Chapter 171 Killing is meaningless
The compartment is a fully enclosed space. In such an environment, the most suitable spell is the explosion spell.
It doesn't take too much. As long as ten magic wands use the explosion spell together, the people there can't react at all and they will all be blown to ashes.
But after all, there are not only Death Eaters in the compartment. There are two staff members of the Ministry of Magic lying on the ground. The witch tied to a chair and forced to confess was basically confirmed to be the director of the Department of Mysterious Things, Mrs. Selwin.
So Sherlock could only use a compromise method to increase the number of wands. Before opening the door, pay attention to the general orientation of those people in the compartment and aim for preparation.
Then he kicked open the door and the spell was released!
"All petrochemicals."
This time, Sherlock did not continue to use the silent spell, because it would also reduce the effect of the spell. She didn't have to care when dealing with a person before. Now that the goals have increased, there is no need to hide, Sherlock will naturally choose to recite the spell.
Nearly a hundred coma curses did not give the people in the compartment any time to react. In other words, even if there was enough time to react, they could not think of how to react in a short period of time.
Most of the spells hit the target.
Three of the Death Eaters who were first locked up were hit directly by more than a dozen spells, and fell down on the spot.
But due to angle issues, Argi was blocked by Madam Selwin behind the witch, and no shot hit him, and the same was true for the other Death Eater. Most of the spell was blocked by the three companions in front of him. He was only hit one shot, and the effect of being greatly reduced was not enough to make him petrified. He was just a little stiff and unable to move.
More than a dozen spells fell on the desks and walls, leaving behind a large number of potholes.
At this time, Algi and another Death Eater who had only won one petrified spell finally reacted.
The only thing they thought about now was that they were surrounded by dozens or hundreds of Aurors at this time! The Aurors gave up the Death Eaters in Sheffield and chose to come back to guard the Ministry of Magic!
Otherwise, even if all the Aurors who are left behind in the tribe are coming, they will not be able to use so many spells at once.
So the first time Arji and the Death Eater came to his senses was to be prepared to escape!
There are only two of them left now, but Auror is almost all here, and the plan must have failed!
Arji raised his wand at the first time, and the spell he recited was the phantom movement.
However, before he could recite the spell in full, a thick large piece of head floated out of thin air on his desk, and then he directly smashed it down at him!
The spell was interrupted, and then a dozen red petrified spells hit him directly, completely blocking the retreat he was about to escape.
Another Death Eater had no chance to use Phantom Shift at all. He was not an employee of the Ministry of Magic, and the anti-Phantom Shift magic here was not open to him.
Just as he was holding his wand in the corner at a loss, dozens of wands floated in the air and flew into the compartment, aiming all the tips at him.
At this time, Sherlock and Sophie, who had a numb look on her face, walked in together.
The Death Eater who was forced into the corner did not dare to use a spell. After Sherlock walked in, he still stretched his head and looked behind him, trying to find the Aurors who had just been uniform and used a spell together.
However, behind Sherlock was empty and there was no one.
The other petrified Death Eaters were the only one in Arji who fell to the ground, facing the door of the compartment. He could see more clearly that there was no one in the time hall outside, and there were only two wizards in front of him.
And looking at their clothes, the witch was obviously not from the Ministry of Magic!
Algi's eyes became confused.
So there is no Auror army at all. The curse that can’t be counted just now was actually all used by one person?
Sherlock ignored the mental state of these Death Eaters. After using several petrified spells against the only Death Eater who could move but had basically let down his resistance, he walked to Mrs. Selwin and removed the spell on her body.
Seeing the doubts on the face of the Director of the Mysterious Affairs Department, Sherlock raised his eyebrows and introduced himself.
"Hello madam, my name is John Watson. I was entrusted by Eddie Butler at Shelffield to remind you that the former director, Strey, was killed. The Death Eater learned from her the secrets of the Department of Things and could break into it at any time, but it seems that I still came a little late."
Mrs. Selwin shook her head.
"No, you came very promptly. If you hadn't come here, you would probably have a lot of trouble."
Sherlock could vaguely hear from her tone that she actually had no fear. For example, even if Sherlock did not appear, it would not be a big deal for her to be sprayed with real medicine, and the Death Eaters could not get what they wanted.
The wands floating in the air flew back to Sherlock's bag one after another, and at this time there was also a commotion outside the time hall.
Soon, Sclinger came here with Barty Little and Kingsley and a group of six. He saw this scene in the office of the Mysterious Affairs Department, his face full of shock and confusion.
Seeing that they were only appearing now, Sherlock couldn't help but think of the police in the film and television dramas who only appeared at the time. They would come and finish it until the matter was all over.
Sclinger and the others did come here to finish the exam.
Argy did not wear a mask, so who was the traitor was clear at a glance. After asking his subordinates to take these Death Eaters to the interrogation room, Sclinger, as the office director, personally asked Sherlock a series of inquiries.
"You mean you met Eddie while traveling in Sheffield and he asked you to help report the matter to the Ministry of Magic?"
His attitude was very kind, not doing any interrogation, but just doing some routine inquiries, so Sherlock did not feel anything wrong and told the truth.
"Yes, the Death Eater was chasing him at that time and didn't want him to bring the news back to the Ministry of Magic, and the Ministry of Magic... Well, there was also some misunderstandings about him. He happened to meet me. For some reason, we both had a basis for mutual trust. Then he asked me to help find Sophie, and then asked her to take me to the Ministry of Magic to find Mrs. Selwin. The final result is what you see."
Sclinger's face was gloomy.
"After the failure of that operation in Wales, the person who said Eddie was a traitor was Algi! His grandfather was the former Minister of Magic and had a wide connection in the ministry. Those people convinced Director Crouch not to give Eddie a chance to directly determine his crime. Even Batty, who participated in the operation at the time, expressed doubts about this and said that the traitor was not necessarily him, which would be useless."
As he said that, he looked at Sherlock again.
"Did Eddie tell you where he plans to go next? After Algi was caught, this is enough to prove his innocence."
Sherlock shrugged.
"He said he was going to the Isle of Man, and the Death Eaters are still chasing him. He wanted to restrain some of the Death Eaters' attention so that he could share the pressure on Sheffield."
Sclinger looked silent.
"No one should have doubts about his loyalty to the Ministry of Magic. I will help him ask for an explanation from the Ministry."
Finally, Sclinger thanked Sherlock solemnly.
"Thank you very much for your help, Mr. Watson, if you didn't arrive in time, then there would be serious consequences that would be unimaginable. Do you have any needs? If so, I can try my best to help you apply to the department as a reward."
Sclinger's words were sincere. If it weren't for Sherlock, Mrs. Selwin would have been given a real sperm, and today the matter would have become extremely serious. It would be impossible for him to even lose the position of director of the Auror's office for this reason.
Sherlock was waiting for this sentence. He did not make any reserved or refusal attitude and asked directly.
"This time I came to the Ministry of Magic, I felt that the place of the Mystery Affairs Department was very interesting, so can I apply for a position here and work here?"
Sclinger was a little caught off guard by his request.
If Sherlock wants honor or money, he can approve it from the Ministry of Magic, or if he wants to join Auror, this is even more undesirable.
Although he is not sure what method Sherlock used to defeat the five Death Eaters alone (Sophie was not counted as combat power by him), with such strength, if he becomes Auror, it will definitely become a great help in the command center.
Sclinger tried to say.
"If you want Mr. Watson, I can recruit you directly into the Auror Command, and with your current achievements, it is not impossible to be promoted to become a captain. As for the Department of Mystery Affairs, I do not have the authority to make decisions for them. If you really want to work here, I can only ask you about Mrs. Selwin's thoughts."
Sherlock did not refuse or agree, just said.
"Then please help me ask. Of course, I am willing to help the Ministry of Magic, but according to my personal interests, I still have more ideas about the work of the Department of Mystery Affairs, and fighting and killing is of no meaning."
Sclinger pulled the corner of his mouth and nodded at it.
"Then will you wait for the result in the ministry next, or leave first? If you are going to leave first, when the matter here stabilizes, Mrs. Selwin will give you a reply and I will ask someone to inform you."
"I'd better go back to the Boiling Bar first. If there is a result, you can ask someone to go there to find me, where will my uncle and I live?"
