Just believing in Maca and doing nothing may be enough for Cathy. But for Willie herself, that wasn't enough.

Yes, if she still has the ability to act for Maca and to bring this disaster to an end as quickly as possible, then do nothing.

It's just a slack, isn't it?

Therefore, what Willy said just now was obviously just to make these friends in front of her try not to think nonsense.

It's a pity that even if Lupin didn't mention too much news about the outside world in front of Cathy and the others, there is obviously no shortage of thoughtful objects here. Only relying on the sporadic information that they learned one after another, they gradually pieced together a lot of disturbing episodes of events.

As the sense of crisis that is constantly surging in the outside world infiltrates bit by bit, how can everyone's hearts be calm now?

Trying to keep them from thinking about it is something that would have been impossible in the first place.

And it is worth mentioning that in fact, even the "believe him" that Willy said at the moment has become a very bad side proof of the state of Maca now.

If Maca was fine, why would she say that?

However, perhaps out of trust in Willy and helplessness for the small power she possessed, no one further asked.

It turns out that many things in this world can be contradictory, especially when it comes to people's emotions.

When there was a disconnect from the real-time situation in the outside world, everyone wanted to know more, and even spent a lot of energy piecing together the facts from Lupin's words. But when we learned more and more about the actual situation, we found that sometimes ignorance may be a kind of happiness.

Compared to facing the abyss and being powerless, being swallowed by the abyss without knowing anything, at least the time of pain and fear can be shorter.

Of course, such self-deception will certainly not be effective for a long time.

"Maha?"

Cold, breaking the dead silence in the living room, it was the immature voice of little Delphi with a slight doubt.

She does seem to remember the title. Even if it only vaguely felt familiar, she could see that she was standing there with Cathy on her thigh, tilting her little head and thinking hard.

But she was still too young after all, and she was naturally even smaller when she first met Maca. Even if she really remembered the name, no matter how clever she was, she couldn't match it to Maca's face.

However, everyone saw her as if they clearly knew that this name was very important to her, and while muttering "Maha Maha" to herself, they began to look left and right.

And this may just be an accidental state that is often seen in children, but it seems to touch the same place in the hearts of all present - yes! Where is Maca now? What the hell is he doing? Was he in danger?

The heavy concern and longing made everyone involuntarily purse their lips...... There was a sullen feeling that crept up from the depths of my heart.

At this moment, Willy looked at the little Delphi who was looking for a certain figure in a daze, and her heart moved slightly for no reason, as if she suddenly had a thought that surprised her a little.

"What if...... If she's really suitable. ”

……

Willy and the old butler stay in the Evacuee Community, which seems to be a small thing at the moment. Compared to the current chaotic situation, the most interesting but really difficult to know is obviously the development of the situation in Devonshire's Burrow.

In fact, after several days and nights, the alchemy array for protection arranged by Sarah in the Burrow has finally been completed.

"Are they all out?"

Sarah, who had come down from the attic after such a long and busy day, looked no different than she had been a few days ago, and there was not even a hint of exhaustion on her face.

And Hermione and the others, who were staying in the living room downstairs, could only shake their heads a little speechlessly when they saw her casually patting the scraps of materials on her hands and walking down in a relaxed posture as if she had just spent more than ten minutes repairing the heating pipes on it.

"Yes! In the past few days, the living corpses around seem to be getting more and more active again...... Oh, and that's what you should know. ”

"All I know is the situation in the north," Sarah said with a shrug as she walked over and sat down in an empty chair beside her, "You know that I don't have as many dolls as I did in Winchester, so I don't have the full picture." ”

"Well," Hermione said, looking down at the map he had spread out on the table, "Anyway, the number of living corpses in the east is increasing more clearly and regularly, and the activity is increasing day by day, I think...... There may be more important discoveries in the near future. For this reason, the route of exploration of Miss Gerofain and Monsieur Blois during the day was extended considerably. ”

"And," she said, gesturing at Weymouth, "Neville's Patronus has arrived in Weymouth this morning, after several failed attempts. In a few moments, the news should be delivered to Bill - only if the remaining mana was not used up during its flight across the Channel, of course. ”

Although there is no fog anymore, it is still impossible to carry out regular illusion shifting and long-distance magical communication in the British land. And even with the help of a spell like the Patronus that has an actual carrier, there will be a greater loss than other places.

It was already very difficult for Neville to use the advanced usage of this Patronus Charm created by Dumbledore, and it was even more difficult to withstand such a terrible spell casting environment.

Just like the previous attempts, the biggest failure was not that the lion Patronus was stopped by a flying corpse on the way, but that the mana consumption continued to accelerate along the way.

If the remaining mana in the Patronus depletes, let alone delivering the message, it will become impossible to even reach the destination.

"If that doesn't work, then let my alchemy puppet go!" Sarah waved her hand, "Of course, we'll have to figure out the cause of the anomaly of the living corpses you said." ”

With that, she turned her head again and looked at Delphi, who was sitting by the window.

"She sat there every day — I asked a few questions, but nothing came out." When Hermione saw her look over, she immediately leaned over to her and whispered.
