Chapter 136 Watching
In the alley deep in Diagon Alley, Jiu'er inspected the body of Count Diploge. Pierce stood beside Jiu'er, carefully observing the entire alley, looking for any clues that might have been missed.
The Ministry of Magic also dispatched six Aurors, but at this time, none of the six Aurors dared to say anything.
It's a coincidence that these six Aurors used to be Pierce's subordinates. Now that Pierce has changed his job, the Auror team all know what the actual situation is. Seeing that their former bosses have come to investigate the case, the six Aurors At this time, he was a little helpless.
When Pierce saw the six Aurors standing aside stupidly, he subconsciously ordered:
"Cubo, you take three people to check the magic fluctuations half a mile away, and evacuate the crowd by the way. Weiss, you and Rupert use the 'tracing sand' to try to recreate the discovery of the crime.
Although the murderer should have dealt with the traces based on the situation at the scene, he still has to try it with the 'tracing sand'. After all, you will have to write it down in the report when you go back. The identity of the person who died this time is special, so don't take it lightly! "
"Yes, Captain... cough!" The young Auror named Cooper subconsciously saluted Pierce, but when he realized that Pierce had already left the Ministry of Magic, he coughed twice in embarrassment.
Jiu'er saw this and said coldly: "You are better at investigating cases. I have four more people here, and I will leave them to your command."
Pierce nodded in response. He was also aware of Jiu'er's cold personality. He knew that Jiu'er was not dissatisfied with him commanding the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, and that Jiu'er was just talking about the matter.
"Okay, just leave it to me! The Ministry of Magic should send the person in charge here later. I will make some simple arrangements for the time being. After the person in charge comes later, I will not interfere in the Ministry of Magic's investigation."
After listening to Pierce's words, Jiu'er nodded silently, then leaned against the wall and ignored everything else.
The retainers of the Welfare family and the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic were conducting the investigation in an orderly manner. Five minutes later, Jiu'er suddenly raised her head and looked at the entrance of the alley.
At this time, at the entrance of the alley, Qin Weijie, Tom and Emma were looking with curious faces.
Jiu'er walked straight out of the alley and came to Qin Weijie: "Master, why are you here?"
"Oh, Emma will go to Hogwarts as an exchange student next semester. I'm here to help her purchase the items needed for admission. I just went to Gulu Pet Store and bought a little guy." Qin Weijie said, picking up the back of the ferret's neck. Jiu'er waved in front of her:
"What happened? The smell of blood is so strong."
"A magic diplomat died. Because it happened in Diagon Alley, I brought people to have a look. Pierce is better at investigating cases, so I let him direct the investigation." It was rare for Jiu'er to say so many words: " Master, the scene in the alley is too bloody. You should go back first. I will send someone to take you back to the London Manor. Because a vicious incident has occurred, the Floo network should be checked tonight. It is recommended that you go back to London tonight. Stay at the manor for one night, and I will arrange for someone to take you back to St. Andrews University tomorrow.”
"Okay, actually I want to join in the fun..." Qin Weijie said, standing on tiptoes and sticking his head out to look into the alley, but was blocked by Jiu'er, but Qin Weijie could only listen to Jiu'er's first suggestion. Back to the Foley family estate in London.
Qin Weijie was about to turn around and leave when a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him: "Qin Weijie, why are you here?"
Qin Weijie turned around and saw a big man over two meters tall striding toward the alley. Upon closer inspection, he turned out to be Dai, the deputy director of the Magic Strategic Deployment Department and the deputy head of the Punishment Knights of the Knights of the Round Table. Smond Kavis.
Qin Weijie had a chance encounter with Desmond last semester. At that time, Desmond was ordered to go to Hogwarts to investigate Professor Dumbledore and asked Qin Weijie what happened in the burial ground.
It was also at that time that Qin Weijie discovered that the deputy captain had some connection with him.
Desmond was a martial arts fanatic. Ten years ago, he went to China to study at Gulin Temple and learn ancient Chinese martial arts. At that time, Qin Weijie didn't know his name, so he just followed his senior brothers and called him Silly Big Man.
"Eh? Stupid big guy!?"
Hearing Qin Weijie call him a stupid big man, Desmond couldn't help but have three black lines falling on his head: "You brat, we are all familiar with each other, you should give me some face! Anyway, I am also the deputy leader, You are also considered a member of the Knights of the Round Table, and I am also your leader."
Qin Weijie shrugged and didn't care. Desmond knew that this little guy Qin Weijie was used to behaving recklessly, so he didn't bother to talk to Qin Weijie. He just looked at Qin Weijie with a serious face and asked, "Tell me, why are you here? "
Qin Weijie repeated what he had just said to Jiu'er, but Desmond still stared at Qin Weijie with a serious face: "Where else did you go on the way to Gulu Pet Shop?"
Seeing Desmond questioning Qin Weijie like this, Jiu'er slowly stepped forward. Although her expression could not be seen clearly through her mask, her cold voice could clearly hear her dissatisfaction with Desmond: "Mr. Deputy Leader, Are you doubting the young master? Please watch your words!"
Desmond glanced at Jiu'er, then looked at Qin Weijie and said solemnly: "I just came from the Duel Club, and I heard that you had a conflict with the deceased in the club. I have reason to suspect that you are involved in this matter! "
Desmond seemed to be making a simple statement, but in fact, this guy had already tested Qin Weijie verbally.
"A conflict with the deceased?" Qin Weijie got up and looked at Desmond with a confused look on his face: "You mean the deceased is the vampire!? Damn, this is too small! And, let's get it clear. , I didn’t have a conflict with him, it was this guy who acted violently, I was just acting in self-defense.”
As he said this, Qin Weijie secretly cursed that Desmond was also an old silver coin. This simple test just now directly revealed that Qin Weijie had a conflict with Diploge.
From Qin Weijie's perspective, he shouldn't know who the deceased was, so if Qin Weijie directly defended himself, he would have fallen into Desmond's trap.
Qin Weijie's response can be considered impeccable. He stated that he did not know who the deceased was and then defended himself, which was more convincing.
Desmond snorted coldly: "Hmph! Since you had a conflict with the deceased not long ago, this matter still needs to be investigated. You can stay here for now. Don't worry, you are a member of the Knights of the Round Table. As long as you are clean You can leave at any time, and your two friends will also be questioned later."
Desmond said no more and walked towards the alley.
Qin Weijie looked at Jiu'er and shrugged: "I can't help it. It seems that this matter depends on me. I'll go and have a look. Even though it's not me who did it, it's quite a relief to kill the vampire." "
