Chapter 904 Interrogation and Pendant
After dealing with those yelling Muggles, the leading Auror quickly turned his attention to Ivan, looked at him carefully for a while, and then asked.
"Tell me your name and reason for coming, wizard! Ordinary people would not come to this remote town deliberately during such a special period... Besides, you just attacked them rashly and ruined our original plan. You know We have been following them all day..."
The Auror's expression was very unkind. They finally caught two mice and were trying to see if they could catch a big fish. However, Ivan walked in and this happened in the hotel.
He even suspected that the wizard in front of him, who looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, was one of the accomplices of the two wizards.
"I think you misunderstood, sir. This commotion has nothing to do with me. It's just that these two wizard gentlemen wanted to tease the Muggles in the hotel on a whim." Ivan didn't panic at all and answered calmly. road. "If you don't believe it, you can question these people..."
At this point, Ivan suddenly paused, and suddenly remembered that the two men were very secretive when casting spells. If they really wanted to interrogate those Muggles, they couldn't seem to get anything out of them, let alone clear up their own suspicions.
Fortunately, at this moment, the female Auror who had just walked over after casting the spell recognized him at a glance and said in surprise. "Ivan? Why are you here..."
Hearing this slightly familiar voice, Ivan turned his head and glanced. The speaker was a witch with silver hair, and her beautiful face exuded a different kind of charm.
"Fleur?!" Ivan was somewhat surprised. He didn't expect that he would meet an acquaintance just after arriving in France, and it was under such special circumstances.
But after being surprised, Ivan quickly reacted, looked at the standard robe worn by the witch, and said with a smile. "I haven't seen you for more than a year, and you've become an Auror? Congratulations!"
"It's just an internship, I haven't officially joined the job yet." Fleur shrugged and said modestly, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up. There were more than ten graduates in their current batch who applied for the Auror exam, but only She was chosen alone.
"Ahem..." The leading Auror coughed twice, interrupting the conversation between the two. He looked dissatisfied at Fleur, who had started chatting with her inexplicably, and asked. "Do you know him, Ms. Delacour? Could it be that you are...alumni of Beauxbatons?"
"No, Ivan is a student at Hogwarts in England. We met at the Triwizard Tournament." Fleur explained, and then asked in surprise. "Captain Bruno, haven't you seen Hals's deeds in the newspapers?"
Bruno was stunned for a moment. Of course he had heard of last year's Triwizard Tournament.
It's just that Beauxbatons College lost miserably in that game, and all the limelight was stolen by the two warriors of Hogwarts. Even the mainstream media reported it in vague terms, implying that the warriors of Hogwarts cheated secretly. , so he didn’t pay much attention to that event at all.
"Since you are a student at Hogwarts, why did you come to France? Why did you come to this small town?" Bruno did not let down his guard just because the wizard in front of him was famous. He showed no mercy. cross-examined.
"If you have read any British newspaper, you should know that I graduated from Hogwarts this year. As for the purpose of my coming here..." Ivan hesitated and said truthfully when he felt that there was no need to hide it.
"Let's put it this way, I am very interested in the research of magical creatures, so I took the initiative to apply to become Mr. Rolf's assistant to study and capture thunderbirds together. This is my certificate. Do you have any questions? Mr. Bruno?"
Ivan took out a few pamphlets that Pierce gave him from the suitcase and put them on the table. He was not sneaking here this time, but was actually hired by the International Federation of Wizards, even though he was an apprentice. name.
Bruno glanced at him suspiciously, picked up the certificate on the table and checked it carefully. After confirming that it was genuine, he casually asked a few questions about the Thunderbird's habits and habitat, and saw that Ivan answered fluently. Only then did he lower his guard a little.
Ivan was also relieved. Although he was not afraid of these Aurors, it would be really difficult if they really planned to make things difficult for him.
You can't just beat up these law enforcement officers for a trivial matter, right?
This is France, not England. It would be bad if it caused a series of diplomatic problems...
After dispelling his suspicion about Ivan, Bruno strode to the two unconscious wizards, pulled open the chest of one of them and pulled out a silver triangular pendant from inside.
Ivan's pupils couldn't help but shrink as he watched this scene, because the style of the pendant was very familiar to him. It was the Deathly Hallows... no, it should be said to be the symbol of a saint!
More than fifty years ago, Grindelwald was obsessed with pursuing the power of the Deathly Hallows and often used this symbol to refer to himself, so much so that his followers often carried similar items.
"Captain Bruno, I would like to ask, are these two escaped criminals?" Ivan asked tentatively.
"This is not something you should care about, kid!" Bruno looked at Ivan very warily and stared at him for a long time before he said. "Let me give you another piece of advice. This town is not very safe these days. When you see strange wizards, remember to stay away and don't cause trouble for nothing. Do you understand?"
"I'll pay attention." Ivan said in a calm tone, even if he stopped trying to obtain information from Bruno, he couldn't use Legilimency anymore.
The Auror captain was very vigilant and was obviously a veteran. If he rashly activated Legilimency, he would probably be noticed by the other party.
Bruno saw that the wizard in front of him didn't listen to his words at all, but a reminder was already the end of his kindness, so he said nothing more and waved his hand to signal the Aurors to take the captured prisoners and leave.
Before leaving, Fleur looked at Ivan apologetically. She was just a trainee Auror and had no right to speak, let alone stand up to speak for Ivan.
After the Aurors left together, the seven Muggles in the hotel were freed from the confusion spell and continued to eat in a daze, as if the commotion that had just occurred was just an illusion. No one noticed that the people sitting there were sitting there. The two men next to them had been taken away.
Seeing this scene, Ivan somewhat understood why many wizards felt that they were superior to others. To a certain extent, Muggles were playthings in their hands, and even if they were played with, they would not know anything about it.
