Chapter 190 The Labyrinth in the Darkness
Sherlock walked at the front door, Eddie pulled Amy to follow behind him, and the three of them pushed the door together and walked into the prophecy hall.

"What happened to Amy's eyes?"

Sherlock was the first to notice Amy's question, he patted her head and asked with a frown.

Amy rubbed her eyes again.

"Amy got sand in her eyes, but Amy doesn't think it's a problem."

Her feeling has always been correct. After hearing what Amy said, Sherlock didn't continue to take this matter to heart, but led them all the way to the depths of the Prophecy Hall.

"I have stayed here for a while, and I know that there is a special door in it. It can only be opened on certain days of the week. I opened it once, and there is wind inside, which is likely to be blown in from the outside!"

As Sherlock said, the three trotted all the way to the innermost wall of the Prophecy Hall.

There are three doors here, the leftmost one can be opened at will, and some broken crystal balls are stored, the right one is always locked, and the black door in the middle is the room that Sherlock said.

"Is today the day it can be opened?" Eddie asked in a hurry.

Sherlock nodded.

"It's today, as long as it's not past 12 o'clock."

He stretched out his hand and pushed open the door forcefully, a gust of fresh cold wind blew out from the door, and at the same time lifted the hair on the foreheads of the three people.

The continuous explosion sounded behind them, and they walked into the dark room together without hesitation.

The black door was closed again, and in the Hall of Time, the wall of vines created by Sherlock controlling two hundred magic wands was finally blasted out by the Death Eaters with the Explosive Curse.

In the round black hall, Bella's face was as cold as frost.

Dozens of Death Eaters around her were constantly using the Explosive Curse, and behind them lay four Aurors who had passed out with the Stunning Curse.

In order to keep Barty Jr.'s identity from being exposed, they didn't kill anyone in the Ministry of Magic tonight.

Aiming at the blasted gap, countless shattering curses once again exerted their effects on the scorched vines.

After 1 minute, an entrance that can pass through was destroyed.

At this moment, five Death Eaters came out from another room of the Department of Mysteries together.

"The Ministry of Magic staff who stayed here have been dealt with, but" the Death Eater said hesitantly, "but that Mrs. Selwyn, she is gone."

Bella looked at her sullenly, moving her fingers slightly in the wand-holding hand.

"Did she disappear in front of you, or did you not find her in the first place?"

"We didn't see her at the beginning, she didn't seem to stay here tonight."

Now that the location of that room is known, the director of the Department of Mysteries is not that important, and it doesn't matter if he can be caught or not.

"Go and complete the task assigned by the master first."

Bella walked first, and the other Death Eaters filed in with her.

Labastan led a few Death Eaters to separate from the main force consciously, and tried to open all accessible rooms to find Sherlock's whereabouts.

The rest passed through the Hall of Time. Bella pushed open the door of the Hall of Prophecy with a clear goal, leading the Death Eaters into the room full of crystal balls.

The villains violently pushed several rows of wooden frames blocking the way to the ground, and the crystal ball on top fell to the ground, and there was a sound of "cracking" glass shattering.

They kept walking in without stopping, until they also came to the wall with three doors.

According to the picture seen from Mrs. Selwyn's memory, Bella fixed her eyes on the black door that Sherlock led Eddie and Amy into, and pushed it open with all her strength!

It was pitch black behind the door, and there was nothing to see.

Those Death Eaters who searched for Sherlock's whereabouts in the Hall of Time also returned without success.

"No one was found."

"Leave them alone, let's go in."

Under her leadership, the Death Eaters cast their wand lighting spells, and then they walked into the cold drafty room together.

"Amy is a little sleepy."

Amy, who was held in Eddie's arms, leaned on her father's shoulder and murmured to herself.

From the very beginning when she said she got sand in her eyes, it was clear that something was wrong with Amy.

Sherlock frowned.

"What just got blown into Amy's eye?"

Eddie recalled.

"It's the sand in that hourglass, the biggest one against the wall."

Suddenly Sherlock frowned even tighter.

"The things in there are definitely not sand! We must get out as soon as possible, otherwise Amy's situation may cause trouble!"

They have been walking in this dark room for more than ten minutes, but they still haven't come to the end.

This room is very abnormal, and the darkness is like magic, squeezing all kinds of light sources.

Sherlock scattered more than a dozen wands and used the Illumination Charm together. The visibility was less than one meter, and he couldn't see the road ahead no matter how far away.

The cold wind was blowing around them, and the room seemed to be separated by countless small grids, making people twist and turn inside like a maze, unable to find a way out.

Sherlock also tried to destroy those grids with spells, but none of them succeeded.

Soon they came to a fork in the road, and there were two roads ahead for them to choose.

"That way?" Eddie asked.

Sherlock also entered here for the first time, but in terms of choice and luck, one of them seemed to be on the hook.

Sherlock asked softly to Amy, who was leaning on Eddie's shoulder and dazed with her eyes closed.

"Do you think we should go left or right, Amy?"

Amy seemed to be extremely sleepy, but she still had some weak consciousness, and murmured.

"Amy. I think we should go to the left."

With her answer, Sherlock and Eddie did not hesitate, and then walked to the left. Amy chose the direction of all the intersections they encountered in the future, and kept moving forward.

They walked on for about half an hour, and after turning a corner, they saw a faint light.

Eddie and Sherlock held their breath at the same time and looked at each other.

someone!

The wizard holding the wand lighting spell also saw them, and Sherlock's side was much brighter, so it was easy to see their faces clearly.

"John!"

A familiar female voice sounded, and then the witch raised her wand and approached them.

At this time, Sherlock saw the witch's face clearly, it was Mrs. Selwyn!

"Why are you here?" Sherlock asked suspiciously.

Lady Selwyn was pale, gasping for breath, and looked flustered.

"There's a door in my office that leads directly to here." She looked at Sherlock with a guilty look on her face. "I shouldn't have done you wrong, John, you didn't open that door. There must have been someone else that night." Someone got in, he peeked at my memory, and gave it to the Death Eaters!"

Sherlock is naturally not in the mood to worry about those things now, and his heart sank when he heard Mrs. Selwyn's words.

"Can this room get out of the Department of Mysteries or the Ministry of Magic?"

"No, this room is a place to hide things. Some of the most important things of the Department of Mysteries are hidden here."

Hearing what she said, Sherlock's face darkened completely.

They are in the wrong place!
Not only is this not the way out of the Ministry of Magic, it is very likely to be the ultimate goal of the Death Eaters on their trip!

The more you go inside, the more you are throwing yourself into a trap.

Eddie wasn't stupid, he heard the meaning too.

"What should we do now?"

They have already come here, and it is impossible to go back the same way. Even if they are lucky and don't encounter Death Eaters on the way, it will be past twelve o'clock in front of the door, and the door can't be opened at all!

Sherlock didn't hesitate for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said.

"Then we can only continue walking inside, we must find the room they want to find one step faster than the Death Eaters!"

He turned to look at Lady Selwyn.

"Do you know where the room they're looking for is?"

Mrs. Selwyn said with a pale face and nodded.

"I got back part of the memory before I entered this maze. I also know the room the Dark Lord and the others are looking for, but I haven't got the memory of the thing inside."

Her tone was dignified, and even her voice was trembling slightly.

"But what I know is that they must not let them get that thing, otherwise the most terrible consequences will happen!"

"You come and lead the way, we have to go there as fast as possible, and we must hurry before the Death Eaters arrive!"

With Mrs. Selwyn's leadership, their next move will undoubtedly be much faster.

But they could also clearly hear those messy footsteps faintly coming from behind.

The Death Eaters were not very far away, but they couldn't see each other because of the light-absorbing darkness.

After walking forward for 10 minutes, I finally came to a space like a hall.

When Sherlock and the others set foot here, the chandeliers on the ceiling lit up one by one, expelling the darkness that had always shrouded the maze.

Before them there were two doors, black and white, and Mrs. Selwyn pointed to the black door on the left.

"The room they are looking for is behind this door!"

Sherlock tried to push the black door open, but the door remained motionless as if welded to the surrounding walls.

"Can you open it?"

Lady Selwyn held out her wand, her palms wet with sweat.

"I need time."

"How long will it take?"

"At least 10 minutes!"

Sherlock sighed, and controlled the hundreds of wands around him to turn back together, the footsteps coming from the darkness became louder and louder.

"I'll try to buy you that time."

Eddie put down Amy who had fallen asleep, and said with firm eyes.

"I will go with you!"
