~7 min read 1,210 words

Evening.

The members of the investigation team all gathered in Goblin Blyn's room.

"What's going on, why is there still no echo?" Mary asked anxiously, "Could there be something wrong with the gold coins you made?"

"You can doubt my character, but you cannot doubt a goblin's craftsmanship!" Goblin Blyn was very dissatisfied, "Maybe the other party is holding the gold coin too far away."

"Try again." Conrad said.

Goblin Blyn took the goblin gold coin again and injected magic power, "Hello, hello, is anyone there? Can anyone hear me?"

However, the gold coin remained silent, and no sound came.

"You say, is it possible that those Aurors discovered our actions?" a wizard said.

"Impossible. If that were the case, we should have been interrogated by now, or at least they would have confiscated our gold coins here." another wizard said.

"It seems there won't be any harvest today. Let's try again tomorrow."

But at this moment, a rustling sound suddenly came from the gold coin.

Everyone fell silent all at once.

Goblin Blyn hurriedly pressed his finger on it and injected magic power, "Hello, is anyone there? Who is there?"

However, the next second, the connection was cut off, and the opposite side became silent again.

"What's going on?"

"Could it be that someone picked up the gold coin and touched it by accident?"

"Impossible, this kind of gold coin must be actively injected with magic power to establish a connection." Goblin Blyn said, "The other party must be intentional..."

Before he finished speaking, a rustling sound came from the gold coin again.

Before Goblin Blyn could speak again, a voice suddenly came from the other side, "Investigation team?"

Everyone was stunned, "How does he know who we are?"

But before they could think of a reason, a voice came from the gold coin again, "Your actions are too risky. This gold coin was almost picked up by an Auror."

Everyone was startled, but then breathed a sigh of relief. The other party didn't seem to be in the same group as the Aurors.

"Who are you?" Mary couldn't wait to press her hand on the gold coin and asked.

"Someone who can help you." The other party said, "I have been observing this courtyard for a long time. I know you have been locked up, and we have been looking for you everywhere."

"You want to help us? How to help?"

"I will prepare a Portkey." The other party said, "I noticed that a house-elf is taking care of your diet, right?"

"Yes." Mary replied.

She didn't completely trust the other party, but at this time, she couldn't think of any reason for the other party to lie to them.

"I will find a way to use it to send the Portkey to you. You just need to grab that Portkey and use the spell to activate it, and you can leave that place."

"How are you going to use that house-elf?"

"I don't know, I'll see the situation tomorrow. Check the things the house-elf sends carefully."

"Remember, the spell to activate the Portkey is 'Long live goblin freedom'."

"What?" Goblin Blyn was startled, "Could it be that you are..."

"Yes, my compatriot." The other party said, "I will wait for you in a safe place."

"Don't use gold coins to contact me rashly, it might be discovered by Aurors. Goodbye."

"Remember, long live goblin freedom!"

The call ended, and no matter how Mary spoke, there was no sound on the other side.

"The other party eliminated the magic on the gold coin!" Goblin Blyn was overjoyed, "That is a goblin. Only my compatriots know how to use this kind of gold coin!"

"But this might also be a trap." a wizard said, "Aren't the British goblins all caught by Murphy?"

"How is that possible? My clansmen are as numerous as wizards!" Goblin Blyn said, "How could Murphy catch so many goblins?! That would cause public outrage. Isn't Gringotts still having some goblins working? The other party must be a compatriot who is lurking! Did you hear the password he said? Long live goblin freedom! He must also be preparing to rescue those captured compatriots!"

"Isn't this the result we hope for? What are you worried about?"

……

The next day.

"Ouch!" A wizard let out a scream while eating, and then he took out a ball of wire from his mouth, looked at the bread in his left hand, and was about to get angry, but suddenly his heart moved, and he quietly put the wire away.

At noon, everyone looked at the wire on the table, "Is this the Portkey the other party mentioned?"

"How did he put the wire into the bread?"

"Did you find anything more like a Portkey elsewhere?"

"Try it, try it and you'll know." Mary said, this ghost place had almost driven her crazy, and she couldn't wait to leave.

"Wait." Conrad stopped her, "Wait until night. If we disappear now, we might be discovered. To be safe, we must try our best to delay the time they discover it."

……

Evening, just after nightfall.

Everyone gathered in Blyn's room again, holding the wire that was unfolded enough for several people to grab.

They looked at each other. The shared adversity during this period had already made them develop some friendship.

"Wish us luck." Mary said.

"Long live goblin freedom!"

Several people suddenly disappeared from the room.

The next moment, on a hillside dozens of kilometers away, a goblin was waiting quietly.

Suddenly, a vortex of space appeared in front of him, and then several people fell out of it one after another.

He raised his eyebrows and said in his heart: "Master, they have already come. Everything is consistent with the plan."

After reporting, he stepped forward and picked up Goblin Blyn's hand, "You came too late, I waited here for a day!"

"Sorry, we had to wait until nightfall to buy more time." Conrad said.

The goblin nodded, "Very wise idea. My name is Goldhook."

Several wizards introduced themselves separately, and then Mary said: "Goldhook, can you help us leave the UK? We must report to the Confederation. Murphy actually imprisoned the investigation team. He is already no different from being an enemy of the Confederation!"

Goldhook looked at them, "No, you cannot leave the UK. You still have things unfinished!"

"What?" Mary was stunned.

"I rescued you not to let you leave now. You must help my compatriots gain liberation! They are being imprisoned by Murphy. I rescued you to let you rescue them!"

Goblin Blyn also nodded, "Yes, isn't this the purpose of your coming to the UK?!"

Several wizards looked at each other, "But we don't have wands."

Goblin Goldhook took out another Portkey from his arms, "Follow me, I have already prepared it for you."

A moment later.

The wizard cemetery behind Hogsmeade village.

Two goblins and several wizards appeared suddenly.

Goblin Goldhook threw several shovels to the wizards and pointed to the graves of those wizards, "Many wizards will be buried with their wands. There are enough wizard graves here, so there are enough wands."

"You, let us grave-rob?!" Mary was shocked.

"Otherwise? How do you think we goblins get wands?!"
