Chapter 422 Grindelwald: Check him out

The young wizard, who was slightly taller than a cigarette case, was standing on the vast sheets. He was thinking about how the power of his magic became as powerful as a toy's tricks, when he suddenly heard the subtle purr of a feline.

The cat wandered around, looking for the right moment, and pounced forward, as fast as thunder and as fast as the wind, with its fluffy hair flying. It opened its front paws, and its big mouth seemed to be roaring silently.

The young wizard in front turned around suddenly and pointed with his toothpick-like wand——

"Clear water like a spring!"

"Pfft!"

A stream of water hit the cat's nose directly with a force that should not be underestimated. The cat was shocked, screamed "Ouch", jumped two heights, fell on the bed, rolled around and pulled at its nose with its paws.

Fortunately, the water flow released by the small wand is not much, and it can be cleaned in a few times. The cat looked at the little human in shock and fear, its pupils becoming very large due to fear.

——Damn it!

Although this human has become smaller, it has mastered its greatest weakness!

The cat stared straight at the other person, but saw that the human showed no signs of relaxation or fear at all. Instead, it raised the "toothpick" again.

"Meow-"

The cat screamed, jumped forward with a pounce, then suddenly turned around, like a gust of wind, ran to the narrow gap behind the cabinet and hid, kicking the ground hard with its hind legs, forcing its fat and round body Stuffed in.

This scene was completely displayed on a silver-white liquid surface. Seeing the cat twisting and curling up, Grindelwald couldn't help but laugh.

"Let's go, it seems Ursula can only do this."

The young man behind him lowered his head, as if he had embarrassed his leader.

…

Vader naturally had nothing to be proud of for frightening a cat who was afraid of water.

He was about to try to see if the lock-picking spell could open the door's lock, when he saw the lock rotate on its own, and then two strangers walked in from the door.

One old and one young.

One looks weak and haggard, while the other is strong and burly, with clear muscle lines visible even in wizard robes.

Wade glanced briefly, then looked at the frighteningly thin old man.

His hair is almost completely white, and his blue eyes are very sharp. Although he is skinny and skinny, even with only a skeleton left, he still shows an extraordinary handsomeness.

He gives people the feeling that even if he is two hundred years old, he can still walk on the catwalk at any time.

Vader fell silent.

——No way... just after being released from prison, can you run to London, England, and conduct a precise kidnapping?

Then Vader remembered that the prison where this man was imprisoned, Nurmengard, seemed to have been built by himself.

He stayed in that prison, not because he couldn't leave, but because he didn't want to.

To say that the managers of Nurmengard are all Grindelwald's people, Vader doesn't find it strange at all, and actively or passively helped conceal the news of the prison break for a few days, which seems... very reasonable.

Wade did not speak, but the other party did not remain silent.

Grindelwald walked into the room and sat down calmly on the only chair. Another blond man stood behind him with his hands behind his back.

"Please sit down, my little guest." Grindelwald stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "I hope Ursula didn't scare you."

"Sorry, I seemed to have frightened it." Wade said, "And we don't have the etiquette of letting guests stand on the bed and talk."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Grindelwald laughed, his throat seemed to have been traumatized, and his laughter seemed hoarse.

"Sorry, this is indeed rude to us."

He smiled and waved to the wizard beside him.

The blond wizard stepped forward, took out a small bottle, used his wand to draw a few drops of potion out, and landed on Vader's body.

His body quickly lifted up, and the blond wizard simultaneously cast the reduction spell on his clothes. After a few seconds, Vader had returned to his original appearance.

He couldn't help but stretch his arms, feeling his own strength and magic power again, and felt much more at ease.

Then he took out his wand and was stunned.

The wand was still about the size of a toothpick, holding it between fingers, looking pitiful.

"Oh, right." Grindelwald laughed again, took out a wand from his pocket, and said, "This is your wand, that one is just a toy borrowed from a child."

Wade: "..."

While the veins on his forehead were pulsing faintly, he also realized that Grindelwald's casual and friendly attitude was beneficial to him.

In other words, when he woke up from bed and found that he was not being held or imprisoned, he knew that there was no need to worry about his life safety for the time being.

I just don't know what the other party wants from him and how long this friendly attitude can last.

Vader silently put down his toothpick wand, picked up his own wand, and casually cast a cleaning spell.

The magic flowed smoothly and naturally, and the cabinet in front suddenly became spotless, so clean that it seemed to reflect light.

This was the manifestation of the magic spell that he was familiar with.

As soon as the toothpick wand was placed on the table, a fairy flew down from the chandelier. It grabbed the toothpick wand with both hands and looked at several people making angry "buzzing" sounds. Although they couldn't understand it, it was obvious that they were swearing. .

After cursing several times, the fairy angrily grabbed her wand and flew back to the chandelier, shedding beautiful golden light all the way.

Wade: "..."

So that really is the fairy's wand...

As a feared dark wizard, isn't Grindelwald a bit of a wimp...

He lowered his eyes and thought, while pointing his wand at the blue banana tree next to him, and turned a soft and comfortable chair for himself.

After sitting down, Wade asked: "You 'invited' me to be your guest, I appreciate your kindness. But I'm busy recently, and it may not be suitable for me to go out for a long time. Please speak directly if you have anything to say."

Grindelwald lowered his head and coughed twice, then smiled and said: "Do you know who I am?"

"I guessed it." Wade did not pretend to be innocent and harmless, but said frankly.

"It's rare for a child of your age to know me." Grindelwald leaned back in his chair and said, "Ved Grey, you are a smart child. Then guess why I personally invited you here?"

Ved was silent for a moment and asked, "For the technology of making puppets?"

"Huh? Someone covets your technology?"

Grindelwald guessed and guessed the answer from Ved's expression. He shook his head and said, "I don't believe in this kind of thing that can think independently."

"Then you are for..." Ved selected his own inventions in his mind and asked, "-Flow Mirror?"

"That's right." Grindelwald smiled and said, "I heard that every wizard family now has at least one flow mirror, and from morning till night "It's on all night, and it's used more frequently than Muggle TVs. Are all the programs broadcast from the Aslan Magic Workshop?"

"Not entirely."

Ved said cautiously: "The Aslan Magic Workshop is negotiating with the Ministry of Magic of various countries. In the future, it will set aside a time slot in the morning and evening to broadcast the news of the country's magic world."

"And some stubborn wizards think that the streaming mirror will monitor their lives and threaten their safety, and they are unwilling to accept this invention."

"That's just the stupid opinion of a few people." Grindelwald said: "When I was young, many people still thought that cameras would take away their souls, but now no one thinks so."

"You're right." Ved said casually.

He had guessed the other party's purpose and was weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

But Grindelwald didn't give him that much time to think.

"As an inventor, can you bypass that magic workshop and let all the streaming mirrors play the pictures we specify?"

No mistake, one song, one post, one content, one 6, one book, one bar, one look!

Ved raised his eyes and looked at him.

It is said that organizations with deep ties to Muggles covet the technology of puppets, but Grindelwald, a wizard who has been in prison for nearly fifty years, immediately realized the importance of controlling public opinion in the wizarding world.

The silence lasted for a long time, and Wade asked: "What if I say I can't?"

"Do you think I can't tell a child's lies?" Grindelwald pointed to his eyes and said: "I know you can, child, I see you can."

Wade remembered that this man had a pair of eyes that could see the future - he was a natural prophet.

Has he seen the future scenes related to himself?

Wade is not sure, but the dark wizard in front of him does not have Dumbledore's good temper. Although he is very friendly now, Grindelwald is just as ruthless when he turns his face.

Wade exhaled slowly and said, "I need materials."

...

After leaving the room, Grindelwald handed the parchment filled with magic materials to the blond wizard and said:

"When he makes it, find one of our people to watch over it."

"Understood...Do you want to learn his crafting skills?" The blond wizard Delain added, fearing that he had misunderstood his meaning.

"Be careful." Grindelwald said, "lest he makes something powerful and destroys the base and escapes."

Although Delain felt that a child was not that capable, he still nodded and said, "Understood!"

"And..."

After Grindelwald walked a distance away, he said thoughtfully, "Check this Wade Grey again...Even if he is a Muggle, I want to know who his parents are, his performance in school since he was a child, and his views on the wizard bloodline theory, non-human magical creatures, etc....The more detailed the better."

"Yes, sir." Delain still responded.

The power of the Witch Party today is naturally incomparable to that of its heyday, but wizards have a much longer lifespan than Muggles. Fifty years have passed, and many of the old friends are still alive, and their children are active in various fields.

Moreover, as the Muggle society develops more and more rapidly, the living space of wizards is constantly squeezed. Some young wizards feel the threat and spontaneously join the Witch Party. Their ideas and work styles are even more radical than those of some old people who have experienced wars and massacres.

Today's Witch Party, like the deep water under the floating ice, still has great power, and it is no problem to find out any news.

In front of him, Grindelwald's eyes flashed with interest.

——He is only a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child, but his level of brain occlumency is very extraordinary. Even Grindelwald could not invade his memory without knowing it.

When will brain occlumency be used in school? Hogwarts is not Durmstrang...

Did Dumbledore give him special training?

Of course, if you use a wand and force a large amount of highly skilled Legilimency, you may not be able to dig out those hidden memories, but this will cause irreversible damage to that precious head.

Therefore, Grindelwald would rather spend more time waiting for the results of his subordinates' investigation.

…

The owl flew out and circled, then flew back again.

Harry untied the paper tied to the owl's claws and found that it was the one he had sent. He was completely overwhelmed by the huge disappointment and worry.

Michael supported himself on the windowsill with both hands, lying beside him and said, "I told you that owls are useless, otherwise Dumbledore and the others would have found the person long ago."

The white owl Hedwig, who was said to be "useless", pecked Michael's back of the hand angrily, spread her wings and flew out of the window.

Michael's parents are currently abroad, and in order to ensure safety, they have to live in the Burrow.

The Weasley family has a large population and the rooms are very cramped. In order to make room for the two boys, Ron needs to temporarily live in his brother Percy's bedroom.

Percy was very dissatisfied with this, thinking that Ron would disturb his NEWTs exam review; Ron even showed an expression like he was going to fall into a fire pit.

"It's bad enough to stay with Percy for the entire Christmas holiday, and to be in the same bedroom is simply a nightmare!"

Ron said with a bitter face, imitating Percy's tone: "Ronald, take your socks off my bed! Ron, don't make any noise, I'm reading a very advanced Transfiguration paper!"

Harry knew that he should cooperate and laugh at this time, but he really couldn't laugh, and his heart became even more uncomfortable.

After Ron packed up and went upstairs, Harry tried to write a note for Hedwig to deliver.

After the owl returned without success, the two of them just lay by the window. It was very late, but no one wanted to go to bed.

Suddenly, they heard the sound of owls flapping their wings. The two looked up with hope and saw owls flying in through the window one after another, dropping boxes of various sizes, and then turned around and flew away immediately.

"Ah, a Christmas present." Michael said woodenly, "I forgot that today is Christmas."

The two stood for a while, and Harry leaned over to pick up a box, which happened to be given to him by the Dursleys - the gift was a plastic bag, which might have been picked up by Aunt Petunia.

Harry found that he was not surprised or angry at all. He just put the plastic bag aside and picked up another box.

Then, Harry was stunned.

"Michael..."

He said in a trembling voice.

"What's wrong?" Michael asked.

"Look." Harry turned the gift box over, facing Michael with the name on it, and said, "This is from Wade!"
