Hogwarts, where the stars shine

In the underground corridor leading to the Slytherin common room, gusts of cold wind caused the torches on the wall to sway, and the figures on the ground also swung their teeth and claws.

Snape and Mesa stopped beside the empty, damp stone wall.Through this stone wall is the Slytherin's lake-view room.

"I think you should know very well what you can and cannot say." Snape said, his deep black eyes were cold and showed no emotion.

A student was attacked in school, and this kind of thing cannot be hidden.But what needs to be done is to appropriately guide students’ public opinion and try to reduce the spread of panic among the student population.

Mesa nodded, indicating that he understood and would not say everything to others.

You can tell some basic information about the crime scene, but the professors’ inferences must not be revealed.Mesa should not reveal a single word of the hypothesis that Professor Mikkelsen gave at the end.

Professor Mikkelsen walked around in a big circle, and he even went to the greenhouse to have a look.Despite walking a lot, Professor Mikkelsen found nothing, as if the perpetrator disappeared out of thin air after attacking Adjani.

The reason why Mikkelsen mentioned Hagrid was not because he suspected that the gamekeeper was the perpetrator of the attack, but because he believed that the perpetrator was taking advantage of Rubeus Hagrid.

Rubeus Hagrid, the gamekeeper and keykeeper of Hogwarts, many students did not know that he was expelled from the school, let alone that he had a criminal record in the Ministry of Magic and had his wand broken.

Mikkelsen suspected that the perpetrator wanted to take advantage of this and release the news that Hagrid had been involved in a student injury case, so as to shift the attention to Hagrid and even lead the conflict to Dumbledore.

If guided properly, it is very likely to arouse students' oppositional emotions and completely muddy the waters of the school.

But there was one problem with Mikkelsen's suspicion, and that was how to ensure that Hagrid was seen at the crime scene.You must know that Hagrid's cabin is near the Forbidden Forest, but the crime scene is near the greenhouse, in another direction.

Hagrid should still be in the campus hospital at this moment, and the professors could ask him questions to get more details, most importantly why he happened to be near the greenhouse.

But if Mesa wanted to know these contents, he could only hope that Snape or Hagrid himself could be as tight-lipped as a jar.Mesa doesn't have high hopes for this.

"Also, I heard that you lost to Mikkelsen?" Snape continued, "The loss seemed quite miserable."

"You don't need to hear that it happened." Mesa readily admitted his defeat.It's not scary to lose. What's scary is that you refuse to admit your defeat and find all kinds of lame excuses.

I thought Snape would take the opportunity to laugh at him, but who would have thought that he would actually make chicken soup, and the chicken soup was not poisonous.The poisonous professor transformed into a warm man tonight, making people feel like a spring breeze.

He said: "You are still young, and it is okay to lose once in a while. The important thing is what you can learn from this failure."

It is good to have a smooth life, but who can live a life without any setbacks?It's not a big deal if the waves are rough. The key is whether you have the courage to weather the waves.

Snape suddenly became as warm as the spring breeze, which shocked Mesa for a whole year.He was trying to comfort me, right?Isn't this a disguised mockery of me?

It wasn't that Mesa was a bitch, but Snape's mean impression was too deeply rooted in people's hearts.He suddenly changed his style tonight, and Mesa was somewhat uncomfortable with it.

"Uh...Professor, I have been deeply aware of my shortcomings." Mesa said, he still felt that something was wrong with his dean.Could it be that Snape was stimulated because Adjani was injured?

Severus Something is wrong tonight Snape continued: "To give you a little advice, don't get too close to John Mikkelsen, let alone be affected by his words. For you now, he is a Dangerous person."

"Professor, I don't quite understand," Mesa said. "Is it because of the things he did at the Ministry of Magic in the past?"

Three months into the school year, the students almost all know about Professor Mikkelsen's deeds, but no one knows exactly what he did and how he was kicked out of the Ministry of Magic.

"As an idiot like you, I don't expect you to understand. You just need to remember." Snape said, "Don't be fooled by anyone before your own thoughts mature. Including me and Dumbledore." profitable."

Although Snape started training Mesa for a certain purpose.But what has to be admitted is that his training of Mesa was not in the direction of a tool man.

Snape taught Mesa more than just magic, and at some points, he also acted as a master.It is not a simple teacher-student relationship like Hogwarts, but a master-disciple relationship similar to "preaching, learning, and solving doubts."

It would be perfect if this master could be a little less mean and a little more patient.

"I understand, Professor," Mesa said. "I've always felt that Professor Mikkelsen was a dangerous person."

Mesa has realized this a long time ago. Even if Snape doesn't warn him tonight, Mesa will hide as far as he can.At the beginning of the school year, Mr. Shafiq also wrote a letter, telling Lilia to stay away from this dangerous person.

"Professor, I have another question." Mesa asked, "These two attacks and injuries should have nothing to do with Professor Mikkelsen, right?"

In fact, Mesa did not doubt John Mikkelsen, even though he was the new professor this year and the only person walking freely around the crime scene tonight.Mesa was just allergic to the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor and needed Snape to reassure him.

Snape shook his head and said very firmly: "No. If Mikkelsen really wanted to do something, the only person he would target would be Dumbledore. He has no interest in playing with you little brats. .”

Does this exalt John Mikkelson, or does this disparage Steele Martin?

It's a bit unkind to drag people out and whip their corpses when they haven't been alive for several months!

"Okay, go back. I think there must be someone waiting for you in the common room." Snape continued, "Pass a message for me, even if they want to play detective games, don't stay like headless chickens in the castle. Wandering around!"

After speaking, Snape swung his robe sleeves and walked away, disappearing into the cold windy corridor in an instant.Mesa also turned around and spoke the password, crossing the wet stone wall.

In the green common room, many students were waiting anxiously. They were waiting for Mesa to return with inside information.

After dinner, a student happened to see Hagrid and saw someone in his arms.With Collins Belinda at the forefront, many people immediately realized what was happening.

Although everyone returned to the common room in an orderly manner with the comfort of several professors, their hearts were still in their throats.Especially when I found that Undina Adjani was missing after I came back, I was even more worried.

It's not that the Slytherins are so harmonious and loving, nor that Adjani is so popular, but it brings back bad memories for everyone.The Slytherins didn't want to experience last year's crisis in the common room again.

As soon as they saw Mesa passing through the stone wall at the entrance to the lounge, many people immediately stood up and gathered around him excitedly.

Suddenly seeing how "enthusiastic" the Slytherin students were, Mesa subconsciously pulled out his wand.The poor kid obviously misunderstood. He thought these students were planning to beat him.
