The Evil God of Hogwarts - Chapter 366 Persuasion
Worm was still hesitant. Seeing him like this, Ellie gestured to Riben: “Let me talk to him.”
The superintendent glared at the smuggler, reluctantly left his seat and walked towards the door. Before going out, he reminded: “If anything happens, I will be outside.”
The office door was slammed shut, and Ellie let out a long sigh. She didn’t speak in a hurry, but was thinking about what to say in her mind.
There will always be water when you squeeze a wet sponge, and the same goes for Worm. Apparently this smuggler has a lot of good stuff hidden away, and he can spit out more just by applying some pressure.
Ellie had already expected this move. When she was in prison, she had seen many people, some who were tough-talking, some who were clever, and some who were as desperate as Grindelwald.
After seeing many different kinds of people, you will have considerable ability to identify them. Ellie is very accurate in reading people, and she doesn’t fail many times. The only man who made her lose her sight is not here now. She also didn’t believe she would make the same mistake again.
“You could have run away.” The eldest lady finally said, “It should be a piece of cake for you to steal a car and escape, right. Why not leave?”
Worm smiled and replied: “If I said I fell in love with you, would you believe it?”
“Then you have to queue up. There are too many people who fall in love with me. You don’t have much capital to offer.”
Ellie’s reply made Worm blush. He turned his face away and whispered: “I was so scared at that time that I didn’t even think of running away.”
Suddenly, Worm seemed to have thought of something, turned his head suddenly and asked: “By the way, that green gas is not dangerous, right? Damn it, I breathed some in, and it’s still a little nauseating to this day.”
“Didn’t the doctor check it out for you?”
“Let those doctors die. I need professional advice. If that’s magic…” At this point, the smuggler smiled mockingly, “Oh my God, I can say such stupid things. I mean, After all, it is magic and cannot be explained by common sense. These doctors have no idea about the situation. “
“Don’t worry. A small amount of inhalation won’t kill you, it will just make you uncomfortable for a while. If you are really worried, I can take you to St. Mungo’s for a check-up.”
“Where is St. Mungo’s?”
“A wizard’s hospital.”
“That’s great. You must take me there then.”
“Before that, you have to help us find the top brass of the Old Record Gang.”
Wurm felt a headache when he mentioned this matter, and he replied reluctantly: “I can help you, but I can’t guarantee that it will happen. Once the news of my cooperation with you gets out – I think it will get out soon. Get out – it will be too late for those so-called informants to hide from me, let alone provide help. “
“So we have to hurry up, there is no time for us to waste.” Ellie also understands this truth, “In addition, after so many years of smuggling, you must have many unknown secrets, so use all the tricks to save your life. ”
Worm said nothing, obviously still hesitating.
Ellie continued to persuade: “Once the Old Record Gang is destroyed, the next one will be the Knights Gang. What the demise of the two largest gangs means, you know better than me. At least there will be no more wanted warrants for you.”
These words touched Worm’s heart, but they were not enough for him to use all his cards. At any time, people need to leave sufficient escape routes for themselves.
“I know you hate drugs and human trafficking. Your conscience is still there, otherwise you wouldn’t still be sitting here. It was your conscience that kept you from running away and shooting me in the back. move.”
“Conscience? Stop joking.” Worm laughed, as if he had heard a great joke, “Are you talking to me about conscience? God, your way of persuading people is really bad. If I had a conscience, I wouldn’t will go down this path.”
The eldest lady shrugged her shoulders and said: “Whatever you say. I’ve seen a lot of twisted people like you. Let’s treat it as a deal. I’ll ask Ribbon to provide you with witness protection. After the matter is completed, you You can continue to live with a new identity.”
“That’s pretty much it.” Worm said. Witness protection means he can avoid jail and start a new life with a new identity. As long as he endures it for a few years, he can come back and take away his money when the limelight here passes.
But what really touched him to make his decision was not witness protection. He couldn’t say what it was. Maybe it was like Knicks said, he still had a conscience, but who could tell?
Afterwards, Ellie called Ribbon back, and the three of them discussed the matter of witness protection for a while. The superintendent said that he needed to ask the chief for instructions, but there should be hope. As long as the two major gangs in Liverpool could be destroyed, it wouldn’t hurt to give a little favor to an insignificant smuggler.
“So, what else do we need to do?” Riben asked. He didn’t think Ellie would just ask them to do that little thing.
“Do you still want that luxury sports car?” The corners of Ellie’s mouth raised slightly.
“Of course, I’m still looking. There are no clues at the moment.”
“I think I know where it is, if I’m not wrong it’s at the University of Liverpool.”
“Are you sure? How did it get there?” The superintendent was a little confused. He asked the police to pay attention to various high-end hotels and leisure places to see if they could find the car, but he did not expect that the car would be there. University of Liverpool.
“The Knights’ undercover investigation revealed that Frank’s team had been to the University of Liverpool. They visited a history teacher and an architecture professor.”
Ribbon’s mind was spinning quickly, and he immediately speculated: “They are asking about Liverpool’s water supply system?”
“Probably yes, I’ll go to the university later to check it out.”
“Then let’s…”
“Go and investigate this law firm.” Ellie handed a note to Ribbon. The words “Roche Law Firm” were written on the note.
Ribbon knew that place. This law firm was considered a time-honored one in Liverpool. Their best business was inheritance and land disputes.
“I don’t understand,” said the superintendent.
“Frank went to this office, and he was accompanied by a strange man. According to information from the Knights Gang, the man only stayed in Liverpool for less than two days. After he went to the office, he went to the property management center, and then flew back to the United States.”
“America?” The superintendent suddenly realized, “Do you think that strange man is Frank’s employer?”
Frank’s employer is not that simple. Ellie secretly thought in her heart, but she still said: “It is very possible that if we find this person, we will know what Frank and his party were doing and where they went before they died…”
“To locate the snake man’s lair?”
Ribbon is indeed a smart man, and Ellie is quite satisfied with his reasoning ability. However, Worm on the side was confused. He wanted to figure out what was going on, but after hearing the word snake man, he gave up decisively.
