HP solves the mystery

Tom drank red wine elegantly. He looked at the old man opposite who was eating steak and squinted his eyes.

"Isidore Prince?"

Isido swallowed the beef in his mouth and drank a large glass of sherry before he felt better.

"Yes, Mr. Slytherin. I am the current head of the Prince family, Isidore Prince." He wiped the grease off his mouth and answered calmly.

Isidore was looking for traces of Sifu in Central Siberia. As soon as he arrived in Peiping, he was captured by the Chinese Taoist priests who appeared and was escorted to the Special Affairs Office. He flew back to London under the guard of many people.

He thought that he would come back as soon as possible. At least he could sneak back to the manor and wait until he could sort out the affairs at the manor before looking for his grandson. As a result, he was invited to Voldemort's manor by Voldemort's people.

Tom nodded slightly. Even though the old head of the Prince family had stayed in the semi-enclosed manor for more than ten years, he was still so calm now. He was not surprised to see the young and handsome man.

"Can you now use the prescriptions from the Prince family to make people live longer and to enhance magic power?" Tom asked casually, playing with the wine glass.

Isido's expression finally changed, and he drank another glass of sherry before sighing.

"Mr. Slytherin, if that prescription is real, but making it is..." Isidore smiled bitterly, his old face becoming more and more decadent, "If it could be made, I wouldn't be what I am now, and neither would the Prince family. meeting……"

There were tears in his eyes. The Prince family's former glory has long since faded away.

Tom had expected it, but he relaxed after it was confirmed.

"Master Prince, I invite you here because I want to ask you a favor. This thing is very simple. I think you will definitely agree." Tom's tone sounded soft, but in fact it was soft but hard at the same time.

Isido knew that he could no longer hide what he had been hiding for more than ten years, so he could only suppress the irritability in his heart and nodded coldly.

"You are a rare potion master. I would like to invite you to Borneo to explore the beauty of the jungle." Thinking of Slughorn's surrender and the growing potion team, Tom temporarily moved Isidore's position.

Isido nodded, and he was ready to lead a few annoying apprentices, and took out the methods of handling and matching the potion ingredients that he had accumulated. There are many things among them that are his secrets. Is this the result?

Isidore quickly came to his senses and could only smile when he saw Voldemort staring at him.

"With pleasure, Mr. Slytherin." He said in a relaxed tone, and then frowned in distress, "It's just that I went to Borneo, and the potion business that I cooperated with you..."

Of course Tom knew what he was talking about. Prince's subordinates had successfully usurped the throne and were running around in recent months.

However, the people from Prince's branch had little effect on him, and what Gellert was most concerned about was the old man in front of him.

"Don't worry, we only cooperate with the orthodox." Tom made a promise.

Isido didn't know whether to be happy or sad after hearing this. It was good that he had found his grandson, but his grandson obviously didn't want to recognize him, and his great-grandson was still nowhere to be seen.

He sighed, looked at Voldemort with slightly cloudy eyes, and made a deep plea.

"Lord, can you help me find someone?" Isidore has just returned to London. He doesn't know the direction of the situation in recent months. He wants to find his grandson now.

Tom nodded slightly, but froze when he heard his name.

It can't be such a coincidence...

The weather in Peiping in September is cool, and there are many edible fruits and vegetables. After the basilisk passed the clear road in front of Zhang Guanzhu, it no longer ate in secret.

After the basilisk ate the delicacies made by the master of Fengzeyuan, it begged Sif to fill its little cloth bag because it was so delicious.

Sifu patted its head lovingly and went to find Master He with a lot of money.

Master He was shaking the iron pot with his hand, almost leaving an afterimage. He was in pain and happy. His family was in urgent need of money recently, and this extra money came at the right time.

Xifu was hesitant about whether to go to Borneo to look for blood orchids. Guanzhu Zhang said that the basilisk was about to turn into a snake, but he only believed half of it, and the blood orchid was too mysterious.

The basilisk listened half-heartedly. Although it was greedy for blood orchids, it frowned at Sif's confusion and comforted him in return.

[Sev, it doesn’t matter if you don’t eat blood orchid. I think my current condition is very good. 】The basilisk poked Sifu with its tail, who was looking at the sky in a daze, and said nonchalantly.

When Sif came back to his senses, he heard the sound of the basilisk swallowing saliva. He sighed inwardly. The basilisk had never been so persistent on something.

With such tangles and tangles, Sif took the basilisk to play in Peking for three or four days, but still couldn't make a decision. If the blood orchid grows in the place surrounded by pythons in his memory, whether the basilisk can win is a question.

However, the basilisk was very heartless. After it ate the petal, the whole snake became much more excited. It couldn't help but dive into the lake, and it also used the surrounding strange rocks to grind the snake's head.

"Helbo, what's happened to you recently?" Sif asked worriedly, touching the bulge on the basilisk's head.

Although the basilisk is not afraid of water, it does not like water. When it was in London, it would not want to stay in the water all day no matter how hot it was, not to mention it was very cool now.

【I have no idea. I just feel hot. ] The basilisk swung its tail and put its head into the cup full of ice cubes. [My head is itchy and the scales are itchy. Sev, please scratch it for me. 】

Sifu frowned and scratched its scales. After it felt more comfortable, he quickly took the snake to Baiyun Temple.

"It's not a big deal, it's the blood orchid that's working." Zhang Guanzhu looked at the scales of the basilisk and came to a conclusion.

Sif looked at him suspiciously, how could a little bit of blood orchid be so effective?

Zhang Guanzhu narrowed his eyes with a smile at Xifu's eyes.

He stroked his beard and explained, "This is the first time Haierbo has eaten blood orchid. It has replenished its body with energy. It is about to shed its skin. Remember to find a safe and secluded place for it."

Shedding...How long did it take for Haierbo to shed its skin last time?

"If it sheds its skin... it would be better for the snake to return to its original shape, right?" Sifu couldn't help but ask after seeing this.

Guanzhu Zhang nodded and said hesitantly, "The original form will make them feel comfortable and make it easier to absorb energy."

Sif scratched the scales of the basilisk and observed Zhang Guanzhu calmly. The old man first used blood orchids to lure him, and then told him the purpose of the growth place.

If Zhang Guanzhu knew Xifu's inner slander, he would definitely cry out. He really couldn't bear to watch the basilisk die, and the hexagram showed that the key to their team's picking of the blood orchid was Xifu. Wouldn't he just You have to fool around.

"Logically speaking, eating fresh blood orchids would be more effective." A dark light flashed in Zhang Guanzhu's eyes, "If you want Haierbo to feel better, go look for it. Dangerous places are marked on the map. "As he said that, he took out a map and handed it to Sifu.

Xifu did not pick up the map, but stared at Guanzhu Zhang for a long time.

"What do you want from me or Haierbo? Or are you selfless enough to give up your own interests?" Sifu narrowed his eyes, saying that people become better with age, but he didn't believe that the old man was so kind-hearted.

Take the naive Zhang Guozhi as an example. If he hadn't spent a lot of money on previous travels, he would probably not have remembered foreigners like them.

Zhang Guanzhu laughed when he heard this and said casually, "Of course I want Haierbo's snake slough and blood essence. Of course, if you have an egg, can you give me one?"

He really wants these things. Those in China are heavily protected. It would be great if he can get some Maomao, let alone these.

"I can give you half of the snake's slough, and there is no need to talk about the essence and blood." Xifu looked at Zhang Guanzhu with great interest. The snake turned into a dragon, and the shed skin was very strange.

Moreover, what he drew was the blood from his tail, as for essence and blood. This old man wanted to exchange so many things for just one map? Do you think he is stupid?

Zhang Guanzhu nodded disappointedly, but overall he was quite satisfied.

The next day, at an airport in Peiping.

Xifu was in the waiting room and unexpectedly met Zhang Guozhi who said he was going on a business trip.

He looked at the frowning man and asked funnyly, "You mean going on a business trip to shave and get a haircut?"

"Master said that we are familiar with each other, so we don't have to get along. Let me go to Borneo with you to see the world." Zhang Guozhi scratched his face uncomfortably. It was hard to disobey the master's orders. He also wanted to lie on the rocking chair and bask in the sun.

Xifu nodded helplessly. He was confident about the trip to the jungle because of the basilisk. He just didn't know if Zhang Guozhi had any back-ups, and Zhang Guanzhu seemed to be very optimistic about this operation.

"Okay, don't stay too far away from me then." He had a good impression of this naive young man. Of course, there was also the reason why he was Zhang Mingyuan's nephew.

Zhang Guozhi nodded happily. For this trip, the master gave him all his life-saving magic weapons.

At night, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and soon it started to rain heavily.

Isido looked at the gloomy sky and couldn't help but feel irritable.

"Pay attention to the route and follow the route we provide." Isidore looked at the map with his eyes flashing. The wind and rain coupled with the rising water of the Man River had a great impact on the Muggle driver.

Hearing this, Captain Jack closed his eyes and wanted to say something about docking to rest, and silently walked towards the cockpit.

Tom stood in front of the deck, staring at the screaming birds under the thunderstorm with one black eye and one red eye, as if the heavy rain around him could not distract him at all.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and the rain was getting heavier. The crew relied on the light of the headlights to barely see the way forward.

"Mr. Prince, it will be dangerous to continue sailing. I request to dock for rest!" Captain Jack covered his hat and shouted in the rain.

As his words fell, a muffled thunder exploded not far away, some fires lit up in the dark night, and the forest there was ignited by lightning.

Isido looked at Captain Jack with a tired face and nodded in agreement. When he arrived at the next pier, he stopped the boat to rest.

Captain Jack breathed a sigh of relief and turned to tell the sailors the good news.

"Lord, I don't understand..." Isidor walked up to Tom, without an umbrella in his hand, and his clothes were not stained by any rain. "We are wizards, why should we choose the Muggle way to come to Borneo."

Tom looked at Nagini swimming with the boat and frowned slightly.

"Master Prince, I have my own intentions." He said calmly, with a gentle tone.

The place of Borneo is too mysterious. If the identity of the wizard is revealed, there may be greater trouble. What's more, the information Gellert provided is too coincidental, and he had no intention of coming.

But he had a premonition that he would find something important here, and that the blood orchid would also be good for Nagini, so he set out to come here.

Even though he and Isidor were the only ones on the boat, there were actually several house elves invisible and protecting them, not to mention several wizards hiding behind them.

While Tom was thinking, a heavy crashing sound came from the hull of the boat. One fish jumped up high, and then fell heavily as the boat sailed quickly.

Those fish were as long as his arm, black and ugly, but their mouths were full of fangs, and they were not docile at first glance.

Isidore thought of the news revealed by the Malfoy family, and sighed helplessly, but the moment his eyes came into contact with the fish, his relaxed brows frowned.

"Lord, this fish seems to be the piranha mentioned in the information." He took out the photo and compared it. This fish is a ferocious fish that can swallow crocodiles alive.

Tom glanced at Isido and summoned the playful Nagini back. Although crocodiles and piranhas would become its food, those things were not tasty and contained bacteria, so they would not spoil the stomach.

After being cleaned by the invisible house elf, Nagini returned to Tom's body. It became an arm and was wrapped firmly around his shoulders.

[Hiss, Tom, what are we here for? 】 Nagini spit out the letter, this place is many times bigger than Voldemort's manor, but it doesn't like the smell in the air.

Tom ignored Isido's surprised look, touched its little head and said, "I'll find something delicious for you, and see if I can use it." 】

In fact, he was very excited about the experiments with blood orchids in Gellert's information. If they could be neutralized and used on humans, the iron walls and immortality evolved by snakes would appear on humans.

After hearing this, Nagini flicked his tail in boredom. In his mind, the food Tom gave him was only that kind of food. It was when he was with Sev and the others that the food was rich and delicious.

When he thought of Sif, he thought of Haierbo, who had agreed to take him to the Forbidden Forest to play, but it had been more than half a year since he had seen the snake's shadow.

[Where did Tom, Sif and Helbo go? Nagini missed them a little. 】It looked at Tom and said.

Tom smiled, but he felt very bitter in his heart. Everyone knew everything about him and Sif, and they could only fumble through the intermittent memories.

Isidore looked at Tom who was walking towards the cabin with a somewhat complicated expression.

If his grandson is really with him, then who does he think he is? Is Prince's main branch really going to be cut off with him?

"Aqiu," Xifu sneezed as he was eating in the hotel. I don't know whether they were lucky or unlucky, but it started raining heavily not long after they got off the plane.

Zhang Guozhi drank a cup of sweet cocoa and saw Sifu wiping his nose and joked, "A sneeze means someone is thinking about you, Mr. Snape. It's not your brother who is thinking about you, right?"

Sif thought about Tom returning to the magical world, and shook his head with a lonely expression.
