Hogwarts: Is this junior good or evil?
Chapter 77 Dumbledore's Suspicion
Yang Tian, lying on the hospital bed, did not rush to get up, but closed his eyes and reviewed the entire attack process.
First of all, after thinking about it, I was actually very glad that I didn't bring the exquisite talisman with me. Maybe that was the only connection between all the members of Nightmare and the battle of the institute? If I was caught, I would be dead.
Secondly, this attack was definitely premeditated. But it is impossible to find clues from those dead black-robed wizards. Who was the traitor in the school? Filch is a major suspect. Although he may not be an insider, he must be a participant. But how did he, a Squib, gain the trust of Sarok? It is a blessing that he was not used as an experimental material.
Besides, he had never told anyone about his plan and route for the night tour. He could even say that he was just in the mood. But why would Filch lie in ambush there? Don't call it a coincidence. Filch was so excited and took it for granted when he grabbed Yang Tian's arm that it was certain that he was waiting for him there. Then how did his whereabouts get exposed?
Finally, the parchment Filch was holding was the result of the punishment according to the formal process of Hogwarts, which means that the treatment opinions were approved by the Hogwarts professor. Who is this professor? Is it one? Or several?
A series of questions left Yang Tian clueless, but Filch must be the breakthrough!
Investigate Filch, but don't rush it, otherwise it will alert the enemy! Yang Tian silently made up his mind...
After careful consideration, Yang Tian stood up and put on the Ice Silkworm Jade Suit again. At this time, the Ice Silkworm Jade Suit was glowing faintly again.
The Ice Silkworm Jade Clothes is just like this. It not only has powerful protective capabilities, but can also automatically restore energy over time.
Of course, the Ice Silkworm Jade Suit is not invincible, and its protective strength is directly linked to the strength of the owner. With Yang Tian's current magic power reserves, he can only block the siege of the black-robed wizards for a few minutes. If it were Dumbledore or Voldemort in his prime, the Ice Silkworm Jade Suit would probably only be able to withstand one or two attacks.
His mind raced, and his mood became more bitter. At this moment, he was even more eager for strength.
Yang Tian took out a new set of wizard robes, put them on, and went straight to Hagrid's ward.
"Hey, Hagrid, you okay?" Yang called gently as she entered the room.
"Oh, God, it's you!" Hagrid was very excited when he saw Yang Tian. Although he was lying on the hospital bed, his voice was still loud.
"I heard from Dumbledore that if you hadn't come to my rescue in time, I would probably have been killed by those bastards. Thank you." As he spoke, tears welled up in Hagrid's eyes.
"Don't say that, Hagrid. We are friends for life and death, aren't we? It was you who pushed me out at the risk of your life, which gave me the opportunity to send a distress signal and fight back. So no one should thank anyone." Yang Tian said firmly.
"But I still suspected that you really ran away. Although I really hoped that you could run away, I still felt uncomfortable because you didn't even look back. However, I was wrong. You actually came back and saved me. I felt very guilty."
As he spoke, Hagrid lowered his head with a flushed face, picking at his fingers nervously, like a child who had done something wrong.
Seeing Hagrid's look, Yang Tian laughed; "Okay, Hagrid, don't worry about those details. How long have we known each other at that time? If we were in other positions at that time, I would also be suspicious, and I might even curse at you! These are not important. What's important is that we helped each other and survived, and we will trust each other in the future, right?"
Hearing Yang Tian's answer, Hagrid nodded solemnly, as if relieved.
Next, the two talked about the topic of magical animals that they were interested in, which made their friendship heat up rapidly.
In fact, Yang Tian was very grateful to Hagrid this time. He was willing to sacrifice his life for him just after they met for a short time. This guy is worth getting along with.
So after chatting for nearly an hour, Yang Tian solemnly made a promise to Hagrid...
Hagrid's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "Really? God? When you go back to China to visit your relatives, will you really bring me a huge magical animal?"
"Of course, I want to add that it's not only huge in size, but also majestic. You have to know, Hagrid, magical creatures from all over the world are basically rated, and those with a slightly higher danger level are not allowed to be kept. The only exception is China, where magical creatures are not rated at all. Even if you keep one, it is not illegal." Yang Tian smiled.
"Merlin, that's perfect, Yang Tian, it must be huge, yes, and majestic..." Hagrid was already immersed in his own fantasy...
While Yang Tian and Hagrid were chatting in the ward, in the Hogwarts principal's office, Dumbledore was looking at Snape calmly and asked, "How is it, are there any clues about those bodies?"
Snape was obviously in a very bad mood. He said in a low voice with an unpleasant expression: "Clues? What clues can there be? Every part of the body, even the face, has been rotten, just like minced meat. There is not even a piece of paper in the clothes."
After hearing Snape's words, Dumbledore's face turned ugly, and he muttered to himself: "What kind of organization is this? It's too harsh and cold-blooded. Will they destroy all traces if the mission fails?"
After calming down, Snape asked, "What about your side? Did the little devil from the Foley family show any flaws? ... Nine years old, haha, he was only nine years old at that time... but he had already killed countless people! Do you remember everyone's reaction when Madam Longbottom showed us the killing bead?"
"That useless Arthur almost choked to death on the tea he drank!" Snape wantonly sprayed his venom...
Dumbledore also said solemnly: "This child is very opinionated, and his calmness in speech and behavior does not seem to be fake. But the killing bead can explain a lot of problems. Unfortunately, the killing bead cannot be used as evidence... Let's observe it for a while, as time goes by, there will always be flaws."
Snape was very dissatisfied with this answer. He couldn't help but ask: "Why not try Legilimency? We can't let a demon grow because of our soft-heartedness."
Dumbledore shook his head and sighed, "Severus, you are not a person who follows the rules. I don't believe you haven't tried and failed. I feel the breath of soul protection in him."
"Don't waste your time. We only know the result, but we don't know the reason or the process. More importantly, as time goes by, the aura of the vengeful spirit has gradually dissipated!"
"Mrs. Longbottom told me a few days ago that the Killing Pearl had stopped responding during the encounter at King's Cross Station. We don't have any evidence now. If we act rashly... think about it, the Foley family, the Greengrass family, or even a big family in China... We must be careful!"
Snape paused after hearing this, and finally changed the subject: "Let's get back to this incident. Did the kid from the Foley family and Hagrid provide any clues?"
Dumbledore obviously trusted Snape very much and told him all his conversations with Yang Tian and Hagrid.
Snape briefly organized his thoughts and said, "Dumbledore, I have a feeling that these people are acting in exactly the same way as those who attacked the pure-blood family a few years ago."
Dumbledore was shocked when he heard this, and he said slowly, word by word: "Yes, just as mysterious, just as well-organized, just as cruel... Go on, Snape."
"Then there is the issue of Hogwarts' internal affairs. Judging from the incident itself, premeditated collusion between insiders and outsiders is inevitable. So who is this insider? Filch?"
"No, Snape, although Filch has this or that shortcoming, I think he is still trustworthy," Dumbledore retorted.
Snape responded ruthlessly: "I have to say, Dumbledore, you are still so self-righteous! And I believe in truth serum more! You must understand the seriousness of the matter! A cruel and powerful mysterious organization has actually reached out to Hogwarts! We must dig him out! Otherwise, we cannot afford the consequences."
Snape's words made Dumbledore fall into silence, and the two of them just stared at each other, neither giving in.
Finally, Dumbledore said in a deep voice: "Okay, Snape, do as you think. I will contact old friends and investigate this organization from the outside, and you will dig out the traitor from the inside. But you must be careful not to act too hastily and do something that will alert the enemy. Otherwise, once the clues are broken, it will be difficult to dig them out again."
Snape agreed with Dumbledore's statement. After discussing some details, Snape walked out of the principal's office proudly. After a while, Fawkes the Phoenix quietly flew out of Hogwarts with the letter...
