Chapter 119: Avada Kedavra

A few hours ago.

Tonks was sitting at the table in the Hog's Head Inn, eating 'clean' and 'hygienic' Aberforth's secret roast steak, while scolding Cyrus in her heart:

"Damn that Delis, left me to keep an eye on this goblin again!"

She'd never hated her Metamorphmagus powers as much as she did now.

"I also want to go out for a walk. I haven't been to Hogsmeade since graduation."

She angrily cut the steak with a knife and then stuffed it into her mouth with a greasy fork, and chewed it vigorously, as if what she was cutting was Cyrus' body and what she was eating was Cyrus' flesh and blood.

She planned to sneak out for a walk in the afternoon after finishing the meal. Anyway, the goblin stayed in the bar all day and never went anywhere, and Cyrus often didn't come back until evening.

But just as she was thinking this, another wizard who wrapped himself tightly opened the door and walked into the bar.

This kind of dress was not conspicuous in the Hog's Head Inn. The reason Tonks noticed him was because as soon as he entered the door, he immediately glanced around the bar and then walked towards the goblin very purposefully.

At this moment, Tonks was very energetic.

The newly appeared wizard was tall and thin. He sat opposite the goblin, ordered a glass of fire whisky, and said lightly: "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"Have you been waiting for a long time?" The goblin repeated the other party's greeting angrily.

Just listening to his voice, Tonks felt that there was a raging fire in the goblin's throat: "I've been waiting here for more than a month! You told me to 'wait a while' and you showed up now? If you don't plan to cooperate, then Just get out as soon as possible! But we will let you know the consequences of messing with us like this!"

"Don't be angry, sir." The new wizard chuckled softly. Although he lowered his voice, his tone was still arrogant. "It is very risky to cooperate with people of your status. We need to consider it carefully."

As he spoke, he paused, took a sip of whisky slowly, and then continued: "There are different voices in the organization. Most people think that there is no need to cooperate with you. After all, the treasure of the great goblin Lanlock has been mined for a long time. It has disappeared, and you people are too greedy."

Speaking of greed, he felt even more disgusted with the short partner in front of him.

"Are we greedy? It's you wizards who have taken over so many of our fairy treasures——"

"We provided the materials ourselves and paid for the build."

"The ownership of an item always belongs to its creator!" the goblin said through gritted teeth, so much so that even Tonks could imagine how ferocious his wrapped face looked.

"That's why I say you are greedy."

The ownership rights of the goblin treasures made with their own money do not belong to them. The goblins shamelessly asked for a large number of wands but did not get any of them. At this time, they did not mention the ownership issue.

'Hmph, if I take control of the Ministry of Magic, I will kill you all first. Gringotts is best left in the hands of the wizards themselves! '

However, the wizard did not continue to argue with the goblin. In the final analysis, they just wanted to use the goblins as a sword and intended to use them to chop down the bloated organization of the Ministry of Magic. They did not really intend to reach a friendly cooperative relationship with them.

Then, the wizard picked up his wand and waved it, and the sound of the conversation between the two of them became even quieter, as if there was an invisible glass cover covering their small space, and the sound coming from inside is like "buzzing".

Tonks was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Even her ears turned into rabbit ears unconsciously, but she couldn't hear clearly what they were talking about.

After a while, her eyes caught a glimpse of the two people standing up, and the atmosphere between the two parties did not seem to be as tense as it was at first. The tall wizard took the initiative to settle the bill with Aberforth, and then walked out of the Hog's Head Inn with the short goblin.

'Are they leaving? '

Tonks couldn't sit still and quickly took a big gulp of butterbeer to swallow the roasted pork ribs in her throat. She wiped the grease on her mouth with her sleeves and jumped up, rushing to the Inn's exit in two or three steps. In front of the door, she paused again with a troubled face and turned back.

"Damn Delis, this all happens when he is not here! But I still need to inform him!" She jumped to her feet, hurriedly wrote a line of words, and threw it in front of Aberforth behind the counter, "Bartender, bartender! Can I trouble you with a small thing? When my companion comes back, show him this!"

After saying that, she pushed the door open and walked out. The broken door of the Hog's Head Inn, which had been overwhelmed for a long time, shook violently back and forth, making a harsh "creak" sound, which made other customers in the bar shiver.

"Today's young lads, still so energetic after drinking this much..." An old wizard smiling with all his teeth shook off the goosebumps on his body, shook his head, and continued to read the new issue of "The Quibbler."

This newspaper is still interesting!

After Tonks left, Aberforth was silent for a moment and retreated into the kitchen. A faint silver light lit up and then flickered out like stars in the sky.

Cyrus cast a trace spell, and he could easily find Tonks' traces without the aid of any object. Among the sparkling golden particles, a row of clear footprints extended to a more remote path.

He quickly followed the footsteps, and his figure gradually disappeared among the green shrubs. Not long after he left, several black figures appeared from behind his back and followed Cyrus' footsteps towards the dense forest.

Each of these black figures holds a wand in their hands and is fully armed. They look like they are not just ordinary dark wizards, but an organized armed force.

Apparently, they had already targeted Cyrus and Tonks, as two "Aurors" from the Ministry of Magic.

Cyrus followed the footprints all the way to the end of the road. Here, the path forward was swallowed up by wilderness and time. Weeds and dead leaves buried the road, and the footprints stopped abruptly.

"Flying away, or disapparating?"

Cyrus waved his wand gracefully like a conductor, and the magic flashed back the scene here. The old image from a few hours ago appeared in front of Cyrus' eyes:

Two men in black robes, one tall and one short, walked all the way here. The tall and thin wizard dropped an old wand like a charity - it looked crudely made - and the goblin was also very dissatisfied with it, but didn't say much. 

"Go to the ruins." The tall and thin wizard said softly, and then his body was stretched out like a gummy candy, and he quickly swirled into a black spot.

*Snapped*

A green light pierced out of the black dot!

"Avada Kedavra!"
