Chapter 149: Chase and confrontation in the woods

Esther had never seen her mother so panicked.

Just now, they separated from their father and ran out with the crowd, but there were too many people, and some people in the crowd suddenly started attacking the people around them.

As a wizard fled in a panic, his mother, Letitia, held Esther's hand and was forced to separate. The panicked and crowded crowd instantly took them in two directions.

"Ais!"

Mom yelled and squeezed in Esther's direction with all her strength.

Esther weakly stretched out her hand in the direction of her mother, but the crowd overwhelmed her.

"Ais!"

"Ais!"

Her mother's shouts became fainter each time, and Esther was forced to follow the crowd.

Everything around her became dark. Although Esther was squeezed into the woods, she was completely lost from her mother.

She gripped her wand tightly and walked through the woods.

The colorful lights that had illuminated the path to the stadium were now extinguished, and dark figures were stumbling about in the woods. Children were crying, and nervous shouts and voices echoed in the cold night air around them.

Esther took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

It's all so chaotic, and even entering the woods doesn't mean it's safe.

She had to be careful.

After thinking for a while, she did not use fluorescent flashes, but tried her best to find the direction in the dark.

Suddenly she felt someone approaching her.

She paused for a moment. When she didn't know the purpose of the person coming, it was always right to strike first.

Esther clenched her wand and was about to turn her head when she heard a panicked voice: "It's me!"

Esther lowered her wand.

In the darkness, his light-colored eyes sparkled, as bright as gems.

"Draco! Why are you here?"

Esther breathed a sigh of relief.

"This is not the place to talk." He quickly took Esther's wrist and walked into the woods.

A ray of light rose from his wand, illuminating the road ahead and illuminating his evasive expression.

"You...you're not hurt, are you?"

he asked.

Esther shook her head: "It's okay, I just got separated from my mother. What about you? Why are you here alone?"

Draco suddenly fell silent.

Only then did Esther realize that she had asked the wrong question.

The reason why he appeared here alone was because his parents were among the group of Death Eaters.

"I..." He opened his mouth, but did not dare to look into Esther's eyes: "I am also separated."

Esther didn't expose him, just nodded and followed him forward.

"Draco, do you think those people hanging in the air by those people are dead?"

Esther asked suddenly.

Draco stiffened for a moment, and his voice began to drift: "They should not be dead, they are just a group of Muggles..."

"But Muggles' lives are lives too, and they are humans too."

Draco stopped talking, and he silently led Esther forward.

At this moment, there was another scream all around.

Dark night is always the best protective color. In the dark night, the bad roots of human nature begin to spread.

Judging from the sound, it seems that someone took advantage of the night to rob other people's money and cast evil spells on innocent people.

They weren't Death Eaters killing people and setting fire to the camp, but they were still a more egregious bunch of scum.

The sound was very close to them.

Esther immediately said to Draco: "Quickly extinguish the light!"

But it's too late.

There was a flash of light, Draco's wand came out, the lights went out, and the surroundings fell into darkness.

"Look, who is this? Malfoy and the Mayne cub."

In the darkness, a malicious male voice came.

Esther tried hard to identify him, but it was too dark to see his appearance clearly.

The only good news may be that he is alone.

Esther tightened her wand and stood closely with Draco.

"You two young ladies and young masters from rich families, please hand over your money quickly, and you can avoid some physical pain."

The man was still shouting, but he seemed to be afraid of being seen by them, so he didn't dare to get too close.

Esther did not hesitate to throw all her valuables at the man, including the small purse she carried and the gemstone bracelet on her wrist.

Draco saw her action and threw all his money in the same way.

All our belongings are here, take them and let us go, right? "

The man over there picked up the things on the ground: "What a good and obedient boy. He has a lot of things."

He picked up all the things and put them away, but then pointed the wand at them: "What a pity, I really hate your parents so much. They look so condescending, which is really annoying. All of you are doing this for your parents." Is it too much to apologize to me?"

Esther knew very well that the apology from his mouth was definitely not a verbal apology, but to make them suffer some physical pain.

Her eyes turned cold, and she grabbed Draco's hand tightly. Before the man was about to make a move, she took the lead in attacking: "Collapse!"

The spell successfully hit the man, and he flew back wailing.

Not sure if he had any accomplices, Esther immediately pulled Draco and ran away.

They shuttled through the woods quickly, but not long after they heard the man's cursing voice, he caught up with them!

And there’s more than one voice!

Esther's heart sank.

She saw Draco's face was pale, and his eyes were full of panic.

She warned herself not to panic, and made a decision in a split second, telling Draco: "Run back! Get out of the woods and go to a place with light!"

Since they don't want them to see their faces, they should run to a place where they can see their faces, and they probably won't dare to chase them.

Although there were a bunch of Death Eaters in the tent, there were also a bunch of Ministry of Magic staff. What's more, those Death Eaters also included Draco's parents, and Esther was not a Muggle. Those Death Eaters would not attack a little witch who was not a Muggle.

Draco didn't question it, but just followed her words and ran in the direction she came from.

A flashing ominous red light passed through Esther's hair and fell on the tree trunk nearby, exploding a hole.

Esther pursed her lips tightly, turned around and fired a series of magic spells: "There are many obstacles! There are many obstacles!"

In the darkness, she should have hit someone, buying them some time to escape.

But a more violent counterattack followed.

Esther's strength was gradually losing strength, and even though Draco was holding her and running, her speed gradually dropped.

Another curse passed by, but Esther no longer had the strength to fight back.

Seeing the light gradually emerging from the gaps in the woods ahead, the group behind seemed to have no intention of pursuing them. They fired a series of curses at them as if to vent their anger, and Esther was hit by the curse.

She felt pain in her right leg and knelt down.

She touched her leg and felt blood on her hand.

"Ais!"

Draco squatted down in panic and touched blood on his hand.

"You...you're hurt."

Esther wanted to say that she was fine, but the pain made her speechless. The blood flowed gurglingly and soon wetted her clothes.

"Don't worry about me now, go call someone." She pushed Draco as hard as she could and said.

Perhaps seeing that they were injured, the people who were about to leave caught up with them again.
