179 An unexpected meeting
£300 for a knife may be too much to pay for many people, but for a dentist like Mr Granger it was nothing.
Therefore, after discovering that the knife came from the famous battleship Tirpitz, he immediately spent money to buy this knife, which in his eyes could be said to be of great commemorative value.
As for Hugo, after confirming that the knife his father bought could be used to summon the ship girl, he no longer had to go to the fjord to the east to summon Tirpitz.
Especially when he doesn't have enough destiny points now, it is obviously better for him to put some summons behind him. At least this way he can avoid not having enough destiny points when he appears in Narvik. Use the problem.
After arriving in Narvik, the Granger family quickly moved into the house that Grandpa Hugo had.
This is a two-story small building built of stone. It looks dusty, no different from the surrounding residences scattered on the plain, but the signs of decoration can be clearly seen inside.
After opening the door, there is a corridor directly opposite the door. The corridors are lined with beautiful wallpaper. On the left hand side of the corridor is a kitchen and dining room that does not look large and even seems a bit crowded.
"It looks okay, but considering my grandparents had six children, the house must have been very crowded at that time."
"Six children, this is incredible." Hermione said with wide eyes, "But I have never met my grandfather's brothers and sisters."
"Because they either died very early or went to other countries, and then the contact between everyone was slowly broken." Mrs. Granger shook her head and said to the children.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I'm going to cook first while you clean up the house. We can have dinner together in a while."
After lunch, they decided to go to the beach for a walk. But unexpectedly, when the Granger family arrived at the pier, they were surprised to see Enterprise and Budu standing on the pier looking at the bay in front of them and saying something.
"Professor Halsey, why are you here?" After recognizing the company, Hermione immediately stepped forward to say hello.
"Just call me Sister Enterprise like you did during the summer vacation. After all, this is a break outside school." Enterprise smiled and waved his hand and said, "We have something to do here. To be precise, we are looking for something. Treasure."
"——Oh, then we won't disturb them." After hearing what the enterprise said, Mr. Granger left after greeting them for a few words.
After all, the other party is here to find the treasure, and it is really not suitable for me to stay here and disturb them.
"The person next to Sister Enterprise should be the female owner of the new magic shop in Diagon Alley." Hermione said to Hugo on the way back. During the chat just now, Hermione recognized He has gained an identity of standing by the company unyieldingly.
"A magic item maker and a former Auror can allow them to go out to find things personally. If you think about it, you will know that it will be very precious."
At this point, Hermione clenched her hands into fists on her chest, and her eyes suddenly shone.
Sure enough, as a student who doesn't want Gryffindor, Hermione also has a strong sense of adventure, so she reacted so much after hearing the news.
"I think after we are in fifth grade, maybe we will have enough strength to join those adventures." Hugo said looking at his sister.
"And didn't we say we were going hunting in the afternoon? I think it would be a good thing to take this opportunity to learn how to shoot."
Because this time happened to be the hunting season in Norway, the Granger family purchased a license before arriving and prepared to go hunting. As for firearms and other items, my grandfather had them here, so there was no need to rent them separately.
"You're right. Instead of thinking about those things now, it's better to think about what to do for hunting in the afternoon." After Hugo said this, Hermione's attention was suddenly transferred to hunting.
As British people, the Granger family not only have no objection to such bloody activities as hunting, but are actually filled with some kind of expectation for such activities in their hearts.
Because in Britain, hunting is regarded as one of several sports exclusive to the nobility. Those traditional nobles often hunt collectively on various specific dates and places and use this occasion to socialize.
In such an environment, the British middle class like the Granger family naturally have a certain admiration for this activity.
However, just as the Granger family was preparing for their afternoon trip, Hugo contacted the company through the admiral network and asked her about the reason why she appeared in Narvik at this time.
"This is mainly related to you, Commander." Enterprise replied. "After your grandfather told about his father's encounter, Kewei immediately passed the story to me."
"Because you will be staying in the Narvik area for a week during this period and going into the mountains for hunting. So we specifically investigated what happened around here in 45 years?"
"Then you must have discovered something through your investigation." Hugo immediately replied after hearing what the company said. "Otherwise, it would be enough just to protect me as one person. There is no need for you and Bushu to come together."
"We did investigate something." Enterprise chuckled. "But Buruo and I are not the only ones coming this time. In addition to the two of us, Blücher, St. George, and the Reputation sisters also came together."
"What exactly did you find?" Hugo felt that he suddenly became energetic after hearing what the company said. "It's definitely not a small thing to be able to dispatch so many battleships. Have you discovered the World Tree?"
"No, in fact, we still don't know what we found this time." The company said.
"The reason why we came here is mainly because we accidentally discovered when checking the files. The files recorded that several ordinary people disappeared in the place where your grandfather's father went in 45."
"What's so strange about this?" Hugo asked in confusion. "At that time, Norway was very chaotic because the war had just ended, and many people wanted to escape through those forests into the neutral country of Sweden."
"But this area is surrounded by primeval forests, plus mountainous areas with complex terrain. It should be very normal for those inexperienced people to die without any bones in the forest when they pass by."
"You are right. The environment around this place is indeed very good, and there are many kinds of wild animals. If ordinary people died in the mountains and forests, they would probably be eaten up in a few hours."
After hearing Hugo's question, Enterprise nodded first and then said. "But what would you think if I told you that more than five local and nearby old hunters died here?"
"This is not normal." Hugo immediately understood why the company was suspicious.
"Those old hunters are very sure of their own level and will not go to particularly dangerous places. Moreover, the Germans surrendered at the turn of spring and summer here, and the woods are far less dangerous than winter. Even if something happens to someone, It’s impossible for something to happen collectively.”
