"Hey! Listen...... We must go now, you turn my son back!" ”

"I won't."

"You made him like this, how could you not?"

"I won't."

"Can't you say something else?"

"I really won't ......"

Old Victor suddenly found that communicating with a spider much larger than himself did not seem to be as difficult as he imagined. But even so, he never got the results he wanted.

"Is it just those wizards to come?"

The old man muttered indignantly, but soon shook his head again.

"No, I've never had anything good with those wizards! I can't have any more contact with them......"

Maybe it's really as he said, but maybe it's because of the persistence he has poured into his wife for so many years, which makes him have a great dislike for the wizarding community.

The thought of the woman he once loved would probably have died quietly in a corner he didn't know about, and his chest felt like something was blocked, making him feel breathless.

Now, he just wants to leave this so-called "wizarding world" that makes him uncomfortable as soon as possible, and return home to spend the rest of his life in silence.

To be honest, if he was the only one now, he would have found a way to escape from this hellish place.

However, the reality is that he and the only son in his life have been turned into a hard statue, and he can't even feel his breath and heartbeat.

If it weren't for the fact that the boy named "Harry" said he was still alive, old Victor would have thought that his poor son would have gone to heaven!

"It's all Daddy's fault...... Daddy shouldn't let you break into this kind of dangerous world just on the spur of the moment. Forget it, the last ...... When they get you back, we'll go home and never have anything to do with these wizards again!" ”

It is obviously not easy to get this stubborn old man to say this. It seems that this time he wants to completely cut off the magical bond formed by his wife from the bottom of his heart.

"Wait here, Daddy will be back in a moment."

After leaving such a sentence at the "statue" of his son, old Victor turned around neatly, but before he could take the first step, he looked at the spiders in the room with a slight pause.

After being stunned for a few seconds, he said angrily:

"Spider ...... Can I go out? ”

"Of course."

The mission of the eight-eyed giant spider is really just to guard the big man who poses a danger to the people of St. Mungo. In fact, it wouldn't even care if little Victor wanted to go—well, if he could.

Seeing that he had obtained the consent of the obviously spider "leader", old Victor raised his foot with a melancholy face and slowly fell forward tentatively.

He had seen Sirius leave before, but even if he knew that those little things would avoid themselves, it would be difficult for him to get down when there were spiders under his feet.

Seeing this, Xiao Wu, who was standing silently next to him, actually raised his long legs to push him "kindly", but he was startled.

"Is this really a spider......

In the past, when his wife was still alive, she actually secretly talked about some things in the wizarding world. It's just that for some reason, it's basically not very clear.

It was during that period that the elder Victor had a general impression of the wizarding world.

According to his wife's rough description, he thought that the wizarding world was actually a very beautiful place, and although he didn't know what kind of people and things there were, he could always feel the warmth from his wife's beautiful smile.

At that time, it was unimaginable to have a spider as big and as scary as it looked.

But in the past few days, after a period of crises everywhere, the existence of a large spider like this seems to be nothing surprising.

Oh, and at best, it's really scary to be able to speak human words.

However, it is precisely because he has personally felt the danger and darkness of the wizarding world that old Victor suddenly feels a little difficult to accept the "friendly" side of this big spider.

Could it be that in this magical world, only animals are truly good?

The old man was pushed a few steps forward by the eight-eyed giant spider Xiao Wu, and then stopped in a daze. After a moment, he turned back coldly and asked:

"Hey! Spider, you ...... Do you think humans are your friends? ”

When Xiao Wu heard this, as if he was thinking, he tapped his mouthparts twice, and paused:

"Humans are the most delicious food."

"Uh...... Excuse me. ”

Old Victor turned his head and walked towards the door, and the thought of leaving this hellish place with his son suddenly became more and more determined.

“…… However, maca is not allowed to eat human flesh, so ...... Probably the tastiest? ”

When he walked out of the door, Xiao Wu rubbed his front legs and added suspiciously.

……

At the same time, in the front hall.

“…… That's probably it at the time, the scene was very chaotic, and I don't know more specifics. All in all, it was the first hand of the man surnamed Victor - he actually smashed people to the ceiling! It's horrible, I've never seen such a murderous dark wizard! ”

"'Never seen before'?"

"Oh...... All right! I've seen it two or three times at most...... No, only once or twice! Seriously, that's brutal enough, isn't it? ”

For this old witch who was attracted by ten golden gallons, Sirius felt that he could only trust the other party at most, because the remaining twenty percent was not very reliable.

But Hermione didn't pay attention to some of the exaggerations in those words, and seeing that the other party seemed to be finished, she opened her mouth and asked:

"So, the one who was thrown to the ceiling and then fell into a coma was a wounded with a bandaged head?"

"Yes, that's definitely right!"

The old witch said, and came closer in a matter-of-fact manner, and said in a low voice:

"Actually! The bandaged man was also suspicious. Maybe no one noticed, but I noticed that something was wrong with him - he had been lying on the ground for the past few days, barely moving. ”

"I think the one you said turned into a big monster, most likely he didn't run away!"

When Hermione heard this, she didn't say much, just nodded slightly.

"If you're right, ten gold gallons are yours."

It only takes a few words to get ten gold galleons, which is not a lot, but it is also a sum of money that can be obtained without much effort.

Seeing Hermione nodding, the old witch also looked very happy, and suddenly stretched out her hand.

However, Sirius next to her blocked her hand.

"Wait until these words have been verified—if it's all right, sooner or later it's yours; But if you talk nonsense and try to cheat the Golden Galleons, I'll take you to Azkaban for a tour in advance!" ”

"Oh, how dare I! Guaranteed to be true! ”

As she spoke, the old witch hurriedly stepped back a few steps, a flattering smile on her face.

Looking at the other party's disgusting old face, Sirius couldn't help but mutter:

"No wonder Maca wants to gather those people together and not let them come out casually, I don't believe that this kind of person is a dark wizard, but it can't be a good thing. If something happens, these people will definitely be the first to betray us. ”

Not to mention Sirius' deep approval of Maca's decision, Hermione had already lowered her head and began to re-examine the book that Ron had taken out.

It didn't take long for Hermione, who had flipped it over twice in quick succession, to raise her head again and nod at her companions around her.

"According to the woman, the patient's entire head was bandaged," she said, "but there is no record of a similar injury on the subject." ”

Hermione's meaning had been made clear, that is, there was indeed something wrong with the bandaged man. To say that it is to become the big man in the room, the possibility is very high.

"So, how the hell did he get in?" Ron seemed a little confused, "Except for today, Maca goes to that makeshift ward at least once a day - it's harder to fool under Maca's nose than to sneak into the Ministry of Magic!" ”

Hermione couldn't help but nod when she saw that Ron was finally willing to use his brain to get down to business.

"It's a big question," she said, after a moment's thought, "but there's more to it than that—what I want to know most now is, who is this man?" ”

Although the spiders raised by Maca are not ordinarily powerful, it is unlikely that Helpo will easily petrify Helpo, so that person must not be Helpo himself.

Therefore, if you can find out the identity of the other party as soon as possible, you may be able to find some precious clues.

"Let's go back and see! Now that I have a clue, I might be able to see something out of the big petrified man. ”

As she spoke, Hermione was about to turn and head to the side door, but a figure walked in from the outside before her.

"That...... Feed! Restore my son to his original self! ”

"What?" Sirius frowned and said, "Harry said he wanted to help you, but you didn't even agree to let us get closer, and now you're here again-"

"Sirius!"

Harry hurriedly tugged at his robe, lest he have such a violent temper that he would quarrel with the old Victor if it didn't go his way.

You know, now is not the time to fight.

"Sorry, Mr. Victor...... We can't do that yet. Ginny, who was not far away, said, "But don't worry, we'll get your son back to life." ”

It's a pity that no matter how good Ginny is, after all, her own son has become a "statue", which is not something that can be persuaded with a kind word.
