Just a Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor

A month has passed since Algie was killed by a Death Eater.

Scrimgeour is a very capable Auror, and he obviously went with Sherlock.

There are other Death Eaters in the Ministry!

But he has never found out who it is, or there are too many people who can be suspicious. The high-level leaders are all clinging to the fence, and they will fall to whichever side is stronger. But in the magic world, the situation is completely clear. Before, it was basically impossible for them to do something like this, completely taking one side.

The apparent investigation only lasted a week, and the tense atmosphere within the Ministry of Magic relaxed.

However, Scrimgeour did not really relax. He just turned the investigation into private.

Because there were no other casualties this time, he was lucky enough to only receive a warning and not lose his seat on the ground. But if there is a next time, no one can really protect him.

There were many people who knew about the Ministry of Magic being broken into again, so naturally there was no way to completely seal the news.

As Minkan said, this was the story that was on the front page of the Daily Prophet the next day.

This time, without the fig leaf covering up Sherlock's previous capture of four Death Eaters and a traitor, it became a pure scandal, which greatly affected the reputation and credibility of the Ministry of Magic.

Later, it was said that Minkan went to Hogwarts in person and asked Dumbledore to speak a few words, which calmed the public opinion in the wizarding world.

The more turbulent the era, the higher Dumbledore's prestige in the wizarding world becomes. It is precisely because of his presence that the Dark Lord will not act recklessly.

But in peaceful times, when there is no threat, some people forget his importance and start to look at him as an eyesore.

The Ministry of Magic has also returned to normal work.

Even if he knew that there might be a Horcrux hidden in the Lestrange family's vault, Sherlock was in no hurry to get it.

This is not his main goal now. As long as Voldemort doesn't know that the secret has been leaked, the Lestrange family will not dare to move the cup.

Things won't run away, so Sherlock isn't in a hurry.

After Mrs. Selwyn determined the next main research goal, he had a formal work content.

The Department of Mysteries looks mysterious to outsiders because no one knows what the people inside are studying.

But after actually getting in touch with it, the so-called mysterious things are actually just a few.

Death, time, soul, prophecy, human brain and more.

In the field of time magic, the previous wizards have researched many practical things, and the time converter is just one of them.

When Sherlock first entered the Department of Affairs, Mrs. Selwyn certainly did not want him to take over any crucial research from the beginning. Instead, she started by understanding information about time magic.

There is a lot of information in this information, and it is obviously not something that can be understood in a month or two, so even if he has actual tasks and work, Sherlock can still find time to fish and study his own things.

In the past month, he had almost torn through the book Amy discovered on Dark Magic, and he still couldn't figure out how it could help him.

Until one day, he accidentally revealed the soul protection magic of the original owner's mother Sally, and when he was going to change his mind and change his thinking, he suddenly had an idea!

Soul magic requires you to use your own soul to protect another soul, while Horcrux magic can actively tear apart the soul...

From this point of view, the two magics that act on the soul actually have something in common!

So is it possible to connect it a little bit, and after tearing the soul apart with Horcrux magic, change the properties attached to the object, and at the same time mix the soul protection part of the protection magic with something else, so that it can coexist with the protection magic. ?

Sherlock's mind was opened at this moment.

He rubbed his hands with some excitement, feeling that the direction he had thought of was completely feasible!

Although this kind of thing has nothing to do with returning to the correct timeline, Sherlock is still very interested.

Not only to help Snape realize his dream, but also out of the excitement that was like solving a math problem that had been bothering him for a long time when he was in school in his previous life.

Whether it is Horcruxes or soul protection magic, they are the top soul magic in the magic world.

Sherlock's current knowledge base is certainly not enough to support him in integrating the advantages of the two kinds of magic, but he is now in the place with the most mysterious knowledge in the entire British Ministry of Magic, which can provide him with countless theoretical support.

He hurriedly opened the door of the office, preparing to go to the Hall of Souls to look for information. Just when he walked out of the Hall of Time, he happened to meet a young man who came out of the Hall of Brains.

They looked at each other, nodded and moved away without much conversation.

Sherlock naturally knew this young man.

Barty Crouch Jr. is one of the squad captains of the Auror Command. At the same time, his father is Scrimgeour's immediate boss, Barty Crouch, the director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.

He graduated from Hogwarts with excellent grades and performed well after joining the Aurors. Coupled with his father's influence, he is definitely a rising star among the Aurors. Even Kingsley can only be ranked second. behind him.

Since Sherlock came to the Ministry of Magic, he has not had any interaction with him. At most, he is just a nod acquaintance like before.

It's just that Barty Jr. seems to have been visiting the Department of Mysteries more recently.

In the month since Algie was killed, this was the fifth time Sherlock had met him.

But Sherlock just felt a little strange at best and didn't think much about it.

Anyone can be a traitor, but it would be too ridiculous if a proven winner in life like Barty Jr., whose father also firmly supported the second generation of the Ministry of Magic who fought against Voldemort, became a traitor.

He walked into the Hall of Souls, but the silent man in the Hall of Time was immersed in a lot of information about the soul, and even left behind his own job.

This situation lasted for a few days. Even Amy, who was used to living with him, felt bored and wanted to go to the Hall of Souls to find him. The silent man in the Hall of Souls was full of resentment against him and felt that he was trying to take away her job. , when Mrs. Selwyn was helplessly ready to intervene.

Sherlock finally walked out of the Hall of Souls five days later with a head full of hair like a chicken coop.

There is plenty of information in the Department of Mysteries, and he has now obtained the basis.

The combination of Horcrux magic and soul protection magic is theoretically feasible!
