Chapter 176 Leonard Endures Humiliation

Leonard's words made Pierce confused. At this moment, Pierce's mind was full of thoughts.

Mysterious field? No wizards allowed in or out! ? More than half a month?

Jiu'er bought the property within this week at most. How did Jiu'er buy that old house and build a link to the Floo Network in the old house?

Could it be...that there's something wrong with Jiu'er? Did she do all this on purpose?

Impossible, she can't do such a big deal on her own, is she a welfare family? Did the welfare family arrange the mysterious field? If it is really a welfare family, what is their purpose? Why did the young master suddenly notice that old house?

There is another possibility, what if you are not a welfare family? Are there other forces behind Jiu'er? Can the young master's comfort be guaranteed? !

Many thoughts came to Pierce's mind, and the more he thought about it, the more chills he felt down his spine.

At this time, Churchill, who was smoking a cigar, looked at Leonard: "Is the house you are talking about the same old house that you asked me to send the Military Intelligence Agency to investigate half a month ago?"

Leonard did not demonstrate and nodded to Churchill. Because wizards could not enter or exit the house, after someone reported the anomaly there, Leonard contacted the Muggle Prime Minister and asked him to use Muggle power to investigate, so about Churchill also had some impressions of that house.

Seeing Leonard nodding, Churchill put out the cigar in his hand, sat back at his desk and began to rummage through the scattered documents. As he rummaged, he said: "Leonard, what you asked me to investigate I have made arrangements, and the new recruits from the Military Intelligence Department handed over the investigation report to me almost a week ago... As you know, I have been very busy recently, and the whole of London was almost bombed into rubble by the German devils..."

After rummaging for a long time, Churchill pulled out a brown paper bag from the messy documents. Churchill opened the paper bag skillfully and glanced up and down before pushing the document to Leonard. He lit a cigar again, took a puff and said:

"To be honest, I don't know why you freaks can't get in and out of there. Anyway, the people I sent out can get in and out of that house without any obstacles...

After a simple investigation, the boys from the Military Intelligence Department concluded that there was nothing unusual in their report. Of course, because you reminded me not to let anyone enter the basement before, those boys did not enter the basement rashly. "

Leonard took the document and read it attentively: "Did they visit nearby residents?"

"It's just a routine procedure. During that time, there was nothing unusual except for a few suspicious guys wandering around... I guess those so-called suspicious guys are the same kind of people as you." Churchill sat slumped. He was smoking a cigar in his hand on a high-backed chair, and the whole room was filled with the smell of Havana cigars.

Leonard ignored Churchill's cynicism and continued to read the investigation report, especially the records of interviews with nearby residents.

Leonard was a rigorous person and could always notice the details that others ignored. After watching it for a few minutes, Leonard suddenly turned the investigation record to Churchill and asked: "There is a record here, from a homeless man nearby..." "

Tramp: Almost ten days ago, there was a man in a strange robe walking toward that house. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared. For almost half an hour, well, I guess half an hour later, the man returned the same way. , walked up to me and gave me a pound in change.

Q: Can you describe in detail what that person was wearing?

Answer: Specific attire? It's been too long and I don't have much impression. The robe is so long that it almost touches the floor... It seems to be blue or green... Oh, by the way, his clothes look very awkward, and the buttons seem to be tied at an angle. .

"Is there any problem? Aren't your clothes always weird? You look like a group of people who have traveled through the Middle Ages." Churchill disagreed.

Leonard shook his head: "It's not a wizard's robe, but a gown, a Chinese gown, a popular costume in China! I finally know why I have a strange feeling when facing that field. It's not the breath of magic, but the breath of magic. The breath of Xuanfa!

Pierce, let's ignore this matter for now. I will send someone over now. I hope that the blond king will not be crazy enough to hurt the child. All we can do is try to resolve the conflict without making any enemies. "

Pierce nodded. Pierce understood Leonard's awkward situation very well. There were rumors that Leonard was a loyal dog of the Knights of the Round Table and had surrendered the power of the Ministry of Magic to the Knights of the Round Table.

But what others don’t actually know is that Leonard has no choice but to cooperate with the Knights of the Round Table. Long before Leonard accepted the Ministry of Magic, the Knights of the Round Table had completely infiltrated the Ministry of Magic, and they were able to oust Hector. , then we can oust another uncooperative minister.

In fact, the infiltration of the Knights of the Round Table cannot be attributed to him. All the blame lies with former minister Hector Foley. Hector is a man who is eager for justice and justice. Although he was born in a welfare family, his political The goal is to free the magical world from the monopoly and control of the magical family.

I have to say that this idea is a good one. The power, wealth, and influence of magical families have affected the development of the magical world. The British Ministry of Magic exists in name only. It seems to manage wizards, but in fact it is those families who really manage wizards in this country.

Hector wanted to change this status quo. He wanted to set off a glorious revolution in the magical world. To this end, the people Hector promoted and appointed during his tenure were basically from non-aristocratic backgrounds.

However, what he didn't expect was that wizards in the entire magic world who were not from aristocratic families must have other backgrounds behind them, such as the Prisoner of God...

Because they saw through Hector's motives, the Knights of the Round Table took the lead in infiltrating the Ministry of Magic indiscriminately. Over time, the Knights of the Round Table had already controlled the Ministry of Magic, and Hector was also harmed by it and thus cut off his career.

In order to better stop the ambition of the Dark Lord Grindelwald, Leonard had to bear the humiliation and bow to the Knights of the Round Table step by step. Now Leonard found that he had no way to retreat, so a crazy idea emerged in his mind.

…

The old house of a wealthy businessman in Leicestershire.

Hearing Qin Weijie's exclamation, Tom hurriedly walked towards the basement at Emma's urging.

Emma was anxious at this time, fearing that Qin Weijie would have an accident. Although there were Tom's previous suggestions, Emma didn't believe Tom's experience because she had not taken too many risks with Qin Weijie.

On the other hand, Tom looked calm and composed, and he would not have bothered to pay attention to Qin Weijie if Emma had not urged him.

Soon, the two of them walked down to the dark basement, and Emma could not help but frown as soon as she entered the basement.

As a heavenly talisman master, Emma's sense of the environment was much stronger than that of cultivators from other systems. As soon as she entered the basement, Emma sensed a surging evil spirit.
