Chapter 39: A Sense of Foreboding

"Are you kidding me? Mondongues!" Silver grabbed Montungus by the neck and pinned him against the wall outside the bar. He pinched him tightly with one hand, and with the other he pulled out his wand and aimed it at his throat. "If you don't tell the truth, I don't mind using a more violent way to get the information I need directly from your brain. ”

"Jack!" Hermione exclaimed.

"Tigermen would never trade moon candy or scuma on the night of the new moon," Silver said. He almost nose-to-nose with Mundungus and smelled the smell of stinking tobacco and spirits, "You're not telling the truth. ”

"I-no-what?" said Mundungus, his face slowly turning the color of a pig's liver.

"You're lying," Silver yelled.

"Don't be like this, Jack, you have something to say. Hermione was horrified by Silver's appearance, she had never seen such a horrible Silver.

"Hermione, you can't be too polite to deal with this old slippery head. Silver stared intently at Mundungus, his grip on his neck loosening slightly, allowing Mundungus to breathe freely. "Moon candy is considered by the tigers to be the 'crystallization of moonlight', and the moon candy is stored in the sea and washed ashore at the time of the full moon. The Tigermen only collect Moon Candy and purify Skuma during the full moon, and they also only trade this 'Luna God's Gift' with foreigners during the full moon, isn't it a lie that Mundungus just said that he could find the Tiger Man in Tumbledown Alley on the next New Moon?!"

"I-no-"

"Then tell the truth, or I'll send you to Azkaban." ”

There was a loud thud, and Silver felt his hands bounce off Mundungus' neck. Mundungus gasped for air, grabbed the box that had fallen to the ground, and thenβ€”snapβ€”he apparitioned.

"You see, as long as I relax a little, that old slippery head will find a way to escape. Silver said to Hermione, "I should have given him a bondage charm." ”

"He won't say it, Jack. ”

Tonks popped out of nowhere, her gray-brown head soaked in the rain and snow.

"Mundungus now has the guts to touch Skuma. Silver handed Tonks the Skuma that he had just put away, "I remember you were the Auror of the Drug Enforcement Division. ”

"Yes, but," said Tonks, who seemed completely indifferent to the news, "you shouldn't be frozen here, we'll go in and talk about that." ”

They entered the door of the three-broom bar, found an empty table and sat down.

"The way you just looked was terrifying. Hermione whispered, "I'll get you a drink." ”

A few minutes later, Hermione returned to their table with three bottles of Butterbeer.

"Scuma's thing is extraordinary, but why aren't you surprised?" said Silver.

"Because we already know that Mundungus has a lot of money lately, and last month Lupin was now peddling Skumar and trying to stop him. Tonks took a sip of Butterbeer," Mundungus stiffened and refused to say anything. ”

"Then he should be sent to Azkaban. ”

"He's a member of the Order of the Phoenix, after all, and we don't want to do that unless we have to. Tonks said, "Dumbledore also knows about this, and he told us to leave Montungus alone for a while. ”

"Is this a laissez-faire Skuma trade? In that case, I'll start trading Skuma tomorrow. Silver snorted, "Is that what Dumbledore wants to see when wizards in England become addicts?"

"Mundungus doesn't have that much at it. Tonks said, "Dumbledore wanted to catch big fish with a long line. ”

"I'm afraid that the big fish won't be caught, and the small fish will run away. Silver said, "You can't let Montungus go just because he's a member of the Order of the Phoenix, Peter Pettigrew was also a member of the Order of the Phoenix, you see what he's done!"

Tonks smiled awkwardly.

"You've been following Mondigus. Silver changed the subject, "It's useless for you to do this, Mondigus is an old slippery man who often deals with the Aurors, and he knows that you won't do anything to him for the time being, so he has nothing to fear." It's not easy to follow his clues to find the source behind this Skuma, what have you achieved now?"

Tonks shook his head.

Silver finished his beer from his bottle, "So that's it for today, we need to go back to school, help me tell Dumbledore that I will always have zero tolerance for Skuma." ”

Silver and Hermione wrapped their cloaks tightly, covered their faces with their scarves, put on their gloves, and walked back down the road. They walked with great difficulty, treading the slush that had been frozen the road.

"Jack, why are you so sensitive to Skuma?"

"Because Scuma is inseparable from the dark arts, Hermione. Silver frowned and tightened his cloak, "I have a hunch that something bad is coming. ”
