"Damn it, damn it, damn it all!"

Late at night, in the silent Muggle village, a series of angry curses were suddenly heard. Bellatrix, who had just returned from outside, was throwing a tantrum in the hall. She waved her wand wildly, smashing everything in front of her to pieces.

"What's wrong, Bella."

Narcissa waited until Bella had calmed down completely before she dared to walk into the messy hall. Looking at her sister with a hideous face, she asked worriedly.

"Our control over Rosmerta has been exposed."

Bella kicked the armchair at her feet away, turned her head to look at her sister, and said with trembling lips: "Draco actually intends to adopt Snape's plan. He actually believes..."

"Severus originally promised me that he would protect Draco's safety, and I think he is trying to do that." Narcissa was very pleased about this. She never cared about what kind of reward Draco would get after the success. She only hoped that her son could survive safely.

For a mother, there is nothing more precious than this.

"Protect Draco? No, Snape is trying to take away the glory that belongs to Draco. He also intends to use us as bait. Draco told me everything. Snape intended to use us from the beginning." Bella roared at her sister angrily, "That cunning guy didn't care about Draco's life or death from the beginning. He just wanted to use Draco to kill Dumbledore and make us grateful to him."

"I am willing to believe Severus. Don't forget that he has signed an unbreakable oath. I think he is trustworthy. If he really needs that honor, I don't care, Bella. I just want Draco to be alive. He is my only child and I cannot lose him." Narcissa looked at her sister with pleading eyes: "Moreover, as long as Dumbledore can be killed, the Dark Lord will definitely forgive you and Lucius' mistakes. You must want to regain the Dark Lord's trust."

Bella left angrily, but was finally persuaded by her sister Narcissa.

For her, regaining the Dark Lord's trust was the most important thing, and everything else had to be put aside for the time being.

As for getting rid of Snape and working alone, the probability of success is really low, and no Death Eaters are willing to join this action.

That group of people avoided her like the plague, as if she might bring disaster to others at any time.

When they confirmed again and again that Snape was the leader of this operation, many Death Eaters expressed their willingness to participate. Although many people looked down on or disliked Snape, they also had to admit that Snape was steady and able to live under Dumbledore's nose for so long and gain Dumbledore's trust. Snape was undoubtedly successful.

Moreover, the plan to assassinate Dumbledore was obviously reliable. Without the guarantee of success, Snape would never easily expose his undercover identity to carry out an unreliable plan, causing more than ten years of hard work to go to waste.

How stupid is that

This incident also deepened Bella's jealousy of Snape. If Snape had not promised to leave the opportunity to kill Dumbledore to Draco, Bellatrix probably would not be willing to help.

In Snape's name, she successfully gathered a group of people and prepared to sneak to Borgin and Burke's Dark Magic Shop in Knockturn Alley late at night to carry out the plan that Snape gave to Draco.

There is no doubt that there are many fence-sitters among the Death Eaters, but there is no shortage of fanatics either. For many Death Eaters, they are not willing to miss this opportunity to kill Dumbledore.

As long as Dumbledore is killed, no one will be able to stop the Dark Lord.

Then the Death Eaters won't have to worry about the Ministry of Magic, and Minister of Magic Scrimgeour will pay the price for his actions.

Many Death Eaters wanted to kill Scrimgeour. Since he came to power, he has executed hundreds of dark wizards. The number of Death Eaters who died because of him even exceeded the number in the wizarding war more than ten years ago. It was simply horrifying.

The current environment in the wizarding world is very unfriendly to the Death Eaters. Even though the dark wizards have tried their best to create trouble for the Ministry of Magic, Scrimgeour has never given up on strangling the Death Eaters and dark wizards.

A group of people quietly came to Borgin and Burke's dark magic shop and alarmed the owner of the shop.

"Dear guests, is there anything I can do for you?" When Borgin Burke, who was wearing a brown striped robe, found that the guests were a group of Death Eaters, he immediately put away his wand and bowed respectfully to the Death Eaters.

"Do you have a vanishing cabinet here?"

Bella's voice came out from the mask, her tone was so cold that Borgin and Burke, who was only wearing pajamas, couldn't help but shiver.

The Death Eaters did not beat around the bush but stated their purpose directly, and wanted to complete the task as quickly as possible and leave, so as to avoid letting others discover that a group of Death Eaters appeared here and causing unnecessary trouble.

"The Vanishing Cabinet?"

Burke thought for a while, then walked to a cabinet and introduced it to the Death Eaters, "This is it. It was very popular among wizards during the last wizard war. It allows people to appear in another place without Apparition, Portkeys or Floo Network."

Several Death Eaters looked at each other, and after hearing Borgin and Burke's introduction, they confirmed the feasibility of Snape's plan.

They all seemed extremely excited.

Yes, nothing would excite them more than seeing Dumbledore die.

If Snape's plan succeeded, then they would then be involved in an extremely glorious task: killing Dumbledore.

"There's a vanishing cabinet, and I need a way to fix it." Bella leaned over and stared at the man in front of her, asking in an unquestionable tone, "I think you must have a way!"

"It's hard to say. I need to see the real thing first before I can make a judgment."

Borgin and Burke didn't dare to pat their chests and guarantee that they would definitely be able to fix that thing, lest one day they would be taken away by angry Death Eaters with Avada Kedavra.

"Do you think we could bring the thing here for you to repair?" Bella narrowed her eyes dangerously and said coldly, "The thing needs to be left where it is. I just need a way to repair it, and you must cooperate throughout the process. Your Galleons will be indispensable when this is completed."

"Oh, of course, as you wish, I will do my best to cooperate."

"I'll come over from time to time to make sure you're concentrating on solving this problem." Fenrir Greyback took off his mask and gave Borgin Burke a malicious and hideous smile, as if to say that if he couldn't solve the problem, he would turn him into a werewolf.

Borgin Burke's face twitched, and he bowed slightly to the group of people and said, "It's not easy to repair the damaged Vanishing Cabinet. I suggest you find a skilled wizard, otherwise it will be difficult to repair it in a short time."

"You don't need to worry about this matter. Just do your own thing."

After leaving Knockturn Alley, the group successfully obtained the method of repairing the Vanishing Cabinet from Borgin and Burke.

The next step was to inform Snape of the incident, and then wait for the Vanishing Cabinet to be repaired. They believed that with Snape's level, it would not take long for him to completely repair the Vanishing Cabinet.

The final step is to execute the plan to hunt down Dumbledore.

After Bella contacted Snape through the two-way mirror that Narcissa used to communicate with Malfoy, and told him how to repair the Vanishing Cabinet, the other Death Eaters exchanged glances and prepared to raise their own questions about the plan.

"Although I don't want to question the feasibility of your plan, our target is Dumbledore, and we have to kill him in Hogwarts... Even if we can invade Hogwarts quietly, can we really kill Dumbledore?"

"Do you know what the consequences will be if the plan fails?"

Alecto Carlo came to the two-way mirror and was the first to raise his doubts about the plan. There was no other way. He had been cheated too many times. If he was not more careful, he would have been dead long ago. How could he still stand here and talk to everyone

"If you are scared, you don't have to force yourself." Snape said coldly, "If you are fine, let's leave it like this for now."

"I think what Alecto said makes sense. Everyone knows that Dumbledore is not easy to deal with. We just want to know why you think you can kill him." Avery immediately agreed. He was also an unlucky guy who was scared of being tricked.

"Dumbledore has suffered serious injuries. His strength is no longer as good as before. He is becoming weaker and weaker. Even if we don't take care of him, he won't live for many years." Snape said these words very confidently because he was not lying. Dumbledore really didn't have many years to live.

However, the other Death Eaters still expressed doubts about how credible his words were, after all, he was Dumbledore.

Even though they knew that Snape was a prudent person and that this matter was obviously planned for a long time, they still didn't want to fall into a trap for no reason.

The current wizarding world is not very friendly to the Death Eaters. There are many people who want to kill them, and there is also Albert Anderson who can predict the future, who is eyeing them covetously. That Mudblood is simply their biggest enemy.

No one wants to plan well, only to find themselves stepping into someone else's trap and falling flat on their face, especially when the target this time is Dumbledore.

However, Snape didn't seem to be planning on revealing too much to them.
