The Evil God of Hogwarts

"The more interesting thing is yet to come." Ellie whispered. "On a certain day, Reko suddenly returned to England. If he hadn't gone to the Ministry of Magic, no one would have known that he was back."

Xing Ze stopped and asked, "He went to the Ministry of Magic?"

"Yes, there was a big fuss there."

"for what?"

"I don't know, he met the Minister of Magic directly as a member of the Albin family. You also know that the former Minister Millicent Barnold is almost in seclusion, and even if I go to ask in person, she probably won't. can speak.

"While there, he wrote to his sister Olivia again. This time, he said that he would go to the Severn Valley and that if something happened, Olivia would be able to inherit all his works.

"As we all know, he was fine and met Edwin von Winkler in the Severn Valley. My people investigated it in a pub there."

Ellie stopped talking because they were almost at the principal's office.

"I think our conversation has to stop here," she said. "Let's talk some other time."

Xing Ze put away his pen and notebook, nodded and replied, "What happens later?"

"No, I have to present the Quidditch trophy. Not at night either, the big family dance. Of course, if you really can't wait, I can give you an invitation ticket."

Xing Ze thought about it and finally rejected the proposal. Now he only needs to make sure that Ali Shafiq is on his side. As for why she changed, it is actually not that important.

What's more, if he, a person with no status, rashly attends this kind of family dance, I'm afraid it will only cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

…

The conversation with Dumbledore went on for a long time, of course, mainly between him and Ellie.

The old wizard wanted Xing Ze to join him in investigating the mysterious man's whereabouts, but Xing Ze politely refused.

There is no need to investigate at all, he is right under your nose. Xing Ze still insists on his theory - Quirrell is a Death Eater.

This time Ellie agreed with him, but Dumbledore still had no intention of tracking down Quirrell.

Walking out of the principal's office, Xing Ze thought about why Dumbledore was like this. If his opinion alone wasn't enough to impress him before, now with Ally's approval, he should agree.

Why? Why doesn't he believe it?

This question followed Xing Ze until the end of November. During this period, he was unable to meet Ali Shafiq again. The latter seemed to be deliberately avoiding him. Except for daily teaching, Ellie rarely stayed at school.

Of course, much of the credit goes to Barrow Foley, the self-styled flower protector who follows Ellie almost every free moment.

Meanwhile, his investigation ran into trouble. He secretly went to the Oil Gang's stronghold in Knockturn Alley and also went to the winery, but found nothing.

Fortunately, Ali Shafik secretly sent him a letter, which was delivered to Xing Ze through Cedric.

In the letter, Ellie stated that she had been warned by her family not to interfere in the investigation of Reko and Edwin, and to try not to meet with Xing Ze as much as possible.

It was clear that her investigation touched upon something that could not be dug too deeply. In fact, you can understand it if you think about it carefully. Ali Shafiq didn’t know about dreams, or she didn’t know much.

If she continues to investigate, she will inevitably find something that the Key Hall has been hiding. Even if it is just the tip of the iceberg, that is not allowed.

This also explains why the eldest lady has been acting strangely recently. She must be having a hard time these days as well.

The warning came not so much from the House of Shafiq as from the Hall of Keys. Because of this, Xing Ze was not worried about Aili's private investigation before.

As a member of the Key Hall, he is not only worried about internal doubts and investigations. Regarding the outside world, he is still very relieved.

After all, even an organization as large and powerful as the church has only managed to win over low-level people like Maxim over so many years.

The letter also mentioned the information that the eldest lady had investigated. Although most of it had been confiscated by the family, she still kept some and would sort it out and hand it over to Xing Ze through Cedric in the near future.

In any case, he had too few clues at his disposal to tie more things together.

Therefore, Xing Ze changed the direction of his investigation. He no longer dwelled on the obvious clues, but started from various ancient legends.

For this reason, he spent all his free time in the restricted book section of the Hogwarts library, and asked Cedric to help him find out many rumors about the Glenling Ice Demon from the Cliona Library.

In addition, daily study of "The Key to the Door" has become his daily routine. This book records a lot of knowledge about dreams, but there is very little information directly written in English.

Latin and runes occupy a large part, and other documents include Sanskrit, Nachtean, Carthaginian, Greek, etc.

Even though those documents have annotations from many members, it is still very difficult to read, not to mention that most of the documents and information inside are broken, incomplete and obscure.

Therefore, he did not have high hopes for "Key to the Door". He was waiting for a turning point.

If the turning point does not come, he will have no choice but to seek help from the church, although he understands that every request to the church will cost him double the price in the future.

Fortunately, he didn't have to wait too long for this turn of events.

On this day, as usual, he was about to go to the cafeteria to eat after class, but was intercepted by Harry, Hermione and Ron.

"Please wait, Mr. Xingze." Harry said, "Please give us some time. We have something important to tell you."

"Let's talk as we walk, my stomach is already protesting." Xing Ze smiled.

"Me too, we can continue the conversation in the cafeteria." Ron agreed.

Hermione rolled her eyes, "Yeah, so everyone knows."

"Then find a secluded corner." Ron said not to be outdone, "What do you think, Harry?"

"Okay, we can talk on the way to the cafeteria. Others will only think of you as students who solve problems after a few classes."

"I agree," Hermione agreed, and the other two nodded.

On the way to the canteen, the three little guys expressed their thoughts to Snape and Nico Flamel.

"You can't slander Snape just because he is a mean person." Xing Ze advised, "Also, how do you know about Nico Flamel?"

Xing Ze couldn’t remember who told Harry about Nico Flamel in the original novel.

"It's Hagrid," Ron quickly replied, "He said the thing hidden in the restricted area is Dumbledore, ah——"

Before he could finish his words, Hermione kicked him hard.

Ah, Hagrid. Xing Ze nodded thoughtfully, Hagrid was so tight-lipped, I should have guessed it.
