Chapter 513
: Acting with Sirius 1
Chapter 513 Acting with Sirius 3
"The Dark Mark...is becoming more and more conspicuous...Lucius suspects that the man is coming back..."
"They said that after the game, they would have some fun with the Muggles near the camp... and also... and also to send a signal to that person... if he is really still alive..."
"I don't want... I don't want him to come back... When the master was alive, he became more and more cruel. If he comes back, he will definitely punish us... We are all traitors..."
Grove Goyle had no resistance to the truth serum. He stammered as he spoke, and Sirius's face became increasingly gloomy.
He walked over, lifted up Goyle's left sleeve, and stared at the mark on it.
It was a light red tattoo with a snake coming out of a skull's mouth. It looked evil yet had a weird beauty.
Sirius looked at them coldly for a while, then asked, "Who are the people who are going to act with you?"
Two seconds later, Grover Goyle muttered a string of names: "Lucius, Crabbe, Nott, McNeill..."
……
Half an hour later, Grover Goyle fell into a coma again. To be on the safe side, Sirius cast a forgetfulness spell to ensure that he would not say anything when he woke up.
The two used the Disillusionment Charm again to go downstairs. When they reached the door, Wade saw that his classmate Goyle seemed to have accidentally set his robe on fire. He screamed and slapped it in a panic. His mother ran out of the tent, ripped off his robe and threw it away with a "rip".
In the chaos, Wade and the other man left silently.
"Thanks to your careful observation this time, Vader." Sirius lowered his head and said, "Otherwise, by the time we saw the Dark Mark above the body, it would have been too late to catch the person."
Wade knew that he would not be involved in the subsequent actions, so he asked, "How are you going to deal with this matter?"
"This is a great opportunity." Sirius showed a dangerous smile. "Thirteen years ago, they used the excuse that they were under the Imperius Curse to avoid being thrown into Azkaban. If we can catch them in the act this time, that excuse won't work."
He returned the wand to Vader, told him to go back to the tent, and then Apparated away.
Wade put away the wand, leaving behind the one he rarely used, and returned to the tent while recalling the plot of the original book.
Harry and Lupin were probably still with the Weasleys and had not come back yet. Only Kreacher was diligently preparing lunch, and the aroma of frying steak wafted from the kitchen.
Vader sat down, poured himself a cup of hot tea, and drank it in one gulp.
It will be impossible for the Death Eaters to cause trouble in the camp. If they are lucky, these guys will be caught by the Ministry of Magic.
But Wade did not have much confidence in the Aurors' ability to take action. Even members of the Order of the Phoenix might not be able to stop the Death Eaters from escaping in time unless Dumbledore took action personally.
As far as I can remember, Lucius Malfoy and his gang were indeed imprisoned once - after they attacked the Ministry of Magic, Dumbledore trapped most of the Death Eaters, making it impossible for them to resist or escape.
Although Wade has not seen the headmaster in the camp until now, he should still show up after being contacted by Sirius, right?
Now that the matter was resolved, Wade felt that he should relax, but he still had a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.
He stroked the teacup gently, thinking: After all, what does the Death Eaters causing trouble in the camp in the middle of the night have to do with the dream I had?
In the original book, no one died that night. In fact, Malfoy and others are now hiding their heads and tails. Even if they cover their faces, they don’t have the courage to kill anyone. They just want to create some chaos.
Perhaps those experiences were very scary for the Muggle caretaker and his family, but for most wizards, it was just a close call. For little wizards like Harry and his group, it was just like getting a little rain on the edge of a storm. The worst consequence was that little Barty took the opportunity to escape.
Vader paused.
——Yes, in the original book, Little Barty would take advantage of the chaos to escape.
But now, he had escaped and returned to Voldemort, and even Gal Trocca and Lockhart fell into their hands.
Harry came to the camp to watch the Quidditch World Cup. There were wizards using magic everywhere around him. People were Apparating anytime and anywhere. The magic department was overwhelmed and couldn't take care of it all.
Wouldn't it be better to do it here rather than sneaking someone out from the heavily guarded Hogwarts?
Wade stared at the teacup in his hand. After a moment, he poured himself another cup of hot tea, drank it slowly, and then turned the cup upside down.
After the tea was all gone, the tea leaves at the bottom became a mess, and Wade gently rotated the tea tray.
Skeletons…skeletons…skeletons…skeletons.
No matter which direction you look from, the remaining tea leaves take the shape of a skull.
[Death, danger...potentially fatal threat...]
Wade recalled the words in the book, and then looked at the loose tea leaves that almost formed a circle around the skull.
[Being surrounded by shadows... symbolizes that the danger is magnified, and you need to be extra vigilant...]
"This is ominous! Extremely ominous!"
Wade recalled that when Professor Trelawney talked about that part, his eyes widened and his breathing became rapid.
"If you see a similar pattern, be careful! Be careful! Dear...it means death is staring at you...You must be extremely careful and avoid all dangerous places!"
"I have warned you as best I could, but I hope you will never... ah... never encounter anything so terrible... Merlin bless you... don't get close to the veil of death..."
Trelawney ended the lecture in her usual mystical tone, and finally slumped in her chair and muttered to herself as if she had thought of something terrible.
But Wade remembered that after that class, several Gryffindors wrote in their prophecy homework that they saw patterns such as skulls and crosses, and then made up a terrible crisis for themselves.
Thinking of Professor Trelawney's wide eyes, Wade smiled unconsciously. Looking down and seeing the skull on the saucer, he sighed again.
"So... what's the use of divination? It tells you there is danger, but it doesn't tell you where the danger comes from... Staying in the camp may be dangerous, but leaving the camp may also be the real source of danger..."
Wade muttered to himself, put down the tea tray, and accidentally saw the book "Quidditch World Cup in History" on the bookshelf, which moved his heart slightly.
