Just a Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor

"She hid the memory she didn't want to recall but couldn't let go of with the location of the door."

In the dark manor, the wizard played with the glass bottle that glowed with dark silver light in his hand, and said in a pleasant and sarcastic tone.

"Now the memory in her own mind has no place for this door. Even if you use Veritaserum or the Imperius Curse, she will only say "No, I don't know anything."

"She really doesn't know that that woman who thought she was smart even used the forgetting spell to erase the memory of hiding this memory."

"Only when she wants to recall sad events will she rediscover that there is such a place in the Department of Mysteries."

The young man kneeling on the ground said with great reverence.

"She thinks she is smart, but she is as stupid as a wild boar in front of her master."

The wizard gently stroked the young man's hair, as if praising his own child.

"Thanks to you, you are countless times stronger than those losers."

"Will you take action personally next? Master." The young man raised his head and asked excitedly.

The wizard placed the glass bottle containing the memory back on the round table nearby, and at the same time picked up a golden locket on the table with an S-shaped emerald green snake engraved in the middle.

Those cold, sinister eyes looked at the locket and became extremely deep.

"There are more important things for me to do. I think you should be able to help me get this done..." He murmured softly, and suddenly called out the name of his most loyal subordinate, "Bei pull."

In the shadow of the corner, the crazy witch lowered her head and responded to his call and came out.

"I'll leave this matter to you. I trust your ability, and I also really don't want you to betray my trust in you."

"I guarantee with my life, master, that I will get the things in that room for you!"

"I don't want your life. If you really run into trouble, then call me. There can be no accidents in this matter!"

...

"Amy thinks she will definitely hit two sixes this time!"

"Oh? It's true, rather than deliberately deceiving yourself, right?"

"Of course! Amy really feels it, she's not deceiving herself!"

"real?"

"real!"

"Then you can throw the dice now."

The two dice fell from Amy's hand, rolled several times on the carpet, and finally stopped, but the top numbers were not two sixes, but two and three.

After seeing the result clearly, Amy said dejectedly.

"Okay, Amy admits that Amy felt that the points this time were shaken out were very low from the beginning."

After the points were counted, the Q version of Amy with a big sun hat also followed the grid of the carpet with a sad face, taking reluctant small steps forward to the corresponding grid, and came to the place where Sherlock had already been. Purchased land.

"Aha! Pay the money! You need to pay my 500 yuan rent!"

Amy clutched the few bills she had left tightly in her hands, and reluctantly handed one of the 500 yuan bills to Sherlock.

"Amy is going bankrupt again."

"So Amy is the little twerp."

"Amy is not a little fool."

Since making up his mind to leave the Department of Mysteries, Sherlock's daily life has become much more relaxed.

He would naturally complete the tasks assigned to him by Mrs. Selwyn. After all, he was still an employee of the Ministry of Magic before leaving and was still receiving a salary every day.

It’s just that you don’t have to worry about other things anymore.

He had looked through all the places he could find in the Time Hall and found no valuable information.

Before that, he had gone to Mrs. Selwyn's office and asked about research related to time forwarding and whether there was any information in the Time Hall.

The result was that Mrs. Selwyn praised his idea and said that he had a good idea and that he could work hard to research in this direction. When he finished the research, there would be information on this in the Time Hall.

Of course, these words were spoken before what happened in the Hall of Memory two days ago, and Mrs. Selwyn's attitude towards him was obviously much more distant now.

Since there is nothing he is looking for in the Department of Mysteries, Sherlock will definitely not stay in the Ministry of Magic for long.

At the end of this month, he will propose to resign and then go elsewhere to continue looking for a way back.

Sherlock already has some ideas about his next destination.

Since the straw man escaped from the German Ministry of Magic, he can go to Germany to have a look, and maybe he can meet the young Hilke there.

After earning all the last assets in Amy's hands and making her bankrupt and winning this game of Monopoly, Sherlock took her out of the Ministry of Magic and came to a restaurant in downtown London.

Eddie happened to be free today, so they made an appointment for dinner.

By the time Eddie arrived, Amy was already drinking her third glass of juice. He was half an hour late.

"Sorry, sorry, something suddenly happened in the ministry, so I can only delay for a while."

He sat down with a tired look on his face, looking like he had barely rested these days.

Sherlock looked at him strangely.

"What have the Death Eaters done recently?"

"No, since the last time they broke into the Ministry of Magic and killed Algie, it's like they all disappeared. There hasn't been another attack." Eddie shook his head.

"But there are more than just Death Eaters in the wizarding world to deal with. Today, the wizard Kent who lives in Oxford was found to be illegally raising five-legged monsters, and there were quite a lot of them. When Kent was arrested, he actually took those monsters directly. The five-legged monsters have been released, we have to catch all those damn things!"

"Shouldn't that be the job of the Dangerous Animals Committee?"

"The five-legged monster danger level is

Sherlock looked at him with pity.

"Then you will be very busy next. Who knows where those five-legged monsters will go."

Eddie also said with a headache.

"The key is that we don't know the number. Even Kent, who was captured, doesn't remember how many of these monsters he has. He just said there are probably dozens."

"What happened in Sheffield last time has made the Muggle Prime Minister very dissatisfied. If the five-legged monster thing causes the death of Muggles again, there will be big problems in the relationship between the two parties."

Sherlock could only sympathize with these troubles, and he couldn't do much to help.

"Actually, I've wanted to ask you a question for a long time." Sherlock looked at Eddie and said, "Why are you so committed to the Auror profession?"

"In order to work, you didn't even have time to raise your daughter, and you completely gave up your personal life, and spent almost all your experience on work? Is being an Auror important to you?"

After hearing Sherlock's question, Eddie was silent for a moment while touching the cup filled with tea.

"People always have to have some ideals."

he said softly.

"My parents are both wizards, and they are also both Aurors. The most important thought they instilled in me since I was a child is to become a glorious Auror, to stop those who bully the weak, and to save those who suffer injustice. People, to maintain the order that should be maintained.”

"I have always grown up listening to these words. My parents have also fought for these three sentences all their lives, and finally died together in the line of duty while serving as Aurors."

His expression was not serious, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

Eddie shrugged.

"So, I became an Auror and have been working hard on these three sentences. My father has always told me that if you want to master more powerful magic, you must have the goal of controlling this power. Human beings The heart is the key to magic, so since I entered Hogwarts, I have been preparing for what I am going to do now, and I will never forget it.”

Sherlock heard what he said and glanced at Amy who had just come back from the bathroom humming an unknown song.

"What about the family? Don't they need your care?"

Eddie stared at the tea cup in his hand silently.

"You know, Amy was an accident. At first, I never thought that I would become a father so early." His eyes seemed to be thinking, "I have been sorry for two people in my life, and one is Amy. , the other is Sophie, but Sophie has come out of my shadow and will have a better life, Amy’s words..."

He looked at Amy who returned to his seat and naturally took back the windmill that he had put into Sherlock's pocket before, shaking his head and smiling.

"Perhaps I can leave her to you?"

Sherlock touched Amy's head.

"You are really cruel. You handed it over just as your daughter said."

"Getting involved with me is the worst thing that can happen to her. There are very few Aurors in the Auror Command who have families."

Sherlock thought for a while and decided to tell his future plans at this time.

"I'm going to resign from the Ministry of Magic, probably at the end of this month."

Eddie was stunned and looked at Sherlock in surprise.

"You've only been on the job for two months!"

"This has nothing to do with how long it has been since I joined the company. It's just that I can't do what I originally planned to do."

After spending time together, Eddie has basically seen Sherlock's character clearly. If he decides something, he usually won't change it easily.

"Then where are you going after leaving the Ministry of Magic?"

Sherlock said thoughtfully.

"I don't have any plans yet, but I do want to go to Germany. Then I can take Amy with me."

Speaking of this, his expression suddenly became serious.

"If you want to entrust Amy to my care, of course I won't refuse, but I can't guarantee that it will be possible."

Eddie frowned.

"What's the meaning?"

"Maybe, I mean maybe. Maybe one day I will go on a long trip, and then I won't be able to take anyone with me."
