Xing Ze nodded: "So, Shaker came to you and wanted you to get close to him."
"That's right." Tonks nodded and slowly transformed back to her original appearance, "And it went surprisingly smoothly, probably because I took after his mother's appearance.
"He took me to his house, where we forced him to reveal the location of the Colosseum. He also admitted that the disappearance of Sage and Ivan was related to the Oil Gang."
"Why not kill him?" Xing Ze asked, "Since it is a secret investigation, I think killing him will not affect future reports."
"Delix was planning to do this, but Charlie said he still had documentary evidence about Greaseface and the Oily Gang, and that evidence was enough for the Ministry of Magic to issue a arrest warrant."
"I understand." Xing Ze nodded, "One of your people rushed in, believed his lies, and then triggered the alarm, or something else."
Tonks admitted with some regret: "It was Fitch, he was a little impatient, but we can't blame him entirely. At that time, we all wanted to catch all these sons of bitches in order to avenge Sage and Alvin.
"Hey, anyway, we messed up. That bastard hid a battle puppet in his bedroom. I mean, who would put a battle puppet in the place where they sleep?"
"Madman knows how to do it." John whistled, "That night must be very thrilling."
"It's so thrilling that you can't imagine. Fortunately, we all escaped."
Xing Ze thought about it carefully and said regretfully: "We have basically found out what you mentioned."
"Ah, this is what Director Scrimgeour and we are confused about. How did you find this out?"
"Read a book, ask the bartender, go to the library, do you believe what I say?" John answered.
"Don't kid me." Tonks frowned, with dissatisfaction in her tone.
"That's the truth, Tonks, but some details have been omitted." Xing Ze smiled and said, "But I will tell you everything."
Of course I made it all up, he said in his heart.
Half an hour later, Tonks leaned on her seat and cursed in a low voice, "What the hell, that's all we rely on? "The Last Days of the Death Eaters", "The Holy Twenty-Eight Tribes", and the history of the Avery family...
Are you sure you're not kidding me?"
"Don't be surprised, kid." John lit up his first cigarette, "I still think he is bragging."
Xing Ze ignored John. He took the sugar cube from the table, took out one and said, "Now, there are three problems we need to solve. The train attack..." He put the sugar cube on the document.
"The disappearance of the Auror," there was another sugar cube on the document, "and the missing fragments." Xing Ze put the third sugar cube on it.
"Master Dumbledore also believes that these three things are connected." Tonks agreed, "but apart from the fragments, we can't find anything that can connect these three things together."
"Avery Family." Xing Ze placed the last sugar cube in the middle of the other three sugar cubes.
"We have no evidence that the Everly family is involved in these things." Tonks objected, "I do think this is all a conspiracy of the Oil Gang."
"It's not important. The focus now is still on the Gunyou Gang. I believe that as long as we catch their top brass, we can get more clues."
"I'm afraid that's unlikely."
"Wait, wait." John blew out the smoke from his mouth, "What does this mean?"
"We also arranged manpower in Knockturn Alley. After the incident at the Colosseum, Director Scrimgeour asked them to raid the base of the Oil Gang, but they only captured some low-level gangsters. The senior management of the Oil Gang and
The middle layer has all disappeared.”
"What? You mean, you haven't caught the entire high-level and middle-level people of the Gunyou Gang? Not one of them?" John exclaimed excitedly, "How is that possible? We saw a lot of people this morning, Charlie, Charlie still went
Pass Mitte Antique Shop.”
"Keep your voice down, John." Tonks reminded. "Director Scrimgeour thinks our operation has been leaked, and the Oil Gang must have known the plan in advance."
Xing Ze said to himself thoughtfully: "That's why they set up an ambush in the Colosseum."
Tonks smiled bitterly. If Xing Ze and the others hadn't broken up the ambush, I'm afraid this secret investigation would have suffered heavy losses.
"Damn it." John took a deep drag on his cigarette, "Have you found the leaker?"
Tonks shook her head helplessly.
"That's why Scrimgeour agreed to share information with us, isn't it?"
"I'm just here to exchange information." Tonks spread her hands, "I don't know anything else."
"Hell, what can you offer us?" John complained, "We have checked these things ourselves."
"Who is this?" Xing Ze picked up a photo, which showed a man wearing a plague mask.
John came over and took a look: "The mad doctor, the celebrity in Knockturn Alley, the master of drug making, I guess he must have disappeared too."
Tonks nodded.
"Great." John smoked a cigarette angrily.
"Who is this person?" Xing Ze clicked on the third photo. It was an old man in formal clothes, probably in his sixties, with white hair and beard.
"He's Joe Clemens," Tonks said. "A real estate agent from Glastonbury."
"kindness?"
"He has been in contact with the Gunyou Gang. Shakur sent people to check. It's all regular business matters. There is nothing worth noting for the time being."
Xing Ze took the photo and asked, "Do you mind if I take it with me?"
"It doesn't matter."
Xing Ze put the photo into his ring and said with a little disappointment: "It seems that the clues you can provide are very limited."
Probably to save some face, Tonks said: "Director Scrimgeour asked me to take the message. He promised to try his best to help you."
"Tell him we appreciate it. Can I ask you a few questions?"
"sure."
"Have you been back to the Essex Hotel before?"
Tonks' expression changed slightly, and she thought for a moment before replying: "Yes, I went back and checked the room rented by Sage and Alvin."
"Why?"
"That room will be rented until the end of this month. No one can go in except us and the hotel staff. And Sage also asked the hotel people not to clean the room. Shakur and Delis restarted the investigation after
I went there once to look for missing clues, but found nothing.
"But my teacher taught me that everything must be confirmed by myself. So I went and found this."
Tonks took out a small glass bottle from the witchcraft bag, and inside was a bunch of gray hair.
