At the entrance to the basement of the manor villa, Ramiro and two bodyguards were guarding here.
They obviously hadn’t slept all night.
The two bodyguards looked quite energetic, but Ramiro had already begun to doze off.
Hearing the footsteps, the two bodyguards immediately looked over.
Seeing that it was Scott, they obviously relaxed a little and nodded to him silently.
Scott smiled at them, walked to Ramiro who was dozing off in the chair, and patted him on the shoulder gently.
“Huh?”
Ramiro was suddenly awakened, raised his head and saw Scott and asked in surprise, “Scott, why are you here?”
He looked down at the watch on his hand, “It’s still so early.”
Scott said, “I can’t sleep, come and take a look.”
He walked to the entrance of the basement and asked the bodyguard next to him, “Can I go in and take a look?”
“Of course, sir.” The bodyguard nodded and made a gesture of invitation.
Scott walked into the basement, and the bodyguard behind him turned on the light in the basement.
“Woo… woo.”
The thief Fletch was tied up with thick chains, his eyes were covered, and something was stuffed in his mouth.
Scott looked carefully and found that his robe and boots had been stripped off, leaving only his shirt and pants.
It seems that Uncle Caleb is still very cautious. He took advantage of the time when the thief was controlled by the truth serum to completely eliminate the threat on him.
At this time, Ramiro also walked into the basement.
He pointed to the broken cardboard box in the corner of the basement, “Those are all his things. Don’t say, this guy has so many things hidden on him!”
Scott nodded, walked to the cardboard box and looked down.
“You really should check his things carefully.” Ramiro said, “These things are too dirty and smelly. This is for you.”
He handed Scott an old golf club.
Scott reached out to take it, picked up the dirty robe from the cardboard box and threw it on the ground, and then used the club to pick up several magic items in the cardboard box.
A similarly dirty deformed lizard skin bag, a gray ring with cracked gemstones, and a small black lamp that could not be seen at all.
These three items still had some obvious magic fluctuations.
There were also some other broken jewelry and ornaments, and the remaining magic on them was very weak.
Scott looked at it for a while, carefully distinguished the magic circuits engraved on the ring and the lamp, and roughly understood the functions of these two magic items.
The main function of the ring is protection, which can roughly defend against some less powerful evil spells, but it is actually not as good as the armor spell.
The lamp is a black magic item, which can actively trigger a very aggressive poison spell when used.
Although Scott does not know alchemy, he still has some vision under the education of the Ravenclaw tutor.
These two magic items are only made with relatively basic alchemy, and they are not great treasures, not to mention that they are both damaged.
As for the deformed lizard skin bag, due to its characteristic that only the owner can open it, Scott cannot take out the contents.
Unless Fletch dies.
Scott shook his head, ignored Fletch’s groaning, threw away the old bat in his hand, and walked out of the basement with Ramiro.
Ramiro told the two bodyguards and returned to the hall with Scott.
He ran to the kitchen, took out two bottles of water from the refrigerator, and handed one to Scott.
“My dad told me that you are going back to England?” he asked.
Scott unscrewed the bottle of water and took a sip, then nodded, “This matter must be resolved as soon as possible.”
Ramiro gulped down several big gulps of water, put his arm around Scott’s shoulders, and said with a smile, “My dear cousin, take me with you.”
“Don’t even think about it.” Scott refused flatly and broke free from his arms.
Ramiro didn’t pester him.
He asked curiously, “Is there really such a big gap between wizards and ordinary people?”
Scott glanced at him and chose to tell the truth, “There are too few wizards, so they have to use strict confidentiality laws to hide themselves. This is all to protect themselves.”
Ramiro laughed twice, “I thought wizards would look down on ordinary people.”
“Of course, there are also many guys who can’t recognize the reality.” Scott said, “But sober wizards know the real reason for the implementation of the wizard confidentiality law.”
Ramiro reacted quickly, “That is to say, in addition to the descendants of ordinary people like you, the so-called magic world also has those guys who are wizards for generations.”
Scott shrugged his shoulders, “This is the internal contradiction of wizards. Most wizards value bloodline more than ordinary people.”
“So you have a hard time in the magic world?” Ramiro patted Scott’s shoulder.
“No, I live very well.” Scott smiled confidently, “Bloodline doesn’t mean anything.”
Ramiro was stunned for a moment, and patted Scott’s shoulder again, “Cool, you are worthy of being my cousin Ramiro.”
After that, he asked a lot of questions about wizards and the magic world with great interest.
What he was most interested in was Scott’s study life at Hogwarts.
Scott only gave some brief answers.
Finally, he did not forget to remind Ramiro not to tell anyone about this.
Ramiro patted his chest and said, “Of course, even if I tell everyone, no one will believe it.”
“Hey, you know, my cousin is a wizard!” He performed and then laughed himself out loud.
Scott had been talking and laughing with him for the whole morning, and his mood was better.
At 6 o’clock in the morning, Caleb came down from upstairs.
“Good morning.”
He didn’t ask Scott why he got up so early, and after saying good morning, he started to make coffee.
“Your cabin will be delivered soon.”
Caleb sat down on the sofa with coffee and said to Scott.
Scott nodded and asked, “Thank you, uncle, I need to shrink the cabin and take it away, and I don’t want others to see me when I cast a spell.”
Caleb put down the coffee cup and took out his mobile phone, “I will ask them to unload the cabin at the intersection outside.”
Scott thanked again.
At this time, Ramiro poured two cups of coffee and brought them over.
He handed the coffee in his left hand to Scott, and said to Caleb, “Dad, you are right, Scott really doesn’t want to take me to the magic world to see it.”
Caleb just glanced at him and said nothing.
Scott took the coffee and said to Ramiro with a smile, “Do you know that the most famous children’s comic book in the British wizarding world is called The Adventures of Mad Muggle Martin Miggs? If you want to have the same treatment as Mr. Martin Miggs, then you can try to break into the wizarding world.”
