The Evil God of Hogwarts

Chapter 172 A big gamble

After bidding farewell to Hermione, Xing Ze found Ellie, who had just finished class and planned to return to the office.

Of course, Barrow Foley, the flower protector, was also there. Obviously, people will forget pain. On this point, Xing Ze has never been disappointed.

"We haven't finished our last account yet, Oriental." Foley threatened fiercely, "If I were you, I would turn around and go back."

"Relax, big man." Xing Ze glanced at the wand in Foley's hand, and he estimated the safest way to take action, "I'm not here to cause trouble. To be precise, Miss Shafik asked me to do it."

"Hey, are you still awake?"

"Okay, Mr. Foley." After dealing with the last student, Ellie interjected, "You two, don't act like children. I asked him to come here."

"But...but...Ellie."

"You still have classes, Mr. Foley, and call me Miss Shafik. This is Hogwarts, not Rat Alley or Knockturn Alley. I don't need a bodyguard following me all day long."

"But your father..."

"I will talk to my father. But now, dear sir, I have something important to tell Xing Ze. So, give us some private time."

Barrow glanced at Ellie reluctantly, then turned to glare at Xing Ze and said: "You save a life, Oriental. But don't think that's the end of it, I challenge you to a duel."

"This Sunday, in the playground of the Quad. I want the whole school to know that you are nothing but a wretch.

"Of course, if you are scared, I can let you go, provided that you admit in front of all the teachers and students in the school that you attacked me last time."

Ellie rolled her eyes, "Gentlemen, you must have forgotten that dueling is prohibited in school, right?"

"Don't worry, Miss." Foley said confidently, "I have applied to the board of directors, and I guarantee they will agree. So what's your answer, Oriental?"

Xing Ze spread his hands and said: "As long as the board of directors agrees, I have no objection."

Foley showed a satisfied smile, laid his hands and said, "Very good, very good, Oriental, I'm looking forward to this Sunday."

After he left, the eldest lady glared at Xing Ze and said, "Really? Xing Ze, a duel? You know that guy is no match for you at all."

"He invited me so enthusiastically, I couldn't refuse. I have always been a soft-hearted person."

Ellie raised her middle finger and said, "At least give him some face. After all, he is the Welfare family behind him. There is no need to offend a pure-blood family at this juncture."

"My dear lady, you may have made a mistake." Xing Ze smiled bitterly, "They are unwilling to let me go, and I have had enough of this inexplicable discrimination and provocation."

"Okay, okay, this is your freedom." Ellie half-raised her hands in surrender, "Let's talk about Ravenska Village. I think that's what you came here for.

"But before you tell me the truth, let me guess. You asked John to secretly leak some information to R, right? Regarding the direction we are pursuing..."

Ai Li looked at Xing Ze, she was waiting for confirmation.

"Go on, miss, I'm listening."

"John was smart enough to let the Mendez family's situation slip, whether intentionally or accidentally.

"In short, R was fooled and they launched an investigation into the Mendez family. Only they can launch an investigation into an ancient family. It's like hunting. You put down the bait and then hide in the dark and wait for the prey to come."

The eldest lady shook her head dissatisfied, "No, that's not the case. You put down the prey and waited for a capable hunter to come and deal with it. After he kills the prey, you kill him again."

"Look, it's like I said before." Xing Ze laughed, "I don't need to tell you the plan at all, you can definitely guess it."

"Don't be happy so early, Xing Ze." Ai Li reminded with a serious face, "This is a big gamble. As long as the prey and the hunter survive, you, the fisherman, will have to pay the price."

"I've always had good luck. Besides, what I need is someone to put pressure on Ravenska Village."

The eldest lady quickly understood, "You want to force the snake out of the cave?"

"Yes, given that we have done a lot of things to alert others..."

Under the gaze of the eldest lady, Xing Ze changed his words: "Well, the main reason is that I did a lot of things to alert others. So, why not make the situation of stagnant water more chaotic."

"Because chaos will lead to mistakes in decision-making." Ellie took over. "There will always be cultists who can't hold back."

"Yes, this is the truth. There will be a wizard parade in Ravenska Village in the afternoon. At the same time, a press conference will be held at the town hall. During the press conference, Barty Crow, Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, Qi will explain some things."

"Do you think those cultists will?" Ellie frowned.

"If it were me, I would."

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Waiting for news from Reko, I asked him and Edwin to keep an eye on Manel's son, Luke. If he wants to save his father, he will definitely find those people hiding in the shadows.

"We also need a map of the march's route and how long they will stay at each location, as well as Barty Crouch's schedule and security. John is already working on both of those.

"What we both need to do is go to a few places before the parade starts. Two days ago, I finally finished sorting out the disappearance case in Ravenska Village. Come on, give me a high five."

Xing Ze raised his right hand, but was ruthlessly put aside. He could only retract his hand and said, "Okay, no high-fives. I selected a few noteworthy points based on the conditions."

"You want to take a look?" Ellie nodded, "I can leave the afternoon class to Quirrell."

"That would be perfect." Xing Ze took out a map of the town and pointed to a place full of black dots, "I asked Reko to find out. This place is a magic props store.

"Colin, the boy who saw the shadow on the night of September 1st, disappeared around here."

Ellie said with some uncertainty: "Colin, okay. Are you sure it is a good idea to go to Ravenska Village now?"

"I think those cultists are discussing what to do with their evangelists and they shouldn't care too much about us."

"I hope so, Xing Ze." Ai Li pouted, "I don't want to be chased by a group of lunatics."

"In order to prevent this situation, we need a carriage." Xing Ze smiled brightly, "Also, dear lady, have you brought any money? I know a very good magic props store in Knockturn Alley. "
