Volume 4: The Sea and the Ship Heading North Chapter 256: Terrorist Organization without Problems
After Fox came to the deck, he did not stay with Jon.
It was specially placed in a hidden place. After all, the Hogwarts was still disguised as Durmstrang's ship, and the phoenix was too eye-catching in the wizarding world. Most wizards would associate the phoenix with Dumbledore, not to mention Voldemort's men.
Jon did not have any hope in his heart. It was obvious that these wizards had come with bad intentions. Moreover, even if they did not see through his disguise, they still had reasons to take action. Durmstrang's reputation was not absolutely safe.
Therefore, after arriving on the deck, Fawkes was told to stay alert at all times and to pay attention to the gestures John gave him. If the situation was not good, he would immediately go to Dumbledore for help.
The speed of a broom flying in the sky is obviously much faster than that of a boat sailing on the sea.
The wizards in black robes were getting closer and closer to Jon and his friends, and Jon had already transformed into Johnson and was waiting.
He asked George to go into the cabin and suspend all classes so that the students would be on guard in case the worst situation happened and the students in the cabin were not prepared at all.
Only Neville and Colin were left by Jon's side. The lookout with some freckles on his face seemed a little nervous, but after seeing Jon's calm expression, his emotions were greatly relieved. He took a deep breath and became relaxed as usual.
At this time, Rabastan and his men had already flown to a position parallel to the side of the Hogwarts ship.
Without any words of greeting, he first tried to drive the flying broom directly to the deck, but just like Helge and Heinz before, he could not control the fall of the broom no matter what he did. It was as if there was an indestructible film covering the entire ship, preventing them from getting on board.
Jon's originally calm expression turned obviously cold.
"It is very rude to break in without the owner's permission, isn't it, sir?"
His eyes swept across Rabastan's face, and also looked at Helge and Heinz who were following behind him, whom he had just met yesterday.
When Helgi and Heinz looked at Jon coldly, their expressions were normal. They certainly had nothing to be ashamed of. Yesterday's politeness was just an act. Now that they had an absolute advantage in numbers, there was no need to continue pretending.
Rabastan didn't seem to care at all about Jon's questioning. After trying to land directly on the deck without success, he stared at Jon's eyes.
"Professor Spence Johnson? Has your school trip, which was originally scheduled for the Christmas holidays, been extended? It's already the first day of school, right? Why haven't you returned yet?"
Jon calmly pinched the hand hidden behind his back and extended his index finger in the direction of Fox.
Fox got his hint, and the next moment, he disappeared from the ship silently.
"We are on our way back. Even if we don't choose to return, we are still teaching on the sea. What does this have to do with you?" Jon asked in a cold voice, "Who are you? European Aurors?"
There was sarcasm in his words, and he did not show any fear in the face of the large numbers of Rabastan people.
In response to this title, Rabastan not only did not show the slightest sign of anger on his face, but he even smiled.
"Perhaps it won't be long before we can really become European Aurors. But now, Mr. Johnson, regardless of whether this is your real title or not, I suggest you immediately remove all protective magic from this ship and let us go up to search and be questioned. If we can confirm your identity and the purpose of your voyage, then everything will be easy to deal with. After all, we haven't had any direct conflict with Durmstrang yet. But if you want to try to resist... this is an attempt that will easily make you regret it!"
There was no disguising the arrogance and threat in his words, and behind him, more than twenty wizards in black robes had raised their wands in unison and aimed at the Hogwarts!
Even though they had seen many big scenes, Neville and Colin swallowed subconsciously when they were pointed at by so many wands.
At this time, George, who had settled the lower grade students in the cabin, also came out, followed by a dozen third and fourth grade students.
As soon as they arrived on the deck, they felt the explosive atmosphere. After seeing the wands pointed at them, they drew their own wands without hesitation!
At this moment, Jon became the odd one out among everyone present. He made no move to draw his wand, and his eyes never left Rabastan's sight.
"Even if you don't have to introduce yourselves, you can't find another company in Europe or even the world that is so arrogant and contemptuous."
He said lightly.
"Your master just lost to Dumbledore. As his subordinate, you didn't know how to keep your tail between your legs and behave yourself for a while. You dare to come out and bite and bark?"
Faced with such light words, which inexplicably made people feel a fire of evil, Rabastan's face became ferocious.
In fact, he had no way of being sure whether this ship had any connection with the man who had ruined his master's plan at sea.
But now the Lestrange brothers will never let go of any tiny possibility. If this possibility becomes a reality, they will be giving up their own lives!
Therefore, he brought so many people here because he was determined to search this magic ship, which was obviously from Durmstrang, thoroughly at all costs, and at the same time dig out the memory of the person in charge of the ship to find out whether the people on the ship were related to the person they were looking for!
As for if you find the wrong person, and this ship is just an ordinary professor taking his students on a school trip, so what?
They were Death Eaters.
Before occupying Britain and France, it was a recognized terrorist organization.
What's wrong with a terrorist group hijacking a magic school's ship?
Even if they blew up the ship and sank it directly, there would be no problem in killing everyone on board!
John also realized at the first moment that Rabastan and his men had come with malicious intentions that would never give up, so he directly gestured to Fawkes to go find Dumbledore immediately.
And now, he wants to buy time.
