Chapter 1032

"... still can't! Sure enough, can't you find the magic node at that time?"

Slowly flying out of the cave leading to somewhere underground, Maka frowned and thought about it for a moment. Finally, she shook her head reluctantly.

He wanted to return to the black-and-white space, of course, there was no reason. Because no matter what you think, there must be a very important clue hidden there.

But once he got out of trouble, he would never find his way back.

"Cough... Why don't you go somewhere else?" it was probably because Maka was a little bored. The windbreaker wizard who came out behind him hesitated.

Maka heard the speech, but soon waved her hand.

"No," he said, "if I could find it by perception, I should have found it when I first tried it half a month ago. I still can't find it now, which means that the method of pure search is wrong..."

At that time, in order to get out of trouble, he used spiders to build a huge magic web. After that, he tried to find it again in the same way.

However, it is obvious that even if he had even included the position below the ground into the scope of inductive exploration, he still failed to gain anything.

The magic node must exist, otherwise Haier Bo can't get in. But this time, he must have completely covered up the node.

Even for Maka, it's not very difficult to find it again.

"Let's go! Forget it today. Let me think about it again!"

In fact, it's already afternoon.

From this morning, Marca took her to the Ministry of magic. After chatting with scrimger about the current situation of the British magic world, he went to black's old house to get a thick material.

Those documents are all information about the Muggle world and the British magic world, which are sorted out by montangus and their intelligence traffickers.

Then, from the morning when she came out of the old house until she came here to investigate the magic node, Maka has been running around the UK according to some special information in the data.

From the coast to the inland, from the city to the countryside, and even went for a walk around some Muggle farms in the wilderness several times.

That is to say, Britain is not very big. In addition, Maka is just taking a walk. Otherwise, I'm afraid I can't even finish half of the day.

It can be seen that Maka did this only to personally examine the general situation of the whole UK, including the magic world and the Muggle world.

However, knowing that Haier Bo will never give up, there is still no harvest today - the so-called waste of time probably means this?

Seeing Maka gently waving his hand and moving on, the windbreaker wizard couldn't help asking:

"Where are you going next? Yes... Cough, do you want to continue the inspection?"

"Hmm?" Maka stopped, then shook her head and said, "Oh no, that's all for today's' stroll '- it must be boring to walk around with me? Don't come with me tomorrow. Isn't it good to go to class with Luna and them?"

"No, it's not boring at all," said the windbreaker immediately. "Really... If there's no problem, let me follow tomorrow!"

"Really?"

"Yes!"

Although she knew that Maka would be puzzled by what she insisted on following, it was not something that could be explained. So she just nodded.

"That means it's time to go back to Hogwarts today?"

"Yes, that's right." Maka said, "I thought it would take more time, but actually it's faster than expected..."

He was talking, but then shrugged and said:

"Of course, before we go back, let's solve the lunch problem first! I'm sorry, it's already afternoon... Are you hungry long ago?"

"No, it's OK. It's good to have something to eat every day..."

As soon as this was said, the windbreaker felt a little regretful - she should have paid more attention to her mouth.

However, as for some information implied in the casual words of the windbreaker wizard, Maka only regarded it as that she didn't notice at all. He walked forward a little lazily as before, without even looking back.

The windbreaker quickly took two steps, followed Maka again, and returned to the nearby Muggle town.

"There's a pub run by a wizard, in a corner of this Muggle street," Marca said as she walked down the street. "The owner of that pub is also a graduate of Hogwarts. Sirius mentioned to me last time --"

The streets of this Muggle town are sparsely populated. They walked forward again. After a while, Maka saw a coffee shop with a slight concave in.

The wooden grill windows and old shop doors, as well as the strange signs nailed with old boards, seem to have a feeling that people want to go in and find out.

"... upside down tavern?"

"Well," said Maka casually, "a card in a Muggle card game. Muggles use them for divination. Of course, if you want to be accurate, you have to rely on luck..."

With that, he reached out and opened the door with a "squeak" and walked in gently.

"Ding Ling."

"Welcome, two guests."

As soon as she entered the door, Maka heard an old man's voice nearby. He turned his head and saw a portrait hanging on the wall at the door.

"Oh, hello..." he looked at the nameplate below, and then continued, "Mrs. gramman."

"Hello, young guest," said the old woman in the portrait, squinting. "Please sit down and Ted will come with his menu - of course, you can order from me, and I'll tell ted in the kitchen."

"Don't bother you," Marca said with a smile. "We're not in a hurry. Just wait!"

With that, he turned and walked inside.

As you can see, this is an old tavern with simple decoration.

Many places are decorated with wood inlays, but the decorations that should have been very exquisite have changed since they have been wiped for many years. It seems that they are no longer the original feeling.

Probably because it's not a meal right now, there are only two or three guests in the tavern, and most of them are drinking alone.

Soon after they sat down at the painted table, a man of more than 30 came out of the small tavern.

"Sorry, actually I heard it just now, but I still have some work on hand, so I wiped my hands first... Didn't you keep you waiting?"

"It's all right!" Maka waved her hand and then rushed to the opposite road. "You can have some! Watch what you want to eat."

After asking the boss to give the menu to the windbreaker wizard, Maka said to the boss again:

"It was Sirius Black who told me about you here. He said if I wanted to know something about this neighborhood, I could ask you?"

Hearing this, the windbreaker wizard sitting on the other side couldn't help saying "sure enough" - Marca would choose here for no reason.

Because the previous node is located near the town, it is undoubtedly a very natural thing to come here to inquire about intelligence.

However, even Maka, who can sense magic, can't find the magic node. Can such a tavern owner know?

"Oh, Sirius?" the boss named Ted immediately smiled. "No problem - ask what you want! If I hear anything, of course I can tell you!"

"No, on the contrary, I want to hear what you know," said Maka. "Anything is good. If anything strange happens around here, you can say..."

"Strange things?" the boss tilted his head and said, "it's such a Muggle town. It's plain all day. What strange things can there be..."

After thinking carefully, he replied:

"If you really want to say, that was the terrible disaster some time ago... Although it happened in downtown London, you can see it from here. At that time, I almost rolled up my bedding and ran away!"

Although this town also belongs to London, it is already a "suburb of the suburbs". The disaster from London did not spread here from beginning to end.

However, you can understand from what the boss said that it was definitely a terrible disaster for ordinary wizards and civilians.

"Well, yes!" Maka nodded. "Is there any special situation here at that time - for example, has there been a magic spell such as expelling Muggle curse in some places around the town?"

"Banish Muggle curse?" the boss recalled his words, but finally shook his head. "You can see that there are fewer residents in this place - fewer Muggles and fewer wizards. Compared with the place around the town, it's big..."

Although the other party didn't finish, Maka could understand the meaning.

However, he just wanted to take a chance.

Although he felt that as long as halbo had done something here, in order to ensure everything, he would inevitably prevent Muggles from approaching almost everywhere in today's era. But with such a little thought, trying to find any clues is like hitting luck.

The inquiry was fruitless. Seeing that the windbreaker wizard had ordered today's late lunch, Maka put aside these incidental things for the time being.

"Boss, I'm all right here!" he said. "I heard that the boss was also born in Hufflepuff, but I'm looking forward to your cooking!"

"Of course! That's my ability to eat. Guests, wait a minute, you'll be right back..."

"Ah!"

Cold, the boss seemed to remember something, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
