Chapter 354 Did You Kill Him? Why?

"Of course, aren't we just looking for someone? There's no problem!" Upon hearing Ivan's request, Walker assured him, patting his chest carelessly.

"Then this is the test I give you!" Ivan smiled and said casually.

Walker nodded solemnly.

While chatting like this, the three of them quickly returned to the temporary mansion.

Ivan just opened the door and found Asia sitting in the hall, flipping through a thick notebook-like thing.

"You are back." Noticing the movement at the door, Asia raised her head.

Noticing the dust and fatigue on their bodies, Asia took out her wand and tapped it on the round table. A plate of delicious desserts and several glasses of milk and juice were placed on the table.

"How's it going? Is everything going well? Do you want some midnight snacks?" Asia asked with a smile.

"It went very well! Hermione learned this spell much faster than I expected. And Walker, the thunderbolt explosion he used is very powerful. It seems that this spell is suitable for him!" Ivan looked at it! He glanced at Hermione and Walker and said with praise.

Hermione pursed her lips reservedly, her eyes showing joy, and Walker touched the back of his head and smiled proudly.

After practicing outside for so long, the three of them were a little hungry. Ivan picked up a piece of pastry and stuffed it into his mouth, then drank more than half a glass of juice.

Although he didn't need to practice spellcasting, he was still very tired after explaining it for several hours.

"By the way, there's one thing I haven't told you yet: Bock is dead!" Asia suddenly said.

What?

Ivan, who was drinking the juice, almost squirted out the juice in one gulp. He remembered that Bock had been thinking about it recently, hadn't he? I obviously had a great time chatting with him in the afternoon.

Could it be that he suddenly became autistic again?

Ivan was a little regretful. In his opinion, Bock had a lot of crooked ideas, and he had not yet learned all of Bock's alchemy knowledge, so he originally wanted Bock to live for a while longer.

"Anyway, come with me first!" Asia put down her notebook and stood up with a serious expression.

Ivan nodded and followed Asia towards the room where Bock was held.

Only when he actually saw Bock's body did Ivan realize that the situation was different from what he imagined.

Bock did not commit suicide at all, but was killed by some powerful black magic, and there was still a faint black mist seeping out of the body.

Ivan frowned, subconsciously thinking that someone had sneaked in and killed Bock for some purpose, but then gave up the idea because Ivan noticed an empty reagent bottle lying on the ground.

Ivan remembered that he used it to hold the truth serum. After brewing it and using it once before, he threw it into the storage room, where it was placed with other potions and was not very conspicuous.

If someone sneaks in, it is unlikely that he will know where the truth serum is, let alone take it and use it openly. He will really think that everyone else in the mansion is blind.

So there is only one possibility, and that is Asia's hand!

"Mom, did you kill him? Why?" Ivan looked at Asia in confusion.

Although he knew that Asia and Bock had been fighting for many years and had a grudge, but since they had not taken action before, it proved that Asia could still tolerate Bock being alive.

"You still dare to ask me why? It's not because you said so many things to him that you shouldn't say. Why don't you think about what if Bock didn't spread his words around the door? How much impact will it have on us? "Aisia pinched Ivan's cheek angrily and reprimanded angrily.

Ivan was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it, he quickly understood what Asia was talking about.

Because he felt that he was in the wrong, Ivan did not dare to refute. He indeed shared and discussed the core alchemy knowledge that Asia taught him with Bock without his consent.

However, Ivan had no intention of letting Bock escape alive at the time, so he made a hasty judgment that there would be no chance of Bock leaking.

Now that I think about it, this approach was inappropriate.

After all, people who have the opportunity to come into contact with Bock, in addition to him and Asia, there are also those werewolf wizards, must be more cautious.

Thinking of this, Ivan repeatedly assured Aisia that he would make a decision after discussing it with her next time.

After finally getting Asia to calm down, Ivan finally brought up another matter.

"Mom, Fulen and the others lost their jobs because of our previous attack on Bojinbok's store, so I just agreed to recruit them to work for us.

As for the salary, don’t worry about it. I earned a lot of gold galleons at Hogwarts last year. If I use some of it, it will be enough to cope with it for a while."

Of course Asia didn't agree, so Ivan directly took over the salaries of Fulen and others. Anyway, it doesn’t cost much in a month. Once the branch in Diagon Alley opens, it won’t be long before you can make it all back!

Asia had already guessed that Ivan wanted to win over Fulen and others and use these werewolf wizards as the core team to develop his power, so he agreed.

Asia has been watching the performance of Fulen and others in the past two years. Some time ago, she investigated the details of those werewolf wizards. There is nothing suspicious, and they can still be trusted!

But thinking of this, Asia hesitated, couldn't help but rubbed Ivan's hair and said something. "You don't have to be so anxious about some things. It's not too late to do them in a few years!"

Asia feels that Ivan seems to be a little too hasty. Even if he has the ideal to change the magical world and is planning to target Dumbledore, it still needs to be done step by step. It is best to wait until he is an adult before making arrangements slowly.

"How can that be done?" Ivan shook his head firmly.

Of course, for him, the sooner he makes money, the better!

Even though Bock is dead now, all the dark wizards who need to be vigilant have been killed, but Knockturn Alley is not safe after all, so it is best to open the magic shop to Diagon Alley!

"Well, it's up to you!" Looking at the stubborn Ivan, Asia sighed.

Since Ivan was so insistent, Asia stopped persuading him and handed him the notebook he had been carrying before.

"I used veritaserum to ask this from Bock. It should be something he has kept and not taught you."

Ivan took over this thick notebook and looked through it, and found that the contents recorded in it were some profound alchemy and black magic knowledge. These should be Bock's real treasures.

Ivan was very pleasantly surprised. He was just feeling sorry for the fact that after Bock's death, he lacked a mentor who could help him quickly improve his alchemy skills. However, he did not expect that Asia would actually use Veritaserum to record this knowledge.
