A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 417 Dobby and Winky

"Her name is Shining? Who is her master? What happened to you?"

Hot tears flowed from Dobby's big eyes, and he said tremblingly: "Her name is Winky, we have known each other for a long time, when I belonged to the Malfoy family..." He shuddered.

"Go on, Dobby."

"Her master is Mr. Crouch, Mr. Barty Crouch—" Dobby said, and Felix frowned.Dobby said again: "I went to Mr. Crouch's house, it was very dark there, but Dobby had been there before, and knew the way... Dobby found Winky, and Winky told Dobby to leave quickly, Dobby didn't know the reason , our voices woke up the owner of the house."

"You mean Barty Crouch?"

"Dobby isn't sure!" said the house-elf tremblingly. "It was so dark that there wasn't even a magic lamp there! They were so out of date!"

Felix was almost amused, but luckily Dobby hit the point.

"I heard a grim voice saying: something has broken in, it's a dirty house-elf, kill them." Dobby's eyes widened: "Dobby has never heard such a grim voice , Never heard of it! But the next second, Mr. Crouch came out, and he chanted a curse at us, not only me, but also Winky!"

"Chanting a curse?"

"No, it's not... the dazzling green light, filled with the breath of death, is that spell!"

"Death Curse?" Dobby nodded with his eyes closed, and Felix's eyebrows twitched violently.

"What happened after that? You escaped?"

"Afterwards... the spell missed. Dobby used the defensive items given by Mr. Hap to block a very powerful cutting spell. Then Dobby ran away with Winky, but Winky didn't want to go. She also wanted to ask Mr. Crouch Please... Dobby can't leave her alone! Dobby, Dobby knocked her out."

Dobby said out of breath, his slender chest rising and falling.Trembling, he took out a dark yellow sock from his pocket, and poured out a dull amulet from the sock. Its surface was cracked every inch of it, and it was obviously unusable.

Felix squatted down, stroked the spider web-like cracks on the amulet, and then pointed at the unconscious house elf.

"Recover quickly."

Shining's slender neck moved, she blinked her eyelids vigorously, opened a pair of big brown eyes, and sat up tremblingly.She looked around in a daze, her mind still not clear.Her eyes widened suddenly when she saw Dobby and Felix crouching beside her, and she let out a loud scream—

"Xinky has to go back! Winky has to get out of here!"

Her body suddenly became unreal.Felix raised his finger slightly, and the elf kept flickering like a bad signal, but he couldn't get out of this area no matter what.

Dobby looked at Felix in awe and said sharply, "Winky, we're safe."

"No, Winky wants to go back, back to the master!" She struggled desperately.

Dobby said loudly: "You don't have a master anymore, he wants to kill you, think about it!"

Shining's slender body froze, and the round nose that seemed to be squashed suddenly sucked, and said stubbornly: "No, it's not—"

"Master needs someone to take care of, he's very sick!" she cried.

Dobby yelled louder than she did, "He didn't show signs of being sick when he hit us!"

"Because the master has to take care of Master Batty, who is seriously ill, he feels that he has done something wrong and wronged his son..." Winky was trembling all over, and tears rolled down, "Oh, Winky shouldn't have said that, Winky is such a bad elf!"

She screamed and rolled in the dirt, startling several students coming out of the auditorium in the distance.

"Master?" Felix said softly, thinking, "It's Barty Crouch II? Isn't he imprisoned in Azkaban, and as far as I know, he has been dead for many years..."

"Winky!" He stopped the elf who was punishing him, and said in an encouraging voice, "Listen, your master is in trouble and only you can help him," he added, "and your ba Master Tee, but I need to know the truth."

Shining stared at Felix blankly, and kept muttering: "Master Batty is innocent, he was imprisoned in Azkaban by his master, but he couldn't forgive himself, so he chose to atone for his sins." ..."

Her state is really scary, like a body without a soul, repeating these words over and over again.

As he spoke, a strange light flashed in Shining's pupils.

"What's wrong with Winky?" Dobby rubbed his fingers uneasily, "Mr. Hype, Dobby did hear a grim voice, but he didn't see anyone else..."

"She's been cursed...not quite like the Imperius Curse, I guess it's a Confusion Curse," Felix said.

Dobby was taken aback, "Confused? Winky got confused?"

Felix pressed his wand against Shining's chest, and said softly, "The spell is removed." He switched his perspective, and in the gray and white picture, wisps of red light radiated from the elf's body.

He put away his wand, and Dobby stared at Winky, asking uneasily, "The magic is broken? How is Winky?"

Felix breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's see."

Winky seemed to have just woken up, she blinked first, and then let out a desperate cry.

"Master Batty, you bad boy!"

Felix had to wrap his arms around Winky's shoulders as she kept shaking her head and flailing her legs while screaming sadly.His eyes lit up with a silver light, and he said in a deep voice, "Xinxi, do you have anything to say?"

Winky's eyes stared like giant bells, and tears flowed like streams, but she wouldn't say anything.

As a last resort, Felix let her go.

He ordered: "Dobby, take Winky to rest, she has been greatly stimulated tonight." He pointed at Winky, her expression softened quickly, and she fell asleep soon, but there was still light under her eyelids. Beating restlessly.

Felix condensed complex magic symbols in the air, which were printed on Winky's body. "Mr. Hype?"

"She can't leave for the time being. I have blocked her ability to use magic. Dobby, thank you for taking care of her for a while. Please do your best to meet her needs."

"Yes, Mr. Hemp," replied Dobby.He picked up Winky and was about to leave, with a very hesitant expression on his face: "What about you, sir? Do you want Dobby to ask Winky about Mr. Barty Crouch's secret?"

"No need," Felix said, "I'll ask myself..." He said in a very complicated tone, "I just saw a very interesting picture."

"What did you see?"

"A baby," said Felix admiringly.
