Chapter 25 - Level 15 [part 7]. Negative consequences of returning (2/2)
I was despairing and then I thought about system.
'System can you help.'
But its answer pushed even further into despair.
[Reach level 45.]
*After… honestly stopped counting…*
Most of the times I was caught by this… auror. He always gets me. Whenever I succeed with initial check, he becomes suspicious of me, so he asks to read my memory deeper, and that's where it gets hard. Plus my mental exhaustion due to relieving this for god-knows-how-often scene, was adversely affecting my thinking capabilities. But I finally succeeded.
Auror was still suspicious, but he couldn't do a thing. They checked all memories at a day of robbery. They even rechecked them for a second time.
I've finally done it! The moment those idiots left I've overwritten one of useless saves I made. Finally, I can rest.
*Next day*
I woke up and helped with breakfast as always. Then I went for a run. After returning, had a shower and went to work.
Day was nice and peaceful. Nothing really happened.
Because I had to match my timing with original timeline. I couldn't just not go to work or slack off at running, because they may check it. Because of that I had no time to learn new skills or go to library. All in all, I feel like I wasted a month of my life.
Hopefully, next months will be calmer.
*POV. 2 weeks later in the ministry.*
”We checked everyone in London who matches the description. We also checked all kids with metamorphamagus talent, in case culprit changed his look. Everyone is clean. So, what do we next?”
”You ask me, who should I ask?”
”We need to report this to the Kevil Joyce. That auror is very scary.”
”Yeah. I heard he was participating in the war during ”You-Know-Who” came to power.”
”Should we just send an owl?”
”Probably? Also, he said he will help us, but he only goes with us on interviews with kids sometimes. Moreover, he just stares at them and doesn't ask any questions. ”True! Why he even comes with us, if he doesn't do a thing!”
In that moment, somebody opened the door of the cabinet and strode in.
”Any progress?”
It was the auror.
”Mister Joyce, we checked everyone on the list.”
”All checked people have no memories of robbery.”
”Okay. As I expected. Close the case.”
”Sorry?”
”What?”
”Close the case. Robberies won't repeat.”
One of the workers was unconvinced
”Forgive me for being blunt, but on what grounds we are closing it?”
”Do you have other suspects? Plan on finding them? Some leads? You have nothing.” Auror said and both office worker had nothing to say.
”But…”
”If you scared you will follow the fate of the previous owners, no need. I made a report and indicated there that you worked good. I will talk with your boss about it. No need to worry.”
After saying that, Kevil Joyce left, giving no chance for the others to say a word. Then he reached his cabinet and started making notes, while thinking.
'As I thought. Everyone else is clean. Only that boy was suspicious. There was something fishy about him, but I have no proof for now. At the very least I am sure he won't do a rob a shop in the near future. He is not that stupid, but nonetheless he is a possible danger. I need to keep an eye on him in the future.'
