In the early hours of the next morning, before dawn, Sirius, who was huddled in a corner to rest, was awakened by a slight noise, jumped to his feet, and subconsciously touched his wand with his right hand, but did not touch anything.

Then, Sirius remembered where he was, and only then did he let his guard down.

Ivan on the side was dealing with the remnants of the potion that failed to boil last night, even at his current level of fifth-level potions, the first time he boiled a difficult potion like the Truth Elixir, it was only after several failures before he succeeded.

"You woke up so early?" Sirius was surprised, and then remembered something and frowned. "Or did you not rest all night?"

Ivan simply ignored him.

For Ivan, this is not the time to rest, and every time is precious.

He had already thought of a way to recreate the scene of that day.

This time, while luring out those snoopers, he was also preparing to use them for an experiment.

Sirius' silence upset Sirius, and he spoke again.

"Listen, kid, you should go to bed now, and give me your wand. Who you have to deal with, what you have to do, I can handle it for you. Killing isn't what a young wizard of your age should do, and you can't afford to risk it yourself! ”

Sirius was serious, and although he was anxious to find Peter's whereabouts after escaping Azkaban, it didn't mean that he would sit back and watch the children of his former comrades get into trouble.

In fact, Sirius didn't want to see a child of Ivan's age face a dangerous Dark Wizard, so it was worth the delay...

Ivan glanced at him, his eyes full of distrust, and the meaning was obvious...

It's up to you? Save it...

Sirius understood Ivan's eyes, he felt that he was completely underestimated, he was a seasoned wizard, and he had dealt with countless dark wizards.

In the Order of the Phoenix, his combat effectiveness is at the forefront, if not first.

Sirius believed that the main reason why he had been caught so easily was because he didn't have a wand in his hand.

Ivan's next words shattered Sirius's self-confidence.

"How many Dark Wizards have you dealt with at once? Three? Five? Ten? What if they have dozens? What do you do with them? Ivan asked.

Sirius was speechless, he didn't expect that there would be so many enemies he might have to face, and he was already struggling to face three or five dark wizards at the same time, and he was even at risk of defeat.

Anything more, he's more inclined to shy away for now...

"Are there really so many enemies?" Sirius was stunned to say that there were only a hundred Aurors in the Ministry of Magic, and he had thought that his opponent was just a powerful dark wizard.

"You'd better be prepared for this!" Ivan didn't know what was going to happen next, but he didn't want Sirius to be too careless.

Sirius saw that Ivan was not joking, so he did not blindly advise, but asked in detail about Ivan's follow-up.

Ivan didn't mean to hide it, and recounted his bait plan, then handed over the ten wands he had confiscated, and asked Sirius to choose the right one.

These wands were all he got from the black-robed wizards who attacked the magic shops.

It is worth mentioning that, for some reason, he did not find Althea's wand at the scene.

While Sirius was picking out his wand, Ivan drank the polyjuice potion, which tasted unpleasant, like expired soup.

After a few moments, Ivan's form continued to elongate and deform, and when he looked in the mirror, he realized that he was exactly the same as the young wizard he had killed with the snake eyes.

Ivan used Transfiguration to make his clothes fit better, and told Dobby and Sirius not to follow too closely so that they would not be suspected.

After saying that, Ivan took a kettle of compound decoction and walked straight out of this temporary residence.

Sirius reverted to a black dog and slowly followed, while Dobby snapped his fingers and disappeared in place.

......

When Ivan went out, he wandered aimlessly in the Tumbledown Alley, going as far as he could, and doing some strange things, or stirring up trouble, so as to attract the attention of most people.

As for the behavior and personality of the young wizard in black robes who did not match his disguise, it didn't matter.

The difference between this is nothing more than whether the other party sends someone to have friendly contact with him, or sends someone to arrest him for interrogation.

After a day of wandering, Ivan found that no one had come to contact him, and he had not been attacked in any way.

Ivan frowned, but still went to the final location as planned...

In the evening, Ivan stepped into the Leaky Cauldron in a black robe.

It's still noisy, with a rising stove steaming and two goblins sitting in the front row, arguing over who should pay for the drink.

A drunken wizard in the back sang a nasty tune in public, and the other guests didn't care, and some people joked kindly.

Ivan even saw Harry eating dinner in the corner, he seemed to be in a good mood, maybe because he had escaped punishment?

At the next table, two wizards were playing cards, one of them looking vaguely over to Harry's.

The other stared at Ivan, who had just entered, and saw that he was not going to Harry's side, so he looked at the wizard card in his hand with little interest.

Ivan guessed that the two men were probably the Aurors responsible for protecting Harry, but that had nothing to do with him.

"Boss, a bottle of butterbeer!" Ivan shouted loudly and threw a few bronze nats over.

"Got it, what are you doing so loudly?" Tom, who was chatting with a gorgeous witch, said dissatisfied, then took the money and put a bottle of butterbeer on the table.

The others in the tavern were also attracted by Ivan's loud voice, and they all glanced over to him.

Ivan also deliberately turned his head to signal to them, his purpose was to attract enough people's attention.

Ivan turned his head and poured a few sips of butterbeer into his mouth, and when he couldn't wait for anyone, he complained to Tom deliberately. "Recently, it's not very peaceful in the alley, and I always feel that it is not safe to travel."

When Tom heard this, he immediately became interested and immediately accosted. "Yes, I heard that two groups of dark wizards fought in a dark magic shop, and the fight lasted for a long time, leaving a lot of corpses and blood flowing all over the ground."

"Tut-tut... It is said that the Aurors who rushed over there were terrified...", Tom said with emotion.

Ivan frowned, he remembered that he had clearly placed the body of the attacker in the compartment, and all the traces had been disposed of.

Could it be that when he went to look for Doggett, an Auror led the team by?

Ivan always felt that what Tom said was not the same thing as what he said...
