Lin Ze squatted in the abandoned factory and continued to compete with the diary.
It's just that the diary stopped paying attention to him.
"You made a sound." Lin Ze took the wand and poked the diary again.
No response.
"You're pretending to be an expert if you don't talk, right?"
Still no response.
Lin Ze rolled his eyes and was about to find a cesspit to stuff the diary into so that he could taste the cold violence.
The communication badge in my pocket suddenly buzzed.
Taking out the badge, Ben's voice burst out from inside.
"Lin! Where are you? Karkaroff, we discovered the whereabouts of Karkaroff!"
Lin Ze's hand shook and the badge almost fell to the ground.
"What?"
If this guy doesn't just stay at Norway, why would he come to Britain?
Damn, isn't this causing trouble for yourself?
"Yes, Knockturn Alley"Erotica" hotel, a Auror just reported Scrimgeour, Scrimgeour asked me to tell you that you are looking for Karkaroff recently..."
"Okay, I got it, I'll be there right away." Lin Ze sighed.
I had to put the diary back into the wooden box.
"I'll let you go for now, hum."
Lin Ze stuffed the wooden box back into Undetectable Extension Box, stood up and shook the dirt off his robe.
Damn it Karkaroff, you promised Norway to just stay here, but here you are Britain in just a few days?
"If someone catches me like this, I'll make sure that all those who have it and don't have it will be taken out."
Lin Ze became more and more angry as he thought about it, rushed out from the abandoned factory, and directly activated "Apparition".
"Crack!"
With a soft sound, Lin Ze appeared in a dark alley near Knockturn Alley.
He pulled up the hood of his cloak and walked quickly in the direction of the "Erotica" hotel.
Knockturn Alley still looks like a ghost, and there is a musty smell even in broad daylight.
The doors and windows of the shops on both sides were closed, and occasionally a guy whose face could not be seen clearly passed by in a hurry.
Lin Ze pulled the hood down again.
"Erotica" hotel, as you can tell from the name, it is not a serious place.
Knockturn Alley's hotels all have the same character. There is a faded signboard at the door, and the windows are covered with thick curtains. I don't know what kind of tricks are going on inside.
Lin Ze As soon as he arrived at the door of the hotel, before he could go in, he saw two familiar figures coming out of the alley next to him.
It's Kingsley and this.
"Lin!" Ben waved to him vigorously, waving his arms like windmills.
Lin Ze It was too late to pretend not to see him, so he had no choice but to face him.
"Why are you here too?"
"Scrimgeour let us come over and watch." Kingsley lowered his voice.
"Auror Office has sent two teams over there, blocking the front and back of the hotel. We have also set up Anti-Apparition Jinx here."
Lin Ze's heart skipped a beat.
"It's blocked? Who gave the order?"
"Crouch." Kingsley said.
"Karkaroff is a Class A wanted criminal. Crouch personally approved the action order and asked Scrimgeour to select several people for support."
Lin Ze remained calm on his face, but in his heart he had already scolded Karkaroff.
Why don't you hide it in Norway and come back to do it?
Traveling?
Ben was still chattering. "I heard that Karkaroff checked in under a false name yesterday afternoon. He was registered as 'Novikov' and brought a big suitcase with him. The hotel owner thought he looked similar to the wanted poster and reported him as Auror."
"This boss is really a good citizen!" Lin Ze said angrily.
"Who says it isn't?" I thought Lin Ze was praising the boss.
"Okay, you two are keeping an eye on him here, I'm going to catch him out." Lin Ze rolled his eyes at Ben.
"Then be careful." Kingsley said.
"Don't worry." Lin Ze waved his hand and directly opened the door of "Erotica".
The moment Lin Ze pushed open the door of the "Erotica" hotel, a strange smell of cheap perfume and old musty smell hit his face.
The front hall was not big, and an old man as thin as a bamboo pole was sitting behind the counter, looking at him with his cloudy eyes.
"Staying in a hotel?" The old man's voice was dry.
"Looking for someone." Lin Ze lifted his hood back and revealed his face, "Where does Mr. Novikov live?"
The old man stared at him for two seconds, then stretched out a finger and pointed slowly at the stairs. "Second floor, on the left at the end of the corridor, but I want to remind you, Auror has already surrounded this place."
"Oh?"
Lin Ze raised his eyebrows, "Then you still dare to let me in?"
The old man snorted from his nostrils and continued to read his "Daily Prophet".
Lin Ze chuckled and walked towards the stairs.
The stairs are very narrow and the wooden steps creak when you step on them.
As he walked, he was thinking quickly in his mind. Karkaroff was blocked on the second floor, with Auror in front and behind, and Anti-Apparition Jinx blocking the entire area.
For anyone else, this would indeed be a dead end.
But Lin Ze has "Boundary Break", which ignores all space blockades, otherwise he wouldn't have walked in like that.
The corridor on the second floor was so narrow that it could only accommodate two people walking sideways. The lights were dim, and half of the wallpaper peeled off, revealing the blackened wooden boards underneath.
Lin Ze walked to the door at the end of the corridor and stood in front of it, looked around to make sure no one was following, then raised his hand and knocked three times.
No one responded.
He knocked three more times and whispered in Norway: "It's me, open the door."
There was a rustling sound inside, and after a while, the door was opened a crack.
Karkaroff's frightened face emerged from the crack in the door. The moment he saw Lin Ze, his whole body seemed to have been ripped out of his bones, and he slid to the ground along the door panel.
"Lin...Mr. Lin... Why are you here... Have they already..."
"Shut up." Lin Ze pushed the door in and closed the door behind her back.
The room was in a mess as if it had just been ransacked, clothes were scattered everywhere, and a large box lay open at the end of the bed, filled with messy items.
The curtains were tightly drawn, and only a small lamp on the bedside table was on.
"Why did you come to Britain if you didn't just stay at Norway?" Lin Ze scolded him in a low voice.
"I... you took all my money away last time... I... I can't eat anymore..." Karkaroff said without tears.
"Trash, how can you, a wizard, starve to death?" Lin Ze growled angrily.
"But... but I don't dare to use magic casually... I'm afraid of being discovered..."
"Then you came here without fear of being discovered?"
"Well... someone taught me a word before... it's called... darkness under the lamp..."
"..."
Lin Ze now wants to find the guy who taught Karkaroff words randomly, cut him into bones and feed him to the dogs!
"Okay, okay, now is not the time for small talk. There are Auror and "Anti-Apparition Jinx" all outside. They have locked up this area. How do you want to go?"
"Then... then... what should we do..." Karkaroff really cried this time.
"Damn it, you old man, why are you crying, you loser!" Lin Ze kicked Karkaroff directly, knocking Karkaroff to the corner and knocking down a clothes hanger with a bang.
