driver finally took a special look at the road sign of the cemetery in front of him, and then shivered uncontrollably.
"Hope he doesn't have nightmares tonight!"
Before the words were finished, Maca led the wizard in the windbreaker to the fork in the road, then turned a corner, and walked towards the cemetery according to the road signs.
Highgate Cemetery is a Muggle cemetery built in the last century. It has a beautiful environment and abundant greenery. If you look at it during the day, you can even feel a quiet vitality from it.
However, it is night now.
Although the moonlight was unexpectedly clear tonight, the cemetery at night would inevitably make people feel a little gloomy... In particular, two Muggle girls claimed to have been attacked by vampires here before.
Hmm, maybe the driver just happened to recall this old story?
Maca and the windbreaker wizard did not go directly into the cemetery, but chose to enter the forest beside them, and slowly suppressed their own magic fluctuations.
"It's less than an hour from the time written in that letter... Since there is no one, let's wait for 'them' here!"
Maca leaned against the trunk of a tree, and didn't look around, but took all the surrounding situations into his heart by virtue of his sense of magic.
Opposite him, the windbreaker wizard standing still in the shadows obviously did the same thing.
...
However, when Maca had already ambushed near the cemetery, Ted, the tavern owner, hadn't even gone out yet.
But he was really excited today.
He was looking forward to seeing how many people passed the selection before long. Because those people will become his first direct believers after this.
Yes, although all believers must first respect Haierbo, and secondly, they will obey wizards like him who were personally selected by Mr. Haierbo as students.
But that is the extremely powerful Mr. Hai Erbo after all! That is a famous dark wizard who has survived since ancient times. He is so much stronger than any Dark Lord!
It's not shameful to be a student under such a strong man, is it?
"Oh……"
Standing in the kitchen thinking about this, he suddenly couldn't help but tremble all over his body—this feeling of "having subordinates in front and backers in back" is really wonderful!
"Of course, there is also the ancient black magic that will definitely be available soon!"
Ted stared at his palm, watching it slowly clenched tightly, as if a force had condensed into his hand at this moment.
Even if it was just such a fantasy, it still made him intoxicated by it.
After a while, he regained his composure from his anticipation of the future, and turned his head to glance at the wall clock on the wall. Immediately afterwards, after confirming that there was still a lot of time left, he moved his gaze to the picture frame in front of him.
The old woman was now on another canvas outside, so he could directly see the closed wooden door in the portrait.
"After tonight's rally is over, come and contact the teacher! Hmph, I believe he will be surprised by the number of believers I have developed!"
