Magical Studies at Hogwarts

Since moving into Malfoy Manor, Comrade Lao Fu has never left the basement of the castle, leaving all external activities to the Death Eaters who came to the cemetery that night. Everyone has their own tasks.

Snape was still sent back to Dumbledore as an undercover agent. McNeil, Norton and others were responsible for finding the hidden Death Eaters and wooing the wizarding families who had taken refuge with him during the First Wizarding War. Lucius

Because of his special relationship with the Ministry of Magic, Comrade Lao Fu asked him to continue to maintain the relationship with the Ministry of Magic as a spy to learn the secrets of the Ministry of Magic.

As for Wormtail, he is only responsible for serving Comrade Lao Fu. There is no other way. If little Barty escapes from Hogwarts, then this job must be his.

Unfortunately, little Barty received the Dementor's kiss and became a walking corpse.

The basement was still dark, and Comrade Lao Fu didn't like too bright an environment. There were only a few candles flickering with firelight. When Ike came in, Comrade Lao Fu was sitting in his exclusive chair, with his wand in front of him.

On the long table, Nagini was curled up in a ball at her feet. She only raised her head slightly and glanced at Ike before lying back down again.

"Teacher, you are looking for me." Ike bowed and saluted. Seeing Comrade Lao Fu wave his hand, Ike sat on the chair to his left.

"Little Ike, tell me, is the reputation of the Dark Lord no longer a deterrent? Why did my former servant refuse my call?" In the darkness, Comrade Lao Fu's red pupils were particularly conspicuous, flashing strangely.

of light.

"People are greedy, and the luxurious and beautiful life makes them lose themselves." Ike said slowly, "Maybe I can give them a reminder."

"Yes, someone should remind them." Comrade Lao Fu nodded, looked at Ike and said, "So, little Ike, can you do this well?"

"I think I can." Ike was confident and looked quite confident.

"I think so too." Comrade Lao Fu tapped his fingers on the table and said calmly, "You are my most trusted student. With your ability, you will definitely be able to complete this matter well."

"It just so happens that you also need to show your abilities to the servants."

"I understand, teacher."

"Then, let's set off tomorrow, find Karkaroff, and ask him for me why he has the courage to escape but not the courage to see his master?" Comrade Lao Fu's voice was full of murderous intent.

"Tell him that the Dark Lord does not need timid servants..."

"Then, kill him!"

"I will." Without any hesitation, Ike immediately agreed.

"Lucius will help you. He will tell you where to look for that coward." Comrade Lao Fu ordered, his right hand gently falling on Ike's shoulder, "When you come back after success, don't

Forgot to go to Knockturn Alley and bring Greyback to see me. What we are going to do next will require a lot of werewolves."

"Don't worry, when you finish this, I will reward you."

"Let me think about it...how about the Book of Melvin left by the evil Melvin? You can't find this in Hogwarts."

Ike stood up and saluted Comrade Lao Fu again.

"I won't let you down, teacher."

Comrade Lao Fu was obviously very satisfied with Ike's performance. He laughed happily and gave him a few more instructions before letting him leave.

Early the next morning, Ike, who was ready, found Lucius. Comrade Lao Fu had given him instructions in advance. When he saw Ike coming, he said directly: "Karkaroff is hiding very deep.

We and many other people are looking for him, but in the end we found the clue first."

"Someone saw a strange man in the Black Forest of Northern Ireland. From the description, he should be Karkaroff." Lucius said, "I heard this from Scrimgeour when I was chatting with him.

"Obviously, our Aoluo office director didn't care, and even thought this was a false clue like the previous ones."

"Are you sure?" Ike asked.

"It should be him." Lucius replied, "Since that night, the Ministry of Magic has increased patrols of the border and strengthened the management of door keys. It is impossible for him to escape the country."

"So, things like Norway, Germany, and Finland were excluded first." As he said, Lucius showed a trace of disdain on his face, "I know Fudge very well, even though he always said that the master's return was a lie, but that

It's because he is more afraid than everyone else. You should have seen from the Daily Prophet that after the Triwizard Tournament, our minister sealed off the entire UK because he beat people up? There are also many more wizards on the streets.

"

"Those are not Aoluo, but Fudge's confidants. He obviously wants to find the master first, and maybe he has some unrealistic ideas..."

"It not only solved the big trouble in the wizarding world, but also tripped up Dumbledore..." Lucius's eyes flickered, as if pointing, "Don't think of others too simply, no matter how stupid they seem.

."

Ike didn't say anything extra, just nodded. Lucius didn't say anything more, took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Ike. It showed a dense forest, with only a small open space in the lower left corner.

"Did you see that empty space? That's your target." Lucius said, "As I said just now, the portkey is very strictly guarded, and other methods are too conspicuous, so you can only phantom.

past."

"This photo was taken last year, so there should be no problem." Lucius added.

Holding the photo, Ike looked at it carefully for a long time before putting it in his pocket.

"The manor's anti-Apparition magic has been lifted."

"certainly."

"That's good."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ike waved his magic wand, and his whole body disappeared in front of Lucius in an instant.

This time was a completely different experience. This was the first time for him to travel long distance. Ike was not completely sure at all. Fortunately, his current magic power was enough to support him in doing this, and he finally reached the photo point smoothly.

There was an open space inside, but it was unavoidable that he stumbled a bit when he landed.

After shaking his dizzy head and resting on the spot for a while, Ike took the wand and walked into the forest.

It was quiet inside the forest, and there was a thick layer of fallen leaves on the ground, which had been accumulated over the years. It was so thick that it made a "crunch, crunch" sound when stepped on.

Ike did not use magic to eliminate the sound that might reveal his whereabouts. He did not care about Karkaroff finding him. In fact, only by alerting Karkaroff could he be found. When facing the wizard, give directions.

Curses are not reliable.

Moreover, it is not an easy thing to find a wizard who deliberately hides himself in a huge forest.
