Chapter 201 199. Escape and Resistance
"Eat something, Tomo."
Sara with a haggard face put a fried egg and grilled sausage in front of her husband.
Tomo was reading the newspaper, but in the newspaper he only saw the man who was hated and feared by countless French shaman wizards, smiling coldly in the photo on the front page.
【Seventy percent of the mudbloods have been confiscated, Mr. Minister announced the establishment of a temporary correctional center】
Looking at the two lines of bold and enlarged news headlines, Tomo unconsciously clenched the two hands holding the newspaper tightly.
Sarah took his hand, her face was pained and pale.
"Why don't we go, honey, get out of here, go anywhere else."
"That's what those British fledglings thought when they fled to our land." Tomo said excitedly, "Where can we escape now? Go north to Belgium or Holland? Go south to Spain or Portugal ? Britain and France have fallen into his hands, do you think the Ministry of Magic of these countries can stop him? Where can we escape then!"
Sara was crying silently, holding her husband's hand tightly, full of fear and anxiety about the earth-shaking changes that had taken place in less than a month.
They would have been a wonderful wizarding family.
Both the couple are numb wizards who graduated from Beauxbatons. Tomo was recruited into the French Ministry of Magic right after graduation due to his excellent grades. He has already served as an office manager.
Wife Sara works as a tailor in a magic robe shop. Her usual work is relatively easy, and it is also convenient to take care of children who have not yet reached school age.
However, this life was broken just three weeks ago.
No one knew what happened in that extraordinary council meeting, but overnight, the Dark Lord who ruled the UK and was notorious among all wizards all over the world suddenly became the Minister of Magic of France .
The Ministry of Magic has become his loyal supporters from top to bottom, and all the employees of the original hemp species were arrested and imprisoned.
Fortunately, on the night when the meeting was held, Tomo felt that the atmosphere in the department was not right, so he escaped from it in time and escaped the catastrophe.
Now he has taken his wife and daughter to hide in his hometown in the countryside in Rouen, avoiding the hunt of those Aurors who confiscated their wands.
Having been in the political arena for more than ten years, Tomo knows very well what will happen to the hemp-born wizards under the bloodline policy after the wand is taken away. slave!
But only away from Paris, the current situation of the Tomo family is still extremely dangerous.
The Aurors, whose personnel have more than doubled in size, are hunting down witches all over France. As long as they don't escape, they will be discovered sooner or later.
"Has Julie not gotten up yet?" Tomo put down the newspaper in his hand and wiped his wife's tears.
Sara sniffled and calmed down her emotions.
"When I went to see her, she was still awake, so I didn't call her."
"Then let her sleep more, she's freaking out these days too."
Just as they were talking and were about to start eating breakfast, Tomo suddenly raised his head keenly.
Outside the window, several black shadows suddenly flashed past!
His nerves tensed up immediately, but he put down the knife and fork with a very slight movement, and then grabbed Sarah's arm.
Sara looked at him. Neither of them spoke, but the tacit understanding they had cultivated over the years had allowed them to know what was going on just by looking at each other.
With a look of horror on her face, she stood up from the chair in a panic, turned around and walked quickly towards the stairs leading to the bedroom on the second floor.
Tomo restrained his trembling hands, pulled out the wand that was always in his pocket, and then approached the wall where the main entrance was located with extreme caution.
"Iron Armor Protection."
A layer of invisible protection formed on the surface of his body, and the closer he was to the door, the more he could hear the movement outside the door, and even vaguely heard a burst of intermittent communication.
“.He’s hiding here.”
"That's right. I used insanity on that Muggle woman right here."
Tomo's palm holding the wand was sweating, but at this moment his trembling hand calmed down instead.
He turned his head and looked at Sarah who had already called his daughter and was holding her hand and looking at him from the stairs on the second floor with tears and fear on her face.
Opened his mouth, suppressed his voice and shouted.
"Go immediately!"
Julie, who had just been woken up from the bed, seemed to have guessed her father's next fate. When she was about to cry with red eyes, Sarah covered her mouth.
Both mother and daughter were in tears, and Sarah raised her wand.
The knock on the door and the sound of her chanting almost sounded at the same time!
"Apparate!"
She took Julie, and the two bodies twisted together for a moment, but in the next second, with the sound of a whip whipping the air, the two suddenly appeared in place again!
Apparition is blocked!
Sara and Tomo's faces were completely filled with despair, and such a violent movement naturally made people outside the house aware that something was wrong.
"Damn! They found us and tried to escape!"
Tomo pointed at the door resolutely and raised his wand, but before he could say the spell, the deafening explosion sounded in his face!
"Boom!"
The main entrance was shattered in an instant, and even the surrounding walls collapsed in large pieces.
Sara and Julie on the second floor let out piercing screams, but Tomo cast spells on the cloud of smoke in front of him without hesitation!
"Disarm you!"
The red light flickered, piercing through the smoke, but it seemed to be swallowed up, without causing any waves.
In the next second, the voice of three mantras chanting at the same time sounded from behind the smoke.
"Avada Kedavra!"*3
The miserable green light, which is countless times more dazzling than the red light, completely dispelled the haze. Sarah, who was protecting her daughter on the second floor and looking for the broomstick, yelled!
She cut off the idea of escape, and ran down the stairs like crazy.
Fortunately, the long office life did not dampen Tomo's vigilance and reaction. The moment he heard the spell, he rolled over and hid behind the sofa.
The three killing curses landed on the sofa pillows, directly blasting it to pieces, and countless feathers flew all over the sky.
Sara rushed to her husband's side. She grabbed Tomo's arm with one hand, and beside her was her crying daughter, who raised her wand with angry and ashen faces.
If you can’t escape, you can only resist!
