Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts
#434 - Monitoring (asking for monthly ticket recommendation)
Having witnessed the popularity of Anduin's products, numerous companies approached him requesting to be distributors, offering quite favorable terms.
However, Anduin didn't give them an immediate answer, instead taking their contact information, planning to investigate thoroughly before discussing further.
With the help of two assistants, Anduin finally had a chance to relax. He had been so busy with business that he hadn't even had time for dinner.

At this moment, besides a pile of alchemical tools randomly placed for restocking, Anduin also had several boxes of sausages, cured meat, and ham beside him. He casually broke off a few pieces, roasted them over a roaring flame, and devoured them with gusto.
Just then, he received a signal from Hog.
After receiving the message, Anduin nonchalantly took out a wireless earpiece resembling a large bean sprout and put it in his ear, then gently tapped the monocle clipped to his eye socket.
Soon, Hog's adorable puppy face appeared in his field of vision. From Anduin's perspective, Hog was currently at the corner of a building, and to avoid suspicion, he had used the camouflage function of his tactical vest, transforming the entire vest to resemble his fur. So, to onlookers, it just looked like a puppy with a dog collar around its neck. →
And soon, Hog's voice came through his ear.
"Master, I've been following that guy for half the day. After leaving in the afternoon, he first wandered around the market, even visiting your stall, but then he went into an ice cream shop and chatted with two wizards for a long time."
"But since their conversation was all about some kind of charms, I didn't contact you at the time."
"Very good."
Anduin made a fist and held it to his mouth, then said softly, "Since you're contacting me now, does that mean the person has made some unusual move?"
"Correct."
Hog nodded in his vision. "Just now, that man named Sebastian entered the building behind me. Before entering, he specifically used a Disillusionment Charm. This location matches the Thunderbird's location you pinpointed before."
"And shortly after he went in, Aselia also appeared. Although she also used a Disillusionment Charm to become invisible, I could still recognize her with the Echo Glasses. Now all three of them are in this building, but I don't know the situation inside, so I dare not enter rashly. What do you think I should do?"
"Good job, being careful is the right approach."
Anduin nodded slightly, then immediately instructed, "Unleash the 'Surveillance Spider'; I need to know what's going on inside."
"Yes."
Hog shook his adorable little head and then asked, "Sebastian is a researcher at the Alchemy Center. Could there be any warning alchemical equipment inside? Aselia is also inside, will she be exposed if we're discovered?"
"It's precisely because she's inside that I need to know what's going on. I need to know if Aselia is truly loyal. Although using 'Legilimency' on her showed that she wasn't deceiving me, there are many technologies in the Silver Spears that I don't understand. I'm afraid some kind of spell has been cast on her that can bypass lie detection."
"As for being discovered, given Thunderbird's aversion to alchemy and his arrogance, there shouldn't be any problems. Even if they do notice something, they won't immediately suspect Aselia. But if there really is trouble, remember to evacuate immediately."
Anduin instructed Hog methodically. This operation against Thunderbird concerned his upcoming series of plans, so he had to be cautious enough. Even Aselia, who had declared her loyalty, couldn't be fully trusted.
"I understand."
Hog nodded crisply upon hearing this.
Then, a small spider, no bigger than a coin, could be seen crawling off Hog's back and nimbly darting into the building.
Anduin's vision quickly shifted to another scene, close to the ground and moving rapidly, the image transmitted by the 'Surveillance Spider'.
The building appeared to be a Muggle inn or guesthouse of some kind, with many rooms. Fortunately, the Surveillance Spider was very small and could pass through the cracks under the doors of these rooms. After searching several rooms, they finally found their target.
At this moment, in a spacious inn suite, three people wearing black robes and faceless masks were sitting on the sofas in the parlor.
"What exactly happened a year ago?"
Aselia was the first to speak as soon as they met. "Why did you suddenly disappear, and why did it take so long for you to contact me later!"
To avoid giving herself away, Aselia tried her best to maintain her disguise, imitating her former mindset and tone when facing Thunderbird. There was also genuine resentment in her tone, because before Anduin found her, she had no idea what had happened back then.
"You were lurking in the Ministry of Magic, how could you not know what happened?"
Even after a year, Thunderbird's tone was still arrogant. "You're just a waste. It was a miscalculation to send you to England. You couldn't help at all."
"You have the nerve to say that? That night, everything was ruined by your unauthorized actions, leaving me completely unprepared. I didn't even have time to pay attention to the Ministry's situation. By the time I received the Ministry's notification, I didn't even know you were at the scene. If you had told me beforehand, I would have at least had a chance to warn you."
"And the Aurors in the Ministry of Magic were as if they had been cursed, keeping silent about what happened that night. It was only after I saw the Fiendfyre at the scene that I knew you were there."
Aselia complained resentfully, not caring that the other party was her superior. In fact, this kind of situation was very common within the club. Everyone didn't really know each other, so there was no need to build relationships or curry favor.
"Hmph!"
After being lectured by Aselia, Thunderbird knew he was somewhat at fault, but he still stubbornly retorted, "What use would it have been to notify you beforehand, you waste? You're simply a decoration in the Ministry of Magic, not even as good as a decoration. At least some beautiful decorations can enter the department heads' rooms and hear some news."
Thunderbird deliberately emphasized the word 'beautiful', obviously hinting to Aselia, implying that I know your true identity, don't go too far, especially when there are other Silver Spears around.
At this time, 'Sphinx', who had been watching the show all along, also spoke up to smooth things over. "You two should say less. After all, you are still members of the team building the British branch, all in the same boat. There will be plenty of opportunities to cooperate next."
