Chapter 48 Who is the murderer
Harry was pointed at by Filch at this time, showing an innocent expression.
After seeing it, Hermione stomped her foot and stood up.
"I can prove, Harry, Harry has never touched your cat! When we first came here, Mrs. Loris was like that."
After Ron listened, he also immediately stood up to speak for Harry.
"Hermione was right, we just passed by here!" Ron suddenly saw Benjamin and Draco hiding in the crowd, and immediately raised his finger and said to them, "They can also testify!"
"Are you crazy! Ron! That's Draco, although Benjamin can't speak for us!" Harry said angrily, pulling La Ron's sleeves, trying to calm him down.Harry believed that Dumbledore would definitely rush over immediately, and he wouldn't have to worry about that.
"Mr. Filch, I believe you will not believe what a few children say? And Harry may have been punishing you in his heart, and he has a grudge in his heart!" The Slytherin, whose name is not known by Benjamin, proudly Said, he seemed so determined to win.
"Does he and Harry have a grudge? How does it feel like he wants to insist that Harry did it." Benjamin asked puzzled.
Draco shrugged, "I don't know, but one is Slytherin and the other is Gryffindor. That's enough!"
"Oh, terrible college competition!" Benjamin said roguely, and then he realized that a group of people were staring at him.
"What do they look at me?" Benjamin asked in confusion.
Ginny, who had been hiding behind Benjamin, spoke, and her crisp voice sounded pitiful.Poor Ginny, she hasn't been very good at Hogwarts.
"Filch said just now, as long as you said it, he will believe it, so we are all surprised!" Ginny said reluctantly.
This is a great honor, Benjamin thought exaggeratedly.He might be the first student to be remembered because of being appreciated by Filch.
"Ahem," Benjamin coughed twice, and then said flatly with his paralyzed face, "Actually," Benjamin looked at Harry, who was expecting some fate, "I and Draco just Behind them, but I don't know what happened before. However," Harry suddenly raised his ears, "He is a second-year Gryffindor, how could he have such a powerful magic!"
Suddenly, a harmonious burst of laughter erupted from the Slytherin crowd.Ron raised his fist angrily, then let it down weakly.
"Everyone, calm down."
Dumbledore's voice sounded behind them, and this voice always had a magical power that made people settle down involuntarily.
In the blink of an eye, Dumbledore was already in front of Harry and the others.
"Well, the classmates who have nothing to do can go back first." Dumbledore raised his hand. Although most people had a regretful expression in their eyes, they all rushed over when they saw their dean. At the time, he had no choice but to turn around and leave.
"You stay." Dumbledore pointed at Harry and Filch.
Just when Benjamin and Draco were about to leave, they were stopped by Dumbledore.
"And you, Mr. Ludwig, I just heard your very fair statement, you are very smart." Dumbledore said with squinting eyes.
Taking advantage of this moment's effort, Dumbledore had taken the poor Mrs. Loris from the torch holder.
Then the old man said to everyone, "Then everyone go to me..."
"Principal, actually my office is the closest to here," Lockhart stood up with a smile, even if it was such an occasion Lockhart still maintained his usual smile and five beautiful teeth.
"That's it, Guidro." Dumbledore said immediately, and the group immediately divided into two groups.
Most students can only go back to their lounge.
"You just said that we just came just now, why should we speak for Harry!" Draco asked somewhat puzzledly, of course his tone must be a little angry.
"I don't have enough evidence to identify Harry, let alone," Benjamin lowered his voice suddenly, and Draco put his ear to Benjamin's mouth in a tacit understanding, "Dumbledore is not a foolish person. "
For a while, neither of them spoke.
"You are right, but Dumbledore is still the person my parents hate the most." Draco finally spoke.
"Don't be so childish." Benjamin said casually, then shut his mouth wisely.
Because they had arrived at Lockhart's office at this time.
For Benjamin and Draco, who came here for the first time, the impact on them was particularly great.
There were countless Lockhart's picture frames hanging on the wall, brightly illuminated by many candles.There are even his signature on a few.There is also a pile of photos on the table.
Most importantly, every Lockhart in this photo kept his charming smile, and then said in a tone that Lockhart used to speak:
"Oh, fame is a fickle friend!"
"A celebrity should have the air of a celebrity!"
"It's really a unique office," Draco said with lack of interest.
And when Dumbledore sat down, everyone was quiet.
Dumbledore's wise, non-cloudy eyes lingered on Harry and Filch.
Then Dumbledore waited for Lockhart to light the candle in the room, and then began to place Mrs. Loris on the smooth table, and began to examine it carefully.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione exchanged glances nervously, then sat on a few chairs out of candlelight and watched closely.
The tip of Dumbledore's long hooked nose almost touched the hair on Mrs. Loris's body.He looked at it carefully through the half-moon-shaped spectacle lens, poking here and there with his long fingers.Professor McGonagall bent over, his face almost touching the cat, and squinted his eyes carefully.Snape stood behind them, half of his body hidden in the shadows, looking gloomy.The expression on his face is very weird: as if trying to restrain himself from laughing.Lockhart hovered around them, constantly making suggestions.
"It must have been killed by a spell-it is probably a metamorphosis torture spell. I have seen others use this spell many times. It's a shame that I was not there at the time. I happened to know the spell-resolving method that could have saved it. ..."
