Chapter 1743: A Shadow in the Ruins
Safina has been waiting for nearly a week near Fort Blois, France, and the French people who look out the window every day come and go, come and go, and naturally they will be tired if they see too much.
Of course, compared to her who only glanced at her from time to time, let alone those black-robed subordinates who were arranged to be divided into three shifts and rotate constantly.
At the end of the week, almost everyone had tiredness on their faces.
Now that it's evening again, you can see that the square in front of the ruins of the castle outside is gradually becoming less and less crowded, and the Muggle construction team that had been building scaffolding and fences in the ruins has long since stopped working and left. The group of black-robed wizards who were watching and searching in front of this window couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief because of the reduction in their "workload".
Safina, who was sitting casually flipping through Muggle magazines, saw the golden sunset outside the window, so she finally got up and walked to the window to take a look.
"Another day has passed."
Of course she believed Ursula's words, and her sister said that if she could wait for Maca McLean here, then the other party would appear sooner or later. But the time that can only be waited here is a bit difficult for her as a young girl.
At this time, I saw her looking at the sunset outside the window, and she was a little distracted, but because of the mask covering, no one knew what kind of expression she had on her face at this moment.
It wasn't long before the dazzling sunset finally faded with the sunset, and the night covered the sky with blackness, and Safina withdrew her gaze with a little loss.
But just as she was about to sit back in the chair on the side, there was a sudden and regular knock at the door, which made her pause when she was about to sit down.
It's your own people.
Safina hurriedly put away her thoughts, waved her hand and signaled:
"Go open the door."
Before the words fell, the two black-robed subordinates who were resting and preparing to take over the shift hurriedly got up and walked towards the door, and soon led a wizard who was also dressed in black robes back.
"Miss," as soon as the other party came over, he immediately greeted Safina quite respectfully, and then said, "The organization received an urgent report that the Norwegian palace had been attacked during the day, and because the other party did not leave any living mouth, the specific situation is not clear for the time being...... The Prophet told me to tell Miss that she should be careful here. โ
"The Norwegian Palace?"
Safina's brow furrowed under the mask when she heard this. She didn't speak immediately, but after thinking about it carefully, she said slowly:
"The old wizard named Davidson has been brought back to the Order, right? That...... What about the British prince this time? Also dead? โ
"It's not clear," the other shook his head, "and when I came out, it seemed that the Prophet was about to send someone to the palace to check the detailsโit might be a little while. โ
"Well," Safina thought as she nodded, "I think the organization should be more wary than mine!" Go back! Help me bring a word for Ursula as well, maybe the other party is aiming for that ...... Well, forget it, she's so smart, she must have thought of everything I could think of a long time ago. โ
Seeing Safina say this, the black-robed wizard saluted again:
"Then, Miss, I'll ......"
However, before she could finish speaking, Safina heard one of her men by the window suddenly staring at the window and speaking without looking back:
"Miss, there's a discovery! Look at that man, is he-"
I've been waiting for this for a week, and I've finally found out, where can Safina still care about talking to people?
Seeing her, she immediately turned and went to the window, and looked at the square not far downstairs. Seeing that there was no one in the square, she hurriedly expanded her field of vision and glanced around.
Then, she finally saw a not-so-tall figure in the ruins that had been surrounded by Muggle construction teams.
Yes, it's quite suspicious to go around the ruins at this time. It's just that the scaffolding has been erected for the building that has not yet completely collapsed, and it is already night, so it is difficult for her to distinguish the person's appearance in the ruins.
What's more, she has never really met Maca herself, even if there is information collected in the organization, but she is not familiar with the other party at all.
While Safina was recalling the photo of Maca in the document and comparing it with the man in the ruins as much as possible, the subordinate on the side couldn't help but whisper:
"Miss, shall we just go and get in touch with each other?"
Truth be told, Safina actually wanted to veto the proposal. Not to mention that she has been wary of Maca from the beginning, and it is not even clear whether the other party is the "Maca McLean".
If that person was actually one of Helbo's men, wouldn't it be too dangerous for her to expose their existence now?
However, when she thought that her sister Ursula said that this was probably the only chance to communicate with that McKellen, Safina, who was worried that the other party would leave at any time, still bit her silver teeth and nodded.
After all, she didn't know what Maca had come back to Fort Blois for.
"Let's go and meet with someone first...... Remember not to use any spells, use the past. โ
As Safina spoke, a pair of eyes in the mask's hole remained fixed on the figure in the ruins, not looking away for a moment.
But she didn't expect that before her subordinates could act according to their words, the figure standing between the ruins and the broken wall suddenly turned his head and looked up accurately at Safina's gaze.
At that moment, Safina couldn't help but be shocked - although the other party was far away, those eyes were still eye-catching in the shadows of the night. Even though she couldn't see the other party's face clearly, the pair of deep eyes immediately came into her mind, making her suddenly palpitate.
Although the other party quickly looked away, and even many of her subordinates around her thought it was just a coincidence, Safina came back to her senses and found that a layer of cold sweat had oozed from her back.
"Wait," she said with some difficulty, "I'll go myself...... All of you stay here and don't move. โ
As soon as she finished speaking, Safina opened the window wide, and the night breeze poured in through it, causing her sideburns to sway gently.
The cool breeze calmed her mind a little, and after a little calm, she jumped over the windowsill and jumped directly from the top floor of the apartment building while pulling out her wand.
"Didn't Miss say don't use spells? How did sheโ"
"Because...... We're afraid we've already been discovered by each other. โ
