A group of people walked towards Malfoy Manor.

The wrought-iron gate blocked their way, but no one really stopped, but an apparition appeared and passed through it as if the black gate didn't exist.

The yew hedge made the footsteps of the crowd sound a little muffled.

There was a sudden rustling sound somewhere to the right, and a wizard instantly drew his wand and raised it above his companion's head.

The wizard had such a strange appearance, his hair was gray, and his eyes were completely different, one black and the other bright blue.

Arthur Weasley raised his hand and comforted, "Alastor relax, just a white peacock." ”

The Mad-Eyed man's eye turned around a few times to make sure it was indeed just a peacock and not some wizard, so he put down his wand and stuffed it back into his cloak.

"This Malfoy is always so bells and whistles, peacock...... It's really similar to their family's stinky and beautiful character. The Mad-Eye snorted.

He said rudely: "I don't know if the white peacock will taste very fragrant if it is stewed and eaten!" ”

Arthur was speechless, and he began to worry about whether it was a bad decision to bring the Mad-Eye Man here.

There were four of them in total.

In addition to Arthur, the director of the Office for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Items, there was also a staff member named Perkins.

Perkins is an old wizard, Arthur's colleague and subordinate, with fluffy gray hair, who is soon retiring.

In addition to the two of them, there are also members of the Magical Law Enforcement Scout Team.

The Magical Law Enforcement Scout Team, formerly known as the Magical Law Enforcement Team, is a department responsible for general law enforcement.

Finally, add a retiring Auror Mad Eye Han Moody to form a four-person assault team this time.

At the end of the straight road, a very decent mansion appeared in front of several people.

They creaked down the gravel road towards the main entrance, and as soon as they came to them, they were about to knock on the door when it was opened.

Lucius walked out, and he stood in the doorway, and his eyes were immediately drawn to Arthur in the front.

He looked at Arthur and said domineeringly, "Why are you here?!" ”

"Raids from the ministry." Arthur smirked.

"Inspection in the Ministry...... Even so, you should have notified me first when you came to my house, didn't you? Lucius' face was gloomy, remembering the Muggle Protection Act he had seen earlier.

I didn't expect that I was still worried before, but now the other party is coming to the door.

"It's private territory, and you're just swaggering in, I can assume I'm ready to act in self-defense......," Lucius threatened.

"Come on!" The Mad-Eye man pulled out his wand, and he limped towards Lucius, making a loud thud every time his right foot landed, and boom, boom.

"If you have the ability, you will attack the Aurors, try it, whose spell is fast!"

There was a terrible silence all around. Except for Moody's, no one dared to move.

Moody's face was terrifying at this point, his normal eye, looking at Lucius's, and the other eye, digging into his head, looking warily in other directions.

It seems that it will be attacked from other directions at any time.

"Mad-Eyed Man...... Why are you here too? Lucius took two steps back in fear, "It's just a check of dark magic items, can you still use the Aurors?" ”

Lucius was right, the raid was led by Arthur Weasley's department, and it was only for the inspection of dark magic items.

He's already brought someone from the Magical Law Enforcement Scout Team.

The Spotting Team functions similarly to that of Muggle police, and is usually responsible for routine law enforcement tasks.

The Auror Office, on the other hand, is responsible for dealing with high-risk or special magical crimes.

The arrival of the Crazy Eye is a bit of a fuss, it's like you're drinking tea at home and suddenly the FBI kicks the door open and shouts, "Openthedoor!" ”

For you, you are also nervous!

What's more, the Mad Eye is not an ordinary Auror, he is known for his fierce style, and he has killed many ...... with his own hands Death Eaters!

Arthur pulled the Mad-Eye back and said in as gentle a tone as he could, "Malfoy, who is going to check has nothing to do with you.

This is a joint departmental operation, and this is the warrant of Mr. Amelia Bones, Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement!

It's completely reasonable and legal, please get out of the way! ”

Arthur shook a piece of paper.

The Department of Magical Law Enforcement is one of the seven departments that make up the Ministry of Magic, responsible for the administration of justice and the enforcement of the law, and is the largest department of the Ministry of Magic.

It includes a number of departments, including the Department for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Magic, the Office of the Aurors, and the Division for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Objects.

Arthur and his departments all belong to the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, and there is no problem with saying that it is a joint investigation.

Lucius grimaced that Amelia Bones was the one Dumbledore had pushed up...... Sooner or later, kill him.

But Lucius didn't move away, and stood in the doorway.

"Why, you don't dare let us in?" The Mad-Eyed man sneered, "Afraid that my eyes will find your master's things?" ”

"What do you mean?!" Lucius took two steps back, "I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean, Moody. ”

Lucius tried to make his tone more contemptuous, as if he didn't give a damn about Moody's words, but his hands exposed his heart, and they involuntarily clenched into fists.

Lucius didn't dare to confront the Mad-Eye and turned his gaze to Arthur, who was becoming more and more bald.

"I also have a disagreement with your actions, we all know that Moody would have wasted the night if he hadn't found out before dinner that seven men were trying to murder him."

Lucius protested loudly, "He has a serious suspicion, I'm here in a private house, in case he doesn't control himself......"

"What, I'm suspicious?" Moody roared, "My job is to deal with the Dark Wizards—you shouldn't forget ......"

"Alasto!" Arthur stopped. "Don't tell him, he's stalling for time, he should have sent a letter to the ministry through the fireplace just now."

Lucius looked at Arthur in annoyance.

The four of them ignored Lucius and walked in.

Lucius stared at them with a gloomy look in his eyes.

Fifteen minutes later, Umbridge arrives with Fudge's cease and desist order.

Arthur Weasley they just searched the antechamber and found some prohibited items, more rooms that they hadn't had time to search yet.

After the Ministry of Magic officials left, Lucius hurried into his study.

Draco had left, and the coffee had been cleaned from the carpet.

"What should I do?" Narcissa worried. "Or do you want to put it all in the vault?"

"It's all dark magic items, why put them in the vault?" Lucius thought for a moment and said, "Let's sell it in batches to Tumbledown Alley." ”

"What do you think about this, my dear?" Narcissa wondered, "How dare Weasley and others raid our house behind the back of the Minister of Magic?" ”

"How could Fudge not know!" Lucius said annoyedly, "He must know, but he just deliberately pretended not to know, waiting for me to write to him!"

Then, he pinched the time, waited ten minutes, and sent Umbridge.

I was able to confiscate some things and give the Weasleys a little face, but it wouldn't hurt me and sell me some face.

Finally, you can beat us up and ask me to donate more gold Galleons to slap him up!

Fudge, he's taking advantage of the fight between me and Weasley, and that's a pretty good balance! ”

Lucius stood up tiredly, "Alright, I'll go in and find out some illegal items, and I'll go to the Borgin Gram store and sell them in a few days."

That stingy old guy will be very happy! ”

He suddenly turned around and walked to the distant side. It was an eight-foot-long portrait of William I.

As Lucius cast his magic, the portrait on the wall opened like a door, revealing the entrance to a real tunnel.

He walked in, about two minutes, into a slightly smaller room, filled with clutter.

Some are very precious magical items, but most are black magic items.

Of course, the really valuable things are in the Gringotts vault.

Lucius rummaged through the shelves, tossing a roll of parchment and a few heads into the box.

He quickly walked to the end of the shelf, where nothing but a thick dusty diary remained.

Lucius picked up the journal.

The faded date on the cover indicates that it was fifty years ago.

When he opened it, on the first page, he could only recognize one name written in vague ink: Tomridel.

This diary is the item that Lucius needs to deal with, because it was given to him by Voldemort!

It used to be glory, but now it's a hot potato.

If he is searched by Weasley, it will be enough for him to get a one-way ticket to Azkaban, and then live with Bella, the beautiful little sister-in-law.

Lucius quickly flipped through the diary, which was blank and there was nothing.

Since it is an item rewarded by the Dark Lord, it naturally has a special purpose.

But he studied it many times, but found nothing.

In fact, Lucius once asked his father, Abraxas Malfoy.

The diary was fifty years ago, and his father was attending Hogwarts at the time, so he should have known something.

But his father only told him that the journal might open the Chamber of Secrets and clean up the Muggle students at Hogwarts.

He refused to say more, and he was secretive about the vague name of Tomridel.

Wait a minute......

If this diary is so powerful, why not secretly throw it to Weasley's children?

Think of the fact that Weasley, a man who made the Muggle Protection Act, attacked a Muggle-born student at Hogwarts.

Weasley's reputation would be ruined, and he might be disqualified from making laws, which would stall for time.

If there are too many dead, Dumbledore can be kicked out of Hogwarts.

The most important thing is to get rid of this very trouble-prone piece of physical evidence.

It's killing three birds with one stone...... Lucius admired his brain, how could he be so smart!

Even if none of this succeeds, there is nothing to lose.

Lucius really didn't have much hope.

After all, Riddle ...... At first glance, it is a mudblood's surname, and his diary can really open the secret room?

By Riddle?

Hehe......

A diary keeper?

Who writes a diary for serious people?

In front of Riddle, Lucius dared to scold like this:

Cheap!
