Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 315: Abnormal case report

()"...Maca and Dumbledore told us with their actions that for Professor Umbridge, we don't have to be afraid of her, but we can't choose to confront her. The update is the fastest"

Hermione’s words came to Maca from Luna’s mouth.

To be honest, Maca recognized Hermione's keenness very much. If Hermione still chooses to enter the Ministry of Magic in the future to contribute to the reform of the magical world, at least she won't be barred from making progress due to some situational judgments.

The situation right now, just as Hermione had judged.

The battle between the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters continues, but because of Maca's repeated strategies, this struggle has long since turned to the dark. It was originally expanded by Voldemort to the offensive and defensive situation of the entire British magical world, but now it has finally been confined to the "central area" of the Ministry of Magic.

The key point is that Voldemort, who was repeatedly forced by Maca's campaign plan, not only lost people, but also lost his "power." He wants to dominate the British magical world. Without these two things, it would definitely not work.

That's why he gave up the previous "national panic operation" and instead focused on the power center of the Ministry of Magic, trying to make a final decision from the perspective of rights.

Not to mention the disadvantages of doing this, at least the advantages are indispensable, after all, neither Maca nor Dumbledore can blatantly use a magic wand to smooth everything.

"Luna, you don't need to care about these messy things. Just study at ease and do what you like to do. When these troubles are over, I will go to Sweden with you to find a corner snoring. Beast!"

Maca sat behind the desk and gave her a relaxed smile.

Listening to Maca’s words, Luna didn’t nod immediately although she looked a little moved.

"...Maca...they seem to have a good relationship."

Looking at this girl who was in a trance all day and seemed to care about nothing, Maca really didn't want her to be involved in this dangerous dispute.

But what she said now made Maca's heart startled.

Luna is a kind-hearted girl with a clear heart. Perhaps it is precisely because of her pure mind that she often insight into people's hearts inadvertently.

Maca's protection for her, she must have noticed that this is not a very secret thing, and this protection is out of Maca's care.

Luna can feel it, it seems that there is a kind of warmth surrounding her, making her feel very comfortable.

Because of this protection, Maca almost ignored her true feelings: this girl who has been incompatible with others since childhood and has always been on the verge of loneliness, is actually the most eager for friendship. of.

She envied the innocent friendship between the little lions, but because of the warmth that Maca brought to her, she subconsciously did not want to go against Maca's wishes.

"...Let me think about it!"

Maca’s words sounded endless, but the communication between him and Luna has always been like this, which is not surprising.

Luna blinked her eyes lightly. She didn't know if she understood it or not, but there seemed to be an innocent smile on her face.

……

On Maca's side, he was quite comfortable as a professor, but on the Black House side, he received a somewhat unusual report.

"...Do you think this case is related to Voldemort?"

In the reception room of Black House, Lupin frowned slightly looking at the report in his hand.

"You have to ask, he must have not run away!" Sirius said impatiently.

Because he has been trapped in the house, he feels that the dog hair on his body is about to get moldy, but he also knows that he really can't just run out casually, so he can only get sulking.

"Kingsley said that the key question is not whether it has something to do with Voldemort, but what kind of magic caused the symptoms of the wizard in the case." Tonks, who had just returned from the Ministry of Magic Tao.

"Yes!" Lupin thought for a while, then shook his head. "It's very different from the "Black Death" that McLean said, but there are some things in common. Confused mind."

"It is said to be related to the soul, but I don't know if it's specific." Tonks said casually, and when everyone else looked at her, she immediately waved her hand." Don't look at me, I also heard a few words from Maca."

Sirius slapped his tongue and sighed heavily.

"Since we can't judge, let's contact McLean as soon as possible!" Lupin pondered for a while, and then made a decisive decision, "Molly, please give McLean a signal!"

"Um, yes."

Mrs. Weasley responded, then turned around and walked quickly upstairs.

"I am unconscious, in a daze for a long time, and then gradually fall into madness, and show an extremely strong attack**...I hope this is just a case, otherwise..."

As Lupin said, the members in the reception room couldn't help showing a solemn color...

Not long after, Maca received a letter from an unknown destination. Looking at the symbol in the middle of the blank letter paper, he knew he had to go back tonight.

Although I don't know what happened, since I will contact him, it means that the Order of the Phoenix must have encountered a problem. It just seems that this problem is not very urgent, otherwise the secret letter sent should be in a red envelope.

That night, Maca hurried back to the old house of Black.

"McLean, what do you think?"

In the sight of everyone inquiring, Maca just shook his head slightly.

"It seems that it should be some kind of influence on the soul. At this time, Voldemort is obviously incapable of getting rid of suspicion," he pondered for a while, then continued, "However, this kind of thing can only be seen in the report. I don’t see a specific situation...what about the victim? Where is it?"

"Uh... victim?" Tonks hesitated, "Are you talking about the crazy wizard, or the other two wizards killed by that crazy wizard?"

"Of course it's the crazy one..." Maca shrugged.

"Should still be locked in the dungeon of the Ministry of Magic!" Tonks said truthfully.

"Um..." Maca frowned upon hearing this, "Since you are in the dungeon, it means that you can't visit at will?"

"Yes! Now this case is being watched by Scrimgeour's people. For the time being, only Kingsley has contact with the case report on our side." Tonks nodded helplessly.

"Then he is working overtime because of this now?"

"Kingsley? It's true that he is working overtime, but he is working overtime for the Order of the Phoenix, not the Ministry of Magic," Tonks said, "He can only be indirectly exposed to that case. Now he has gone to the crime scene to investigate on the spot, hoping to find some reliable clues."

"Really?"

Maca said, looked down at the report file in his hand, and then handed it to Lupin casually.

"I'll go to Kingsley first. If it doesn't work, I can only rely on you to find a way to get close to the mad wizard." He said, "The previous movement in the Department of Mystery is too great, right now I am not suitable to go again."

"If there is nothing to gain, I won't come back. I can't walk away from Hogwarts for the time being. Then you need to pay more attention to whether there are similar cases."

Speaking of this, he paused, and added: "If you find out before the Auror of the Ministry of Magic, find a way to bring the victim back, of course, the premise is to be safe!"

"Okay, I know what to do." Lupin nodded immediately.

As a result, Maca did not return to the Command of the Order of the Phoenix this night. Obviously, they did not find anything special at the scene of the crime.

It's just that, in Kingsley's mouth, he obtained some newly collected intelligence.

About the wizard who went crazy inexplicably, his symptoms continued. Although occasionally there will be a slightly calmer period, but most of the time is still in a very unstable mental state.

For the time being, the Ministry of Magic used magic to control it, but the danger still exists.

It is worth mentioning that the "slightly calm" daze period is still continuously shortening, and the period of falling into madness is getting longer and longer.

If this continues, sooner or later the wizard will go completely mad, and will be exhausted and die after a long period of sleeplessness.

……

In the early hours of the next morning, in the Gryffindor Tower, in the girls' bedroom.

The weather is gradually cooling off recently, everyone is wearing thin sweaters, and Hermione is no exception.

It's just that she got up from the bed early this morning. Probably because the temperature was particularly low before dawn, she still wore a blanket on her body.

While the roommate was still asleep deeply, Hermione was lying on the desk in the dormitory alone, playing around with something.

It seems that for fear of disturbing the roommate’s sleep, the oil lamp on the desk emits only a faint light, which slightly wipes out the darkness before the sun rises~IndoMTL.com~ A little bit with time As one drop passed, a ray of sunrise finally revealed a ray of sunshine between the gaps of the curtains.

A flat beam of light quietly landed on the blanket on Hermione's shoulders, and also on the side of the desk, but Hermione, who was concentrating on the work on her hands, didn't notice it quickly.

When the darkness in the room was gradually dissipated by the rising sun, she finally turned her head back suddenly, squinting her eyes to the window.

Under the sunlight, the curtains are outlined with a circle of golden light.

Hermione couldn't help but stretched out and yawned deeply. Then she re-covered the square box on the desk, then stood up and gently opened the corner of the curtain.

"It's a nice weather today," she smiled vigorously like the sunrise on her face, "If you want to, I will discuss it with Maca today, anyway, it's almost done!"

While she was talking, she glanced back at the box on the table, her smile on her face a little smug.
