Chapter 173 The Assassination

Chapter 173 The Assassination

"It's really arrogant and domineering."

An ordinary-looking male wizard, when passing by this unremarkable wizard apartment hidden between Muggle apartment buildings, said with emotion on his face.

After all, he was just a British nobleman, but outside the house where he lived, there were actually two teams of French Auror guards.

Looking at those Aurors who pretended to be indifferent but actually raised their vigilance to the highest level, the wizard sneered.

Then swaggered past an Auror who covered his face with a newspaper and was wary of the surroundings in a coffee shop on one side.

Leaving Luke and the others behind in the apartment, the wizard waved his wand and disappeared directly in place.

The next moment, he appeared in a small forest.Not far away, there were three wizards standing there.One is a female wizard with a slender figure and a pretty face, with big red wavy hair spreading out behind her.Holding a small mirror in his hand, he was touching up his makeup.The other two were wizards, one sitting on a stump, playing with a wand that was about half the length of a normal wand in the future.Another one was lying on a thick branch, dozing off with eyes closed.

At the first moment when the ordinary-looking wizard appeared, although the three of them were still doing their own things, the red-haired witch seemed very dissatisfied with her makeup and rummaged through her bag for a new lipstick.The wand in the hand of the wand-wielding wizard seemed to have made a mistake and flew out. He glanced at the wizard who was disturbing him viciously, and then got up to pick up his wand.

The one who was lying on the tree and dozed off opened his eyes impatiently.After finding out that it was a normal-looking wizard who came back, he committed a crime directly.Supporting his head with his own hands, lying on his side on the branch, he smiled lazily and said, "You're back? How's the investigation going?"

As soon as he spoke, the witch took out her lipstick, and the wizard finally picked up his wand.

Seeing their reactions, the ordinary-looking wizard showed a satisfied smile.

"Your vigilance is much stronger than the Aurors."

As he spoke, he walked in the direction of the three of them.

"Okay, come here and have a meeting."

So the other two on the ground put away their things, while the one on the tree jumped down.

"How many Aurors are there?"

The wizard in the tree asked straight to the point.

"Two teams, not too many, but it doesn't make sense to count this."

Finding a tree stump to sit down, the ordinary-looking wizard shook his head and said, "Dumbledore is in that room."

So the scene fell into silence for a while.

After a while, the wizard with the wand tentatively asked, "So the plan is cancelled?"

As soon as these words came out, the scene became even quieter.Although I really want to refute, but there seems to be no reason to refute.Everyone gathered here, not to die.

But after a long time, the ordinary-looking wizard still shook his head and said, "You can't just give up so easily. It's a pity to give up like this after finally getting the news. And the leader over there has changed recently. This is the last message that man can deliver to us."

"If this opportunity is missed, we will either choose to withdraw from France completely, or we will really die slowly."

The lazy wizard lying on the tree nodded: "I definitely have to try it. But..."

The laziness in his eyes dissipated in an instant, and he stared at the ordinary-looking wizard with a pair of sharp eyes like knives.

"Since you dare to say it, Larco, you must have an idea."

Larco, that is, the ordinary-looking wizard, nodded and said: "Actually, there are relatively few ways that can be thought of. The first one is naturally to find the time when Dumbledore and that brat were separated, and then take advantage of this opportunity to surprise that kid." Kid. Make an assassination."

"If you implement this plan, it will be very simple."

"Vidal and Janna, you two are responsible for clearing those two teams of Aurors." Larco first pointed to the wand player and the witch, and then he pointed to himself and the lazy wizard, "Jens and I , responsible for breaking in and killing people."

The plan is simple, but quite practical.The other three people nodded. This level of difficulty is indeed not too difficult considering their strength.

But Jens still shook his head and said, "But it's too late."

As soon as Dumbledore and Luke Gaunt separated before, so many things happened immediately.Now, even if Dumbledore really had to leave in a hurry, that kid would probably follow Dumbledore closely.

After all, he is only an eleven or twelve-year-old child. After experiencing these things, it is already very good not to be scared, let alone thinking about leaving Dumbledore.

"That's right, that's the problem with this plan."

Larco said with a serious face: "The chance is very small. To be honest, if I were Dumbledore, I would not leave Luke Gaunt easily. Don't think that something like this happened to Dumbledore Just don't panic at all."

Of course Dumbledore panicked too.As long as he still chooses to play the game according to the rules, then he is doomed to struggle with those nobles.Because those nobles themselves are the rule makers.Dumbledore always saw himself as a man within the rules.This is his greatest weakness.

This is not his own statement, but the statement of the adult they admire.

When it comes to understanding Dumbledore, no one has a deeper understanding than that one.

"So our second plan is..." He looked at the three people around him mysteriously, "Take the initiative to lure Dumbledore away."

The scene fell into silence again.A crow fluttered its wings and landed on the branch of the tree where Jens was lying, looking curiously at the four people below.Afterwards, only Lin Taosheng seemed to be left in the woods.

And where the four of them sat around, they could quietly hear each other's breathing.

After a long time, Yanna showed a bored expression: "So we can only wait for the opportunity?"

"Hey, hey, at least listen to my plan!"

Larco looked helpless, and then he was about to talk about his plan.

But before he could speak, he was interrupted mercilessly by Jens stretching out a hand.

"Don't talk, Larco, put your plan in your heart first and then go through the two sides. The best result can be guessed by everyone. You don't need to say this. Think about your plan first. If there is a point that doesn't go well , what will be our end."

Larco didn't speak, but frowned and thought for a while.

After a while, he nodded and said, "I'm sure, even if something goes wrong in the plan, I'm sure I'll get you all out."

Hearing Larco's words, there was no joy on Jens's face, but even more helplessness.

"Why are you so persistent? The rest of us say that there are a lot less, but we really don't have much. Every old man is a precious treasure. We really can't afford to lose it."

"According to my thinking, it doesn't matter even if you choose to give up France. Our plan is already proceeding step by step..."

"The plan that has no chance of success at all?"

Larco interrupted Jens with a sarcastic tone.

"Wake up, Jens. The person who made this plan has other plans. Don't use the pie he drew to comfort yourself. How many years will it take if you follow their plan step by step?"

"Five years? Eight years? Ten years?"

"Time waits for no one, Jens."

Larco said in a tone almost heartbroken: "You want to ask me why I am so persistent? It's very simple!"

He reached into his pocket and took out an iron triangle, with a circle at the bottom of the middle and an iron rod in the center.

This is the hallmark of the Deathly Hallows.The triangular invisibility cloak, the round resurrection stone, and the long staff of the Elder Wand.

This was supposed to be a sacred sign.Because it symbolizes one of the oldest legends in the wizarding world.

But later, this logo seemed to become the logo of a certain person, and became exclusive to a certain organization.

Just like the name of this organization, at first it only represented people who believed in and pursued this legend, and later, it gradually became exclusive to this organization.

The name of this organization is 'Saints'.

The name of the man they were after was Gellert Grindelwald!

And their slogan...

"For the greater good!"

In the woods, four firm and fanatical voices sounded.

As if frightened by their fanatical voices, the crow that watched them uttered 'wow' twice, then flapped its wings again 'flapping' and flew away.Like the first domino, after it, countless crows took off one after another, and the messy crows rang through the sky.

The huge flock of crows covered the sky like dark clouds.

An old man who was walking his dog shook his head.

"These nasty crows! I don't know how they got together in such a small wood."

…………

The room was extremely quiet. Everyone looked at the little boy who looked eight or nine years old, and looked at him like a little adult, holding his chin with a calm and serious expression.

Dumbledore and Gemma looked as usual, drinking black tea and eating snacks, enjoying their afternoon tea peacefully.

For such a situation, they are no strangers to it.At this point, they can still take care of Luke as a child in some small things, but when it comes to big things, they have learned not to influence Luke's own thinking.

In other words, they themselves can't affect it.Just gave up the idea.

With a reserved smile on her face, Mrs. Maxim looked at the little boy in front of her with a calm face and a dark tide in her heart.

The little child in front of him can actually affect his position as principal to a considerable extent.Compared with other school directors who already had positions in France, she was really unfamiliar with Luke, the new big school director whose understanding was limited to legends, and she couldn't figure out whether he had a position or was purely neutral.

Unlike Hogwarts, Nicole Flamel and his wife are the main sponsors of Beauxbatons, and the opinions of the big school trustees have a major impact on the position of the headmaster.

And she's not as detached as Dumbledore.Although the visit in front of me was a bit abrupt, it was really a helpless move.

Beauxbatons has never been a monolith.

It is difficult for people who have not been in contact with Luke to understand such a contrast.He was obviously just a child, but he gave off a mature feeling from the beginning to the end.

Logically speaking, even if there is such a smart child, it would be difficult to be taken seriously under normal circumstances.Because first of all, someone must truly believe in this eleven or twelve-year-old child.But limited by the arrogance of adults, there must be a small number of people who can think like this.

But Luke has the qualifications that make people have to pay attention to him and listen to him.Because he has no elders above him.Moreover, the family's reputation is prominent enough, and there are enough bequests.

This is similar to Gan Luo.When Lu Buwei introduced Gan Luo to Qin Shihuang, the first sentence was.

"Do you still remember Gan Mao, the second in command of Prime Minister Zuo's bureaucracy? He has a grandson named Gan Luo. He is not very old, but he is from a famous family. All the princes know him."

Pretty much the same thing.

However, unlike Gan Luo, the power Luke has accumulated now is enough to make people value him.

Although it's just rubbing most of the leftovers together.But fortunately, the people in charge of these people are really their own people.Don't worry, no matter how short Luke's time is, there will always be five or six years.This time is enough.

On the other side, the Delacour family of four looked at the scene in front of them, feeling indescribably awkward.Madame Delacour and Mr. Delacour exchanged glances again, both of whom worked in the Ministry of Magic.It is natural to know how amazing the majesty that power can bring to people.

But the power holder in front of him is really too young.Surprisingly small.It's just a child who looks not much older than his little girl...

Fleur looked at the headmaster who acted like a subordinate in front of Luke, and didn't know what to say for a while.

It stands to reason that this gesture cannot be seen by students.But now Fleur is not just her student, but Luke's guest... a guest like her.

Mrs. Maxim has a strong personality, and she does not say anything else in school. Although she is polite to many people, she is only limited to the politeness she should have.

But now, it's not just a matter of politeness.

Why is this?

As soon as this question popped up in Fu Rong's mind, she gave an answer imitatively.

And at this moment, Luke, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.

He smiled and said, "Mrs. Maxim, I support you in principle to continue as Beauxbaton's principal."

Madam Maxim's face was not at all relaxed.Because she knew that the so-called principle means that there are conditions.

"So I still have something I'm not sure about, and I want to discuss it with you."

Luke's sincere smile gave off the feeling of a little fox.
