"Ha——"
Andy shouted, violently breaking the magic link with Scrimgeour, and then raised his wand and quickly waved it towards the other four Aurors.
Boom boom boom——
The Blasting Curse was unleashed, and the sound of explosions could be heard continuously in the circular room. The four Aurors could only use the Shield Charm to barely resist.
Glancing at Scrimgeour's casting movements in the corner of his eye, Andy swung his wand sharply, using the Shield Charm to deflect Scrimgeour's Disarming Charm onto one of the Aurors.
Bang!
The Auror flew backwards in an instant.
Andy's eyebrows shot up.
In fact, both sides now had reservations.
Andy didn't want to kill anyone, so he couldn't go all out.
But the opposite side was actually in the same situation.
Firstly, this was the Department of Mysteries, and the Aurors here could not use too much destructive magic.
Secondly, John Dawlish and his wife were still in Andy's hands, and they could not ignore the lives of their colleagues, so they had to capture him alive.
Whether it was for the safety of Dawlish and his wife or to interrogate him for more information, in the eyes of the Aurors, a living Andy was undoubtedly more valuable.
Since both sides had concerns, things were undoubtedly much easier.
Andy gave Scrimgeour a provocative look before swinging his wand, instantly unleashing the Fiendfyre Curse.
To continue pretending to be a Death Eater, Andy deliberately condensed the fire into the form of a giant snake. Besides, under Andy's full concentration, the Fiendfyre Curse quickly got out of control.
'Crazy!' Scrimgeour's eyes were bloodshot.
It was precisely due to this possibility that he had wanted to capture Andy without confrontation. After all, in Scrimgeour's opinion, Andy really did have no way out at that time.
Even now, Scrimgeour did not think that Andy could escape from the Ministry of Magic.
In addition to the Aurors guarding the Ministry, there were also numerous employees on the night shift. Although they were not strong, they were numerous. As long as they were organised, they were still a formidable fighting force.
Under these circumstances, 'exchanging hostages' was undoubtedly the best outcome.
In the meantime, Scrimgeour could use the exchange period to obtain some information.
But Andy's counterattack undoubtedly made Scrimgeour realise one thing: the Death Eaters were all crazy. In a desperate situation, they could do anything insane.
Just like Sirius Black, who blew up an entire street before being arrested.
"Finite Incantatem!" Scrimgeour shouted.
While the Aurors were still busy countering the Fiendfyre Curse, Andy quickly opened the black door and then instantly dashed inside.
"Phew,"
Andy let out a sigh of relief as he closed the door and rolled up his sleeves to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
As an ordinary person, this was the first time Andy had done something so crazy, and his heart had been pounding like crazy. On the surface, he appeared calm, but inside, he was already extremely nervous.
It was so dangerous!
Andy thought to himself, 'Next time I visit the Department of Mysteries, I must be better prepared.'
'At least I need to improve my strength!'
It wasn't that Andy wanted to die, but Andy hadn't yet obtained the research materials from the Department of Mysteries. There was obviously no chance of getting that today, so he would just have to come back next time.
Five against one, right?
Next time, I'll take on five at once and overpower you all!
Patting the pocket under the undetectable extension charm, Andy took out Kreacher.
"Let's go!" Andy took Kreacher's hand.
With a light sound, Andy and Kreacher returned to the Shrieking Shack near Hogsmeade Village.
'It's safe!' Andy thought to himself.
Looking at Kreacher, Andy quickly raised his wand, "Obliviate!"
Bang!
Kreacher fell to the ground.
Andy looked at Kreacher, and after a moment of silence, he kneeled down and placed his wand against Kreacher's temple.
This was an advanced use of the Memory Charm, which could deeply modify a person's memories. In any case, at least Kreacher had to be returned to 12 Grimmauld Place.
As for whether Sirius would suspect Kreacher...
Andy wasn't worried about that at all.
Because Sirius already thought that Kreacher was a bit crazy, as long as he didn't find out that Kreacher had left tonight, he wouldn't suspect anything.
After modifying Kreacher's memory, Andy took Kreacher back to Grimmauld Place and left it in a hidden corner.
He glanced at the Black family mansion.
Andy was going to come back tomorrow to see if Sirius doubted anything.
After doing all this, Andy dug a hole in the ground and buried Dawlish's wand in the soil.
Taking out his own wand, Andy used the Apparition charm to go home.
***
While Andy was lying in bed fast asleep, the Ministry of Magic had completely gone out of control.
Minister Fudge rushed from his home to the Ministry of Magic overnight, summoning Scrimgeour and Dawlish to ask about the matter.
"What on earth is going on?" Fudge felt like he was about to go crazy.
For crying out loud, he had only been Minister for less than four years.
In that time, Azkaban had been attacked once, Sirius Black had escaped from prison, and now even Death Eaters had broken into the Ministry and fought a battle with the Aurors inside.
But the worst thing was that he hadn't even been able to catch a single one of them.
The culprit who attacked Azkaban escaped, and there has been no clue so far.
More than a month has passed since Sirius Black escaped from prison, and now it seems as if he never existed. The Ministry of Magic can't even find a trace of Sirius.
Tonight, someone else infiltrated the Ministry of Magic.
As the Head of the Auror Office, Scrimgeour's first choice was to close the Ministry's fireplace and personally led the others to block the Death Eater in the Department of Mysteries.
Then he still let the person escape.
Fudge stared at Scrimgeour, wondering which of them was more useless: him or Scrimgeour.
"The man was impersonating John..."
Scrimgeour was also ashamed, but he still couldn't figure out how the man had disappeared from the Ministry.
He couldn't Apparate, the fireplace had been closed, all the exits in the Ministry were guarded, and no one on the night shift had left.
After the battle in the Department of Mysteries, Scrimgeour turned the entire Ministry upside down. But he didn't find a single hair, and the person seemed to have disappeared into thin air, without a trace.
Scrimgeour recounted what he knew: "Unless that person can Apparate in the Ministry, he must still be hiding in the Ministry."
Fudge nodded upon hearing this.
If the person was hiding somewhere in the Ministry of Magic, that would be perfect—because they still had a chance of catching the person.
"Continue the search!"
Fudge ordered, then turned to Dawlish and asked, "John, what's the situation at your end? How did that person attack you?"
