Hogwarts Melting Ice Journey

"So, you are saying that this pocket watch is similar to a time turner." In the common room, Rowan thought about what Stephen just said about his conversation with Dumbledore, "I probably understand, please wait for me."

He walked to a bookshelf in the common room, looked at it, and took a book off the shelf. He walked back to his seat, sat down, and opened the book.

"The time turner is a device used for time travel. It looks like an hourglass hanging on a golden necklace. The number of times you turn the hourglass represents the number of hours you can go back in time." Rowan read the contents of the book out.

"When using the Time-Turner, the user will feel like they are flying backward very quickly, with blurry clouds and shapes passing before their eyes, something pounding in their ears, and the user being unable to hear their own voice."

"The maximum duration of time travel without causing any possible serious damage to either the traveler or time itself is approximately five hours."

Rowan looked up at Stephen, "Is this the time turner Professor Dumbledore said?"

"Yes." Stephen nodded, "But how did you find the book about the time turner."

Rowan closed the book, showed Stephen a look at the cover which said: "Author: Ravenclaw", and then he turned the book back to the page just now.

"This is really magical." Stephen found it a little incredible that books written by Ravenclaw himself would actually appear on the bookshelf in the common room.

"I only discovered it in the past few days. This book was not there at the beginning." Rowan looked at the content above. "If this is the case, then the time turner is an alchemical product that has existed for a long time."

"Does this book mention other things?" Stephen felt that if it was a book written by Ravenclaw himself, it should not only contain content about time turners.

"No, there is nothing else except the content of the time turner." Rowan flipped through the book, and the two of them could see that except for the part about the time turner, the other pages were blank.

"Were you like this when you first found out?" Stephen asked curiously, and he had a guess in his heart.

"Yes." Rowan nodded, "When I saw it before, I was very curious as to why there was only this part of it."

"I think I probably know it." Stephen took out the black-covered book from the bag and turned it over.

Sure enough, something appeared on a few pages in the book, and Stephen turned to those pages, which contained information about the time turner. But unlike Ravenclaw's book, the above content does not directly describe the time turner, but lists some experimental data.

The two looked at the records above, which were all about the harm caused by incorrect use of the time turner.

"Héloïse Mintab, died in 1899, title: Silent. During the experiment, she was trapped in 1402 for five days. When she returned to the present, her body's age had increased by five centuries and she was irreversibly damaged. Died at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Maladies..."

They read on, and it read: "The Tuesday after Héloïse Mintab returned to the present day lasted two and a half days, leaving only four hours on Thursday."

"So if the pocket watch on your body has the same effect." Rowan looked at Stephen, he swallowed, and then continued, "Once we use it incorrectly, some people will completely disappear in the long river of history. "

"And it will also change the present and the future. But unfortunately, we don't even know how to use it." Stephen shrugged, "So as long as there are no ideas and methods for use, the situation is still safe and controllable."

"Yes, that's right." Rowan looked at the two books. "I'm more curious now about why the two books revealed to us about the time turner, and at this time. And, Stephen, you What you do risks changing time.”

"I wrote a letter to Dumbledore, and the letter talked about something." Stephen did not want to say more, and he knew that Rowan would not ask him what the specific matter was.

Rowan just nodded and did not ask what Stephen wrote. "It would be really strange if these two books are related. You must know that the time span spans at least eight centuries."

"Or they are not related, they are just written in the same way." Stephen thinks this situation is more likely, "We just happened to find them."

"It's very possible, Stephen. I think we have one more thing to study. What are you going to do with this book?" Rowan pointed to the Ravenclaw book.

"Put it back in its place. It should belong to all of Ravenclaw. Knowledge should be a treasure that belongs to everyone. We have no right to deal with them."

"You're right, Stephen." Rowan closed the book and put it back on the bookshelf. "If my research yields results in the future, I will also publish it."

"Me too, but I think the Tricky Charm will drive those teachers crazy, especially Filch."

The two laughed, but then Holmes flew in from the window and dropped a newspaper on the table in front of them.

Stephen picked it up and took a look. The headline on the first page read: Sirius Black shamelessly betrayed the Potter family and used magic of mass destruction in a street where Muggles gathered, causing Peter Pettigrew and Ten Two Muggles died and were urgently arrested by Aurors earlier tonight and imprisoned in Azkaban.

Stephen shook his head slightly, and then handed the newspaper to Rowan.

Rowan took a look and felt a little strange, "Why were the Aurors able to imprison him in Azkaban without a trial?"

"I think the Ministry of Magic has previously authorized the Department of Enforcement to take all necessary measures, but this is a serious violation of regulations." Stephen felt that the Ministry of Magic's system was like child's play, with sieves everywhere.

"I guess in the future we may also see some Death Eaters with solid evidence being acquitted, and some Death Eaters with serious crimes sentenced to life imprisonment for some humane reasons. I would say their system really needs to be reformed. Completely revised.”

Stephen took out a piece of letter paper and a quill. He planned to write a letter to Dumbledore, telling Dumbledore how to use these loopholes in the system to refute the Ministry of Magic, so that he could see Sirius and know the truth of the incident.

Although Sirius' arrogance did cause the death of the Potter family, he has always been the most loyal member of the Order of the Phoenix. It would be unreasonable for Dumbledore not to save him.

"Also, I think that if Sirius is rescued, it will give Potter a less painful childhood..." Stephen picked up the pen and started to write.
