Austrian time, 7:55 p.m., Salzburg.

"Is this where Max disappeared?"

Standing in front of the emergency building of Salk Hospital, Kruger looked up at the bright red word "Emergency" at the entrance, and a solemn look appeared on his face.

There were no active figures in the empty building, most of the floors had dimmed, and the open door looked like a monster with a huge mouth open.

"Gotta hold on, man. We're here to save you. ”

Kruger muttered in a low voice, pulled his trench coat to block his right hand, which had drawn his wand, and cautiously walked towards the gate, recalling in his mind the guess that Ms. Pope Rothschild had made before setting off—

......

Ten minutes ago, the Austrian Ministry of Magic.

"This is no ordinary disaster. ”

Looking at the faded metal card, Poppe Roshier narrowed his eyes and the corners of his mouth tightened.

Bruzer Kruger swore to God, he had never seen Lady Pope Roshier's face so ugly in all these years.

"Mr. Kruger, what do you think is a situation in which a trained member of the [Reversal of Accidental Magical Events] can be sent to the near-death in five seconds?"

"Accidental sneak attack?" replied Kruger, hesitantly.

"So what if it's two or even three times in a row? And each time it's a near-death experience at the next moment after recovery. The witch's brown eyes seemed to have an angry flame burning.

"There is no doubt that George was caught. ”

Without waiting for Kruger to respond, the youngest female director of Austria in hundreds of years waved her hand vigorously, her tone heavy and full of anger.

"This is only the case when a wizard is completely incapacitated. George Max may be going through a heinous and brutal torture at this time. ”

"Torture?!but...... What does George need to ......" Kruger's pupils shrank suddenly.

"That's what we need to find out later, but first, find a way to get George Max out of the way. ”

The short-haired blonde witch jerked her head to look at Kruger, her tone more serious than ever.

"I need you to go to Salzburg immediately to provide accurate coordinates for the follow-up, a safe staging point for support. ”

"Then, depending on the situation, Kruger, you can try to rescue George or wait for reinforcements to arrive. But in any case, you must be extra careful and always be vigilant. ”

......

Walking slowly into the emergency building, the first thing that greeted Kruger was a mess of information halls, as if there had been a fierce battle here.

Near the left-hand side of the doorway, a wall had been completely blown away by the spell, the floor had been lifted aside with great force, revealing the concrete foundation below, and the dirt in the flower bed behind the information desk had been blown all over the place.

And the weirdest thing is that even though the hall has changed to this appearance, neither the security guard standing at the door nor the nurse napping in the information desk seem to have any strange expressions.

"Has the corresponding memory been altered and erased? Max did it...... Or are there other wizards trying to cover up something?"

Kruger glanced at the unfocused look in his eyes, like the security guards and nurses who had just woken up, and it was clear that there was no way to get any useful information from the Muggle staff - this was typical of the after-effects of the Oblivion Charm and the Confusion Charm, and it would take at least an hour or two to gradually return to normal logical thinking.

Apparently he had to figure it out on his own, Kruger shook his head, looked carefully left and right in the hospital hall, and after making sure that there were no other dangers in the hall, he went to the corner and took out his wand and whispered.

"Seek the shadows. ”

Puffing out his cheeks, the wizard gripped the base of his wand with both hands and blew around like a balloon, and a large golden mist that only Kruger could see instantly poured out from the tip of his wand, silently filling the entire hall space.

"George Max. ”

Kruger cleared his throat and read clearly, and with a wave of his wand, the golden mist cleared, and a series of footprints appeared in the hall, showing the trajectory of George Max here a few hours ago.

"Strange, there are no signs of fighting......"

Kruger looked at the golden footprints in the hall, continuous and orderly, without any panic.

Everything seems to be normal, and George Max should still be dealing with the accident according to the normal process at this time.

Led by a female nurse, the golden footprints belonging to George Max spread to a room next to the information desk, and after a few moments, they continued in the direction of the ward area inside the hospital.

— and never came back.

"George...... What the hell have you encountered?"

Kruger frowned, looked ahead, walked into the room where George Max had spoken to Miss Nurse earlier, and placed a metal insignia engraved with the logo of the Austrian Ministry of Magic on the table.

There is no doubt that, at least for the time being, this place should be safe.

"Mentos. ”

The stout man tapped the surface of the metal badge with the wand in his hand, and a faint blue light appeared on the surface of the metal emblem, and the next moment, the metal badge disappeared on the table.

"That should be fine. Anyway, I'd better go and see the situation first. ”

After arranging the coordinates of the doorkey to guide the follow-up support personnel of the Ministry of Magic to arrive, Kruger casually cast a temporary Muggle banishment spell on the door of the room, swallowed his saliva, and held his wand and pointed at himself - [Armor Protection]

Then, the wizard cautiously walked towards the ward area ahead.

However, to Kruger's surprise, there were no magic traps along the way, and until he reached the ward where George Max's footprints had disappeared, the imaginary enemy did not appear.

"Is it just a false alarm?"

Kruger frowned, reached out and gently pushed open the door of the hidden ward, and was greeted by a very ordinary Muggle room.

On the first hospital bed on the right hand side of the door lay an old man with his eyes closed and his face full of vicissitudes, a little silver-haired girl in a Muggle costume was sitting on the edge of the bed and looking up at the drops of liquid in the infusion bottle, looking like the old man's family member.

For the average Muggle pair, Kruger just glanced nonchalantly at it, and after making sure there was nothing of note, he skipped it, and then stared at the location of the second hospital bed on the right hand after entering the door.

There, the missing George Max is fastened to a hospital bed with dark restraint straps, and a man in a white lab coat is injecting poor Max with some strange liquid.

"Let him go!bastard!What did you do to George?!"

Kruger looked around and saw no other danger, then quickly raised his wand and roared.

[Fainting]!

(/// ̄dish ̄)○—☆

Before the man in the white coat could turn around, a red magic beam shot out in an instant, hitting the man's back, and the powerful magic force knocked the man's body out and slammed into the bedside table beside him.

"Huh?"

Looking at George Max, who didn't have any wounds on his body, and then at the work card on the chest of the man in the white coat who had collapsed next to the cabinet, Kruger couldn't help frowning, "It seems like just a Muggle doctor?

"Doctor?!Who are you!What have you done?Help, help, has anyone called the police!"

At this moment, the silver-haired little girl who had been sitting on the next bed ran to the fainted man in a panic, then turned her face and looked at Kruger with a frightened expression, her trembling pestle in the center of the aisle, and a series of English quickly came out of her mouth.

Looking at the horror in the eyes of the Muggle child in front of him, Kruger frowned with some headaches, how could he still be a foreign child.

Obviously, due to his previous actions, the mood of the silver-haired little girl in front of him was very unstable, and her two little hands were waving wildly, unable to communicate effectively at all.

Kruger thought it was going to be a tough fight, but he still hasn't figured out what happened. But fortunately, George has been found, as long as George Max is rescued, everything will be clear after a little questioning.

"I'm sorry, little one, but I don't have the time to reassure you for the time being. ”

The burly adult wizard shook his head, reached out and effortlessly pushed aside the little girl who was in front of him, walked to George Max's hospital bed, and raised his wand.

"Recover!"

With the help of magic, George Max's eyelids twitched, and then his body shook suddenly—his eyes were closed tightly, and he looked like he was still unconscious.

"Hey, man, don't be afraid. It's me, I'm here to save you. Kruger raised his eyebrows amusedly, smiling.

"Kruger, why are you here?"

Hearing a familiar voice, George Max slowly opened his eyes and looked at the familiar faces that appeared in front of him. The next moment, a trace of fear appeared on the wizard's face, and he tried to raise his head and look around, "What about the little devil?"

"Of course I saw your metal nameplate warning! By the way, what little devil? man, what are you talking about?"

Looking at the panicked George Max in front of him, a look of confusion appeared on Kruger's face, "I didn't see any enemies along the way, Max, why did you make such a mess of yourself?"

"Kruger, back! no!" At this moment, George Max's eyes suddenly shrank and he shouted loudly.

"There's nothing behind it...... Kruger turned around in confusion, a pair of familiar lake-blue eyes came into view, a small plain white hand quickly cut to his wand-holding arm, and the other hand pinched a metal tray and slapped him on the forehead.

Click!

Boom!

The moment it touched the girl's palm, Kruger's arm bent into a strange shape in an instant, and an unprecedented pain instantly made him unconsciously let go of the wand in his hand.

The next moment, with the fall of the metal tray, the man's world quickly darkened.

Elena crouched down, took the somewhat deformed metal tray and smashed it a few more times, and after confirming that the burly strong man on the ground had fallen into a deep coma, she stood up and smiled at George Max on the hospital bed.

"Sorry, you shouldn't have woken up...... It's just that only then will he let his guard down. ”

"Wait, you're a wizard too, aren't you? I can't resist now, a simple stun spell will do, I demand the most basic dignity. George Max glanced at Kruger, who had fallen to the ground, swallowed, and said quickly.

"Basic dignity?"

Erin raised an eyebrow and shrugged after thinking about it, "Okay, I promise you." But in exchange, you'll need to tell me why someone is looking for you, and how many people will come next, and how high the level of strength will be. ”

George Max nodded hurriedly, he didn't want to try the terrible and savage attack of the little devil in front of him again, he doubted that he would never wake up again if he was not careful.

Moreover, the question asked by the girl was not a particular secret.

Two minutes later.

"Thank you for explaining, I understand. ”

Elena nodded politely, picked up the metal tray on the ground and walked to George Max, smiling slightly, "The release process of the coma spell may be a little painful, you can bear with it a little." ”

"Wait ......," George Max's pupils dilated.

“rua！”

Bang! Bang!

"It's alarmed the Austrian Ministry of Magic...... The problem gets tricky. ”

Elena frowned and looked down at the back of her left hand.

Bound by an unbreakable oath, she is unable to actively attack others until she is attacked, which is undoubtedly a rather unfavorable situation. Otherwise, she can also rely on her rich experience in eating chicken, and try to use the terrain advantage to ambush and sneak attack nearby.

Raising her head to look at Grindelwald, who was still not awake in the hospital bed next to her, Elena stood up, tore off the medical record board at the end of the old man's bed and stuffed it into her arms, then picked up the two wands on the ground, her eyes flickering and deep in thought.

......

At the same time, far away in the Austrian Ministry of Magic, the two metal plates belonging to Kruger and Max were rapidly dyed red, and the shrill sirens echoed throughout the office.

"Damn! Kruger was caught too, it's a trap! A terrible conspiracy and provocation. ”

Pope Rohill let out a low growl and looked around at the dozen or so wizards gathered around her: the Reversal Chance Magic Team, the Auror Office, the Magic Enforcement Section, the Amnestics Command ...... The witch's expression became extraordinarily serious.

In just one afternoon, two wizards lost contact in quick succession, something that had not happened to the Austrian Ministry of Magic since the fall of Grindelwald more than forty years ago and the end of the Total Wizarding War.

"Ladies and gentlemen, prepare for battle. The enemy is extremely dangerous, and the information that has been obtained is that neither Kruger nor Max were knocked down by the other party in an instant, and not even a single message could be transmitted. ”

"Although Mr. Kruger had delivered a copy of the location coordinates in advance, I don't recommend using the portkey for teleportation as Kruger has also lost contact. The safest thing to do is to move everyone to the outskirts of Salzburg, meet and go to the portkey location together. ”

"Everyone, set off in groups, at least keep the three of them acting together, and don't be left alone. ”

"Let's go!"
