The boy, who had walked away, didn't see it. The wizard quickly turned back, pushed open the shop door and went inside. A moment later, he came out again and walked in the direction the boy had left.
The middle-aged man resting on a bench by the roadside sighed, slowly stood up, and looked in the direction the group had left.
……
Holding the envelope, the boy followed the shop numbers along the roadside and gradually walked into a quiet alley.
He walked around in circles, but still couldn't find the address on the letter.
“Brother…” The little boy gripped his hand tightly.
"What's wrong?" the boy asked.
"I'm a little scared..." the little boy said, his voice trembling with tears.
Looking at the narrow alleyway and the tightly closed doors on both sides, the boy turned around decisively: "Let's go back first and have Dad bring us to deliver the letter."
But they froze after taking only two steps.
The wizard who had sent them to deliver the message was standing at the entrance of the alley.
"Bad boy, you don't keep your promise."
He said in a voice that sounded like his throat had been scratched, "I want to go home before the letter has even been delivered."
The boy quickly drew his wand, shielding his younger brother behind him, and tried to explain, "I didn't break my promise, I just couldn't find the place."
As the wizard approached them, he said, "I know the place. Let me take you there."
"You can deliver it yourself!"
The little boy suddenly shouted, "We want to go home! Dad is waiting for us!"
"No, he won't wait for you. He doesn't know where you went either."
The wizard threw a crumpled piece of paper at their feet. The boy looked down and saw that the paper still had his own handwriting on it.
That was a note he left for his father.
He took two steps back as if frightened, then his wand suddenly flicked: "He faints!"
A red beam of light shot towards the wizard. He hadn't expected that this seemingly young child would know the Stunning Spell, and in his haste, he fell to the ground!
The spell grazed his hair and hit the wall.
"Run!"
The boy, unaware that his spell had missed, grabbed his younger brother and ran, when suddenly he heard a voice: "Petrify them all!"
The two of them immediately collapsed, their bodies stiffening.
Another elderly witch appeared before them, slowly putting away her wand.
The witch let out a grating laugh that sounded like scratching glass, and said, "Little brats have sharp claws too, don't they?"
The wizard, wiping blood from his nose and cursing, walked up from behind, kicked the petrified boy, sending him rolling, and pointed his wand at his heart, coldly saying, "Crucible!"
"boom!"
With a loud bang, blood suddenly spurted from the wizard's chest, and he was sent flying backward.
Chapter 122 Investigation and Pursuit
The witch looked quite old, but her reactions were quick.
She immediately patted herself, and a large cloud of black smoke immediately rose from the spot, obscuring everything.
The boy and the boy struggled to open their eyes, only to hear a series of crackling explosions and incantations whistling through the smoke.
After an unknown amount of time, the smoke dissipated, and a seemingly impoverished wizard, wand in hand, slowly approached.
As the black mist dissipated, two people were revealed inside...
Or rather... one and a half people.
The sorcerer was tightly bound to the ground with ropes, his face swollen, his legs stuck together, unable to move.
His chest was struck by a shattering curse, and it was covered in blood. His body was also covered with scabies, pustules, and marks that looked like burns.
He couldn't make a sound; only his eyes darted around in terror.
The petrification curse on the boy and the younger boy was lifted, and he quickly covered his younger brother's eyes to prevent him from looking around.
The witch, who looked like a strange sorceress, disappeared more than half of herself... but her lower half remained in place.
"What happened to her?" he asked in alarm.
“They split apart.” The middle-aged gray-robed wizard who saved them said slowly, “This kind of accident happens when you’re not focused and calm enough during Apparition.”
"Will she die?" the boy asked, frowning.
"Who knows?" the gray-robed wizard said nonchalantly. "I've never split myself."
The boy's pupils contracted sharply when he saw the magic wand in the man's hand.
The gray-robed wizard took out a bottle of potion and poured it all into the wizard's mouth.
The boy stammered, trying to dissuade him, "Um... murder is illegal?"
"Murder?" The gray-robed wizard rolled his eyes at him irritably. "What are you thinking? This is the Water of Life and Death."
"Oh..." The boy scratched his face awkwardly, then relaxed completely.
The "Water of Life and Death," also known as the "Living Hell Soup," may sound like a drug with names like "death" and "hell," but it's actually just a potent sleeping pill.
"Let's go, I'll see you off."
The gray-robed wizard picked up the crumpled paper from the ground and handed it to the boy, saying, "Also, there was no curse on that letter. You've been deceived."
"Thank you for saving us."
The little boy suddenly pulled his brother's hand off and looked at the man, saying:
“I’m Wright from the Mancini family, my brother’s name is Theo… What’s your name?”
You can call me Vernal.
The grey-robed wizard spoke calmly, while Theo watched him silently from the side.
“Is there a problem?” Werner asked him.
Theo glanced back and asked, "Aren't we just going to leave those two behind?"
“Of course not,” Wenard said. “Who are they? Why are they targeting you brothers? Do they have any accomplices?”
"These things need to be investigated thoroughly... but that's all the help I can offer."
When he reached the alley entrance, he stopped and looked at Theo, saying:
"Go find your parents and elders and tell them about this. Whether they report it to the Aurors or investigate it themselves is up to you."
Theo paused for a moment, then nodded: "I understand... And what about you?"
"Look at those two guys, can we leave them alone?"
The wizard waved his hand and said, "You'd better hurry. I'll stay here and keep watch until the people you've found arrive."
"it is good."
Theo glanced at him, nodded, and quickly pulled his brother toward the beverage shop.
His father, John Mancini, had returned and was standing at the shop entrance, looking out.
Seeing the two children running over, she immediately said angrily, "Didn't I tell you two to stay in the store? Why are you running around with your little brother?"
Theo quickly recounted what had happened.
John Mancini's face grew increasingly grim as he listened, and despite the two children standing right in front of him, he still felt waves of fear.
He calmed down a bit after hearing that the two had been rescued.
Upon hearing that even the suspected dark wizard had been left behind, his expression changed.
After hearing the whole story, he glared at his son and said, "Stay home and don't go out! I'll deal with you two later!"
Theo's face stiffened.
Then John pointed his wand at the sticky notes on the counter, and several pieces of paper flew out, automatically folding into a simple paper airplane, which then flew away with a whoosh.
Soon after, six or seven male and female wizards came out from the other shops.
As a pure-blood family, the Mancini family, while not as large as the Weasley family, still has quite a few relatives and friends.
Besides his father John, his uncle Jason also runs a magic supply store in Diagon Alley, as do his aunt, cousin, and other relatives.
John Mancini explained the situation to them, and the group was furious, quickly heading towards the alley.
Only Theo's cousin stayed behind to watch over the two children, lest they encounter any further danger.
Theo pretended to be obedient and pulled his younger brother back, whispering to him, "Wright, I have to go out for a bit. Can you distract your older cousin?"
"Leave it to me!" Wright said confidently. "I guarantee I'll complete the mission!"
Immediately afterwards, he let out a deafening cry: "Waaaaah..."
"What's wrong?" Theo's cousin was startled and hurried over to comfort him.
