  Chapter 1168 Fighting wits and courage

   While several people were discussing in low voices, Lupine, who was standing by the window and using a telescope to observe the street outside, suddenly reminded his companions sharply: "The target has appeared, but... I didn't see the pursuer."

   After speaking, Lupine handed the telescope to Arthur, and quickly turned his head to look at the large looking glass on the table.

  The black magic detector did not respond.

  In fact, Sirius also looked down at the detection pocket watch in his hand almost at the same time, but there was also no reaction, only the furtive figure in the demon mirror by the wall seemed to have some reaction.

   Sirius and Lupine exchanged a quick glance.

   Could it be that the Death Eaters were not followed by anyone at all, or that there were no so-called stalkers from the beginning to the end?

  Those are just things they imagined?

   "How likely is it that Kenneth is controlled by the Imperius Curse?"

  Sirius went to the window, took the telescope from Arthur, and looked at Kenneth who was carrying a suitcase and walking towards the residence of "Albert".

"Impossible, the Ministry of Magic has been watching him all the time, and this person is not the same person as the one who delivered the goods to Zuko last time." Arthur looked at Kenneth's back and explained to the two: "In order to prevent accidents during the period, the current Kenneth is actually Kingsley's disguise. He also took Felicia, which is enough to deal with any accidents that will happen within half an hour."

   "I think the Muggles over there are suspicious."

  Sirius noticed Kingsley's actions, moved the binoculars to the middle-aged man who just got off the car, frowned slightly and said, "Do you think that guy is a stalker?"

"If the Death Eaters were disguised as Muggles, they should be detected." Lupine looked sideways at the looking glass, and then looked at the Marauder's Map in his hand. There were no strange names on it, and all signs indicated that That's just a normal Muggle.

   What's more, they didn't think that the Death Eaters used compound potions to disguise themselves and could escape the detection of the detectors.

   “The looking glass might be a problem too,” Arthur said.

"I don't know, but I think it's impossible for other black magic detectors to make mistakes together." Anyway, Sirius felt that the passer-by was suspicious, so he muttered softly, "Kingsley's intuition should be quite sharp after taking Felicia. The action must be because I felt that I was being watched by something, so I looked around subconsciously... Could the Muggles be controlled by the Imperius Curse?"

   "By the way, why did I forget this thing."

  Sirius took out a bottle of potion from his pocket, opened the seal and poured it into his mouth, using the effect of the potion to quickly clarify his thoughts.

"If the Death Eaters have confirmed that Albert is hiding in this village, then all they have to do is find out the exact location of Albert. When they know that the people from the Ministry of Magic are staring at Kenneth, they will definitely Avoid confrontation with us as much as possible, and first find out where Albert is hiding."

"Remus, you are in charge of keeping an eye on the Muggle, and Arthur is in charge of monitoring the surroundings. I will contact Kingsley right away to see what he finds." Sirius quickly made a series of arrangements, and entered the house Kingsley delivered the message.

   "Come on, just now Kingsley also felt that he was being watched." Sirius said quickly.

   "We're watching him."

   "No, Kingsley suspects that the Death Eaters are nearby, and he also thinks there might be something wrong with that Muggle." Sirius corrected.

   "Should we let the Ministry of Magic catch that Muggle?" Arthur asked.

   "No, I think he should be let go. Only then will the Death Eaters know the exact location of Albert." Sirius shook his head and said, "Maybe, they will come here tonight."

   "If I were a Death Eater, I would definitely do something to attract the attention of the Ministry of Magic, and then sneak up to attack Albert."

   "The effect of the intelligence enhancer is even better than expected!"

  Lupine also began to think about whether he should carry some potions with him in the future. Judging by Sirius' clear thinking, it was obviously the magical effect of potions.

   "The effect is really good, and the thinking is smooth."

   Sirius really didn't think about the efficacy of these potions before. Since Albert let Harry take the potion before the trial court last year, everyone seemed to have opened the door to a new world.

   Just as Sirius guessed, the middle-aged Muggle who passed by "Albert"'s house just now was indeed controlled by someone using the Imperius Curse.

   However, even with the help of intelligence enhancers, Sirius still failed to figure out the truth of the whole matter.

   This matter was actually arranged by Albert a few days ago.

   No matter how idiotic the Death Eaters were, they would learn their lesson. With the so-called "bait" of Kenneth, it was naturally impossible to attract Bella to take the bait, but it didn't mean that Albert had no other way.

Since the last time Kenneth went to deliver goods to Zuko, Albert, with the cooperation of Zuko and Alecto Caro, successfully convinced Bella that they had used Veritaserum and got it from Kenneth. Where Albert might be hiding.

  As for why it is possible?

That's because Alecto Caro claimed to Bella that due to the magical contract, even if he gave Kenneth Veritaserum, he still couldn't let him leak the news about Albert. Obviously, the other party had been prepared for a long time, but It doesn't mean that they can't find the specific location, she has already left a tracking mark on Kenneth, so that they can follow up Kenneth's whereabouts.

  As for why not directly use the Imperius Curse to control Kenneth, it is naturally to prevent the Mudblood from seeing his flaws. Albert is undoubtedly a very keen guy. Once he notices something is wrong, he will definitely disappear again. When the news is cut off, it will be difficult to find other clues.

In fact, the whole plan was quite successful, the only troublesome thing is that it is not every day to deliver goods to Zuko, and Kenneth has been staying at home, surrounded by people from the Ministry of Magic. Bella never found the right opportunity to recapture Kenneth for interrogation.

It doesn't really matter whether Kenneth is tortured or not, what matters is the whereabouts of which Mudblood, so they can only wait patiently for Kenneth to "get the goods" again, and then send them to Zuko, and the place to pick up the goods is their goal .

  However, according to the news from the Ministry of Magic, Kenneth's move was watched all the time, and the Ministry of Magic seemed to intend to continue using him as a bait to lure them into the bait.

   This news almost made Bella's nose crooked, because the actions of the Ministry of Magic directly regarded them as fools.

   "Do they still expect some idiots to be fooled by this?" Bella wished to kill all those who stood in his way.

   "We need someone to help us find the way. It's best not to attract the attention of the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic." Alecto Carlo looked at the village not far away and suggested to Bella.

   This is completely nonsense, because they didn't find any other helpers at all. There are only Bella, Alecto Caro and Narcissa Malfoy here. They have locked the village where Albert may be hiding through tracking magic.

"Perhaps, we can use the Fiercefire Curse to burn down this village and force that mudblood out." Bella's eyes were full of anger. The successive setbacks made her lose her patience. She thought she could kill the mudblood easily, but in the end I found that I couldn't find the other party's whereabouts at all.

  Bella's promise to Voldemort was almost becoming a laughing stock, which made her very upset. He didn't want to disappoint the Dark Lord.

  So, that Mudblood must die.

   "That just scares people away."

  Narcissa Malfoy felt that Bella must be crazy to think of such an unreliable method.

  If possible, she doesn't want to be an enemy of Albert at all. Such a guy is really terrible.

   Narcissa Malfoy now only wants to live with her husband and son, but this has almost become the most extravagant wish.

   "Narcissa, what do you think we should do." Bella looked at her sister anxiously.

"Perhaps, we should really...find a cannon fodder." Narcissa Malfoy looked at the Muggle car driving towards this direction, she thought of a brilliant idea, and briefly described it to the other two, and soon got the idea Others agreed, and soon the unlucky Mr. Muggle was controlled by the Imperius Curse and asked to go to the village.

  After the middle-aged Muggle left the village, Bella couldn't wait to use Legilimency to peek into his memory and use it to find Albert's possible hiding place.

  After Bella used Avada Kedavra to send the other party to see God, she excitedly announced her decision: "We plan to act at 3 o'clock in the morning tonight, and this time we must kill that Mudblood."

   "Bella, do you think the whole process is too smooth, don't forget that Mudblood can predict the future." Narcissa Malfoy was still a little worried, "Could this be a trap too?"

   "There are so many traps." Bella said sharply, "Narcissa, when did you become so timid."

"If we don't track them, they'll have to wait. Besides, I don't believe he can predict everything, otherwise he wouldn't have people deliver to that store. I don't know that the owner named Zuko has already It's under our control."

"However, he can predict the future, and he may also predict our next actions." Narcissa argued that her husband, Lucius, fell like this. Even though they still left behind, they still entered Ah Zkaban.

"Ahem, I think the chances of catching that Mudblood are slim." Alecto Caro began to express his guess, "I think the ones hiding somewhere are probably those two from the Weasley family. Cub."

   "Even if it wasn't that Mudblood, I would have pried out the news from them." Bella said murderously, and she suddenly felt that Alecto's guess was probably right.

   "I think you need more help." Narcissa didn't like reckless actions, but she still suggested, "That mudblood is quite cunning, we can't rule out this as a trap."

   "Narcisha is right, we are facing a cunning and dangerous guy, we must be prepared to be a trap." Alecto nodded, "Don't forget the painful lesson of others."

  However, Bella and his group didn't know that they had been seen through.

The group of Sirius who had just used the intelligence enhancer discussed this matter carefully. They agreed that there was something wrong with the Muggle, and the reason was very simple. When the middle-aged Muggle left the car from the other side of the village In the village, this matter is very suspicious no matter how you look at it. At least Arthur, who once owned a car, has a good say in this regard.

   "Maybe, we might be wasting our time."

At the combat meeting of the Ministry of Magic, Kingsley said to the Minister of Magic and the director of the Auror Office, "But the worst case is just staying up all night, which will not cause us much loss, not to mention that we have found evidence that we have succeeded. The probability is high."

   "Are you referring to the unreasonable behavior of that middle-aged Muggle?" Gadwin muttered, Kingsley made him feel threatened, and there was no doubt that the other party was more suitable for the position of head of the Auror office than him.

   "Very well, Kingsley is right, even if we fail, we have nothing to lose." Scrimgeour interrupted.

"I suspect that the Death Eaters are likely to create trouble for us to divert our focus." Kingsley ignored Gadwin's words and continued, "I suggest that we better take precautions in advance to prevent when the time comes." In a hurry."

   "Gardwin, I need you to keep the most elite Aurors. Once Kingsley's prediction happens, you will probably need to lead some Aurors and the crisis response team to deal with it."

   "I see." Gadwin nodded.

"Very good. Those who participated in tonight's operation will stay to attend the lecture." Scrimgeour quickly arranged the matter. He was never worried about the failure of the plan, since Albert planned to use the Ministry of Magic to target him The group of dark wizards in the city must have predicted the whole plan long ago.
