Chapter 268 Chapter 262
The information provided by Reus forced Tonks to turn his attention to the two initial suspects. She looked through her previous tracking records. Although she repeatedly confirmed that there was nothing abnormal, the director obviously would not believe it.
she.
As a result, Tonks' workload increased. On the one hand, she had to continue to investigate Nick Williams' breakthrough, and on the other hand, she had to cooperate with Reus to avoid any handle so that the woman could take advantage of the problem.
.
Therefore, from the few days after this day, Tonks was quite busy and basically had no time to go back to the Ministry of Magic. He either acted with Reus or investigated it alone.
In addition to necessary sleep, she sometimes didn't even have to eat, but the result surprised her.
Not only did the two suspects not find any useful clues, but there was even a problem with Williams' breakthrough.
After wasting a few days, Tonks decided to continue to investigate Williams in depth, but after finally returning to the department the next day, she got the news that the other party had resigned two days ago.
When she arrived at Williams' home, she found that there was already empty houses, and no one knew where the people who lived here moved. Even other staff members of the werewolf registration office did not know that this person was like
It disappeared out of thin air.
The investigation reached a deadlock, but soon Tonks discovered something even more bizarre. The left-behind staff of Azkaban denied that Williams had visited with his signature document many times, and also found out that she should have been
The official documents secretly taken away about the release of the two wizards.
However, the content has been modified and the seal of the unified legal enforcement department is stamped. It is no different from other normal documents.
If the document had not been kept in her, Tonks would have been unable to help but doubt her memory, but it was obvious that her investigation these days had attracted the attention of those who were interested, perhaps it had been reported secretly, otherwise it would not have been possible suddenly
It was handled so cleanly.
But Tonks still felt strange. Except for Reus and Brooke, no one knew that she was investigating two dark wizards in the case that had been long been archived. Besides, it was fine at the beginning, why is it so sudden? Everything is related.
Blocked?
There is only one possibility that her good partner who suddenly changed sex has a ghost.
Although Nick Williams' line was broken, another line came to her door on its own initiative, and she could not miss this opportunity again.
Three days after meeting Brooke again, he discovered this. During this period, Tonks continued to team up with Reus to investigate. Although there was no result in the previous few days, this time it was as she said, the two people
The suspect seems to have some problems.
The two of them made an appointment at the bottom of the night in the broken cauldron bar, which was still open in the middle of the night. There were really no customers at this time. At first glance, they looked empty, only a few, but they were either lying on the table or lying on their backs on their chairs.
bunk.
Tonks, who arrived in advance, chose a corner that was undisturbed. She had changed her high-profile hair color and ordered a cup of coffee to refresh herself.
No matter what sound it made in the extremely quiet bar, it was particularly obvious. Even though it was more than twenty feet away, Tonks could still hear the snoring of the male witch who was sleeping.
It was fifteen minutes after Brooke arrived late, Tonks waved impatiently at the man standing in front of the bar and looking around. Until the other party came, she couldn't help but complain, "You're here."
It was really early.”
"Sorry, sorry, something has been delayed." Brooke apologized while waving his magic wand to set up a scoundrel around him.
Looking at the other person's smiley face, Tonks said even more unpleasantly, "Is that right? How do I remember that your job is not so busy that you need to go out in the middle of the night? Tell me, which girl have you been harassing again?"
"Hey!Hey!Hey! When did my image in your heart become so bad? What a harassing little girl, I'm doing serious things!" Brooke immediately put away his careless expression and retorted seriously with a stern face.
But Tonks, who knew this guy's personality, just shook his head on his own, "You have no image in me, Brooke, what mission can you do at 2:30 in the morning?"
"It's not that guy Winter, I've been cheated!"
Brooke stretched, as if he had remembered something, and suddenly frowned, "In order to accompany Miss Qiao, he threw me the rest of the interrogation work with the American Auror, all the prisoners Azkaban was in custody.
We have to review it all, do you think the workload can be completed in one day or two?"
"Interrogation of the prisoner of Azkaban?" Tonks expressed doubts.
He pinched his eyebrows, looking like a headache, "Yes! It is said that to trace the source, Azkaban was attacked several times, there must be some reason, so start with interrogating the prisoner, I think he is just
I just want to mess with us!"
"What is the purpose of the American Magic France sending Aurors here?" Tonks immediately grabbed the key point and asked.
But Brooke was silent for a moment and still didn't answer, "Sorry, Tonks, I can't tell you about this for the time being, but it's right to have something to do with the case you are investigating now."
Tonks didn't continue to ask, she just nodded, "That's probably you know, Nick Williams left quietly, I couldn't find him, this line was broken,"
"I heard that there is obviously something wrong with that boy disappearing so completely. They probably noticed it. But I think you have worked with your partner very happily recently, and the director mentioned it specially." Brooke raised his eyebrows and smiled.
road.
But Tonks was a little unhappy, she frowned, "She is happy, otherwise my investigation would not be interrupted so quickly. Except for you and Winter, she is the only one who knows it. She is telling me about her in disguise.
It has something to do with Umbridge.”
On the other hand, Brooke was not surprised at all, and even asked indifferently, "She is the one who walks through the back door, can you expect her to have no backstage?"
"Of course there is, but the current situation is complicated and they will definitely cover each other up. The longer the time goes, the less evidence it will be. It will be harder to investigate." Tonks picked up the cup and wanted to take a sip of coffee, but
When I looked up, I found that it was empty, and then I realized that I had finished drinking.
Brooke, who was sitting opposite, obviously noticed this. He got up and went to the bar to bring another cup and handed it over, and then spoke slowly, "I have learned a new word recently, called "just tricks", but in fact it's not too bad.
, Tonks, they are happy to see you in a deadlock and have no idea where to start. You can use this to make them relax their vigilance and hit the final blow."
After taking it, Tonks couldn't wait to take a sip before continuing, "Playing psychological tactics is not my style. Compared to psychological games, I prefer to face each other directly. Reus is exposed too quickly and sent someone to follow me.
She is a professional Auror, but she is still too young.”
"Oh~ It's not bad, full of energy." Brooke teased half-jokingly.
"Thanks to Winter, he reminded me, Brooke, you are worth it." Tonks praised without hesitation.
Brooke couldn't help but feel proud, "I've told you that according to strength, the first seat of the Legal Enforcement Department is more than enough to give him."
But when he thought about it, he immediately denied it, "No, this guy and his wife have gone sweetly. I will throw all the mess to me. When it is over, I must blackmail him!"
"It's almost done, Brooke, let's wait until the case is over."
Tonks glanced at him with disgust, then changed the subject and said, "I will continue to deal with that woman. Of course, I will investigate the attack on Miss Qiao on France and the attack on Miss Qiao on the night of the annual meeting. I hope
The result won't disappoint me too much."
Brooke just nodded, but suddenly laughed the next second, "I had a feeling that the results would be wonderful. After all, even if the mysterious man fell for more than ten years, the Ministry of Magic will be the same. Tonks, come to me in time if there are any difficulties."
"Don't worry, I have no psychological burden on you. Stay in touch at any time. It's time for me to leave. I can still have a sleep when I go back. Don't look for me after 12 o'clock in the future. I'll leave." Tonks immediately stood up after saying that.
, left the bar without looking back.
But Brooke was still sitting there, not having any intention of leaving. It was not until half a minute later that the nearest table, the witch who was sleeping on her lying on her face suddenly stood up, got up and sat down opposite him, and he spoke, "I say you Americans."
Do you all like to act in the middle of the night?”
However, the other party ignored him at all, took out a small notebook and a pen and started recording. At the end, he suddenly said, "Each person does his own job, Mr. Brooke, and you must understand that you are both Auror."
But Brooke seemed to have lost interest in argument, and he said bluntly, "Okay! You're going to say whatever you say. Since I've got the information you want, I'll withdraw it first. It's so tiring that night."
As a result, he just took a step out and was stopped by the other party, "Please stay, Mr. Brooke, just Nifadora Tonks, I still have a few questions that you need to answer, please cooperate with my work."
Brooke, forced to stop, turned around impatiently, "Roger Smith, are you finished? What does she have to do with this case?"
Auror, known as Smith, still remained calm, "It was indeed okay before this, but from the conversation between the two, I think this Auror will become an indispensable part, and although the orders I received
He obeyed Mr. Winter's order, but the work he should do cannot be ignored."
When Brooke hesitated for a while, he finally sat back like a deflated ball, "Okay, if you want to know, ask what you want, I'll stay with you today!"
...
These days are quite happy for Hedy. Although the daily course schedule has not been reduced and there are a lot of homework, a certain Dark King doesn’t have to go on a business trip and can have dinner together and stay with her at night. I’m so happy.
There is only one thing that Brooke's frequency of free meals has increased, which is not that Hetty is not welcome, but that she wants more time in the two-person world.
Especially when they seem to be very busy recently, Hetty certainly doesn't know what happened in the Ministry of Magic, and a certain Dark King would not take the initiative to mention it. She was busy acting coquettishly to him and didn't remember this.
Until Friday that day, a certain dark demon king worked overtime for the first time. He did not tell her in advance, and did not contact her with a double-sided mirror.
After waiting for almost an hour, she was struggling and determined to go to the Ministry of Magic to surprise him and pick him up from get off work!
After asking Stock to send her to the reception hall of the Ministry of Magic, she asked the tutor to go back first. Anyway, she has been here more than once, so she is familiar with it.
After being taken to a lounge on the second floor, Hetty went out to find the office where her man was. She knocked on the door but no one responded. When she opened it, she saw that there were still several documents that had been processed on the desk.
There is also a cup of black tea that I drank halfway, but there is no one there.
She simply went in and waited, but after sitting down, she suddenly realized that the second floor today was not as lively as before. But it was right to think about it. It was all over the get off work time, and other departments probably had all been exposed. They are working overtime here.
The famous Dark King actually has to work overtime. If Dumbledore finds out, he might think that the sun has come out from the west, so he would not have to rush to the Ministry of Magic to observe it first?
Bored and waiting for a while, Hedy was already lying on the sofa and tossing and turning. Before her own man came back, she had some trouble and decided to go out for a walk.
But when she just opened the door, she heard a roar. Although it was a little far away, she was sure that it was coming from the left, and it was the direction of the Auror's office.
So she immediately ran over and the distance was closer, and she realized that it was a woman scolding her, with a stern and high voice, just like the scene where no one did well in the monthly exam before, and the teacher got angry on the podium.
Before she arrived, everyone except this female voice spoke. She thought that the Auror was scolded by her superiors because she had not completed the task. As a result, when she saw with her own eyes, the woman standing in front of her was a spitting star.
She had met the Director of the Legal Enforcement Division before,
Chapter completed!
