Chapter 154 Chamberlain in the Magical World

After a review by the big guys, they roughly figured out how Filch was tricked.

In fact, there is an obvious flaw in the advantages of Halloween that Rhine calculated before.

That is, although professors, students, and even ghosts will gather that night to celebrate the arrival of this night, Mr. Filch is still working diligently on the front line of his work.

He is a typical representative of 007, an old social beast who has been plagued by good fortune for decades, a kind of cow-horse father who would like to kneel down and call him daddy when he sees him, and is allowed to be buried with him.

Probably when Rhine and the Basilisk worked together to force Xiaofu out of the body, Filch happened to be patrolling outside the girls' bathroom, and became Xiaofu's only target.

Does it matter that he is a squib?

In order to save Voldemort's life, what insect that has never been a carrier would give up the opportunity because of discrimination at this time?

Besides, Rhine had already judged Maleficent, and pure-blood hybrids really didn't matter to Voldemort.

After that, Xiaofu's purpose should still be to continue causing trouble.

Not to mention whether he was willing to run away for his life, even from the perspective of enriching his own strength, there were few places in the world as suitable as Hogwarts.

The composition of the personnel is unbalanced, primary school chickens are crawling all over the floor, and the level of committing suicide is the best in the world. There is no doubt about this.

Maybe if he can't survive for a few days, two red heads who are often invited to tea by Filch will obediently come to his door and become food for him to absorb his life force?

But when Rhine resorted to the "physical examination of all members" trick, Xiaofu found that he couldn't stay any longer.

Indeed, he captured the blind spots in the thinking of Rhine and even the professors in the school, and took Filch, the only one who was not suspected, as his host.

But the big guys are vegetarians?

After Xiaofu experienced repeated failures, he finally got a little more brains, and in a hurry, he selected another person who was excluded from the physical examination.

That's Harry.

Using Harry, Xiao Fu seized everyone's respect for the savior, played a perfect trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain, created the absolute opening tonight, and breathed a sigh of relief...

After making the above summary, Dumbledore shook his head helplessly: "Now Mr. Filch has disappeared and we have lost all clues..."

Seeing him like this, Rhine felt a sense of déjà vu.

Dumbledore was about to turn into the face of the deputy head of the Lotus Clan, take out Filch's black and white photo from behind, and make a decision to everyone——

"Announce it!"

"It's not... such a big person, why don't you stop looking for it?"

"Hasn't this been a long search?"

Rhine raised his hands speechlessly: "I don't think there is any trace."

"Oh?" Dumbledore and others looked over, "Would you like to hear the details?"

"Time...is not proportional to means. This is a question worth thinking about."

Rhine pointed out the most unreasonable flaw in the situation at hand.

"According to our review, Mr. Filch escaped from the school after causing chaos and relying on his familiarity with various secret passages and paths in the castle."

"There is no problem with this logically, but is it unnecessary in terms of purpose?"

Dumbledore and others were thoughtful and seemed to realize Rhine's point.

"Does anyone usually care about Filch? I feel guilty to say that I haven't cared about him, and I'm afraid you haven't either. This is an oversight on our part."

"Since no one cares about him, he just found a dark and windy night and ran away. Why did he make such a big fuss? At least he was exposed for more than ten hours in advance?"

Yup!

The eyes of several big guys also lit up.

Filch is different from others. If any teacher or student in this school suddenly disappears, someone who cares about it will raise questions within a few hours.

As for this squib, I'm afraid no one would care if he disappeared for a few days. Only Dumbledore and McGonagall would pay attention to him earlier.

"Looking at it this way, his actions tonight are contradictory."

"Or..." Rhine proposed an idea, "The reason why he creates chaos is not only to escape, but also to divert everyone's attention, just like taking us out of school."

The professors nodded one after another, but they were still puzzled.

Filch... no, what on earth is Riddle going to do that needs to divert everyone's attention?

Rhine's first thought was to wonder if Xiao Fu already knew the location of Ravenclaw's diadem and was trying to take it away to strengthen himself.

But after running to check it in person, he saw that the crown was still there from a distance. This suspicion went in the wrong direction.

He also took the time to visit the secret room and found that the basilisk was now eating well, sleeping well, and did not appear to be disturbed at all.

"Are there any blind spots in our thinking that we haven't gotten around?"

Professor Flitwick offered his opinion.

"Can you guess the target first? This target is impossible to guess."

Rhine and others nodded repeatedly, Flitwick's idea was right.

Where is Hogwarts?

Not even Dumbledore has mastered all the treasures and knowledge here, so there is no way he can get to the bottom of all these guesses...Eh?

The big bosses were suddenly shocked and all focused their attention on Dumbledore.

If we don’t look at it from the perspective of the target, in the entire chaotic castle tonight and the empty space, except for the dormitory converted from the old classroom in Rhine, the only thing left is the round principal’s office, right?

"Impossible," Dumbledore certainly guessed what they were thinking. "Since the last time someone sent a house elf to cause trouble, I have magically marked the collection. No movement can be hidden from my eyes."

Professor McGonagall immediately said: "By the way, could it be related to the last incident?"

"Ahem!" Rhine's old face suddenly turned red, and he decisively interrupted Mag's suspicion, "Everyone, didn't you notice that the principal's office was a little too quiet today?"

???

Question marks popped up on the professors' heads.

"That's right! I feel something's wrong too."

Suddenly there was a voice on the wall, and everyone turned around to see the portrait of the former principal and great therapist Delise Devante.

"What's wrong with this?"

This is the former principal Armando Dippet who is famous for being an old fool. He fired Newt Scamander, loved Tom Riddle, and wronged Rubeus Hagrid...

The bad things he did made him also known as the "Chamberlain of the Wizarding World".

"The noisy one isn't around, so of course it's quiet!"

As Dippet's portrait pointed, everyone's eyes turned and looked at a bare space high on the wall.

"The castle administrator came before and said he wanted to replace his photo frame, so he took it away."

As Dippet spoke, he looked at the professors below with his dim eyes and expressed his interest.

"Don't worry about these trivial matters and keep talking!"

"That Filch, which college did you graduate from? What course are you teaching now?"

"..."

The loop was closed, but everyone was furious.

Dumbledore put his hand on his forehead, looking as if he had an unbearable headache;

Professor McGonagall rolled her eyes to Siberia and pursed her lips so hard that they almost stuck together;

Professor Flitwick was obviously angry, and his body was now expanding infinitely like a pufferfish.

You are worthy of being the most foolish person in the wizarding world today! ! !

"Principal Black?"

A flash of inspiration flashed in Rhine's mind.

"What is he doing with Principal Black's portrait?"

It was taken away by the "castle caretaker" who entered the principal's office through chaos, and was not among the "treasures" marked by Dumbledore's magic...

None other than the most unpopular headmaster Hogwarts has ever had - Phineas Nigellus Black.

He is also the former head of the "Forever Pure" Black family.
