Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Chapter 504 Kled loves America

"Big business?"

Kret's eyes shone slightly, and the lizard Skaar, who had been stunned, woke up, tilted his head, and stared at Abt with a pair of big eyes with great interest.

Seeing this, Mike and Zhou Hong looked at each other, both of them had such expressions.

In their view, a goblin is a goblin, and the greedy desire for money that is inherent in their race cannot be eradicated no matter what.

But at this moment, Kelie's attitude suddenly turned 180 degrees, and he yelled at Abbott:

"Fuck you brit! Do you think I will bow down to you? Do you think you have the right to be arrogant here with me after doing business with me? Big business, have you ever seen what is big business? You This soil turtle from the English countryside! This is the country of America!"

Abt's face turned livid instantly when he heard this, the fingers of his right hand trembled slightly, and a light brown magic wand was already held in his hand.

Seeing this, Skaar's expression immediately became fierce, and the two goblins who had been hiding in the corner also approached, and the atmosphere at the scene became tense in an instant!

Just when the scene was about to get out of control, Mike held down Abbott's hand holding the wand, nodded to him at the same time, and then crossed the crowd to Kled and pulled down his hood.

"I'm the one who wants to do business with you."

Mike spoke in a flat tone.

On the other side, Kret, who had just been furious just now, was taken aback when he saw Mike's true face, and then showed a meaningful smile.

"Mike Townley! The boss of the Los Santos Group, the black wizard slayer of the country! You have come to the United States? This is really valuable news!"

Hearing this, Mike's face darkened. He had already expected that Klie knew him. After all, with his reputation in the country, it is impossible for the other party to be ignorant of the information dealer, but he never expected that the other party would give him Such a nickname of Secondary School!
As for the second half of Kled's sentence, Mike smiled slightly after hearing it:

"I don't think you can make money off of this news."

As soon as the words fell, a terrifying pressure spread from Mike's body.

This is not the kind of mysterious aura, but the real pressure caused by a large amount of magic power. Under this pressure, the expressions of the two gatekeeper fairies instantly became frightened, and the lizard Skaar was even more frightened. With a cry, he buried his head in Klein's arms, trembling.

Kret's expression was extremely ugly. Mike's strength exceeded his expectations. If the other party did everything here, there would be no way for him and others to survive.

And what made him even more angry was the embarrassing behavior of his pet Skaarl. You must know that Kled himself is a tough guy!

"coward!"

Kled yelled and then punched Skaarl on the head again, knocking him out again.

After doing all this, Kret looked at Mike again and said, panting heavily:
"Okay, I admit that you are qualified to make a deal with me! Tell me, what do you need?"

Kret's attitude was still not good, but Mike didn't care. He withdrew his strength and nodded and said:

"I want all the information on the Flint family. All the information on the other families he has allied with, you understand?"

"The Flint family? The Flint you mean?"

"That's right, it's Flint, one of the 28 sacred clans in the country."

Kret's eyes lit up in an instant, and his attitude suddenly changed. He said a little excitedly and kindly:
"You mean the Flint family is in the United States? Are you going to trouble them?"

"I don't know. If I knew, I wouldn't come here to look for you." Mike said flatly, "Okay, stop talking nonsense, and quickly make an offer."

Klein rubbed his hands excitedly, and after a while, he stretched out two fingers and said:
"Give me a week, and I will try my best to find it. But I want a deposit of three hundred Galleons, and the subsequent remuneration will be based on the integrity of the information."

Mike looked at the two fingers that Klein held up high, and threw out a seamless stretch bag without a word.

Clay didn't mean to count the money, he casually threw his pocket aside, and said to Mike with great interest:
"I guess a big man like you shouldn't come to the United States to travel at this time, right? Why? Are you looking for trouble with the Kent family?"

"It's none of your business."

"No, no, no! Your words are wrong!" Klein shook his head and said, "Actually, besides the intelligence dealer, I also take care of the security business and the sale of various contraband. If you need it, I can satisfy you." Almost everything you ask for!"

Mike gave him a meaningful look, and then said:

"No need. After collecting the information, hand it over directly to Ebout."

After saying that, Mike turned around and left with Abbott and Zhou Hong.

And Kled's is still selling.

"Don't come, come and see Bei Keguan! I have everything here! And although the Kent family is not strong, those vampires and werewolves are still quite troublesome! Dear, I suggest you use magic missiles here!"

Hearing that Mike's complexion darkened, his pace became faster.

What is a magic missile?
It was a hybrid bomb composed of a large number of alchemy bombs. Its power was almost comparable to that of the Fiercefire Curse released by Mike with all his strength. It was stored as a strategic weapon by the Ministry of Magic of various countries.

And Kled, this guy actually wants Mike to use magic missiles to smash a small town!
This is simply a madman!
The three of them ran wildly all the way until they slowed down in the stairwell.

At this time, Zhou Hong, who had been silent all this time, finally pulled down his hood, and looked at Abt with a puzzled expression.

"About, is the person you're looking for reliable? He looks... a bit strange."

"Are you talking about Kret?" Abt gasped. "He really doesn't look like a goblin, but he is absolutely reliable in terms of trading. This has been proven by countless people."

Zhou Hong nodded silently, but Abt still had more to say, and continued:
"That guy Kret is an outright militant. He hates peace and likes chaos and war the most. Any person or other creature, as long as you tell him to destroy it, he will provide all kinds of it at a low price or even free of charge. Weapons, like alchemy bombs. It's easy for him, he has a lot of dwarves and goblins under his hands.

In fact, this guy had always been active in France, and only came to settle in the United States in recent years.According to him, the United States is more to his taste than France! "

The three of them climbed the stairs while talking, and they returned to the ground in a short while.

Before I knew it, it was completely dark outside.

The street where the Scareye Bar is located does not have magic street lights installed like Square Street, so the whole street is completely plunged into darkness after nightfall.

It's just that compared with the daytime, it's much more lively here. A large number of vicious wizards and magical creatures are wandering on the street, and there are many wizards and creatures in ragged clothes lying in the corners. Although it is winter, most of them But I don't have many decent clothes, I can only rely on cardboard boxes and newspapers to keep out the cold, shivering in the cold night.

Here, the likes of Mike and Abbott are clearly outliers, so they deserve all the attention.

Sensing those malicious eyes in the darkness, Zhou Hong's heart was full of doubts.

"Who are these people?"

Zhou Hong frowned and asked.

You must know that this street is also within the scope of Square Street and is protected by Muggle shielding spells, which means that all these people here are wizards or intelligent creatures with magical powers.

But how could such a group of people and creatures have such a miserable life?
"Just like you, smugglers, illegal immigrants, stranded people whose visas have expired but are unwilling to leave... In short, these are all guys who have no status and are not recognized by the Magic Congress of the United States." Abt whispered, saying Then he tightened his windbreaker and said to Mike, "Let's get out of here, it's very dangerous here at night, these people are all outlaws, maybe they will rob us. Although their strength is not very good , but if there is a big trouble and Aurors are attracted, it will not end well, after all, you have no identity."

Hearing this, Mike nodded, and the three of them left the dark and dilapidated street vigilantly, holding wands in their hands.

When the three of them returned to the square street, which was as bright as day, Abbot finally breathed a sigh of relief.

And Zhou Hong looked at the pedestrians in bright clothes coming and going on the square street and the photos of beautiful shops shining with colorful lights on the high place, and a sense of unreality appeared in his heart.

Square Street and that unnamed street are like heaven and hell. The difference between the two is so great that Zhou Hong can't understand why this happens.

You know, even the slums in North London where he once stayed were infinitely better than that nameless street!
Unlike Zhou Hong, Mike's expression has not changed much all the time, and he appears extremely indifferent.

There is no way to do this, he has seen too many such situations in his previous life.

At the same time, he also knew why this happened.

The Magic Congress of the United States describes the United States as a land of freedom and a paradise where all intelligent creatures coexist harmoniously through various chicken soup texts and funny stories.At the same time, he also described the native wizards in the United States as rural nouveau riche who have never seen the world, are stupid and have a lot of money.

This has caused down-and-out wizards and oppressed intelligent creatures all over the world to go crazy and want to go to the United States to start a new life.

But is it really that easy?Facts have proved that the wizards in the United States are not upstarts with a lot of money and stupid people, but shrewd and cunning egoists.

Under the oppression of these people, it is extremely difficult for those poor families who come from all over the world to get the life they want.

The magic world in the United States will become more prosperous and more false by devouring the flesh and blood of these outsiders.

The homeless people on those nameless streets are the best examples. They are the flesh and blood leftovers chewed by the magic world in the United States, and they will never turn over in this life.

Because they have no status in the United States, any Auror or striker who sees them will kill them mercilessly, which makes them unable to change their status quo.

At the same time, although the magic world in the United States always advertises itself as an equal society where all kinds of intelligent life can coexist harmoniously, people's hearts are not so easy to be changed.

Pure-blood wizards look down on half-bloods and Muggle-born wizards, wizards look down on all kinds of non-human creatures, and those non-human creatures are hostile to each other.

To be honest, Mike really understands Kret very well now, the current American magic world is an active active volcano, zz discrimination, jj discrimination, huge wealth gap...

These countless social problems will be detonated at any time, perhaps tomorrow, or next year.

Once these social conflicts accumulated over the years suddenly erupt, the entire American magic world will become a chaotic hell!

Now Kled is just watching in secret, as soon as the riot starts, he and his subordinates will come out to join this feast!
The magic world of the United States is really a paradise for a fighter like Kled.

Looking at the bustling Plaza Street, Mike thought so.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Mike put on his equipment early and sat in the dining room of Abt Villa to enjoy breakfast.

Although he has seen through the crisis that the American magic world will face, he has no interest in these things.

Now the only thing on his mind is to catch the Kents!
After finishing their breakfast in a leisurely manner, Benjamin and Franklin, who had rested all day, also appeared in the dining room with others.

Seeing how they were devouring, Mike nodded silently. They all looked good, so Mike was relieved.

It wasn't until everyone had finished breakfast that Abt hurried in from the outside, and said to Mike with a serious expression:
"Fox town is too remote, and there is no open Floo network node for teleportation there, so I have prepared a Yeqi carriage for you, and my driver will take you there in a while."

"Thank you, Abbott."

Mike nodded to thank Abt, but the latter showed a guilty expression when he heard the words, and hesitated for a while before saying:
"Sorry, Mike, I can't go with you this time. You know, I have developed here, and almost all high-level members of Congress know me. If I participate in this operation, I..."

Abbott was interrupted by Mike just halfway through his words. He lightly punched Abbott in the chest, and then said with a smile:
"Don't say that, remember what I often say? We are friends. Friends should understand each other. You have difficulties. I know this very well. I won't blame you. What's more, you have already helped I'm a lot."

While speaking, Mike shook the information about the Kent family in his hand.

Seeing this, Abt's eyes were slightly red, he opened and closed his mouth for a long time but didn't say anything, and finally gave Mike a big hug.

Smiling and hugging Abbott, Mike turned his head to look at the crowd who had already prepared behind him, and shouted loudly:
"Okay, let's go!"
