From Kamal Taj to Hogwarts
Chapter 28 Interrogation
After hearing what Bachelor Angulo said, the faces of the three professors became solemn.
"Mr. Strange, according to what you said, you stayed with Ms. Gray in the afternoon, right?" Vice Principal Mellors asked seriously.
Xiwen didn't react for a moment. He wasn't sure why other people called Helena Ms. Gray.
At this time, Helena took the lead and said next to her: "Stephen was in the library with me yesterday afternoon."
Xiwen suddenly realized that she might have acquiesced in the title Ms. Gray because she didn't want others to know that she was the daughter of Ravenclaw.
"So why did you appear in the entrance courtyard again at night?" Professor Mellors asked.
'Because I'm curious about what Professor Luo Lei is doing...' Xiwen curled his lips secretly. But he couldn't say it out loud. He couldn't sense Professor Luo Lei's position from three floors away and ran downstairs to observe him.
Bar……
'Wait a minute, what is Professor Lorre looking for? It couldn't be Professor Lorre.'
"Mr. Strange!" Seeing Xiwen's delay in answering, Principal Dippet knocked on the table.
"Oh, okay principal." Xiwen also realized that he should answer the question now, and answered a little perfunctorily. "You still have to come out for some air!"
Obviously, Xiwen's answer dissatisfied the professors, and Principal Dippet even frowned.
"I want to know more specifically why Mr. Strange came to Hogwarts, and why he is a ghost but has the ability to cast spells." The principal asked.
Seeing this, Xiwen had no choice but to recount the speech he had prepared.
"I am a traveler from the East, and my hobby is traveling around the world. But the world is so big, and people are so small. It is difficult to see a corner of the world in detail in a lifetime, so I can give up the restraints of the body and become a ghost, so that I can use my endless imagination.
Time travels through the present and future of the world. This is also the obsession that allows me to become a ghost."
"As for the ability to cast spells, because the spells in the East are systematically different from those here, it is not easy to explain. To put it simply, we have spiritual spells to cultivate the soul and spirit. After I cast the spell and gave up the body, I retained this ability.
In my soul, this is the reason why I can cast spells."
Dumbledore listened with interest, and applauded after hearing it, saying: "Great ideals, Mr. Strange. People are small, but ideals are infinite. Your story is very interesting."
"Ahem!" Principal Dippet coughed with a stiff face, interrupting Dumbledore's speech, and then asked him and Professor Mellors. "Do you think it is feasible to let the ghost retain the ability to cast spells?"
Professor Mellors said: "I don't think it's realistic. It goes against the definition of a ghost."
Dumbledore retorted with a smile: "There is no need to stick to the word ghost. Maybe Mr. Strange is more inclined to an elf than a ghost after casting a spell to give up his body? Just like Peeves."
Xiwen silently praised Dumbledore, "As expected of Professor Dumbledore, I never thought of such a reason myself."
Principal Dippet nodded and continued: "Despite this, Mr. Strange's suspicion has not been eliminated."
Seemingly seeing that Xiwen's expression was not very good, Professor Mellors explained: "Please forgive me, Mr. Strange, because the damaged things in our castle are difficult for normal people to discover. From then on,
Theoretically, only ghosts that can travel through walls have the slightest chance of being able to sense their presence at close range."
"So, we want to know, are you unable to touch physical objects like other ghosts, or can you use magic to affect reality?" she asked.
"He can affect reality." Bloody Barro suddenly interjected. "I saw him pick up the books in the library with my own eyes."
"Are you spying on us, Barrow?" Helena questioned coldly.
"I just want to make sure you're safe," Barrow said.
Xiwen actually doesn't quite understand where Barrow's strong hostility comes from. He doesn't look like a warm-hearted person at all. Could it be that... he has thoughts about Helena?
Xiwen felt that he had seen the truth.
He didn't have a good impression of Barrow in the first place, but now he looked at Barrow with a bit of hostility.
"Peeping? You are very leisurely, Mr. Barrow." He couldn't help but choked Barrow.
"You...!" Barrow said sharply, but was interrupted by the principal.
Principal Dippet said: "Two gentlemen, I think we should talk about business first."
"Is what Sir Barrow said true?" He looked at Sivan.
Xiwen nodded simply. If he was lying now, it would be even harder to explain when he touched the real thing in the future.
"And I also saw him wandering around the castle, as if he was looking for something." Barrow stabbed him hard again.
"So what are you looking for, Mr. Strange?"
"Of course I'm looking for a cat!" Xiwen rolled his eyes secretly. The key point was that he couldn't say it out loud. It would be ruined if people knew that he and the heir of the Rozier family were the same person.
So he said: "I read about the Hogwarts Chamber of Secrets in a book. As a traveler, of course I want to see it."
Principal Dippet's eyebrows furrowed even more.
"Mr. Strange, I have to say that your suspicion is very strong, and we cannot remain indifferent to this." He said.
Xiwen nodded helplessly, expressing his understanding.
'After all, I used this castle to hide my identity as a soul. Now that I am misunderstood by the owner of the castle, let's just consider it an even deal.' Xiwen thought to himself.
Principal Dippet called Vice Principal Mellors and Professor Dumbledore together, and the three of them had a somewhat heated discussion. It seemed that Dumbledore did not agree with the principal's plan.
Xiwen sat bored, feeling that he was indeed a bit unlucky, as if he had walked into someone else's trap.
Helena looked at him worriedly and asked, "Aren't you worried that you will be treated as a murderer?"
Xiwen looked at Helena in surprise: "With so much unfavorable evidence pointing to me, do you still believe me?"
Helena looked at his face and nodded heavily: "I believe you!"
Xiwen felt that he had been touched. It would be difficult for anyone to be so trusted by someone he had only known for four days and not dare to move.
But he still said stubbornly: "Barrow is actually right. You are indeed too gullible."
"But I don't regret it..." Helena murmured softly.
…
"Okay." Principal Dippet knocked on the table. It seems that the three professors have finally reached a unified opinion. "Now let's talk about how to deal with the ghost Stephen Strange."
