Chapter 478 Audacious
Since Quirrell used the dragon egg to find out from Hagrid how to subdue the three-headed dog Luwei, he has been in a bad mood. He felt like a fool and was being played hard by others.
Although Quirrell has found out most of the magical mechanisms, his mood is still not good. From what he inquired about, it can be known that most of the levels are not difficult to pass smoothly as long as you find the trick. However, Dumbledore also used magic to protect the Sorcerer's Stone. This is the biggest problem at present, and he is stealing magic. When trying to find a stone, you must find a way to take Dumbledore away, ensuring that you have enough time to break into the dungeon to steal the Sorcerer's Stone, and that you have enough time to fly away before Dumbledore comes back.
It would not be enough just to write a letter to Dumbledore with the help of the Ministry of Magic, because it does not take too long from Dumbledore arriving at the Ministry of Magic to returning to Hogwarts.
Moreover, once Dumbledore realized that someone was trying to remove him from Hogwarts, he would definitely realize that something was wrong.
Then, he needs to find a suitable solution.
At present, Quirrell has no good solution.
While he was thinking and absentmindedly eating breakfast, another owl flew in front of Quirrell and dropped a letter on the table.
Quirrell was stunned, because he had no friends at all, let alone mailed anything, and the sender had not signed it yet. No matter how you looked at it, the letter was weird.
Quirrell did not open the letter immediately. He even had the idea of burning this strange letter. After much hesitation, he finally opened the letter when he returned to the Defense Against the Dark Arts office.
It's just that inside the envelope was a blank piece of parchment.
Quirrell was stunned, looking at the blank parchment in a daze.
“Reveal yourself quickly!”
Quirrell seemed to have thought of something. He took out his wand and touched the parchment lightly. As expected, writing appeared on it.
Hello, Mr. Quirrell,
I will sell any news.
You seem to be very interested in the things in the restricted corridor on the fourth floor of Hogwarts. If you are willing to spend money, I am willing to...
Quirrell looked at this text and subconsciously wanted to tear up the entire parchment, but his eyes caught a glimpse of the text at the back. His general consciousness was that as long as you are willing to pay, I can tell you the magic arranged by the professors. levels and give you solutions.
At the end, in addition to the method of transaction, there was also a method of subduing the three-headed dog, asking Quirrell to verify whether the method in the letter was true.
And said that if Quirrell is willing to pay two hundred galleons, he can sell him the next two magic levels and the method to pass them.
Quirrell suddenly reached out and grabbed his chest, his breathing even became rapid, his eyes seemed to go dark, and he almost fainted.
who!
Who is this person!
The information he worked so hard to collect, this person is just like this...just like this...
Quirrell's chest rose up and down violently, breathing in fresh air to prevent himself from passing out.
Calm down, calm down, calm down quickly.
After an unknown amount of time, Quirrell finally breathed a sigh of relief and did not faint directly. He was shocked and angry that this man actually knew... about him.
Can’t stay!
At this moment, Quirrell had murderous intentions.
While Quirrell was thinking about **** this mysterious guy, he suddenly found that the parchment in his hand suddenly burned, and even the envelope was burning.
He was startled and the parchment slipped to the ground.
By the time Quirrell fully reacted, the envelope and parchment had already been reduced to ashes.
“Is it Snape?”
Quirrell's first thought was Snape, but how did Snape know how to subdue the three-headed dog?
Is it Hagrid?
No, that stupid guy didn’t even have a wand, how could he make the parchment spontaneously ignite? And Quirrell didn’t think Hagrid could do it.
He knew I was eyeing the Philosopher's Stone and wanted to use this to catch me?
No, if it was really Dumbledore, would this be necessary?
At this moment, Quirrell felt that his head was in a mess.
Then he became enlightened.
Why should we consider these issues?
As long as the sender is caught, it will be fine.
Since the man who claimed to be a teller of all information asked him to bury Galleons under a clearly marked tree near the Forbidden Forest, why didn't he use his plan to catch the other party?
Chirozhen found such a tree in the woods near the school. He buried a bag of stones under the tree and carefully monitored the tree, trying to catch the **** guy.
However, several days passed, and Quirrell never found the mastermind behind the scenes, as if nothing had happened.
Quirrell was extremely angry at being led away by the nose. He replaced the bag of stones with real Galleons, put a fake Galleons in the bag of Galleons, and cast a spell on the fake Galleons and the bag. Tracking magic.
However, Quirrell was surprised to find that the Galleons buried under the tree had not been taken away, but another letter appeared, describing in detail how to get through the devil's net, and how to find the key among the pile of keys. Method.
As for picking locks, sorry, Albert didn’t write about it, and he can’t write it either.
How can you insult Voldemort in a Muggle way?
He still has some professional ethics.
This time, Quirrell used the freezing spell in time to prevent the letter and parchment from burning to ashes.
However, when Quirrell checked it, he found that the letter was not enchanted and would not spontaneously combust.
At this moment, he felt someone punched him in the face, making him dizzy.
After the first letter spontaneously ignited, the sender was sure that he would do that, so he simply stopped casting the spell.
Being fooled by the other party.
Quirrell was so angry that he vomited a mouthful of blood.
"Don't let me know who you are, or I will torture you to death!" Quirrell swore in his heart.
He reenchanted the letter and gave it to the owl controlled by him, hoping to find the person who sent the letter.
As a result, Quirrell discovered that the letter actually flew to an owl postman's shop in Diagon Alley, and then nothing happened.
The **** who played himself is still a mystery.
Albert had already guessed that Quirrell might be tracking him through the letter, so he naturally would not send the letter himself. Instead, he asked a house elf who specifically served him to mail it for him. After the house elf finished sending the letter, he stayed in the manor protected by magic. The owl could not find the house elf at all. Elf.
This house elf was Albert's biggest gain at the last Easter party.
Since the Galleons were buried under the tree, Albert naturally did not dig them up, but placed a spy mouse with double-sided mirrors on its eyes to monitor them.
Through the double-sided mirror in his hand, Albert could clearly see Quirrell burying things twice.
Of course, Albert had no intention of digging up those Galleons before Quirrell completely burped.
If you have him, you will make money. If you don’t have him, you won’t lose. Anyway, the task is completed.
Moreover, by doing so, not only did you complete a new task, but you also triggered a new one: Be Daring.
Not only will you be rewarded with 10,000 experience points, but you can also gain 1 skill point, and it is also easy to complete. As for Quirrell's favorability score of -30, Albert didn't care at all.
After all, Quirrell will get lunch soon, and it doesn’t matter whether his favorability level decreases or not.
“Harry Potter is such a good man!”
Looking at the task panel, Albert couldn't help but sigh softly.
There was a slight mistake in the previous chapter and it has been revised.
