Andy only realised this much later.
It is human nature to take advantage of the weak and fear the strong.
No one fears Dumbledore because he is a good person, and this persona has bound Dumbledore to act with restraint.
Even a spineless person like Fudge dares to suppress Dumbledore's influence without fear.
But everyone fears Voldemort.
Because he is a bad person!
"People are bullied for being kind, and horses are ridden for being good."
Andy sighed.
His reckless behaviour in the past had more or less served to deter others to some extent, preventing them from offending him unnecessarily.
Because they were afraid!
They were afraid that one day they would disappear for no reason.
In the world of magic, the strong could easily make this happen.
"It seems I don't need to worry about you," Hermione said with a twitch in her eyebrows.
The young witch was very clever, but she had a one-sided view of the world because she believed in order.
After Andy's reminder, she quickly grasped his meaning.
In Hermione's eyes, Andy was a boy with outstanding talent, great strength, and unconventional thinking who liked to take calculated risks.
But in the eyes of others...
Well, it's hard to put into words.
"I'm glad," Andy smiled.
Hermione suddenly let out a sigh and said, "Andy, you need to think about the way you do things. If you don't do things the right way, the best of intentions can still get you into trouble."
"But things are fine the way they are."
Andy laughed and shrugged his shoulders. "I don't want to end up like Dumbledore, with someone like Fudge jumping all over me."
Fudge...
That name was almost forgotten by her.
Hermione had to think about him for a while before she remembered the previous Minister for Magic, who acted like a clown.
"Suit yourself!"
Hermione grunted but then added, looking dead in his eyes, "I've made up my mind! I'll have to keep a closer eye on you in the future to prevent you from going astray."
"You are mine, so you are also my responsibility."
Andy: "..."
When did she become this bold?
"That's a great idea," Andy agreed.
***
Before they knew it, the two of them had reached the library door, chatting and bantering.
Recently, Andy had been looking for information on the human body.
For example, books on magic transfiguration, human transfiguration, healing magic, and the study of body organs.
He has read many books but has learnt very little.
From the standard views of the magical world, the study of magic that focuses on the body and soul is the most evil dark magic.
Because the study of this kind of magic inevitably requires cruel human experiments; otherwise, it is difficult to obtain the correct conclusions.
For this reason, even in the Hogwarts library, which boasts to have the most extensive collection of books in the wizarding world, it is hard to find many books on such topics, especially advanced knowledge.
What if some young wizard can't resist the temptation and starts his own experiments?
That would do more harm than good!
After searching the restricted section of the library, Andy returned to his seat with a helpless look on his face. First, he cast an Imperturbable Charm, then sighed and said, "It seems that I won't be able to find anything useful in the library."
Hermione looked away from the book and said sternly, "No normal wizard would study the human body."
"That's why magic has been declining."
Andy said. "The advancement of medicine in the Muggle world began with human experiments during war."
Hermione was at a loss for words.
After a moment's thought, Hermione said, "Perhaps...some evil dark wizards would have conducted human experiments in secret."
"For example... the original owner of Azkaban, Ekrizdis!"
Andy's mind clicked.
"You're right!"
Normal wizards certainly wouldn't study the body and soul, because that was the exclusive domain of dark wizards.
Apart from them, only the authorities in the wizarding world would do so.
The Department of Mysteries' Brain Room most likely conducted research on wizards' bodies.
They might have also studied the differences between wizards and Muggles.
'I really need to go back there again.' Andy thought to himself.
Andy never found the data archive in the Department of Mysteries. What's more, Andy infiltrated the Department of Mysteries several times, but he never met a single Unspeakable.
Was that normal?
Had all the Unspeakables clocked off?
Was there not even one person on duty at night in such an important institution as the Department of Mysteries?
Surely not!
Therefore, the only reasonable explanation is that they have deliberately avoided seeing them!
"This is getting interesting!" Andy muttered.
"What?" Hermione asked.
"Nothing..."
Andy shook his head with a light smile, "I'm going to reread the materials left behind by Slytherin. He was an expert in magical transfiguration, so maybe it will give me some clues."
"If all else fails, I'll try the Felix Felicis."
Although he said this, Andy's mind had already wandered to the Department of Mysteries.
Tonight!
Let's explore the Department of Mysteries once again!
This time, although finding the archive room is still the top priority, Andy also wants to find the Unspeakable.
Especially the Unspeakables who remain on duty at night; they must know a lot of secrets.
Besides, he also wants to test their strength.
If he can't beat them, then he will honestly ask for advice from the seniors.
But if he can beat them... Veritaserum, Cruciatus Curse, and the like are all very suitable if they acted uncooperative.
Having made up his mind, Andy no longer focused on the Hogwarts library. With a flick of his fingers, the Slytherin research materials flew from the dormitory to the library under the effect of the summoning charm.
***
Night fell.
In a hidden corner on the eighth level of the Ministry of Magic, Andy's figure appeared out of thin air, holding a short creature less than Andy's waist tall in his hands – a house elf!
For this mission, Andy had gone to 12 Grimmauld Place and used the Imperius Curse to control Kreacher.
"Go in!"
As soon as he said this, the entrance to Andy's pocket suddenly grew larger, and Kreacher jumped in, disappearing into the pocket, which then returned to its original state.
This pocket had been enchanted by Andy, so it had a lot of space, more than enough for Kreacher to rest in.
He looked around and saw no one.
Andy cast a spell to become invisible and then walked towards the Department of Mysteries.
Naturally, Andy had disguised himself when he infiltrated the Ministry of Magic.
Polyjuice Potion, a new wand, a Death Eater mask, cloak, Disillusionment Charm, a house elf, etc.
Andy had done a lot of preparation.
However, Andy knew very well that no matter how well he disguised himself, once he fought someone, his identity would be exposed.
Because strength never lies.
But Andy didn't care about that.
Arriving at the Department of Mysteries with ease, Andy took a deep breath as he looked at the simple black door in front of him.
This infiltration was different from the previous ones.
This time, Andy intends to find the Unspeakable, who is on duty at night, and ask him some secrets.
No one knows the strength of the Unspeakable!
"Hoo..."
Andy let out a breath and slowly pushed open the black door of the Department of Mysteries.
It was the same familiar circular room.
Around the room were twelve identical black doors.
However, unlike before, there was someone in the room this time!
