Missing person!

Andy was stunned when he saw the missing person notice in the castle corridor.
What's going on?
I'm missing?!
How come I didn't know about this?
"These brats are so idle, I swear," Andy muttered helplessly.
Are these young wizards really that bored that they have nothing better to do than to post a missing person's notice of me?
Why not just report it to the Ministry of Magic!
"What about class?" Hermione also sounded a little helpless.
"Let's use the Confundus Charm!"
Andy shrugged, "What else can we do?"
"Don't let me find out who did this! Then I'll put him in a sack and make him think about what he's done in the school's hospital wing!" Andy said this with clenched teeth.
"Forget it."
Hermione sighed, "In a few days, no one will pay any attention to us."
"I refuse!" Andy looked stubborn.
Hermione: "..."
Never mind; do whatever you want!
Besides... she also wants to hit someone!
***
Who did this?
You can find out by asking anyone!
No one at Hogwarts could have come up with such a stupid stunt, except for the Weasley twins.
So...
The next morning, the Weasley twins had to go to the Great Hall for breakfast with their piggy heads.
Real piggy heads!
Long snout and big ears, the kind that made them grunt when they spoke.
Andy had already warned them that there was no point in going to Professor McGonagall. Even if she did change them back, Andy could change them into pigs again.
As for Andy and Hermione...
They had literally disappeared.
Thanks to the Confundus Charm, the young wizards would simply ignore them, even if they appeared in the Great Hall or wandered around the corridors.
Magic really could work wonders!
"We'll just have to live a few days incognito."
In the Great Hall, by the Ravenclaw table, Andy glanced back at the laughing Weasley twins and said with clenched teeth, "I can't believe how they don't feel embarrassed!"
"You're so childish!" Hermione rolled her eyes.
"They brought this on themselves!" Andy was indignant.
Just then, the owl arrived with the day's mail.
Andy received the latest issue of the Daily Prophet, a letter from home, and a small, exquisitely carved box that looked expensive.
"What is this?"
Andy asked, surprised. "I haven't bought this."
"It's..."
Hermione pointed to a symbol on the box and exclaimed, "Andy, it's the symbol of the Deathly Hallows!"
"Who sent it to you?"
At this moment, Hermione thought of all kinds of plots and schemes.
"I've seen it in the cinema!"
Hermione's expression was grave. "The protagonist inexplicably received strange gifts and was then involved in one amazing adventure after another!"
"Andy, someone knows you're investigating the Deathly Hallows!"
"The one who sent you this must have an ulterior motive!"
Andy: "…"
Andy looked at Hermione with a strange expression on his face.
Why are you so excited?
Is your sense of adventure burning?
Do you miss the extreme tension from before?
Ignoring Hermione for the moment, Andy had a look at the symbol on the box and couldn't help but swear inwardly, 'Is Grindelwald crazy? When sending me something, he even had the nerve to stamp the symbol of the Acolytes on it?'
Is he wishing to die?
The Acolytes, also known as the Alliance, is the name the wizarding world uses to refer to Grindelwald's followers.
Grindelwald is truly shameless, taking the mark of the Deathly Hallows as his own.
In the past, it was fine.
But now that Grindelwald has made a comeback, the mark of the Deathly Hallows will soon become taboo. Anyone who uses this mark will be suspected of having a tie to Grindelwald.
"Hermione..."
Andy turned to Hermione, asking with a look of confusion, "Do you think I'm easy to bully?"
"Huh?"
Hermione was taken aback. "What did I do? I didn't bully you, did I?"
"But someone is teasing me!" Andy almost bit through the back of his lower jaw.
The Weasley twins!
Gellert Grindelwald!
You'll all pay for this!
Of course, even if Andy received an object with the Deathly Hallows symbol on it, it wouldn't have much of an impact.
So what if someone saw it?
I won't acknowledge it!
He reached out and swiped at the mark, and the Deathly Hallows mark instantly disappeared in a wriggling motion.
Hermione looked at Andy strangely and then curiously asked, "Andy, take a look inside and see what it is."
Click!
Andy opened the box.
"It's enchanted with the Undetectable Extension Charm."
Andy said nonchalantly, "It should be some alchemy books. I asked someone in Europe to get them for me."
"He has some connection in Beauxbatons Academy of Magic, where there is an Alchemy course. Nicolas Flamel also graduated from this school, so Alchemy is very popular there."
"I see." Hermione was a little disappointed.
She had just glanced inside the box, and sure enough, there were a lot of books inside.
She had thought there would be a big adventure!
So, she felt a little disappointed!
Clack!
Andy closed the box and carefully put it away.
"You can read it tonight when you're not busy," said Andy.
Andy didn't want to open the box in front of Hermione because if Grindelwald, that weasel, wrote to him, his relationship with him would be completely exposed.
Andy felt that...
Grindelwald would most likely do such a thing!
He wanted to drag Andy on board his pirate ship.
What wishful thinking!
Everyone is now shouting at that guy, so Andy doesn't want to get involved with him.
"Speaking of which..."
Andy asked again, "Hermione, are you bored these days?"
"No. Why are you asking?" Hermione looked surprised.
"Then why were you so excited just now?" Andy raised an eyebrow.
"Er..."
Hermione felt a little embarrassed. "I was just thinking about the plot of the film and thought I might get in touch with some mysterious organisation or encounter some mysteries."
"Okay."
Andy shrugged and said, "If you're looking for thrills, I can take you to the Department of Mysteries at the Ministry of Magic for adventure; there are all sorts of weird and wonderful things hidden there."
Hermione: "..."
"Andy!"
Hermione's face turned serious. "Adventure and illegal activities are not the same thing, and besides... I don't want to go to Azkaban!"
"I was just messing around."
Andy looked helpless. "Why are you taking it so seriously?"
Hearing this, Hermione glared at Andy fiercely.
She felt that Andy wasn't just joking.
What people call 'just joking or messing around' is often the first thought in their subconscious mind. Andy casually said that he wanted to go on an adventure to the Department of Mysteries, so he must have thought about it.
"You'd better not go!" Hermione said.
"Of course!" Andy's eyes shone with sincerity.
The Department of Mysteries...
Andy will have to go there again sooner or later.
But next time, he would be fully prepared.
Now that he thought about it...
Andy remembered!
Grindelwald had invited him to visit the Department of Mysteries at the Ministry of Magic in Germany.
He even expressed his sincerity.
So... should he go or not?
