Change the world from Hogwarts

A silence spread like this.

Isobel didn't answer anything in the end, but when faced with Connor's straightforward questions, her eyes began to wander.

Maybe she is used to treating others with an indifferent attitude, maybe she doesn't seem that easy to get along with and is difficult to get close to.

However, she is not very good at lying.

Even at this juncture, her first reaction was not to lie, but to remain silent and express her resistance with practical actions.

Connor didn't know whether this was an advantage or a disadvantage.

He didn't even know if it was beneficial to him.

If she lied, he could explore without any scruples, but now she is only clearly expressing her resistance.

Wouldn't it be a little impolite for me to go in here haphazardly?

"Miss Isobel?"

Connor tried calling her name, but she had no intention of responding.

"Well……"

The moonlight shines into the room through the window, revealing an unspeakable embarrassment and coldness.

Finally, a name broke the silence.

To be precise, it's a surname.

"Blake?"

"?!!"

Although Isobel had tried her best to control her expression, her subconsciously clenched fists and facial twitching had betrayed all the thoughts surging in her heart.

"So, this is why you came here to find out the news from ten years ago. You and the Black family are..."

"It doesn't matter."

Isobel spoke up.

Without waiting for Connor to speculate further, she took the initiative to cut off all possibilities.

"not related."

This series of denials actually didn't prove anything, but made Connor even more doubtful.

"It doesn't matter, then why are you hostile to Principal Dumbledore because of this matter."

His eyes were very upright, and there was no other malice in them, just pure confusion.

But even so, Isobel felt like her heart was getting hairy.

In front of those eyes, she felt as if she had no secrets.

"Then why are you so sure that I hate him because of this?"

Then things started to get messy.

"..."

For a moment, Connor was speechless.

Although Isobel still seems to maintain her label-like calmness and silence, her performance has actually reached the edge of excitement.

The restlessness in her heart turned her into a bully spirit. No matter what Connor said or what he guessed, she could jump out and strike.

And in this case, it is not a rational thing to continue to force her.

So what else is there to say?

Nothing much to talk about.

After casually glancing outside the window, Connor shook his head.

"Then you go back."

After suddenly hearing these words, Isobel seemed a little unbelievable.

She just blinked her eyes and opened and closed her little mouth, looking like she was hesitant to speak.

But in the end, what came out was a simple question:

"How won't you tell Dumbledore?"

"Won't."

"...really not?"

"Do you need me to swear something? For example, make an 'unbreakable oath' with you? Or sign another contract or something?"

"……No."

In the end, Isobel just shook her head.

Seemingly finally regaining her true calm, she looked at Connor carefully.

"You don't seem like his biggest fan, nor do you look like you admire him like the others."

"uh-huh……"

At least, her guess was right.

Connor was not dazzled by Dumbledore's series of glittering and blinding titles, nor did he put on any idolatry filter.

"He is just an ordinary old wizard after all."

"He's still an old guy who likes to add insult to injury and doesn't report anything he knows."

"..."

On this point, Connor was not so sure.

He couldn't help but glance out the window, and finally smiled bitterly.

"You can say whatever you want, but there is one thing I want to make clear to you. Principal Dumbledore is instructing me to investigate things that happened ten years ago, and there are indeed some doubts in them."

"If you have any doubts, what has he been doing?"

Facing Connor's statement, Isobel first scoffed, but later, her attitude softened.

"Then did you find out anything?"

There was even a touch of hope and expectation in this inquiry.

"...three days, not to mention I only got the approval slip this morning. You think you can find out something in such a short time."

After hearing Connor's response, her eyes that were originally bright dimmed.

"so……"

"But it can't be said that there is no gain at all."

Then, her eyes lit up again, like voice-activated light bulbs.

But after a while, she suddenly came back to her senses.

"You fool me?!"

"No."

No matter what his true thoughts were, Connor could never admit this kind of thing.

"Anyway, I can tell you one thing. Sirius was wrongly accused. This is the only one that is absolutely correct. As for the others... I am still investigating."

"Take me one."

"What?"

"I said take me one."

Isobel said seriously.

"By the way...why can you stay in the library?"

"Uh... didn't I say that Professor Dumbledore authorized me to investigate some things that are inconvenient for him to investigate? In fact, this is essentially just a privilege."

"……I know."

After carefully looking at Connor, Isobel said.

She didn't show any doubt, she just changed the subject.

"But no matter what kind of privilege it is, there will always be a reasonable reason on the surface... He should not be the kind of person who would abuse his power."

"The reason he gave me for approval was that my academic performance was good enough."

"It's only been three days since school started, and my academic performance is good..."

Isobel subconsciously wanted to say something sarcastic, but in the end she just shook her head.

"I know, it's not a difficult thing for me. I'll find a way to apply for an approval later."

"...Can you apply to the principal?"

"No, Professor Flitwick will help me solve it."

Having said this, she stood up and seemed to want to leave directly.

But after walking to the wall, she felt a little dazed again.

"this……"

It was obvious that she was in a dilemma. She had no idea how to open the secret door, and Connor also used his wand to knock on the carvings on the wall.

The secret door opened, and the ancient and deep scenery in the library appeared in front of them again.

"that is it."

Isobel walked out of the secret door, but she quickly stopped again.

"Thank you."

She spoke, but as if she was afraid of any misunderstanding, she quickly added:

"I'm talking about the information you provided. Thank you for telling me this."

"……You're welcome."

"That's it, I'll have class tomorrow... No, let's just say goodbye like this!"

Isobel's figure quickly disappeared into the library. She first enveloped herself with the Illusion Charm, opened the door lock with the Unlocking Charm, and then carefully restored it before leaving again.

But that look was more like 'leaving' than running away.

Just looking at the closed library door, Connor sighed.

Then……

"Headmaster Dumbledore, I assume you should be here?"

"Yes, of course I am."

There was a sound coming from the darkness.
