Hogwarts, where the stars shine

Although Dumbledore erased the symbols in the snow, Mesa was still able to find the exact location through memory.Where Undina Adjani had fallen last night, Mesa also lay.

Looking at the gray sky and the dark clouds rolling like wheels, Mesa's mind was racing.The cold snow made his thoughts clearer.

Starting from Hagrid's wooden house and walking to the crime scene near the greenhouse, this journey confirmed Mesa's guess - in the case of Adjani's attack, the perpetrator did a lot of tricks.

Lying in the snow, Mesa was multitasking. While reviewing what happened last night in his memory, he was also shuffling and reorganizing the time sequence to piece together a relatively reasonable timeline.

First of all, the attack on Adjani should have happened very early.Tell Veronica that she is not feeling well, and return to the common room first... These are orders from the perpetrator, and Adjani only passively follows them.

Although the victims of both attacks were girls, Collins Belinda and Undina Adjani were very different.

Belinda didn't like liveliness by nature and often walked alone. She even stayed alone in the castle during Quidditch matches.Belinda was an easy target, and her movements were easy to predict.

Adjani has a relatively cheerful temperament, and she is always inseparable from Veranika, going in and out together.

If Adjani felt unwell yesterday, it was just a sudden accident. How did the perpetrator know?

The person who caused the trouble couldn't just be waiting for something to happen, right?He did nothing serious every day and just stood in front of the Slytherin common room, waiting to see if any students were alone.

In this case, the perpetrator's efficiency would be too slow, and it would be easy to expose himself by wandering around the underground corridors.

Even if the perpetrator had known for a long time that Adjani would definitely feel unwell that afternoon, how could he be sure that he would not miss Adjani?What if the perpetrator was waiting in front of the common room while Adjani went to the school hospital?

Because of this, Mesa would tend to believe that Adjani had met the perpetrator a long time ago and was controlled by the perpetrator in advance.Like a puppet on strings, she followed the instructions and reported physical discomfort before dinner, taking the initiative to "leave herself alone".

First, she got rid of the inseparable Veronica, then left the castle as planned, prepared everything needed for the crime scene in advance, and finally fell in the snow, waiting for Hagrid to "discover" her.

All the perpetrator needs to do is induce Hagrid to let the gamekeeper leave his cabin and embark on a journey to find the crime scene.

This is the timeline that Mesa restored, or the plan he came up with.Mesa himself was not involved in this plan. His visit to the greenhouse last night was just a whim, a true accident.

In other words, Mesa's appearance was most likely not part of the perpetrator's plan.

Faced with sudden changes, the perpetrators had to temporarily change their plans, so Mesa heard the scream of "Adjani".

In a quiet night, in an empty venue, a woman's shrill scream can scare away many people.Even if Mesa can't be scared away, it can still make him "witness" Hagrid at the crime scene.

It's just that Mesa ran too fast. He replaced Hagrid originally planned in the plan and became the first person to find Adjani.

But there's one thing Mesa still doesn't understand: why didn't the other party set the crime scene near the cabin?Not only can you save a lot of trouble, but you can also avoid yourself as an unexpected troublemaker.

Belinda Collins of Ravenclaw House, who was found near Gryffindor Tower; Undina Adjani of Slytherin House, who was found near the Herbology Greenhouse, Professor Prout is the Head of House of Hufflepuff again...

Does the arrangement of Ravenclaw-Gryffindor, Slytherin-Hufflepuff, and perpetrator have any special meaning?

Which house will his next victim be, the Gryffindor lion or the Hufflepuff badger?

Where will the crime occur? Is it related to Ravenclaw Tower, or is it the underground where the Slytherin lounge is located?

Lying in the snow, Mesa had a headache. He hated these twists and turns.If one or two of them want to play some conspiracy, why can't they just face it head-on and cut all the way from Hogwarts to Hogsmeade? ! !

……

Mesa returned to the castle dripping wet, looking as if someone had just been fished out of a black lake.

He slouched up the marble stairs, staying in the snow so long that he missed breakfast perfectly.

A bloated Mesa climbed the stairs, his footsteps rattling the helmets on the wall.Some portraits greeted Mesa, but he ignored them and continued walking upstairs with his head lowered.

Not long after, Mesa stopped in front of a dizzying spiral staircase.

Mesa had not known the exact location of the Ravenclaw common room before, only knowing that it was in a tower of the castle.Penelo Crevat had told him about this staircase.

It's just that Mesa didn't go up the stairs, but walked around in circles near the stairs, one after another, as if he was looking for something.

Occasionally, Ravenclaw students passed by and looked at Mesa in surprise when they saw Mesa's strange behavior of spinning in circles.

After two periods of fermentation last night and this morning, the news of the attack on Wendina Adjani has spread throughout the school.This also includes the fact that Mesa was the first person to find Adjani.

Mesa and the three professors left the auditorium one after another. All the students enjoying dinner saw it with their own eyes. Then they saw Hagrid taking Adjani back to the castle. It was natural for everyone to think so.

Just as Mesa feared, as word spread, people suspected he was the murderer emerged.The only comforting thing is that there are only a small number of such people, and they are evenly matched with Hagrid.

Yes, such a small number of students are doubting that they are actually divided.

Half of the people thought it was Mesa because he was rumored to be a good fighter; the other half thought it was Hagrid because he seemed to be a good fighter.

When Mesa was tired of walking in circles and was thinking about going up to find Crevat, Penelo appeared quietly behind Mesa like a roundworm in his stomach.

"Hey!" Penello suddenly reached out and patted Mesa on the shoulder, "Ouch!"

Mesa subconsciously looked back. Fortunately, he realized something was wrong when he turned around, so he didn't become a famous figure in Hogwarts.Even though he had reduced his strength, Penello was still shocked.

Obviously he just wanted to make a joke, but he fell on his ass. You can imagine how aggrieved Penelo Crevat is now.

"Uh... I'm sorry." Mesa said. He didn't make excuses for his subconscious actions, nor did he blame Penelo for everything. Penelo couldn't be blamed for this.

The fault was that Mesa was not aware of Penelo's approach, the fault was that he failed to distinguish between friend and foe, and the fault was that he failed to control his subconscious.The latter two left Mesa unhappy with herself.

Penello was ashamed and annoyed. She ignored Mesa's kindly extended hand and stood up on her own.

After brushing off the dust on his body, Penello crossed his arms and turned his head angrily, deliberately not looking at Mesa in front of him.

But Peneiro stood waiting for a long time, and apart from the apology, he didn't even get a soft word from Mesa, let alone a low point.Is this a lack of emotional intelligence or excessive machismo?

"I've already fallen down, can't you say a few nice words to comfort me?" Penelo said directly, "Even if it's just perfunctory, it's okay to mean it!"

Mesa frowned and thought for a while, then said, "I'm sorry, I scared you just now."

Mesa really doesn't know how to get along with girls and how to be a self-disciplined backup.I have never had such an opportunity in my previous life, nor have I ever had such an idea.

At the beginning, Mesa's idea was very simple, to be a couple for the rest of his life, long live the pure love party.But as he grew older, he determined to be a free Neptune.

But today, Mesa can neither shout long live pure love nor be the King of the Sea.There's nothing I can do about it, Mesa's biological age is a little embarrassing!The ones who are similar in age are a bit tortured, and the older ones don’t play with him, which is particularly embarrassing.

For example, now, Penelo Crevat is a beautiful girl, and her chest muscles are bulging with her hands folded, but Mesa just can't have any evil thoughts about these little girls.

Sometimes, Mesa really wishes to grow up overnight and appreciate the ups and downs of the mountains in Europe and America.
