When Elwyn returned to the Gringotts hall, Hermione, Bill, Hibiscus Chinensis, Gabri and Lavier were still discussing the Sun Ruins.
From the size of Pere Ramesis and the first level of the ruins being excavated, it could be inferred that the entire Sun Ruins was astonishingly large. Bill believed that there was still a very large space behind the obelisk hall's stone door.
Considering that there might be ancient texts like the Necromancy Black Codex hidden inside, the corresponding degree of danger was also unusually high.
Although with the passage of time, some defensive spells and curses would lose their effectiveness, but the remaining spells were the most dangerous.
Especially in an ancient temple like the Sun Ruins, which was left by Egypt's Pharaoh Ramses II in the most prosperous period, the curse inside was beyond imagination. Ramses II was a god that existed in the human world. This was not a simple compliment.
"Considering that Zuo Sai is leading the team this time, and the danger of the Sun Ruins itself, I suggest that the three of you don't go …"
As Elwyn walked over, he happened to hear Bill trying to persuade Hermione, Hibiscus Chinensis and Gabri not to follow.
"Don't worry, the excavation of the Sun Ruins should be canceled, we don't have to go there."
"What do you mean?" Everyone looked at him in shock.
"Elwyn, what happened down there?" Hermione asked hurriedly.
She was too familiar with Elwyn, and just from his expression, she knew that he must have done something.
"I just chatted with Mr Zuo Sai down there. How should I put it, he probably found his conscience and is preparing to take the initiative to confess all the things he did in the past." Elwyn said, sitting next to Hermione, "Murder, theft, reselling precious ancient items and colluding with dark wizards. With these crimes, he will spend the rest of his life in prison, naturally he won't have the time to lead us to excavate some ruins."
"Found his conscience?!"
Everyone looked at him in shock, as if they did not react to what Elwyn was saying.
How could that sprite find his conscience, this was as unlikely as Lord Voldemort becoming a good person.
"Where is Mr. Joser?" Lavier asked.
"He's at the back. Those boxes are too heavy, so he might be a little slower …" Elwyn looked at Bill and Lavier and said solemnly, "Alright, the situation is urgent. Regarding Mr. Djoser's decision to turn himself in, while congratulating him on his repentance, there are still many things to be done. If I'm not mistaken, this could be the biggest case in Egypt in centuries. So, I suggest that you call over the Auror army. The more, the better, and it would be best if you could hurry. "
Bill hesitated for a moment. Looking at Elwyn's serious expression, he nodded solemnly.
As a member of the Order of the Phoenix, he knew what Elwyn had done and could not be treated as an ordinary wizard.
Since he said that Zuo Sai wanted to turn himself in, then that might really be the case, even if it sounded ridiculous …
Similarly, as a spell dispeller who had worked in Egypt for many years, Bill was well aware of Zuo Sai's status and the implications of this matter.
Egypt's magic world would face an earthquake, Gringotts' power would be curbed, and the wizards connected to Zuo Sai would be out of luck!
"I'll bring the Auror army back immediately. You guys wait here," he said quickly and disappeared.
"What's going on?" Hibiscus Chinensis muttered, looking at Elwyn suspiciously.
"Mr. Joser …" Lavier suddenly shouted.
Following her gaze, everyone saw the fairy Zuo Sai slowly walking out from the side door, controlling a few huge boxes.
Those boxes were very heavy, and even with the help of magic, it was quite difficult to move them.
A few fairies hurriedly went up to help, but Zuo Sai pushed them away and went straight to the middle of the hall without a care.
"What did you do to that fairy?" Hermione asked softly, moving closer to Elwyn's ear.
"Of course it's the Soul Snatch Curse, or else he wouldn't be so obedient," Elwyn said, seeing Hermione's eyes widen.
He hurriedly grasped Hermione's small hand, calming her down.
Elwyn waved his hand at Hibiscus Chinensis, Gabri and Lavier, who were sitting opposite him, and had them come over to describe what happened below.
"You said that the fairy attacked you first, that's too despicable!" Gabri said, looking at Elwyn worriedly.
"So you robbed his treasury, and even used a truth serum to make him confess all his crimes," Hibiscus Chinensis said.
The corner of her mouth curled up slightly, very interested in the fairy's treasury that Elwyn mentioned.
"Those boxes contain evidence of Zuo Sai's crimes …" Lavier said excitedly, her gaze falling on the boxes beside Zuo Sai.
If what Elwyn said was true, then Zuo Sai was really done for. This was something she had always hoped for.
But to use the Soul Snatch Curse and truth serum, this boy who wasn't even her age was too daring.
"Elwyn, if someone finds out that you used the Soul Snatch Curse …" Hermione said, holding Elwyn tightly.
She carefully considered the entire situation. If there was enough evidence, then that fairy would be finished, but if someone found out that Elwyn used the Soul Snatch Curse and truth serum, then it would be quite troublesome.
No matter what Elwyn's original intentions were, he would be sentenced for using the Unforgivable Curse.
"After the Aurors arrive, I will cancel the spell, and no one will find any traces. Zuo Sai only turned himself in because of his conscience. He was moved by my words, and no matter if others believe it or not, they have no evidence." Elwyn said, very confident in his magic.
The magic world had always lacked effective methods to detect the Soul Snatch Curse, not to mention Elwyn's high level of spellcasting.
Unless there was a Magus of Dumbledore's level here, no one would find out that he had used magic on Zuo Sai.
A few minutes later, the bustling hall of Gringotts suddenly quietened down.
Light explosions sounded continuously, and one Auror after another appeared in the air. Many officials from the Ministry of Magic also walked out from the fireplace.
Bill's report was taken seriously, and the Egyptian Ministry of Magic had long been paying attention to Zuo Sai.
"What's going on?" A fairy in charge said, hurrying to greet him.
But what shocked him even more was still to come. Zuo Sai, who was standing in the middle of the hall, suddenly let out a loud sound, attracting everyone's attention. Everyone saw him throw the box beside him to the ground.
In the next second, countless gold and cultural treasures spilled out, shocking everyone.
Heavens, what did they see? Ancient pharaohs' golden masks, pure gold statues, resplendent coffins and mummies, all kinds of exquisite ornaments, countless gold coins and …
Unsurprisingly, Zuo Sai was done for. In the face of such shocking evidence, he quickly confessed everything.
Because of the shocking amount of wealth involved, and the speed at which the case progressed, as a witness, Elwyn had been invited to the Egyptian Ministry of Magic several times. Although no one believed him when he said that Zuo Sai had turned himself in because of his conscience, the Egyptian Magi were really considering giving him a medal.
