Chapter 2439 Informants and Clues
"... Missing No-Maj children? Well... there are indeed. But you know, when are there fewer homeless people on the streets of New York? There are a few missing every month—maybe you last weekend It’s a common occurrence to chat with someone and never see him again after a few days. As for children, no one will pay attention, will they?”
In a corner of the extremely noisy bar, a tall man with several scars on his face was reclining on a dirty leather sofa, talking drunkenly.
To be honest, just by looking at the appearance, you really can't tell the exact age of this man, look at the strong and burly physique, with knotted muscles all over his body. He held a wine bottle in his hand, and every time he raised his neck to drink, he could see the muscles rolling under the tight skin, but judging from the words of the Auror vice-captain, John should be very old up.
This is a werewolf, and a very powerful werewolf, it should be right.
"Hey! Old William, of course I know what you said, but if I didn't have to check it out, I wouldn't have to come to such a noisy place to look for you, would I? Is there any valuable news? This hands-and-handed old guy should give me an accurate word!"
The vice-captain's posture seemed a bit domineering, while waving his hands recklessly, he roared loudly amidst the deafening music. At the end, he even punched the burly man on the chest with a "boom", it seems that he used quite a lot of strength.
John, who was sitting on the side, watched this scene with his own eyes. Although he looked calm on the surface, he seemed to be swaying his body in harmony with the dynamic music on the stereo. But to be honest, he was somewhat uncertain.
Although John in that era happened to be the most daring and presumptuous time in his life, but on weekdays, he just liked to run around in parties of various young men and women, at most he would fight with wizards who were as deviant as he was. Get together and do some weird things.
How had he ever come into such close contact with an absolutely dangerous creature like a werewolf?
And just as John was watching the unceremonious Auror vice-captain hammering the strong man aggressively, suddenly, the man who was still drunk just now had his eyes fixed, and he grabbed him Touched the vice-captain's wrist. The next moment, an extremely dangerous aura emanated from the other party.
"Croger, are you trying to provoke trouble?"
However, at the moment when John's heart felt cold, he saw that the deputy captain just shook his hand vigorously. After finding out that he couldn't get rid of the opponent's grasping hand, he didn't care, he just stared at the opponent fiercely and said loudly:
"Last time, it was those damn fang-tooth ghosts who filled the indicators. What's the matter? Old William, are you going to take the initiative to take over those empty cells this time?"
"Tsk."
As soon as the vice-captain said this, the other party's expression darkened immediately, and after looking at each other for a while, he finally let go of the former with a rather unlucky hand. Then, John saw that old William leaned back on the sofa behind him again, and the fierce look on his face receded like a tide.
"What did you say you wanted to know just now?" He raised his neck and took a sip of the wine, and then returned to his previous drunken appearance, "Oh, have there been any missing children among the homeless recently?"
"To be more precise, it should be abducted or kidnapped—at least the possibility is not small!"
I casually added a sentence.
"Well," Old William thought for a while, and then said, "Don't talk about kidnapping and kidnapping—who cares about this kind of thing? Just talk about disappearances, there must be some... Oh, I remembered, the Queens District It seems that there was an old lady who suddenly yelled, saying that her daughter was missing... Well, there seems to be a few fewer people in the subway station in Brooklyn recently. There are probably a few young children inside. You can Find time to go around."
"Really?" Vice-captain Croger nodded when he heard the words, and suddenly seemed to remember something, turned his head and glanced at John without a trace, "By the way, have you seen the newcomer recently? ?The kind of little bum who comes out alone—you know, that's definitely easier to get at."
"Are you here alone?" Old William frowned when he heard that, "It's not very common - a child will not live long without an adult to take care of him, let alone an outsider. But hearing what your kid said, it's... ..."
He seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly pondered.
"What is it? Do you have any clues?" The deputy captain raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Huh?" Old William raised his eyelids and said, "Oh, it's the subway station in Brooklyn that I just mentioned. Some time ago, it seemed that someone had indeed seen a child in the middle of the night, dragging The luggage was wandering around. I didn’t appear in that area soon afterwards, and I don’t know if it’s a wanderer from outside... Huh, maybe it’s just a kid who wanted to run away from home on a whim!”
The voice fell slightly, and the deputy captain and John secretly glanced at each other—whether it was Brooks or Tia, in short, it really sounded like the situation of those two little guys who skipped classes as soon as school started.
After that, the vice-captain chatted casually with the old William for a few more words, and took a rough look at the relevant information that the other party knew. Immediately, everyone got up, and rejoined with several other Auror team members who had split up to inquire about the news, and squeezed out of the bar from various messy crowds.
With the extremely ear-piercing music finally separated by the bar door, the vice-captain Kroger plucked his ears vigorously, then shook his head and said:
"It's noisy."
"Vice-captain, since that guy's subordinates seem to have seen Tia or Brooks—no matter which one it is, why don't they show the photo and ask him to find someone to identify it?"
As soon as he came out, the research institute companion who came with John finally couldn't help asking.
But Kroger waved his hand immediately when he heard the words.
"Although Old William can be regarded as my informant, but this old thing is not completely reliable. Some things, it is best not to let him know, this case still depends on us to investigate."
After finishing speaking, he pressed the handle of the wand under the coat, and led the others to the dark alley beside the bar, and said as he walked:
"Let's go! In short, just follow what he said just now, and go to the subway station in Brooklyn first! There are indeed a lot of homeless people there. , Go ask and see what you can always gain.”
