"I remember he was the youngest warrior...that's amazing."
Then Rhodes seemed to remember something and casually clicked the notebook next to him. The notebook automatically turned to the latest page. He turned his head and took a look.
"Yes, that's right. He received a warning letter seven days ago for using a spell in the Leaky Cauldron...
"Wait, the Leaky Cauldron?"
Rhodes' voice suddenly rose a little, and he looked at the contents of the notebook in disbelief.
"Merlin's beard, this is the first time I've come across such a ridiculous reason. If you can't even use spells in the Leaky Cauldron, why don't they take away the wands?"
"Maybe because no one would agree," said Chris.
"Of course no one will agree." Rhodes sneered and closed the notebook, then looked at Kyle again, "Well kid, in my opinion you didn't make any mistakes, so you don't need to be nervous.
"Amelia from the Law Enforcement Department is a fair person. I'm sure she won't punish you for such a ridiculous reason."
"Thank you." Kyle said with a smile.
It can be seen that the wizard in front of him is also a good person.
"So can we go in now?" Chris asked. "Sorry, I'm in a hurry."
"Of course, go ahead."
Rhodes knocked on a raised area on the counter with his wand, and the window next to it immediately extended to the left and right, revealing a passage.
"Thank you," Chris said.
He walked in with Kyle.
Behind the passage was a long corridor lined with fireplaces needed for the Floo Network, but it was still very early and all the fireplaces were extinguished.
And in the middle of the corridor, a man was standing there waiting for them.
"The time is just right." Diana came over and said to Chris, "Wait until half past eight, then come to the floor of the Department of Mysteries to pick him up."
"Okay," Chris said.
"Now follow me."
Diana led Kyle out of the fireplace hallway and into the elevator.
There was no one here either, only a cold voice occasionally announcing which floor they were on.
"Remember, don't run around or look around, just follow me."
In the elevator, Diana instructed: "And no matter what you see in there, don't tell anyone else after you get out, including the Weasley brothers and the girl named Connor."
"Okay, I understand." Kyle nodded.
As soon as he finished speaking, Kyle heard a cold voice.
"Department of Mysteries."
"We're here." Diana was the first to walk out of the elevator, and Kyle quickly followed.
He had been here once before, but that time he turned left and took the stairs after exiting the elevator, but this time he followed Diana through the empty corridor and came to the simple door at the end.
"Remember, don't look around or walk around." Diana reminded again, then pushed open the door and walked in.
Behind the door was a large round room. It looked like it had been washed with ink. Everything, including the ceiling and the floor, was black. There were some branch-shaped candles dotted between the walls, but the flames were blue and cold, without any warmth at all.
The doors on the walls were all black and had no markings, and they all looked exactly the same.
But Diana just glanced at it and walked straight towards a door in front.
Next, Kyle felt as if he had returned to the last competition of the Triwizard Tournament. This place was simply a maze.
Everywhere was the same color, the same buildings, the same doors. If he relaxed a little, he might forget where he came from.
After walking for nearly ten minutes, Kyle finally saw something different.
It was a huge water tank that filled the entire room, and occasionally you could see things that looked like brains inside.
He had seen this thing before. When interrogating Peter Pettigrew, Diana used it to discover the secret that Peter was the secret-keeper.
But at that time, the water tank was only as big as a table, much smaller than what we see now.
Further ahead was a room shrouded in golden air currents. As Kyle walked in it, he could always hear a ticking sound, like the ticking of an hour hand, or the sound of water dripping from an hourglass.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but as Kyle walked, he suddenly felt as if he had grown taller. The clothes that originally fit him perfectly became smaller, and he felt that his shoulders were a bit tight, and part of his ankles were exposed.
But after a few seconds, the clothes became bigger again, and the trouser legs dragged on the ground, almost tripping him.
When Diana pushed open the door at the end and Kyle stepped over the threshold, everything returned to normal in an instant.
At the same time, Diana stopped and did not move forward.
“It’s right here,” she said.
Kyle looked up and found that they were in a huge, cave-like place.
There were steps of stone benches all around them, extending downward at a steep angle, like a Quidditch World Cup stadium, and they were standing at the very top.
Looking down from here, you can see a high stone platform with a stone arch on it. It looks old, ancient and dilapidated.
"bring it on."
Diana pulled Kyle and took a step forward.
With just one step, they crossed the rows of stairs and appeared on the stone platform.
Apparition?
No, it shouldn't be. Apparition wouldn't be that quiet.
But what would that be…
Kyle couldn't help but be a little curious, but seeing Diana's serious expression, he resisted the urge to ask.
"Come this way."
Diana pulled Kyle to a position in the middle of the stone arch.
There were ripples on the stone gate, like a vertical water surface, and behind it was a slowly floating white mist, making it impossible to see what was inside.

Chapter 593 Wand Selection of Magic Power
Looking at the stone arch in front of him, Kyle always felt that it was a little familiar.
Oh, yes, the Big Four.
Kyle remembered that when he first saw the Big Four in the secret room, the snake-like statues had formed a similar arch.
Including the shape and the ripples like water waves in the arch, they are almost identical.
Wait, he wasn't going to have to meet the Big Four again, was he? Could the Department of Mysteries even do that?
Just as Kyle was daydreaming, he heard Diana's voice again.
"What spell did you use when you killed that Death Eater?"
"Fire Curse." Kyle said subconsciously.
The corner of Diana's mouth twitched visibly.
She took a few deep breaths, took out her wand and pointed it at the stone door, "Now, use the Sharpfire Curse again."
"Here?" Kyle hesitated.
That's Fiendfyre, what if it burns this place down? And this is the Ministry of Magic, is it okay to use dark magic directly?
"Use it if I tell you to," Diana urged.
"Ok."
There was no way. Since Diana said so, Kyle could only take out his magic wand, wave it gently, and conjure up a giant dragon made of fire.
Silent Fire Curse?
Looking at Kyle's skilled appearance, Diana's expression changed slightly again.
It is rare for someone of Kyle's age to learn the Fiery Curse, but he can even cast it using a silent spell.
For a moment, Diana didn't know whether she should be proud.
This is indeed something to be proud of, but the Fierce Fire Curse... seems a little inappropriate.
Then she shook her head and pointed her wand at the stone door.
As if some kind of shackles were unlocked, the white light gradually broke away from the stone gate and, under Diana's guidance, floated to the vicinity of the fire dragon formed by the Fierce Fire Curse.
Kyle's eyes suddenly widened.
The fierce fire in front of him suddenly changed, from an uncontrollable flame to a dancing blue ball of light.
"This is the original form of magic," Diana explained.
It was the first time Kyle had seen such a situation, and he felt curious.
At this moment, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be something else on the blue light ball, or the color there was a little darker.
Although it is only as thin as a hair, you can still see it if you look closely.
But just when Kyle couldn't help but take two steps forward to see more clearly, another stream of white light surged over, gently surrounding the blue magic power, like a stream of water, washing away the mixed color attached to it.
"Okay." Diana said, waving her wand again, and the surrounding white light retreated back into the stone gate.
At the same time, the magic power turned back into a flawless, crystal blue color.
But before Kyle could take a closer look, a golden-red flame ignited on it.
"All curses end!"
Diana waved her hand and extinguished the fierce fire.
"What is that?" Kyle couldn't help but ask.
"Blood debt." Diana said calmly: "When a wizard ends the life of another wizard, the magic power will change to a certain extent. This is why I know that you have killed Death Eaters."
"There's such a thing?" Kyle frowned, "Why have I never heard of it?"
