The Wind and the Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

When Mrs. Zabini and Mr. Greengrass also apparated away, Medea in the painting gradually became transparent until she disappeared.

The king's portraits also returned to their original positions.

After watching this section, Scott played back the surveillance videos from other places, but found no other clues.

He turned off the video and clicked on the real-time monitoring.

At this time, the old palace was very busy, and a group of Muggle tourists were visiting.

Scott stared at the king's portrait for a while, but couldn't see any clues.

He originally thought that the reason why all members of the coven were haunting Edinburgh was because Medea had woken up.

He thought that maybe he could tell where Medea was hiding based on the actions of these people.

But Medea only appears in the painting.

Scott had no way of judging whether she separated a piece of consciousness and hid it in the painting before falling asleep, or whether her true body had already woken up.

Of course, I'm afraid it's impossible to find Medea's real location through surveillance.

Scott clicked with his fingers to cut out the footage from the surveillance video and edit it together, then sent it to Dumbledore's [Magic Phone].

After that, he opened the video of the Triwizard Tournament, opened his sketchbook, picked up a pencil, and began to design cartoon images of the three warriors, including himself.

After randomly drawing a few heads, he decided to use the Disney style that Eddie had mentioned.

After drawing a sketch of the avatar, he intercepted a few highlights from the game video and prepared to draw some bust and full-length portraits as a reference.

Of course, he didn't plan to draw it exactly as it looked in the video, but deliberately exaggerated the characters' movements and expressions.

After the sketches were completed, he imported the drawings into the [Magic Mirror] and sent them to Eddie.

Eddie's reply was prompt.

[Good job, Scott. ]

[Our products will definitely sell well. ]

[I hope you can draw more, preferably enough for a picture album. ]

[Of course, remember to finish them well and color them beautifully. ]

He sent several messages in a very short period of time and seemed like he couldn't wait any longer.

[receive. ]

Scott simply replied.

Just then, Dumbledore's message came.

"Good afternoon, Professor."

Scott put the [Magic Mirror] up and leaned it against the bookshelf.

"Good afternoon, Scott, are you in the dormitory?" Dumbledore asked.

Scott nodded, "Yes, but it doesn't matter, my roommates are all going out on dates."

Dumbledore smiled and said: "Oh, Scott, you should also spend more time enjoying your youth like them."

"Professor," Scott said, "you know what I need to face in the future."

Dumbledore said: "I know, but I don't think it should be a burden on you. Listen, kid, your sixteenth year is about to pass, and it won't come back again."

"Let's talk about what happened in Edinburgh last night, Professor." Scott changed the subject.

"Oh..." Dumbledore smiled helplessly, "Okay."

Scott asked, "Do you think Medea was really hiding in Edinburgh? Maybe she just left a magical portrait there that she could communicate with."

"I don't know, that's a hard question," said Dumbledore, "unless I go there myself, and oh, I will."

"Professor?" Scott was a little surprised.

At the same time, he was also worried about whether Dumbledore would alert others in the past.

If Medea ran away again and hid somewhere else, it would be difficult for them to find her again.

Dumbledore seemed to know what he was thinking, and directly stated his plan, "Don't worry, I will take polyjuice potion and then sneak into the Muggle tour group during the day."

"This is definitely a good idea!" Scott's eyes lit up.

Edin Castle is a fairly popular tourist attraction. People come and go during the day. Although it can serve as a cover for Medea's hiding, the same applies to Dumbledore's exploration.

If Medea didn't want to attract attention, she would never reveal her magical means during the day and let rumors of supernatural events appear there.

But what he didn't expect was that Dumbledore would actually go investigate in person.

"Thank you, Professor." He thanked him solemnly.

Dumbledore said: "You're welcome, it's not just because of you. Ms. Slytherin is also a destabilizing factor for the British wizarding community."

Scott nodded, and then said hesitantly: "About Mrs. Zabini's goal... I'm not sure whether to tell Milton and his father."

"Don't ask me for advice, Scott. Follow your heart."

Dumbledore said softly.

"But I can tell you that Mr. Graves has contacted me before."

Scott quickly asked, "In other words, what he said to Milton is true? Does he really want to leave the Guild?"

Dumbledore nodded slightly.

"Yes, if you trust my judgment."

"That's good."

Scott couldn't help but be happy for Milton.

"Now that you have been in contact with Mr. Graves, I will no longer attempt to contact him."

Having too many contacts is not a good thing and will actually increase the risk of exposure.

After ending the call with Dumbledore, Scott contacted Rimbaud again.

"The crows have only followed him for one day and found nothing unusual." Rumple said.

It refers to the mission to investigate Mr. Graves.

Scott said: "The mission is canceled, I have got the answer."

"What happened?" Rumple asked in surprise.

Scott briefly explained the reason, he believed in Dumbledore's judgment.

"So that's it."

Rumple was still a little disappointed, like a child who lost his favorite toy.

"Is there anything else I need to do?" it asked, "I'm too bored."

"Yes." Scott said.

Rumple immediately flapped his wings excitedly, "Hurry up!"

"It's still an investigation mission." Scott said, "Try to let the crows find the traces of the Death Eaters and Voldemort."

This is what he promised Dumbledore to help.

Dumbledore took the initiative to plan to search Edinburgh Castle, and he couldn't do nothing.

"Make sure to complete the mission." Rumple said excitedly.

"Be careful." Scott reminded, "Let the crows spread out to find, you don't have to go to dangerous places."

Rumple agreed.

Although it is the "King of Crows", it does not feel sorry for the possible sacrifices of the crows.

After all, it thinks it is a magical raven, and it is different from those crows.

"Report to me immediately if you find any suspicious places." Scott said again.

"I know."

After the call ended, Scott began to continue drawing cartoon images of the warriors.

In the next few days, there was no new progress in the monitoring of Edinburgh Castle or the search for Death Eaters.

But Scott was not in a hurry, and finally completed a series of cartoon images.

After these paintings were completed, they were imported into the [Magic Mirror] and sent to Eddie.

[Great, George and I will speed up! ]

[By the way, don't forget the post-production of the video! ]

After Eddie replied to two messages, there was no news, obviously he was busy making money.

Scott didn't care, and used his free time to organize the videos of the first two rounds of the game.

Two days later, Dumbledore called Scott to his room.

Dumbledore told him that he had visited Edinburgh Castle once.

Scott was very calm after hearing the news.

Although he didn't know when Dumbledore went there, and he didn't recognize him in the surveillance video.

He didn't speak, but sat and waited for the next words.

Dumbledore said: "After investigation, I judged that Ms. Slytherin was indeed hiding in that castle."

Then, he patiently explained his basis.

He focused on the portrait of the Scottish kings of all dynasties, and finally believed that Medea hidden in the painting was not an ordinary magical portrait, but a wisp of consciousness connected to the body.

In this case, Medea's body must be not far away.

"Can you find her?" Scott asked.

"It's difficult." Dumbledore said. "Since the last time the castle was occupied, the hidden magic in it has disappeared on the surface. Since I haven't been able to investigate further, I haven't found any clues for the time being."

"In this case..."

If you want to find Medea, there is only one way -

Search carefully with magic inch by inch.

But there are many Muggles there during the day, and it is easy to be discovered at night, so it is not convenient to use this method to find her.

"That's good." Scott said calmly, "At least now we can grasp her movements."

Dumbledore said: "I'm glad you can be so calm. Of course, I will think of a way."

"Then I'll leave it to you."

At the same time, Scott also told Dumbledore that he was trying to find the traces of Voldemort and the Death Eaters, but he had not found anything yet.

Dumbledore was not in a hurry about this.

He said: "You should know the current situation of the British wizarding world."

Scott nodded.

"There is a shortage of personnel. There are not many Aurors who can fight against dark wizards. They need to maintain the peace of the wizarding world. In addition to the burden of Azkaban, I am afraid they don't have much spare energy to fight those Death Eaters."

"You see it very clearly." Dumbledore sighed, "Although it is helpless, I have to say that now is not a good time to fight Voldemort."

Scott said: "But the replenishment of combatants is a very difficult thing, and it cannot be solved in a short time."

Dumbledore said: "After Ms. Burns successfully reforms Azkaban, some manpower will be freed up."

Speaking of the transformation of Azkaban, Scott was a little indifferent.

Maybe his expression gave away something, and Dumbledore saw it.

"Have you heard about Ms. Burns's transformation plan?" Dumbledore smiled slightly, "It seems you have a different opinion."

Scott told the truth, "Everyone should know that unless you, the professor, personally guard Azkaban, no matter how you arrange it, you can't stop Voldemort's invasion."

"You're wrong." Dumbledore said, "Even I am not 100% sure that I can stop him."

Scott was a little stunned.

Dumbledore laughed again, "Are you surprised? Although I am given the hope of the people, I am just a mortal, and I am already very old."

Scott smiled awkwardly.

He did not think that Dumbledore's fighting ability would decline due to his age.

Although his physical strength may not be as good as when he was young, for a wizard of Dumbledore's level, his magic power will not decline with age.

On the contrary, he has more experience than when he was young, and his control of magic is more perfect.

In addition, he has the Elder Wand in his hand...

Decline in combat power?

Not true.

Dumbledore's death in the "original book" can only be said to be a coincidence.

He was bewitched by the resurrection stone ring and cursed by Voldemort, so he carefully designed his own death when he was about to die.

Dumbledore asked him with interest, "If you were the Minister of Magic, Scott, what would you do?"

"Me?" Scott asked in surprise.

Dumbledore nodded and looked at him expectantly.

"If it were me, I would not let those Death Eaters imprisoned in Azkaban have the opportunity to recover their combat power."

Scott told the truth.

"Since we can't resist Voldemort's jailbreak, let's make the people he wants to save completely lose the value of being saved."

"You mean..." Dumbledore's face remained unchanged, "death penalty?"

Scott said: "It's not that there has never been death penalty in the magic world. Didn't wizards get sentenced to the Dementor's Kiss before?"

He really couldn't understand how the Ministry of Magic sentenced those criminals.

Many people were not wronged even if they were killed a hundred times, but they could still survive in Azkaban.

Dumbledore said: "We must be cautious about taking other people's lives."

Scott had no intention of arguing with him on this topic.

He just said: "It doesn't mean that all criminals will be executed, but we just want to find a way to make them completely lose their fighting power."

"Deprive of magic?" Dumbledore said, "The Ministry of Magic has always been doing this."

Scott said: "What's the point of just breaking the wand? As long as those guys escape from prison, they will always find various ways to get the wand."

Dumbledore said again; "If the wizard's magic is completely taken away, it is no less than taking a person's life."

"They don't need magic."

Scott said as a matter of course.

"Especially those who are sentenced to life imprisonment. Under normal circumstances, they would never have the opportunity to use magic again."

"You should be able to imagine that such a policy will inevitably cause a huge uproar." Dumbledore shook his head gently, "Most wizards will oppose it."

Scott shrugged his shoulders, "I know, so I won't participate in politics, because I don't like compromise."

Dumbledore laughed again.

"I think so too. Fortunately, your ambition does not include politics."

Scott was a little helpless.

The topic came to this point, and he couldn't help but say something else.

"Those people, I mean some Death Eaters, who have killed countless Muggles and righteous wizards in the past, and even tortured them cruelly."

"They are all executioners who have committed many evil deeds and have blood on their hands. I can't think of any reason not to execute them."

Sorry, I broke my promise today.

I will definitely update more tomorrow.

Sorry!
