The Evil God of Hogwarts

Chapter 317 The calm before the storm

Telford is a small place, and outsiders are quite conspicuous here. Therefore, after randomly interrogating a few local gangsters, Xing Ze found the three people who attacked Lanni.

The local police obviously complicated things. They set up checkpoints on the main roads and dispersed their personnel to inquire around. But the three were experienced and changed their outfits with the help of local gangs.

He followed the three of them to the freight center and saw them talking to a driver for a long time. The driver had a red nose and a pair of small eyes.

After that, the three foreigners stayed in the truck until the sun went down, and they didn't make any move until just now.

Xing Ze put away his wand and walked to the boxes. He squatted down and opened one, and then he could see the contents clearly under the dim interior light of the car.

It's a gun, a rifle that hasn't been assembled yet. He then opened several more, all of which were weapons, ranging from guns to grenades, to bulletproof vests and night-vision goggles.

Although there are only three people, with this complete set of equipment, it will not be a problem for these three people to take down the entire Telford police station.

Mercenary? Xing Ze secretly thought in his heart that a small team of three mercenaries were targeting the travelers in the hotel. After the setback in the supermarket, they decisively upgraded their equipment.

These weapons were obviously not brought by them, but were sent to them by someone. He should be from the Old Records Gang, so that means the little-eyed driver is from the Old Records Gang?

wrong. Xing Ze frowned. He looked at the three people lying on the ground and decided to deal with them for now.

A few minutes later, the van drove out of the freight center and headed outside the town. It drove until it reached the former barn before Xing Ze stopped. Although he was stopped by the police as he left town, a series of spells and the operation of the Scottish detective identity did not raise any suspicion among the police.

He got out of the car, opened the back door, and used a levitating spell to transport the three people out of the car. The driver among the three was the only one who did not faint. When Xing Ze planned to deal with them, he tried to resist. It has to be said that these professionally trained mercenaries are far superior to ordinary people in terms of resistance to attack.

The three were tied up, and the driver had a rag stuffed in his mouth. He was twisting his body on the ground, trying to sit up.

Xing Ze did not embarrass him, but stretched out his hand to pull him up and lean against a car tire. "I have something to ask you. If you don't want to die naked here, you'd better answer me honestly."

Seeing the mercenary nodded, Xing Ze took the rag out of his mouth.

"First question, who sent you here?"

"intermediary."

"intermediary?"

The mercenary nodded, "There are intermediaries all over the country, and they will send us tasks."

"Address and name?" Xing Ze took out his notes and asked.

The mercenary was shocked by the notes that appeared out of thin air. He swallowed and gave his name and address without much thought.

"Very good. Second question, why kill us?"

"Kill? No, no, no, our mission is just to subdue you, unless there is an emergency."

I see. That's why you didn't use your gun during that time in the supermarket. Xing Ze thought in his mind, but if this is the case, then there is another problem.

"The equipment in your car is enough to rob a bank. If you use it to subdue us, I'm afraid it's too much."

"Yes, the mission has changed." The mercenary replied, "The latest instruction is for us to go to the outskirts of the town to cause trouble, as long as we attract the police. Others will complete the other things."

“What do you mean someone else will finish it?”

"I don't know, I really don't know, he didn't tell me much, and we won't ask more."

"Did the truck driver ask you to do that?"

"Yes, that's him."

Xing Ze frowned and thought for a while, as if he suddenly understood something. He put away his notes, took out his wand and waved it, and the mercenary fainted.

After getting the three people back into the car, Xing Ze immediately rushed towards the Molly Hotel. If his guess was correct, these three mercenaries were used to attract the small town police, and the Old Record Gang had their own plans for those time-travelers.

Maybe not the Old Record Gang. Xing Ze didn't believe that a Liverpool gangster could extend his claws that far, maybe those snake men.

They had given warning before - those four corpses with embryos. These reptiles want to take the most vicious revenge on those humans who dare to disturb them.

If this is the case, then what the travelers in the hotel will face tonight is not as simple as mercenaries.

Yuri, who was sitting on the sofa, did not fall asleep. Although his eyes were closed, he still listened to the movements around him. Mike was probably really tired and fell on the bed and fell asleep. He could hear Lanny banging his pipe. The detective was sitting in the chair on the other side.

The door to the room was locked. This low-end hotel in the countryside does not have electronic locks, and the door is just the simplest wooden door that can be kicked open with a heavy kick, just like what is often shown in movies.

The hotel's poor sound insulation had an unexpected effect, allowing Yuri's sensitive hearing to pick up some movements in the corridor.

It was almost eleven o'clock, and midnight would pass in another hour. While they were at home, it was his and Lanny's turn to keep vigil.

Suddenly, he heard some movement, very subtle and vague. At first, Yuri thought he heard it wrong, but after paying attention, the voice became slightly clearer.

mouse? He asked himself in his mind, but quickly dismissed the idea. He listened intently and breathlessly again, but the voice no longer sounded.

Yuri opened his eyes and looked at Lanni opposite. The sound was obviously not made by him. Yuri stood up, his actions immediately alerted Lanny.

"I'm going to the bathroom," he said. "There's no need to be so nervous."

Lanny changed the position of the pipe in his mouth and watched Yuri walk into the toilet. His other hand was playing with a box of matches. Considering Mike's condition, he suppressed the urge to light the pipe.

Kent's footsteps came from outside the corridor, steady, fast and powerful. Every twenty minutes they would switch to each other to make sure everyone was awake.

Yuri walked into the toilet and closed the door gently. He looked up at the ceiling, and after looking at it for a while, he put his head on the wall.

The sound disappeared. But he did hear slight movement just now, like the sound of a mouse running through the ventilation duct.

Many mission experiences made Yuri very cautious about any movement, and it was this caution that saved his life more than once.

With his keen hearing, he captured some movement again, but he still couldn't tell what made the noise.

Just when he was confused, footsteps sounded outside the toilet door. Yuri moved away from the wall and opened the door before there was a knock on the door. He made a hissing gesture towards Lanny, and then pointed at the ceiling.
