Explosive Acting
With the help of Marauder's Map, Albert easily found the location of Isobel. She was indeed doing her holiday homework in the library.
Albert went directly to the library to find someone, stood at the entrance and looked around, and finally found the red-haired girl in the corner, who was struggling with a paper.
He quietly walked over, raised his hand and tapped twice on the table, placed the envelope of Smith in front of her, and said in a voice that only two people could hear, "Professor Smith's letter, stay alert."
Albert's movement was very light, but it still attracted curious looks from several people around him.
Isobel glanced at the envelope, then looked up at Albert's leaving figure, silently chewing on the meaning of that sentence in his heart.
"Could it be a love letter?" Isobel's female companion stared at the letter curiously, winked at her friend and said, "I heard that Anderson is a genius."
"Yeah!"
Isobel opened the letter, read it quickly, stuffed it into his pocket, and packed up his things.
Another girl also came over, her eyes burning with the fire of gossip, and asked in a low voice, "Are you really dating?"
"I remember you seem to know each other, right?"
"And I often see you together."
"If he confesses to you, just accept it. I think you two are quite suitable."
"Talk too much." Isobel picked up his backpack and said to his two friends, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
"If you don't want me, I will confess to him and chase him." Another girl joked.
However, Isobel was already far away and could not hear her teasing.
"People are moving away."
"I'm very serious."
Isobel did not go to Defence Against the Dark Arts office immediately. Instead, he went back to Ravenclaw's dormitory first, put away his schoolbag, and then went to Defence Against the Dark Arts office to find Professor Smith.
The situation of Isobel is very similar to that of Albert. As soon as he entered, he was controlled by Imperius Curse of Smith and handed over his wand easily.
Albert suddenly felt depressed. He asked her to stay vigilant, but in the end, she still followed in his footsteps. Was all his love talk in vain? Or should I have made it clearer just now? Smith looked at the two Hogwarts and Genius Wizard in front of him happily. The faint smile on his face made Albert inexplicably disgusted. He had the urge to slap each other in the face with his fist.
What a hypocritical old man.
"Okay, let's go to Forbidden Forest to find Secret Treasure of Gryffindor!" Rowena·Smith said, "You guys go to Forbidden Forest together and meet me outside. Remember to avoid Hagrid and others."
After receiving the order, Albert and Isobel headed directly towards Forbidden Forest outside the castle.
Albert didn't dare to speak, worried about himself Exposure. He was a little suspicious of Smith and that bastard used Disillusionment Charm to follow behind them.
To be honest, he didn't believe that Smith was for the damn Gryffindor's Secret Treasure. If it was really for that thing, it would be impossible to use Unforgivable Curses on them. You know, using Unforgivable Curses on humans would be enough to make him spend a lifetime in prison for Azkaban.
Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, using Imperius Curse on two people using Rowena·Smith is enough for her to squat in Azkaban Prison for several years.
Just when Albert was thinking about the problem, they had already arrived at the periphery of Forbidden Forest. Hagrid was not in his Hunting Cabin, which saved them a lot of trouble.
Just as they were waiting for Rowena Smith to arrive, Albert's eyes happened to meet Isobel's, and the expression on his face suddenly froze.
Isobel's eyes are still very clear, as if saying to him: Help me?
Hey, hey, hey!! Albert blinked, and looking at Isobel's eyes, he suddenly felt like his thoughts were being read.
"You are not controlled by Imperius Curse?"
Albert expresses his curiosity in his mind.
"No."
Albert was immediately speechless. Everyone is an excellent actor and they are all playing their roles conscientiously.
However, Rowena·Smith did not give the two people time to continue to look at each other affectionately. The sound of footsteps sounded not far away. He dismissed Disillusionment Charm and appeared out of thin air not far away. He greeted the two of them and continued walking towards the depths of Forbidden Forest. Occasionally, he stopped and looked at Treasure Map. He was really following the instructions.
Are you really ready to find Gryffindor Secret Treasure?
Albert and Isobel walked silently in front. He didn't know how far he had walked, but the three of them did go deeper into Forbidden Forest, and the surrounding environment became more and more gloomy.
Isobel's body shook violently, pretending to be resisting Imperius Curse's control.
After a moment, she returned to normal, turned her head and looked at Smith, and said coldly, "What exactly do you want to do?"
"Nothing, I just invite you to go look for Secret Treasure of Gryffindor." Smith didn't pay much attention to Isobel who broke away from Imperius Curse, and moved his eyes to Albert, "You should also break free of Imperius Curse's control!"
"I'm just a little curious, what exactly do you want to do, and why do you want to use Imperius Curse to control us?" Albert asked one after another, expressing his doubts, "Even if you really want to find Secret Treasure of Gryffindor, there is no need to do such a thing, right?"
"Because he wants our lives," Isobel sneered, "What did you do to Katrina?"
"Don't worry, I have erased part of her memory. I will still be her respected uncle Smith." A cheerful smile appeared on the corner of Smith's lips, "When will you return to normal?"
"It's almost time to enter Forbidden Forest." Albert said without thinking.
Professor Smith looked Albert up and down and asked curiously, "Why didn't you run away?"
"I guess you are staring at us from behind!" Albert shook his head and said, "Besides, I also want to know why you do this and what makes you so crazy."
"If you don't mind, we can talk while walking." Rowena·Smith raised his wand and pointed at the two of them. "Don't try to resist. You don't have any chance if you lose your wand."
"I want to know why you are doing this." Albert walked in front silently and asked, "I really can't think of any reason why you should do this."
"Of course there are reasons. You're so smart that you couldn't think of it. I'm really disappointed!"
"Wildsmith?"
"That's right." Smith admitted simply.
"Are you crazy?" Albert couldn't understand it. The sick smile on Rowena·Smith's face made him feel sick.
"He is indeed crazy!" Isobel looked at Smith coldly, "He personally killed his best friend for that illusory thing, and now he wants to kill his daughter."
"No," Smith glared angrily at Isobel and said word by word, "Brell died in an experimental accident."
"You used Legilimency on him, right, and also erased part of his memory." Isobel's tone was filled with bone-chilling indifference, "It was you who killed him."
"How could you possibly know..."
"You are a superb Legilimens Master, and you are also very good at Occlumency, but unfortunately, I am also a natural Legilimens. I got the answer from Uncle Morg. They suspected that your father's death was related to you. Although there is no evidence, I do. You can't always be cautious. I spent a lot of time to find the answer, and this time it further confirmed my guess."
"Wonderful speculation." Smith smiled and clapped, "It was indeed an accident. I feel like I have been eliminated, but I just want to get the secret about Wildsmith. I have put so much effort and effort into it, and I want to ask them why I was eliminated."
"Isobel's father also failed, right?" Albert suddenly said.
"You're right, he didn't know anything." Smith said, "I used a very strong Memory Charm on him. Unfortunately, he died a week later because of the failure of the experiment."
"It's because that damn Memory Charm caused harm to dad." Isobel gritted his teeth and said, "That's why dad died inexplicably due to the accident of the magic experiment."
"So what."
"How? Of course... kill you." Isobel took out a wand from his pocket and unleashed magic on Smith.
Albert was stunned, but he soon understood everything. He finally knew why Isobel had endured it until now, just for this moment.
Forbidden Forest is so big that even if someone disappears for no apparent reason, it will be difficult to find it. It is suitable as a tomb.
Unfortunately, all three of them apparently thought so.
