The Evil God of Hogwarts - Chapter 371 Confrontation
Xing Ze didn’t know exactly what kind of medicine was sold in Jeze Besi Hulu, but there must be some fraud in it. Before getting the information he wanted, no matter what the woman said, he would not agree easily.
Jezebeth was not a fool. She could see what Xing Ze was thinking, so she could only endure the sweltering heat in the car and explain: “Not many people at the top of the association have actually been to the magical world, and they are still very superficial about it. in cognition.
“So, they don’t know what you do in the magical world. At least not many people will really understand your deeds. Compared with these, they prefer to study the bright magic and weird spells. As you said, they He thinks he is noble and wants to prove that Muggles can also learn magic.”
“This is none of my business.” Xing Ze said impatiently, “That’s a conflict within your association.”
“Don’t say that. Of course this is related to you. It is precisely because of this that they despised you, which led to this series of temptations. If they knew who you were, I don’t think there would be so much trouble at all.”
Xing Ze sneered. The woman in front of him was indeed a smart person. She completely dismissed all the responsibilities in a few words. Coupled with her pitiful expression, probably not many men would have the heart to blame her anymore.
“So they sent you to apologize?”
“You can think so, but to be precise, it’s a formal invitation. They invite you to the association’s secret gathering place to facilitate discussion of some things.”
“What do you know about old Kimball? I heard this house was his before.”
“Damn it, Xing Ze. Are you sure you want to talk about this here?”
Xing Ze smiled, looked at the woman and said, “I’m sure, if you think it’s inappropriate, I can investigate it myself.”
After a long silence, Jezebeth complained helplessly: “You are really stubborn. Well, old Kimball is also a member of our association, and he recommended Thomas to join the association. As for his disappearance, to be honest Yeah, I don’t know much about it.
“You also know that as a woman, even though I am in the management of the association and am a messenger between the magical world and the real world, these are all empty shells. The top management needs someone who can enter the magical world to gain knowledge, and I It’s the poor guy who was chosen.”
“A bridge? The value of its existence is communication, and its other functions are minimal. It should not even have self-awareness.” Xing Ze muttered in a low voice.
But in his heart, he thought: A Muggle spy sent to the magical world? No, judging from this woman’s status, she will never be willing to be someone else’s handle and tool. What is she hiding?
Jezebeth neither denied Xing Ze’s words nor agreed with them. She just continued: “You have to understand, Xing Ze. Thomas’s disappearance is not a coincidence. We believe that he suffered the same curse as old Kimball.”
“Curse?” Xing Ze finally became interested.
“Yes, old Kimball has been researching documents and materials related to the curse before he disappeared. However, his research was sealed by the association and can only be read by high-level officials.”
Speaking of this, Jezebeth paused, spread her hands and said: “Unfortunately, as I said before, although I am a senior executive, I do not have the right to read these contents. However, I also have my own way to obtain internal information.”
Xing Ze frowned slightly and asked: “So you know what curse Old Kimball is studying, right? I guess, in exchange, you want me to go to the association’s meeting place?”
“You are very smart, Xing Ze, and that’s why I like you. But I don’t mind telling you Douglas’s research now. As for the reason, I just want you to understand that I am not your enemy.”
Jezebeth did not continue to lie, but said directly: “The curse Douglas studied comes from Ige. I don’t know if the name is correct. In short, I can’t pronounce the name completely.”
As she spoke, Jezebeth took out a document from her wallet. After Xing Ze took it, she explained: “I asked someone to extract an excerpt from his manuscript. You can have a look.”
After seeing the twisted and unreasonable words on the document, Xing Ze’s brain was suddenly startled. The fatigue caused by the intense heat suddenly dissipated, but was replaced by surprise and chills.
He had seen these ancient and strange symbols on the murals in the underground caves of Emberhead Village. Now he finally understood the general meaning of these symbols.
The recurring symbol on the mural is Yig. According to Douglas’s research, Yig is the father of the snake people and an ancient god. He had cursed His people in the past, but Douglass did not write why.
The Curse of the Snake God. Xing Ze thought silently in his heart that this was a curse placed by Ige on his descendants, but why did Douglas want to study this? This makes absolutely no sense.
This incomplete document successfully attracted Xing Ze’s attention, and he knew that if he wanted to get more content, he had to go to the meeting point of the Unsolved Mysteries Association.
Jezebes noticed Xing Ze’s wavering. As a woman who has been wandering among various forces for a long time, it is necessary to be observant. She has to figure out people’s hearts all the time. At this point, Jezebes is quite capable. confidence.
“Even if you continue to stay here, there will be no consequences.” She continued to persuade, “Those things have already noticed your presence, and you have been exposed long ago.”
Xing Ze actually understood that there would be no results if he continued to wait. The snake man will definitely set up spies on the Avenue de Reims, and foreign cars like him will soon be included in the suspect list.
His original plan was to go directly into the house to take a look after his magic power recovered, but he did not expect that the local Unsolved Mysteries Association would take the initiative to come to him, and the person who came was Jezebeth, this Xing A woman that Ze really doesn’t want to see.
He folded the document and returned it, and asked in a deep voice: “How much do you know about the situation in that house? Stop lying. You can copy the document. This is not difficult for you. Bar.”
“Snake-man.” Jezebeth simply stated the information she had obtained. “I don’t know what it is? But I have seen this species in some ancient documents. If you want more information, Then find a way to get Thomas back, he is the most famous researcher of ancient civilization in our association. “
Xing Ze sighed in his heart, and he understood that everything pointed to Thomas Kimball. Is this a coincidence? It was still a lie made up by the woman in front of me.
However, the insight he was once proud of had no effect on this woman. Her expressions, movements, and even her tone of voice were all flawless, and there was no hint of lying at all.
But because of this, Xing Ze felt something was wrong, because if a person deliberately wants to cover up a lie, he will behave differently, and this is the case with this woman.
