Previously, Hogsmeade had prepared some simple furniture and done some processing when building this kind of temporary dwelling. For example, wizards will have a few simple protective spells on this house in the workshop they need, but the furniture in the house is simple, with only a shelf, a table, and a chair.

And now, Ryan and the others entered the door to find a book on the table that should have been empty. The book is not very large, and it is about the same size as a normal textbook. However, the whole book looks very shabby, and the black cover is spotted with spots peeling off in several places.

He checked it a few times with magic from afar, and after making sure that there was nothing unusual or harmful on it. Ryan and the others walked over to the table, then stepped forward and began to examine the old book on the table.

"The Tales of Poet Pean, why is this book?" Hermione had read this book before, and she didn't know why someone would bring them over and put this book in this place, after all, this book is basically a copy in every family in the wizarding world, similar to Hans Christian Andersen's Fairy Tales or Grimm's Fairy Tales in the Muggle world, and it seemed strange to use an anonymous letter to lure them in for this book.

"This book is still a little different from ordinary books. Ryan picked up the book on the table and looked at it carefully. "The book we have in our possession seems to be the earliest one, written in Rune, because many books have been censored in the later period, and I recognize the origin of this book now because I once saw a book similar to this one from Professor Dumbledore. ”

"Why did you want to redact the contents of these books?" Hermione didn't understand. "It's just a storybook! It's very different from the fairy tales we read when we were kids, but overall it looks positive and sunny, and it's also very suitable for children to read, and I don't think any of the stories here need to be cut. ”

"There really wasn't much of a problem with this book for us, but for wizards who ruled the wizarding world, there were some stories with a distinctly pro-Muggle leaning. To make matters worse, the book was published in the early fifteenth century. ”

"Early 15th century?" Hermione, as a student of an O in the history of magic, suddenly thought of what had happened in that era. "Do you mean it's because of the witch hunt?"

This was indeed the case, and the persecution of witches was on the rise in Europe at that time. So much so that many in the wizarding world felt that casting a spell on the pestilence pig of the Muggle neighbor next door was tantamount to actively adding firewood to the fire that burned them. As a result, the book was a bit out of place when it was written, and some wizards changed the book to make it distinctly anti-Muggle. ”

"For example, in the set of books I found at Sirius's house, the story of helping ordinary people was changed to the story of ordinary people persecuting wizards, and then the crucible that came back to life ate the story of ordinary people. Ryan explained.

"Racial hatred, racial strife, and cauldron cannibalism? I think that's the kind of story that's really inappropriate for kids. Hermione commented. "What the hell are the children of those pure-blood families educating them? ”

"And at that time, some even thought that any wizard who chose to be friendly with Muggles would be considered weak in magic and inferior in skill. For example, Brutus Malfoy, the direct ancestor of the Malfoy family, wrote in an anti-Muggle magazine, Wizards at War: "We can safely say that any wizard who expresses a liking for Muggle society is a person of low intelligence, whose magic is weak and pitiful, and whose magic is weak and vulnerable, and who can only find a little superiority in Muggle waste." ”

"Of course, we now know that he is talking complete nonsense. Ryan spread his hands. "I can assure you that I can now defeat the Malfoys by myself, and we now have more wealth than the Malfoys have accumulated over the centuries. ”

Hermione covered her mouth and laughed quietly after hearing Ryan's words, and Ryan lit an oil lamp in the room, and then flipped through the pages of this fairy tale book by the light of the oil lamp, and soon Hermione also recovered and gathered around Ryan to read the book together.

"It's a bit strange that the person who left the book behind. After flipping through the entire book, Ryan said, "Maybe it's to match the cover and content of the book, all the messages in it are actually in ancient runi script, and I wouldn't have been able to read them if I hadn't obtained the inheritance before." ”

This means that the previous owner of the book is likely to be a pure-blood wizard with some family history. Hermione said, "As far as I know, pure-blooded wizarding families have chosen to learn the ancient rune as a way to make a statement. Just like the aristocrats in England could learn Latin or Greek, all but the two of us were wizards from pure-blood families when I took the Ancient Magic Course. ”

"You have a point. Ryan flipped a page of the book, then pointed to a line of rune and said to Hermione. You see, the main message of the book is focused on the pages of the Wizard and the Hopping Pot, for example, in the title he writes: Is this just a fairy tale? The same phrase appears once in the story of the last three brothers, but with an extra sign of the Deathly Hallows. ”

In other words, this person wants to remind us that the jumping pot is real. Hermione pointed her finger to her chin and said, "But what does this have to do with us?

"It's certainly not because they've gone around in such a big circle to tell us a clue to their adventure," Ryan affirmed, "For example, there are two other comments on the story page of Hopping Pot, one of which says that everyone dreams of getting such a magical treasure." In another place, it is written that magic is powerful. ”

"It seems that this should indeed be left to us by some pure-blood family, otherwise it would not have been written like this. Hermione said, "So what are we going to do now, are we using magic to track down that person?"

"Of course, it can't be that people have found the door and don't know what's going on, right?" Ryan shrugged. "I also know that the whole tossing and turning of that guy just now is to prevent us from finding him, but I think that guy should not know that we have surpassed most people in soul and space research, and I have already started tracking it when I got the book, and now I can basically lock the other party's location. ”

"Shall we go find that guy now?" Hermione asked, a look of eagerness on her face. In the three months since the outbreak of this war, she has completely mastered her abilities, and at the same time, she has begun to feel a little bit of combat under the influence of the power of death, so she has become somewhat interested in this possible raid.

"Let's find it the day after tomorrow. Ryan said. "These two days are Christmas holidays, so I think it's better for us to have two days off. Anyway, I've basically locked the identity and location of the other party now, and I can basically tell who that guy is. ”

"Have you identified the other person's identity and location? That's great news. Hermione nodded, she could guess that Ryan would dare to guarantee the location and identity of the other party so confidently, probably after locking the other party's location, she found that the other party appeared in the manor of a pure-blood family.

Although they had raided several pure-blood estates in the past, the main target was the plantation. After all, their goal is only to cut off each other's economic resources, not to kill for the sake of killing.

At the same time, during the attack on the manor, each time they attacked Manor, they would always leave a text explaining the reason for their attack, such as punishing the dark wizard who killed innocents indiscriminately, or rescuing the hostages.

In this case, some of the marginal Death Eaters who did not participate in the indiscriminate killing of innocents and did not hold hostages on the estate still chose to live in their homes. After all, according to the history of previous attacks, Ryan did not mistakenly kill any innocent people during the attack.

Therefore, those who are more marginal Death Eaters who cannot abandon their homes because of their family's wealth and knowledge can now only choose to trust their family's lives on the discipline of Ryan as an enemy, and the person who sent the anonymous letter that Ryan tracked down through the traces left in books and letters should be one of these fringe Death Eaters.
