Hill led the people into the forest, followed the Auror who was waiting for them outside the forest to the depths of the forest, and then saw several Aurors surrounding two people asking questions, but one of them closed his eyes Lying on the ground, obviously injured and unconscious.

"Mr. Hill is here!"

I don't know who saw them yelling, and the noisy scene suddenly became quiet.

You must know that Hill is quite well-known in the Auror world. Let alone how much he served as the main member of the Order of the Phoenix in the previous war, even after the war ended, he also solved many cases. It's not an exaggeration to be called a "superior detective".

"What have you found?"

While talking, Hill took over the information recorded by the person who was in charge of recording before and looked at it.

"Just started asking questions, and haven't asked anything useful yet, but I can already confirm that it was done by the Death Eaters."

"why?"

"Look at the sky over there."

Hill looked towards the sky in the direction that the Auror pointed, and saw a Dark Mark floating above the forest.

It was a gigantic skull, composed of countless green star-like things, and a large boa constrictor protruded from the skull's mouth like a tongue.

Just looking at it like that makes people feel creepy, making Hill feel that his whole body is covered with goose bumps.

After seeing that mark, everyone's faces became very ugly.

"This group of damned Death Eaters, are they all rats? How can you catch them all?"

Arthur looked at the Dark Mark and was also very scared. The terror Voldemort caused to the wizarding world is not so easy to eliminate.But Arthur still held back and cursed a few words in a low voice, as if that would stop his fear and give him courage.

"Are those two over there the same two people who met the Death Eaters at that time? How are they doing now, can I ask questions?"

"It's the two people over there, but one of them was injured and passed out when we arrived. The other was obviously frightened, but we've given him the potion, and he's much calmer now , you can ask questions directly. But which one of the unconscious ones is too seriously injured, maybe you have to send St. Mungo."

"Okay, I know."

Hill asked the others who followed them to go to other places to find other evidence and clues, while he took Arthur Weasley to question.

The others glanced at Hill at the same time and then left. Although they were very sympathetic to the team leader for taking such a trouble, it didn't mean they were willing to take over that trouble, so let's go quickly!

Leader, Merlin will protect you.

"Is this the guy from the potion shop who first met those two Death Eaters?"

"Yes, Mr. Hill, his name is Pete. According to what he said, he has worked in that potion shop for two years, and during these two years he would come here to collect medicines every day."

"Okay, I see! You go to work first! I'm calling you if I have something to do!"

Hill took Arthur up to Pete, and looked at the man carefully.Pete is a handsome boy, he is 20 years old, it seems that he should have worked in the potion shop after graduating from Hogwarts.He has brown shattered hair and is very thin. Sitting on the ground, he looks even thinner.Now he's holding a cup of hot chocolate and sipping it.

And beside him lay a young man, the wizard robe on his body was scratched many times by the curse, and he could no longer see the original appearance. Although a doctor was casting a healing spell on him next to him, he was still There are many cuts bleeding, it seems to be wounded by black magic.Blonde hair, very handsome, but his face is very pale, which should be the reason for excessive blood loss.

"I'm Wright Hill, the deputy director of the Auror Division, and the leader of the second operation team. I'm in charge of this case, and you can call me Hill. Now can you explain to me the situation at that time in detail? ?”

Hill sat down opposite Pete, and Arthur sat down next to him, took out the quill and parchment, and cast a spell on the quill. This time he was in charge of recording.

"Okay - okay!"

Pete seemed to remember something terrible, he shook his body, took a sip of hot chocolate, and then spoke about the incident at that time.

"I work in a potion shop, and I am responsible for collecting potion materials on weekdays. This forest is the place I visit most often, because few people come back here, so there are many precious potion materials."

"Mr. Pete, can you tell us about what happened at that time? What we want to know is how you met those two Death Eaters. We are not interested in your experience of collecting herbs."

Arthur heard that Pete hadn't talked about the Death Eaters so far, so he interrupted Pete impatiently.

"Okay - okay, early this morning, I came to the forest very early like usual. Because there are a lot of potion ingredients, they must be picked at a specific time to work. I have been They all come here to collect herbs, so they have a very good understanding of the forest situation, in the forest—"

"Mr. Pete, I repeat, it's the Death Eaters we want to know about, the Death Eaters! Not you, do you understand?"

Arthur's sudden fretful questioning startled Pete, causing him to shudder, knock over the hot chocolate in his hand, and almost jump from the ground.

"Okay, Arthur! Shut up! Mr. Pete, you slowly say don't worry, and give Mr. Pete a cup of hot chocolate!"

There is such a benefit in being a wizard. Although it is in the big forest, no matter what you want, someone will apparate for you soon.

"Yes—yes! Because there are several potion ingredients that must be picked at the moment the sun rises, so early in the morning, I came to the depths of the forest, waiting for the sun to rise to collect the medicine But at this moment, I suddenly heard a rustling sound. It was the sound of clothes rubbing against the grass. In this forest, except for those who came here specially for training, few people would come here. And even if someone came , and will not enter the depths of the forest on the first day, it is very dangerous here, and I dared to come here after two years of continuous exploration. But a few days ago when I was collecting herbs, I only found this A person who came here to experience, heard from him that he did not intend to enter the depths of the forest. So out of curiosity, I went to the place where the sound was made, wanting to have a look. But who knew, I actually found the Death Eater only!"

Speaking of this, Pete seemed to recall the terrifying situation at that time, and even his voice suddenly became louder, his body trembling uncontrollably, as if he was going to scream loudly at any time.

"Okay, it's all right! They have all escaped, and they are very safe now, all right."

Under the comfort of Hill, Pete calmed down slowly, and the Auror on the side fed him a bottle of potion, so that he could slowly tell the situation at that time again.

"At that time, they were heading towards the deepest part of the forest. Even I didn't dare to enter that place. It was very dangerous. When I saw their outfits, I was shocked. I accidentally yelled and was caught They found out. When they saw me, they wanted to kill me, and immediately attacked me. Fortunately, I was still some distance away from them at that time, and the trees in the depths of the forest were very dense, and I was able to escape their attack at the beginning by virtue of my familiarity with the terrain here, and I wanted to escape to the outskirts of the forest."

Speaking of which, Pete took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and then continued: "I saw this man on the outskirts of the forest a few days ago, and I knew he would stay here for a few more days. The attack of the Death Eaters I can't Apparate at all, so I can only escape with my legs and my knowledge of the terrain. Merlin, please, and finally didn't let the Death Eaters kill me when I saw him."

Hill pointed to the unconscious man beside him.

"So do you know this man's name? You knew each other before?"

"I don't know him. I just met him when I was collecting herbs and said a few words. I don't know his name. Those two Death Eaters didn't seem to think that there were other people in this forest." , so when we saw him just now, the two Death Eaters were obviously stunned for a moment, which allowed the two of us to seize the opportunity. But even this swallow, we couldn't beat them. In the end, this person was injured desperately, Ripped off the hood and mask of one of the Death Eaters. Then—”

"Wait—you said, you once ripped off one of the Death Eaters' hats and masks, so did you see what that Death Eater looked like?"

Hearing Hill's question, the eyes of all the people present lit up.

"I—I didn't see it, because I was behind that Death Eater at the time, and I was attacked by another Death Eater at the time, so I didn't have the experience to see it."

Pete's words made everyone present feel very disappointed.

Although there is Compound Potion in the wizarding world, the two Death Eaters wore masks, which were obviously used to hide their appearance, so their appearance should be their original appearance. If you know who they are, you want to arrest them It will be much easier too.

Such a good opportunity was just lost.

Arthur was even more angry when he heard Pete's words.

"The masks are all ripped off, how could you not see them clearly. You must be lying, in fact, you are also a Death Eater, right? Then the two are your accomplices, in fact, you are staying here on purpose to mislead Ours! It must be like this. Tell me, your accomplices are all there now, and you still have a few accomplices. If you don’t say anything else, I’m going to feed you Veritaserum!"
