The Little Superman of Hogwarts

No one would have imagined such a way of solving a case.

Keep in mind that it's only 1993, and even DVs aren't widespread yet. Closed-circuit television (surveillance) is only installed in a very few places.

Henry's electronics store only has CCTV at the cash register and the entrance. The entrance video footage is somewhat helpful, but as Cree analyzed, what's the point of catching these small fries?

As night fell, the Hogwarts trio set off towards a predetermined location.

It was an important stronghold of the local gang, and the source of this information was a "lively young man" lingering outside the ruins…

After getting those inferences in class, Cree made a bold assumption: the person who orchestrated the whole event with such ingenuity must be a very confident person.

Such a confident person would definitely send a subordinate to wait for those who truly appreciate the performance to connect with him.

Thinking of this, Cree felt that someone must be constantly monitoring the ruins of Henry's store from the outside.

So the three of them quickly caught a wretched "lively young man."

This "lively young man" was clearly too high on drugs in recent days, and his mind was a little unclear. Without using any high-level methods, just a few simple punches, the "lively young man" revealed everything he knew.

It is worth mentioning that, thanks to super memory, Cree taught himself Italian, but Hermione and Ginny were also fluent in Italian.

Hermione's mother had studied in Italy, so Hermione was influenced by her mother and had a strong interest in Italian, mastering it fluently in elementary school.

As for Ginny, after becoming a god in the virtual world, she once sent troops to attack Rome. In this process, she accidentally learned Italian. Although this memory became a third-person perspective due to personality protection, the knowledge she had learned would not be forgotten.

After arriving at the gang's headquarters, Cree landed on the roof from the air, but being extremely sensitive, he discovered that there were magical fluctuations in one of the rooms.

Cree opened his X-ray vision, and a man in wizard robes was performing ritual magic in the room.

A few minutes later, the three of them quietly stood outside the room.

The wizard performing the magic ritual was a witch in her forties.

"Can you tell what kind of magic ritual this is?" Hermione asked.

"A magic ritual that manipulates souls and parasitic puppets!" Cree replied, "Simply put, it's a kind of dark magic!"

Dark magic refers to any kind of magic that is primarily used to harm, control, or even kill people or creatures. Most people who use dark magic are evil, but not all.

Dark magic can often be used to harm others, from various spells including the Unforgivable Curses, to brewing dark potions, breeding dark creatures, and so on. These behaviors are usually illegal, at least severely prohibited in the magical world.

A wizard who uses dark magic, or even studies dark magic, is not necessarily guilty in the world of Harry Potter.

For example, the entire Knockturn Alley can be said to be related to dark magic. Borgin and Burkes is full of dark magic items, but not all of these items will be confiscated. Lucius pawned some items in the store more because putting them at home "would cause inconvenience"—of course, these things might also cause problems in the store, but at least Borgin and Burkes can properly keep them.

The reason why dark magic is forbidden is because it is based on the evil side of human nature. People like Harry, whose inner evil thoughts are not strong enough, have very limited power even if they use the Unforgivable Curses. As long as you use dark magic, it is equivalent to writing the words "I am a bad person" on your face, because since your dark magic has taken effect, it means that your inner evil thoughts are strong enough.

"According to the regulations for underage wizards, we can't use magic now, so how should we catch her?" Ginny asked.

"Of course, use violence!" Cree exchanged a meaningful look with Hermione.

The Queen and Princess magic allows Hermione to bear about 1% of Cree's power.

Moreover, recent experiments have found that Hermione's magic and power also increase with the increase of Cree's magic and power.

The strength of Cree's hand has exceeded 600 tons, which means that Hermione's single-handed strength can reach about 6 tons!

What an amazing number!

6 tons of power is equivalent to the power of the largest African elephant.

Apart from magic and mechanical equipment, no creature on this planet can resist it.

Not to mention Cree's 600 tons of power. Once this 600 tons of impact force erupts, it is simply like a landslide!

In the next instant, Cree smashed the door with a punch, sprinted in at supersonic speed, and hammered the table to pieces. The huge sonic boom shocked the evil witch who was performing the ritual magic, and her ears were ringing! Instantly, she fainted.

When the witch woke up, she had been stripped of her clothes—cough cough—Hermione and Ginny did this.

The whole person was spread out and tied to a huge bed in a large character shape.

"Very good, now you're awake! I ask, you answer. If there's any mistake, you'll bear the corresponding consequences!" Hermione's voice came from the darkness.

"What's your name?" Hermione asked.

"Who are you? How dare you tie me up?" The witch, who hadn't figured out the situation, was instantly a little confused.

"Swish…" Cree threw out a chopstick, and the chopstick instantly pierced the witch's thigh.

At this moment, the witch finally understood her situation…

Forty minutes later, a simple report was written by Cree. The course of events seemed so simple that Cree sometimes felt that he was simply thinking too much.

This witch is a dark wizard hiding in the shadows. She is sixty-five years old this year, and her birthplace is Albania.

Albania is an extremely chaotic place. In the original book, Voldemort was lurking in Albania. He stayed in Albania for more than 10 years.

But Albania is clearly a very wealthy place. For those rich people, let alone a gold ring, even a gold bracelet is nothing.

But along with this is the chaos of Albania.

It is precisely based on this background that Voldemort lived in Albania for more than 12 years.
