The Evil God of Hogwarts - Chapter 357

c347 some preparation

The conversation between the two was interrupted by Harris who pushed the door in. He walked into the interrogation room, followed by a large group of people. Brett and Ellie had seen them before, but the others were unfamiliar.

After waiting for everyone to arrive, Brett began to explain a series of regulations and a general plan. The whole process took about an hour, during which the technicians installed eavesdroppers, trackers and other necessary equipment on Ellie and Worm.

The plan was not complicated. With Ellie and Worm as the center, Harris assigned three groups of detectives to follow. Reben was the commander-in-chief, responsible for dispatching police officers in the police station.

Harris was assigned to the first group of falcons as the on-site commander, and technicians like Brett were in the second group of elephants. The third group was the emergency force jackals. Once there was danger, they would rush to the scene at the first time.

Before setting off, Rayburn called Ellie aside and told her, “The jackal needs five minutes to respond to an emergency. If you find something wrong, say the safe word in advance. Do you remember what the safe word is?”

The eldest lady nodded, “George Wharf.”

“Yes. Although I don’t believe that those ordinary people will cause any danger to you, Worm is different. We need to ensure his survival. This kid knows a lot of things.”

“I know, Harris just said it. Don’t worry, the kid is smart and can take care of himself.”

“That’s the best. Oh, and when you mentioned the sewer crocodile, we need to evacuate, right? Are you sure?”

Ellie also gave Rayburn a safe word – sewer crocodile – when this word is mentioned, it means that there are things in the magical world, and the police need to evacuate to avoid unnecessary damage.

“Why is it this word?” Rayburn asked in confusion. Generally speaking, the choice of safe words is most appropriate if it is inconspicuous and can be integrated into the conversation.

For example, George Wharf, usually, is called Prince Wharf, and only the older generation will use the name George. The activities of the Old Record Gang are mainly concentrated here, so it would not be too out of place to mention it in the conversation.

But the sewer crocodile? Is this a horror urban legend? Wouldn’t it be out of place to mention this in a conversation with the gangsters?

Although he was full of doubts, Rayburn didn’t ask much. This might be a code word between wizards, or something else. For such unknown things, he always knew how to stop at the first taste.

“Oh, by the way. Do you have any extra police officers?” Ellie asked.

“How many, and other errands?”

Ellie nodded and handed some clues collected in the morning to Rayburn, “Let’s start with these nursing homes and see if we can find someone named Kimball.”

“As far as I know, these nursing homes and shelters are a bit old, and it may be difficult to find some information.”

Ellie thought about it and felt that Rayburn was right. If the police were to investigate these places, it would be like a headless fly. They would not know where to start.

“Can we find some of the staff of the nursing home at that time? They should know something. We can try to ask them.”

“The man named Kimball? I don’t think it has been so long. They can still remember…”

“No, no, I will arrange for someone to ask. You just need to help me find these people.”

“Oh, that’s no problem. I’ll have someone do it right away.”

“Good, I’m going to make a call now.” Ellie walked to the nearest phone and dialed Scott’s number.

The old man’s voice came from the other end of the phone, “Hey, I’m still wondering when you will call.”

“Why are you sure it’s me?”

“No one will call me at this time. Since my wife died, I have rarely contacted my children. They all think I’m crazy.”

“Do you have a car?”

“Yes.”

“I have a job for you.”

“So you want to cooperate with me?”

“The police will do their best to investigate some nursing home staff, and I want you to talk to them.”

“Good idea. I had this plan before, but personal information is locked in the archives and only specific people can view it. Can you talk to your police friend? Ask them to issue me a certificate, so that I can view the information.”

“I’m afraid not, you should wait for news at home.”

“Then there are always some things I can do now. I have been at home for almost a week, except for the apartment manager and the collector. I haven’t spoken to anyone except the gas man.”

“Then go out and play chess in the park.”

“So that those old men and women can say bad things to me? You are crazy.”

Aili thought for a while and said, “Then start with the latest investigation. After the closure of the Hand in Hand Future Nursing Home, only one shipping company has rented that building. You can check this shipping company first. It’s called Monks Ocean Company.”

“Do you think the closure of that shipping company has something to do with those snake people?”

“Just a guess.”

There was silence on the other end of the phone, and then the old man’s voice sounded again, “Okay, I’ll check it out. Monks, right?”

“That’s right.”

After hanging up the phone, Ellie returned to Rayben and gave him Scott’s number, “If you find anything, call this person and he will investigate.”

The superintendent took the phone and looked at it, and asked, “Is it someone from your side?”

“No, it’s your people.”

Under the suspicious gaze of the superintendent, Ellie walked towards Harris and his party.

…

Xing Ze’s car stopped at a roadside gas station. According to the map, this was the only gas station leading to Brichester. He planned to make some supplies and repairs here.

Although his physical injuries were mostly healed, he was extremely tired from running around all night. He thought about eating something at the gas station and drinking some refreshing drinks before hitting the road. In addition, he also needs to make a phone call to inform Ellie of what happened here.

The gas station store is not big, it can even be described as simple, and there are not many things on the shelves. It took Xing Ze a while to find some non-expired energy bars on the shelf.

The owner of the gas station was a fat man. He sat in the rocking chair, watching the football game on the black and white TV, and cursed from time to time.

“How much?” Xing Ze asked.

The boss glanced at it and quoted a price. Xing Ze put the money on the counter and asked, “Have you seen any strange people come to cheer up?”

“Weird person? What do you mean?”

“Someone who makes you feel uncomfortable.”

The boss grinned and said, “Do you count?”

Xing Ze didn’t argue with him. He took his things and walked out of the gas station. On the way to his car, he saw a truck driving into the gas station.

Xing Ze’s eyes narrowed. He calmly walked to his car and got in, but he had no intention of starting the car.
