Chapter 954 Humans Are the Most Delicious Food
"Hey! Listen...we have to go now, you can change my son back!"
"I won't."
"You made him like this, how could you not?"
"I won't."
"Can't you say something else?"
"I really won't..."
Old Victor suddenly found that communicating with a spider much bigger than himself was not as difficult as imagined. But even so, he still failed to get the result he wanted.
"Should we only let those wizards come?"
The old man muttered angrily, but soon shook his head again.
"No, dealing with that group of wizards, I have never encountered any good things until now! I can't have any extra contact with them..."
Maybe it was true as he said, but maybe it was because of his obsession with his wife for so many years that he developed a great aversion to the wizarding community.
Thinking that the woman he once loved might have died quietly in a corner that he didn't know, his chest seemed to be blocked by something, which made him feel out of breath.
Now, he just wants to leave this so-called "magic world" that makes him uncomfortable as soon as possible, and return home to spend the rest of his life silently.
To be honest, if he was the only one now, he would probably have tried to escape from this ghost place long ago.
However the reality is,
He and his only son in this life were turned into hard statues, and he couldn't even feel his breathing and heartbeat at all.
If the child named "Harry" hadn't said that he was still alive, old Victor would have thought that his poor son had returned to heaven!
"It's all Dad's fault... Dad shouldn't have let you break into this dangerous world just on a whim. Forget it, the last time... When they let you recover, we will go home Go, and never have anything to do with these wizards again!"
It is obviously not easy for this stubborn old man to say these words. It seems that this time, from the bottom of his heart, he wants to completely cut off the magic bond formed by his wife.
"Wait here, Dad will be back in a while."
After leaving such a sentence at the "statue" of his son, old Victor turned around neatly, but before he could take the first step, he looked at the spiders all over the room with a slightly stagnant expression.
After being stunned for a few seconds, he said in a low voice:
"Spider... can I go out for a while?"
"certainly."
The task of Acromantus Little Five is actually just to guard the big man who is a danger to St. Mungo's people. In fact, it wouldn't even bother little Victor if he wanted to go—well, if he could.
Seeing that he had obtained the consent of the "leader" of the spider, the old Victor raised his foot with a melancholy expression, and tentatively fell forward slowly.
He had seen Sirius leave before, but even if he knew that those little things would dodge by themselves, it was still difficult for him to get off when there were spiders under his feet.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu, who was standing silently by the side, even raised its long legs to "kindly" push him, but it surprised him instead.
"Is this really a spider..."
In the past, when my wife was still there, I actually secretly talked about some things in the wizarding world. It's just that for some reason, there is basically no place to explain it clearly.
And it was during that period that Old Victor had a rough impression of the magic world.
According to his wife's rough description, he thought that the magic world was actually a very beautiful place. Although he didn't know what kind of people and things there were, he could always feel the warmth from his wife's beautiful smile.
At that time, a spider of this size and with such a terrifying look was unimaginable.
But in the past few days, after experiencing a period full of crises everywhere, the existence of such a big spider seems to be nothing to be surprised about.
Oh, at most, "being able to speak human language" is really scary.
However, it is precisely because he personally felt the danger and darkness of the magic world that now old Victor suddenly finds it difficult to accept the "friendly" side of this big spider.
Could it be that in this magical world, only animals are truly kind?
The old man was pushed forward by Xiao Wu, the giant eight-eyed spider, and then stopped in a daze. After a while, he turned back abruptly and asked:
"Hey! Spider, do you...do you think humans are your friends?"
Hearing this, Xiao Wu tapped his mouthparts twice as if he was thinking, then paused and said:
"Human beings are the tastiest food."
"Uh... Excuse me."
Old Victor turned his head and walked towards the door, the thought in his heart of wanting to take his son out of this ghostly place suddenly became more and more determined.
"...But Maca is not allowed to eat human flesh, so...may be the most delicious?"
After he walked out of the door, Xiao Wu rubbed his front legs and added doubtfully.
...
At the same time, in the front hall.
"...It was probably like this at the time. The scene was chaotic, and I don't know more about it. In short, it was the man named Victor who made the first move—he actually smashed people to the ceiling! It was terrible. I have never I have never seen such a ferocious black wizard!"
"'Never seen'?"
"Oh...well! Only two or three times at most...no, just one or two! Seriously, that's brutal enough, isn't it?"
Regarding this old witch who was attracted by ten Galleons, Sirius felt that he could only trust her with 80% at best, because the remaining 20% seemed unreliable no matter what.
But Hermione didn't care about some exaggerated words in those words. Seeing that the other party seemed to have finished speaking, she asked:
"So it was a wounded patient with a bandaged head that was thrown to the ceiling and then fell unconscious?"
"Yes, that must be true!"
As the old witch spoke, she approached her seriously and said in a low voice:
"Actually! The man in the bandage is also suspicious. Maybe everyone hasn't noticed it, but I found something wrong with him - he has been lying on the ground for the past few days, hardly moving."
"I think, the one you mentioned who turned into a big monster is probably because he didn't run away!"
After Hermione heard it, she didn't say much, she just nodded slightly.
"If what you said is correct, ten Galleons will be yours."
You only need to say a few words to get ten Galleons. Although this is not a lot, it is also a fortune that can be obtained without any effort.
Seeing Hermione nodding, the old witch also seemed very happy, and suddenly stretched out her hand.
However, Sirius next to her blocked her hand back.
"After all these words have been verified - if there is no problem, it will be yours sooner or later; but if you try to cheat Jin Gallon by talking nonsense, I will take you to Azkaban to visit in advance!"
"Oh, how dare I! Guarantee that everything is true!"
As the old witch spoke, she quickly stepped back a few steps, her face full of flattering smiles.
Looking at the other party's old face that made people feel disgusted, Sirius couldn't help but muttered:
"It's no wonder that Maca wants to gather all those people together to prevent them from coming out casually. I don't believe that this kind of person is a black wizard, but it is definitely not a good thing. Once something happens, this group of people will definitely be The first guys to betray us."
Leaving aside the fact that Sirius deeply agreed with Maca's decision, Hermione had already lowered her head and began to look through the name book that Ron had brought out again.
Not long after, Hermione, who had flipped through it twice in a row, raised her head again, and nodded to her companions around her.
"According to the lady, the patient had bandages all over his head," she said, "but there is no record of patients with similar injuries."
Hermione's meaning has been expressed very clearly, that is to say, there is indeed something wrong with the man in the bandage. If it is said that it is the big man in the room, the possibility is very high.
"So, how did he get in here?" Ron seemed a little puzzled, "Except for today, Maca would go to that temporary ward at least once a day—wanting to be under Maca's nose." It's much harder to sneak in than to sneak into the Ministry of Magic!"
Hermione couldn't help but nodded when she saw that Ron was finally willing to use his brain to think about business.
"This is indeed a big question," she thought for a while, but then said, "But the question is more than that - what I want to know most now is, who is this person?"
Although the spiders raised by Maca were not generally powerful, they were unlikely to easily petrify Haierbo, so that person must not be Haierbo himself.
Therefore, if we can find out the identity of the other party as soon as possible, we may be able to find some precious clues.
"Let's go over and have a look! Now that we have some clues, maybe we can see something from the petrified big man."
Saying so, Hermione was about to turn around and go to the side door, but unexpectedly there was a figure walking in from outside before her.
"That... Hey! Let my son return to his original appearance!"
"What?" Sirius frowned immediately, "Harry said he would help you just now, but you didn't even agree to let us get closer, and now you're here—"
"Sirius!"
Harry hastily tugged on his coat to prevent him from getting into a tantrum and quarreling with old Victor if he didn't like it.
You know, now is not the time to argue.
"Mr. Victor, I'm sorry...we can't do that yet." Ginny who was not far away said, "But please rest assured, we will definitely make your son recover."
It's a pity that no matter how nice Ginny is, her own son has turned into a "statue" after all, and it's not something that can be persuaded with polite words.
