Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

In Godric's Hollow, in the villa, Mike is listening to Papi's report.

After Raven Papi finished telling what Victor had done in the past two days, a faint smile appeared on Mike's face.

This Victor is a bit interesting.

He really thinks this Victor is quite good.

First of all, his temperament is very suitable for Mike. Mike knows very well what kind of talents he needs. What he needs is the kind of ruthless person who has a bottom line, but that bottom line is quite low.

Because as his career develops, he will definitely be exposed to more and more dirty things. At that time, those so-called gentlemen will not be able to get along with him.

This is also the reason why he thinks so highly of Hermione but does not admit her into Freemasonry.

Hermione is a standard white leftist, a relatively extreme one. This kind of person will definitely have ideological disputes with him in the future, and there may even be betrayal.

Secondly, Mike is very optimistic about Victor's fighting talent.

It can be seen that Victor's magic talent is not outstanding, it is only at the level of a normal person.

The magic power in his body is far less than that of Mike, and he cannot use the fire spell as a regular combat spell like a genius like Mike, but he has developed many fighting methods that consume very little magic power.

Bubble head spell, floating spell.

What a creative idea!

Mike even felt that compared to himself, Victor was a real wizard, a person who really used his brain to fight.

Who said you can't kill someone without a gun?

Those seemingly low-energy daily magic spells and auxiliary magic spells can also become murderous weapons as long as they are used well!

Mike found a lot of inspiration in Victor.

However, he is still too young and has too little experience.

Although Victor replaced the wand to avoid Brown Silk's tracking, an entire village was destroyed. Such a big thing cannot be hidden from the Ministry of Magic.

Presumably the Ministry of Magic will find him soon.

Mike was hesitant whether he should use his connections to help Victor. After all, he was very optimistic about this young man with the same hair color as himself.

But after careful consideration, he decided to wait and see how things progressed first.

In this way, we can not only see Victor's reaction when faced with this kind of thing, but also maximize the benefits.

After all, what is the saying in China?

By the way, providing icing on the cake is worse than providing help when needed!

After making the decision, the smile on Mike's face became even brighter. He twisted his body and changed his sitting position, and asked Papi:

"So what's going on with Benjamin? I remember there are a total of 8 people there, right?"

‘You mean those losers? They haven't even found a single hair yet! ’

Raven Papi's tone was a bit sarcastic, which made Mike frown.

He was also very optimistic about Benjamin, so he couldn't help but continue to ask:

"What happened? Where did they go?"

‘EastEnders! These idiots! Quack, quack, quack! ’

Mike understood instantly. It was no wonder that Benjamin and the others had gained nothing these days. Although the East End of London was relatively poor and many people called it a slum, it still belonged to London after all.

There may be some extraordinary creatures doing whatever they want in other first-tier cities, but there are really not many extraordinary creatures within the city of London. Even if there are, they are big monsters with super strength and maximum concealment skills. It would be impossible for Benjamin and the others to find him.

After all, the Ministry of Magic is located underground in London!

Many important wizarding buildings such as the Leaky Cauldron and Nine and Three-Quarters Station are also in London!

It would be really boring if a supernatural being without eyes dared to mess around in the city of London.

Shaking his head, Mike closed his eyes and buried himself in the soft sofa to take a nap.

He originally thought that Benjamin, a guy with some brains, could try to cultivate it.

But now it seems that even the wrong hunting ground can be chosen, and it is nothing more than that...

At the same time, Benjamin in an old apartment in London's East End was experiencing self-doubt.

A group of them had been at this place for several days.

In the past few days, all of them have been investigating this area step by step according to the original plan, but despite their efforts, they still found nothing.

The East End of London, the slums of London since ancient times, is the most dangerous place in London in the fog described by Conan Doyle.

It is close to the docks, and most of the residents are poor people who were born as coolies and various immigrants. Although the East End of London has gradually taken off its slum label with the development of the economy in recent years, all kinds of drugs, gangs and gangs are still everywhere. visible.

All in all, although the economy of this area has developed, the quality of the people has remained the same.

This is a dark place in London, where countless shady people and things gather.

Logically speaking, there should be a lot of dark magical creatures hiding here. This is how it is shown in comics and TV. Why did you find nothing when you got here?

Benjamin scratched his hair in annoyance. The lack of success for several days had greatly damaged their confidence, and even his prestige as the captain was damaged.

These problems troubled Benjamin, and he even felt that his hairline had started to move back in the past few days.

A loud sound of "touch!" woke Benjamin up. It was the sound of the old wooden door colliding with the wall.

When Benjamin heard the news, he saw a white young man with short brown hair holding the door frame and breathing heavily.

"We found... something supernatural!"

The young man's face was flushed, and it was obvious that he was very excited.

However, Benjamin's reaction was very indifferent.

No way, he had heard too many similar news in the past few days. At first, they would excitedly go over to check, but after investigation, they found that these so-called supernatural phenomena were all hallucinations caused by eating too many poisonous insects. .

But as a captain, you still need to have the attitude you should have. Benjamin straightened his messed up hair and said expressionlessly: "Oh? What kind of supernatural phenomenon is it?"

"It's a child. People nearby say that the child is possessed by the devil!" said the young man. "This legend has been circulating for a long time. Even if it is exaggerated, there must be something wrong with the child!"

"Really? Then call the others over and let's go take a look together."

…

Half an hour later, the team members who had been scattered in various areas to inquire about information rushed back. After Benjamin gave a rough introduction to the situation, he gave the order to set off.

It can be seen that the mood of the team members is not very high. They have held such gatherings many times in the past few days, but in the end they all achieved nothing, which made them very frustrated.

Especially those girls, the resentment in their hearts has almost reached a certain point. Some of them have even publicly said that they will go home if there is no gain this week.

After all, they also gained nothing, so why should they stay here and suffer?

Benjamin was not surprised by this. He also understood these girls, because the environment here was too harsh for young ladies like them.

Dirty toilets, noise at night, bad food, molestations and attacks by street gangsters and homeless people...

If they were not wizards with extraordinary powers, they would have been robbed long ago, right?

He couldn't bear these experiences, let alone the girls?

But no matter what, work still has to be done.

A group of eight people were walking on the street. This was a relatively prosperous street in the East End of London, so there were many pedestrians on the street and the security was pretty good.

Although idle gangsters and homeless people can still be seen everywhere on the streets, probably because it was daytime, these people did not do anything extraordinary.

At most, he just kept looking back and forth at a few girls.

Most of these gangsters are black and young.

As mentioned before, the largest number of immigrants in East London are immigrants, and the largest number of immigrants are black people.

There are both legal and illegal ones, and these black people come from all over the world. Some of them are second- or even third-generation immigrants who were born in the UK.

But many of them have one thing in common, that is, they have nothing to do and rely on the British good welfare system to live on subsistence allowances.

If that's all, forget it. After all, the British government has a big business, so raising such idle people is considered a good deed.

But people can't be idle. When they are idle, they will think about other things.

For example, brand-name clothes, women, etc.

What's more, because life is so boring, he still smokes drugs.

And if you want to continue living like this, you need money, and you need far more money than the government's subsistence allowance.

So, the crime started.

Benjamin does not think he is a racist. He even admires some black people, such as Michael Jackson and Jordan. These people are all very outstanding people. However, after actually coming into contact with these low-level black people, he began to doubt his own ideas. .

He understands that every country and every nation will produce some scumbags. This is a matter of probability and cannot be avoided.

Just because the bad behavior of a few people doesn't mean that they should all be labeled the same.

But the probability of scumbags among the black race seems to be too high.

Those girls must have felt this deeply, because nine out of ten people who harassed them in the past few days have dark skin.

After experiencing so many things, Benjamin felt very regretful when he thought about how he had donated money to poor areas in Africa when he was in elementary school.

I heard that people there even eat the grain used as seeds!

Compared with them, Asians are normal and good immigrants, especially Chinese people.

They work hard, endure hardships and endure hardships, and keep their integrity. At the same time, their adaptability is also amazing, which can be seen from the Chinese restaurants and various Chinese supermarkets that can be seen everywhere here.

Of course, they are not easy to bully.

I heard that overseas newspapers often say that Chinese people will be bullied abroad, which is very pitiful.

Benjamin scoffed.

Are you kidding? People who can survive in the East District, where the law and order are extremely poor, will be easy to bully?

Benjamin didn't know how the Chinese were living in other places, and how they were bullied, but at least here, most Chinese were ruthless.

Benjamin thought as he walked, and soon came to a relatively remote area.

Compared with the bustling street before, this place perfectly matched the image of a slum in Benjamin's impression.

Low, dilapidated and haphazardly built illegal buildings, flowing sewage, stray dogs everywhere, and homeless people with sallow complexions and thin skin, who look like old poisonous insects at first glance.

All this made Benjamin and others frown deeply.

And the people here are obviously bolder. Benjamin can clearly feel that more malicious eyes are being cast on them.

Some homeless people were even naked and followed them with malicious intentions.

The few girls in the team felt this even more deeply. The fiery and almost cannibalistic gazes of those people made them unconsciously lift their collars to cover their exposed white necks.

"This is a drug den. The people here are either drug addicts or drug dealers. I heard that 30% of the drugs in London come from here."

Benjamin nodded and said to the young man who explained to him:

"What about the child you are talking about? Is he also a poisonous insect?"

"No, that kid has no money to buy that thing, and because of the legend about him, no boring person is willing to give it to him. Oh, we're here, he's right in front."

After the young man said that, he pointed to a deep alley. When Benjamin and others looked there, they saw several people lying in the box, and a child with messy hair and wearing a thin and worn sweatshirt was squatting. That.

This child is very thin and looks like he is only seven or eight years old. Moreover, his body was covered with various stains, and Benjamin and others could not tell his gender at all.

"Are those people dead?"

"No.."

Benjamin answered the question of a girl next to him expressionlessly, and then took the lead and started walking towards the alley.

There were men and women in the alley, but most of them were sallow, thin, and extremely slovenly.

Obviously they didn't find Benjamin and others at all.

Looking at the man and woman, Benjamin suddenly remembered one he had seen.

Thinking like this, and then looking at the skinny man in front of him who looked so funny like an emotionless machine, Benjamin suddenly laughed out loud.

Under the strange gazes of his teammates, Benjamin quickly stopped laughing. It was really inappropriate to laugh in such a serious scene.

Benjamin continued to move towards the child, and the child did not seem to notice him.

But what surprised Benjamin was that as he got closer and closer to the child, the surrounding temperature gradually dropped.

At first he thought it might be because of the dampness and darkness in the alley that the temperature inside was relatively low, but as he got closer and closer to the child.

He was surprised to find that the source of that cold feeling was actually that child!

Benjamin's breathing began to become heavier, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised in ecstasy.

He knew that this time they really encountered a supernatural creature!
