Chapter XXVIII

Although it was already daytime, the Austrian Ministry of Magic, which had been busy all night, had no intention of resting and was still working overtime.

Many of the Aurors dragged their tired bodies with bloodshot eyes.

Austria is a small country with few wizards and a low crime rate.

Usually lazy, and at the same time as the elderly, he works part-time as an Auror. Now suddenly there is an all-night search, who can withstand this?

The body can't bear it!

As for fishing...... Don't dare to touch it, in one night, Minister Soros came several times and caught a lot of lazy wizards.

It's a lot like chatting in a game group at work, only to be discovered by a boss who is also diving in the group...... It's horrible.

Of course, the most terrible thing is that this uncontrolled overtime does not know how long it will last.

They don't even know if this seemingly ineffective search is really useful.

Anyway, the enemy is simply gone.

As for the wizards they were searching for, there were two in total, which were:

Grindelwald who escaped from prison; The missing duo of Wei He.

Bad old man,

Young couples.

Minister Soros gave an order to notify the ministry as soon as Grindelwald was discovered.

Stark and Granger are not criminals.

If you see it, be careful to "please" back to the Ministry of Magic.

It seems that the former is much more dangerous than the latter.

But in the hearts of this group of young people in their twenties, they don't think so at all, right?

Grindelwald?

Who is that, a bad old man who has been locked up for half a century, where is there still combat effectiveness!

Who to look down on?

We're the Aurors of Sugar!

Stark and Granger are different, many Aurors also went to England last year to watch the Quidditch World Cup.

They all have memories of the thrilling final, especially in the middle of the night, when Stark vs. the mascots of various countries.

Of course, it's not hand-to-hand fighting, but the big, tank-like Selma Lake Monster.

In addition, Venice was destroyed last year, Albanian forests suffered from fires, and the Grand Paris of the year before last......

It is no exaggeration to say that everywhere the two go, there is no grass.

This kind of wizard is a big problem, you need to be vigilant, okay?

What if they ruin Vienna as well?

Minister Soros was not worried about William and Hermione at all, but all his attention was focused on Grindelwald.

Standing in the minister's office, he kept pacing, trying to clear his mind.

It was inconceivable that the man would leave Newmengard.

During the robbery of prison decades ago, Vader Rozier brought so many wizards to save him, but he didn't want to leave, but trapped himself for decades.

Why did you choose to leave this time?

Soros was a little anxious.

He took out a bottle of malt whisky, but instead of pouring himself a glass, he clutched the bottle as if to pop it with his bare hands.

Just then, an Auror knocked on the door and walked in.

He was pleasantly surprised: "Minister, there is a discovery!" ”

"What discovery?" Soros brace himself.

"A wizard has just reported the crime, and Grindelwald has approached him and asked him where Grigovich is."

"Grigovich?" Minister Soros was stunned.

"Nothing happened to that wizard, did you?"

"No, Grindelwald didn't kill him, and after asking for the location, he left."

"I remember that after his retirement, Grigovich lived in seclusion in Salzburg......"

……

……

Salzburg, the capital of the state of Salzburg, is the fourth largest city in Austria after Vienna, Graz and Linz.

Salzburg may not be as well known, but it's Mozart's birthplace.

He lived a short life of less than 36 years, and more than half of his life was spent here.

But William didn't know this,

His only impression of Salzburg comes from an excerpt from a text in his previous life, The Sound of Music.

The place where the movie takes place is in Salzburg.

By the time William and Hermione arrived at their destination, it was almost morning.

Last night, I said I would get up early and set off, but in the end, because of some force majeure factors, I got up very late.

Thankfully, Missandei provided her Glaling, and William and Hermione could catch up on sleep in the carriage.

According to the address given by Missandei, William drove the carriage along a winding path into an open square.

To their left, they could see in the distance a shallow oval lake with a small island dotted with a large number of elderberries.

"We're here!" Hermione said with some excitement.

According to Missandei's description, the place where Grigovich lived in seclusion had a dense patch of elderberries.

But there are no houses on the island, and there are dense trees all around.

β€”β€”Tall and tall cypress trees that are hundreds of years old.

"There's a gap there!" William searched for a moment.

He gestured to Hermione, and raised his hand to the cypress grove, where there was a small arched gap in the impermeable tree wall.

Hermione quickly got out of the carriage and walked to the gap, peering out into the shaded passageway.

Soon, she turned to face William and smiled: "The carriage is impassable, and the two of us can only walk." ”

William nodded, got out of the carriage as well, and put Glaring in the safety sheet.

Once he had cleaned up, he followed Hermione into the mouth and disappeared into the bushes.

On both sides are repaired holm oak trees, like a phalanx, sandwiching the secret passage in the middle.

The trees were also carefully trimmed by their owners so that they bend inwards and the foliage are intertwined to form a dense canopy above the road.

It's a nice place to stay.

The two of them quickly walked out of the dark passage, and in front of them was a beautiful little house.

The walls are crawling with creepers.

The door was open, and William and Hermione walked towards the room.

It's more like a wand workshop, it's more like a wand workshop, full of wood chips and precious magical materials.

A stocky old man with snow-white hair and a fluffy beard.

He was dressed in black overalls and was busy working on a creaking wooden chair.

In just a minute, a wand appeared in his hand, but he didn't seem satisfied, and quickly threw it into the fire.

William was stunned, the shape of the wand was extremely familiar to him.

Because he's seen it countless times.

- Dumbledore's wand!

Almost identical.

Hearing the footsteps, the old man got up irritably and shouted, "Stop playing...... You bear kids, I'm just a retired old man! ”

But when he saw William and Hermione, he was a little embarrassed, scratched his beard, and said apologetically:

"I thought it was Jim's grandson and granddaughter next door, they always come to me to mischievous."

Seeing that William had been staring at the wand in his hand, Grigovich frowned and said vigilantly: "Is there something wrong with the two of you?" ”

William suddenly spoke, "Is that the Elder Wand?" ”

Grigovich's pupils shrank sharply, and he immediately shook his head and said:

"I haven't heard of any old wands, I'm a retired old man who picks up garbage now."

"But the wand in your hand ......"

"Okay, don't get in the way of me going to the garbage." Grigovich's wand was raised, and debris from the ground flew into the trash.

"I heard Mr. Ollivander say......" William added.

Grigovich suddenly burst out:

"If you haven't seen it, you haven't seen it! I don't know Ollivander either, I'm going to throw out the trash, don't pester me anymore! ”

William sighed.

He felt he could write for the Daily Prophet.

The title is called: Shocked, Grigovich talks about Ollivanders, three sentences without leaving the garbage.

Or: Men and women cry, Grigovich opens his mouth to talk about rubbish when he talks about his opinion of the Elder Wand.

Just as William was about to ask some questions about Grindelwald, Grigovich suddenly dropped the garbage and cried:

"I see, you're sent by death! The eldest of the three brothers is dead! The Grim Reaper wants my soul!

I already feel death looming! ”

William and Hermione looked at each other in surprise.
