Chapter 267: "Monsters Among Wizards"

Crouch's disappearance and Krum's knockout caused an uproar, but were quickly suppressed by the Ministry of Magic.

A special group of the Ministry of Magic, although this year's Minister of Magic, Fudge is very inclined to extreme purebloods, but he cares more about the prestige of the Ministry of Magic.

The disappearance of the Ministry of Magic officials is definitely a provocation to the Ministry of Magic, and it is also about the attack on a Nordic Triwizard Tournament warrior.

If there is a new report from Karkaroff, it will develop into an international incident, and the face of the Ministry of Magic will be disgraced.

"Find!" Fudge aggressively led the Aurors to Hogwarts, and before he could see Dumbledore, he took the Aurors to the Forbidden Forest.

Of course, he wasn't looking for it brainlessly.

"Go find Potter, and as for the other warrior, let him rest well, and send some people to comfort Karkaroff."

"Yes!" As Fudge marched with great force, the Aurors moved one after another.

And the little wizards were also attracted by Fudge's movements.

Unfortunately, until the afternoon, the Ministry of Magic searched the periphery of the Forbidden Forest and found no trace of Crouch.

】

Exhausted, Harry was brought back, and Fudge went to Dumbledore's office.

And Brie was called over.

"Sorry to bother you, Ode." Dumbledore smiled helplessly.

Fudge on the other side wiped the sweat from his head and said to Brie, "I hope Mr. Oude can help." ”

Fudge's tone was a little unwilling, and a little aggrieved.

But he didn't want to make a big deal out of it.

"Forbidden Forest Contract, we can't enter a place where the Forbidden Forest is too deep."

Although the Forbidden Forest is on the British border, it is like a collapsed secret place, partly exposed, partly hidden in a strange space.

The space there seems to have an owner, and even the Forbidden Forest Contract can't be fully detected, perhaps Brie's authority is not enough.

"I'm sure Mr. Crouch isn't in the Forbidden Forest anymore."

That's the answer Brie can give Fudge.

"Can you guarantee that Crouch isn't in the Forbidden Forest?" Fudge spoke in a slightly questioning tone.

"I'm not a prisoner, Secretary Fudge." Brie glanced at Fudge, then continued, "I can be sure that Crouch is not in the Forbidden Forest at this time, and swear by Merlin's magic. ”

Fudge snorted twice, and there was no way to take Brie, so he could only say, "Then record it and let the rest of the people go to the rest of Hogwarts to find it." ”

With that, Fudge turned to Dumbledore again.

"Albus ......"

"I think our Ministry of Magic has to send more Aurors, and the warriors of the Triwizard Tournament have been attacked, which is definitely a provocation to the British wizarding world!"

"It's going to be an international joke."

Fudge's reasoning made Dumbledore unable to find any good rebuttals, and he was not prepared to stop it.

"Alright then, I'll let Professor Moody assist you."

Dumbledore thought that Moody had been a veteran Auror before, and that he would have a lot of insight into dealing with these matters.

"Moody?" Fudge was a little reluctant to deal with Moody 1, after all, he was a petty official in the Ministry of Magic when Moody was famous.

Moody didn't look good at him.

It's a pity that Dumbledore has already given in, so he can't get an inch.

"Alright, I'll have the Magic Enforcement Division connect with Professor Moody." Fudge accentuated the word professor, reminding Dumbledore Moody that he was a professor and couldn't interfere too much in the affairs of the Ministry of Magic Aurors.

Dumbledore smiled and nodded.

Fudge snorted, his face turning kind.

"By the way, Dumbledore, I have one more thing I want to discuss with you......" Fudge glanced at Brie, meaning unclear.

"Then I'll take my leave, Professor Dumbledore."

Brie didn't have the heart to listen to Fudge and Dumbledore's argument, and immediately walked out.

At this moment, Brie saw Filch pacing hurriedly outside the headmaster's room.

"Mr. Filch, is there anything you can do?"

Filch had come to look for Brie, and when he saw Brie come out, he immediately greeted him, his wrinkled face was full of anxiety, and his speech was trembling, and he had lost his former fox and tiger power.

"Oh, you're finally out, thanks Merlin!"

"My Lady Loris is gone."

Lady Loris?

"It's lost?" Brie looked at Filch quizzically, and Filch nervously clenched his shabby robes.

"Yes, yesterday, I looked for a day today, but she is still nowhere to be found."

"I even feel its life passing away, leaving me!"

Filch was crying with an ugly look, and Brie couldn't bear to look at it.

"Okay, so how do you want me to help you?"

Brie touched his pocket, the emerging Nagini, and listened to Filch's words.

"Maps, I once got a map, and then it was stolen by the troublemakers, and of course, Dumbledore told me not to embarrass them."

"I know the map is in Potter's, but Potter won't help me."

Filch looked at Brie with an attitude of pleading with all his heart.

Lady Loris is all he has.

"No need to look for Harry."

Yesterday in the Forbidden Forest, Brie saw a map of the living spots that Moody had carried.

The map was supposed to be in Harry's hands, but after this grade, Harry could be said to have a lot of trust in Moody.

After all, Barty Jr.'s pretended Moody did have a talent for teaching Defence Against the Dark Arts lessons.

The knowledge he taught was very useful to the little wizard, the unforgivable spell, the curse that made people smell and discolor, what a reputation.

In summary, Harry trusted Moody, and it is likely that Moody was tricked into taking away the Living Point Map.

"I have a way to find Lady Loris, as long as it's still in the castle."

The Forbidden Forest Contract in Brie's hand is a mutual help contract between Hogwarts Castle, the Black Lagoon, and the Forbidden Forest, and Brie has certain law enforcement powers.

In addition to the fact that the Black Dragon, that is, Peeves, returned to the Black Lake, temporarily depriving Brie of some of their contractual sovereignty, both the Forbidden Forest and Hogwarts did not have a fully dominant master, so Brie also had a certain amount of authority.

The Forbidden Forest Pact quietly appeared in Brie's hand.

Soon, a little green light emanated from the contractor, and immediately after, a little green light jumped, like a dandelion, spread out of the corridor and disappeared into the wall.

This magic is similar to the Living Point Map, both of which communicate the consciousness of the Forbidden Forest Contract.

As for the live map, Brie guessed that it was a magic prop made with reference to the Forbidden Forest Contract, and he didn't know how to do it, so he actually made the Forbidden Forest Contract recognize it.

"Let's go." The deed gives instructions.

"Okay." A look of envy and jealousy flashed in Filch's eyes, but of course, there was not much malice.

His malice had already been given to himself when he knew he was a squib.

His evil to others is a thought that radiates from his body and mind.

"Card ......"

After a long walk, Brie pushed open a hallway door.

It's the basement, but Brie has found signs of someone coming.

"Greengrass, and Longbottom." Brie muttered under his breath, then looked at Filch, who was still behind.

Maybe he shouldn't know what happened after that.

"You wait for me here, I'll take a look, there's a magical defense down there."

Filch stopped abruptly, bowed humbly, and said earnestly with a crying voice, "I'm sorry to trouble you, please bring my Lady Loris out." ”

"I will." Brie walked into the dark underground staircase, and the magic traps around her failed, allowing Brie to pass through.

The ticking of water and the sound of his footsteps kept ringing in his ears, but soon he used his magic to hide his footsteps so as not to scare the two people below.

"Ace, why did you capture Lady Loris?"

"We can experiment with other creatures, Filch will cause trouble." Neville's voice was full of worry and pity.

"She's special." Astoria's cold voice answered Neville.

"You can leave, I don't need you to help me."

"No...... Ace, why are you pumping your own blood? Before Neville's words of refusal came out, he hurriedly dissuaded Astoria.

"Don't move, Longbottom, some blood won't kill me." Astoria said calmly.

But when Brie stepped insideβ€”

Astoria pressed her wand against Neville's neck, her eyes cold, but her eyes widened when she saw Brie enter the chamber, her eyes full of panic.

And Neville, who was already flustered, was directly stunned on the spot.

Brie looked at the layout of the chamber.

A row of shelves filled with transparent glass jars containing a lot of animal organs and some special plants.

In the middle was a huge table filled with potions facilities.

"Lady Loris?"

Lady Loris was lying on her back on the table, motionless, with bandages on her ankles and a bloody knife beside her.

Brie walked over and came into contact with the petrification magic on Lady Loris.

"Oddβ€”" Astoria suddenly let go of her wand and lowered her head to look at Brie.

"Odd, As, she's just ...... Just studying magic. Neville's eyes couldn't hide much.

"You don't know what she's doing and you're here to help her?" Brie looked at Neville.

"Meow...", Mrs. Loris, who had been petrified for a long time, woke up, her meow with a hint of fear.

It scurried to Brie's hand.

"Shhhh

"It's fine." Brie touched Nagini's head to soothe Lady Loris, who was huddled up on the table.

"I'm ......" Astoria lowered her head at a loss, and Neville on the side hurriedly said: "Ode, Ace must have her own reasons, she is not a bad person." ”

"I didn't say anything about her, Longbottom."

There was a green patent book on the table, and Ace saw Brie's gaze and immediately took it.

"Wait, Miss Greengrass."

The green book flew into Brie's hand.

Monsters Among The Witchers

Brie didn't have to look through it to know that it was a blood curser.

"Natural magic can help you." Brie reminded Astoria.

Astoria pursed her lips, she didn't show any momentum in front of the cloth.

"I don't have time." Astoria had tears in her eyes and strode out of the chamber.

"As!"

Neville hurriedly ran out.

"Meow..."

Brie touched Lady Loris, healing her wounds, and she recovered as the bandage fell.

"Go find Filch, he's worried."

Brie walked out of the chamber, and Lady Loris's followed.

"Meow meow!" Outside the secret room, Filch fell to the ground, and Mrs. Loris hurriedly trotted forward and rubbed Filch.

"It's all about forgetting." Brie glanced at Filch.

I don't know if Neville did it or Astoria.

"Filch is fine." Brie can understand the language of all things, and naturally he can tell all things his reminders.

Lady Loris stood bewildered, as if trying to wait for Filch to wake up.

"He'll wake up soon."

Brie shook her head and left.

The Oblivion Curse was crude, and I don't know how long it would take Filch to remember.

……

In the evening, at the Slytherin table, Astoria behaved very differently than usual.

Instead of sitting across from Brie, she chose to sit next to Draco and talk to Draco from time to time, though Draco didn't want to talk to her.

"Brie, are you full......"?

Draco looked at Brimer silent, polite, but very fast eating the green apple pie in front of him, and said helplessly, "Yes, what am I stupid about?" ”

Draco glanced at Astoria and said dissatisfied, "I don't think I'm that familiar with you." ”

Astoria didn't choose to be as silent as she used to, and responded to Draco coldly.

"I think your father told you about us."

Draco's eyes flickered, and he snorted.

"What are you kidding, do I have to be you?"

"It's you who have to be me, but I'm not a great good person, your heart is left to don't..."

"Keep your eyes on it, don't lean over."

"Brie, have you eaten enough, we have made an appointment to go to the corner tower tonight to practice nature magic."

"We can't do without you as a teacher."

Brie heard Draco's words and ate the green apple pie from the fork in one bite, then clicked on the table, and soon a freshly baked green apple pie appeared.

"What did you say, Draco?" Brie sliced the green apple pie with a knife and fork, not looking at Draco at all.

"Oh, well, I'll wait for you."

"It's unlucky." Draco grumbled quietly, then looked at Astoria's sister, Daphne.

"Daphne, don't you want to say something to your sister?" Draco's idea of Daphne taking Astoria was already written on his face.

Daphne and Pansy were eating dinner elegantly, and when Draco said this, they both looked at Astoria.

Pansy's eyes darkened, but Daphne pulled her back.

"I'm sorry, Draco, Astoria is now the princess of House Greengrass, and I don't dare do it." The jealousy on Daphne's face was undisguised, but she could only say decent things.

But it also gave Draco a message that the Greengrass family was investing in Astoria.

And according to Astoria's current goals, the output of this investment is likely to be his!
