The man behind Hogwarts

Just as Vivian was thinking about it, a battle about wizards in the center of Hongye Town came to an end.

Crohn held the wand and pushed the door in slowly.

The red wooden door he pushed open was in tatters, especially the right half, with several large holes in the middle. The sawdust was swaying. As Crohn pushed it open, the wooden door could no longer hold up.' It completely shattered with a crack.

The scene inside the room was very chaotic.

Broken furniture, sofa cores with flying feathers, blazing flames in a corner of the room, and... a middle-aged man lying on the ground.

This middle-aged man is slightly obese.

At this time, he was like a wooden man, lying on the ground motionless in a weird posture, but his eyes were as wide as light bulbs, staring at Crohn who came in.

Crohn kicked aside a table in front of him and walked to Elijah.

He twirled his wand, "Expelliarmus!"

After the disarming spell was recited, Elijah's hand holding the wand was forcibly released, and the wand flew out and landed in the corner of the room.

"Cron?!"

"Why is it you! It turns out that the person I fought with just now was you. I was shocked!"

"Cron, what are you doing, why did you attack me?"

The obese man Elijah forced a smile and said, "It turns out nothing happened to you. I was still worried about you. Stop making trouble and break the petrification spell for me."

It turned out that he was under a petrification curse.

Crohn also deliberately didn't turn his whole body to stone, so he could still speak.

Crohn sneaked into the house a minute ago and carried out a sneak attack outside the door. Several spells were cast in an instant;

Although Elijah was the one who was attacked by surprise, he was also very vigilant and avoided the first two killing curses.

The experienced man immediately hid behind the sofa, cast a killing curse at no target outside the door, and then prepared to use Apparition to escape.

Without even thinking about it, the person who attacked him must be Crohn;

I am definitely no match for Crohn.

Escape, only escape!

……

"Elijah, is there anything else you want to say?"

Crohn's eyes were cold, ignoring the other person's false smile, and pointed the wand at him.

Elijah's heart suddenly dropped when he saw Crohn's actions.

"How do you know it was me who betrayed you? I'm not the only one who knows your information. Why do you only doubt me?"

"Is this important?"

"Ha!" Elijah smiled bitterly, yes, is this important? The important thing is that he is going to die soon.

"Cron, we have known each other for decades. Do you really want to kill me?"

"Give me a life. I can leave England and never come back."

His expression was extremely sincere, and his eyes showed a color that was very familiar to Crohn;

But he only saw the other party's cold eyes and livid face.

"It seems you have no last words."

Crohn raised his wand slightly and opened his lips.

This is the killing curse!

Elijah knew what the curse was just by looking at this hand movement, and the fear of death immediately came to his heart, "No, no Crohn, we have been friends for decades! I have helped you a lot. !Are you so heartless!!"

Unfeeling...

Since you know I am heartless, why would you betray me...

Elijah no longer had a false smile on his face. The horror of death destroyed his spiritual will. His facial features were distorted and he kept crying for mercy.

"I know a very important news..."

He couldn't move his whole body and could only move his eyes desperately. Both eyes turned to the left, "I know a piece of news about Voldemort. If you let me go, I will sue..."

He hasn't finished speaking yet,

Crohn has already finished reciting the magic spell - "Avada Kedavra"!

A black magic power flew out from the wand and hit the opponent's heart directly. Because the killing curse destroyed the effect of the 'Petrification Curse' on Elijah, Elijah was free for a moment;

But the next moment, he clutched his chest tightly, opened his eyes wide, and made a "ho ho" sound from his mouth;

After dozens of seconds, the life breath in his eyes completely dissipated.

"You know me, how could I listen to a dying person..."

Crohn's eyes flashed with pain, and the hand holding the wand dropped weakly.

After taking a look at the environment of the room, he sat down on the ground.

After sitting in silence for half an hour, Crohn suppressed his annoyance and began to clean the battlefield.

First, he helped Elijah pack up his body, cremated it and put it into a sealed iron box, preparing to find a place to bury it.

Then look to the left.

"Just now he seemed to say that he knew the news about Voldemort..."

The left side of the room was also in chaos. A bookshelf near the wall was rickety, and the desk in front of the bookshelf had half of its legs broken and was leaning crookedly.

Looking through the desk, he found a letter.

The envelope was sent to Elijah from a man nicknamed "The Treasure Merchant." In the letter, the man invited Elijah to attend a gathering of wizards. He also specifically mentioned that there will be a highlight at this gathering, a book involving ancient magic.

"Ancient magic?..."

Crohn frowned, "But this has nothing to do with Voldemort."

He continued to rummage on the table, but found nothing useful. Unwilling to give up, he took aim at the bookshelf at the back.

First, he cast a 'super-sensory spell' on himself, then walked towards the bookshelf and scanned the rows of books.

Ok……

His gaze suddenly stopped, and he observed that there was a book that Elijah had just read, and his mark still remained on it.

Taking out the book, I found that the book was actually written by a dark wizard. The content of the book was written about the stories of dark lords in the past, such as the recent Grindelwald and Voldemort.

There is a note in the Voldemort chapter,

"When Voldemort became the Dark Lord, he issued an order to the Death Eaters to find all information about 'ancient magic' at all costs!"

This note was very familiar to me. It was Elijah's handwriting.

Combining the contents of the invitation letter just now, Crohn had a rough guess.

"Elijah knew the information that Voldemort was looking for 'ancient magic' very early on. Although he didn't know the reason, he must have paid attention to 'ancient magic', and a letter from the 'treasure hunter' immediately promoted him to The idea of ​​seizing the book from the rally."

"But why is Voldemort related to 'ancient magic'..."

"It seems that the attitude of the Ministry of Magic is very similar to that of Voldemort. They both attach great importance to 'ancient magic'. Perhaps there is some connection..."

Crohn thought for a moment and felt that the water was very deep.

Looking at the words 'ancient magic', he simply opened the invitation letter again and collected the information on it.

A gathering of wizards!

Steyning Wizarding Fair!
