harry potter book of crimes

As a professor, as a principal, how could you leave students in trouble in the corridor and ignore them? Even if there is an emergency right now... no, it is precisely because of the emergency that we cannot leave the students like this.

Lying on the ground, isn't it?

Snape's guess was correct. The little wizards who had been hit by the binding spell had been collectively moved to a classroom not far away by McGonagall. Moreover, she was still trying her best to find out the reason for them.

What force controlled these students? Why was she unaware of such a large-scale change on the Change?

It is obvious that Minerva McGonagall is a well-known witch in the modern magic world, and her strength is not limited to the magical discipline of Transfiguration.

"Spirit...oh no, is it soul magic?"

At this moment, in a certain classroom, the students who had been lying in a mess on the aisle had been placed neatly on the carpeted floor by Mag. And Mag himself was squatting among them at the moment.

Next to a student, some detection magic was being used to check.

Moreover, she had obviously already reached a conclusion similar to Snape's based on the results of some examinations.

However, this conclusion is actually not good news for them.

"What a terrible development!"

Needless to say, although Mag also has a little understanding of ancient soul magic, it is limited to this. This unique and mysterious magic has only been recorded sparsely in a few unearthed ancient books, and it is only superficial.

The kind that is more descriptive than theoretical analysis.

With only some superficial and incomplete descriptions known, it is obviously impossible to solve the curse for the students. It is even said that doing it randomly will not necessarily have the opposite effect.

For a moment, Mag couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

"Especially," she took back her wand, looked at the students in front of her with worry, and whispered to herself, "it should have happened when I tried to contact Maka, and everyone was on a ship, why did I

Do you feel nothing at all?"

Maybe it was because she wanted to stay here to protect the students, or maybe because she hoped to figure out the whole story. Although McGonagall knew that Snape and the others were still waiting on the deck, she still chose to stay in this classroom.

.

To be honest, even if she goes back now, it doesn't seem to be of much use, right?

And just a moment later, there was a series of sounds of opening and closing doors in the corridor outside, as if someone was checking every room in this corridor one by one.

"...Minerva? Are you nearby? And girls and boys, if there are any classmates who are still awake, please respond immediately..."

Flitwick's highly recognizable voice came, which interrupted McGonagall's thoughts and went over to open the classroom door.

"Filius, this way!"

"Oh! Minerva, I finally found you——"

The Change is undoubtedly very big. Except for the main road in the middle, it branches more and more towards the back, and there are even several floors up and down. In addition, for the sake of safety, Mag did not choose that main channel.

It's even harder to find.

Seeing her come out on her own initiative, Flitwick breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sorry," McGonagall said apologetically, "I found a lot of students who were affected by some kind of magic, and I can't leave for a while, so..."

"It's okay, it's okay!" Flitwick waved his hand quickly and hurried over and said, "It's just... you went to contact Maka before, did you get in touch with him?"

As Snape said, in the final analysis, the most important thing at the moment is this matter. Unfortunately, he soon saw McGonagall shaking her head with a sad look on her face.

"Really?" Although she hadn't said it directly, Flitwick already understood when he saw her like that, "Yes, I also saw the situation of the children... We sent some students to the deck.

.Oh, you did bring all those students in the aisle here."

When he went to Mag's side and glanced at the classroom behind the latter, he immediately saw the little wizards lying on the floor. Looking at their bodies lying motionless on the ground, Fuli felt

Wei couldn't help feeling sad.

"Poor children... I hope the mental shock contained in the scream did not have an irreparable impact on them!"

However, it was Flitwick's words that immediately stunned Professor McGonagall on the side.

"Screaming sound?" She couldn't help but frowning and said, "Wait, what screaming sound?"

"Minerva, didn't you hear?"

McGonagall's rhetorical question confused Flitwick.

"Shouldn't it be? That sound... must have been heard by everyone on the Change - well, although it shouldn't be an actual 'sound', but some kind of magical effect on the mind... Are you really

Didn't you 'hear' it?"

If everyone hears it, although it is scary, it is not beyond the scope of everyone's understanding - some people have enough willpower not to be affected by fainting, and some people have insufficient willpower and are controlled. This is also a clear situation. But when there is one person who can't connect with that "

If the sound itself is not "heard", then it will inevitably be mixed with some unknown things.

In the world of magic, all unknowns will cause unpredictable obstacles to understanding and conclusions. If you still blindly follow your own limited knowledge, big problems will often occur.

After all, Flitwick is a knowledgeable wizard. When faced with the unknown, he will definitely not make stupid mistakes.

But...what exactly went wrong?

"Perhaps 'some people' have other plans for me?" Mag couldn't help but say this after hesitating for a few seconds.

Obviously, the 'some people' in her mouth refer to the enemy who is hiding in the dark and causing all the troubles in front of her. Although she doesn't know who the other party is and whether it is Haierbo, Mag has obviously sniffed out the enemy.

It smells like some kind of conspiracy and calculation.

"Filius, I think I can't stay around the students anymore... If the other party is really planning something against me, they must not be involved again." McGonagall said seriously to Flitwick.

He said, "Let's find a way to bring them to the deck! I... in short, leave me alone to think of a way."

Different from others, in the current situation, it is very likely to represent danger. Knowing this, Magton immediately told him a decisive sentence, and then headed towards the stern of the ship without looking back.

He walked in the same direction, and soon turned a corner and left Flitwick's sight.

"This... ugh!"

Flitwick was also full of doubts at this time and sighed heavily.
