The Evil God of Hogwarts - Chapter 386
c376 pride of lions theory
The young wizard was not panicked. As long as Bluebeak was still there, he still had a chance to escape. Besides, this group of people probably just wanted his cooperation, not his life.
So Xing Ze took advantage of the situation and continued to ask: “What do you want? If you want me to help find Thomas, there is no need to make such a big fuss.”
A smile finally appeared on Todd’s cold face. He picked up the cutlery, cut a piece of steak elegantly and put it into his mouth. After chewing slowly, he said: “Do you eat meat, Xing Ze?”
“Of course.”
“That’s right, only carnivores can stand at the top, and herbivores can only become prey. Just like this steak, no matter how magical the cow was in its lifetime, it eventually became food for others.”
“I don’t understand what you mean. If you want to take a philosophy class, I’m afraid you’ve found the wrong person and time.”
“Haha, you’re interesting.” Todd praised, took the napkin and wiped the sauce on his mouth, “What I want to say is that everyone here is a carnivore. We all have something in common, why not work together?”
Lion group theory. Xing Ze pondered in his heart and replied: “A group of lions can only accommodate a small number of male lions.”
“That’s right. That’s why.” Todd spread his hands, “We gathered here.”
Xing Ze couldn’t help laughing, he shook his head and said: “Don’t joke, Mr. Todd. The foreign male lions either defeat the original leader to take charge of the lion group, or become victims of the duel. Which one do you think I am?”
Roman interrupted: “We are not just beasts, we know how to absorb useful people. Cooperate with us, Xing Ze, help us find Thomas. I will give you everything you want. I remember you are investigating the whereabouts of “Snake’s Fang”. As long as Thomas can be found, we will give you the book.”
Hearing this, Xing Ze raised his eyebrows and said: “The book is with you? Ha, seeing is believing, hearing is false. How can I believe you without evidence?”
“The evidence is that we are still talking to you now, instead of shooting you in the head.” Marco continued.
Marco’s words did not anger Xing Ze. He just asked in an impatient tone: “I have been asking about your plan, but you have avoided talking about it. Even if I agree to cooperate, I have to see if the plan is reasonable or not?”
“Don’t worry, Xing Ze.” Roman took a sip of red wine leisurely, “Our plan is to start from the cemetery, find the entrance to the passage, and then enter the house from the passage. I think you should have seen the general map of the cemetery.”
Roman paused, and continued after Xing Ze nodded: “We found that there have been several trucks going to the cemetery in recent times. Some members helped investigate and found that someone was trading in the cemetery, and also found the secret passage they used for trading.”
“Then, we sent people to conduct further investigations and found a secret door in the study of the house. After going down, there was a warehouse. However, the investigators were attacked before they could see what was inside, but they ran out of the secret passage by mistake.”
“There is always a way out.” Marco sighed, “Originally they should have all They were all left inside, but they all escaped unscathed. It’s a miracle.”
“God bless them.” Todd said, “That’s why I suggested that we go with you to investigate this time. Most of the hunting tasks are completed by female lions, but when they are in danger, male lions will stand up.”
Xing Ze was not interested in the old-fashioned lion group theory. He asked, “Have you investigated the truck?”
“Some investigation.” Roman said, “We know the license plate, but we haven’t locked the driver yet. But this is not important. The important thing is that there is a warehouse in the basement of the house. No matter who is behind this, it will not be good. The focus at the moment is that we have to control the house as soon as possible to see what the other party is doing. ”
“What about Thomas?”
“Of course we have to look for Thomas.” Todd replied, “But I don’t think he will be in that house. The initial team’s investigation did not find any traces of him in that house.”
It seems that they know that the trucks had delivered the goods to the University of Brest. Xing Ze wondered in his heart whether to tell them about this.
But thinking of what this group of people did to him, he swallowed his words back. According to what was found in the truck before, the snake people are establishing bases everywhere. They are like mold spots, blooming everywhere, and finally gathering into one.
Brychester has their members, so doesn’t the local Unsolved Mysteries Association have them? Looking at the three people in front of him, Xing Ze judged whether there was a possibility of spies among them.
“So, we plan to deal with the dream monster guarding the house first. Then investigate the house carefully to see if we can find clues to Thomas’ disappearance.”
Xing Ze narrowed his eyes and asked Todd: “Is Thomas so important? Why do we have to find him?”
“He has made very important contributions to our association. His uncle is the same, old Kimball, I think you should know who I am talking about.”
“Douglas Kimball.”
“Yes, that’s him. The uncle and nephew have made great contributions to the association. Old Kimball has disappeared and we have failed him. But we can’t let his nephew repeat the same mistakes.”
For Todd’s beautiful words. Xing Ze just sighed in his heart. It seemed that these people were not going to tell him the truth.
“Do you know the snake man?”
Todd was stunned for a moment, swallowed and said, “Do you suspect that Thomas’ disappearance is related to the snake man?”
“It’s possible.”
“That makes sense.” Roman said, rubbing the beard on his chin. “I remember Thomas has been studying ancient civilizations, and the snake-man civilization is his specialization.”
Marco denied: “Studying the snake-man civilization, is his disappearance related to the snake-man? This is nonsense and has no basis. I also study ancient human civilization. If I disappear, can you think of ancient human beings? Looking for me for clues?”
“Marco, what Roman said makes sense. Do you still remember what old Kimball was studying?”
“Um, it seems like a curse or something.”
“It’s the curse of the snake people.” Roman added, “Both of them were researching content related to the snake people, and they both disappeared. I suspect that they both disappeared after searching for the snake people civilization or things related to the snake people. ”
“But everyone knows that the Snake People are an ancient civilization. Even if there are still some that are still alive in the world, most of them are hiding in the dark depths of the earth. It is a bit difficult to find them.”
That’s not difficult at all. Xing Ze sighed in his heart.
“In recent years, there have been many reports about snake people.” Todd tried to smooth things over again. “Most of them are concentrated in Liverpool. There is a scholar in Liverpool who is considered our non-staff. He has written to us more than once, Says some care homes in Liverpool have been attacked by upright reptilian creatures.
“Of course, there is no basis for words. Apart from these rumors, there is no substantial evidence to show that the snake people have returned to the surface.”
Ah, then you really need to go to Emberhead Village. Xing Ze whispered in his heart.
