[HP] Spring Mountain is Sleeping

There is no one in the cave.

It was already full daylight, and the British spread out in twos and threes in the cave, looking around the entire cave, feeling extremely disappointed—it can be said that all their careful preparations were in vain.They searched every corner of the cave feebly, but they still didn't get any valuable clues.

Now the group of intruders had to choose to rest for the time being.After several days of exhaustion, the extreme tension last night suddenly turned into hopeless relaxation. Everyone felt uncontrollable drowsiness. Some people began to doze off after sitting down, and some walked around, looking for themselves Items that may be of interest.

Either way, Tom or Severus had turned the cave into a reasonably comfortable dwelling, with everything an early settler on the Badlands should have.The outside of the cave was littered with cauldrons and Muggle cooking utensils, surrounding a crude stove made of a few stones.And within 10 minutes, the golden trio had squatted around the stove like those cauldrons, banging a pan, and discussing the possibility of having lunch here.

Fortunately, the stomachs of other wizards have not protested so strongly.They went inside the cave, where there were tables, chairs, bookshelves, and even a few books.There was a full-length mirror here, and a double bathtub was dug into the small hole behind it that was covered by a single-layered stone wall, but no water pipes were found.Encouraged by others, an Auror bravely jumped in and tried it. He reached out and touched it. There was no spell in the tank, and the inner wall was quite smooth.Professor Flitwick then quickly ran to the bookshelves.He managed to climb up from the chair to the table, and after confirming that there were no defensive spells on the bookshelf, he moved down a magic tome, sat on the table, and began to read with boredom and relish.

"There seems to be something missing here."

Wizards were walking around the cave, trying to mend their minds.It took them a long time to realize what was missing in the cave.

Riverdale.

Near the entrance of the cave, there should have been a whole piece of Riverdale, but now there are no trees, and there is only an ordinary stone cave bottom mixed with soil.

Therefore, for the British guests who came from afar, there is nothing in this cave.

Having figured this out, the wizards all tottered about in different positions.

Tom did something to the flowers.

Surely Severus would not allow such a precious magical plant to be done to, but Tom didn't care.He didn't need them now anyway—so he brutally bulldozed the field of flowers.Then, he dismantled the defenses of the cave entrance, and perhaps the other spells in the cave, packed up what he had to take, and left in a hurry.

The Order of the Phoenix can no longer hope to find the Dark Lord's next foothold, this time it is purely by chance.

As such, Tom - and Severus - had been given advance news of the Order's actions.

This explosive result brought people's scattered attention back together.Until half an hour ago, they still firmly believed that their actions were absolutely secret, and now they need to review all the links in the past.

In addition to the people present, there are also people who know about this matter-several Hogwarts professors, high-level personnel of the Order of the Phoenix and the Ministry of Magic, and their families may also be in the know.

There were only a handful of them, and even the Auror candidates to participate in the operation were decided in the last two days.

Even if someone leaked the secret, he needed quick access to the Dark Lord directly, because within twenty-four hours of the date of the operation, all of them were standing at the foot of the hill ahead.And cleaning up such a piece of Riverdale in front of Severus must not be such a quick thing.

So, who is the traitor?
