The Witch's Bodyguard [Comprehensive Anglo-American]

"waiting" is located on the outskirts of a small town in the south of Los Angeles, surrounded by sparsely populated areas, with almost no residents to be seen. Before dusk, this bar presents a deathly silence. 【Note】

A few hours before the official opening of the bar, Ma Linglong was driving a scarlet Maserati (Maserati) on the highway, which was her transportation in the Muggle world, with a total price of 120 million US dollars, each Monthly installments.She stepped on the accelerator and increased the horsepower to 180 mph, and the scenery outside the window was like a torn mirror image.

No one stays in a good mood after leaving Azkaban, except the dementors, monsters that float in the air like black plastic bags, like ghosts but scarier and more difficult than ghosts, they feed on the joyful emotions of human beings .Azkaban is like hell on land, maybe even scarier than hell, not just because it is a prison for serious criminals, although those prisoners are all murderous.

In fact, in the eyes of many people, the criminals in Azkaban are not enough to fill the prison with terror. They have already been deprived of their wands. No matter how powerful a wizard is without a wand, they only have a little more supernatural powers than Muggles.

The dementors that hover around the prison are the source of terror.

Anyone who gets close to that kind of monster, no matter who it is, even Mr. Merlin, the originator of wizards, will feel hopeless involuntarily.

After leaving Hogwarts, Ma Linglong headed to the north of London alone. There were no great customs and customs to appreciate there, but as long as she was a wizard, she would not want to approach that sea area unless it was absolutely necessary.The surface of the North Sea is always accompanied by waves and constant thunder and lightning. In order to prevent Muggle ships from intruding into this sea area without permission, the Ministry of Magic has implemented the magic of violent storms around it, which seems to intensify the terrifying atmosphere of that place.

There is a small island in the middle of the North Sea, on which no grass grows, only a huge castle that looks dilapidated from the outside, of course there are no princesses and princes inside, only wizards who have committed unforgivable crimes are imprisoned there and suffer mental torture.

Ma Linglong took the box that Dumbledore gave her to the vicinity of the island. It contained a round dinner plate, which looked like a small thing containing candy, but it was a magic weapon, and many spells were cast on it. , it can also become a boat, or a key that can open any door.

Ma Linglong was well aware of Dumbledore's hint. She spent several years collecting evidence to prove that Sirius was wrongly imprisoned. She persuaded Dumbledore with her actions and perseverance, and now she finally has the result.

In the years following the Wizarding War, almost every cell was filled with prisoners, and most of the captured Death Eaters spent the rest of their lives there.Ten years have passed, and Voldemort's followers, who were originally strong-willed, have all lost their lives in cold prisons.

Neither Ma Linglong nor Dumbledore wanted such a result to happen to Sirius Black (Sirius. Black), even though Dumbledore did not believe that Sirius was innocent at the time.

Therefore, since he was imprisoned, Ma Linglong has visited Sirius himself every year on his birthday, without interruption for ten years. She tried every means to ensure that Sirius would not lose his mind and go crazy due to the existence of dementors. even die.

When she smuggled Dumbledore's "kindness" to Sirius, his dark gray eyes shone like wolves that haunted the depths of the Forbidden Forest at night.But he was much gentler than a wolf, even though Sirius was emaciated and handsome no longer.

Ma Linglong is the only one who is close to the dementors without being affected. The dragon attached to her left arm will make the dementors feel threatened, so they will stay away from her. Only Dumbledore knows that Ma Linglong has this This ability, and tried to keep it a secret for her, just like Ma Linglong kept Dumbledore's secret about his relationship with Grindelwald.

Ma Linglong always has a way to appear at the gate of Sirius Prison without being discovered by the dementors, although she can only stay there for a short 1 minute, and this is the happiest time of the year for Sirius, she encourages He lives well, stays alive, and doesn't give up hope.

But even so, every time Ma Linglong left Azkaban, he would feel extremely bad.

Therefore, when she drove the Maserati into the range where she could see the bar, but found another black car parked on the side of the road where she usually parked, Ma Linglong was even more upset.

She doesn't want to do business today.

"Business" was sitting in front of the bar just a few steps from the door. It was a middle-aged man in a formal suit. Ma Linglong judged from the tailoring and fit of the suit that he was a client with good financial ability.The man's forehead is a little bald, and the tails of his eyes are slightly drooping, as if he is smiling. He has a comfortable face, which makes it difficult for people to reject him.

The man was teasing the owl "Furball" with his fingers, making a "tsk tsk" sound. Ma Linglong had always hung the owl stand on the bar, like a mascot.

"If it pecks you, I won't be responsible for the compensation." Ma Linglong took a few steps forward and slapped away the chandelier on the top of the bar.

The man put his hands back on the sides of the suit, then got off the high chair, and stood up straight: "Good afternoon, Miss Ma, I'm Phil Coulson (Phil Coulson)."

Ma Linglong walked into the bar and saw her own special business card on the table. She touched the black and gray card and said, "You got it from the Evans couple. They told you Rules, right?"

"Of course." Coulson said, he pushed forward a blue packing box in front of him, "I'm an agent of the Homeland Strategic Defense Offensive and Logistics Agency, you can call me Coulson. Coulson thought for a while, and then said, "The vanilla cheese from 'Magic Cake House' is really hard to find."

Ma Linglong was about to take the cake box away, but suddenly stopped her hand in mid-air: "People from the government?"

"Yes, but the functions are more concentrated." Coulson replied with a smile.

"Please go back." Ma Linglong took away the business card and pushed the cake box back.

"Wait, is the taste wrong?" Coulson said, "Ms. Evans told me this is the cake, I should remember correctly."

"I don't want to negotiate business with people from the government." If it was not today, Ma Linglong would still negotiate, and she would raise the price very high.

Ma Linglong is very famous in the American psychic circle, not only because she can fundamentally solve the client's problems as long as she makes a move, but most importantly, she has many unbelievable rules, such as that business card.Her special business card was not handed out casually, it symbolized an appointment letter, Ma Linglong would only do business with people who came to her with a business card in hand, it would save her a lot of time in negotiating with the client.

She has been working as a psychic for ten years. Her first business was in Kentucky. She expelled the evil spirit hidden in the body of the youngest daughter of the family for free. After all, she was only 17 years old at the time. Looking young and inexperienced, no one wants to spend their money on her.

After Ma Linglong solved the family's troubles very quickly, she became famous almost overnight in the world of psychics.

She sent out her first business card and asked the family to sign a non-disclosure agreement prohibiting public disclosure of what they saw or knew.However, they can tell others that the reason their little daughter returned to normal is due to a psychic. If other needy people come to the door, they have to hand over the business card and tell the person who receives the business card some basic rules .

Over time, Ma Linglong's business has been getting better and better.

The first rule is that visitors need to pay a "deposit", a box of vanilla cheesecake from the "Magic Cake Room" at No. 38, Fifth Avenue, New York. Of course, two boxes are the best, if it can be paired with a bottle of blueberry jam. , Ma Linglong may give a discount during the official transaction.

She favors the cheese from that bakery, of course it's not really magical, it's just that the boss gave it such a dreamy name.The vanilla cheese in the cake room is limited, and only 55 pieces are sold every day. You can't make an appointment, you can only queue up. If you miss it, you have to wait until the next day.

And Ma Linglong didn't have the habit of getting up early.

In the past ten years, she has personally issued ten business cards, and the one to Stark is No.11.

"But this is not in your rules." Coulson didn't intend to give up just like that, he still maintained a professional smile, he knew that his smile was enough to resolve all embarrassments, and his tone was not at all impatient and sharp, " Since we all like the cheese from 'Magic Cake House', I hope you will allow me to say a few more words."

Obviously, the other party was quite familiar with Ma Linglong's temper and preferences, and Coulson's good attitude won him a chance.

"Speak." Ma Linglong said.

"I'm sorry. People from other governments may have given you a bad impression. There are always smart guys who make trouble for others." Coulson said sincerely.

While speaking, Ma Linglong suddenly turned her upper body forward, folded her arms on the edge of the bar, seemingly leisurely, but it was her defensive posture: "What do you know?"

Coulson said: "You once did something for an administrative official of the Ministry of Defense, but he violated the promise in the contract and recorded the conversation with you with a tape recorder, and then openly distributed it on the Internet."

"He is an atheist." Ma Linglong said.

"Yes, he did it to humiliate psychics like you," Coulson said, "but I'm not, I'm interested in the paranormal."

Ma Linglong didn't ask whether Coulson came here on behalf of an individual or the government. The answer was obvious. If it was in the name of an individual, the other party would not have reported the name of that string of tongue-twisting departments: "You repeat just now..."

"The Homeland Strategic Defense Attack and Logistics Support Agency is a bit of a tongue-twister, we will solve this problem as soon as possible." Coulson said.

"What kind of security work are you doing?"

Coulson adjusted his sitting posture: "Can I order a cocktail, after all, this is a bar."

"We're not open yet, so we don't have wine, and I don't really want to have a long chat with you today." Ma Linglong took away the cake box, "Come back after seven o'clock tomorrow night."

"But, you know, cheesecake is really hard to find." Coulson showed a helpless look.

At this moment, Ma Linglong's cell phone buzzed. She looked down and saw a series of unfamiliar numbers.Ma Linglong could easily guess who the owner of the computer number was, it was one less than a normal American mobile phone, and it was impossible for the Muggles she knew to call her on their own initiative.

Except Stark.

"It's okay, please answer the phone." Coulson said.
