Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

Harry searched the secret room carefully for nearly two hours. He looked carefully from the floor to the walls to the ceiling, but found nothing.

On the other side, Zhang Xu, who pretended to be looking for clues but actually fished for fish all night, was already yawning.

"No clues were found tonight." Harry said to Zhang Xu with a bit of reluctance.

I struggled so much at the beginning tonight, but in the end I gained nothing.

"I think you should bring Professor Dumbledore here next time." Zhang Xu said to Harry, "Maybe he can find something that we couldn't find."

Harry felt that what Zhang Xu said made sense, and after seeing the slightly tired look on his face, he decided to end his actions tonight.

After finishing this anticlimactic operation, Zhang Xu went back to his dormitory to wash up and go to sleep. The few clues found in the passage made the Harry trio think about it.

For other things, Zhang Xu will go to Lao Deng when he is free and ask him what he thinks.

The following days returned to normal.

The students of Hogwarts ushered in the first Quidditch match of the school year.

Outside the school, the only good news was that the new knight bus was put into use. Other than that, the news basically failed to make the wizards happy.

Since the last search operation in the Chamber of Secrets almost failed, the Harry trio have stepped up their surveillance of Malfoy.

Hermione, who wasn't very interested in Quidditch, even used an excuse like feeling unwell to not watch the match between her house and the Snake House. Instead, she stayed in her dormitory and watched Malfoy's actions with the Marauder's Map. .

After Voldemort's public appearance at the end of the last school year, Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic went through a series of transactions, and most of the educational orders issued by the then Minister of Magic Fudge and most of the orders of Senior Inquisitor Percy Weasley were revoked . But neither party forgot to revoke Percy's ban on Draco Malfoy being banned from playing Quidditch for life.

Even now that Malfoy has earned an Order of Merlin, this ban is still in effect. During this period, Malfoy wrote to the Ministry of Magic to reflect on this problem, but all of those letters were lost in the ocean.

In Harry's eyes, when almost the entire school was watching the Quidditch match, it was the best time for Malfoy to cause trouble.

As a result, on the Marauder's Map, apart from seeing that Malfoy did not leave their college common room, Hermione only saw someone Zhang teasing Mrs. Norris and Crookshanks on the balcony of the corridor for a long time, as well as Leni Fu ran to the top of the astronomy tower.

It was late at night, and the trio of Zhang Xu and Harry, who had obtained the approval of Vice-Principal Professor McGonagall to go to the Centaurs tribe to attend Firenze's wedding, were returning to Hogwarts Castle after attending the wedding.

The Centaur's wedding was an eye-opener for the Harry trio, and they feasted on all kinds of fruits and mushrooms that they rarely eat in daily life.

As for why tropical and subtropical products such as sugar cane, pineapple, watermelon, pomelo, mangosteen and custard apple appeared at the wedding banquet, Zhang Xu asked the three of them to ask Scarlet.

Several people were walking and chatting in the Forbidden Forest, and the topic turned from today's Quidditch match to the Lions Chaser Katie Bell who was injured because of the opal necklace.

As the captain of the Lions Quidditch team, Harry recently wrote a letter to Katie Bell to learn about her physical condition. He told several people around him: "Katie Bell is sending her to St. Goma received good care after being admitted to the Magic Injury and Injury Hospital, and she is recovering quickly now. It is estimated that she will be back after the Christmas holiday."

"Have you found the murderer?" Zhang Xu asked Harry and the others.

Since Katie Bell's accident, the students in Hogwarts have once again embarked on a journey to solve the case, and the Harry trio have been involved as the parties involved.

It's just that Zhang knew the murderer early on, and there were only more than two hundred and sixty days before the college entrance examination, so he didn't get involved.

Now I don’t know what step this group of time-tested students has achieved.

So Zhang Xu asked out of curiosity.

"You are one of the suspects." Hermione said to Zhang Xu.

Zhang Xu was stunned and almost spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Why me?" Zhang Xu asked confused.

"Because when someone gave the necklace to Katie Bell, no one had seen you elsewhere in Hogsmeade." Hermione explained to Zhang Xu.

Looking at Zhang Xu in a daze, Hermione continued to explain: "We spent a long time doing the investigation. Most of the people who went to Hogsmeade have more than two people who can prove that the other person was not in the third party at the time. In the women’s room at the Broom Bar.”

"And a few people, including you, don't have an alibi at the time."

"Very good, very powerful." Zhang Xu nodded and said to Hermione, "This method of relying on the masses and mobilizing the masses to carry out step-by-step investigations is very good. I think the culprit is likely to be among the suspects you found."

Then Zhang Xu looked at Harry and asked, "Looking at Harry's actions, I think Malfoy is among them, right?"

"Malfoy said that he took a detour from the residential area to the Owl Post Office, but few students would go to the residential area, so there are no witnesses to prove whether his words are true or false." Hermione answered.

"What about the others?" Zhang Xu asked.

Hermione obviously played a huge role in this investigation, and the details of the investigation are countless. She said: "A couple claimed that they were upstairs in the Pig's Head pub, and the owner of the Pig's Head refused to answer any of our questions."

"A seventh-grade student claimed that he was looking for a house to rent in a residential area and planned to move there after graduation."

At this time, Zhang Xu was sure that the students had not communicated with the Aurors, otherwise they would have narrowed their targets to Zhang Xu and Malfoy.

"I think the person looking for a house is innocent." Zhang Xu said to Hermione, "He had asked me if I could rent my house before."

"What about you?" Hermione looked at Zhang Xu and asked, "No one has seen you for a long time that day."

"I was on the second floor of that coffee shop at that time, and the waiters in the shop can all testify for me." Zhang Xu said.

Zhang Xu's ability to go to the second floor of the coffee shop was something that many people knew about and were jealous of. Hermione believed him when he said this.

Zhang Xu continued: "Have you ever thought about the Imperius Curse or the Polyjuice Potion? If the real murderer uses these two methods, then it is very likely that others will become scapegoats."

"So now our investigation is at a deadlock." Hermione said, "Now we can only guess the target of the murderer, and then infer who the murderer is."

Hearing this, Zhang Xu was relieved. No wonder Harry was chasing Malfoy's ass to investigate, while Hermione and Ron had limited opposition. That was because Malfoy had sufficient motives.

"Who in the school has such a big feud with whom now?" Zhang Xu said.

At this time, Ron, who had been standing by and said little, said "haha" twice.

Hermione glared at Ron and said, "Say what you know. Don't act like you know but don't want to say it."

"I'm fine here. It has nothing to do with this matter." Zhang Xu said to Ron.

At this moment, both Hermione and Harry were confused by Zhang Xu's words.

"You just let them go?" Ron asked in surprise.

"This is enough." Zhang Xu replied.

Ron said "Oh" and stopped talking.

Hermione looked at the two people playing riddles and didn't know what to say for a moment. This kind of situation didn't just happen to Ron. Many students from magical families - including Neville - had similar behaviors. Everyone Being tacit about something. But whenever Hermione asked them, they remained tight-lipped.

The grievances and grievances between Zhang Xu and those families could be seen by other families, but Zhang Xu didn't want to create a plot about retribution, so he asked Dumbledore to step in and control public opinion.

Zhang Xu glanced at Harry, who was also confused, and said to him: "If you want to know about this, you can ask Black. I think he should know about this."

Ignoring Hermione who was about to go crazy, Zhang Xu turned the topic to preventing the next attack.

At this time, Zhang Xu and his party had reached the edge of the Forbidden Forest. They suddenly saw a figure moving under the moonlight. Judging from the figure's size, they ruled out Hagrid at first.

Zhang Xu and the others took out their wands one after another, then spread out and surrounded them from several directions.

The figure stood in the shade of the tree where the moonlight could not reach, making Zhang Xu and the others unable to see each other's faces clearly.

The next moment, four magic spells were shot at the figure at the same time.
