Chapter 229: A Problem That Should Not Be Ignored

Chapter 229 A Problem That Should Not Be Ignored
After leaving the bar, Lin You did not continue to wander around, but turned back to his manor, fell on the bed and fell asleep.

The characters and plots of the six stories were intertwined, and it was impossible to deduce the accurate subsequent plot - at least not something an online writer could do. So he was too lazy to figure it out.

The only thing he had to pay attention to now was that while he was intervening in the situation as the head of the Forester family and the magic consultant of the British royal family, he could not let the will of the writer interfere with the development of the incident. He could do what Earl Goff could do, but he could not do what only the writer could do.

For example, after dawn, we will go to Oxfordshire to visit the O'Connor family again; on the one hand, to inquire about the reason for the leak of "The Black Book of the Dead", and on the other hand, to give reminders.

"The news about the Black Book of the Dead has been leaked. It is very likely that someone will come to ask you about the whereabouts of the book. Remember, do not resist and tell the truth." Lin You repeatedly reminded, "Tell everyone who comes to inquire that you handed the book to the official in charge of magical affairs of the Muggle government - the Forresters. But please be sure to conceal the fact that I am traveling through time."

"Will it be dangerous for you?" Alex O'Connor asked worriedly.

"I am more worried that you will be in danger. Those curious guys cannot be dealt with by guns or spells. No matter what the situation is, your first priority must be to protect your own safety. It is a reasonable explanation to hand over the scriptures to my family for safekeeping. After all, you were unable to go to Hogwarts due to some unknown reasons, so you are not considered members of the wizarding world."

"Why did the news leak out? It's been peaceful for decades." Evelyn was older and could only sit like her husband, but she couldn't help but mutter. Her granddaughter suddenly turned pale.

"It might be because of me." Little Evelyn said, "I once wanted to use the Black Book of the Dead to revive my classmates. At that time... when I was anxious, I leaked some information and used the example of my grandmother's resurrection to prove that the book must be useful."

"It should be almost certain; but you don't have to blame yourself, Ms. O'Connor. No secret can be kept forever." Lin You didn't take it seriously at all. After all, with his family status and his own connections and strength, he was confident that he could withstand the pressure brought by the news leak.

Does Dumbledore dare to steal the Black Book of the Dead, or can Constantine break into Forrester Manor?

After coordinating the testimony with the O'Connor family, Lin You received a very unexpected piece of news when he was leaving: Helena Shaw secretly met with a mysterious person, and then suddenly disappeared from the hotel where she was staying.

This news was sent by the "Recorder" organization through internal channels.

Ever since meeting Helena, Count Goff has used his family's power to monitor her around the clock; and the "recorders" who are usually responsible for monitoring non-human intelligent creatures are naturally the most suitable for this task.

Even werewolves, vampires and other monsters can be kept under control, let alone ordinary people?
Lin You's original intention was only to protect Helena's safety and prevent the "Saint" from having the opportunity to get close to or hurt her before the investigation results were out; who would have thought that something would go wrong now.

In the room where Helena once lived, the "Recorders" members tremblingly told everything they knew; although the person they were reporting to was just a child, no one dared to look down on him.

"This morning, someone entered Ms. Xiao's room and talked to her. We did not find any signs of anyone entering or leaving the room. The conversation took place directly in the room. Whoever came did not enter the room in a normal way."

"They talked for about ten minutes, and then there was no sound in the room. We immediately realized that something was wrong, and when we entered Ms. Xiao's room, we found that Ms. Xiao had disappeared, and even her luggage was gone."

Lin You asked: "Don't you have monitoring equipment? Didn't you hear anything, and didn't you record anything?"

Although most of the "recorders" are proficient in magic, they are active in Muggle society, so they certainly have no shortage of Muggle spy equipment. "That's exactly what made us suspicious. When people were talking in the room, all the monitoring equipment was interfered with, and the sound became noisy and chaotic, and the recorded sound was the same."

Lin You was skeptical, so he turned on the monitoring device and listened for a while. His eardrums were almost blown apart by the chaotic and harsh electric current sounds. In the ten-minute recording, he could barely distinguish no more than ten words, which was worthless.

"Send it back for audio processing. Don't worry about the rest, just wait for my next instructions." Lin You left a vague order and turned around to find Dumbledore.

Coming to Hogsmeade again, this time Earl Goff did not wait in the tavern, but went to visit Hogwarts.

As we approached the castle, we saw owls flying in and out in groups of three or four. It seemed that the school was very busy with external communications on this Monday. Lin You gave his name, and soon a red-haired student union cadre was sent to lead him into the castle.

From the way this student treated the other children in a strict and serious manner, and from the fact that he would emphasize to the naughty or disobedient students every once in a while along the way that "I am the prefect", Lin You roughly guessed that this person should be called Percy Weasley.

However, apart from scolding a few naughty students and deducting two or three marks, there were no other accidents on the way from the school gate to the principal's office; Lin You also did not see any famous characters, such as other "Weasleys" who also had red hair.

After using the password of a candy name to open the office door and reporting in, Percy's task was completed; he restrained the curiosity common among young people very well, and after inviting Lin You to enter on his own, he left without looking back.

"This is so unlike 'Weasley'. His father is more passionate than him. He is in his forties or fifties and can still fight with people with his fists in public." Lin You muttered to the few plots he remembered, then slowly walked up the stairs leading to the office.

In the office, Dumbledore sat at the desk with his head buried in piles of letters until Lin You's footsteps stopped in front of the desk, and then he raised his head.

"I'm sorry, Bryce; I didn't expect you to come." The principal invited the guest to sit down.

"I didn't expect you to be so busy. As the headmaster, you have so much work to do, and you are so dedicated to your duties... There have always been rumors that Professor McGonagall is the real headmaster of Hogwarts - it seems that this is just a rumor." Lin You sat down across the table and deliberately teased.

Dumbledore's face was not embarrassed at all, but there was a bit of helplessness and worry: "Something happened in the school recently, which made the Ministry of Magic and parents worried, so there are more letters. Forget it, let's not talk about this; you came to see me specially, there must be something important?"

"Yes, Professor. I realize that we have overlooked a very crucial issue before."

"what is the problem?"

"Who on earth asked Ms. Helena Shaw to look for the Spear of Longinus?"
