Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 740
"...Please come with us immediately!"
Regarding the old African witch who failed to rob, after Maca left the scene, Hagrid took it down effortlessly.
To be honest, if you hit an impenetrable wall unsuspectingly like that, anyone would be beaten to blood, and even a giant like Glop would not be spared.
As for the thin body of the old witch, it was almost half life.
Soon, under the judgment of Professor McGonagall who arrived quickly, Hogwarts sent the news to the Ministry of Magic to catch the attacker overnight.
During this sensitive period on the night when the competition was over, the Minister of Magic Scrimgeour was not unexpectedly called directly to the office by the Auror on duty, and immediately decided to send a man to Hogwarts to bring the attacker back.
This process is not unpleasant. After all, Scrimgeour also heard that the target that the attacker aimed at turned out to be Edward Le May!
If the old butler was robbed in the British magical world, wouldn't it cause a lot of forces around the world to rush to ask him for an explanation?
In Scrimgeour's view, this is undoubtedly a big event that cannot be ignored!The need to stare at the whole process to deal with it is not even a bit sloppy.
As a result, the action of the British Ministry of Magic this time was astonishingly fast.
McGonagall and Hagrid had just brought the old witch with blood on the forehead to the school hospital, and Madam Pomfrey hadtily stopped the bleeding for her.Even before the old witch recovered from the coma, there were already a dozen Aurors outside the school.
Poor people who work for the public, except for the three night shifts, the rest are just coming home and sleeping!Haven't you seen how many Aurors are still messy?
After they left a sentence as a routine matter, they took the old witch and left, regardless of whether they were still dizzy or not.
It was Kingsley who was apparated at last. Before returning to the Ministry of Magic, he nodded and greeted McGonagall and Hagrid slightly. The three of them, the colleagues of the Order of the Phoenix, hadn't sat down for a long time and had a good conversation. Up.
After watching the Auror team take the old witch away, Professor McGonagall and Hagrid returned to the school hospital to see the old housekeeper who was still in the ward who was treated by Madam Pomfrey.
Well, in other words, it's Mr. Guidro Lockhart, a great actor in the magic world pretending to be an old butler.
"...Mr. Lockhart, Maca just asked me to tell you,'Thanks for your hard work this time.'"
When Professor McGonagall first came to the door of the ward, Lockhart on her current bed seemed to have just woken up, and Hagrid was talking to him.
Because he was covered by a tangible shadow, and because he was thrown on the flying carpet by the old witch, the injuries on his body were not too serious.
Yes, the most serious injury is just a broken arm. Under Madam Pomfrey's superb healing magic, it can be completely healed in a few hours.
In the eyes of wizards, non-fatal trauma is not a problem at all!
"Oh, McLean..."
Lockhart lay weakly on the bed, his eyelids drooped and felt a little sleepy-this was a slight side effect of the therapeutic medicine that Madam Pomfrey had just poured.
At this moment, the effect of the compound decoction on him has disappeared, and his handsome appearance that makes him particularly proud has not changed anyhow.
"Actually, he made me the old man in the beginning, but I actually refused..." Lockhart muttered vaguely, "If I am an actor, then what I hope most is to use my own Face to perform a wonderful script...You can't let me act, I'll do it right away. After the show is over, I will say anything about hard work or not..."
"Ms. Pomfrey, the potion you just used has only the side effects that make people sleepy, right?" Seeing Lockhart muttering constantly there, Hagrid couldn't help turning his head and asked.
But Madam Pomfrey wasn't even interested in answering, she just glanced at Lockhart blankly, then turned and left.
As she passed the door of the ward, Professor McGonagall nodded and greeted each other, and the former raised his leg and walked inside.
"... For us actors, what can this be so hard? You know, there are still a large number of dead dragons on the Muggle set rushing to find a scene with lines... Muggles, good time It's not easy..."
Lockhart was still muttering vaguely, and he didn't know what scene he saw in the Muggle world, which made him never forget it.
"Rubber, this time it's not only Mr. Lockhart, but you also worked hard."
After watching Lockhart a few times, Professor McGonagall probably thought it was best not to talk to him for the time being, so he expressed his gratitude to Hagrid directly.
"No, no, Professor McGonagall." Hager suddenly shook his head. "I didn't really use it tonight. If Maca came back in time, the witch from Africa might have brought Lockhart to him. gone."
"It's a great achievement to let her be fooled." McGonagall said earnestly. "If you didn't accompany Lockhart in this scene, she might return to the castle to continue searching for Mr. Le May's whereabouts. , This is very dangerous for the students."
"Student..." After hearing Hagrid, he suddenly remembered that there should be someone in his cabin, "Oh! Ens Tavon!"
"What?" Professor McGonagall was taken aback for a moment.
"It's Ens Tavon, the first-year student from Hufflepuff," Hagrid explained quickly. "He suddenly made a noise outside my house and was pulled into my sleeping room and hid him. ."
While speaking, Hagerteng stood up from his chair.
"He should still be in my room at the moment," he said as he walked to the door of the ward, "I mean, if he doesn't leave afterwards... I hope that kid is fine..."
Hagrid walked out of the ward before he finished speaking.Behind him, Professor McGonagall took another look at Lockhart, and followed him.
As a result, Lockhart was the only one left in the ward, but he was still chattering.But looking at his increasingly heavy eyelids and his softer voice, I guess he will fall asleep soon.
...
About the time when Professor McGonagall took the wounded and unconscious old witch to the school hospital, Maca had already placed the Bewitching Monument in the huge cave in the mountains of the Forbidden Forest.
When he sent it into the cave before, he also spent a lot of effort.Because in terms of the tall bewitching monument, the entrance to this cave is a bit too small.
"call--"
After putting down the stele, Maca also sat down beside him, intending to speak slowly.
The Bewitching Monument has already been sealed again, but after being transported to this cave, it must be laid out more.
"Quack, this is the skeleton of a giant dragon? It's really big enough..."
Maca looked at the bronze little eagle flying towards the deeper part of the cave, waiting for it to be completely submerged in the darkness, and then staring at the direction of the little eagle's disappearance, he collected some information from the other side not long ago.
At that time, he asked what the "big trouble" used by the other party meant in the past, but he still didn't get any accurate answer.
At this point, it was actually what he expected.
After all, the bronze kitty hadn't been able to say why from the beginning, and now it is naturally impossible to contradict himself-whether or not the other party is deceiving him.
It was because of the doubts in his heart that he didn't continue to ask for the next test, but Shi Cai had already learned about it.
Judging from the various past conditions, whether Ravenclaw is malicious or not, the task she has given to the bronze kitty is to guide the so-called "alternative".
Therefore, you don't even need Maca to ask, as long as the Bronze Kitty finds Maca to complete the previous test, the next one will follow.
Unless, like last time, even the Bronze Kitty himself is in crisis, it will continue to sleep without saying a word.
"Royna Ravenclaw...Royna Ravenclaw..." While Maca repeated the name, his face showed the complexity that he had revealed when he heard the test. , "Could it be said that so far...Is all my behaviors and behaviors under your control?"
The next test he learned from the bronze kitty is very clear, and that is to "study the power source of the Bewitching Monument and completely control it."
"Since your kid has got this broken stone back, forget it..." said the bronze kitty at the time, "I tell you the truth, Lord Eagle, this is actually the next content of Rowena's next test. But this thing is very evil, you have to take a moment when you play, if something goes wrong, it will affect all teachers and students at Hogwarts!"
Moreover, it also specifically points out that the source of the power of this huge monument is a negative soul rule.For all living things, the effects it can have are very serious, and accidents can lead to disasters.
only……
"How did Ravenclaw know that I got the Bewitching Monument? Is it a prophecy? Divination? Or..."
Although it is of course possible that it was just a coincidence, Maca would rather believe that this is a series of arrangements planned by Rowena Ravenclaw.
Thinking about it this way, of course it will bring excess pressure to him, but at least it will not let him ignore the possible dangers because of his luck.
Just before considering these completely clueless things, there is one more thing Maca must consider carefully.
"The Bewitching Monument..." He turned his head again, looked at the giant black stone monument beside him, and muttered to himself, "Should I continue to study this thing?"
Every test of Rowena Ravenclaw seemed to force him to make difficult choices again and again.
