The silent and dignified atmosphere flowed quietly in the room as time passed.

"What does he mean, what does he want?" Benji Fenwick sullenly trembled with anger.

"Perhaps..." I heard Minerva's trembling voice, her face was pale, and there was still water in her eyes, she didn't want to take another look at the blood-stained package, "Maybe we should take that Hand over two people and exchange hostages with him, don't you? He doesn't know that two of his men are with us."

"Get those two out and we're really done," I interjected.Even if they were let go, Alastor Moody might not come back safely—we don't know Riddle's location.

"Then what can we do?" Edgar Burns sighed heavily, "The longer the time drags on, the worse it will be for us, and now it seems...they can do anything, Alastor is there I still don't know what it's like to be tortured..."

I thought for a long time, stood up under their gathered gazes, went down the stairs and opened the door of the underground warehouse.

The two people were far away, tied to a stool, and unconscious due to the effect of the water of life and death.Without saying a word, I rolled up the sleeves of those two people, clean and without any marks.

I frowned.

"Quick Appearance!" I picked up my wand and pointed it at Quilan Langman's arm. After a few seconds, her forearm began to turn black, and the familiar mark of the Death Eater emerged little by little.I did the same with Baden McConaughey on the other side, and sure enough, McConaughey also had the mark.

Dumbledore and others followed behind.

"Hmm." Langman frowned suddenly, her eyelids moved, and she began to struggle. I saw the Death Eater's mark on her arm became more and more clear, and it soon turned red, and the same At the same time, McConaughey's markings had undergone the same change.

"How is this going?"

"Call." I whispered back.

Without much thought, I took off the ring I got from Mr. Yongmu Lin, and handed it directly to Dumbledore——now is not the time to stay by Riddle's side, I don't I don't want to carry this important thing with me all the time, in case something happens to me accidentally...

I haven't forgotten that I was entrusted by Mr. Lin, and I still need to bring it to the Lin family, so nothing can go wrong.

"This is?" Dumbledore asked.

"The things Mr. Yongmu Lin entrusted me to keep..." I said.

"Lin?" Dumbledore scrutinized the ring carefully, "The Lin family's time implement... have you ever used it?"

"No." I looked back at him, "When do I need to return it to the Lin family, and..." I remembered the strand of hair that dried up instantly when I encountered one of the time vortexes, "I don't I’m too daring to use it, and I don’t know how to use it.” I turned my gaze back to the red mark on Longman’s left arm, “Let her go.”

The others looked at me incredulously.

"I will transform and hide on her body. This is the only way to find Riddle's location now." I said.

"He's waiting for you, Ashley." Dumbledore shook his head, "Have you forgotten? You said he wanted to kill you... the first time you escaped, you may not be so lucky every time .”

I hesitated.

"Is there a Blessed Elixir?" I asked.Dumbledore stared at me for a few seconds before throwing me a vial.

"Felix Elixir only has a twelve-hour time limit. Moreover, although Felicity Elixir can greatly improve your abilities in all aspects, it does not guarantee that you will succeed..." Dumbledore said, "I think we need to There's a code word, Ashley."

He thought for a while, and the tip of his wand swiped in the air, writing out a string of flame-like red characters, and then with a wave of his wand, they instantly turned into sparks and scattered in the air.

"Say 'Phoenix Fire,' and we'll know where you are."

I nodded.

"I could go with you," said Fenwick, "for extra security." He gulped down the Polyjuice Potion and transformed into Baden McConaughey.After deliberating for a while, I agreed to his proposal.

Fenwick and I helped Longman outside, and the others disappeared, leaving only the three of us.I turned into a bird and hid in Longman's pocket, and Fenwick woke her up.

"Baden? Why are we outside?" Longman got up from the ground and looked down at the still red Death Eater mark.

"The master took their men and offered us in exchange, so they set us free," said Fenwick. "He's calling us, and we should hurry."

The apparition sounded, and when I poked my head out again, there was already a dark room around me, and Fenwick followed Longman.I quietly flew out of her pocket, transforming into a human without sound.

"Passed out."

Fenwick supported Longman's body, and I raised my head and poured myself Polyjuice Potion.He and I came to the window, I observed the corridor here, and then looked out of the window, there was only a body of water outside the window, there was nothing iconic, and I didn't recognize the place.

"What to do with her?" Fenwick asked me.

I glanced at the imprint on her arm, which had now quieted down again, turning into an ordinary black color—Riddle was indeed nearby.I took out Longman's wand and threw it into the grass outside to prevent her from using magic to reveal to Riddle that we are here after she wakes up.

"Throw it down for her," I said.We managed to lift her to the window and pushed her down, and she rolled twice along the ground and into the water.

"Would you drown?" Fenwick poked his head.

"Let's go." I didn't respond to him, I clenched my hand and then let go, put it in my pocket, took a deep breath, and walked ahead.

It looks very deserted here, more like an abandoned house, we walked in the corridor for a long time without seeing a single person.

From the innermost room on the first floor, several people were talking. I guessed that Riddle was holding some kind of Death Eater meeting.I pulled Fenwick back slowly, and then went up the stairs to the second floor.

Instead of using the identities of these two people to answer his call, it would be better to take this opportunity to save people—since Riddle and his Death Eaters are here, no matter how you think about it, Moody should also be locked up here. Inside the house.

Passing by every room with a closed door, we would approach to listen to the sound inside, and thus quietly explored to the third floor.Fenwick and I searched separately. As I was walking, I suddenly heard a faint coughing sound. I hurriedly approached the door of the room where the sound came from, and put my ears on it.

"Don't waste your time..."

It's Moody.

There was a rustling sound, and I couldn't hear what they said in a low voice, and then a scream that I tried my best to restrain pierced straight into my ears, and my heart suddenly tugged.

"Fire of the Phoenix..." I whispered this word, hoping to let other members of the Order of the Phoenix know about this location.

Just as I was thinking about how to save people, someone suddenly grabbed my arm from behind and dragged me into a dark room next to me. As soon as I took out my wand with my other hand, my eyes lit up. I saw Lumoes coming from the tip of the man's wand.He held the tip of the stick in his hand, and the light only leaked partly from the gap between his fingers, so the range was not wide, and he could barely see his face clearly.

"Alphad?" I was astonished.

"Go, Ashley, and your friend, get out of here now." His tone seemed urgent.

"Do you know who I am?" The effect of the compound decoction didn't pass...I had an ominous premonition.

"He knows, Ashley - I don't have time to tell you, Moody's not here, it's at Greenwich Pier, it's a trap." He didn't explain that much, and pushed me away after rushing through, Fluorescent The Blink Charm went off, and he disappeared into the darkness.

My shock was beyond words, my heart was pounding, I didn't stay long, I ran to the other side and grabbed Fenwick who didn't know what was going on.

"The Moody here is fake, go to Greenwich Pier—" Before I finished my sentence, a spell was shot from the front of the dark corridor, and I quickly resisted it.I saw a black-robed figure materialize, but according to his wand, it wasn't Riddle.

I pulled him back and ran back, spells came one after another, Fenwick was deadlocked with him, and I smashed the window at the end of the corridor with the Shattering Curse.

I turned my head, and the air in the distance suddenly twisted, and a few more figures appeared behind that person, and I instantly realized that they had already prepared, as Alphard said, this was a trap.

I suddenly remembered the "Fire of the Phoenix" I had just read - Dumbledore and the others definitely received the signal, and if they came based on my position, it would probably be a fierce battle.

I ignored the fact that it had been so long since they hadn't rushed over.All I can do now is panic.

I gave Fenwick a push: "Go to the rest of the Order, don't let them come—"

"What about you?"

"Come on!"

Fortunately, he didn't dawdle at this time, and seized the opportunity to jump on the window, intending to jump off.

A spell was thrown straight at Fenwick.

"careful!"

I was taken aback, and in the nick of time, I used the Levitation Charm to gather a bunch of shards of glass between Fenwick and the spell.

"Luminescence!" Fenwick shouted the spell decisively, and the light illuminated half of the corridor, and under the effect of the Fluorescence spell, the glass reflected a dazzling light, and the spell was instantly bent to the other side. Angle, I dodged back a bit, it hit the wall fiercely, the wall exploded suddenly, and the gravel fell to the ground.

I breathed a sigh of relief.Fenwick jumped, and in a few moments disappeared without a trace.

I turned my head and saw the man who cast the spell - Nott.

He looked surprised, but his wand held down—after the spell was deflected, he didn't try anything to stop it until Fenwick managed to escape.

His gaze turned to me, his expression as cold as ever.

"You've been tricked," he said.

I didn't have time to think, and planned to transform and fly away, but the moment I thought of this, the surrounding air produced an invisible pressure, which restricted my whole body, my arms were trembling, and I couldn't even touch a single feather. pop up.

My back is almost drenched in cold sweat—there is a spell that restricts transformation in this mansion.

It's for me.

Dumbledore was right, Riddle had been waiting for me to take the bait.

Felicity Potion, hurry up and get some effect!I meditate in my heart.

I had no choice but to give up my plan of transforming and jumped directly from the window.

"Avada Kedavra!" Green light shot from the tip of a Death Eater's wand that suddenly appeared by the window, filling my terrified eyes, and I tried to block it, but it was too fast—

"Bang!" A muffled sound rang in my ears accompanied by a wailing sound, and the fiery red feathers flew in all directions. I opened my eyes wide, staggered a few steps and fell to the ground, reaching out to catch Fox who was blocking me. .

Fox lay stiff in my arms, but soon, its body began to burn and charred, just like the last time I saw it, new feathers began to grow, it shook its head, spread its wings from my arms It flew out and circled a few times in the sky.

I looked around quickly and saw no one, Dumbledore wasn't here, only Fawkes.

"Apparition!" I hurriedly used Apparition to escape from here, but a hand suddenly appeared in front of me—a hand protruding from the black smoke, and it made a closing gesture. The twisted air stagnated for an instant, and I was trapped in it, unable to move, and my whole body was in pain like a knife.

Then, the figure gradually emerged from the lingering black smoke——Tom Riddle.He finally made a move.

I bit my lip and hung in the air in a very strange state, unable to speak a word, unable to move a single finger.

"Master." The circle of Death Eaters bowed their heads behind him, his eyes moved away from me, and stopped on the Death Eater who had just used the Killing Curse, with a flash of hostility in his eyes.

The Death Eater fell to the ground trembling, and I heard a piercing scream in my ears.

"You are allowed to stop people, but you are not allowed to kill people."

"I'm sorry... Lord Dark Lord... I don't know..."

Riddle ignored him, letting him scratch the Death Eater's mark and suffer from the Cruciatus Curse.

The howling sound became the background sound, which was heinous.

His cold, scarlet eyes stared straight into mine.

"The bird flew into the cage by itself, Ashley."
