Chapter 409
Cassandra had been standing far away pretending to be indifferent.
But when she heard that the snakewood tree was lost, she could no longer pretend.
"Dad, are you kidding?" Cassandra looked at Lafzi in disbelief: "How could the snakewood tree be lost? Did a student steal a lot of leaves?"
The leaves of the snakewood tree have strong medicinal effects and are a versatile substitute that can be used in a variety of potions. They are very precious.
The snakewood tree in Ilvermorny is more than 200 years old. Students have secretly taken leaves to sell before, so Cassandra has such doubts.
However, Lafzi shook his head: "Cassandra, no matter how confused I am, I will not confuse the words leaves and trees, right? It's really the snakewood tree that is lost."
"Who did it!" Cassandra's angry face flushed.
Ilvermorny originally had a shallow foundation, and there was very little capital to brag about.
The snakewood tree is the most precious treasure among them.
"I don't know." Lavchi shook his head: "The whole tree seemed to have been uprooted. When it was found, there was only a big pit, and not even a root was left."
"Agilbert went back to track down the murderer. We have notified the Magic Congress, and the news has been temporarily covered up."
"Cassandra, don't tell other students for the time being. Maybe you have found it when you go back?"
"Mr. Lawrence, please also "six eight three" to help keep it secret." Lavchi looked at Wayne again.
"Don't worry, Mr. Volley." Wayne nodded gently.
After thinking for a while, he asked again: "Have you ever thought of using a time converter to find out who the murderer is?"
Lafzi sighed again: "As soon as we found out that something was wrong, the school went to the department to apply for a time converter, but the murderer obviously expected us to do so. There is magic interference nearby. As soon as I go back to the past, my body will become unstable as soon as I get close to it."
"Is that so..." Wayne narrowed his eyes and kept pinching his fingers hidden in his robe.
The Fenghou Qimen Guaxiang kept changing, and in the end, it was fixed on a young figure with black hair, and the specific face could not be seen clearly.
But even this vague figure was enough for Wayne to determine his identity.
Tom actually ran to North America?
The bigger the matter, the greater the backlash.
From a fantasy perspective, Tom's status in this world is equivalent to the destined villain. It is already a good result to be able to calculate that he took action.
Mr. Wally didn't notice Wayne's abnormality, told him some of his guesses, and then left with Cassandra.
If something weird like this happened in North America, the blame would most likely be put on the Purgers.
The two sides have been enemies for hundreds of years, so it's not surprising that they would do anything despicable.
Wayne knew why Tom stole a tree.
Ilvermorny people probably didn't know that it wasn't just an ordinary snakewood tree, but Slytherin's wand.
But it's hard to say, maybe they knew, but there was no way to wake up the sleeping wand, so they let the tree grow and picked some leaves.
After parting with the two, Wayne, who was originally going to go back to the dormitory, turned around and found Ksenia in the new building.
Time was urgent, and he didn't have time to drink and talk. His eyes flashed, and he used the Imperius Curse to take the person to a hidden corner.
"Ksenia, have you contacted Kosdoris's students recently?"
Ksenia nodded in a trance: "I have been writing letters to my good friend Biezokova."
"Have you talked about Professor Corvinos?"
"Yes, but not much."
"Is he still in school? Has he asked for leave?"
"........"
Wayne asked a lot, but Ksenia could not answer much.
I only know that Kosdoris is fine and nothing special has happened.
Wayne released Ksenia after erasing her memory.
As for Tom's matter, Sniff, who was hiding in the dark, would only show up when he saw the gold coins. As long as he had a purpose, he would be exposed sooner or later.
All he had to do was sit on the high sky and wait for him to challenge him.
Back in the dormitory, Wayne checked Barty's condition again. After finding that there was no mistake, he came to the principal's office on time at ten o'clock.
Dumbledore and Moody had been waiting for a long time. Moody didn't find anything, but Dumbledore felt something different.
"Wayne, what are you doing..." Old Dumbledore asked in doubt.
This change was not in appearance or momentum, but purely an intuition of Dumbledore.
His body tightened slightly, as if facing a great enemy. Dumbledore didn't realize that his hand had unconsciously touched the Elder Wand.
This is the real sharpness, which stimulated him to instinctively feel a sense of crisis.
"What's wrong with me?" Seeing Dumbledore's hesitant look, Wayne was stunned, and then saw the wand in his hand, thought of something, and suddenly realized it.
"Professor, I have made some breakthroughs in the magic I have been researching recently. It's just a small matter, don't worry about it."
Dumbledore: "........"
He also wants to make a breakthrough, why is it so difficult?
Although wizards do not have a clear realm division, nor do they have the legendary divine sense that can see the strength of the other party at a glance.
But people at the same level will still feel it, that is a kind of equal intuition.
Dumbledore is now increasingly unable to figure out how far Wayne has gone, maybe he has surpassed him.
He does not have any jealousy or fear, and even hopes that Wayne will become stronger and stronger.
It would be best if he could crush Voldemort with one hand, so that he can retire and enjoy his old age..
"Is it because of the Ravenclaw notebook?" Moody suddenly asked.
Wayne hesitated for a moment and nodded: "I guess so."
He did gain some knowledge from Ravenclaw's notebook recently.
However, the reason for such a big change is that he has a deeper understanding of magic and has further analyzed the Dragon King's inheritance.
Moody nodded and didn't ask any more specific questions.
He was not interested in these ancient magics. What he wanted to find out most now was why Wayne called them all here so late.
An hour later, there were only two old men left in the office. Wayne didn't know when he had gone back.
Dumbledore and Moody's expressions were particularly wonderful, and they didn't speak for a long time.
After thinking for a while, Moody asked, "Albus, do you think Wayne's method is feasible?"
Dumbledore nodded subconsciously, "It is definitely feasible. He never does anything he is not sure of, but it just sounds a little unreliable..."
"But you just saw the state of Barty the Younger." Moody frowned, "This spell is too evil. I can't believe it is Barty the Younger."
"I didn't expect to be able to do this." Dumbledore was a little happy, "Look, Frank and Alice's illness can be cured."
After thinking for a while, he decided: "Then follow Wayne's plan. This is indeed safer and your safety is guaranteed."
Moody said nonchalantly: "As long as the Dark Lord can be killed, I'm fine even if I die."
"Alastor, this is a meaningless sacrifice. It's still a little difficult to completely destroy him. I need your strength."
Moody muttered, and didn't know what to say. He took the suitcase left by Wayne and left.
Soon, the time came to June 24th 0. (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
After the warriors finished breakfast, they were called to the meeting room next to the auditorium by Professor McGonagall.
Hearing that his family members were coming, Harry immediately showed an expression of disbelief. He didn't believe that the Dursleys, who avoided magic, would come to cheer him up.
But if they knew that this competition was life-threatening, they might come to pray for him to die quickly.
But when he walked into the meeting room, Harry immediately showed a happy smile.
"You didn't expect it!" Mrs. Weasley greeted him enthusiastically, "This is Arthur's idea. We want to give you a surprise."
"Hello." Bill smiled and shook hands with Harry: "Charlie wanted to come too, but he couldn't leave. He said that your match against Tree Peak was so exciting, it was incredible."
Harry explained modestly in a low voice.
The room was very large, and the parents of the warriors occupied a certain space to encourage their children. Wayne also slipped in and whispered something to the Delacour couple.
Mr. Delacour now looked at him with eyes that were not eyes and nose that was not a nose.
When Fleur and her mother said quietlyWhen he said that, he said with resentment: "Wayne, it's not enough that you kidnapped one of my daughters, are you going to kidnap my other baby too?"
"She's still a child!"
Mr. Delacour was so angry that his liver hurt. He originally came here with joy, thinking that Gabrielle would be very happy after not seeing her father for so long.
As a result, the second daughter did not react to his arrival at all, but kept sticking to Wayne, like a little follower.
"Uncle, you think too much." Wayne laughed dryly.
"I'm just nicer to Gabrielle. Who told you not to bring her a gift this time? I guess she's angry?"[]
"That's because we were in a hurry." Mr. Delacour said depressedly: "I have to work overtime after I go back."
Wayne looked at his resentful future father-in-law, calmly handed him a few bottles of magic potion, and then explained the purpose.
Mr. Delacour immediately smiled and put it away.
"What are you talking about? You look so happy?" Lady Delacour noticed the smile on his face and asked casually.
Mr. Delacour quickly said seriously: "Nothing, we are talking about Fleur's performance."
Wayne pulled himself out and went to say hello to Sakura's mother, Kinomoto Nadeshiko.
Not staying for too long, several warriors led the parents out of the conference hall.
Many of them came to Hogwarts for the first time, and perhaps it was the only time in their lives, so they naturally had to take a good look.
In the morning, Wayne accompanied the Delacour couple on a walk on the grounds, visited the Whomping Willow and several school transportation tools, and in the afternoon he took Sakura and her mother to introduce a group of portraits in the castle.
Today's dinner was much richer than usual, but as the game approached, the warriors who were happy about the arrival of their families began to feel nervous and did not eat much.
In the guest of honor, Fudge and the principals were chatting and laughing, and they were in high spirits. They even raised their glasses from a distance and clinked glasses with Wayne.
Until the ceiling turned dark purple, Dumbledore stood up and everyone quieted down.
"Ladies and gentlemen, in five minutes, I will invite you to the Quidditch field to watch the last event of the Holy Grail War. Now, please follow Mr. Bagman to the playground."
Warm applause rang out in the hall, and the warriors walked out of the hall. Before leaving, their parents handed over a bag of coins.
"What is this?" Harry looked at Sirius with a blank face.
"Who knows, it may be useful in a while?" Sirius had a strange expression and didn't say much.
With curiosity, Harry followed Bagman.
When the warriors entered the familiar tent, Wayne sat behind a table and looked at them with a smile.
Harry immediately understood who the money was for! .
