v5 Chapter 8： You are stupid, not even France!

Looking at the wooden cup marked Made in England, William was in a bad mood.

He came all the way from England to Venice just to see the knockoffs made in England? !

This is a kind of high price to buy tickets for scalpers, and finally at the concert scene... listen to the lip-synching throughout the whole process.

As a tenth-level user of Net Cloud Suppression, I was instantly depressed.

The last time such a bad experience was when William woke up and found that his ticket was torn and the scratch-off music was gone.

Well, he was still in a good mood. After all, it’s better than being sold to Africa for mining, right?

Hermione tossed and checked the cup several times. She didn't feel a little magic from above.

Combine that with that line of print...it doesn't take too long to see that this is a fake goblet!

Not to mention the Goblet of Fire, it's too troublesome to light it as a torch.

"What? If the Goblet of Fire is lost, the Triwizard Tournament can't be played, right?" Hermione asked.

William looked at Hermione and sighed.

This silly girl... Instead of worrying about the Triwizard Tournament, it's better to think more about our problems.

He and Hermione were righteous, but it was just the two of them in this room.

Such an important magical item has disappeared... Can you explain it clearly!

You said you didn't steal it, or you didn't steal it?

Well...even if you two didn't steal it...you can't find the culprit, so you have to be blamed first?

William was not clear about Venice, but he was clear about the British and French Ministry of Magic.

If it's Fudge... Without further ado, he'll be imprisoned in Azkaban first, and then fight a public opinion war in the newspapers, claiming triumphantly that the prisoner has been caught.

investigation? That's after the dust settles.

Clegane is even more of a bachelor, just look at Mr. Newt. He can also make decisions that are wanted in the city.

Through these two men, William had a basic understanding of European officials.

And don't expect these Ministry of Magic wizards to be wise with Dumbledore.

These people will always do some suffocating actions that you can't understand.

So, to escape or not to escape... that is the question.

Just when William hesitated, the door was opened again.

Martell walked slowly, he apologized: "Something just happened, I need to deal with it urgently, boy, how is the Goblet of Fire?"

Looking at Maltai's age, William felt that it would be better to take care of his emotions.

Otherwise, the old man couldn't accept the news and suddenly fell to the ground and died suddenly... Isn't it William's responsibility?

"It's good." He lied decisively: "Hermione, hurry up and put it back, don't break such a valuable thing."

William decided to leave here first. Even if the Goblet of Fire is found to be fake later, it has nothing to do with them.

At least the two sides are arguing.

"Wait, kid...I need to check it out," Martell stopped.

"The Goblet of Fire hasn't been rekindled in over two hundred years and must be checked."

William and Hermione exchanged innocent glances, which the girl carefully handed over.

Martell checked with his wand. After a while, he suddenly raised his head and said in disbelief, "This Goblet of Fire... is fake!"

William glanced at Hermione, without needing to speak, she had a good heart, and said in a surprised tone:

"Fake? How... I just opened the box... You read that right, sir?"

William silently gave Hermione a compliment. This acting skills would be no problem to win an Oscar.

The old movie queen!

"That's right." Martell checked again, his face gloomy.

"I've seen the real Goblet of Fire, it's full of powerful magic, this one is indeed fake."

William was also shocked, as if he couldn't believe it was fake.

He analyzed: "Someone must have secretly lost the bag.

There should be not many wizards who can enter this room, probably acquaintances commit the crime... I suggest that you check the guards. "

Hermione looked at William in admiration.

The old actor!

"Yes, it does need to be carefully investigated." Martell said seriously.

He waved his wand, and a silver sand snake flew out from the tip of the wand, flew through the gate, and headed outside.

Soon, the four Aurors at the door pushed open the door and entered. Nymeria followed behind, confused.

William glanced up at the Auror and asked, "Don't you doubt us both, sir?"

"No." Martell took a deep breath and said, "But boy, I'm sorry, I have to detain the two of you temporarily!"

"Seize?! Seize us?" Hermione asked angrily.

"Why would we steal the Goblet of Fire like this? We have Dumbledore's letter, no need to steal it!"

"This is just a necessary procedure." Martell stepped back and stood with the Auror captain.

"You both must stay in the cell until the matter is investigated."

"You can't imprison us!" Hermione snapped. "You have no evidence!"

Martell's eyes widened as if to say: No evidence?

"Miss Granger, no one has come in here for a long time. But the Goblet of Fire was dropped when I was out."

He stopped. "I have no evidence, but there are enough reasons to detain you and interrogate you.

I know you two are amazingly famous, but fame is no reason to avoid interrogation.

I'm just following the normal judicial process. "

"No, you didn't!" Hermione changed her mind, she said calmly.

"William is the Wizengamore Youth Representative and has written authorization from Dumbledore, President of the International Federation.

His identity is equivalent to the British Wizengamot.

According to the International Code of Universal Magical Law, Article 9 states:

High-ranking officials who commit crimes abroad need to be interrogated at the same time under the supervision of wizards from both countries. Under special circumstances, they have the right to be directly extradited to their home country.

There are no British Ministry of Magic officials here. "

Hermione paused and said, "You have no right to interrogate William, and you cannot forcibly restrict his freedom without sufficient evidence."

Martell was silent for a while.

He stared at Hermione, and after a while, said softly:

"Of course, Miss Granger, you have a good memory, and you are right."

He said solemnly: "Britain is a country with a storied history, rich culture and amazing wizards.

I'm not looking for conflict.

We are committed to developing a constructive and results-oriented relationship with the UK Ministry of Magic and, in our defence relationship, to open channels of communication and reduce risk. "

Martell's words changed, "So we will obey the law, we will not restrict Mr. Stark's freedom, we will only send Aurors to monitor him.

But you are not Wizengamot or a representative of the youth, and you must cooperate with the interrogation and stay in the cell to be investigated. "

Hermione breathed a sigh of relief. In her opinion, this is the best outcome.

William went out to investigate, whether it was to inform Dumbledore, or to find out the truth early...he could save her.

She hadn't thought about not finding the Goblet of Fire, because William... sure. She blindly trusted him.

The girl looked at the boy, but he just shook his head slightly.

"Don't be stupid, Hermione." William grinned lightly: "Venice Prison, not Hogwarts, that's not a joke.

It is neither safe nor comfortable there.

Isn't it, Mr. Martell? "

Martell did not answer. But it is also the default.

Azkaban is the most famous prison in the wizarding world, guarded by dementors. But the magic prison in Venice is also not bad.

It is divided into two types: water prison and lead-top prison.

Water prisons, as the name suggests, are built in water. Usually the same as the water level. So prisons are often flooded.

Now it has been raining heavily for days, and the water level is about waist-deep every day.

The lead-top cell is located in the cell next to the top floor.

The roofs of these cells are made of lead sheets, which are swelteringly hot in summer and bitterly cold in winter.

Anything that involves prison is not a good place to go.

The old man said solemnly: "We will ensure the safety of Miss Granger, you can rest assured..."

William sneered and interrupted: "What guarantee do you take?

I don't even know if the Goblet of Fire is lost... as expected of an Italian.

I seriously doubt that your combat effectiveness is not as good as that of France. "

"But..." Hermione hesitated.

In doing so, William will surely be wanted. He can go out alone, there is no need to take such a risk for her.

William reached out and squeezed Hermione's cheek, staring, "No but, I won't let you stay in prison alone."

Hermione looked at the boy, her eyes moist and red. She bit her lip and didn't refute any more.

"Besides, if your father knew, I would throw you in jail." William muttered. "He didn't break my three legs yet?"

Hermione couldn't hold back, she burst out laughing, she rubbed her red eyes and rolled her eyes at William.

Martell watched William intently. "As a wise man, Stark, the choice you made today was stupid.

You want to rebel against the high officials of the Ministry of Magic? Intentionally obstructing our investigation? Even if you are British, Dumbledore will not cover you. "

"And, in view of what you just said, I think not only your wand, but also the magic items on your body should be inspected."

"Look." William smiled arrogantly, "Hermione, you still want me to go out and investigate.

People have long thought of seizing wands, and now they are seizing magic items.

You say, can you give it to him? "

The girl bit her lip and shook her head vigorously.

There are a lot of secrets hidden in the safety table of the two. Not to mention the invisible dementors, but also the Silmarillion, the Ravenclaw crown.

This cannot be handed over to the Italian Ministry of Magic.

William grinned and stroked Hermione's thick shaggy brown hair.

He turned his head, his eyes gradually became cold, and he said plainly, word by word: "Look, this is simple."

The Auror captain, who was already vigilant, suddenly shouted: "Be careful!"

At the same time, the wand shot a magic spell, and in full view, it shot at Martell's head, causing some sharp-eyed bystanders to think he was crazy.

Little did they know that the spell and the other spell were opened, making a clanging sound of gold and stone.

Another silver flash swirled around the room, and the floor shook with a loud bang like the sound of gunfire.

Then, a second silver flash exploded, filling the air with dust.

Nymeria's eyes widened suddenly, only to see four Aurors already on the ground.

Martell was also like a sand snake whose body had been straightened, and flew backwards. After hitting the ground, he didn't move. Most of the time he was unconscious.

She turned her head and stared at Stark, eyes full of horror.

The boy had already taken the girl, shattered the floor-to-ceiling windows on one side of the room, and jumped straight out from the fifth floor.

Nymeria fell to the ground in a daze, looking at the five people who fell to the ground with blank eyes.
