"Miss Blois... Of course, I am also very happy to see you here. Since this disaster struck, we have lost many relatives and friends who cannot see each other again, so no matter what, we can see some old friends." We met and are still living well, which is a lucky thing!"
Sirius, who was sitting on a broken log, said hello to Willie, and couldn't help but say these words. Finally, he shook his head again, shrugged and said:
"When did I start imitating Remus? Only he can say such pretentious words."
However, after hearing his last words, Willy seemed to have some feelings. She didn't know what she was thinking of again, but her eyes suddenly flickered and she whispered in a daze:
"People are always influencing each other."
She said this soliloquy very softly, but the forest was still quiet at this time, so it was obvious that Sirius still heard her.
And with Sirius's keenness, even if he didn't know much about Willie himself, after combining some facts that had already happened, it was easy to hear some of the meaning in his words.
Sure enough, after just a moment's consideration, he looked thoughtfully towards Weili again.
"Miss Blois, I heard that you have been with Maka for a while, is that true?"
"Well?"
When Sirius mentioned this, Willie, who was a little dazed, came back to her senses.
"Yes, right over at Hogwarts - Maka helped me eliminate some of my hidden dangers." She explained simply, and then said with some confusion, "Is there any problem?"
"Well," Sirius pondered for a moment, and then sighed, "Actually, it's nothing... But there are already many people who want to know where that guy has been and what he has done during this time. You know, everyone is worried about him..."
Although he said this, Sirius didn't think about these trivial matters at all - he still remembered the ice coffin that Ron brought back from London a few days ago, which suddenly shocked everyone present, and at the same time left a lasting impression on everyone I have deeper doubts and speculations.
Now that he saw Willie, thinking about the time he spent with her after Maka disappeared in the disaster area in England, Sirius wanted to get some news about Maka from her mouth, but he was not sure whether he should ice it. Let the other party know about the coffin.
Willie is currently leading the Blois family's fighting team, and every move can affect many people and things. Naturally, Sirius doesn't want to add more unnecessary trouble to the already turbulent situation in front of him just because of his words. variables.
So after hesitating in his mind, he decided not to mention "that matter" with Weili for the time being.
Of course, not to mention Sirius's inner calculations, after all, as long as he didn't tell anyone, since the Granger camp kept the ice coffin incident strictly confidential, Willy would have no way of knowing. At this moment, when the other party only talked about being worried about Maka, he naturally stopped thinking about him.
"Maka has his own thoughts, and I'm not very clear about it," she shook her head, "but at least I think that once everyone really needs him, he will come back to us immediately. What's more... I think he must be somewhere we can't see right now, fighting alone to end all this!"
"Yeah, that's right." Sirius put all the thoughts in his heart aside for a moment, then nodded, but then he chuckled again, "It seems that I have heard these words from more than one person. .”
While the two were talking, the temporary camp had been set up, and the two three-person teams that went out for exploration and reconnaissance also returned one after another.
Soon, they were heard briefly reporting their gains to the old housekeeper.
"... You can see the battlefield from a distance after leaving the forest in the north, but there seems to be some mist there, and we dare not approach easily. It's just that we feel that there is something unusual about the mist - Mr. Butler, you should know what I mean. "
Speaking of the unusual fog, everyone present who was already familiar with the changes in the disaster naturally didn't need to say much. The old housekeeper immediately nodded to express his understanding.
It's just that the dark clouds have already moved eastward with the collapse of Germany's western defense line. The fog that still emerges at this time is somewhat intriguing.
After thinking about it for a moment, the old housekeeper turned to look at the other team and asked:
"Where are you?"
"There are some living zombies wandering around the outskirts of the forest to the east, but they are not many in number. There are almost no enemies in the forest - it seems that the army of living zombies has indeed concentrated its combat power on the frontal battlefield and has little interest here. In addition, , We haven’t met anyone from the Federation or the Brandt family, and they probably haven’t arrived yet.”
The witch who led the investigation said this, and the old housekeeper nodded slightly in understanding.
"Okay, you guys should go drink some water and take a rest!"
After watching the two teams leave for the time being and sit down to rest, the old housekeeper turned to look at Willie, who was talking to Sirius.
"Miss, should we... wait here directly? Or should we first send a team of people to explore the battlefield to the north?"
He knew that Willy must have heard the reports of the two investigation teams just now, so he did not spend any more time relaying the investigation situation.
And then, Willy put aside her chat with Sirius for a moment, thought for a while and said:
"We need to explore, but we are not going to the north, but to the east - I need to get a real-hand understanding of the current situation of the German people."
"People?"
Hearing what Willy said, the old housekeeper was a little surprised. After thinking about it for a while, he roughly understood what Willy was thinking.
"Miss, you mean... you want to see the true attitude of the Brandt family?"
When a disaster invades, the people must be the first to face desperate situations. This principle will never change. We had received news in advance that the Brandt family had joined forces with the German Muggle Prime Minister about a few weeks ago...or even earlier to start evacuating people from the northwest to the southeast.
However, saying it is one thing, but doing it is another, not to mention that this will definitely be a huge project. Several weeks have passed at this time, and from the conditions of the city near the battlefield, we may be able to indirectly understand how seriously the Brandt family really takes this matter.
To be honest, the Blois family still does not have high trust in the "character" of the Brandt family.
"I understand, then, miss, I will send someone to check the situation in the city."
The old housekeeper quickly stood up and said this.
