"That's reassuring," she quipped, nearly smirking at him, but not, because he was, after all, a very tense and hotheaded young Auror man. No, it really was reassuring that this Cult thing had nothing to do with Sabel. She just had to wonder now... "Why do you have the same book I do? Whoever planted these things did a very poor job of it."

There was no question in her mind that these items were placed in her desk, and in Sabel's, for a reason.

Either she was ignorant, or playing at it. Unfortunately, Sabel was going to have to go with the former conclusion.

Letting out a breath, he dropped the book onto her desk and leaned back in his chair, scrubbing at his brow as he closed his eyes. "We should get the Professors to check their offices. See if we are the only ones or not."

He doubted it was even worth checking Hogwarts for the infiltrator. Could have been anyone. Though the wards weren't set off. Why weren't the wards set off? His gut twisted uncomfortably.

"And contact the MLE." It was said quietly, almost regrettably.

"As for why they are in my office, I feel it's a simple enough answer." Dropping his hand he stared at the books. "I was a YATI when the Cult was in the ministry, helped to bring them down." In a manner of speaking.

Shifting his weight he fished in his pocket and unfolded the article that had come out not long ago. "And there's this." He tossed the wretched thing on the table. She'd seen it before of course, it was the exact same one that had her red circle on it. "Have the feeling that either there might be some damn truth to these lies after all, or someone's aiming to discredit us both, and further these foolish accusations. I doubt these are all there is to this scheme."

Perhaps then they shouldn't contact the MLE, but something told him Rainey needed to know. Be it a misplaced sense of duty or otherwise, the man needed to know. Even if he would just laugh it all off and tell him to lighten up.

But then why in Truebridge's office? Unless it was because she hired him. Or for the simple fact that she was Headmistress. Removing the head of Hogwarts, now that would be a feat long desired of the underdogs. A grim smile touched his lips at the thought of it.
