Chapter 162 The Real "Voldemort"
"I knew it……"
In the crowded Diagon Alley, looking at the news published in the most conspicuous handwriting and the largest page in the newspaper in her hand, Avada's face gradually twisted in pain: "After seeing that picture of Harry... I should have expected it when they took a group photo... Just take a group photo, why did Ron have to bring that guy with him!"
He read the contents of the newspaper with an expression as if he had eaten a lemon:
[Azkaban felon Sirius Black is still at large]
Below is a photo of Blake in prison. He is haggard and pale, looking like a skeleton, staring blankly at the camera with numb eyes.
[The Ministry of Magic confirmed today that Sirius Black, perhaps the most evil prisoner to ever hold a prisoner in Azkaban, is still at large. He was one of You-Know-Who's most elite Death Eaters, and was responsible for a horrific massacre - he once blew up an entire street with a spell, killing a wizard and twelve Muggles. Death...]
[Since the guards of Azkaban discovered that Black had escaped from prison last month, the Ministry of Magic has been pursuing it to this day, but there is still no harvest...]
[It is reported that the day before Black escaped from prison, he had obtained a newspaper from the striker, which published news about how the dark magic items left by the mysterious man were exposed and arrested at Hogwarts... It can be reasonable Suspicion is that this news stimulated Blake and made him eager to rescue his master...]
[Faced with reporters’ inquiries, Azkaban’s guard Auror refuted this view——]
["We had already brought the relevant news to the mysterious man when he was confirmed to have been arrested."]
[An Auror who did not want to be named said: “But at that time he just laughed like crazy and did not make any other reaction. He was never observed trying to escape from prison... and the person who was caught this time It’s just a dark magic item, why should it give him such a big stimulation?”]
[In this regard, our reporter suspected that the dark magic item left by the mysterious man had other meanings unknown to the public, so we tried to interview the current keeper of the item, Albus Dumbledore... But It's a pity that I was rejected. 】
[Although the reason for Blake's escape is a mystery, there is another point that should be taken more seriously, that is, we have not found any trace of Blake so far...]
["We are doing everything we can to recapture Black," Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge said. "I implore the wizarding community to remain calm."]
[In addition, Cornelius Fudge also revealed Black's information to the Muggle Prime Minister, a move that was condemned by the International Federation of Wizards...Muggles were told that Black carried a gun (which Muggles used to fight each other) A metal wand that can be used to kill people) is a murderer who escaped from prison, hoping to get clues in the Muggle society...]
"Think on the bright side..."
Avada put down the newspaper in despair: "This at least gives me a chance to get in touch with Black quickly so I can get the locket from Grimmauld Place, so I don't have to worry about Voldemort."
"But Peter can't be killed yet, at least not yet..."
To be honest, when he successfully sealed Voldemort's main soul in the second grade, he was thinking about whether to expose Peter Pettigrew directly - he kept Peter mainly because he wanted to have a back-up to deal with Voldemort, but he also Unexpectedly, the knowledge left behind by Professor Baker was so powerful that it helped him directly make Voldemort fall into a box...
Then, just as he was about to think about Peter again, the conspiracy of the Horcrux Diary came one after another, making him rack his brains to calculate and calculate throughout the third grade, which made his whole temperament gloomy. He returned to the orphanage. Even his old friends were shocked.
However, what happened in the third grade brought him some changes in the magical society and made him understand one thing-the elimination of Voldemort did not mean that things were over.
Voldemort was just a dark wizard with a very strong fighting ability and a very high level of research. What was truly terrifying was the power behind him - those ancient pure-blood families who upheld extreme pure-bloodism. In a sense, their existence is countless times more difficult than Voldemort's.
Voldemort could raise such a huge organization of Death Eaters. Where would the resources, funds and manpower needed come from? He went from a newbie who just learned how to make Horcruxes to a scientific research leader who has made countless achievements in the field of black magic. Where did he get the knowledge and data?
From beginning to end, Tom Marvolo Riddle was just a plant on the surface, and those ancient and powerful pure-blood families were the roots buried deep underground. As long as the roots are still there, the plant is not dead...
To cut the grass, remove the roots.
This is the "Voldemort" that Dumbledore really wants to destroy.
After thinking about this, Avada suddenly thought of a very interesting idea. And within this idea, there happened to be a perfect fit for Peter Pettigrew. And if that idea can really achieve the purpose he envisioned... Dumbledore can probably retire.
Of course, this idea is only in the preliminary stage now, and it still lacks a lot of knowledge and intelligence before it can be completely perfected. So Avada decided to make good use of this actually peaceful school year to obtain some in-depth information about the magical society...
As for how to plot against Black while attending Hogwarts, and at the same time gain a deeper understanding of the magical society outside the school, he already had a way, and he spent dozens of galleons and most of the vacation on it... I guess. It won't take long after school starts to be completely perfected.
Therefore, he couldn't just let Blackson tear Pettigrew apart just yet - if his idea could really achieve his intended purpose, then Peter would be too important.
"But it doesn't matter even if it doesn't work. Anyway, the locating spell on Pettigrew has never been broken, plus the Marauder's Map can reveal his identity at any time... Damn it, the twins have been in charge of the Marauder's Map for so many years, and they haven't even done it once. Did you find that the name of the mouse next to Ron is wrong?"
"Have they never paid attention to Ron? He is indeed my brother..."
While complaining in his mind, he took another look at the newspaper and made sure that there was no unexpected horror content in it before he felt a little more at ease: "At least this time no one thought that Sirius Black was going to Harry at Hogwarts. Yes, so I probably won’t have to face Dementors in school this semester, and I won’t have to put in the effort to learn the Patronus Charm.”
"Oh my God, I'm glad I don't need to practice the Patronus Charm. I have enough things to do this semester - contact Black, calculate Pettigrew, try to understand the magical society... Oh, and meet Remus Lu The werewolf curse on Ping..."
He sighed and rubbed his temples, then reached into his pocket and took out a book list - he came to Diagon Alley just to buy new books, but instead he ended up reading newspapers and thinking about future plans.
"The new textbook for the Care of Magical Creatures class, "The Monster Book of Monsters"..."
"Gan."
