Chapter 262 The Trap Is Quietly Set

After returning to the UK and taking a look at the Daily Prophet during this period, Adam couldn't help but sigh:

"In just a few months, Britain has been turned upside down."

The battle between Eugene and the Ministry of Magic had a preliminary result during this period. The camp where Eugene was located was slightly at a disadvantage and has now moved away from its original location.

"incredible……"

Bernard flipped through the pages at the back, but saw no more reports:

"How did those people from the Ministry of Magic defeat Eugene? I remember that you left two anti-aircraft guns for Eugene, right?"

“Leaders who have smooth sailing and are always on track to succeed are often prone to criticism.”

Eugene arrived belatedly at this moment,

"Especially when I am not the real official leader and it has not yet been revealed that Piers Thicknesse is Voldemort's man, pushing too hard is not a good thing."

After sitting down, Eugene said slowly:

"Appropriate failures and setbacks will certainly cause some weak-minded people to sway and leave, but they can strengthen the cohesion of those in the camp who are truly interested in making the magic world a better place."

This is like a man and woman in love. The more others oppose it, the more often it makes them feel that even if they are enemies of the world, they still want to be with each other.

To put it another way, contradictions will always exist, but when there is a major contradiction, everyone will often ignore those secondary contradictions and unite together.

"Wow~"

Bernard was stunned:

"Eugene, to be honest, this doesn't even look like you... How did you come up with this idea?"

For a moment, Bernard even felt a little guilty, not that he had led Eugene astray...

"This is something Adam and I discussed before."

Eugene smiled shyly and suddenly returned to Bernard's familiar appearance.

"Oh, that's not surprising."

Bernard breathed a sigh of relief.

Adam:?

"Has the Order of the Phoenix taken any action during this time?"

Cologne was even more curious about Professor Dumbledore's movements during this period, besides...

"How are the land prices in Hogsmeade recently? Has Adam taken over Hogsmeade?"

Since confirming his dream, Cologne no longer pays attention to the operation status of Exotic Animals. He even expressed great expectations after hearing that Adam planned to integrate the original Hogsmeade village to build a large shopping mall.

Mr. and Mrs. Berg: Happy family reunion!

However, Adam's progress in this area is indeed gratifying. Only less than 10% of the entire Hogsmeade village has not been acquired by Adam.

The situation in Diagon Alley is a bit more difficult, with Adam acquiring just over 50% and less than 60%.

As for the Order of the Phoenix that Cologne is concerned about...

"During your time in the United States, Voldemort was defeated twice by the team led by Professor Dumbledore, but in the end Voldemort escaped."

Eugene looked at Adam. Because of his position, he knew more about Voldemort and the Order of the Phoenix than others:

"The Death Eaters are experiencing serious attrition, and Voldemort is getting more and more crazy."

"Well, I understand."

Adam nodded. He already knew from the Hogwarts diary that Professor Dumbledore had invited Professor Snape to talk many times recently. It seemed that he really needed to find a way to deliver the Elder Wand to Voldemort as soon as possible.

…

"Master, you need someone who can get close to Dumbledore and make Dumbledore defenseless. Why not let Piers Thicknesse try?"

"Oh? What did you say?"

Voldemort looked at a Death Eater, the red light in his eyes flickering.

The Death Eaters who could still sit at the same table with Voldemort were all elite, but at this moment they still lowered their heads in fear, with the tip of their noses almost touching the floor.

"Master, I am too impatient..."

"No, you did a good job, August. Your suggestions... were very constructive. It reminded me that there is a person here who can bring extra value."

Voldemort narrowed his eyes and looked at Piers Thicknesse, who was sitting in the corner of the room and looking straight ahead:

"Dumbledore is really not too wary of the Minister of Magic. He is always so hypocritical. He draws a line that he cannot cross to limit his nature. This makes him have a lot of things that he shouldn't. Some weaknesses.”

"Pierce, my servant, the reason why I have never let you reveal your identity is because I hope you can create more value. Can you complete this task for me?"

"Of course, Master, I am willing to offer you everything."

Piers Thicknesse's answer was half a beat slow, but Voldemort was not angry at all, but laughed:

"Hehehehehe..."

Although the atmosphere was still very depressing, all the Death Eaters present still started laughing.

In this way, a trap was quietly set against Professor Dumbledore, and Professor Dumbledore also received a message from the portrait.

"this……"

Professor Dumbledore was silent for a while:

"Adam also placed an undercover agent next to Voldemort?"

He relied on a love-hate past so many years ago to have a trustworthy undercover agent like Snape, but how did Adam do it?

"That's not the point."

Professor Snape was not interested in how and when Adam placed an undercover agent next to Voldemort.

"The key is how can you make Harry the master of the Elder Wand within three days?"

"Don't worry about this, Severus. No one knows Gryffindor better than me."

Professor Dumbledore put aside his doubts and winked at Professor Snape:

"Leave it to me, but I also need your help. Tonight..."

That night, Harry met Ron and Hermione on the way back to Gryffindor Tower.

Hiss...

After many complicated mental journeys, although there was no direct threat from the Death Eaters as an aid, the two finally achieved their goal, but the price was that Harry's mental state was tortured by these two friends during this period and became a little weak.

Having a toothache, Harry saw the two people walking straight towards him. He resisted the desire to turn his head and smiled:

"You are back?"

Although they had classes together in the morning and had lunch together at noon, they didn't know where they went in the afternoon. Harry said he was not curious at all.

"Yes, we are back..."

Hermione blushed and lowered her head in embarrassment.

Ron pulled Hermione's arm and looked at Harry with a serious face:

"Harry, we came to you because we saw it before... I think it needs to be kept secret. This is not the place to talk. Let's go to the common room."

"..."

In terms of confidentiality, isn't the Gryffindor common room more inappropriate than the stairs?

Watching the three people walking away together, Adam blinked and followed them silently to prevent the news from being heard by some people who shouldn't hear it.
