Chapter 2439

Ten years ago, New York was bustling, full of lights, wine and exaggeration; Ten years ago, New York was also crazy, with sewage and decadence everywhere.

Perhaps just a street away, the so-called "upper class" and more "out of class" seem to have a clear boundary.

Huddled in the pile of waste paper shells, it is by no means rare to look up at the nearby high-rise buildings while smelling the stench from the gutter.

When a lot of dollars are intertwined with the tramps everywhere, absurdity is no longer the imagination that can appear in the writer's pen, but the reality in front of us.

In the depths of such a crazy and absurd City, at that time, the American magic world, which had just got rid of most of the adverse effects left by Garrett greenward, was actually disconnected from the Muggle world in New York.

"... at that time, the magic parliament didn't have much spare power to pay attention to the Muggles... Oh, are you called 'Muggles' in Britain? In short, the parliament didn't plan to conduct an in-depth investigation if it didn't realize that the Muggle children missing cases might be related to the case in many details. However, since there is the possibility of merging the case, it is related to the presence of black wizards , the Congress took action immediately - at that time, our team was responsible for assisting Auror of the Congress. "

Speaking in such detail, John seemed to gradually return to the night ten years ago. At the neon intersection on the streets of New York, he and a companion followed a five person auro team and began to investigate the murder that may have affected his brother Brooks

"Please stay close... We can't use Muggle expulsion curse because we need to avoid disturbing anything. In addition, we may have to deal with some Muggles - the target of the criminals has been very clear, and most of them choose children among the Muggle tramps. Such a target is easy to start, and once we succeed, it is difficult to be detected. Like the killing before The way a whole family is robbed is accidental. "

The Deputy captain Auror walking in front is a little talkative, but he seems quite calm. He seems to be used to this way of handling cases. At this time, dressed in civilian clothes, they walk in the street, but they are not like a team of Aurors corresponding to Ma Ji police officers, but more like a few giggling Street gangsters.

However, when he followed the other party through a dark alley, John saw a sharp light in the eyes of the vice captain, and then raised his chin and motioned to the colorful wall at the alley:

"See those graffiti? The pattern with bloody fangs biting through gold coins in the lower left corner shows that those vampires have a party on wall street tonight - those guys are connected with some underground gangs of hemp chickens and often organize parties. Originally, it was possible to get some information from them in this case, but... Hey, I just caught a few last month It's not appropriate to go in and find them now. If you're not careful, you might be cheated by those fangs! "

As he spoke, he walked forward, staggering and disorderly, but beneath the surface of frivolity and exaggeration, there was a well honed prudence and sophistication.

The Auror of the United States in this era has come all the way on the tail of the chaotic situation in previous decades, and its strength and ability are all quite excellent. On the contrary, John and the research institute companion on his side, although they even surpass the five Aurors in magic strength, such experience is much thinner.

Fortunately, the two of them who can be allowed to participate in this mission are at least smart people. What to do at this moment is clear to both of them.

"So?" John, who was still young at the time, smiled and asked casually, "who are we looking for now?"

"Of course it's a werewolf," the vice captain shrugged, "I'm sure you both know that many werewolves can't change at will, but in human form, some even look thin - they are all ordinary people, aren't they? And this kind of werewolf usually lives with Ma Ji, so they actually mix better with Ma Ji than those sharp toothed guys who can't keep their mouth shut Good... Oh, this way. "

With that, the other party suddenly reached out and pulled John, led them to turn a corner with other teammates, and walked towards another street not far away.

This street is actually much narrower than the main road outside, but because of a lot of people, it suddenly seems more heated and noisy.

At present, New York is actually drizzling, but John thought the rain had stopped because there were all kinds of sheds and light boxes in the street.

The surroundings became noisy.

"Hey! Where's old William!"

It was so cold that John saw the vice captain suddenly take a few oblique steps, squeeze away the crowd, gather to the door of a shop on one side, and yell loudly at the inside.

"William? Over there, the bar, the new one opened the other day -"

Probably know each other, or not - John is not sure. However, it was obvious that the other party had asked the specific location of the person he was looking for. After hearing the other party's random thanks, he squeezed through the crowd again and walked to John.

"I know the place. Let's go!"

"Oh."

John nodded subconsciously, looked at each other, and then went on. He thought about it, shrugged his shoulders, and then took a big step to follow.

"John, have you figured out the reason why Brooks played truant now?" the companion who was assigned to follow the team with him suddenly asked.

It's really noisy in the street. I haven't heard what the other party asked for a while. After asking his companion to repeat it, John shook his head, frowned slightly and said:

"Although I haven't seen Brooks for some time, as far as I know, his character should not be impulsive. This time he played truant at the beginning of school, probably for some reason."

After saying this to his companion, he muttered to himself that the other truant was the little girl TIA. Maybe Brooks had something to do with her?

However, as John, who knew both children well, he didn't think too far at that time. Because as far as he knows, they didn't seem to have much friendship in the past. It's more like a coincidence to think so.

Without much thought, John and his companions soon followed Auror and hurried to the destination.
