Hogwarts Survival Sim

"Transfiguration!"

Hermione whispered a spell, and before being discovered by the professors and Fudge, she moved the surrounding Christmas trees over to cover them.

Fortunately, no one seemed to notice here. The professors and Fudge sat in a nearby position, just enough for Ethan and the others to hear their conversation clearly.

"Da da……"

First there was the sound of high heels coming from far away, and then a woman's voice came.

"A small glass of canyon water..."

"Mine." Professor McGonagall's voice.

"Four pints of mead..."

"Thanks, Rosmerta," Hagrid said.

"A pear soda with ice and snails..."

"Hmm!" said Professor Flitwick, smacking his lips.

"Then yours is red currant rum, minister."

"Thank you, Rosmerta, darling," Fudge's voice said, "I must say, it's great to see you again. Would you like to have a drink too? Come and sit with us..."

"Okay. Thank you, Minister."

The four people behind the Christmas tree listened to their conversation silently and attentively, but what they heard next shocked everyone except Ethan.

"...You know, Connelly, if you're going to have dinner with the Headmaster, then we might as well go back to the castle now."

This private meeting came to an end with Professor McGonagall's last words. The door of the bar was opened, a large amount of snowflakes rolled in, and the teachers left.

After a long time, seeing that Harry had no intention of taking off the invisibility cloak, Ron asked very worriedly:

"Harry? Are...are you still there?"

"Huh? Oh, I'm still here."

With that, Harry reappeared at the table.To Ethan's surprise, Harry didn't look shocked or angry. On the contrary, he was concentrating and thinking calmly.

"Harry, are you okay?" But seeing him like this, Ron was even more worried. He felt that Harry might have been too stimulated and became a little abnormal.

"I'm really fine, Ron." Harry replied dumbfounded, "But I want to go back to Hogwarts first, what about you?"

"I'll go back with you." Ron said immediately.

"So do we," Hermione agreed.

It was obvious that both of them were a little worried about Harry's mental state at the moment.

"That's just right. I also have something to tell you. How about we go directly to the activity room later?"

"no problem."

So Harry took Ethan, Hermione and Ron and quietly slipped into the secret passage in the Bee Duke's basement that led to the school. About an hour later, they returned to the school.

"Let's go." When they arrived on the eighth floor, the four of them entered the Room of Requirement. There was no one else in the activity room at this time. They moved a few chairs into a circle and sat together.

"So, what do you want to tell us, Harry?" Ethan asked. He was really curious about how far Harry was investigating the matter, or to what extent he was reasoning.

"What I say next, you may think I'm crazy," Harry said slowly, "But this is indeed the conclusion I have reached, that is, the person Sirius Black is hunting is probably It’s not me.”

There was a moment of silence in the room.

"Why do you say that? There must be a reason."

"Let's start from the beginning," Harry pondered for a while, seeming to collect his thoughts, "Let me ask you a question first. Why does everyone think Black is hunting me?"

"Because of what Black said in Azkaban, Harry." Ron replied hesitantly. Now he really felt that Harry was a little stimulated and had begun to babble. "Do you remember when he was sleeping?" babble? 'He's at Hogwarts, he's at Hogwarts...'"

"Yes, that's the problem, Ron." Harry said firmly, "Who can prove that the 'he' in this sentence refers to me?"

"But Black only has a grudge against you, Harry." Hermione retorted, "He is the number one follower of You-Know-Who, and you are the one who defeated You-Know-Who. Maybe he thinks that as long as he kills you..."

"These are all our hearsay and speculation, aren't they?" Harry interrupted her, "In fact, after listening to the conversation in the bar just now, I feel more and more that something was wrong back then."

"I don't know."

"We need to put everything together to see some clues, Hermione." Harry looked into their eyes and said seriously, "Don't preconceptions that he is hunting me, analyze his behavior and what we got Clues are closer to the truth.”

"Now let me talk about a few very suspicious things I found. The first point is the timing of Blake breaking into the school."

"opportunity?"

"That's right. According to Fudge, even when he was in Azkaban, Black still acted very sober and spoke very coherently, which shows that he has the ability to think normally. In this case, if he really wants to If you kill me, you will never choose a time like Halloween dinner to invade the common room.”

"Couldn't it be that he forgot the time?" Ron questioned unconvincingly.

"Is this really the case? Think about it Ron, on the day of the Halloween dinner, there were special decorations everywhere in the school. Even if Blake really forgot the time, he should always think when he saw these holiday decorations Get up. At this time, he did not choose to go back the same way and wait for the next opportunity. Instead, he boldly invaded the Gryffindor dormitory. Did he know that this would expose himself, just to take a gamble that I did not go to the dinner party? A slight possibility?"

"This……"

"That doesn't make sense, Ron. Unless his target wasn't me at all, but someone who would still be in the Gryffindor dormitories even during Halloween dinner."

"I don't think there is such a person. Who wouldn't go to the dinner party?"

"Yeah, who wouldn't attend?" Harry smiled mysteriously, "Let's put this question aside for now. Next, let's talk about the second doubt."

"Then why was Blake able to avoid our carefully laid trap?"

"Yes, this is indeed very suspicious!" When talking about this topic, Ron suddenly became energetic. "Logically speaking, he cannot avoid it so easily."

"So, the only possibility is that he already knew that we had set this trap, and even knew the details of the trap."

"how can that be?"

"Why is it impossible?" Harry asked, "Do you still remember the unexpected situations we summarized on the school bus when school started? One of them was, what should we do if Black has an accomplice?"

"You mean there is a traitor among us?!"
