Chapter 123 Fingers and Rings
Chapter 123 Fingers and Rings
"It seems that corruption and prevarication in the bureaucracy are widespread in the world of wizards and ordinary people... Let's go, Harry." Tim picked up the suit jacket that was thrown aside, walked over, and put his hand on Harry Li squeezed her shoulder.
There is no need to entangle with these people. If Bruce has been working hard for more than ten years and has not been able to change Gotham's judicial and police system, Harley will naturally not be able to improve the bureaucratic mechanism of the wizarding world tonight.
"It's your job to clean up and deal with the aftermath, right?" Tim compared his surroundings with a stick. The fallen werewolves and blood stains left the alley in a mess.
The two wizarding government workers nodded.
"Also, I have another question." Tim paused briefly, considering his words, "What about the children who were attacked by werewolves and survived? Will you secretly 'clean up the door'?"
"If the victim is a wizard..." The witch shrank her shoulders, as if she was extremely unsure of what she said, "We will... uh... call them to register in our werewolf management system."
"Calling?" Tim raised an eyebrow at the word.That's right, they encountered several unregistered werewolves at once today.
"Actually, our management strategy is positive in the world... er, these few were all smuggled from the UK, and there are very few unregistered werewolves in the United States." The wizard emphasized in vain.
"What are you talking about?" Harry crossed his arms and shook his head with a pouted mouth. "If you knew the exact number, you wouldn't be called 'unregistered'."
"And what if it's a victim among ordinary people?" Tim pressed.
"Uh... this is the freedom of the No-Maj authorities, we... cannot interfere with each other."
To put it bluntly, I just don't care about it, Harry murmured in his heart.
Tim nodded. He was quite satisfied with the answers of the wizards, and he didn't want the wizards to decide the life, death and freedom of these victims.
Just as he was about to leave with his arms around Harry's shoulders, Titus suddenly rushed to Greyback's body—
Bit off one of the werewolf's fingers!
"Evil... spit it out, Titus!" Harry patted the big black dog on the head, but Titus was unmoved.
The two wizard officials were also taken aback, but they just wanted to get rid of Harry and Tim, the two difficult and terrifying little ancestors, as soon as possible.
"It doesn't matter...the werewolf is dead anyway..." The wizard waved his hand, "You probably need to feed him well."
Halle really wanted to protest loudly!Titus eats better than anyone else!
The black dog held a finger contentedly, and Ace and Ace headed towards the underground garage of the Welfare Hospital.
**************
There are many luxury cars parked in the quiet underground garage, and in the hospital upstairs, there are staggered cups of wine, fragrant clothes, and a luxurious charity banquet that is getting better. This contrast makes Harry feel a little dazed—it’s like stepping into another parallel world. world.If it weren't for the blood on her body and brother Tim's hand on her shoulder, everything just now would have seemed like a hallucination to her.
Sure enough, there was an angry Uncle Clark standing next to Timmy's car, and Peter, who had put his head down and put on civilian clothes.
Looking at Harley's dress that was almost completely dyed red, Clark could only hold back his anger for a while, "Are you injured?" The reason he was able to ask this was because he had already checked Harley's body with X-sight in advance— —No physical damage, but magic is hard to say, maybe there is some mental damage that even he can't see?
Just like Peter himself, who was obviously fine, but rushed back to the banquet to find him, sweating profusely.
Harry shook her head.
"So, is it magic? That's why Peter and I can't find you again?" In his eyes, the alley behind the Welfare Hospital was as usual, without the werewolf Peter mentioned, let alone Harley and Tim.
"Yes, the expulsion spell for ordinary people." Tim replied with a sincere look, "Neither of us was injured, don't worry, Clark. The staff of the Magical Congress of America has shown up and is cleaning up. I'm very sorry today. You were notified when it happened... but Harry managed to protect me."
What does it mean to protect him... Harley almost laughed when he heard Brother Tim's nonsense.
Clark stared at them for a while, then suddenly drooped his shoulders. He rubbed the bridge of his nose and sighed, "Compared to Bruce, you and Dick will at least apologize to me for acting alone..."
"Peter has already told me that it means Harley not to call me. I...express my understanding." Who made him have so many dark histories of being controlled?Magic is scarier than Ivy's kiss.
"And, I already knew who you are..." Clark turned to Peter and emphasized.
Peter makes a grimace, like he's had a bad stomach—Metropolitans are as scary as Gothamites.
No sooner had the boy stepped through the doors of the Daily Planet than Clark saw the red Spider-Man uniform scrunched up in his school bag—Tony Stark's joke, it must be.
"Go home, both of you are tired." Clark waved his hands, "You can make up for the small lessons from the elders later. Bruce will at least ground Harry. I hope you can take this opportunity to reflect."
Harry's expression became as bitter as Peter's.
"Then... I'll go with them. Let's...see you at the hotel?" Peter scratched his head, wanting to stay away from this weird reporter, and make the two Robins obedient and obedient, definitely not ordinary people.
Standing by the open door, Tim shrugged and offered to give Peter a lift.
These three brats must have planned to do something good behind his back... But Clark waved his hand and agreed.
It's been a long night and the kids need to unwind, too.
************
In the back seat, after Titus got into the car, he spit out the werewolf fingers that had been in his mouth for a long time, and put them on Harry's skirt.
Then it sat halfway on its hind legs, its small eyes sparkling, and puffed out to Harry to ask for credit...
Even Peter was taken aback—these Robins, do they still collect loot?
Harry stared in surprise at the bloody finger on the skirt, which had a simple ring on it.
"So this is a gift for me?" Harry asked the big black dog with an innocent face helplessly, "A ring from a werewolf..."
"It's...so sweet?" Despite the kiss, Peter's expression on his fingers was distorted.
"Maybe?" Under Peter's almost collapsed gaze, Harry pinched the werewolf's fluffy finger and took off the ring.
Very rough design style... A large square black stone is inlaid on the simple golden base, which looks like a homemade gift from a three-year-old boy to his mother.
"Okay, I accept it. But... you are not allowed to bite the fingers of any corpse in the future! What if it is poisonous!"
Harry smoothed Titus's neck hair, the big black dog purred comfortably, and Ace, who was already dozing on the seat, lazily opened one eye and glanced at Titus, as if despising it an act of flattery.
"Are you okay? The Cruciatus Curse is no joke..." Harry suddenly remembered what happened to Peter during the battle. She raised her head and softly asked the young man who was sitting quietly beside her.
"So that's the name of the red spell," Peter nodded, and the curly black hair on his forehead swayed with his movements, "I'm fine, it hurts a lot, I won't try to be brave with you, since you are definitely better than me." I know better...but I guess, the uniform protected me? Because the pain only lasted a second and stopped after I fell off the street lamp."
"I later discovered two complicated ghost symbols hidden on the inside of the uniform's arm...it was so small, so I ignored it all the time." Peter's expression was also a little confused, "It should be arranged by Mr. Stark in advance. Maybe he Doctor Strange, please? I'm just guessing...I don't know Doctor Strange, I just heard he's a wizard from the Avengers."
So, that's why Peter didn't scream after being cursed!Harley originally thought that Spider-Man was a once-in-a-century master of pain tolerance; or he was fooled by the pain, which made Harry worry for a long time...
"That's right." Brother Tim, who had been silent in the driver's seat ahead, suddenly turned the steering wheel at an intersection, the car turned and drove off the way home.
"I'll take you to dinner." Tim glanced at Harry from the center rearview mirror, and replied to the doubt in her eyes.
"I noticed you didn't eat anything." Brother Tim, looking relaxed, added to Halle. "I must say, your first social appearance was perfect. But you were so tense."
After puffing out her chest all night, barely eating, and keeping a stiff smile at all the Gotham dignitaries who come to say hello at the banquet - and finally got into a fight with a werewolf, Harley is really hungry now back.
"This is a lady's lesson, taught by Grandpa Afu." Harry leaned against the back seat, unconsciously pinching the ring to play, and finally put it on one of his fingers. , always use the back molars and the like..."
The author has something to say:
*Sirius knew the resurrection stone is a rubbish author's nonsense, the plot needs...
The trigger point that made Sirius suspicious was the act of Dumbledore borrowing the Invisibility Cloak before James died.There are many invisibility cloaks (for example, little Barty wears an invisibility cloak every day after being replaced by his mother from Azkaban), and Dumbledore is also very familiar with the invisible magic (refer to Ha 1 Mirror of Erised, Dumbledore Lido is hiding in the classroom where the mirror is), but he is only interested in the Potter family's invisibility cloak, which may have caused Sirius to put a question mark in his heart?
Then the dog dad might chat with Luna's father and look up the family information?Daddy Dog has always been very well-informed, maybe something happened before he came and told James?
(It can be understood that the author of the garbage is forcing the logic for the needs of the plot...)
