章節 362: Chapter 362: Ministry of Magic and Knockturn Alley, Exploration Missions and Killing Monsters for Equipment

Andy was not indecisive since he had already made a decision, so naturally, the next step was to take action immediately.

Firstly, Andy needed to make a cauldron of polyjuice potion.

This is easy. What's more, Andy had also obtained Snape's textbook from his school days - Advanced Potion-Making.

After preparing the materials needed to make the potion, Andy only used half a day to complete the preliminary work.

Next, Andy only needed to wait patiently for a month to get a cauldron of polyjuice potion.

There was also still some Truth Potion left.

In the second year, Andy had specially made a vial of Truth Potion to deal with Lockhart, but in the end, he didn't use it at all - only a little bit of it was used when dealing with Ron.

After preparing the magic potion, Andy still needed to snoop around for clear information about the Ministry of Magic.

In addition to the map of the Ministry of Magic, Andy also needed to get the night shift duty roster of the Ministry of Magic's employees and information on the guards.

This was equally not difficult.

The next day, Andy changed into a decent outfit and walked into the Ministry of Magic in a big way.

"Hello, how can I help you?" An employee of the Ministry of Magic asked amiably.

"Sir, good morning. Excuse me, can I visit the Ministry of Magic?" Andy asked with a curious face.

"Of course!"

As a matter of fact, no one would stop the request of a young wizard who wanted to visit the Ministry of Magic.

The employee pointed to the registration desk in the Atrium of the Ministry of Magic and said, "You can go there and ask for specific information. Other than some classified departments that are not allowed to be visited, you can freely visit all the other places."

"Little friend, do you want to work at the Ministry of Magic after graduation?"

Andy nodded his head and said with a yearning face, "Yes! So I want to see what the place where I will work in the future is like."

"Then you have to study hard." The employee laughed.

Andy similarly smiled, "I think my grades are pretty good."

The employee patted Andy's shoulder, "Then we can be colleagues from now on."

"Thanks, sir. I'll go over then." After Andy finished speaking, he nodded his head towards the employee and then walked in the direction of the registration counter.

After queuing for a while at the registration counter, not many people came to the Ministry of Magic at this time of the day, so it was soon Andy's turn.

"Hello!"

Andy asked politely, "I would like to tour the Ministry of Magic, is there anything I need to pay attention to?"

The Ministry of Magic, as the government authority of the magic world, would be visited by many wizards every day for their business, and Andy had also been here more than once.

It was only that when he came to the Ministry of Magic in the past, Andy had followed others and had not paid any special attention to the layout of the place.

"Visiting?"

The employee in charge of registration glanced at Andy, and then very enthusiastically pointed out, "You will see a map of the Ministry of Magic when you walk through there. Except for some confidential departments, you can go everywhere else."

The employee in charge of registration pointed to a place and said, "Also, don't disturb other people's work."

"Of course!"

Andy nodded and asked, "By the way, if I accidentally get lost or go to the wrong place, what should I do?"

The employee in charge of registration smiled at his words, "You can just find someone to ask for help. I don't think anyone would refuse to help a lost child."

Age was indeed an advantage for Andy.

"Thanks!" Andy said with an innocent look.

After making the registration, Andy followed that employee's instructions and quickly found the topographical map of the Ministry of Magic.

It had to be said that the topography of the Ministry of Magic was highly cluttered, there were many lifts here, but the movement rules of these lifts were more complicated than the staircases of Hogwarts.

The good thing was that these lifts were fully automated, and they could take you anywhere you wanted to go.

There were also a lot of Ministry of Magic notes and the latest news posted next to the map, and it was worth mentioning that the Ministry of Magic's night duty roster was posted here as well.

'How arrogant and naive ...'

Andy sighed, before quickly jotting down the Ministry of Magic's topographical map and night duty roster.

'Next, all that's left is the Ministry of Magic's guard information.' Andy thought to himself.

If nothing else, the Ministry of Magic's guard information should be kept in the Auror's office, which happened to be one of the classified departments where visits were not allowed.

Voldemort had already disappeared for twelve whole years, and the Ministry of Magic had long since reached the point of 'people don't know how to fight' due to peace and laziness.

But this definitely did not include Auror's office.

If you want to enter the Auror's office, you can't just rely on your age and be cute - the Aurors won't show you any personal favour.

In particular, the Aurors of these sessions were all trained by Mad-Eye Moody. Andy had heard of Mad-Eye Moody's reputation, and it was said that half of the Death Eaters in Azkaban had been apprehended by him.

Not to mention the Apparition, Andy guessed that even Animagus Transformation couldn't let anyone mix in.

'Well ...'

Andy pondered for a moment, and suddenly a name came to mind.

Dawlish, an Auror with good grades but poor practical combat skills.

Defeat him, and then ask for some information using a Truth Potion.

Andy deliberated for a moment and thought that this idea was not bad. But the exact time of action would have to wait until Sirius was captured.

After 'visiting' the Ministry of Magic, Andy came to Diagon Alley and prepared to enter Knockturn Alley from here and obtain a wand there.

Knockturn Alley was the supposedly darkest place on the surface of the British magic world.

There were many shops related to dark magic here, specialising in acquiring and selling magical items with strange and bizarre characteristics. In addition, there were also some wizards with eccentric personalities living here.

Many people believed that Knockturn Alley was the land of dark wizards.

It was not wrong to say so, but it was not entirely true either.

In fact, Knockturn Alley was the slum of the magic world, and there were only two types of people living there.

One type is the lowest class of the magic world, for example: wizards with brain problems, werewolf wizards who are rejected by the mainstream society, and so on.

The other kind, on the other hand, were the shopkeepers of the dark magic shops - they were the kind of people who belonged to the category of people who absolutely could not be offended, and were also the true dark wizards.

As a matter of fact, a real dark wizard would never be like this old witch in front of him, showing a mouthful of big yellow teeth, and pulling Andy with a warm face, wanting to take Andy to play a fun game.

She also claimed that it was definitely a joy that Andy had never experienced in his life.

"Obliviate!"

Andy whispered the incantation and the old witch fell to the ground with a calm face.

"Huh~"

Andy searched her body with a face full of disgust; and then rummaged through and found the old witch's wand.

"What are you doing?"

A dirty middle-aged wizard stood at the entrance of the alley, he looked at Andy with wide eyes, "Ha! A young wizard who has done something bad. You've been caught by me, come with me!"

Andy quickly raised his wand.

"Obliviate"
