Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

A new wizard has arrived!
Cassio obviously sensed something in advance and avoided the wizard.

This was a witch, and she scanned the rooftop carefully, including the corner where Hermione and Draco were hiding.

All three of them felt their eyes meet with the wizard's and felt a surge of nervousness.

But the next second, the witch looked away and she saw nothing.

After a while, another wizard came to the rooftop through "Apparition".

Only then did Hermione realize that their location was not at all hidden from these senior wizards.

As long as they want, they can use Apparition to come and investigate at any time.

When they lit the fireworks for the first time, they wandered around the rooftop for a while, but no wizard appeared.

The fireworks were lit in the same way the second time, but they appeared at a different time, which attracted the wizard to come and check it out.

This shows that Draco's guess was correct.

No matter how magical the effect of the time converter is, it cannot be concealed from those high-level wizards.

Draco turned to look at Hermione and found that her expression was serious and solemn.

Wizards came to investigate one after another, which had a great impact on Hermione.

This meant that her frequent use of the Time-Turner in Hogwarts this semester, just to allow herself to study all the elective courses, was no secret to many professors.

But none of them told her!
If she knew she couldn't hide it in front of the professor, she would be more or less mentally prepared.

Now that she knew without any expectation that someone was spying on her whereabouts, Hermione felt very uncomfortable with the realization that she was being spied on.

She felt that the professor had mastered her study history for the past six months. Everyone knew her activities. If she used the time converter to do other things in the future, she would not be able to hide it from the professor.

Although she never thought of using the time turner to do bad things.

Another witch appeared on the balcony, and this witch was very familiar to the three wizards. It was Professor McGonagall.

Mag scanned the rooftop and communicated with the other wizards who were still inside.

"What did you notice?"

"No, I was the first one to arrive. Before I came, I didn't see anyone on the rooftop."

“Were the fireworks still going off when you came?”

"No, the fireworks have burned out, only a few sparks are left."

McGonagall asked in confusion: "Why didn't the Death Eaters send anyone to investigate? This is not their style."

Another witch shrugged. "I heard that the Auror's operation went smoothly. Perhaps they were all held up by the Aurors."

Magso looked around but found nothing and soon disappeared from the rooftop.

As she left, the other wizards followed.

After a while, the rooftop became empty.

Hermione felt her eyes itchy and rubbed them.

During this time, they did not take any action.

The two sat quietly on the balcony for several minutes, and suddenly they heard a sound from outside.

The two wizards lifted the invisibility spell and said, "The people who set off the fireworks ran away a long time ago. They are very skilled."

"That group of people must be the ones who changed time and space, and created a huge commotion in advance."

"Haha, can't we wizards light the fireworks?"

"It doesn't have any effect on us lighting fireworks, but it may not have any effect on those people."

The two wizards chatted and laughed, and soon disappeared on the rooftop.

Draco quietly took out a strange object for detection, lifted a corner of the invisibility cloak, and let the object out.

The strange object was a small square with a light bulb on it. When it was placed outside, it kept flashing red light.

A minute later, it turned green and remained green.

Draco finally breathed a sigh of relief: "I passed the test. There are no wizards outside."

Only then did they dare to leave the rooftop and hurried to Honeydukes.

According to Draco's efficiency, he should have come to the Shrieking Shack, seen the Golden Snitch, and then went to Honeydukes.

So many wizards had come to the rooftop before. Hermione didn't think that with their current strength, they could escape the detection of these senior wizards.

So rather than using Apparition to go directly to Honeydukes without using the invisibility cloak, the two preferred to use the invisibility cloak.

As long as you walk faster, you can arrive quickly.

While running, Hermione also looked around with the corner of her eyes, looking for any trace of Harry.

She whispered, "I don't know where Harry is trapped. If he encounters a Death Eater alone, I'm afraid his life will be in danger."

Draco said quickly: "Not necessarily, if he really encounters a Death Eater, Harry has an advantage.

The fact that he knows the Patronus Charm is better than many wizards, and the Patronus Charm is very effective against Death Eaters!"

At this time they must not panic, things must be solved one by one.

Only after solving the toxin problem in Ron can we go looking for Harry.

Hermione glanced at Draco and felt that he had the qualities of a leader when faced with a crisis.

This is a bit like Harry.

Whenever Harry encountered danger, he always wanted to stand up for himself and didn't want to implicate them.

It's just that Harry is a little more impulsive than Draco.

"Stop, we'll just observe from here and can't go any further." Draco said suddenly. They had already arrived at an observation point, not far away was the Honeydukes shop.

After waiting for a while, Hermione, Draco and Harry did not show up, but "Draco" appeared at the edge of the alley first.

"Draco" was very cautious, and even when he went to Honeydukes, he used an invisibility spell.

Draco was very familiar with this wave of usage, so he immediately determined that his "past self" had arrived.

After a while, three little wizards appeared at the door of Honeydukes. Hermione and Harry supported the poisoned Ron and looked around anxiously.

"Hermione" said excitedly: "We have to find Draco quickly. This poison was developed by Draco. He must have an antidote!"

"Harry" asked, "But how do we find him?" "Hermione" quickly said, "Make a noise! ​​We create a noise in a familiar place, let him notice it, and he will know that something happened on our side!"

Just as they were about to leave, the invisible "Draco" showed up and looked at them puzzledly: "Hermione, Harry, Ron? What's wrong with you?"

"Hermione" saw "Draco" and quickly told him that Ron was poisoned.

Draco frowned: "Why are you so careless?"

He checked Ron's eyelids and heartbeat, and breathed a sigh of relief: "The poison hasn't spread too deeply. I'll give him first aid now. As long as he doesn't move, he will be able to recover in a day."

Seeing that Ron was saved, Hermione and Draco couldn't help but clench their fists in excitement.

Draco said, "Let's go find Harry now! But Hermione, I'm curious about one thing. When an hour passes by, where will we be?"

Hermione said without hesitation: "I don't know, because I never meet my past self. When time returns to normal, my past self has disappeared, and time comes to my present self again."

Draco was puzzled: "What about the things we changed in the past?"

Hermione: "Nature will affect the present and the future. When the time for reversal comes, we will know the corrected results."

Draco said, "Then when the time is almost up, let's go to Ron. I need to know the progress of his injury treatment."

Hermione said in a deep voice: "Okay, I also want to know if my judgment is correct."

While they were out looking for Harry, Lin Xia was secretly hunting Death Eaters.

Unlike the other two who had to sneak around using invisibility cloaks, Lin Xia revealed her whereabouts openly.

She walked slowly down the empty streets, not going to any higher ground to see where the Death Eaters were.

Now the chaos that had just begun was different.

At first, the Death Eaters could still hunt in one place, but as time got closer to night, the Death Eaters kept changing their positions, for fear of being captured by the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic.

Yes, when Lin Xia was walking on the street, he deliberately amplified his hearing and heard the conversations of the wizards hiding in the house.

"I saw the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic when I came here just now. They were capturing Death Eaters."

"I saw it too. I had stepped into a trap set by the Death Eaters, but the Aurors started a fight with the Death Eaters ahead of time. I heard it at the end of the road! Fortunately, the Aurors arrived ahead of time, otherwise I would have fallen into their trap!"

"Alas, I don't know how many wizards will be killed or injured this time. The Death Eaters have actually changed their style. In the past, they didn't bother to play tricks, but openly created fear!"

It was because of hearing these words that Lin Xia gave up on standing on a high place to explore.

It is conceivable that even if one stands at a high place and looks out, one will not be able to observe anything. Instead, it will arouse the vigilance of the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic and make them aware of Lin Xia's abnormal behavior.

At this time, all the wizards had tried their best to hide, and only Lin Xia was walking on the street without hiding his body.

She soon attracted the attention of the Death Eaters who were watching from the dark.

Coincidentally, the street she was walking on was also the street Hermione and Draco were walking on.

So the two of them saw Lin Xia.

Draco felt a little relieved when he saw Lin Xia.

Lin Xia has already explored out from underground, but no one knows what she found under the station, or found nothing.

If they could get Linxia to go with them to look for Harry, they would have a greater chance of finding him.

Even Hermione had to admit that the number of spells Lin Xia knew and the strength of her spellcasting were much higher than her and Draco's. Just because she and Draco couldn't think of a method didn't mean Lin Xia couldn't think of it.

Just as they were about to approach Lin Xia, suddenly, they stopped.

In their sight, a tall wizard walked out of a house, came hurriedly to Lin Xia, gestured with his hands, and talked to her excitedly.

Draco and Hermione immediately used the Sensei spell.

The tall wizard said, "Little witch, you are a student from nearby, right? This is not a place you can come to. Come with me and hide in the house. I will try my best to protect you!"

Lin Xia glanced at him and said indifferently: "No need, I am an excellent student at Hogwarts, I can deal with the Death Eaters."

Hearing the word "excellent student", the tall wizard's eyes flickered and he praised: "No wonder you are so brave, it turns out you are so outstanding."

"But..." He changed the subject, "Little witch, you don't understand the current situation in Hogsmeade. Death Eaters are mixed in with the wizards. You are too young and too naive to see through the Death Eaters' traps."

The wizard reached out to pull Lin Xia and said impatiently: "If it weren't for the fact that you are my student, I would never want to take care of you. Come with me, and I will take you to hide."

Lin Xia stepped back, avoiding the wizard's touch, and looked at him with a half-smile:

"You want to take care of me and hide me away?"

She said slowly: "Since you said that Death Eaters are insidious and cunning, and they mingle among wizards, can you prove that you are not a Death Eater? Maybe you deliberately took me to the place where you set the trap?"

The tall wizard immediately blushed and said excitedly: "You don't know how to appreciate kindness. I wanted to take care of you because you are a student. It would have been fine if you didn't go, but you even slandered me!
If there are Aurors nearby, I will definitely ask them to come and take a look. Maybe you are a Death Eater in disguise. Who else would appear on the street so openly and walk leisurely now? "

The wizard turned around and left in frustration. Suddenly, Lin Xia's voice came from behind him: "Wait!"

With his back to Lin Xia, the Death Eater showed an obvious joy on his face, and because he was too happy, his cheeks were a little distorted for a moment.

But in just a moment, he returned to his previous appearance.

Draco and Hermione saw the whole process of her changing facial expressions, and they couldn't help but worry about Lin Xia.

Hermione said quickly: "Lin Xia is in danger, that wizard is wrong!"

She gripped her wand tightly, her hand grasping the edge of the Invisibility Cloak, her body ready to strike.

As long as there is something wrong, she will immediately lift up her invisibility cloak and cast a Patronus spell!
Draco said calmly and rationally: "Wait, Lin Xia should have noticed it."

On the street, the tall wizard turned around and muttered to Lin Xia: "Now believe me, we are both white wizards, I will definitely not harm you, just because you are a student--"

Before he could finish his words, suddenly an ultimate white light flashed before his eyes, and it hit his face quickly, accurately and fiercely!

Lin Xia said expressionlessly: "You talk too much."

"what--!"

When the wizard's face came into contact with the white ball created by the Patronus Charm, it was as if a bottle of high-strength concentrated sulfuric acid had been poured on it.

His face instantly became ulcerated beyond recognition!

The wizard fell to the ground, wailing in agony, "Why, why—"

Lin Xia looked at him and said, "Perhaps you don't know that normal wizards don't have the power of the evil world in their bodies. Unless they encounter an offensive Patronus spell, they won't react.

And I just cast a patronus charm against gender, imagining the patronus charm as a shield to protect myself. And you are in this state now——"

She said word by word: "He is the real Death Eater!" (End of this chapter)
