Chapter 924 Amosta's Arrogance
When Amelia heard this, the vague sourness in her heart immediately disappeared. She suddenly pointed her sharp gaze at the door, and upon looking at it, her delicate eyebrows immediately shrank toward the center of her eyebrows.
The person who walked into the coffee shop was a lean middle-aged man wearing a weird black jacket with an unorthodox lip stud under his lip. Amelia believed that her vision was not wrong. This man seemed to have the same temperament as this coffee shop. The misfit is a No-Maj with no magical powers.
She looked at Amosta in confusion, and Amosta sat down calmly, waiting for the inviter to arrive.
The waiter in the coffee shop was also a little surprised by the guest's dress and aesthetics, but when he heard the guest say that he had made a reservation and asked for the table number, he could only suppress the disdain and dissatisfaction in his heart and politely served him. The guest pointed out the table where Amosta and Amelia were sitting, but did not personally guide him.
The No-Maj man dressed in hip-hop didn't pay attention to the strange looks cast at him by the guests in the cafe. He looked around warily, and then looked in the direction pointed out to him by the waiter.
However, his line of sight was blocked by the huge sailboat model, and he could not see the situation behind it.
After weighing the situation, the No-Maj man pursed his lips and walked quickly towards this side.
He stopped twenty feet away from Amosta. When he saw that world-famous face, the No-Maj man's eyes suddenly condensed, but he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Instead, when he noticed When there was a young lady sitting opposite Amosta, his expression immediately became very ugly.
When the No-Maj man was sizing up Amosta and Amelia, they were also sizing him up.
There was obvious hostility in Amelia's eyes. For a suspect who may be involved in the case of missing magical animals, according to her wishes, the right thing to do is to immediately arrest him and send him back to Congress for interrogation.
As for Amosta, he looked at the completely unfamiliar Muggle man who was standing and sizing him up. His penetrating gaze penetrated the man's eyes. Then, he discovered something and his eyes became clear.
"Oh it's you."
Amosta said calmly.
His words caused Amelia and the inviter to be stunned for a moment. Although the latter did not understand the meaning, he became obviously more alert.
"If I remember correctly, Mr. Blaine--"
The man said in a hoarse, nervous voice,
"I only invited you. This young lady is not included in my invitation. Who is she?"
"Amelia Det."
Amosta's back sank into the back of the sofa, his fingers intertwined and resting on his knees, and he said calmly,
"Auror sent by the Security Department of MACUSA to protect my safety."
Hearing the Aurors from MACUSA, the veins on the man's forehead popped up. He glanced at Amelia, who was facing him with a cold expression, and resisted the urge to escape, breathing rapidly.
"This sounds like a joke, Mr. Brain, you are the most powerful wizard of our time and you don't need anyone to keep you safe."
"You should be aware that Security has seized my wand."
"But you subdued a poisonous leopard with your bare hands."
The No-Maj man was silent for a moment and said to Amosta,
"It doesn't seem sincere that you brought an Auror from the Security Department to see me."
"Sir, how can I help you?"
The waiter who delivered the meal passed by the No-Maj man and looked at him a little puzzled, not understanding why the guest was standing on the doorstep.
"No."
The No-Maj man took a deep breath, and finally walked towards the table he reserved without turning around.
Amelia was about to stand up and give up her seat to this suspicious No-Maj, but Amosta put her hand in the air and motioned for Amelia to sit down.
"You're not going to talk to me? In that case, why are you here today?"
Seeing this, the No-Maj man looked ugly. After the waiter put down the dishes and bowed to leave, he stood awkwardly at the table and asked in a low voice.
Amosta looked into this man's eyes and could clearly feel that behind these eyes, there was a wizard's consciousness shaking. His expression was calm to the point of indifference.
"You were just saying sincerity——"
Amosta's voice was also scornful and cold. He didn't even look at the man, but casually used a silver spoon to fiddle with the richly aromatic coffee prepared in front of him.
"You probably need my help for something, but you used the Imperius Curse to control a Muggle to meet me. Is this your sincerity?"
The Imperius Curse? !
Is the Muggle in front of me not the real wizard who wrote the invitation letter to Amosta, but an innocent Muggle controlled by the Imperius Curse, one of the three unforgivable curses?
Amelia stood up excitedly, and she subconsciously wanted to pull out her wand. However, before doing so, she realized that she was now in Muggle territory, and she could not expose her magic in front of these people!
"No matter who you are, you will definitely be punished by law!"
Amelia looked coldly into the No-Maj man's eyes and said.
"This lady Auror,"
After a moment of silence, the No-Maj man said in a low voice,
"I've been punished."
Then, he looked at Amosta and was about to say something, but Amosta raised his hand and stopped what the man wanted to say.
"I won't communicate anything with those who hide their heads and show their tails. If you want to talk to me, let the Muggle under your control leave safely and come to me in person."
The Muggle man's face changed, and he wanted to struggle, but Amosta glanced at him with majesty. The thunder-like pressure made his breathing difficult, and even the chandelier above his head flickered a few times.
"I'll only wait for you for ten minutes."
The coffee tasted quite mellow, but compared with the clear and sweet green tea, it was still not to Amosta's liking. He gently put down the porcelain cup and said indifferently,
"I will leave in ten minutes."
As he said that, Amosta raised his chin towards Amelia,
"You only have ten minutes to 'eliminate' these delicious meals, Amelia, don't waste it."
Amelia quickly understood the purpose of Amosta's words. She glanced at the blue-faced Muggle man coldly, and silently began to deal with the cheesecake on the table.
Seeing this, the No-Maj man's face changed again and again. He had already felt Amosta Braine's determination. If he didn't come here in person, I'm afraid Amosta Braine would really not communicate with him again.
But——
The No-Maj man glanced at Amelia. If he showed up before reaching a contract with Amosta, if Amosta Braine went back on his word and took him down here, he would have no choice but to die!
"Nine minutes left."
Amosta said calmly.
If he continued to stay in New York, he would be finished sooner or later. It's better to take a gamble, maybe there will be a chance of survival!
The No-Maj man gritted his teeth secretly,
"Please wait a moment."
After saying this, the No-Maj man hurried away, and left the cafe under the confused gaze of the cafe waiter.
"Aren't you worried that he will escape and not come back?"
After the No-Maj man left, Amelia no longer concealed her worries, leaned over, and asked worriedly.
"Don't worry——"
Amosta said lightly, but did not give his reason.
Ten minutes passed in a flash, but it was also very painful. Amelia kept biting her lips and looking at the door. She didn't know why Amos was so confident, but this was indeed the latest time that the Security Department received a criminal who poached a 5X-level high-risk creature.
She knew why this criminal gang did such a thing that angered the heavens and the people, but if such a magical creature appeared in the Muggle neighborhood, the consequences would be absolutely disastrous!
Amelia glanced at the wall clock from time to time. She watched the time pass by minute by minute, and her anxiety became more and more intense.
The girl who played the music before went to the lounge to change into a lavender dress and appeared in the hall again, leaning towards some men who applauded her.
Clang--
Just half a minute before the ten-minute limit given by Amos, another man wrapped in a gray coat broke into the cafe. He trotted all the way and rushed into the cafe without paying attention to the waiter's inquiry. This suspicious look even scared the girl who played the music.
She looked at the man's pale face in horror, staggered back a few steps, and her arm accidentally hit the corner of the piano, and her face immediately showed pain.
"This sir!"
A waiter helped the girl back to her lounge, and another waiter chased after her, shouting angrily.
"I'm coming."
Sato Ryuhei finally stood in front of Amosta and Amelia, panting.
Waving at the chasing waiter, Amosta looked at the wizard who had met him twice, and raised his eyebrows slightly,
"Then, please sit down--"
