"Ron?!" Elaine asked while biting her lollipop.
"Yes, Harry's reaction just now was too strange. Based on my understanding of him, he must have recognized the person imprisoned by the Black Demon in Malfoy's manor. Although he told us that the place was very dark and he couldn't see anything, he must have guessed it," Hermione said, "From his reaction, that person is very likely to be Ron."
Hermione had always been very sensitive to this kind of thing, to the point of being frighteningly sensitive. Her guesses were always very accurate.
Although her results in divination were terrible, when it came to reasoning, Hermione's thoughts were indeed clearer than others.
"I also have some suspicions that it's Ron, but … it's just a possibility, it's all just a guess at the moment!" Elwyn said.
"Just a guess?" Hermione stared at Elwyn, as if she had noticed something, and asked, "Do you also know something?"
"Yes! Elwyn told her about his speculation about the Soul Tool and the Magic Stone.
The expression on Hermione's face gradually became shocked, and then she asked in a panic, "Oh my god, if that person is really Ron, what should we do?"
"If it's really Ron, then we don't have to worry about his safety. The Magic Stone is with him, and killing Ron is equivalent to destroying the Soul Tool. The Black Demon wouldn't do such a stupid thing. If I were him, not only would I not kill Ron, I would also protect him," Elwyn said thoughtfully. He had been thinking about this since the beginning.
If it was really Ron, then putting his personal safety and feelings aside, what impact would this matter have on their next plan?
The biggest impact would probably be the leak of secrets!
Although there were many secrets, and Elwyn had deliberately avoided Ron, he still knew a lot after spending so much time with him. To be honest, Elwyn did not think that Ron was unreliable, but the probability of Ron getting into trouble before was too high. Being controlled by the Soul Snatch Curse once a year, this kind of thing was very rare even in the dark and chaotic past, and it was very easy to get unlucky, so Elwyn was extra careful around Ron. Now it seemed that if Ron had the Soul Tool of Lord Voldemort, then these things could be explained reasonably, but at the same time, it also proved that Elwyn's previous protection measures were not only not enough, but also too little.
Ron did not know the whole plan of Elwyn and Hermione, did not know the secret treasure of the Four Magnates, did not know the information about the Evil God, did not even know where Elwyn and the others were going after leaving the Shack, but Ron knew about Gryffindor's Sorcerer's Stone, knew about Ravenclaw's Wisdom Coronet, knew about Slytherin's Double Snake Staff, knew about …
These were all things that needed to be kept secret, but it was impossible not to let Ron know.
If this information was leaked by Ron to Lord Voldemort …
Was it too late to go to the Malfoy Manor to rescue Ron now?!
No, it was too late!
Elwyn shook his head. From what Harry had seen, Lord Voldemort had already interrogated Ron.
After being interrogated by Lord Voldemort, Elwyn did not believe that Ron would keep these secrets. It was meaningless to save him now to prevent the secret from being leaked.
Among the many secrets and information that Ron knew, the Double Snake Staff was the most important one.
It was very likely that Lord Voldemort was on his way to the Hogwarts to retrieve the Double Snake Staff!
"The current situation is very bad. If the person imprisoned is really Ron, we must prepare for the worst," Roan said with a sigh. Elwyn said. "No, Hermione, I'm not talking about Ron's safety. Just like what I said, if that person is really Ron, we don't have to worry about his safety. Going to the Malfoy Manor to rescue Ron and destroying the Soul Vessel is not urgent. What we need to be anxious about is that the Black Demon may have already learned a lot of our secrets from Ron. We don't have the power to stop him now. Whether he obtains the Double Snake Staff or turns himself into an Evil God, the only thing we can do is to hurry up and complete our previous plan as soon as possible. "
Between Lord Voldemort turning himself into an Evil God and Elwyn and the others collecting all the treasure keys, it was a race of time and speed.
It was like this before, but Ron's leak made Elwyn and the others' situation worse.
Of course, knowing that Ron was controlled by Lord Voldemort was not completely useless.
At the very least, if Lord Voldemort planned to control Ron to obtain information, he would not succeed. They did not have to worry about being deceived.
Elwyn, Hermione, and Elaine discussed for a while. What should they do now?!
This topic lasted for about an hour, and Elaine finally could not take it anymore and went to bed. Elwyn and Hermione did not continue the discussion. Kreacher brought them some refreshing drinks, and the two of them flipped through the magic materials, trying to decipher the information on the gold cup and the title deed.
It was not until late at night that Sirius arrived at 12 Grimmauld Square.
He brought bad news that could almost prove the fact that Ron had been captured by Lord Voldemort.
"Good evening, Elwyn! Good evening, Hermione! How was your day here? "
"Not bad!"
"We did a lot of things."
"That's good. It was a terrible day!" Sirius said tiredly, as if he thought that Elwyn and the others had stayed in 12 Grimmauld Square for the whole day. This was what he had ordered before he left, not to let the four of them run around. He did not think much of it and sat down at the round table, ordering Kreacher to prepare some food for him. "We were very busy. There were Death Eaters, refugees, rumors, and many terrible things outside."
"What happened?"
"Many, many things that are beyond your imagination. I'd better tell you bit by bit," Sirius said, looking around. "Where are Harry and Elaine? Oh, it's already so late. They must have gone to bed by now. Don't sleep too late either! I'll stay here tonight. If there's anything, we can talk about it tomorrow morning. "
Although she was very curious about what Sirius had said, Hermione still asked eagerly, "Sirius, is there any news of Ron?"
"Yes!" Sirius nodded quickly and said with a gloomy expression, "But it's not good news. Forget it, I'll tell you two first so you can be prepared. You know, ever since the Ministry of Magic collapsed, many sorcerers started to flee. The Death Eaters and the new Ministry of Magic sorcerers formed search teams to search for those escaped sorcerers. According to reliable sources, they caught a boy in a forest earlier today. He might be Ron."
"So you're saying that Ron was really captured?"
