I added points to my talents at Hogwarts

Chapter 172 There is a mole, the deal is cancelled!

Aurors rushed in, filling the narrow room to the brim.

They first sent the unconscious Lynn Bellok out smoothly, and then dug through the entire secret room seven or eight times with the momentum of digging three feet into the ground.

But in the end, they still couldn’t find the other missing little wizards.

Graves confirmed to Ives with a stern face:”Did you indeed see that the five missing little wizards were locked in this secret room?”

“That’s right.”Aves nodded affirmatively.

Seeing that he didn’t seem to be lying, the muscles on Graves’s face tightened visibly, and his brows knitted together, forming a deep wrinkle.

Although they came here with such a big fanfare, it was not He might not have been discovered, but why didn’t the kidnappers move Lynn Belloc away together, but left him here alone?

Could it be…

A flash of light flashed in his mind, and then he looked at the scene with suspicion. Everyone.

Graves first looked at Cone and Professor Flitwick who came to help, but soon he shook his head and ruled out this possibility.

After all, if it weren’t for the help of the four of them, the Auror They couldn’t even find Lynn.

Graves’s eyes narrowed to a slit. The team was not pure. There must be a mole among the people present. This mole notified the kidnappers, indicating that the Aurors had methods to locate them. to Linn’s location, so when the kidnappers moved, they only left Linn behind who would expose their whereabouts.

Seeing that he could not find any other useful information, Graves was not discouraged. The blood tracing magic was not the first time Sexually, they can probably use it a few more times until all the missing little wizards are found.

……

Josiah’s Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries, also known as the First Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries.

This is the first systematic magic hospital established in the United States. In order to commemorate Joshua Jackson, the first president of Congress who single-handedly promoted the establishment of the hospital, people often like to call it Josiah’s Hospital.

In the ward on the fourth floor, Graves is listening to the therapist’s report

“We have carefully checked and found that the patient was cast with a forgetting spell before he became comatose.” The therapist held a medical record sheet in his hand. He compared the data on the sheet and said quickly:”He may I’ve lost the memory of the past few days, but overall it’s not serious.”

“When will he wake up?”

“soon.”The therapist patted him on the shoulder, turned and left the ward.

While waiting for Lynn to wake up, Graves sent someone to notify the Bellocs who were still in the safe house. The only person left in Lynn’s ward was Graves, Ives and the others.

Graves opened his mouth and said with some embarrassment:”Thank you for your help, I’m afraid I will have to trouble you next. Ives and the others hurriedly shook their heads, indicating that this was what they should do.

Not long after, Mr. and Mrs. Belloc rushed in.

They saw Linn lying on the hospital bed at a glance. Mrs. Belloc threw herself on the bed. She held her head and hugged his upper body tightly with tears in her eyes, as if she had found the whole world she had lost.

Linn was awakened by her movements, he slowly opened his eyes, opened his mouth and called out:”Mom?””

Mrs. Belloc could no longer control her emotions and threw herself into Linn’s arms.

Linn subconsciously hugged his mother. He saw Mr. Belloc standing at the end of the bed with red eyes and shouted in confusion. :”Dad, where am I?”

Aves and the others quietly stepped back and left the ward as silently as possible. They did not want to disturb the reunion of the Belloc family.

In the corridor,

Elizabeth, who had been acting as a backdrop, asked:”Mr. Graves, are we What’s next?”

“Go to another safe house,” Graves said without hesitation,”The parents of another missing little wizard were placed there for our protection.

He looked at Ives and asked,”Evans, can you use blood tracing magic again?””

He was not sure whether the magic power in a young wizard who looked to be only twelve years old at most could support him to use this ancient magic again.

“No problem,” Ives readily agreed.

Graves was overjoyed, and he hurriedly led a few people to another safe house.

In order to prevent accidents, an anti-Apparition spell was also placed on Joshua Hospital..

When they took the elevator and hurried downstairs, no one noticed that in the ward, there was a black mist that looked like it was alive, and it poked its head out of Linn’s chest.

……

“Mr. and Mrs. Hals, as long as you provide a drop of blood and an item of little Ivan, we are absolutely sure that we can find him.”

Hearing Graves’ words, the Hals couple seemed to be injected with a powerful vitality.

Their eyes flashed with hope, and the expressions that had been tortured by pain and disappointment for a long time instantly collapsed and were replaced by excitement and joy. Tears of surprise.

They no longer care about the truth or falsehood of Graves’ words. Just like a drowning person, as long as there is a life-saving straw – even a straw as thin as a needle – they will reach out to grab it without hesitation.

After all, , their child Ivan Hals has been missing for six full days.

Mr. Hals immediately pricked his fingertip and dripped several drops of blood into the container. He was still afraid that it would not be enough, if Professor Flitwick had not been stopping him , he can cut his wrist and bleed.

Graves apologized, left the safe house, and set off to Hals’ house to get Ivan’s belongings.

At first, Ives and the others didn’t care. After all, as an adult wizard, in Phantom With the help of the Disembodiment Spell, the trip back and forth only took the blink of an eye.

But the time dragged on longer and longer, and Graves never came back, and they gradually became unable to sit still.

Could it be that the ghost in the Auror office had done something to him? ?

Several people thought with serious faces, if Graves could guess that there was a mole, how could they not guess it.

Cone and Professor Flitwick even suggested that one of them go to inquire about the situation, but they were immediately The other party rejected it. They were worried that the mastermind behind the scenes would directly attack Ivis and Elizabeth.

As everyone waited anxiously, it was not until an hour later that Graves returned to the safe house in disgrace. The director of the Auror Office, the senior Auror Luo, now dressed like a homeless man on the street, with gray on his face and coat, and his exquisite hair style was equally messy.

He walked in with an ugly face and cursed angrily:”Damn Purifier!”

After his explanation, everyone finally understood what happened.

The Hals’ house was burned down by a fire!

It was not an ordinary fire, but a severe fire.

The frantic purgeers went to the Hals’ house and several other houses. A fire was set off in the missing little wizard’s hou

se, burning everything to the ground.

Fortunately, the Aurors dealt with it in time, otherwise the entire town would have been burned by the powerful fire.

And the items burned by the fire , even the repair spell could not be used to repair it.

Before coming back, Graves went to other safe houses to inquire. As a result, the other four pairs of parents, like the Halses, did not bring anything else except the clothes they were wearing. Things.

When they were arranged to be protected in the safe house, the Aurors strictly prohibited them from carrying anything.

This meant that it was impossible for them to use blood tracing magic to find the little wizard below. Because One of the necessary conditions for casting blood tracing magic: an item belonging to the person searching for it.

Ives and the others will never be able to get it together.

As for why Graves is sure that the Purifier did it, it is because there is an item left at the scene. A poster depicting an anti-witchcraft symbol with a broken wand in both hands.

There is also a nursery rhyme written on the back:

“My mother, your mother, is going to catch witches. My mother, your mother, waved the little stick.

My mother, your mother, witches never cry. My mother, your mother, the witch must die.

Witch No. 1, drowned in the river. Witch No. 2, let her go to the gallows.

Witch No. 3, watch her burn to death. Witch number four, the whip whipped her around.”

This nursery rhyme was taught to several of her adopted children by the anti-witchcraft fanatic Mary Lou Barbourne during the Second Salem Tribunal. It is familiar to every American wizard who knows that period of history.

“Congress has raised the threat level of magical exposure to Level 3: High Alert.”Graves had a gloomy face,”The most important thing now is……”

Everyone is waiting for his next words

“Find out the inner ghost.”He said word by word

“That’s right.”Kone and the others nodded in agreement. All their actions have been sabotaged in advance. The evil spirits in the team must be eliminated. It will not work unless they are eliminated!

While everyone was discussing countermeasures, the Auror guarding the door hurried in.

“Director, the Bellocs have something urgent to do with you!”He said panicked

“What’s wrong?”Graves raised his head in confusion. Hasn’t Lynn Belloc been rescued? Has he been captured again?

The Auror in charge seemed to know what he was thinking. He shook his head and said,”Director, you still Go to Joshua Hospital quickly.”

Everyone rushed back to the hospital immediately.

In Linn’s ward, they saw Mr. and Mrs. Belloc, whose mood had improved. Now they were hugging each other with red eyes. Beside the hospital bed, Linn, who was wearing a blue and white striped hospital gown, His eyes were staring blankly at the wall, and his feet kept moving, as if he were jumping on a grid.

He murmured to himself:”My mother, your mother, is going to catch the witch. My mother, your mother, wave the stick……”

This strange scene made Elizabeth shudder

“What is he doing?”Professor Flitwick asked in a low voice.

Graves took out his wand and moved behind Linn as if facing a formidable enemy.

Linn seemed unaware of everything happening around him. He was just thinking to himself. That nursery rhyme:”Witch No. 1, drowned in the river. Witch number two, let her go to the gallows……”

A bright light came on in the room.

Linn was hit by the stun spell shot from the tip of Graves’ staff and fell backwards. The director of the Auror Office held him up with a single step.

He carried Linn back to the bed and signaled Professor Flitwick with his eyes to leave the room and talk.

In the corridor on the fourth floor,

Graves said solemnly:”I think we are in big trouble.”

He felt a very faint breath of black magic on Lin En’s body, which was almost imperceptible. If he hadn’t been experienced in dealing with dark magic, he might have thought it was an illusion.

While they were talking, the therapist came into the room and gave Lynn another full body check.

There are still no abnormalities in the checkable results.

Mr. Belloc closed his eyes, unable to accept the result.”If there was nothing abnormal, wouldn’t Lin have recognized us just now? Would he have just recited that nursery rhyme without caring about anything?”

No matter what he said, The therapist was still confident in his examination results,”I really didn’t find any problems.”

After saying that, he left. He was very busy at work, and there were several patients waiting for his examination.

Ives and the others stood outside the corridor and looked at each other, not knowing what to say to comfort the sad couple.

Graves sighed and said in a heavy tone:”No matter what, thank you for your help today. You will not be able to interfere with the next thing.”

Since the blood tracing magic is useless, he has no reason to talk to Ai anymore. Weiss and the others cooperated, and next, he had to find out the mole hidden in the Auror team.

This kind of internal matter is not suitable for outsiders to interfere.

Professor Flitwick and the others also expressed their understanding of this.

After sending the two young wizards home, Mr. Cone and Professor Flitwick left again. Things were getting more and more troublesome, and they wanted to do their part.

Avis sat in front of the fireplace and lit the extinguished fire again.

His right hand tapped on the table unconsciously, trying to sort out everything that happened today.

The first is the disappearance case. This morning they saw the missing information of Lynn Belloc in the newspaper, which means that he disappeared yesterday at the latest.

Then, he thought of blood tracing magic, so he, Professor Flitwick, and the other four went directly to the Auror office to find Tesla Graves and suggested that they could help.

Then, they went to the safe house where the Bellocs were, and cast blood tracing magic there.

During this period, Graves went out once to pick up Lynn’s belongings from Belloc’s house.

After the blood tracing magic was successful, Graves notified a large number of Aurors to go to the secret room together.

As a result, they only found Lynn Belloc in the secret room, but not the other four missing little wizards.

Ives thought about it carefully and found that the mole only had two days to notify his accomplices.

One was when Graves went out to get something, and the other was when they went to the secret room after the blood tracing magic was successful.

But the Purifiers were able to accurately attack the belongings of those young wizards, which meant that they knew the conditions for performing blood tracing magic, and Ives was sure that he had only told them, including the Bellocs and the Halses. of eight people.

So is it Graves or Cone…

Ives raised his eyes and looked at Elizabeth, who was directly opposite him, and asked casually:”Elizabeth, do you know anything about Tesla Graves?”
