Chapter 292: The Giant Pit
At night, in the snow-shrouded Smith Manor, the windows of the study were still lit. Gerber Smith was sitting at his desk, flipping through the envelope he had received a while ago.
On the cabinet next to the desk, there are countless glass bottles, filled with silvery fragments of memory.
Suddenly, there was a soft knock on the door of the study.
The house-elf pushed the door in, bowed to the wizard at the desk, and said, "Master, in five minutes, the visitor will arrive." ”
The entire manor was well hidden, and no one in the Smith family knew about the manor's existence, let alone its location, except for a few important people.
"I see. Gerber Smith drank the cold tea, reached out to stand up on the table, and walked slowly towards the hall of the manor.
As soon as he arrived in the hall, he saw a green flame suddenly turn under the marble fireplace, and Bud Broad bent down and walked out of the fireplace.
"What's going on, using the Inside Floo Network?" asked Gerber Smith, looking at Bud Broad.
Today, Floo is controlled by the Ministry of Magic's Floo Network Administration, and it will be difficult to hide from the Ministry of Magic when using Floo Net, but there are still some places that are still not monitored by the local Floo Network, such as the internal Hogwarts Network of Floo Networks, such as the fireplace in the secret manor of Gerber Smith.
"Haven't the others arrived yet?" said Bard Broad, dusting off the ashes from his black robes, looking left and right.
"No, you're the first. Gerber Smith vaguely guessed that there wouldn't be much reason for them to come together, and just then the fire broke out again in the fireplace.
"Good evening. ”
Tiberus Ogden stepped out of the fireplace and greeted the two men.
Mogg McDoug didn't keep them waiting long, and soon came out of the fireplace.
"Now that everyone is here, let's talk about something important. Gerber Smith led them to a cozy room somewhere on the manor, where the house-elf respectfully offered refreshments, and then quickly turned away.
"On the question of Rowanna Smith. Bud Broad looked at Gerber Smith and frowned and asked, "How much does he know?"
The other three all frowned, they could be sure that the four people present would never reveal their affairs to anyone else, and none of Wildsmith would reveal their secrets to anyone else.
Bud Broad placed a letter on the table, picked up his wand and tapped it, and the envelope unfolded automatically and began to read its contents. If Albert were here, he would have found that he had written this letter to Professor Broad, stating that he had successfully mastered the advanced use of ancient magic scripts, along with details of his entry into the Ravenclaw vault. And, of course, Rowanna Smith's speculation. ”
"Rowanna certainly doesn't know much, and it is estimated that he can only speculate from the few documents of the Smith family. "He's not stupid, he's certainly guessed something, and it's not surprising that he went into the Ravenclaw Chamber and knew the surname Wildsmith. And, I suspect Albert Anderson and Isobel McDoug must have known some of that. ”
"The question now is, what does Rowanna Smith want to do?" Bard Broder reminded with a frown, "don't forget, he's been obsessed with this, don't forget about Breel." ”
Breel McDoug is the father of Isobel and Katrina, and when Blair was still very young, he had a magical experiment and died inexplicably.
Breel, as a former alternate, is still part of their loose circle, although he has been eliminated. At that time, they wondered whether Breel's death was related to Rowanna.
All four were silent!
They all knew why Bard Broad had summoned them, the two qualified candidates were at Hogwarts, and if Rowanna Smith went crazy and killed them all, the new Wildsmith heir would be finished.
Selecting candidates is usually very secretive, but Rowanna was once a candidate and had the heart to track it down, so it was not difficult to find some clues.
Although the probability of him going crazy is very small, it has to attract the attention of several people.
No way, who made Rowanna Smith too obsessed with this matter, some of his personalities are too bad, which is the main reason why Rowanna was not chosen.
"In a few months, Rowanna should be leaving Hogwarts on his own initiative, and I'll be keeping an eye on them for the rest of the year. Mog McDoug took the initiative.
"If something bad happens, I'll fix it. Gerber Smith's tone was calm, even if Rowanna Smith was his grandson, he couldn't cross the line.
For Wildsmith, only wizards who also inherit this surname can be considered real relatives.
"The Bronze Book, let Albert put it back when Rowanna leaves Hogwarts. Tiberus Ogden began.
The meeting didn't last long before they dispersed.
Gerber Smith stood by the window, looking out at the snow and muttering, "What do you want to do, Rowanna?"
......
Unbeknownst to Albert in the Room of Need, with his earbuds and earmuffs, he is dealing with the mandrake roots, ready to complete the Banshee's Howl once and for all.
It had been stuffed in salt for a long time and had completely changed its appearance.
The roots of the mandrake dehydrated with salt have become unusually hideous, and if you have to describe it, it is a really miserable death.
Albert poked the dehydrated mandrake root with an honesty detector, and sure enough, there was a strong reaction, and there was no doubt that this thing would not be blind, and it had really become a black magic prop.
The rat next to him had fallen into a coma when the mandrake root came out of the salt, and it was unknown if it was dead.
Albert stuffed the mandrake roots into a bog digging pin bag, which had been expanded by the Traceless Stretching Charm, and then placed it in a pre-prepared silver container, and everything went well.
It wasn't until the Banshee's Howl was completely turned off that Albert slowly took off the earmuffs and unplugged the earbuds, making sure that the container he had made could effectively contain it, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
If you fail, you will probably fall into a coma. When his roommate finds out that he hasn't returned, he will come to the room to find him according to his request. Albert even wrote on parchment steps on what to do if he fell unconscious.
However, the latter trick was no longer useful, and was thrown into the fireplace by Albert and burned
Albert poked the Banshee's howl with the Honesty Detector, but the stab didn't react at all, and I don't know if it was because of too much outer separation.
Of course, Banshee's Howl is not a qualified dark magic item in nature, so it is natural that the panel skill will not appear as a skill.
Albert was quite satisfied with the thing, though, and just had to find a chance to test its power, and he remembered that Fred and George seemed to be eager to try it, so he lent it to them to play first.
