Before going to the Parkinson house, Knott had no idea that the real buyer was Namaka McLean. Ulterior Truth be told, if he had known the truth earlier, he would never have considered stepping over Vanasha as an intermediary again.

However, when Knott leaves Parkinson's house in a hurry, intending to give up some greedy ideas and go straight home to complete the deal with Vanessa, he runs into the last person he wants to see in his own home.

“…… Unexpectedly, this time turner turned out to be what Mr. McLean wanted. ”

As far as Maca's abilities are concerned, Nott knows much better than Mrs. Parkinson. So as soon as he saw Maca, his first reaction was not to turn around and run away, but to try to fool the past as much as possible.

Run, you can't run away.

"Oh! Right...... Time Converter ......"

As he spoke, Noether suddenly rummaged through his pockets and took the initiative to walk towards Maca. Seeing this, Maca also had some expectations.

It's been a lot of trouble to get this time turner, and it would be great if you could get it.

But at this moment, there was a rather familiar fluctuation of magic power, which made Maca slightly stunned.

"Mr. McLean, it's here, you take it." Knott took out the time-turner he had gotten from Walton from his pocket and handed it to Maca, "Of course, you don't need a single gold Galleon, it's free!" ”

However, it was not long before Knott saw Makana's gradually frowning brow, which made him shudder.

McKellen ...... Mr? He couldn't help but cautiously ask, "What's wrong?" ”

And at this moment, opposite him, Maca held the time turner in the palm of her hand with one hand, but shook her head lightly and said:

"This was stolen from the Ministry of Magic, right?"

"Uh, no"

When he heard Maca's question, the first thought that flashed through Noether's mind was to deny it. But at the thought that denial might be meaningless, he immediately stopped talking.

Then, I listened to him honestly:

"Okay...... Yes, from the Time Hall of the Department of Mysteries...... Oh, but I didn't take it, yes."

"Who is it?"

Seeing that he stopped in the middle of speaking, Maca asked casually.

It can be seen that Knott seems to be a little hesitant Walton is a rare friend in his life, and he is the kind that has been played since he was a child, and he must be hesitant to betray his friends.

Merely...... Obviously, the deep friendship with Walton in the past was completely erased by an amnesia spell cast by Azkaban himself long before he was imprisoned.

Although he was very familiar with each other before, for the current Noether, Walton McNeil is just a slightly familiar stranger.

"Hmm......," he said after a moment's pause, "It's Walton McNeill, a staff member of the Department of Magical Beasts Control at the Ministry of Magic, who used to be a Death Eater. ”

"McNeill," Maca thought for a moment, and quickly understood, "Oh, is that the executioner of the Committee for the Disposal of Dangerous Animals?" ”

To be honest, Maca's reaction when she heard this sentence was obviously very different from what Noether had imagined.

Noether had thought that Maca would at least frown and be slightly surprised when she heard "Death Eater". But in fact, he found that Maca didn't show the slightest surprise as if she had known that there was such a Death Eater lurking in the Ministry of Magic.

In fact, Maca did know the identity of this "Walton McNeill" Death Eater, not only that, but he even had a few words with that guy in the early years!

"Mr. McLean, you...... Know Walton? ”

"Huh?"

Maca was still staring at the time turner in her hand, and said a little casually:

"yes...... In the past, there was a Hippogriff that needed to be executed, and he was the executioner at the time. ”

With that, he suddenly shoved the time turner back into Nott's hand, smacked his lips, and said impatiently:

"Take it back! It's fake. ”

"What!"

Noether only felt a slight sinking in his hand, and then he heard Maca's words. Suddenly, he was dumbfounded, and it took several seconds for him to react.

"This ...... How can it be? At the time, I was obviously ......"

"I saw Walton take it with my own eyes in the Hall of Time." He secretly added this sentence in his heart.

Noether obviously didn't dare to say this, after all, in the Department of Mysteries, they had also ambushed Maca under the leadership of Voldemort.

But because these "little minions" were not inconspicuous at the time, to this day, Maca seems to have long lost sight of who they were. If he dares to speak out now, won't he be looking for his own death?

However, this does not prevent him from having a lot of confusion about the current state of affairs, is this false? How is this possible? How can there be a fake time turner in the Ministry of Magic?

Unless......

“…… Walton guy, he lied to me? ”

"I'm afraid not." Maca shook her head and said, "Actually, I made this time turner myself with Transfiguration, I made a total of five, and I used them to replace the five real ones in the Department of Mysteries. ”

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but rub his forehead a little annoyed, and then waved his hand and said:

"If you have any clues about the time turner, tell me right away, understand? As long as you can find one that can be used, whether it's a reduction in Azkaban's sentence or more gold galleons, everything is easy to say. ”

"I'll go first...... Send the owl to the Leaky Cauldron when there's news. ”

Before she could finish speaking, Maca walked straight to the door, and soon left the field of vision of the three people present.

Walking in the alley outside, Maca couldn't help but shake her head again, she had wasted so much time, and she was happy in vain.

And more importantly, the clue that he finally found at the beginning was not only a dead end, but the wall of the dead end was actually built by himself back then!

I have to say that after this time, Maca still had some irrepressible irritability in her heart after all.

"Calm down...... Calm down......" He paused, bowed his head slightly, and muttered to himself, "Think about it, where else can you find a time turner?" Who else ......"

All in all, let's go find Lucius first! Let Lucius ask all the pure-blood families as much as he can, while he himself goes to the Werther family in the underground black market.

With such a two-pronged approach, at least the efficiency will be much higher than that of him alone.

……

Just as Maca was about to go to Lucius, inside Malfoy Manor.

Since London and Hogwarts are undoubtedly unstable at the moment, as Draco's parents, the Malfoys' hearts are obviously half-hanging.

Fortunately, Draco also participated in the Hogwarts study tour, which was somewhat of a relief to the couple.

Seeing that London had become more and more dangerous in the past two days, Lucius and his wife could only hide at home, and did not dare to go anywhere. While secretly praying for a smooth journey for their son, they seemed to have nothing else to ask for.

Yes, although some time ago, under that opportune opportunity, the Malfoy family has returned to the attention of many families and ordinary wizards. But now, they don't have the heart to care about that.

There is no doubt that compared to his own life, that honor may not be a big deal.

However, although they don't want to go out at all, things will always come to their door.

"Knock Knock"

Coldly, there was a knock on the door of the mansion, which made the Malfoys, who were sitting in the side hall tremble, trembling slightly.

"At this time...... Who will come? ”

Lucius's face was a little unnatural, and Narcissa's expression was no better than her husband's. Seeing that the house-elf who was waiting was about to open the door, Lucius said:

"Wait, don't go yet."

"Yes, master."

The elf who took over Dobby's service to the Malfoy family, although not as smart as Dobby, has the greatest advantage of obedience. Lucius told him not to go, and he should have hunched over his head and the pestle stood still.

It's a pity that the person who knocked on the door outside at this moment has long since run out of patience in his heart.
