Spotted By Grindelwald And Went To Hogwarts Chapter 167: The name of the cranky witch

Shawn nodded, and said in a serious tone: "That ghostly horned water snake."

Because Dumbledore said that the ghostly horned water snake would stay in the Forbidden Forest, so Sean never thought in that direction. But combined, the ghost long-horned water snake can be invisible!

It is different from the usual ghost, not only is it invisible, it can also cause damage.

Sean had some doubts before, why the murderer only cut the throat. If the killer was the ghostly horned water snake, it would make sense, and Fang's belly wound was just that - sharp but not serious.

Although the horned water snake has become a ghost, it is still a snake. Parseltongue is not only used to control basilisks, this language can communicate with all snakes!

The ghost long-horned water snake is obviously not very smart. Whether it is bewitched or lured by some kind of interest, it has become an accomplice of the heir to the secret room.

Professor McGonagall obviously thought of this, and her eyes became more and more serious: "It's unbelievable... But overall, the ghost long-horned water snake is probably an accomplice."

"Yes, professor, that guy is very special, but only this specialness can explain why the spell doesn't work." Sean said.

"This is going to be difficult. That guy is not a normal ghost. It can even become invisible and create illusions..." Professor McGonagall sat down with a headache.

Sean's complexion was also not very good-looking. Although he deduced a very likely murderer, how to deal with the ghostly horned water snake has become a new problem.

Sean even suspected that the long-horned water snake might not be a ghost anymore, but something else—non-existence.

Non-beings, also known as non-human paranormal phenomena, are a category of magical beings. They themselves transcend life and death, and have no counterpart in the Muggle world. Muggles can only perceive all currently known non-existence through indirect means.

Since non-existence is beyond birth and death, they are neither born nor die. Non-Existence arises from human emotions and feeds on those emotions. They keep coming up forever.

There are three typical non-existences: boggarts, dementors, and mischievous elves. Peeves in Hogwarts Castle is a special individual among mischievous elves.

The specific situation of the ghost long-horned water snake is not clear, but at present, it looks like a new non-existence. After all, the ghost is not as capable as it is.

Shawn told Professor McGonagall what he thought, and the stern witch nodded slowly after thinking: "Sean, your guess is reasonable, but the horned water snake exists in reality—this is most likely a new magical creature."

"Then is there a way to expel or trap it? It's similar to expelling dementors." Sean asked.

"New magical creatures, and spells about them may take a long time to be invented - Patronus spells didn't exist when Dementors appeared," Professor McGonagall explained.

Sean sighed in disappointment, which meant that they still had nothing to do with that guy...

But they don't know who the hidden heir is, and they can't do it through this aspect... Can they just wait for Professor Dumbledore to come back? If the ghost horned water snake continues to kill like this, Mr. Wallop will be interviewed by the government for buying a large number of live roosters.

Actually, Sean has an idea to deal with that guy.

Before, when he faced the ghostly horned water snake in the Forbidden Forest, it was afraid of the professors, but at that time, it possessed Hagrid.

At the same time, when that guy got out, Hagrid's mouth was obviously stretched, which meant that the ghostly horned water snake at that time had a real body.

Does that mean that if the possessed person is controlled, the ghost horned water snake will also be controlled? Or, when it is ready to possess, the enchantment can have an effect on it that switches to the physical state.

Sean feels that this possibility is very high, otherwise, with the characteristics of the ghost, wouldn't that guy be invincible, why would he keep sneaking around.

But that's the problem with this approach.

That guy is only interested in people with a high affinity for Fantastic Beasts, Sean and Daisy.

Sean is not interested in risking his life, he would rather let the chickens suffer for a while...

It is impossible for him to ask Daisy to do this, Sean has already treated Xiao Baihua as a younger sister, and if he really did this - Snape would have killed him in advance.

Having a headache, Sean bid farewell to the distressed Professor McGonagall, and now he can only hope that Professor Dumbledore will return to Hogwarts soon.

As soon as he went out, Sean met a transparent figure, which was Nearly Headless Nick.

The ghosts of Hogwarts have been acting as patrol officers and liaisons lately, after all, they don't have to worry about dying again. And Professor McGonagall also made a promise that if ghosts die unfortunately, they will be awakened first after the mandrake matures—Professor Sprout has developed a potion that can revive petrified people.

The ghosts naturally agreed generously. For them, sleeping for a while is not an unacceptable thing.

"Hey, Nick." Sean greeted.

"Oh, Sean," the almost headless Nick replied, and then said seriously, "You shouldn't be here alone. According to the notice from the professors, all students should go together."

In the beginning, Nick blamed himself very much for Edmund being petrified. After learning that Edmund could be awakened, he cheered up and is currently very concerned about the task assigned to him by Professor McGonagall.

Shawn nodded: "Yes, I understand, so my friend is already waiting for me over there."

He pointed to the corner of the stone corridor, where Hermione and Daisy were waiting. Recently, the three of them have been traveling together.

"Oh, good job," Nick nodded, he floated and changed his position, "Although it's only a distance away, I should **** you there."

Sean did not refuse the other party's kindness: "Thank you, Nick."

One person and one ghost walked towards the end of the stone corridor, and Sean asked casually, "Nick, have you ever heard that ghosts can also use magic?"

"Oh, that's not okay. Even very special ghosts can only slightly affect reality. For example, the Wailing Widow I mentioned to you. Her crying can make people very disturbed. Sometimes it can affect wizards' spells, but that's all." Nick explained in detail.

"Oh, well..." Sean was a little disappointed, and he changed the question, "By the way, Nick, do you know any other ghosts? I mean, for example, ghosts from some big families, or ghosts who know a lot of ancient knowledge-man, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that more people can help. Sir Nicholas of Mimsy must understand what I mean."

"Oh **** ho, you're right," Nick was very satisfied with Sean's address. He pulled his head and thought for a while, and then his eyes lit up. "Most ghosts probably won't be able to help, and I know what they know—I do know a ghost. She doesn't like to talk, has a bad temper and doesn't like to interact with people. I don't know her well, which means that she may be able to help you."

"Who is that ghost?" Sean asked curiously.

"That's the one I asked Edmund to pick up that day~IndoMTL.com~ I'm actually quite strange, she had been staying in the Comgarley Valley all the time, I just sent her an invitation for my 500th anniversary of my death out of politeness, and didn't expect her to come—who knew she would actually agree."

"Is that so... eh?" Sean suddenly thought of a question, "Did Edmund get her?"

There is no other petrified, dark ghost present.

Nick scratched his head: "Probably not, didn't something happen later, I guess she should go back to Comgarry Valley by herself, I'm quite sorry, I couldn't entertain her well."

"What's her name?"

"Very few ghosts know her. We all call her the Grumpy Witch. If she's by her real name," Nick thought for a while, "I remember, it seems to be Gormley Gaunt."

Sean stayed where he was.
