256. Hold on for a moment and check the map

Bock was stunned, and his voice became even deeper, "What the hell do you want to say?" ”

"You don't have to worry about this map, Mr. Bock." Scott said in a cold tone, "It will belong to Miss Slytherin." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Of course. ”

The tone of Bock's voice changed instantly.

"There's no doubt about it," he said, "that I sought out that map for the esteemed lady of Slytherin!" ”

Surely Scott wouldn't be naΓ―ve enough to think that just these few words would scare Bogin? Bork.

But he was also relieved at this point, because he was sure, Bokin? Bock's action was not at Medea's behest.

In this case, there is still room for manipulation in this matter.

Scott continued to say in a cold tone, "You know best what you think, Mr. Bock. I recommend that you withdraw your hand that is too long, otherwise it will hurt if you have your arm cut off. ”

He listened to the heavy breathing coming from the flames of the small fireplace, and continued: "Of course, stretching your arms too long will also make it easy for people to find their way to the nest. ”

"I'll confirm this with Miss Slytherin." Bock gasped and said as if he was.

"Of course." Scott deliberately said in a nonchalant tone, "If you had the guts to do that, I would be impressed with you." ”

"You ......"

Bock gasped a few more times.

But he is still a businessman after all, and although he is angry, he can quickly become smooth again.

His tone quickly turned respectful, "Your honorable guest, it seems that your purpose is not as simple as stopping my actions. ”

Scott smiled slightly, and continued to speak to portray himself as fearless, "Mr. Bock, if you had been kind, of course I wouldn't have mentioned in front of Ms. Slytherin what you've been doing lately. ”

In order to further win the letter of Bojin? Bock, Scott is starting to rip off.

Bock immediately understood what he meant, and he said in an exaggerated tone: "Oh! Of course! Most English wizards know that Bokin? Bock is the friendliest old man in Tumbledown Alley, and he will never skimp on his friendliness. ”

Scott smiled and said, "That's great, I'll be visiting you soon, Mr. Bock." ”

"Welcome, I will welcome you with my friendliness, distinguished guest." Bogin? Bock said in an expectant tone.

"Goodbye, then, Mr. Bock." Scott said.

"See you soon," Bock said, "and look forward to the day when you come to visit." ”

Scott held out his finger and closed the door to the small fireplace.

He put the small fireplace and the box of Floo powder into a cardboard box, and then into a shape-shifting lizard skin bag.

After doing this, he spat out the candy in his mouth, got up and walked to the balcony, looked up at the moon in the sky, and let out a long breath.

After the call, Bokin? Bock has been held steady by him for the time being.

But that didn't keep the dark wizard scared for long.

If he hadn't actually visited him recently, Bock would have known that "Number 37" was just cheating on him.

And if Scott wants to keep the Lacey map, all he has to do is try to find a way to get rid of him completely while Bock is still jealous.

If it can't be solved, it's not too late to hand over the map to Medea.

Provided, of course, that Medea did not know about it.

Scott fell into deep thought.

First of all, Shafiq will definitely report Scott's call to Medea.

But Scott only asked Shafiq about Bock's small fireplace number, and did not reveal anything else.

Second, Scott was sure that Bock would not ask Medea for the time being.

The reason is simple –

Once Bock asks Medea for confirmation, it means that the map of Lacey is really out of his favor.

Bock only had to wait a few days, and once he confirmed that what "Number 37" said was a lie, he could make another robbery.

Tuk, tuk.

There was a knock on the door.

"Please come in!"

Scott looked back at the door of the room, and Emilia pushed it open and walked in.

"Scott."

Emilia walked out onto the balcony and looked at Scott with concern, "Are you alright, son?" ”

Scott smiled, "I'm fine, Mom. ”

"You don't look good." Emilia raised her hand and pinched Scott's face, "The smile is a little ugly." ”

"Well, I'm in a bad mood." Scott sat down in his chair.

Emilia sat down in another chair, "You don't have to, dear, we don't have to worry about what is destined to be kept. ”

Scott nodded casually, "Can I look at that map now, dear mother?" ”

He put his hand on the small round table, "while it hasn't been sent out yet." ”

"Of course, you can watch it." Emilia nodded.

"Mike!"

She yelled at the balcony next door.

"I'll be over soon, darling." Michael answered.

Soon, he walked into Scott's room with a lady's bag and handed it to Emilia.

"The map is in this bag?" Scott looked at the old bag in Amilia's hand with some surprise.

He remembered that Emilia had the bag for as long as he could remember, and still carried it on her back often.

"Yes." Emilia touched the bag in her hand with a nostalgic expression, "This bag is also a gift from my grandfather. ”

After saying that, she opened the bag, took out a knife from the bag, and decisively cut the skin of the backpack.

"Yes, that map is hidden in the compartment of the skin of this backpack."

She said as she pulled out a yellowed piece of parchment from the mezzanine.

"Seriously, Caleb and I both looked at this map when we were kids and didn't think there was anything magical about it."

She handed Scott the parchment in her hand.

Scott took the parchment and spread it out on the table.

The map shows the topography of North and South America, West Africa, and Antarctica.

It's exactly the same as the rubbing copy of the Lacey map that Scott once saw.

"It looks pretty ordinary."

Scott touched the parchment with his hand, not sensing anything unusual.

He tried to output some magic again, and the lines and patterns drawn on the map did not move.

"If what my great-grandfather said is true, then I'm afraid this map needs a secret order to show its true face." Scott said.

"My grandfather spent the rest of his life studying this map, but he never got it moving." Emilia said unconcernedly, "Maybe it's just a rumor." ”

"Maybe the magic of this map is simply that someone made a map of Antarctica in the early 18th century?" Michael also took a closer look.

But it also shows the interior of Antarctica...... Mountains, peaks, rivers and coasts, all under the snow and ice. Emilia said.

"While it's generally accepted that Antarctica wasn't discovered until the early 19th century, it makes sense if wizards discovered Antarctica 6,000 years ago, before it was covered in snow and ice," Michael said. ”
