Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

After shouting that sentence, Hogg gasped for breath, clearly exhausted from the tracking trip.

"What happened? Speak slowly. Were you discovered?" Anduin softly comforted Hogg, who was in a great hurry.

"I wasn't discovered, but I found something, and it's a serious problem," Hogg said, catching his breath.

"Is there anything special about that Golden Flying Knight?" Xia Tiya couldn't help but interject at this time.

"That... that Golden Flying Knight, his real identity is the Minister of the German Ministry of Magic!" Hogg stammered out the words.

"That's impossible!" Anduin's eyes widened in surprise upon hearing this. "How could the Golden Flying Knight be the Minister of Magic? Are you sure you didn't mistake someone?"

"At first, I also suspected that I was wrong, but after careful identification, I can be sure that the person holding the Golden Flying Knight mask is Minister Peter, the one you mentioned."

"We've only been here for a day, how could you recognize him as the Minister of Magic? We haven't even seen what the Minister looks like!" Xia Tiya was also taken aback by Hogg's words and immediately retorted.

"I'm not deaf, I can hear his conversations with others, and I clearly heard people calling him 'Minister'," Hogg said unhappily.

"Explain in detail the situation of your tracking of the Golden Flying Knight. Do you have any recorded video data?" Although Anduin was a little incredulous, seeing Hogg's affirmative state, he instinctively chose to believe him.

"It's like this..." Hogg took out a handful of recorded photos from his body and slapped them in front of Anduin, then explained in detail the process of his tracking all the way.

Originally, when Hogg began tracking the Golden Flying Knight, he was initially similar to Anduin and Xia Tiya. The other party basically stayed in the Ministry of Magic. To ensure safety, Hogg did not try to venture deep into the Ministry of Magic.

But he didn't go in, but the Golden Flying Knight came out. After Hogg squatted for a while, the Golden Flying Knight left the Ministry of Magic and went out with several other Ministry of Magic wizards.

It was at this time that Hogg locked onto the Golden Flying Knight and took pictures of him.

At the same time, Hogg also tried to eavesdrop on them, and then Hogg discovered that the Golden Flying Knight he was tracking was actually called the Minister of Magic by the other wizards!

This discovery also gave Hogg a big shock. Minister Peter's real identity is a secret cadre of the Silver Spear. This kind of thing is simply shocking.

After listening to Hogg's general description, Anduin picked up the photos of the Golden Flying Knight, or rather, Minister Peter.

The photo shows a middle-aged man in his sixties, with a well-proportioned figure and a healthy spirit, accompanied by several wizards in professional attire.

"That doesn't make sense," Anduin frowned involuntarily as he looked at the figure in the photo.

After Peter became the Minister of Magic, he fully promoted the division of the German magical world. If the other party was planted by the Silver Spear, or had some connection with the club, it would not be unacceptable.

But what he can't accept is that this Peter is the Golden Flying Knight himself.

Because from the information obtained from the Thunderbird, the Golden Flying Knight is also a wizard who has drunk the Elixir of Immortality, so the other party should follow two characteristics.

One is that the other party's appearance should be in his twenties or thirties, because the Elixir of Immortality has the effect of reversing aging, but judging from the figure in the photo, the other party's age is a bit too old, at least sixty or seventy years old.

But if the other party has not drunk the Elixir of Immortality, it doesn't seem like it, because the Golden Flying Knight is at least ninety or one hundred years old, and the figure in the photo seems too young.

Of course, it is also possible that the Golden Flying Knight used a deforming potion such as 'Polyjuice Potion' to transform himself, but this Minister Peter has been in office for five or six years, can he really guarantee that such a long period of transformation will not be discovered?

Moreover, Polyjuice Potion is not that simple to make. The potion that is enough for the other party to transform for five or six years requires a lot of materials.

Of course, this alone cannot completely prove that the other party is not disguised as the Golden Flying Knight.

The biggest problem is, how dare the Golden Flying Knight appear directly in a public environment after taking the Elixir of Immortality?

You must know that people who have taken the Snake Molting Potion have to undergo a snake molt once a month. During the snake molt, this person will have no ability to protect themselves.

Therefore, other snake molting wizards can't wait to completely hide themselves in the dark. This Peter, as the Minister of Magic, let's not talk about taking a lunch break all year round, but most of the time he has to stay in the public eye.

So Anduin really can't figure out where the other party got the courage to personally disguise himself as the Minister of Magic. Isn't he afraid that his secret will be discovered? What if someone sees him molting one day? You must know that the snake molting ritual lasts for 12 hours.

Or, if the Silver Spear, who knows his details, figures out the molting period, wouldn't he be easily manipulated and slaughtered?

"Master, what do you think? Could this guy be the Golden Flying Knight?" Xia Tiya also looked at Anduin with some uncertainty.

"I don't know. If this Minister Peter is really the Golden Flying Knight, then I can only say that the other party is really brave to dare to appear in the open."

After thinking for a moment, Anduin simply made a judgment, "There are several possibilities for the identity of the Golden Flying Knight now. First, this Peter is not the Golden Flying Knight. He just handed his mask to Peter and asked him to play the Golden Flying Knight for him."

"You mean..." Hogg suddenly realized upon hearing this, "This Peter is actually the Golden Flying Knight's substitute?"

"There is this possibility," Anduin nodded calmly, "Of course, there is another situation, that is, Peter is indeed the Golden Flying Knight himself, but the other party has some way to avoid the snake molting period, or a way to ensure his safety!"

"Then we only need to monitor him continuously for a month, and if the other party really has a snake molting period, wouldn't it prove that he is the Golden Flying Knight?" Hogg jumped up excitedly upon hearing this.

"Although this method is a bit stupid, it is not impossible." Anduin came out this time, and he didn't intend to solve it in the short term, "But in that case, we have to find a reasonable way to stay in Germany."

"Uh, what way? Our excuse this time is a business trip, and it seems that we can only stay for less than two months at most," Xia Tiya counted on his fingers.

"We can open a branch here and stay with this as an excuse," Anduin chuckled.

"Open a branch? Can the German Ministry of Magic agree?" Xia Tiya frowned upon hearing this.

Xia Tiya's worry is not unreasonable. It is very difficult for foreign companies to open branches or subsidiaries in their own countries, because that will squeeze the local product industry.

Like in the UK, except for 'Floo Pom Company' which produces Floo Powder, Gringotts, and a few publishing houses, you can hardly see industries from other countries. This is something that can't be done even with money.

"It doesn't matter whether they agree or not. Striving to open a branch, this behavior and motivation itself can be used as a cover for us to stay in Germany, so it doesn't matter even if it is unsuccessful later," Anduin laughed indifferently.

The situation in Germany is much more complicated than he imagined, and it is likely that it will not be settled in the short term, so finding an excuse to stay is very important.

"So that's how it is." Xia Tiya nodded upon hearing this, and then looked at Peter in the photo again, "Then how should we deal with this Minister Peter next? It's too passive to just rely on tracking."

"Indeed," Anduin nodded, but then hesitated, "But before figuring out the other party's details, it is not appropriate to act rashly, especially not to take direct action. This is the Minister of Magic. I don't want to be wanted by the German Ministry of Magic and be charged with attacking the Minister of Magic."

"It's really troublesome." Hogg scratched his head irritably with his hind legs, "Even if this Peter is not the Minister of Magic, he is at least closely related to the Silver Spear. I didn't expect this broken club to have such a deep infiltration in Germany. What good will it do for them to split Germany?"

"In the eyes of outsiders, splitting a country and the Ministry of Magic may be quite stupid, because from a political point of view, the power of the Minister of Magic will be divided," Anduin said with a cold smile, "But for illegal organizations like the Silver Spear, successfully splitting a Ministry of Magic can be used to place enough manpower in one of the branches, and then indirectly control a country!"

"You mean?" Xia Tiya's expression became serious, and then he exchanged a shocked look with Hogg, "They want to build a country completely controlled by them?"

"Don't say it, there is really such a possibility." Although Hogg also looked shocked, he still nodded calmly, "If the Ministry of Magic is successfully split, the personnel in the two newly established Ministries of Magic will definitely be selected from the existing staff, and Peter is very likely to become the Minister of Magic of one of the countries. He only needs to ensure that the Ministers of Magic of the country he serves are his own people, then it is equivalent to..."

"Equivalent to the imminent birth of a country completely controlled by the Silver Spear." Xia Tiya's face slowly turned ugly, and then he looked at Anduin, "If this is really the case, there may be many Silver Spears in Germany besides those four."

Anduin nodded in agreement upon hearing this. The four Silver Spears he was tracking were all based on Thunderbird's mask address book, so it seemed very few.

But if the Silver Spear is preparing to stage a political split in Germany, they will need a lot of manpower. It is very likely that they have developed more members and collaborators in Germany.

However, Anduin is not too worried that Germany will really be split because of this, because he remembers that the Berlin Wall will fall in two years, and East and West Germany will be reunified in three years.

Of course, this is on the basis of not carrying out a violent coup.
