The pain reagent is an analytical and detection magic potion commonly used by dark wizards. As the name suggests, it is used to measure the pain of the analysis object.
Among all kinds of terrible black magic research and experiments, "whether it can cause pain" has always been the goal pursued by some dark wizards, and the "Cruciatus Curse", which is listed as one of the three unforgivable curses, is probably the current one. This is the ultimate product of black magic.
Therefore, when the Auror who followed the team smelled the painful reagent, he immediately rushed forward and used his wand to hold the opponent against him without hesitation.
But... of course, the pain reagent itself is definitely not good or evil. In the work of a therapist, there are actually situations where this reagent needs to be used occasionally... although the opportunities to use it are indeed very few.
"... This gentleman from the Ministry of Magic, that was my nephew just now. He is still young and is not sensible at all. Please don't embarrass him!"
"It's useless for you to tell me. I'm just an ordinary Auror responsible for fighting. How to deal with you depends on Miss Granger's judgment."
Faced with the plea of the suspected dark wizard in front of him, the Auror remained unmoved at all, not even trembling with the wand pressed against his chest.
It was obvious that although Lupine did not make any special instructions at the time, he actually assigned quite outstanding talents in the Auror office to Hermione without a word.
Behind the Auror, Hermione, who was listening to the conversation between the two, was somewhat concerned about the previous boy's words, but she still put her doubts aside for the time being.
Then, she took a diagonal step and walked out from behind the Auror again.
"Tell me! You proactively asked the Muggle soldiers to see us, and then attempted a sneak attack just now. What is the purpose of your appearance here? Did Helbo send you here?"
She asked a few words like this, but before she could finish her words, she heard the wizard who raised his hands immediately loudly denying:
"No, no, no, Miss Granger? I really didn't want to sneak up on you! I just... just wanted you to do me a small favor-"
"help?"
While this conversation was going on, Hermione's hand on the wand in her sleeve never relaxed. But judging from the current situation, it seems that the other party really has no intention of taking action.
When Hermione asked back, everyone present saw the other party nodding his head.
"Yes, actually..." The wizard looked back at his wife and children behind him hesitantly, and then confessed, "I just want you to take my family away!"
"Miss Granger, I remember you said at the beginning - we are indeed very aware of the current situation. If we continue to stay here, sooner or later we will be killed by the living dead and become their kind... However, Linda and the children were unwilling to leave on their own and insisted on staying here with me."
When the other party said these words, Hermione subconsciously glanced at the witch behind her and the two still young children.
It can be seen that although they did not say any sensational words such as "We will not abandon you", the determination in their moist eyes was obvious.
"Well," Hermione said with a slight frown, "Then after all, the reason why you insist on staying here is... Oh, is it because of the 'bedridden' father you mentioned earlier?"
Before she finished asking, some of the words the other party said at first suddenly appeared in her mind.
"Yes, that's it!" Seeing that Hermione still remembered it, the other party nodded hurriedly, "Actually, what we learned about the situation ahead was also what the child's grandfather... that is, my father told us. Just before that In the mist disaster, my father was injured and escaped from London - but his injuries were too serious, and he was also hit by an unknown powerful curse. At present, I can only rely on a large dose of magic potion to suppress it, but It’s probably impossible to move the location.”
After the other party explained the situation in general, Hermione couldn't help but hold her wand and think about it for a moment.
"Take us to take a look first! Maybe we can find a solution?"
"ah!"
Seeing Hermione say this, the other party suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Could it be that... Miss Granger can invite Mr. MacLean to come over? If he can come, my father may really be saved!"
Hermione alone shook her head immediately after hearing this.
"No, Maka has more important things to do. It's impossible to come here to treat your father."
"Look! They are just a bunch of hypocritical guys - stop being hypocritical, grandpa doesn't need your treatment! Uncle, have you forgotten what grandpa said? He will never forgive these people who put him in Ah The bastard Zikaban has imprisoned for twenty years—"
"Snapped!"
"You bastard, shut up!"
When the boy with the anger hidden in his eyes shouted loudly again, his father finally couldn't help but grabbed his collar and slapped him hard.
However, the boy's words also made the Auror on Hermione's side freeze his eyes again.
The so-called "twenty years of imprisonment in Azkaban" means that a prisoner who is sentenced to such a long time is no longer an ordinary dark wizard. Calculating the time roughly, he was probably one of those criminals who followed Voldemort to launch the first wizarding war and committed numerous evil deeds.
"Miss Granger, I suggest that it is best to arrest these people immediately."
The Auror's suggestion forced Hermione to think carefully, but after some thought, she finally shook her head slightly.
"Just collect the wand! If you dare to cause trouble under the current circumstances and slow down the migration, there will be only a dead end - it doesn't matter if you are a dark wizard or not."
After waving her hand casually, she gestured to the wizard again:
"Is your father in here?"
"Ah, yes! It's on the second floor—please follow me!"
After saying this, Hermione immediately followed the other person and passed between the two families. Even though the boy who was slapped to the ground by his father just now glared at her, she acted as if he hadn't seen him and walked straight past him without even looking.
As for the Aurors sent by Lupine, after a short meal, they chose to stay downstairs to guard the remaining two families.
Although it is indeed incomparable with Maka, Harry, Neville and others, Hermione's strength is definitely not weak. In addition, the wizard who led Hermione upstairs has lost his wand. Even if there is any other means, I believe Hermione's ability will be enough to deal with it.
"Well... I'll follow you and take a look."
Suddenly, the witch who had chatted with Hermione on many topics along the way spoke.
