Drinking black tea calmly at Hogwarts

In a room in the Pig's Head, Zhang Xu, Scrimgeour, Neville's father, Mr. Longbottom, Cedric, and Percy Weasley gathered around a table.

These five people were concentrating on studying a piece or lump of silver-white metal objects on the table.

At this time, Cedric was explaining the origin of this metal object to Zhang Xu who had just arrived.

"This morning, an observation post on the top of the northern mountain was attacked by more than a dozen Death Eaters. At that time, the personnel inside the observation post made a symbolic resistance and retreated after wounding a few Death Eaters."

Cedric took a deep look at Zhang Xu, and then continued: "About half an hour later, a violent explosion occurred on the top of the observation post. Within the bounds of Hogsmeade village."

"I buried the explosives." Zhang Xu admitted decisively. Everyone in the headquarters knew that he was there at the time. "Could it be that falling rocks damaged the house? You should claim compensation from me."

"Ahem" Cedric coughed twice and said, "Actually, your house on the mountainside was the most damaged."

Then Percy, the tenant of the house, gave the stunned Zhang Xu a sideways look, and said, "If we didn't know that the explosion was caused by you, we wouldn't have rushed to repair the smashed house just now."

"Let's get down to business." Cedric continued, "Just after the battle, when the residents on the side of Hogsmeade's backing mountain began to clean up the stones that fell from the mountain, they found this piece of metal that fell together with the gravel. .”

Zhang Xu moved closer to the metal bump on the table and observed it carefully.

"This seems to be a cylindrical object, but judging from its current appearance, it seems to have been hit hard." Zhang Xu said while observing.

"When it fell from a high altitude, it stuck on the stone road, and then it was hit by other falling stones. It was found under a large piece of rubble," Cedric said.

"Have you tried to fix it?" Zhang Xu asked.

"No spells will work on it," Cedric replied, "you might as well try."

Zhang Xu didn't try it, and he probably couldn't do it if others couldn't.

"I think it turned out to be a metal arm." Zhang Xu finally concluded, "Everyone, look at the end that was originally inserted into the ground. The layout of these five severely distorted parts matches the five fingers of a human palm. Then The part that comes down is a lot like the palm and wrist."

Several other people glanced at each other and then nodded. They obviously agreed with Zhang Xu's opinion.

Scrimgeour asked, "So, do you know which Death Eater this metal arm belongs to?"

They knew that Zhang Xu had a lot of information about the Death Eaters, so they called him in for help.

Zhang Xu thought for a while, and then a name popped out of his mouth: "Igor Karkaroff."

"According to reliable information, before the mysterious man lost power 16 years ago, he made a plan to control Durmstrang and Beauxbatons."

"The mysterious man plans to send Death Eaters whose identities have been washed clean to enter these two magic schools, and then wait for an opportunity to become the principals of these two schools. Ultimately, these two schools will become a bridgehead for attacking the European continent."

"After the mysterious man disappeared, Karkaroff still faithfully carried out the plan, and finally he became the headmaster of Durmstrang."

"As for Beauxbatons, the Death Eaters who were sent there quickly disappeared due to the presence of Nicolas May."

p;"In the summer of 1995, in order to prepare to restore the magic of the body, the mysterious man had to expose Karkaroff to capture Harry. Later Karkaroff sacrificed his arm in this magic ceremony."

"After the mysterious man regained his body and strength, he gave Karkaroff a metal arm."

After Zhang Xu finished telling the information he knew, several people present fell into thinking again.

"Then is there any evidence that this metal arm belongs to Karkaroff?" Mr. Longbottom asked.

"We can look for blood and other debris at the connection." Percy said, pointing to the place where the stone was crushed. "Then we can try it with Polyjuice Potion."

Everyone felt that Percy's method was feasible, and after using many methods, they finally found some human body debris from it.

Not long after, a cup of compound decoction filled with human body debris was placed on the table, and then everyone turned their attention to Cedric, who had the lowest position in the room.

Cedric: ΣД; flustered; д

With the enthusiastic help of Zhang Xu and Percy, Cedric drank the cup of compound soup in one gulp.

"It seems that Karkaroff is right." Scrimgeour said, looking at Cedric Karkaroff, who had not spoken much.

"Can you confirm that Karkaroff and the others are all dead?" Zhang Xu asked.

"Because the explosion may be violent, and the explosion site is located on the top of the mountain, the corpses are distributed in a wide range, so it is very difficult to search for the dead bodies." Mr. Longbottom said.

Now Zhang is laughing wildly in his heart. When Karkaroff dragged him off the train like a dead dog, he wrote down the name of this guy in the little black book.At present, it seems that Karkaroff took a dirt plane and turned into a goddess, which is really revenge.

"Based on my judgment, Karkaroff's immortality is about the same," Scrimgeour said.

"We already know that Karkaroff has a high status among the Death Eaters. He is likely to be the commander-in-chief of today's offensive. This can explain why he went to the top of the mountain. It is indeed an observation battlefield Great place to fight with command."

"After the explosion, the command of the attacking Death Eaters obviously lacked flexibility and coordination. They were more like acting according to a predetermined plan."

"Not long after the battle reached its peak, the Death Eaters were suddenly defeated. At that time, we thought they had some kind of conspiracy."

"If Karkaroff, the Commander-in-Chief of the Death Eaters, died in the explosion, then everything would make sense."

The more Scrimgeour talked, the more excited he became. It could be seen that he still attached great importance to the achievement of killing Karkaroff and repelling the Death Eaters' attack today.

At this time Zhang Xu suddenly said: "When you report the killing of Karkaroff, you should say that Harry Potter did it. Don't drag me into it."

"Why?" Scrimgeour looked at Zhang Xu suspiciously, "Why don't you want this honor?"

"Material rewards can be given to me, and spiritual rewards can be given directly to Harry Potter. He should also appear in front of the public shiningly." Zhang Xu said, "I think the Ministry of Magic will carry out a series of publicity campaigns next. Naturally, promoting Harry Potter is more inspiring than promoting me at this time."

Scrimgeour and Mr. Longbottom looked at Zhang Xu in disbelief. What kind of spirit is this kind of spirit of giving away their achievements to friends for free.

On the other hand, Percy and Cedric looked at Zhang Xu with a full face, and they could tell the other two leaders responsibly that this was the spirit of throwing the blame away.
