duel day at hogwarts

Chapter 144 Snape’s Illusion

Fudge looked at the corpses covered with white cloths lying aside with a very ugly look on his face.

Hogwarts is the only magic school in the UK and one of the best in Europe. However, such an extremely vicious case occurred near such a magic school. The victims were a group of children who were going to school, especially when these children's families were more or less still.

Some status and influence are definitely not a good thing for Fudge.

Even deep down in Fudge's heart, he very much hoped that this incident would happen within Hogwarts. In this way, the Ministry of Magic's responsibility would be reduced to a minimum, instead of the current situation where the Ministry of Magic takes the majority of the responsibility and Hogwarts.

Watts was secondary responsible, which was a huge stain on Fudge's future political career.

At this moment, Fudge saw Dumbledore and Snape coming from Hogwarts. He immediately put aside all the negative thoughts in his mind and quickly came to Dumbledore and said: "Dumbledore,

Now that you are here, what will the surviving student say about what happened this time?"

"Mr. Cotton is currently resting in the school hospital of Hogwarts. He was seriously injured. What happened this time was that Mr. Cotton and others were having a private gathering. As a result, they encountered a dark wizard lingering nearby, and the two sides fought.

The conflict escalated and resulted in heavy casualties. At present, those dark wizards have escaped. According to Mr. Cotton, the appearance and name of the other party have been basically determined, and the specific information is here."

Looking at the parchment handed over by Dumbledore, Fudge's eyes lit up. A vicious case was certainly a big problem, but if the murderer could be solved and captured in a short time, coupled with appropriate guidance of public opinion, it might not be possible to turn it into a crime.

A good thing, but at least my political career will not be greatly affected by this incident.

Looking at Fudge in front of him, even if Dumbledore didn't use Legilimency, he could roughly guess what Fudge was thinking, but Dumbledore didn't care about it. As long as Fudge didn't make mistakes in the general direction, he wouldn't go there.

What do you mind? Besides, he didn't say everything he just said.

When he was at Hogwarts just now, Dumbledore first informed Fudge about what was going on here, and told him the specific location. At the same time, he asked Barrett what happened this time. Barrett didn't hide much and told him

Dicky and Dicky told Dumbledore the fact that they worshiped Voldemort, and the dark wizards came because of this, and had a conflict during the gathering, which led to the killing.

Considering that it was related to the worship of Voldemort and the protection of Barrett, Dumbledore did not tell Fudge the truth of the matter. At least in terms of protecting students, Dumbledore was quite competent. Although some students

In fact, there is no need for protection.

Groups of Aurors under Fudge searched the mountains and forests. However, Marlowe's follow-up processing was a bit too clean and they did not find any clues worth noting. This was also Marlowe's plan. As long as they could not find anything at the scene,

If other clues are found, then Barrett's confession can only be used as the main one.

In this way, they will inevitably fall into the investigation route arranged by Marlowe according to Sean's order, and finally find the two dark wizards who were abandoned sons. When arresting them, they encountered fierce resistance from the two dark wizards.

The ending is either that the two dark wizards are killed or they commit suicide, thus ending the entire incident.

Dumbledore and Fudge discussed this case together. Fudge kept asking Dumbledore what he should do, and Dumbledore also conveyed his views to Fudge.

Snape looked down on political bureaucrats like Fudge. He left Dumbledore and inspected the scene. The fact that he was a Death Eater before might be a secret to most wizards, but to the arrogant people at the scene, Snape looked down on him.

It was absolutely nothing new for Rowe, so although Snape was now the Potions Professor at Hogwarts, most of the Aurors present ignored him.

Of course, with Snape's character, he didn't care much about talking to these Aurors.

When he walked up to the corpses, Snape didn't want to look at them. He liked potions, not forensics. Moreover, these corpses had been burned by flames and the like. Snape had no interest in seeking torture on his own.

I had no intention of continuing to read.

But just as Snape was about to leave, two Ministry of Magic staff were using magic to lift the body of a Hogwarts student. Unfortunately, one of them was too tired and accidentally failed to master the magic, causing the body to collapse.

When he was levitated, he spun around in a circle and lifted off the white cloth covering the body. This scene happened to be seen by Snape.

Originally, Snape was still mocking these Ministry of Magic officials for having the same brains as trolls, but when he removed his eyes, he happened to see the wound on the neck of the corpse, and his expression changed slightly, but Snape did not

Without stepping forward to check anything, with his eyelids slightly drooping, Snape returned to Dumbledore's side as if he hadn't seen anything.

At this time, Dumbledore had just finished talking to Fudge and was about to go back to deal with the aftermath.

After all, the four people who died were all students of Hogwarts. Even if they did not die in Hogwarts, the murderers were all dark wizards. However, Hogwarts still has a certain responsibility after all, and corresponding aftermath needs to be dealt with.

Dumbledore goes to deal with it.

Snape said nothing and followed Dumbledore back to Hogwarts.

Under the influence of Occlumency, Snape sincerely wanted to hide some thoughts that even Dumbledore could not easily see through. As usual, the two of them separated after returning to Hogwarts.

Snape returned to the dungeon of Hogwarts without any abnormality, but he did not return to his office immediately. Instead, he went directly to the warehouse behind the Potions classroom and opened a cabinet in the corner of the warehouse.

After some searching, I successfully found an old textbook from my school days.

After careful inspection, Snape found that there was still a layer of dust on the textbook, which did not look like it had been turned over. Then he swept away the dust on it, put it in his arms, and murmured to himself: "No.

It looks like someone is turning it over, so there is no other channel for my magic to flow out. How can I put it, was it my illusion just now?

Or maybe it's some other kind of black magic, and the corpse was burned, so it looks similar...

It may be that I'm overthinking it, but I can't keep this book here anymore. I put it in the cabinet when I packed my things last time. This time I have to find a new place to put it properly."

Please give me a threesome and good night everyone
