Chapter 840: A Pang of Conscience
When Evan returned to Gringotts Hall, Hermione, Bill, Fleur, Gabrielle, and Rawya were still talking about the Ruins of Amun Ra.
From the size of the city of Per-Ramses and the ground floor of the site being excavated, it could be inferred that the whole temple of Amun Ra was of an astonishing size. Bill thought that there was still a very large space behind the stone gate of the Obelisk hall.
Taking into account that there might be books at the level of The Black Book of the Dead, the corresponding degree of danger was also unusually high.
Although part of the defensive magic and curses would become invalid over time, the rest were the most dangerous spells.
Especially in ancient temples like that of Amun Ra left by Pharaoh Ramses II in Egypts heyday, the curses inside were beyond imagination. Ramses II was a god in the world, which was not a simple compliment.
Considering that, this time, the excavation is led by Zoser leader and the danger of the Temple of Amun Ra itself, I suggest you three should not go As Evan walked over, Bill was trying to persuade Hermione, Fleur, and Gabrielle not to follow.
Dont worry the excavation of the ruins of Amun Ra should be cancelled. We dont have to go there.
What do you mean? Everyone looked at him in surprise.
Evan, what happened down there? Hermione asked hurriedly.
She was so familiar with Evan; she knew only from the expression that he must have done something.
Ive just talked with Mr. Zoser below. How to say that, hes probably got a pang of conscience, and hes ready to confess what he has done in the past, said Evan, sitting next to Hermione, Killing, stealing, Digging and reselling precious ancient items and colluding with Dark wizards. With these crimes, he will spend the rest of his life in prison, so naturally he has no time to lead us to dig out any relics.
Pang of conscience?!
Everyone looked at him in surprise, as though they couldnt quite grasp what Evan was saying.
How could that goblin have a conscience? That was as remote as the possibility of Voldemort becoming a good man.
Where is Mr. Zoser? asked Rawya.
Hes at the back. Those boxes are too heavy. They may slow him down Evan looked at Bill and Rawya and said seriously, Alright, the situation is urgent. Besides Mr. Zosers turning himself in, while congratulating him on his belated redemption, there are still many things to do. If Im not mistaken, this may be the biggest case in Egypt in centuries. So I suggest you call Aurors the more the better, and better be quick.
Bill hesitated for a moment, looked at Evans serious expression and nodded solemnly.
As a member of the Order of the Phoenix, he knew what Evan had done, and he couldnt be treated as an ordinary young wizard.
Since he said that Zoser was going to turn himself in, that might be true, even though it sounded absurd
Similarly, as a Curse-Breaker who had worked in Egypt for many years, Bill also knew the status of Zoser and the meaning of this matter.
There would be an earthquake in the Wizarding World of Egypt, the power of Gringotts would be restrained, and the wizards associated with Zoser would be out of luck!
Ill be right back with Aurors. Wait here. He said quickly, and Disapparated.
What on earth is going on? Fleur muttered, looking up and down at Evan suspiciously.
Mr. Zoser Rawya suddenly shouted.
Following her gaze, everyone saw that the goblin Zoser, controlling several huge boxes, slowly walked out from the side door.
Those boxes were very heavy and quite difficult to move, even with the help of magic.
Several goblins rushed up to help, but Zoser pushed them aside and went straight to the middle of the hall.
What did you do to that goblin? Hermione asked in a low voice, leaning towards Evans ear.
The Imperius Curse, of course; otherwise he wouldnt be so obedient, said Evan, seeing Hermiones eyes widening.
He hurriedly took Hermiones little hand to calm her down.
Evan waved to Fleur, Gabrielle, and Rawya sitting opposite. He asked them to come over and narrated what had happened.
That goblin attacked you voluntarily, how despicable! said Gabrielle, looking at Evan worriedly.
So you looted his vault, and used Veritaserum to make him confess all his crimes, said Fleur, her lips slightly curling with interest in the goblins vault that Evan had mentioned.
Those boxes contain evidence against Zoser said Rawya excitedly, and her eyes fell on the boxes next to Zoser.
If what Evan said was true, then Zoser was really finished, which was what she had always hoped for.
But using the Imperius Curse and Veritaserum, this boy who was not as old as her was too brave.
Evan, if someone finds out youve used the Imperius Curse said Hermione, holding Evans hand tightly.
She considered the whole incident carefully. If there was enough evidence, the goblin could indeed be done, but if it was discovered that Evan had used the Imperius Curse and Veritaserum, it would be quite a problem.
No matter what Evans original intention was, he would be sentenced for using the Unforgivable Curse.
After the Aurors arrive, Ill cancel the magic, and no one will find any trace. Zoser just turned himself in because of his conscience. He was moved by my words. Whether the others believe it or not, theyll have no evidence, said Evan, confident in his magic.
For the Imperius Curse, the wizarding world had always lacked effective detection methods, not to mention that Evans casting level was very high.
Unless there was a wizard of Dumbledores level here, no one would find that he used magic on Zoser.
A few minutes later, the bustling hall of Gringotts suddenly quieted down.
Slight explosions were heard, and Aurors appeared one after another, and many Ministry of Magic officials walked out of the fireplace.
Bills report had been taken seriously, and the Egyptian Ministry of Magic had been paying attention to Zoser.
What on earth is going on? said a goblin in charge, hurrying to meet them.
But what surprised him even more was still behind. Zoser standing in the middle of the hall suddenly sent a loud sound, attracting everyones eyes, and everyone saw him drop the boxes beside him heavily to the ground.
In the next second, countless gold and cultural treasures spilled out of them, shocking everyone.
God, what did they see? Golden masks of the ancient pharaohs, pure gold statues, splendid coffins and mummies, all kinds of exquisite ornaments, countless gold galleons, and
Not surprisingly, Zoser was over. In the face of amazing evidence, he quickly explained everything.
Because of the staggering amount of wealth involved and the speed of progress of the case, as a witness, Evan was also invited to the Egyptian Ministry of Magic several times. Although no one believed that Zoser had confessed because of his conscience, the Egyptian Ministry was really considering giving him a medal.
For the next month, Evan and Hermione stayed in Egypt to cooperate with the Ministry of Magics investigation, and simply made tours by the way.
