Hogwarts: Voldemort, don't stop me from studying

Among the four, Thick-browed Dal should have the most information and may even know the true identity and address of the "Alpha".

But the guy reacted quickly, and had an unpredictable door key, so even though Wade was prepared in advance, he still couldn't stop him.

But that bite from the eight-eyed giant spider must have injected a lot of venom, and it happened to pierce the forehead... I don’t know whether the person taken back by the portkey was a corpse or a living person.

Wade opened up the wardrobe space, and the spiders went in with their beards dragging. They were salivating over the huge piece of meat, but under the watchful eye of Supervisor Michal, they ultimately did not dare to act rashly.

As for the two spiders that were injured earlier, they had already been eaten clean by their own kind.

Wade walked around and singled out the two people who had participated in the negotiations and looked like leaders, hoping to extract more useful intelligence.

The effectiveness of the Water of Life and Death was as stable as ever, but Wade was still a little disappointed.

Of course he knew that it was a bit idealistic to expect Thick-browed Dale and his crew to lead the way without knowing anything, but he didn't expect that the plan had to be changed before the ship even docked in the United States.

Many forces that covet the alchemist have gathered in the lower cabin. Regardless of whether Wade participates or not, Dahl and others are destined to fail to reach their destination smoothly.

Rather than let them create chaos of unknown scale, Vader would rather take the situation into his own hands.

It's a pity that Dahl ran away.

Wade sighed and cast a Muggle-Repelling Charm on several entrances on this floor to prevent interference. Although it was only a temporary spell, its effect could last for about half an hour.

Then Vader took out the truth serum.

He didn't have much of this forbidden potion, so he had to use it sparingly. Fortunately, if used on a Muggle, only one drop would be enough.

The clear liquid dripped, waking up the sleeping person, who stared at the floor with lifeless eyes.

Bearded Man: "No... I haven't seen that man... When I was in Norway, I transformed and killed someone on a full moon night. I was found by that group on my way to escape."

"I never believed what they said... Only a fool would believe that someone who doesn't even dare to show his face is selfless... This time? I just want to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune. With money, I can go to another country and start a new life..."

"Damn the werewolf future! I was just an ordinary kid with an ordinary but happy family. But because I was bitten by a werewolf... my family is completely destroyed! I wish all werewolves would die! Including me!"

Vader was silent.

To ordinary people, werewolves are legendary creatures, and many people do not believe they really exist.

If their child was bitten by a werewolf and luckily survived, the parents' thought would never be "this child will turn into a werewolf, lock him up quickly", but to find a way to heal him, accompany him, and help him get out of the psychological shadow.

Then, on a full-moon night, tragedy struck—the werewolf's sharp claws and fangs pounced on their closest people.

Wade put the bearded man aside and went to interrogate the others -

Man in suit: "My boss is very interested in magic...especially...the Philosopher's Stone, which is said to make people immortal..."

"I heard that the stone has been destroyed, but... since the alchemist can make the first Philosopher's Stone, he can definitely make the second one... so we need, we need more alchemists..."

"The boss hopes to unearth the secrets of magic and unlock the upper limit of human lifespan with the support of scientific experiments..."

A series of words came out of his mouth, as if they were pre-rehearsed speeches.

Vader asked, "Besides that, what's the real reason?"

Man in suit: "...the boss has cancer."

Vader: "How many people did you bring?"

The man in the suit pointed out his accomplice honestly.

Vader: "That's all?"

He also said: "We received the news too late, and the bounty hunter who sold the information has a very bad reputation... We were ordered to investigate on the ship. After confirming the truth, the boss will make arrangements at the dock."

Another force also acts in the name of "company".

"Who doesn't want magic? Being omnipotent, turning stones into gold, and being immortal... Our company has been studying magic for a long time, but we have never been able to become a 'talented' person... Maybe magic itself has some solution, such as the legendary human alchemy..."

The white-haired old man said with a slightly crazy look.

He brought slightly more people with him, obviously intending to gather intelligence first.

He actually had the same forces as the man in the suit, and they all suspected that the bearded man was trying to get something for nothing.

Bearded Man seems to be a "celebrity" among the dark forces, but unfortunately this reputation is all negative. His black history of dishonesty not only greatly lowers the price of the intelligence he can obtain, but also gives Wade more time.

Wade asked the white-haired old man the name of his "company" and the names and identities of his subordinates. And... before he fainted, he had already sent a message.

According to the white-haired old man's experience, the personnel from the "company" on the other side of the ocean could arrive on the ship within a few hours.

While there was still time, Wade asked the others.

A: "I once participated in the capture of a wizard... in Africa... that person's magic power went riot, and I was the only one who survived the entire team..."

Brother B: "I have never arrested underage wizards... No, I don't know if the company has any. Each group is independent of each other..."

Ms. C: “…These are the names of my superiors and colleagues. As for the others, we are not allowed to know…”

D: "If the puppets are obtained by the United States, they will definitely become weapons to massacre our people... So I will destroy them here at all costs..."

Oh…and a Mission Impossible?

Vader: "How are you going to kill so many people?"

D: "I installed a bomb on the ship... On the third day of sailing, the ship will be blown up..."

Vader: "...Draw the locations of all the bombs for me!"

Judging from the time, the members of the American company should have arrived when the bomb exploded.

Wade felt helpless for the bearded man - he thought the news would cause a sensation, but the intelligence buyers did not take it seriously. Instead, one of their little brothers took it seriously and was ready to send everyone to hell.

Even the bearded man himself was not immune.

After all, being a werewolf doesn't mean he can use magic, these are two different systems. Bearded Man doesn't have a portkey and can't Apparate, if the ship really explodes, he can only be buried in the sea with everyone else.

While he was busy, Wade suddenly received a message from Rita Skeeter -

[Rita: You used the portkey? You left me alone?]

Wade frowned and replied: [No, someone else used the portkey - how did you know? ]

[Rita: The Ministry of Magic attaches the most importance to the Statute of Secrecy, but the supervision of portkeys has always been very strict. There are requirements for when to use them and who can use them, and applications must be made in advance.]

[Once an illegal portkey is used, it will be discovered quickly. Normally, the Ministry of Magic has no control over the sea, but don't forget that there are people from the Ministry of Magic on this ship.]

[Umbridge has just received news from the Ministry of Magic and is about to take people to check. Leave early and don't let them find you.]

[Also, I just found the person you were looking for on the fourth floor. ]

Skeeter's message was so quick and brief that it almost seemed like it was from someone else.

Vader waved his hand, and several guys in the crowd were dragged away by the Acromantula.

During the interrogation, these people truthfully confessed their past crimes, some of whom even attacked children as young as a few years old. Wade did not intend to let them go back alive.

As for the rest, except for the bearded man who was stuffed into the closet space by Wade, the rest were left to the Ministry of Magic.

If the Ministry of Magic knew that so many Muggles coveted the power of magic, how would they react? Would Fudge run to Dumbledore crying for help, or would he continue to turn a blind eye?

Vader was curious.

……

"Dong dong dong..."

A burst of hurried footsteps echoed in the stairwell, and two Aurors, holding wands, rushed into the parking lot. After looking around, they raised their hands to give a signal.

Then there were seven or eight more people. Some of them were holding silver, mine-detector-like devices and scanning the area up and down; others were drawing circles of varying sizes with magic wands, and glowing silver traces appeared on the ground, walls, and cars.

They all ignored the people lying on the ground.

Then, a woman wearing a pink dress and dressed like a little girl came in on high heels.

"Well?" she asked. "Did you confirm that this was the place where the Portkey was used?"

"Yes."

A fat girl with yellow hair and glasses whispered:

"We found traces of magic left by the use of the portkey. Someone had used a Muggle-repelling spell at the staircase and elevator entrances. In addition, there was a large amount of mucus, threads and hair left by magical creatures on a truck."

"According to preliminary estimates, there should have been more than ten eight-eyed giant spiders loaded into the truck. The price of this spider venom is very high..."

"So?" Umbridge smirked, interrupting her impatiently and asking, "What's the conclusion?"

"Someone must have wanted to smuggle the Acromantula, but somehow they were discovered and had a conflict with the Muggles on the ship..."

The fat girl speculated based on her own experience:

"Then he risked his life by using the portkey and left. But I still haven't figured out how he could have taken so many spiders at once. The Acromantula is a vicious spider, it's impossible for it to just follow you..."

"What's so difficult about this? Can't we just lock it up with a chain?"

Umbridge said casually. She finally lowered her eyes and looked at the people on the ground, and ordered: "Wake up these Muggles! Ask them who is the guy who smuggled the Acromantula?"

Before the person who was awakened had time to ask, he was faced with a question he couldn't understand, and said blankly:

"Acromantula? What is that?"

"Smuggling? I didn't smuggle! I always abide by the laws of the country!"

"The Portkey? Is that what you want?"

The white-haired old man saw that the visitor had ill intentions, so he pretended to be confused and took out a bunch of keys to his house.

After asking several people in a row and getting the same vague answers, Umbridge's fake smile disappeared.

"It seems that the criminal is very cunning, and these Muggles should know nothing."

Senior Undersecretary Umbridge did not ask in detail, nor did she want to waste potions on these "stupid" Muggles. After her patience ran out, she gave a cold order:

"Forget them all! Do not retain any memory of before and after boarding the ship, lest it cause a major leak of secrets in the wizarding world!"

Hearing "Oblivion", the white-haired old man's face suddenly changed. Before he could consider whether to reveal his identity, a magic wand was stretched out in front of him -

"Everything is forgotten!"

The old man who was hit by the spell suddenly lost his sight and fell on his back again.

Umbridge adjusted her floral shawl and said to the others:

"That guy may have fled to another country. There is no point in continuing to track him down."

"You guys clean up here. I still have to go and accompany Deputy Minister Gaben to visit the Muggle movie theater. I really don't know what's so good about this kind of thing! Mr. Greengrass, let's go."
