The Evil God of Hogwarts

The trip to the Forbidden Forest did not bring him any substantive information. Instead, it caused the Ministry of Magic to once again strengthen its surveillance on him.

Of course, in addition to the Ministry of Magic, he was also wary of Ali Shafik's private investigation.

All in all, after returning from the Forbidden Forest, his life could be described as "colorful". Fortunately, there was some good news from Dumbledore.

The Ministry of Magic discovered the identity of the werewolf - Randolph Tomaszewski. Thugs, murderers, dark wizards...

Just about any crime you can think of could apply to him, a notorious fugitive from Belarus who made his fortune through human trafficking.

In 1983, during a vigorous crackdown and crackdown by local Aurors, Randolph Tomaszewski mysteriously disappeared.

There were rumors that he fled to East Asia, and some said that he fled to the United States. But who would have thought that this former crime boss would be hiding in the United Kingdom, and even disguised himself as a country tourist on an express train.

Things are starting to become clearer, but not to the point where the truth is revealed. The woman who rode the train with him is still missing.

There has been no news from Edwin and Reko since they parted ways in the Forbidden Forest. Xing Ze is not worried that they will not show up. After all, they have the same goal. Sooner or later, they will meet him again.

Another good news is that the Mirror of Erised has been transported from Gringotts to Hogwarts, and Dumbledore has temporarily installed it in an abandoned classroom.

Activate the magic mirror, put the magic stone in, and add the necessary spells. This is a big project, and even Dumbledore has to spend a lot of time.

What's more, there are so many places that need him, including the Order of the Phoenix, Hogwarts, the Ministry of Magic, the School Council, etc. Xing Ze always felt that it was unscientific for the old wizard to have long gray hair.

Think of Weber, even hair-restoring potions couldn't restore his scalp to glory.

Fortunately, Nicoléme's magic stone is still safely underground in the restricted area.

As for Quirrell, Dumbledore is still saying the same thing. He didn't want to investigate the Hogwarts lecturer without solid evidence.

Xing Ze believed that Snape would be willing to wait more than once to ask Dumbledore to investigate Quirrell. It can only be said that everyone has their own principles and bottom lines that they adhere to.

Or maybe Dumbledore had already started investigating, but just didn't tell him clearly. Given his past experience, this is not impossible.

The situation changed when Bluebeak did not return a warning for three or four days before the school Quidditch match, in late November, which meant that the Ministry of Magic had withdrawn the people monitoring him.

This is a good sign. Since the winery incident, Xing Ze has wasted too much time and the investigation has stalled. The only thing he can do now is to study the "Key to the Door".

…

Although the plague has been effectively controlled, the Ministry of Magic still wants Hogwarts to inspect the audience one by one.

This tedious task fell to several idle teachers, such as the Muggle Studies teacher, the Divination teacher, the Rune teacher, etc.

In Scotland in November, the weather had turned cold. On the day of the Quidditch match, Xing Ze and Ben stood at the door, each holding an entry checklist to check people.

Although it is only an internal competition within Hogwarts, it also attracts many wizards from outside the school to watch. Of course, vendors from all over the world will not let go of such a good opportunity to make money.

They have set up their own stalls and tents outside the venue. The game will only last until the afternoon, but the colorful activities outside the venue will continue until midnight.

When everyone entered the room, Ben ran to Xing Ze and complained: "It's so boring. I can't believe the Ministry of Magic would make such a request."

"It's always right to be careful." Xing Ze comforted, "After all, in addition to the teachers and students of our school, there are also many outside wizards. Who knows if there are Death Eaters among them."

"Death Eaters?" Ben shrank, "Don't be ridiculous, Xing Ze, no matter how bold those Death Eaters are, they won't come here. Dumbledore is here."

Yes, yes, they don't have the guts to come here. Xing Ze thought to himself, but it’s not them I’m worried about, but another group of lunatics.

He looked down at the audience list, and Jamie Avery's name was clearly listed.

"Shall we go in too, Xing Ze?" Ben said, "The game is about to start. I bet on Hufflepuff. They have a high demand for winning the championship this year."

"No, I want to go to the market and have something to eat. I haven't even had a sip of hot water since I was so busy in the morning."

"Okay, then remember to bring me a bottle of beer. I didn't drink anything either."

"Okay." Xing Ze responded, and then walked towards the market outside.

Jamie Avery did not enter the game venue. He might be wandering around the market. Xing Ze wanted to try his luck.

After being in this world for so long, he had only seen members of the Everly family in the photos in "The Key to the Door".

The popularity of the market has not diminished at all due to the entrance of the audience, or it is more lively than before.

Those stalls and tents formed a larger circle around the arena. Xing Ze estimated that there must be at least a hundred stalls here.

In addition to the merchants in Hogsmeade, he also saw merchants from Diagon Alley, and there were also many from Glastonbury.

"Why does it feel like going to a fair in the countryside?" He muttered and began to walk slowly on the reserved road that was not spacious.

Xing Ze sold a croissant at a bread stall. The stall owner tried his best to guarantee that these breads were all handmade by him without using any magic at all. For this reason, he accepted a croissant from Xing Ze, and an ordinary croissant only cost ten kats.

After browsing a quarter of the stalls, he finished his piece of croissant, and then found a simple tent with a divination sign next to a stall selling perfume.

Driven by curiosity, Xing Ze opened the curtain of the tent and looked inside. The owner cast a traceless stretching spell on the tent, and the space inside was quite spacious.

"Come in, distinguished guest, come in and take a look." A female voice came from inside.

Xing Ze smiled. He just came to satisfy his curiosity and see if Jamie Avery was inside.

"Next time, ma'am," he said, and just as he was about to pull away, the voice sounded again.

"You are haunted by nightmares. Something is bothering you. Come on, sir, I can help you unravel the doubts in your mind."

"How much is it?"

The woman behind the bead curtain was obviously stunned, and then reported a number: "Two Kexi."

"Aha, with two Kexi, I can buy a lot of sleeping potions, which can also keep me away from nightmares."

Although he said that, Xing Ze still walked in because the voice coming from inside was very familiar.

He opened the beaded curtain and saw clearly the person inside, who was the divination teacher Sybill Trelawney.
