Europe, England, Little Hangleton.

Standing in the middle of Little Hangleton, Bernard was like a traveler, just casually walking down the street, while constantly looking around, and the Muggles passing by him continued to do their work as if they didn't see him.

Slowly walking out of the town, standing on a winding path, Bernard looked up at the roof tiles, several windows were sealed, and the creeper crawled full of houses on a hillside, from which the whole village could be seen.

This is the mansion of Voldemort's biological father, the Riddle family. Riddle House, once a beautiful mansion, the most spacious and imposing building within a few miles, is now damp, desolate, and uninhabited for many years, and no one visits it except the old gardener, Frank.

After staring at it for a while, Bernard unconsciously wandered a little, if the pure-blood wizards who supported Voldemort saw their master, the great Dark Lord had half of his blood from this old Muggle mansion, and he didn't know if they would go crazy.

Shaking his head, Bernard turned and walked in the opposite direction, where Bernard had his destination today - the old Gaunt house.

A winding path through the small woods leads to a shack-like house where Marvolo Gaunt and his two children, Muffin and Merope, live.

Looking at this house that was even more dilapidated than the slums, Bernard couldn't imagine that this was the residence of the only descendants of the Slytherin family, who would have thought that this family, who ranked first in the "Wizard's Crest", would end up in such a state. However, this is also the trend of the times, with the establishment and improvement of the Ministry of Magic, the status of pure-blood families is much less than before, and now most of them are just looking noble.

And the Gaunt family is not without a way to die, it is said that because the Gaunt family has always insisted on internal intermarriage and kept the bloodline pure, the family's newborn magic talent is getting lower and lower, and some even can only speak snake language, and they can't communicate with other wizards normally, and in order to maintain the nobility of the Gaunt family, extravagance and waste have long been commonplace in this family, and it is normal to end up in this ending.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the small fragments of sunlight scattered in the forest made the house look less dilapidated and poor, and by the faint sunlight, Bernard carefully looked at the house, the low fence had long since decayed, and the small door in the courtyard wall had fallen into the broken bricks, and his eyes looked around.

Finally, Bernard's gaze was fixed on a few dead snakes, like air-dried bacon, and these snake corpses hung there so hard, and after looking at these snake corpses that seemed to hang randomly and randomly, Bernard drew his wand.

"Shut your eyes and ears", "Muggle shielding", "confuse the public"......

After a few simple precautions, Bernard stepped forward with his wand in his hand, and by this time the sun had completely set, and the old house looked a little strange and terrifying in the dark woods.

A "spherical light" floated out of the tip of Bernard's wand, and through the light, Bernard's gaze looked through his glasses for the flaws in the magic trap. The ordinary-looking gold-rimmed glasses emitted a faint blue light, scanning with precision, and Bernard's gaze constantly wandered between the corpses of several snakes.

Finally, a smile appeared in the corner of Bernard's eyes, and with a slight poke of his wand forward, an electric current slashed through the air, and the electric current flickered on several snake corpses, and a smell of burnt feathers came, making Bernard's brows furrow unconsciously.

Although Voldemort in his youth was also very clever, he didn't want to be as strong as he was in the future, and he was scheming, although this magic trap at the door showed strong concealment, but as long as it was a well-trained Auror, it could be solved very well, at most it was just a difference in the perfection of the clearance.

If the methods in the house were so simple, then Bernard would really wake up laughing in his dreams, but Dumbledore's withered arm kept reminding Bernard not to underestimate the enemy, it was Voldemort, and he had no capital to underestimate the enemy.

After a moment's pause, Bernard still took out a doll from his pocket, this doll looked very simple, that is, it was tied to a few short wooden sticks with unknown grass roots, but for some reason, this simple doll looked like a miniature version of Bernard, with an inexplicable verve attached to it.

Don't underestimate this humble doll, this is a voodoo doll that Bernard bought from a Haitian wizard through some secret channels, and it is a hole card for Bernard, the kind of hole card that specializes in dealing with curses.

As a bernard, who aspires to be a spell solver and has worked in Egypt for a while, this kind of hole card is really not too much, but unfortunately, like poison is rampant and antidotes are scarce, these items dedicated to solving curses can only be made by wizards who are proficient in curses.

And in the process of production, the user's hair, blood and even muscle tissue are also used, which is very testing for a person. You must know that dealing with these wizards who are proficient in curses requires 120,000 degrees of caution.

These wizards who are proficient in curses, among them, the wise ones can curse a person through dialogue, and it is even more terrifying like the iron nail that Bernard encountered before, through the bloodline, curse all the bloodline owners in this world, this kind of curse is something that many spell masters are unwilling to use.

And cursing through hair, etc., is much simpler, it can be said to be a necessary skill of a spell master, so not everyone dares to hand over their hair to the hands of a spell master to make such a thing, if Bernard did not find a trustworthy spell master through his mentor's relationship, and at the same time paid a lot of price, he would not dare to be such a voodoo doll.

But it was all worth it, and today, Bernard's safety depended on it for the most part, a thin straw rope was attached between Bernard's wrist and the voodoo doll, and with a strange murmur, the voodoo doll slowly stood up, and then began to walk forward.

Don't think that the voodoo doll is a small short leg and walks slowly, people are not slow at all, just like that, Bernard was already standing at the door of the room, glanced at the voodoo doll, Bernard wand tapped "Alajo Cave Open", and the door lock opened with a "click".
