They thought that Dumbledore was rebelling against the Ministry of Magic and concluded that Dumbledore had released the Death Eaters...
Elwyn did not know how to evaluate this idea.
He felt that it was a pity that Foggy and Umrich did not write novels. Normal people would not have this kind of whimsical thinking.
Of course, imagination was one thing, the key was evidence, which was what they urgently needed.
The Ministry of Magic knew nothing about the situation now, but it was only a matter of time.
They had their own intelligence network and could find out some things.
Not to mention, Lord Voldemort and the Death Eaters were helping them behind the scenes, providing them with information that was unfavorable to Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix.
They had already determined that Dumbledore had instructed Sirius to join forces with the vampires to plan this prison break. What they lacked now was evidence to prove that there was a connection between them. The breakthrough point was Elaine, although Elwyn did not think that they would find anything valuable in Norway or Boothbottom.
Dumbledore had handled everything properly, but it was not good to drag on like this. Lord Voldemort was an uncertain variable.
Keresis had taken measures. Lord Voldemort had never seen Elaine, but he definitely knew of her existence.
He could provide this clue to the Ministry of Magic, or fabricate some evidence.
Since Umrich already knew so much, Elwyn felt that it was better to act according to the previous plan.
The current situation had changed, and the sooner they solved the problem, the greater their advantage.
Continuing the stalemate would only make the situation worse, not to mention that after Elwyn, Elaine would come over to be confined.
If Umrich's truth-telling serum was effective, she could find out everything from Elaine.
Since passive defense was no longer possible, it was better to take the initiative to attack and find the opponent's flaws.
Elwyn made up his mind to teach Umrich a lesson before he left. This was his promise to Hermione and Elaine.
It would be easy to cast a curse on her, but Elwyn was sure that he would not be satisfied.
That would be too easy on her. He thought of Umrich's ending in the original novel.
It was better to leave her to the wild horsemen, who would surely make her comfortable.
A scene of Umrich being surrounded by the ferocious centaurs appeared in Elwyn's mind, he could not help but nod his head.
Then, he thought that it might not be a bad idea to hand it over to Glop. Women always liked giants.
Gloop also needed a companion. It was too lonely for him to be alone in the Forbidden Forest, but before that, he needed some technical help.
Elwyn looked at the cat scurrying around on the plate. No matter what, if he wanted to deal with Umrich, he had to get her into the Forbidden Forest first.
"Professor, I don't know how Sirius is related to the Death Eaters." Elwyn said slowly, "But I know the reason why Elaine came to Hogwarts. She is Nico Lemour's student and is proficient in alchemy. Professor Dumbledore hoped that Lemour could help him make something, so …"
"So, Nico Lemour sent her here?" Umrich said, suddenly excited.
She did not expect that she would get such information from Elwyn.
It was unexpected, but it was what she needed.
"Yes!" Elwyn covered his mouth with his hand, as if surprised at what he said.
Looking at Elwyn's surprised expression, Umrich was more and more satisfied. She asked eagerly, "Tell me, what is it that he wants to make?"
"I'm not too sure. It's a huge weapon, a powerful weapon." Elwyn said, "A weapon with amazing effects."
"Weapon? Weapon? " Umrich asked, her eyes looked like they were about to pop out of their sockets. "You mean Dumbledore is researching some kind of resistance? A weapon that can be used against the Ministry of Magic? "
"Yes, that should be it!"
Umrich straightened up, looking excited. She paced back and forth in front of Elwyn.
"Bring me to that weapon." She said, "You know where it is, right?"
"Yes!" Elwyn said dejectedly, as if he had given up resisting. "It's in the Forbidden Forest, but I can't bring you there. I can't betray Dumbledore."
"Silly boy, you should understand your situation. Even without you leading the way, we can still find that thing in the Forbidden Forest. It's only a matter of time." Umrich said in a motherly tone, her mouth wide open. "Look at the reality. Dumbledore is finished. As long as you are willing to help the Ministry of Magic, I can restore your position as the President of the Boy Student Union. I can even help you find a position in the Ministry of Magic after you graduate."
"I can't!" Elwyn murmured, as if he was struggling. "That weapon is very powerful. Dumbledore said that it can destroy everything."
"It's not your turn to talk about conditions," Umrich said sternly, more and more eager. "You have no other choice."
There was a brief silence. Elwyn seemed to be hesitating.
"If I take you to see that thing, will you restore my position as the President of the Boy Student Union?"
"That's not a problem, Mr. Mason. I can even give you more power," Umrich said. "The President of the Boy Student Union is nothing."
"Then can you give me my wand first?" Elwyn pointed to the wand that was tied to the wall.
"No!" Umrich said immediately, pulling out her own wand and pointing it at Elwyn. She was not stupid enough to return the wand to Elwyn. "I don't think you need that thing for the time being. What you need to do now is to take me to the Forbidden Forest to find that weapon."
Perhaps it was because she considered that Elwyn did not have a wand, this made Umrich feel a lot safer.
Otherwise, she would not dare to go into the Forbidden Forest alone with Elwyn.
"Are we going now, Professor?" Elwyn asked, looking at the sky outside. "It's going to be dark soon. The Forbidden Forest is not safe at night."
"Yes, let's go now, immediately. I'm a completely competent officer of the Ministry of Magic, and I can deal with any danger. " As Umrich said this, she began to write on the paper on the table again. "There's nothing in the Forbidden Forest that can hurt us, so you don't have to worry. Well, I'll write a letter to the Minister, and he will bring a professional Auror here to seize that weapon. We'll succeed, no problem at all. "
Elwyn was very doubtful about this. Anyway, as long as he lured Umrich into the Forbidden Forest, he would have the final say!
Unfortunately, Hermione and Elaine were not here, and he could not let them see the scene of Umrich being destroyed.
The two of them wanted to see the giant so much, but now they could not get their wish!
As Elwyn was thinking this, he and the impatient Umrich had just left her office, and they saw Hermione and Elaine walking towards them.
They stopped and looked at them in surprise, watching as Umrich pointed her wand at Elwyn.
It was almost six o 'clock, and after Elwyn, it would be the time for Elaine to be confined.
As for Hermione, she must have planned to send Elaine over, and take a look at Elwyn's situation.
"Elwyn, you …"
