Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

Another week had passed since the Changfeng Conference.

During this time, the warehouse prison continued to operate smoothly. Although the conflicts between the commoner wizards and Muggles and the patrol team were still brewing, Moody's iron-fisted management prevented any major incidents.

Meanwhile, Nathan and Bob were still discussing their escape plan every day but hadn't made up their minds, only continuing to prepare.

In any case, according to Moody, the two's wandless magic level had improved by leaps and bounds, perhaps because their current desperate situation had stimulated their potential.

However, these two guys were still very cautious about officially starting the prison break, even hesitant.

This indecisive behavior made Moody unable to help but burst into curses at every meeting, scolding the two as cowards. They had practically opened the door for them, but these two idiots just wouldn't run.

But Anduin and the others knew that such things couldn't be rushed. In Nathan and Bob's eyes, they were doing something that could cost them their lives, so being careful was only natural.

However, while the situation in the prison hadn't made much progress, Andrei had gained a lot.

After Andrei's public relations efforts, the Schmidt family had reached a consensus with him. What these wizarding families valued most was honor and dignity, and being deceived was more hateful than being killed.

Therefore, the head of the Schmidt family had agreed to cooperate with Andrei in subsequent actions, but with one condition: 'Phoenix'!

Only by completely eliminating or capturing Phoenix, the culprit who had harmed the Schmidt family, would they be willing to trust Andrei unreservedly.

In response, Anduin had Andrei agree to their request, but now was not the time. Phoenix had not been staying in Germany recently, and it would be unwise to run to France to attack her.

But Anduin did not waste this opportunity. While Phoenix was not in Germany, he risked sneaking into Phoenix's base in Germany and installed a large number of monitoring devices inside.

As soon as she reappeared, Anduin would let her know what it meant to be ambushed from all sides.

As for the Silver Spear side, thanks to the locator Anduin had secretly hidden, coupled with the monitoring deployed inside the headquarters and Aselia's inside help, he had a good grasp of the club's recent movements.

What was certain now was that Gold Flyer and Peter were indeed the same person. Whenever Gold Flyer took action, he would put on another set of Silver Spear uniform and leave the Ministry of Magic.

But Peter still stayed in the Ministry of Magic, as if he had suddenly split into two.

During this time, Gold Flyer organized a number of Short Spears, led by the Transfiguration Lizard, to conduct a secret investigation within Germany.

They screened various official magical animal parks, wizarding gathering areas, and black markets within the country, but those stolen magical animals and personnel seemed to have evaporated into thin air. They couldn't find any clues.

No one had purchased large quantities of food, and no one had seen or heard of large-scale transportation of magical animals.

They also investigated the families of those staff members. The only discovery was in Clermont's residence, where they found a basement that had been emptied.

After obtaining this clue, Gold Flyer seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and immediately followed Clermont's line to investigate.

Soon, Gold Flyer discovered the fireplace with the severed Floo Network in Clermont's black market secret chamber.

When all the evidence pointed to Clermont, proving that he was the mole, Gold Flyer's heart was somewhat broken. He had known the other party since he was young and had followed him for so many years, but now he had suddenly become a traitor, which he really couldn't understand.

As for whether Clermont's betrayal would expose Peter's secrets, Gold Flyer wasn't particularly afraid, because Clermont's brain had long been sealed with the highest-intensity contract and Secret-Keeping Charm.

As long as Clermont realized that the person he was facing was not from the Silver Spear, even if he subconsciously determined it, he would not be able to reveal the secrets of the club and Gold Flyer.

And in Gold Flyer's multiple conversations with the Fire Snake when returning to headquarters, Anduin learned that he had also launched probes and investigations into Andrei and others.

He had even found out that Andrei had disappeared with more than a dozen Aurors for a few days, which was not long before Gold Flyer and others discovered that the park was empty.

This did arouse the suspicion of Gold Flyer and the Fire Snake, but Andrei and these Aurors had very legitimate reasons, and they only left for three days.

Was it possible for so few people to empty three breeding parks in just three days? Not to mention Gold Flyer, no other wizard would believe it, so Andrei's movements could only be said to have aroused his suspicion, but Gold Flyer did not regard him as the primary suspect.

And in order to investigate, the usually low-key Silver Spears had been frequently appearing in various wizarding gathering places during this period, which had already attracted the attention of many people and had even made the newspapers. Andrei even suggested launching an investigation and arrest operation, but Peter had rejected them with various reasons.

Although Gold Flyer appeared very calm every time he appeared at headquarters, Anduin could feel that his emotions were becoming more and more irritable.

The lost magical animals were nowhere to be found, which even affected the Ministry of Magic's decentralization process. The most terrifying thing was that the enemy lurking in the dark didn't know when they would strike again.

Plus, with the various long spears in the club with different thoughts, it would be strange if he could maintain a normal heart.

……

Norway, Finnmark County, can be said to be the northernmost part of the European continent, and it is also the location of Durmstrang Institute.

Durmstrang has existed since at least 1294, and it is a magical school with a long history. It is also one of the three largest magical schools in Europe, on par with Hogwarts and Beauxbatons.

However, due to the general discrimination against Muggle-born wizards in the Nordic wizarding world, Durmstrang School does not admit Muggle-born students, and it is notorious for highlighting dark magic in its curriculum.

Around Durmstrang, there is also a wizarding gathering place similar to Hogsmeade.

This night, in the corner of the Snow Melt Bar in the wizarding gathering place, a wizard in a black robe was sitting. He casually ordered a butterbeer and then waited quietly, as if waiting for someone.

The other wizards around him did not have strange thoughts about this wizard. These sneaky people were either black market merchants or their faces were ruined by the potions they had concocted themselves. They were used to it.

Before long, a person also wearing a black robe sat opposite this mysterious wizard, and said in a low voice after sitting down, "Sorry, sir, for keeping you waiting."
