Hogwarts starts with stealing power

Draco heard Lin Xia's thoughts and was deeply impressed by her boldness.

But after the surprise, a gleam of excitement flashed in his eyes.

He had verified the effect of the potion last night. Compared with using it on high-level polluters who were imprisoned in cages and unable to move, this potion had a suffocating feeling of bullying. It would be better to use it on the most heinous Death Eaters.

Items must also be used with value.

Dealing with evil people is its value.

Draco immediately said, "I want to go with you!"

Not only can he keep watch for her and observe the surroundings, but he can also fight when in danger. He is not a burden, so she nodded: "Okay, let's go out this afternoon without further ado."

Draco thought for a moment and said, "We need to make some preparations in advance. We need to get the twins' Marauder's Map first, borrow Harry's Invisibility Cloak, and prepare some rare items..."

Lin Xia: "I'll borrow the Marauder's Map and the Invisibility Cloak, you prepare the rest."

She thought of something and said, "The most important thing is your pitch-black potion. If you can't make it in the morning, then the operation in the afternoon won't be able to start."

Draco said solemnly, "I stayed up all night and didn't want to go to class in the morning, but I didn't want to ask for leave. Since we have something to do in the afternoon, I will ask the professor for leave in the morning and try to make a few more bottles."

"Make a few more bottles?" Lin Xiawei raised his eyebrows. "So confident? Isn't this potion very difficult to make?"

Draco smiled faintly. "It's difficult to try at first, but once you're familiar with all the processes, it's just a matter of probability. This potion doesn't require any rare magical plants, so I'm sure I can make more without worrying about loss."

Lin Xia: "Good luck to you."

The morning class was Trelawney's Divination class.

This professor was as charlatan as ever, using different styles of makeup to keep the students fresh, and then saying all kinds of threatening words to make the students feel uneasy.

In Hogwarts, where the situation was not good in the past, Trelawney's predictions might have been revered by the students.

But Hogwarts is quiet this year.

The death she talked about did not happen, which made many young wizards not trust her.

But even though they don't trust you, it doesn't mean they don't like taking divination classes.

Even though he knew that divination was very difficult, the little wizard still longed for the mysterious and exciting feeling.

"Oh, I feel a sense of malice!"

Trelawney suddenly spoke, her voice was the same as usual, always pretending to be low, but the next second the expression on her face became serious, and there was a feeling that was completely different from before.

Her voice didn't sound low and deep, but rather hoarse, yet powerful.

Lin Xia noticed the change in tone and immediately looked up.

In the classroom, the crystal chandelier cast a dim halo in the swirling smoke of incense. The curtains were closed, so the scenery outside could not be seen, and the little wizard's vision was confined to this small corner.

Professor Trelawney, wrapped in layers of violet gauze robes like a walking cloud of dusk, held a teacup in her hand, and was staring at the tea dregs in the cup, which were curled up into black spots.

Her body suddenly began to tremble, and the countless silver bells on her wrists tinkled as she trembled.

"It's terrible, terrible malice—"

She suddenly shouted in a trembling voice, and her shawl decorated with stars and moons slipped halfway from her shoulders, revealing the runes embroidered on the lining.

Lin Xia looked at this scene and had to say that the movements and expressions of the man making the prediction, as well as the handling of various details, were indeed like a charlatan.

No wonder he could deceive the little wizard time and time again, and no wonder Hermione was always dissatisfied.

I know it's fake, but I still want to believe it.

But this time, Trelawney's prophecy was significantly different from the past. Her voice became hoarse, and her excitement made her look more like she was possessed by another person.

"When Saturn's rings devour Mercury, the tea leaves at the bottom of the teacup will reveal the reflection of the betrayer! Everyone has been deceived, a deception that spanned thirteen years! Ominous! The shadow is shrouded in ominousness!

Oh, a big vicious dog is chasing a poor mouse, everyone is deceived! Fire comes, there is fire, and a smoke that is enough to burn everything sweeps over Hogg——"

The sage smoke from the copper stove in the corner wrapped around her skirt like a snake, making her look mysterious and contradictory.

But just as she was about to utter the final prophecy in her excitement, her eyes suddenly rolled back and she fainted on the ground.

The young wizard exclaimed and rushed forward to check on the professor's safety.

As an excellent student, Lin Xia reacted immediately, stood up, put the magic wand to her throat, and used "Voice Like a Bell" -

"Stop, don't go over there, don't gather around the professor!"

People around kept giving way, clearing a path for Lin Xia. She lowered her head and lifted Trelawney's eyelids, then felt her pulse, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.

Lin Xia said in a deep voice: "Professor Trelawney has fainted. I will take the professor to the infirmary. You stay and continue the class."

Ron, Harry and Hermione came to help, and Lin Xia used a levitation spell to keep Professor Trelawney by her side.

It has to be said that the location of the divination class is too narrow. It is difficult to just walk out, let alone an unconscious person.

But Lin Xia used the levitation spell skillfully and managed to control her out without any danger.

Mrs. Pangley was sitting in the infirmary. Seeing Professor Trelawney fainted, she did not seem too panicked. She said calmly:

"She fainted again."

Lin Xia asked, "Ma'am, does Professor Trelawney always faint?"

Madam Pang Lei shook her head. "It wasn't so frequent before, but in the past two months, she always faints before she finishes her prophecy. By the way, do you still remember her prophecy? Tell me."

Lin Xia looked at Mrs. Pang Lei in confusion and stopped Ron who was about to speak.

"Wait, ma'am, why are you collecting Professor Trelawney's prophecies?"

Lin Xia pulled Ron, Ron pulled Harry and Hermione, and they kept retreating quietly.

Mrs. Pangley also looked puzzled. "Why do we need to collect them? Can't I know Professor Trelawney's predictions?"

Lin Xia stared into her eyes and said, "Of course you can know, but you shouldn't ask me. I will tell the Dean and Professor McGonagall the content of the prophecy. If you want to know, go find them."

The corners of Mrs. Pang Lei's mouth twitched slightly, and her eyes suddenly became somewhat fierce.

Lin Xia used the supersensory spell to magnify her vision and did not miss the slightest change in her expression. The moment her eyes changed, Lin Xia drew out her wand and cast three spells in succession:

"Expelliarmus!"

"Imprison quickly!"

"Fainted!"

"Mrs. Pang Lei" quickly drew out her wand and calmly blocked Lin Xia's three spells.

But it didn't work.

When Lin Xia used these three spells, Ron, Harry and Hermione also reacted. They drew out their wands and pointed them at Mrs. Pangley, using the three spells that Lin Xia shouted!

Lin Xia's spell didn't hit Mrs. Pang Lei, but other people's spells did!

To everyone's surprise, the person who hit her was Ron.

The reason is that Ron shouted "Expelliarmus", but what he could use was "Shatter into pieces".

"Mrs. Pang Lei" blocked the attack of "Expelliarmus", but she didn't expect that it was "Shattered into Pieces". The strength of her resistance was not enough, causing the spell beam to grazed Mrs. Pang Lei's arm.

Her arm was instantly broken into pieces and she fell to the ground in pain. Lin Xia quickly fired two more "Expelliarmus" shots at her, causing her to faint.

Mrs. Pang Lei's wand was knocked away, and she fainted on the spot with her hands.

On the other side, Professor Snape, who was walking in the corridor and preparing to go to class, sensed the magical fluctuations, hurried over, and when he opened the door, he saw "Mrs. Pangley" lying on the ground.

Ron was a little nervous and wanted to explain something, but Snape didn't even look at them.

He quickly raised his wand and fired a "Quick Confinement" at the fainting Mrs. Pang Lei!

After wrapping her tightly, Snape asked Lin Xia: "What happened?"

Lin Xia told what happened after Trelawney was sent here.

Snape stared at Lin Xia with his sinister and arrogant eyes, "Just because she wanted to know Trelawney's prophecy, you thought there was something wrong with her and even used a highly dangerous spell like 'Shattered'?"

The atmosphere suddenly became stagnant, and it was hard to breathe.

Hermione and the others' hearts were beating fast. They all felt that Snape would imprison Lin Xia in the next second, and make her drop out of school voluntarily on the charge of "assaulting a professor", or have Hogwarts expel her.

Lin Xia said slowly, "She wants to know Trelawney's prophecy. Isn't this an obvious loophole? Mrs. Pangley is only concerned with medical matters. When would she be interested in prophecies and take out a notebook to collect them?"

She paused and said with certainty: "The person lying on the ground is definitely not Mrs. Pang Lei!"

Snape glanced at Lin Xia and said nothing more. Instead, he took Mrs. Pangley, who was tied up tightly, to another place.

Hermione and the others saw the exposed arm, which gradually twisted and deformed, becoming the size of an adult wizard. Combined with what Lin Xia had said before, they understood everything.

"hiss--"

Ron gasped, "Who wants to pretend to be Mrs. Pang Lei, and what is his purpose?"

Hermione: "Can't you see? His target is Professor Trelawney. He wants to know the professor's prophecy."

Harry was puzzled: "But aren't the professor's predictions inaccurate? Do they believe them?"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Lin Xia's calm voice sounded: "It only takes a thought to believe it or not. As long as they believe it and make changes according to the instructions of the prophecy, history is very likely to be rewritten by them."

"They?" Hermione asked immediately. "Who are they?"

Lin Xia shook her head slowly and said slowly: "I don't see anything special about the wizard disguised as Mrs. Pang Lei. I can't even see his appearance clearly. Maybe only the professor knows the identity of that person, but I have a hunch that the person who came might be a Death Eater."

"Death Eaters..." Ron felt his body trembling, and his teeth were clacking up and down.

Oh my god, did he just have a fierce battle with the Death Eaters?

Harry felt nervous too, but he found that he was more excited.

Even though he wasn't fighting alone just now, Harry thought that the Death Eaters were not as difficult to defeat as he had imagined.

Perhaps, they all overestimated the Dark Lord! -

The pretender of "Mrs. Pang Lei" is still not calm enough.

As long as he was patient and acted like a real medical staff, he didn't need to do anything but wait until the little wizard finished class, and then he would be able to hear the prophecy that swept across Hogwarts.

Although this prophecy may spawn countless versions, which may obscure the true meaning of the prophecy.

When Lin Xia and others sent Trelawney to the infirmary, the students in the divination class were in an uproar. They discussed countless versions of Professor Trelawney's prophecy.

"Another ominous sign has appeared, and this time it will sweep across Hogwarts!"

"Big dogs and rats are both bad luck!"

"Hogwarts is about to face a fire that will burn everything, and this fire was set by someone inside Hogwarts. He is a traitor!"

Before Lin Xia and others returned to the divination classroom, the bell rang, so they waited outside.

After just a moment's wait, I heard the young wizard discussing it with great interest.

There was some confusion in Hermione's eyes: "...It seems that this is not what we heard at the beginning?"

Ron: "Well, I'm sure of that."

Harry asked hesitantly, "Do we need to clarify this?"

Lin Xia thought for a while and shook her head: "No, let's go find Professor McGonagall now."

McGonagall is the deputy headmistress of Hogwarts and has great authority, and she also has the right to know the true prophecy.

They turned around and went to find Professor McGonagall.

Before they even reached the office, they met Professor McGonagall who was hurried out of the corridor.

Mag received some news, her face tense, and she walked out quickly.

"Professor!" Lin Xia immediately called out to her.

Professor McGonagall saw them and stopped walking with a frown on her face. Instead, she said, "Lin Xia, let's talk later. I have something urgent to deal with."

Lin Xia stopped her immediately, her expression serious: "Professor, what I want to say is also very urgent. It is related to the fainted Professor Trelawney, and also to the wizard disguised as Mrs. Ponley that we captured. He wants to know Professor Trelawney's language, but we didn't tell him."

Professor McGonagall paused and looked at them in surprise, "So it was you who captured the wizard."

Seeing that Lin Xia and the others didn't know the wizard's true identity, she went along with it without revealing the wizard's true identity.

She thought for a few seconds and turned around quickly: "Come with me to the office."

After arriving at the office, Professor McGonagall waved her wand and the door was automatically locked. She then asked seriously, "What happened before Trelawney fainted?"

Lin Xia glanced around the office and suddenly saw the meditation basin placed in front of the office.

The meditation basin is not difficult to identify. It looks like a shallow stone basin with runes and some mysterious symbols carved on the edge. The inside is filled with a silver substance that is between liquid and gas, similar to flowing clouds.

Most Pensieves are buried with the Master upon his death, but the Hogwarts Pensieve is an exception, passed down from generation to generation.

Lin Xia had seen a Pensieve in Dumbledore's office before, but that Pensieve was obviously much larger than the one Professor McGonagall had.

I don't know where Professor McGonagall found it.

A guess suddenly flashed through her mind: Could it be that the things dug out from the grave were lost?

Lin Xia pointed to the Pensieve and said, "Professor, it's hard to explain it in words. I'll use the Pensieve to take you inside and see it."

Professor McGonagall hesitated. The Pensieve was very precious and rare, and she had applied for one for some special reasons.

But that's not the point.

The point is that using the Pensieve is difficult, since it requires extracting memories.

But she looked at Lin Xia and thought that this might not be a difficult task for Lin Xia.

Mag nodded and held the wand tightly, ready to stop if anything unexpected happened.

When Lin Xia put the tip of the wand against her temple, everything around her became very quiet. She seemed to hear everyone's heartbeat and various breathing sounds.

For a moment, she also heard the sound of snow falling outside the castle, landing lightly on the ground, making a slight "crunching" friction sound.

With a slight hook at the end of the staff, a strand of silver thread with a pearly luster was pulled out and hovered in the air like the first breath of white mist exhaled on a winter night.

She dropped the silver thread into the basin, and the mercury-like liquid in the meditation basin suddenly rippled, and the shape reflected on the ceiling instantly shattered, and then fragments of memory emerged.

Without hesitation, Mag put her head into the Pensieve and was pulled into the Divination classroom.

She listened to Trelawney's lecture in Linxia's time, her eyes fixed on the book.

Suddenly, Trelawney's tone of voice changed, Lin Xia looked up at her, and Professor McGonagall followed her gaze.

Then she heard Trelawney's prophecy.

Malice, being deceived, big dog, rat, fire, Hogg...

The scene suddenly ended, and Professor McGonagall raised her head from the Pensieve. The illusion in the basin was swallowed into pieces by the surging silver waves, and then returned to calm.

Professor McGonagall took a deep breath and closed her eyes slightly, as if she was clearing her thoughts.

Soon, she understood something and turned to Lin Xia and the others and said, "This prophecy is very important. I need to report it to Dumbledore urgently."

It was an affirmative tone, not a solicitation for their opinion.

When Lin Xia made this decision, she knew that this memory would fall into Dumbledore's hands.

She might have been a little worried before, but now with Professor Babel protecting her, Lin Xia feels more at ease.

If you are not envied by others, you are a mediocre person.

She always tries to hold back too much, and her talent is not revealed.

Professor McGonagall hurriedly left the office. Before leaving, she thought of something and said, "You guys go back first. I'll find you if I need anything. Don't worry, Hogwarts is still very safe." (End of this chapter)
