The Wind and the Eagle Wings at Hogwarts
Chapter 420 420. Surveillance of Malfoy Manor
Coming to the Crow Territory again, this time Scott, in addition to training his proficiency in Animagus transformation at a fixed time every day, devoted himself to learning the magic circuit.
Even the food he eats every day is bought by Rimbaud in Hogsmeade.
After five days of intense practice, almost forgetting sleep and food, he finally mastered the use of that set of magic circuits.
After that, he finally took a good bath, slept, and spent three days studying [Magic Mirror], transforming it into [Magic Mirror 2.0], adding the function of receiving "signals" remotely.
"Now let's try it out."
In the Oak Cottage, Scott sat cross-legged at the door.
He placed a lizard on the floor, picked up the modified [Magic Mirror] with his hand, stretched out his finger and tapped on the mirror surface.
Soon, the real-time picture of what the lizard saw appeared on the mirror.
"connection succeeded."
He turned to Rimbaud and ordered, "Now take that lizard and fly as far away as possible. Of course, the further away the better."
"Why don't you let it turn into a bird by itself!" Rimbaud complained.
"Because the lizard is relatively inconspicuous." Scott replied, "I hope to use it to sneak into Malfoy Manor."
"Alright alright."
Rimbaud grabbed the lizard with his claws and flew out of the oak hut.
Scott leaned back, leaning against the wall of the cabin, spreading his legs, and stared at the changes in the picture in the [Magic Mirror].
Rimbaud was flying very fast, and what quickly passed through the mirror was a scene overlooking the forest.
Because Scott said the farther the better, Rimbaud obeyed and flew very far. It even flew out of the forest, flying from the northern highlands of Scotland towards the south of England.
Scott belatedly realized that it wanted to send the lizard directly to Malfoy Manor in Wiltshire.
Scott originally wanted to let Rimbaud do this after testing, but he thought about it and did not stop Rimbaud from action.
After that, he no longer stared at the [Magic Mirror] all the time, but used the [Book of Prometheus] to communicate with Bill and Lucio to pass the time.
It wasn't until night, when Rimbaud was close to his destination, that he turned his attention to the picture presented in the "Magic Mirror".
At this time, the lizard caught by Rimbaud was far away from the forest where he was, and the real-time picture in the [Magic Mirror] was still very clear, which made Scott satisfied and a little proud at the same time.
Rimbaud flew over a small town, over a wheat field, and blended into a group of crows perching in the woods.
These crows should be the ones sent by Rimbaud to monitor Malfoy Manor.
Because of Scott's instructions, Rimbaud did not approach the manor on his own, but handed the lizard to another crow.
The crow grabbed the lizard and flew up again.
Looking at the picture in the mirror, Scott noticed that after the crow flew for a certain distance, it started to turn involuntarily when it was going straight.
This should be the effect of the curse.
Scott narrowed his eyes.
He did not expect that the magical protection of Malfoy Manor was stricter than that of Yaxley Castle he once monitored, and even ordinary birds would be blocked by it.
Fortunately, Rimbaud, who was outside the screen, must have also discovered this phenomenon and sent out another crow.
The two crows quacked and exchanged a few words before finally placing the lizard on the ground.
The lizard began to crawl forward on its own.
Scott stared nervously at the picture in the mirror, wondering if he could pass the test.
But obviously, the lizard failed. It crawled forward for a certain distance and then unconsciously started to turn.
Not long after, probably on Rimbaud's orders, the crows took the lizards back to the woods where they lived.
Scott heard Rambo squawk a few more times, and then saw it flying high into the air again grabbing the lizard.
Apparently, it was trying to see if it could break through from the air.
Scott thought the same way - after reaching a certain height, he would definitely be out of the range of Malfoy Manor's protective magic.
After Rimbaud flew high into the sky, he seemed to fly over the Malfoy Manor as estimated.
At this time, what Scott saw in the mirror was a forest, but he knew very well that this was just a disguise of magic.
Then, Rimbaud loosened his grip on the lizard.
As the lizard plummeted through the sky, at a certain height it seemed to pass through a layer of smoke.
Next, Scott saw the Malfoy Manor from the air in the "Magic Mirror" as he wished.
This is a dignified and luxurious lord's residence surrounded by well-designed gardens. Every plant in the garden seems to have been carefully trimmed and looks particularly neat. There are even luxurious fountains embellished among them.
The lizard successfully landed on the lawn in the garden.
Several white peacocks were pacing on the lawn, and they gathered around the lizard the moment they saw it.
Fortunately, the lizard created by Scott using the transformation technique had the instinct to escape and quickly slipped into the neatly trimmed bushes, avoiding the peacock's pursuit.
The peacocks gathered around the bushes and started chirping.
"Oh, damn, what are you crazy about? Don't make any noise."
At this time, a boy's voice was heard with a suppressed voice.
Hearing this somewhat familiar voice, Scott couldn't help but laugh.
Sure enough, not long after, little Malfoy, whom he hadn't seen for a while, came into view.
He walked up to the peacocks and waved.
"Be quiet."
He scolded in a low voice, and then simply squatted down.
"Honestly, don't make a scene, or you'll die miserably, and even my father and I can't save you."
At this moment, Scott could see the appearance of Malfoy.
After more than 20 days of not seeing him, the boy seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and his cheeks, which were originally chubby, became sunken.
His eyes were slightly bulging, his eye sockets were deep, his face was haggard, his expression was still uneasy and frightened, and his originally pale face was even whiter than paper.
"Draco."
At this moment, another familiar voice sounded.
"Professor Snape."
Malfoy stood up quickly and walked out to the lawn.
"It's time for your break."
Snape's tone was cold.
"Yes, Professor."
The lizard hiding at the root of the bush moved, and the angle of the picture in the [Magic Mirror] changed. Scott saw Malfoy walking dejectedly to Snape in a black robe.
"Let's go, you must finish today's course."
Snape looked at Malfoy expressionlessly, turned around and walked into the manor.
"Yes..." Malfoy followed him and asked in a somewhat excited tone, "Professor, will I be able to join you soon, Master..."
Snape suddenly turned around and said coldly in a warning tone: "Don't mention the Master's affairs rashly, Draco, remember, you are not yet able to do anything for the Master, so do what you should do and don't act on your own."
"Yes, Professor."
Malfoy became dejected again.
The two soon walked into the manor one after another.
Malfoy seemed to be frustrated that he could not join the Death Eaters, but Scott, who was watching this scene, could understand that Snape said that just to protect him.
Not only that, Scott thought more at this moment.
The appearance of Snape meant that the double agent was still successful, which also meant that Dumbledore had successfully grasped Voldemort's traces.
Scott didn't know why Dumbledore didn't take action. After thinking about it, he guessed that it might be because of Harry's existence.
Harry had inadvertently become Voldemort's Horcrux. Before Harry's problem was dealt with, Voldemort could not be killed.
At the same time, Scott also gave up his original plan to report to Dumbledore after discovering Voldemort's traces.
However, now was not the time to think about these things. At this moment, he wanted to explore the secrets hidden in this manor.
The lizard quickly took action again.
A lizard only one finger long would not attract attention. It quickly crossed a large garden and climbed onto the outer wall of the building.
According to the settings Scott gave it, the lizard climbed towards the windowsill of the manor building.
In a window on the first floor, Scott saw the figures of the Carrow brothers and sisters he was looking for as he wished.
At this time, the Carrow brothers and sisters were sitting together with several Death Eaters and talking about something. Little Malfoy's parents were also among them. It was just a pity that although it was summer and the windows were open, the sound of their conversation did not go out.
This was obviously also the effect of magic.
The lizard lay on the windowsill, and its gray body almost merged with the gray slate.
For safety reasons, in Scott's setting, the lizard would not enter the room.
At this time, it seems that this decision is clear.
There is a window, but even the sound cannot be heard. Obviously, there is magic in the room, and it will be discovered if you are not careful.
Scott tried hard to identify the mouth shape of the speaker in the picture, but found that he did not have this skill.
He could only recognize the faces of those people, but found that he did not know them at all.
Even Barty Crouch, who escaped from home thanks to him, Scott did not know his appearance.
But Scott still remembered the faces of these people.
Not long after, those who gathered together to talk seemed to have finished what they wanted to say and left the room one after another.
After they left, the lizard lying on the windowsill moved again.
Scott saw the scene at the gate of the manor building.
Except for the Malfoy couple and a young wizard, everyone else walked out of the gate.
The lizard crawled on the wall and got closer.
"Go back, hide well, and wait for the master's call."
A middle-aged wizard said seriously.
After saying this, he looked at the Carrow siblings again.
"I don't want you to make any more trouble before the master orders." His expression and tone were vicious, "Remember, you have already caused Dumbledore's attention twice, and even aroused the vigilance of foreign wizards."
"Calm down, Parkinson, I said, we just want to kill that little mudblood to avenge our poor nephew." Amycus Carrow said in a low voice.
The voice of the middle-aged wizard seemed to be squeezed out from the teeth, "I also said, don't care how your damn nephew died, that stupid boy, he killed his fiancée, causing the Rawl family to be enemies with us, which has made the master very dissatisfied with you."
"Sorry." Amycus Carrow seemed to be subdued, "We won't act on our own again."
"You'd better be honest." Parkinson warned again, then turned and strode away.
After crossing the garden and walking out of the manor gate, he immediately disappeared from the spot with Apparition.
Several others followed closely behind him and disappeared using Apparition.
Only the Carrow siblings were left standing there.
"What should we do?" Amycus Carrow, who had been dealing with Parkinson, turned his head and glanced inside, then lowered his voice and asked his sister.
Of the two, it seemed that the younger sister, Alecto Carrow, would make the decision.
"There is no way to act for the time being." Alecto Carrow, who was burly, had a gloomy face like a man, "The little mudblood has been protected by Dumbledore and Flitwick."
"Damn it." Amycus Carrow gritted his teeth.
"Wait a little longer, until the master... we can attack Hogwarts openly." Alecto Carrow said.
The two talked for a few words, and then quickly left the manor.
Scott could only watch the two disappear through Apparition, but he couldn't follow them, and he was a little disappointed.
He was just thinking that if the lizard could lie on one of the two siblings without anyone noticing, maybe they could take it away and then find their hiding place.
Unfortunately, the lizard he created was not intelligent enough, and he had no way to remotely control its actions for the time being.
However, this also reminded him of lizards, or the evolutionary direction of this monitoring product - remote control control.
However, it seemed that there were many changes involved, and he only had a little clue for the time being.
At present, the lizard has successfully sneaked into Malfoy Manor, so let him continue to monitor here.
While he was thinking about this, the lizard began to crawl on the wall again.
At this time, the room on the first floor had become empty, and Scott did not see anyone through the other windows.
Then, the lizard began to climb up.
Scott saw the Malfoy couple who seemed to be arguing in a room on the second floor, but unfortunately their voices still could not be heard outside the window.
Then, he saw the little Malfoy who was making potions under Snape's guidance in another room.
The lizard crawled around the wall of the entire manor building, but Scott did not see anyone else.
Including the young wizard who stayed in the group just now.
Scott suspected that it was Barty Crouch Jr., who had heard of him for a long time but never seen him.
This made him guess that Voldemort was hiding in this manor.
But the target was not seen in all the rooms, so there was only one possibility left - Voldemort might be in the basement.
But before that, Scott had never thought of this possibility.
After all, Voldemort was always superior to his men, and Scott always thought that he would live in the best room in the manor.
Scott didn't know whether to be disappointed or relieved when he didn't see Voldemort.
For safety reasons, his lizard would not enter the room. If Voldemort didn't come out on his own, he couldn't confirm Voldemort's current state.
But at the same time, he was inexplicably relieved.
The reason is that this dark lord can still bring a lot of pressure to people.
Scott even thought about whether his lizard would be discovered by Voldemort the moment it entered the manor.
Fortunately, what he was worried about did not happen.
