Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1188: Stupid Murder

"What happened?"

The shrill screams startled the customers in the bar.

The Hogwarts students who were drinking butter beer and chatting with their friends all got up from their chairs and rushed to the door of the bar. They saw a group of people on the street not far away. Look up at the sky.

A man is floating in the sky, screaming horribly.

More people moved towards that side, but they were just watching, and no one went up to help.

Actually, I can't blame them either, many people panic and don't know what to do.

Even the residents of Hogsmeade were helpless about this. In the end, a few Aurors in charge of the Hogsmeade patrol mission rushed over after sensing the movement here, trying to rescue the floating floating in the air. Poor girl.

"What's the matter?"

Harry asks Fred, George and Lee Jordan who are helping to maintain order.

"I don't know, but I hope she's okay."

George frowned and looked at the Aurors who were trying to break the curse. Feeling that these guys were unreliable, he reminded aloud, "It's best to find a way to put people down first, and then send them to Hogwarts, It's the closest to here, and maybe Dumbledore can lift the spell on her."

It seems to him that the Aurors probably won't be able to lift the spell on Katie.

The Aurors suddenly realized that they were about to pick up the **** the ground. George had taken out a bottle of potion from his pocket and poured it on Katie's face, so that her pain and screams were relieved to a certain extent.

"You, this..."

"Do you still have the antidote?" George asked back.

"I have a bottle here."

Fred reached out and took a bottle of potion from his pocket and threw it to George, and said to the two Aurors, who were a little stunned, "Better to ride a broom, it will be faster. Mrs. Rosemerta, you Don't mind borrowing the broom from the store.

"Oh, no problem, I'll go get it now."

"No, I'll do it!"

Fred used the Flying Charm to easily summon the broomsticks in the Three Broomsticks bar, and by the way, he summoned a stretcher out of thin air and transferred Katie up.

"What potion is that?" an Auror couldn't help asking, finding that the spell on the student had been relieved to some extent.

"The anti-spell agent can wash away most spells, but the effect is only average."

The two Aurors looked at each other, some doubting who was the real Auror-trained professional, and after immobilizing them, they flew to Hogwarts with a stretcher.

Watching the backs of the Aurors leaving, the Weasley twins shook their heads, realizing that the Aurors were more unreliable than expected.

"Does anyone know what happened?"

"You are Katie's friend."

Lee Jordan was one of the first to arrive here, and had already targeted the girl present who was most likely to know the truth.

"Can you tell us what's going on here and who cast a spell on Katie?"

Everyone turned their attention to the girl who was frightened and cried, hoping to get some useful information from her.

Hermione couldn't stand it anymore, she hurried to the girl, put her arms around her, and comforted her softly, "Don't worry, Katie will be fine."

"You are Lini, what happened just now, who cast a spell on Katie."

"What... no, there's a package... and something happened when it was torn open." Lini said with a choked voice.

"What package?"

"I don't know..."

"Don't touch that thing." Harry's cry startled the whispering students.

"What?"

The boy who was yelled at by Harry was stunned in place and stopped picking up the package, apparently not understanding what Harry meant.

"Don't touch the package on the ground, that thing is cursed."

Harry has seen what's peeking out of the package, an opal necklace, he can't be sure if it's the one from Borgin Burke's, but it must be dangerous.

Fred plays tricks and takes a spying device from his pocket, poking at the package, and quickly confirms that Harry is right that the opal necklace in the package is indeed a dark magic item.

"It has to be sent to Hogwarts, maybe Dumbledore needs to figure out what the **** is on it."

George waved his wand and wrapped the package again. For safety reasons, he put a layer of casing on it to make sure it was safe, and then looked around and asked, "Who is willing to do it for you, by the way, take Lini back. Hogwarts?"

Everyone looked at each other, but no one offered to help.

Just as Harry was about to step up, he heard from George.

"Forget it, I'll go by myself, let's go." George stretched out his hand to help the girl named Lini, Apparated and left.

"I might have seen it in the Borgin & Burkes, that opal necklace."

In the Three Broomsticks bar, Harry lowered his voice and said to the people around him, "It seems that someone bought that necklace and wanted to take it into Hogwarts through Katie, and wanted to use it to kill someone. individual."

"I don't think it's very likely Harry." Hermione shook her head and directly denied Harry's opinion.

Hermione felt a little nervous when she noticed that everyone was looking at her, took a deep breath, and explained uneasily, "This year, Hogwarts has strengthened security measures, I don't believe that necklace will be in the Entering Hogwarts without knowing it."

"Maybe someone was trying to kill Filch with that necklace," Ron spat.

"That's impossible Ron, I think Filch would probably use a spy device to determine if it was a black magic item after seeing the package."

"Are you trying to say that the guy who tried to murder someone with a necklace is an idiot?" Fred teased with a smile, pulling a bottle from his pocket and taking a sip.

"When did you learn to carry a wine bottle from Mad-Eye." Ron looked suspiciously at Fred's silver wine bottle.

"We don't dare to eat outside right now. God knows if someone will add some special seasoning to the food." Lee Jordan also has the same bottle.

"You should pay attention to Cedric, if I definitely add some ingredients to your drink and put you straight down, then you'll be finished." Fred took another sip and handed the bottle. Ask Harry, who has always been interested, "Would you like some?"

"What's in it?" Harry asked, sniffing it.

"Warm wine, warm to drink." Fred said with a smile, "Dobby helped prepare it, it really helped us a lot."

"Dobby?" Qiu Zhang asked in confusion.

"A house elf hired by Albert." Cedric sighed, "He is currently in charge of taking care of our lives."

"Look, even you are not against hiring house-elves," Hermione said excitedly.

However, no one answered her.

"It always feels like you're looking more and more like Aurors." Ron couldn't help but complain.

"If you're being targeted and you don't want to be unlucky because of it, you have to learn to be careful." Fred shook the bottle with a smile, and continued the topic just now, "I dare say Katie It must have been Imperius, and the guy who put it on her is a fool."

"If you ask Albert for divination, you should be able to find the culprit, right?" Harry asked suddenly.

"Should be, but I don't think he would waste time on a fool."

George walked over to Harry, smiled and pulled up a chair and sat beside him, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he said in a low voice, "The murderer should be hiding in the Three Broomsticks bar, Lini said Katie went to a When she came back from the toilet at Three Broomsticks, it became a little weird, and she still had the unmarked package in her hand. She thought that Katie should not have agreed to hand over the suspicious item. When the two sides **** the package, Accidentally ripped open the package, and the opal necklace inside fell out, and Katie apparently touched the necklace before she was seriously injured."

"It's impossible..." Hermione said suddenly.

"What?"

Everyone looked at Hermione in confusion.

"If there are Death Eaters or Dark Wizards approaching the three bars, the detection pocket watch will definitely respond." Hermione took the detection pocket watch from Albert from her pocket.

"If the person who cast the Imperius Curse on Katie was also imperiled by someone else, the pocket watch wouldn't be able to detect it," Fred reminded kindly. He knew very well where the flaws in detecting pocket watches were.

"Is Katie okay!" Harry asked.

"When I left, Snape seemed to be helping her with..."

"Wait, you mean Snape is treating Katie?"

"Yes, Dumbledore is not at school. Professor McGonagall asked Snape to help check Katie's injury and help her with emergency treatment. I heard that they are going to send Katie to St Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries. receive more formal treatment.”

"Who do you think Katie wants to give that necklace to?" Cedric asked suddenly.

"Me or Dumbledore." Harry said without hesitation, "I can be ruled out, though. After all, here I am, and Katie could just bring it to me. If I opened that package, it would have If you encounter a necklace, no matter who that person is, it will be bad luck."

Harry thinks he is lucky, and if it were him, he might have been demolished on the spot. At least, he never had the habit of carrying a secret explorer at all times.

"I don't think Dumbledore is going to get caught." Fred shook his head.

"A package without any markings looks suspicious," explained George. "In the past, we used to be very careful when opening such a package for Albert to prevent any spells being cast on the package. Or some dark magic item."

All three are experienced in this area.

It seems to them that even Albert is on guard, not to mention Dumbledore, and seeing such an unmarked package would definitely be suspicious.

"We've been discussing this for so long, and one thing has been confirmed, and that is that the guy who delivered the package is a total idiot." Harry felt absurd.

"You're an idiot indeed. Even if Katie had no accident, the package would be stopped by Filch, and he wouldn't be able to get into Hogwarts at all." Ron shrugged.

"Harry, who are you suspecting?"

"Nothing?"

"Come on, it's better than holding it in, maybe I can help you with a reference," George suggested.

"Well, I suspect that this has something to do with Draco Malfoy, and although there is no evidence, I always feel that it is likely that he did it."

After noticing the expressions on other people's faces, Harry shrugged his shoulders with a pretense of ease and said, "Of course, this is just a suspicion, so I feel that I should ask Albert to help with a divination, and I will definitely be able to know what it is. who did it."

"I don't know if Draco Malfoy did it, but according to Lini..." George stole a look at Mrs. Rosemerta at the bar counter.

"You think Mrs. Rosemerta is under the Imperius Curse?" Cedric knew immediately what George meant.

Several people turned to look at Mrs. Rosmerta, but couldn't see anything wrong.

"It should be an accident that the necklace was stuffed to Katie, maybe Mrs. Rosemerta would stuff it to any Hogwarts student who went to the toilet alone?" George briefly stated his guess.

"But, how come no one sees something wrong with Mrs. Rosemerta?" Ron felt incredible.

"Mrs. Rosemerta is not a strong-willed person, and it is not difficult to control her with the Imperius Curse." Fred looked at Cedric and asked, "You didn't see that your friend was killed. Imperius control!"

"Not at all." Cedric shook his head

"What are we going to do, expose Mrs. Rosemerta to the Ministry of Magic?" Qiu Zhang looked nervously at his boyfriend, where they had just had a glass of butterbeer.

"No, keep this matter a secret first, then tell Dumbledore and let Dumbledore handle this matter." George turned his head to Harry and said, "I think this should be the safest way. With Harry, if you're okay, go back to school as soon as possible, even if there are Aurors patrolling here, it's not safe, and we'll get out of here as soon as possible."

"Wait, don't forget about the Defense Association." Cedric reminded quickly

"Oh, this matter, next time I teach something simpler, and then you can discuss it later." Fred said without hesitation.

"We were going to teach how to set up a makeshift camp to keep ourselves safe~IndoMTL.com~ Hermione said what she was going to talk about at the party.

"It's a good idea. I'll teach it when the time comes. It's a very practical thing." George made a decision, and he didn't forget to remind the three that they should leave.

"I would like to ask Albert for a divination."

"Don't waste your money Harry, I guess Dumbledore can guess who did it." Fred reached out and patted Harry on the shoulder, followed the others out, and then used Apparition directly. left.

"Harry, are you still suspicious of Malfoy?" Hermione asked on the way back to school.

"Yes, I have a gut feeling that this has something to do with Malfoy." Harry said of the reason why he would guess that way, "Lucius Malfoy tried to assassinate Albert at a wedding last time, but instead Ambushed by the Ministry of Magic, killing many Death Eaters, and now locked in Azkaban, the Malfoy family is basically finished. If the Malfoy family wants to regain the trust of Voldemort, killing Dumbledore will undoubtedly be The best option. As you know, Voldemort wants Dumbledore to die."

"But Malfoy is underage," Hermione reminded.

"You shouldn't judge by age, that's ridiculous."

"After all, I'm not an adult!" Harry showed a rather odd expression, "But I don't have to face all that yet, I have no choice."

"Maybe the whole thing is still an order from You-Know-Who to Draco Malfoy."

"Why did the You-Know-Who do that?" Ron asked incredulously.

"Revenge, for Lucius Malfoy's incompetence, for his failure to keep his diary, and for my destruction of the Horcrux," Harry whispered, "Voldemort was never a big-hearted man. "
