Vader didn't walk in until all the sounds faded away.

The portraits, curtains and carpets had all been burned, leaving the room in darkness. Only the statues remained.

Vader cast an Shield Charm and a Bubblehead Charm on himself, then waved his wand.

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang..."

Amid a series of explosions, all the statues were blown to pieces, and even huge cracks appeared on the walls and floors.

Gusts of wind swirled gently, collecting the gold powder that was exposed after the statue exploded, and then falling into the crystal bottle that Wade had prepared in advance.

When the gold powder was first sprayed out, it looked like a lot, but when all of it was gathered together, it couldn't even fill an ordinary water cup.

They were placed in a crystal bottle, and Wade felt as if he had a bottle of glittering mercury - it was flowing, shining with metallic luster, and when it was still, it was as smooth as a mirror.

When you shake it gently, you can see tiny golden lights flashing inside, as if there are many stars hidden inside, making it exceptionally bright.

Wade couldn't help but stare at it for a long time before he reluctantly put it away.

He didn't know what this thing was, but he was sure that it was an extremely special alchemical product that had never appeared on the market.

Wade had personally experienced that this gold powder could only make people slow to react and drowsy. The coma spell or the water of life and death could also achieve similar effects.

The advantage of gold powder is that it is hard to guard against, which does not quite match the special posture it presents.

The person who made it may not have great skills... but he must have used some extraordinary materials...

Wade was so excited that he wished Rita Skeeter could find those people's lair right away so that he could get more raw materials.

——Perhaps this is also the reason why those people are looking for alchemists.

Not only to produce puppets for war and killing, but also because they have a mountain of treasure in their hands but cannot bring out its true power...

As he thought about this, he destroyed the exhibition hall inside and out until it was completely unrecognizable from its original appearance.

Afterwards, Wade set another fire, setting fire to the entire building upstairs and downstairs. He went into the secret passage that had been used to leave the building before and made some arrangements. Only then was he able to move all the alchemists except Gul out.

The gold powder on their bodies was also collected. Wade threw the spare wand into the wardrobe space, and then the wardrobe was transformed into a pencil case and stuffed into his pocket.

Then, he lay down on the ground, closed his eyes, stretched out his hand and chanted: "Clear water is like a spring!"

The water poured down like a torrent, splashing down on everyone.

As Wade closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, he heard someone choking and coughing.

"Ahem...Oh, damn! Where is this? I can't see! Why is it so dark?...Lumos! Where's my wand? My wand is gone!"

The first person to wake up was a irritable young man who started yelling and soon woke everyone up.

The wizard who mastered wandless magic quickly illuminated the secret passage, providing light for everyone.

"What is this place? What happened?"

They knew that the people around them were just as confused as they were, but they kept asking.

Professor Murray, who was still confused, wiped the water off his face, propped himself up on the floor and sat up. He looked around and shouted worriedly, "Vade! Vader!"

"I'm here, Professor!"

Wade responded, squeezed past the person in front of him, and walked to Professor Murray's side.

His hair was also wet and his body was covered in dirt. He looked as disheveled as everyone else.

Professor Murray breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm glad you're okay...Are you hurt?"

"...No." Wade hesitated and said, "I can't find my wand."

"Me too." Professor Murray sighed and said, "I don't know what Gul wants to do... Anyway, let's find a way to leave here first."

"We can't Apparate...we are still within the area of ​​the anti-Apparition spell." A wizard said in panic.

"We won't be locked up, will we?" another person asked fearfully.

But no matter what, we can't just sit there and wait for the mastermind behind the scenes to show up.

There was steam and jumping flames at one end of the passage, so everyone naturally chose to go in the other direction. As they walked, the person in front suddenly exclaimed and stopped.

"What's wrong?" the person behind asked, "Why did you stop? Isn't there an exit ahead?"

“…No.” The man turned around slowly with a strange expression, looked at everyone and said, “Gul seems to have left a message for us.”

"what?!"

Everyone pushed forward, but in the end, due to limited space, they decided to let the person in the front read it to everyone.

In the quiet passage, there was only the sound of everyone's rapid breathing. After a few seconds, a slightly trembling voice sounded -

“They want to imprison and use you.

I was under the Imperius Curse and became an accomplice.

At the last moment, I woke up... I don't know how long I can stay awake.

If you wake up free,

Go home now! Go home now! Go home now!

Keep quiet and don't report it to the Ministry!

Their people are everywhere!

I’m so sorry, my friend—”

In the shuddering chill, everyone was speechless for a long time, with fear, terror, sadness, nostalgia...all kinds of emotions mixed in their hearts.

After a long while, someone said in a trembling voice: "Let's...let's go quickly...what if those people come back? We don't even have wands..."

Everyone woke up as if from a dream: "Yes, go! Go!"

"Where's the wand?"

"Of course! It must have been stolen by those criminals!"

In the rush, no one was in the mood to discuss, nor did they have time to think about the inconvenience of the matter.

Perhaps when there were only one or two people, they could think more calmly. But at this moment, driven by the herd mentality, everyone started jogging with their heads covered.

But everyone couldn't help but stop when passing by that line of messages.

The words carved on the mud wall have been completely deformed, and it can be seen how "Guer" hurriedly left the message in panic and tension. The last line of words was not even carved completely, and the last stroke of "e" was dragged out very long.

It is unknown whether "Ghul" was under the control of the Imperius Curse again, or encountered a dangerous situation and had to flee.

Everyone imagined the scene at that time and tears were about to fall.

They ran out of the passage without time to talk, and agreed to contact their friends through their accounts, then quickly Apparated away from the spot.

【Go home immediately! 】

The exhortations repeatedly emphasized by "Guer" have been imprinted in everyone's heart.

"Follow me, Vader!"

Professor Murray, who was the last one to fall behind, stretched out his arm, grasped Wade's arm tightly, and was about to Apparate with him.

"Professor!" Wade held his hand and said, "I want to go home, professor."

Professor Murray frowned: "You alone..."

"Alastor Moody lives next door to me," Vader said.

"Okay." Professor Murray was relieved when he heard that. After changing the destination, he Apparated again.

"boom!"

Finally, the two figures disappeared from the spot.

Chapter 303 Finally here

With a "bang", Professor Murray brought Wade to the vicinity of Gray's house.

The sound, like a balloon exploding, immediately alerted the retired Auror. The lights in Moody's house went out immediately, and a dark figure quickly passed by the window.

Apart from that, the streets were as quiet as ever, with the sound of TV programs faintly coming from Gray's house.

"Feddie - have you seen my hairpin? The one with the pink gem -" Fiona asked.

Through the window, you can see the man of the Gray family standing up from the sofa and walking around to help find things.

Seeing that his parents' lives were not disturbed by those people, Wade breathed a sigh of relief.

As usual, Professor Murray had no intention of visiting Mr. and Mrs. Gray.

"Weid, go home and stay well. It's best not to go out for the next two days."

Professor Murray placed his hand on Wade's shoulder and warned:

"If you need to go to Diagon Alley to buy something, ask that Moody guy to go with you."

"What about you, Professor?" Vader asked.

"I will contact Dumbledore..."

Professor Murray paused, then continued:

"And some of my old friends, find someone to rescue Gul, and investigate this matter thoroughly. You must also be careful at all times until you are sure it is safe."

"Okay." Wade hesitated, then said, "Should we report to the Ministry of Magic?"

"Ministry of Magic?"

Professor Murray sneered disdainfully:

"It's a bloated and incompetent organization. Once Fudge gets involved, they will definitely make a lot of trouble and gain nothing in the end."

Seeing that Wade was still looking up at him, Professor Murray felt a little bit of love for his own child. He swallowed the sarcasm on his tongue and explained slowly:

"The Ministry of Magic is an organization with a complex personnel structure, and it is difficult to keep any secrets. Once the matter is leaked, not being able to catch the criminals is secondary. The important thing is that Goole may still be in their hands..."

He paused for a moment, and thinking of his friend whose life or death was in danger, he couldn't help feeling worried.

"If the news leaks out, Goole will be in danger... So I will contact Dumbledore and a few friends among the Aurors to investigate secretly - I think other people probably think so too."

Wade was silent for a while, then whispered, "Professor, you must be careful."
