With Voldemort's re-emergence, Karkaroff, the principal of Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry who escaped prison by betraying other Death Eaters, was already a little panicked, and he knew that whether it was to appease people's hearts or really have anger, Voldemort would never let go of a traitor like himself after he returned. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Karkaroff was not a man who sat still, and he did not hesitate to pay any price to save his life. During this time, he desperately collected information, paid attention to the dynamics of the Death Eaters, wrote letters everywhere asking for help, expressed loyalty to the Death Eaters, asked for refuge from other forces, and contacted the Death Eaters who also betrayed Voldemort, hoping to keep warm - you can't expect the Death Eaters to be loyal people, in fact, there are definitely no more morally corrupt guys among them, such people see that their side is out of power, but they know very well the saying "those who know the times are handsome".

Karkaroff was really panicked, even people like Phyllis who had nothing to do with him received a letter for help, of course, as the principal of Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, he still had a reserve, there was no explicit plea in the letter, but he put his posture very low, but the meaning was very clear, that is, he hoped to be protected by her. Although it can't be compared with such a powerful force as the Order of the Phoenix and the Ministry of Magic, Phyllis has the name of an eternal after all, and there are really some people who think that she is a descendant of the Grim Reaper and is immortal, and she has a close relationship with many Ravenclaw families, Phyllis has been a professor at Hogwarts for twelve years, and the younger generation of Ravenclaw has basically been taught by her, and she still has a high reputation in Ravenclaw. Such a person was also regarded by Karkaroff as a force in the wizarding world, and he wrote a letter for help.

Phyllis received this letter three days ago, she knows a little bit about Karkaroff as a person, she clearly knows that this is not a trustworthy person, let alone expect him to repay his kindness, but at the same time, this person's previous identity background and current identity background give him a lot of bargaining chips, if he is willing to pay a little price, Phyllis does not mind making a gesture of sheltering him. Yes, it's just a gesture, in Phyllis's plan, she must not stand up to Dumbledore and confront Voldemort directly, she has to push the Death Eaters and the Order of the Phoenix to kill each other, preferably lose, and then she comes out to clean up the situation, so as to maximize the benefits. If Voldemort was really obsessed with killing the traitor, Phyllis would have given him away, and if needed, it was not impossible to tie him up and give it to Voldemort, as long as the Dark Lord was willing to pay some money.

In this way, it is also a good deal to shelter Karkarov, not only to extract a lot of good things from him, but also to make another profit by selling him at a critical time. Thinking of this, the corners of Phyllis's mouth hooked slightly, revealing a faint smile. It's not easy for me to come forward in this matter, it's better to ask someone to do it for me, but this candidate is not easy to decide, there are too few people I can trust in this mission world, and my four students are not bad, but they are only thirteen years old, and I am afraid they can't bear such a burden.

Unbeknownst to Phyllis, the students she taught weren't as comfortable as she thought they were.

……

Drake, who was on the outskirts of Hogsmeade before, tricked Leah into his plan, because Sirius appeared at Hogwarts, as the director of the Law Enforcement Department, Carl Pratt has been very busy recently, and Leah didn't dare to write to ask about Karkaroff at this time, and the matter was dragged down, and it was not until December that things progressed.

The weather had cooled down, and Leah received a large package from home, along with a few of the latest winter clothes and a letter from her father, Carl Price.

Leah put the letter away, continued to chat with her classmates, and returned to the dormitory after dinner, where she picked up the letter and read it carefully. In the letter, Karl answers his precious daughter's question, the Ministry of Magic has not been targeting Igor Karkaroff recently, and in addition, Carl writes some things about Karkaroff on the second page of the letter, which can be used as a lever to blackmail the headmaster of the School of Magic (spoiler alert, Leah's understanding of her father's letter is a little skewed), and at the end Carl warns: "Please use this information carefully, and if you are unsure about anything, discuss it with Professor Kate, Ravenclaw is not Gryffindor, Wisdom and curiosity are not reckless and reckless. ”

Leah was a little nervous and excited, and although Dad didn't ask her why she cared about such a thing, he seemed to have guessed it, and what Lia didn't expect was that despite the danger of being involved in such a dangerous matter—it was certainly a dangerous thing for a third-grader to deal with a cunning Death Eater traitor—Dad didn't stop her, but only warned her to be cautious and careful.

Dad doesn't treat himself as a child anymore, which makes Leah's heart pound, this matter must be done well, if it is done well, he can continue to enjoy such treatment, if he doesn't do it well, Dad will treat himself as a foolish child again.

At the same time, Carl Pratt's other letter from Carl Pratt arrived in Phyllis's hands, in which Carl surprised and intrigued Phyllis by the point he made, and she sat in front of the fireplace all night with the letter, and only wrote a reply when it was already dark.

Leah tore out a piece of paper from her sticky notepad, wrote a line on it, folded it into a paper crane, and tapped it with her wand, and the crane's wings fluttered and flew out of the window. This quick and discreet method of communication was taught to her by her father, of course, with her current magical abilities, which she couldn't do yet, but with a specially prepared sticky note book with magic attached, it was different. Liya looked at it, and she didn't have a few sticky notes left, so it seemed that she had to write to her father to ask for another one.

At a quarter past twelve o'clock in the evening, Drake Malfoy cautiously slipped out of the Slytherin quarters and came to a sculpture on the third floor. The process was much more thrilling than ever, as Sirius Black's sword hung over his head, and the school stepped up its night patrols, with a professor leading the patrol every night, and the prefects of the various houses checking the dormitories at night.

Fortunately, since the first grade, Draco has often been wandering around the castle at night, and he is very familiar with the terrain of the castle, plus after all, it has been a month, and he is not as nervous as he was at the beginning, plus Sirius Black has never appeared again, and many students, including the professor, have a calmer mentality, and they are not so nervous about the inspection.

Draco looked left and right, and after making sure that there was no one around, he pressed a small protrusion on the wall next to the base of the sculpture, and then chanted a spell against the wall, and a door that was only more than half a meter high swirled and appeared.

Why do you have to choose here? Draco grumbled inwardly and climbed in.

This is an abandoned room, even for a thousand-year-old magic castle, there are too many hidden rooms in Hogwarts, I don't know how many principals and professors have created many such abandoned classrooms in this school over the years, and what's more troublesome is that so many space magic concentrated in this castle often brings some unpredictable and wonderful reactions, for example, some rooms may be too crowded, and "swallow" each other, and some rooms will resonate under the effect of some magic, Split into a small room, and this small room will slowly grow. Overall, Professor Kate was amazed by the wonders of Hogwarts in this regard, and she still couldn't understand it when she told them about it at the History Interest Group meeting.

This room was one of them, it was discovered by Draco himself, and unlike the rooms he had found before, it was not an abandoned classroom, but an empty and cramped room, without any furniture, and when Drake came in, there was not even a speck of dust on the floor, as if it had been completely sealed before. Delaco didn't care about it at the time, and said it casually in a party, which aroused Professor Kate's great interest, and he came in to inspect it afterwards, which should be a room created because of magic and spatial resonance, but this room was not very stable, and when Drak brought Professor Kate in, he found that the room was half smaller. Professor Kate studied it for several days, casting some spatial magic on it to stabilize it temporarily, and setting up a ban in the entrance where only certain spells could open the door. The four members of their history interest group knew the mantra, so some of the more secluded private gatherings were often arranged here.

When Draco climbed in and saw that Leah had arrived, he patted the dirt on his body and said, "Why is it so early?" "They agreed that it was half past midnight, and Draco arrived early, but he didn't expect Leah to come earlier.

Liya said: "It's nothing, I just set off early, I didn't expect the road to be smooth, I didn't delay any time, and I came early." ”

As a base for the meeting, Professor Kate had set up some tables and chairs here, though Draco had no idea how such large furniture had come in through the small hole. At this time, there were two glasses of butterbeer on the table, and some cake pies.

Draco sat across from Leah and said, "This was taken from the kitchen?" ”

Leah said, "Prepared a little, I think we should plan it well." ”

Although Liya tried to keep her face strained and made her expression look calmer, the excitement in her eyes was not hidden at all, what was wrong with this girl, so excited? Draco muttered to himself, could it be...... Thinking of this, he asked cautiously, "Did your father reply to you?" When Leah asked him out, she didn't say what it was for, just that there was something to discuss.

Leah nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Draco said, "Mr. Karl is also in favor of this plan? "Otherwise, this girl wouldn't be so excited.

"No, but he didn't object," Leah said. ”

Draco raised an eyebrow, Carl didn't object because the risk of this matter was very small, so he was relieved to let his baby daughter do it, or did he say that the benefits of this matter were great, and it was not a matter of letting Leah take some risks? Small risk also means small return, so it is best to take the second case, Drake, who was awakened by Phyllis's ambition, is not afraid to take any risk, he is already risking his life as a Slytherin to replace Voldemort, and his only goal is to accumulate as many chips as possible.

In fact, it is neither the first case nor the second case, Carl just integrated Leah's ideas into his plan, not only Drake and a few of their third-year students are thinking about the future, there are many people who are starting to lay out the plan now, Carl is one of them, and his plan is not small. As a spoiled baby daughter, Lia didn't feel what kind of city and means her lovely father had, and it was not so easy for someone to sit in this position.

Draco said, "May I see Mr. Carr's reply to you?" ”

Leah hesitated, she did have the letter with her, she had intended to burn it, but she wanted Professor Kate to see if she could give some advice, after all, she also felt that dealing with Death Eaters was dangerous. But now Drake wants to see ...... Leah thought about it, and still gave the letter to Draco, of course, it's just the first page, some of the content of the second page involves the secrets of the Ministry of Magic, if you let others know that Dad casually revealed these things to herself, I'm afraid it will cause him some trouble, not that Leah doesn't trust Drake, but she knows that a secret is a secret only if she knows it.

Drake took the letter and read it carefully word by word, and what Leah saw was implicit support, but Drake only felt an ambiguous attitude. Leah deduced that her father was supporting her based on some of Karkaroff's "handles" that her father wrote to her on the second sheet, and Draco, who had not seen the second sheet, would naturally feel that Carl's attitude was not clear.

Maybe he should discuss it with his father, Draco thought to himself, but discussed the details of the plan with Leah.

ps: Children of Lia's age often have a special mentality, they are about to enter a rebellious period, but they retain their worship of their parents, at this time they hope that their parents will not treat them as children, they want to face their parents as an equal, so when Liya learned that her father did not scold her bold and reckless, but gave support, she was very excited. But it should be noted that this is just a psychological manifestation of adolescent children, deep down, they are indeed still children, so when the sticky notes are about to run out, Lia naturally thought of writing a letter to her father to ask for another one, and she didn't think that it was inappropriate to ask her parents for such a thing as an "adult" without anything.
