Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

"...That's the way it is. Mr. McLean, I will severely punish him for this incident that has disturbed many wizards in various countries. Before leaving the tribe, I have already asked them to recite all the things that need attention. Now that I’m down, I’m not thinking about it after all."

In the faculty lounge of Hogwarts Castle, as one of the leaders of the African delegation, the old witch whom Maca had noticed was frankly expressing her apologies for the riot.

And beside her, the previous African wizard who drew out his wand in full view, stood with his head slightly down.Except for the old witch's questioning and using the language of their tribe to explain the actual situation, she didn't dare to speak any more nonsense.

On the other side, it was Harry and the others who were sitting there still confused...Of course, only Luna had a relaxed and casual face as always, she even had the mind to look quietly at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window.

In addition, as expected, Maca is sitting between the two sides of the incident, temporarily acting as the mediator of what seems to be a dispute...

Although this is a faculty lounge, since the professors have their own offices, even Filch has his own administrator's office, so generally no one will come here.

When Maca received the report and went to the edge of the forbidden forest to check the situation, he invited all those involved to a quiet place suitable for arbitration disputes.

At least the house elves are diligent and conscientious. Although it is often empty, it is still clean and tidy.

"No, it doesn't matter, it's not his fault." To the old witch's apology, Maca waved his hand gently. "From the time Luna stood up and the two sides stopped immediately, this matter has basically been It's clear. So, since this was just a misunderstanding, and it didn't cause any actual loss to anyone in the end, then this matter is over..."

The small contradictions and disputes between countries are almost always ended in a peaceful way, let alone a misunderstanding this time.Of course, if it really hurt Harry and the others this time, Macaco might not be as "easy-going" as it is now.

After all, he can't be a qualified person in power.Although he himself has a good overall view, it is only limited to cognition. It is basically impossible for him to choose certain sacrifices.

After determining the nature of the commotion, Maca asked curiously: "But, is Luna really so similar to the female ancestor of your tribe? Uh...I don't have it. Offensive, but you should understand what I mean?"

To put it bluntly-even the race is completely different, will it really look like that?

At the moment when he heard Maca's words, the old witch looked at Luna again and nodded seriously.

"Yes," she said. "Although it's just a profile face carved on the lintel of the ancestral temple, it's really...it's so similar..."

Just as Maca had a conversation with the old witch at this moment, Shijae had already spoken about it on behalf of the African wizard.The reason why the other party would pull out the magic wand after seeing Luna was because after seeing Luna, he mistakenly thought that Luna was the reincarnation of their tribe's ancestor, and wanted to salute her.

Compared with the more prosperous and advanced European magic world, the cultural subject of the African magic world is still at a relatively lagging stage, and there are not many wizards like the old witch who are highly connected to the international magic world.

However, in recent years, due to the continuous efforts of several principals of the African Wagadu School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, coupled with the support of the foreseeable tribal elders like the old witch.Even if there is a large population of tribal wizards in Africa, the situation is gradually improving.

Just like this competition, they brought out a group of young tribes who are suitable for intensive training, even if they have a long experience and broaden their horizons.

The fact that Luna and the other ancestor "came into the face" for no reason did not cause much trouble to Maca, and he was not the kind of person who didn't understand the inside of the magic world of other countries.It's like chanting, anyway, people didn't insist that Luna means "an ancestor reincarnation". In short, this is the end of the matter.

After sending away the old witch and others from the African delegation, only Harry, Hermione, Alexander, and Luna were left in the staff lounge...Of course, there was also a Maca.

"Speaking..." Maca suddenly turned his head and asked Luna, who was still looking up at the window, "Luna, nothing bad happened this time, thanks to you. However, you are again How do you know that the other party is not hostile?"

This question of Maca undoubtedly also represents the doubts of Harry and others.At that time, Luna's sudden stepping out behavior was really amazing, and she was so agile that no one could react.

Otherwise, they would definitely stop her for anything.

Judging from what they have learned, Luna has no chance of knowing the truth.Otherwise, with Hermione's keen observation ability, there shouldn't be any obvious traces left out, and it would be impossible to develop to the point of being almost out of control.

"Well?"

Luna, who was enjoying the blue sky and white clouds outside, had a hazy smile on her face.

"Because of his eyes," she said, "when you talked about panic and occlusion, you also said... the eyes are the windows of the soul."

...

While Luna was using her soft voice to mediate everyone's confusion, the old witch and others in the self-teacher lounge hurriedly returned to the guest room, but their faces were surprisingly serious.

"Old ancestor, my feelings...are really correct, right?"

The African wizard who was at the center of that incident was undoubtedly extremely nervous.

In fact, the explanations given to Maca in the faculty lounge before did not contain any falsehoods, and were all real answers.The faces of the ancestors of their tribe were indeed extremely similar to Luna, and it was true that he wanted to say hello to him at that time.

However, the reason for taking out the wand is not just to salute, it is also one of his purposes to use African magic to sense Luna.

Since the old witch had noticed it when she first met with Maca, it is not a very wise thing to lie in front of Maca.Even she is just "possible" to be able to tell lies while not letting the other party notice it.

Therefore, after asking the situation in the language of the tribe, she chose to say half and leave half to avoid the risk of being discovered by Maca.

"Yes," the old witch affirmed this young tribe from the tribe, "You did a good job, and I will give you the reward you deserve when I go back this time. But—"

She was talking, but she shook her head awkwardly.

"The little girl named Luna does have the blood of her ancestors, but for some reason, the blood in her body is extremely thin...In short, it shouldn't be dangerous. Just a trace of blood, everything will not happen……"

"That..." beside her, the young wizard asked in a low voice, "Old ancestor, do we still want to..."

"Don't do anything," the old witch knew what he was thinking as soon as he heard it, and suddenly warned, "Forgot what I said before? Don't do anything that is prohibited unless necessary! Here, It’s not our place."

...

The conversation that appeared in a room of the African delegation is obviously unknown to Maca.Right now, he was still in the faculty lounge, taking advantage of this busy opportunity to chat with Harry and others casually.

Last night, after setting up a trap to catch two black-robed cultists, he chased a few alienated eight-eyed giant spiders that had been stalked out to try to catch the fleeing accomplices.

It's a pity that the other aspects of those black-robed cultists may be the regular Auror level, but the speed is amazing.In addition, they are also wizards, and it is reasonable to leave with the Phantom Shifting Curse.

When he chased the place where the few people disappeared, the magical fluctuations left by their apparitions were already indistinguishable.

Therefore, although the harvest is there, it is limited to the two believers who were petrified.As for the overnight recourse that he did not hesitate to spend his sleep time, it was actually a waste of effort.And because he has devoted a lot of energy to the alchemy competition during this period, he can't help feeling a little tired today.

For him, chatting with Harry and the others was a pretty good rest.

It's just that he didn't know that what happened these days was not limited to what he had in front of him. Some stories that were closely related to him in places he hadn't noticed were moving forward involuntarily.

At this moment, near the gate of Hogwarts School, where there was a constant flow of people, Ensi, who did not follow Alexander and the others to the faculty lounge, just caught a glimpse of a familiar back.

Because of the competition, the school gates were open during this period, and only when the little wizards were sleeping at night would they be closed and a defensive charm was added.Therefore, this figure seemed extremely natural among the people going to Hogsmeade Village.

Or to be more precise, it didn't make anyone other than Ens suspicious.

"...Draco Malfoy?"

Ensi, who was also in the crowd, was not far behind that figure.He seemed to be paying attention to the other party inadvertently, but he was hesitant in his heart.

Today is Hogsmeade Day, but it is a "special Hogsmeade Day" when almost no one goes to Hogsmeade Village.His instinct told him that Malfoy's deeds were suspicious and worth following.

It's just...Did he still dare to follow?
