Wade paused, turning to Sirius, then handed him his Wand. "Alright, you do it."
"What?" Sirius asked.
"A Confundus Charm, a Muggle-Repelling Charm, or any Spell really. Just make that man take his family and leave the camp, and not come back for the next few days," Wade said.
Sirius heard his request, pondered for a moment, then glanced at the dazed expression of the Muggle administrator. Without asking why, he simply raised his Wand and pointed.
Moments later, the Muggle man sprang up as if his backside had been set on fire, then turned and ran off.
The wizard in the knickerbockers saw this, but paid it no mind—the Obliviation Charm only made Muggles forget unreasonable phenomena in the camp; it couldn't make Muggles forget their own physiological needs, like going to the restroom.
Once the Muggle had run far enough, Wade and Sirius turned and walked back.
Sirius was silent for a long time before he said with a wry smile, "I've always thought I was completely different from my family, but I'm only just realizing now that I'm just as arrogant as they are."
He looked at the countless Wizards in the camp and said, "All these people are the same too... they all have a condescending attitude deep down."
Wade looked at him curiously. "Why are you suddenly saying that?"
"Frequent use of the Obliviation Charm can damage a person's brain, we all know that, but you're the only one who wants to help them," Sirius said with emotion. "Come on, let's go find the next one."
"The next one?" Wade stopped in his tracks. "There's more than one Muggle administrator at the camp?"
"Of course," Sirius said. "Muggles can't fly. How could one Muggle possibly oversee such a large area? The administrator for the first section of the camp is Roberts, the man we just sent away. The second section is Payne, and the third section, I think, is Gibson... There should be six in total."
Hearing this, Wade felt a faint sense of relief, immensely grateful that he had run into Sirius when he left.
He himself had been brought directly by Lupin. His impression of the original story was limited to there being a Muggle administrator whose wife and children also lived nearby, and after the match, the masked Death Eaters used the whole family for amusement.
If not for Sirius, Wade would have only randomly sent away one Muggle administrator, and the others could still have been targeted by Dark Wizards, meaning nothing would have changed.
Next, the two of them went around together, secretly sending away all the nearby Muggles, until the last family jumped into their car and sped away from the area, while the Ministry of Magic was still slow to react.
Or perhaps, some staff members were secretly hoping these Muggles would leave completely anyway. After all, with the finals approaching, more and more Wizards were in the camp, and various Magic phenomena simply couldn't be concealed.
These Muggle administrators were actually of no help at all in managing the camp; they were just props placed at the entrance.
But to maintain their worldview, Ministry of Magic employees not only had to handle various emergencies, but also had to cast the Obliviation Charm on Muggle administrators dozens of times a day. This was an immense torment for both sides.
So, with the intentional or unintentional acquiescence and concealment of some people, all Muggles successfully left the area. It was another half an hour before someone "suddenly discovered" the Muggle administrators were gone and began reporting it up the chain.
...
"This is your spare Wand, right?" Sirius twirled the Wand in his hand, then handed it to Wade, saying, "Use it frequently for minor Spells like the Scouring Charm lately, just in case someone uses Prior Incantato to check."
"I know, but this isn't over yet—we still need to find someone."
"Who?"
"Lucius Malfoy... the henchman next to him, Goyle. Grovell Goyle," Wade said.
Just as there were many conflicts between Draco and Crabbe, ever since Crabbe was injured, his father, Crabbe Sr., and Lucius Malfoy also had a rift.
The Malfoy family trusted the Goyle family more—even though the Goyle father and son didn't seem to have much brains, there were benefits to being foolish. At least there was less worry about them betraying.
Therefore, Grovell Goyle was likely privy to most of what Lucius Malfoy intended to do.
Moreover, the Malfoy family liked to show off and had flamboyant, arrogant personalities, making them too conspicuous. The Goyle family, on the other hand, was easy to deal with and had a very low presence.
"During the previous match, I saw Lucius Malfoy and some others secretly discussing something, and all those people were rumored Death Eaters. I suspect they're planning something during this match."
Wade tossed his Wand back to Sirius and took out another spare Wand.
He had bought three old Wands at once, and now they were all proving useful.
Sirius sneered, "Those guys are full of mischief. If you tell me they want to cause trouble, I wouldn't doubt it for a second."
Narcissa Malfoy was Sirius's cousin. Although their two families were like strangers, Sirius still paid attention to the location of their tent.
Soon, Wade saw a tent as magnificent as a palace, covered in a large amount of striped silk, and even had several live peacocks tethered at its entrance.
A little further ahead, they found the Goyle family's tent. From the outside, it looked like a lighthouse, with a dusty, cylindrical, pointed tower. A large bonfire was built in front of the tent, and Goyle was squatting beside it, eagerly roasting several skewers of meat.
Wade and Sirius tacitly moved behind a nearby four-story tent, simultaneously casting the Disillusionment Charm. A few seconds later, they emerged and brazenly walked past Goyle into the tent.
The chubby boy squatting on the ground scratched his face but noticed nothing.
On the first floor, a plump witch was using her Wand to direct kitchen utensils in washing.
Climbing to the second floor, they easily found Grovell Goyle—the man was sprawled on a sofa, watching a romance movie on his Streaming Mirror, his eyes faintly red, as if he was moved to the point of tears.
"*Stupefy!*"
Grovell Goyle was hit by a Stunning Spell, his head lolled to the side as he fell unconscious. Sirius then conjured several ropes and bound him tightly.
"Take him away or question him here?" Sirius said. "If it gets too loud, I'm worried it will attract attention."
"No need for that much trouble." Wade pulled out a crystal vial. "I brought Veritaserum."
"..." Sirius said, "How do you have every Potion? Polyjuice Potion, Veritaserum... These are all illegal Potions! They're usually not even allowed during trials."
"I know," Wade calmly retorted. "Do you want to use it?"
"Of course... use it!"
Sirius pried open Goyle's mouth, watching as Wade dripped the liquid in.
