The Rise of Malfoy at Hogwarts

Vol 4 Chapter 156: Ron Reasoning

Old Batty had a decision in his heart.

At this time, he didn’t know that Barty’s memory was also modified by Schelling. Little Batty thought he had killed the **** father, and had relaxed his vigilance. In addition to the injuries he suffered from the previous battle, he was serving After taking the medicine, he fell asleep drowsy. Fortunately, the compound decoction he took was not the version made by Hermione in the second grade, but the version modified by Voldemort himself. The effect can last for eight hours, enough to keep him in a state of transformation until he wakes up.

So, even though this is Hogwarts with Dumbledore, Old Batty still can't feel at ease.

He didn't know how Batty got into Hogwarts, and he didn't know how Batty killed him accurately in the Forbidden Forest. He just had a feeling that he was still not out of danger.

So he arranged his clothes, took his wand, and left the school hospital secretly. Ms. Pomfrey was attracted by his movement and was about to see what was going on, but he sent a Forgotten Charm. In this way, no one except Dumbledore and Schelling knew about him at Hogwarts. According to his speculation, although Barty Jr. knew he was not dead, he was attacked in a state of insanity. There is a high probability that he will flee in the opposite direction of Hogwarts. It is impossible to guess that he is still there. Hogwarts.

Gryffindor common room.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione sat in a remote corner with solemn faces and whispered.

"Speaking like this," said Hermione, rubbing her forehead, "a mysterious figure attacked you, Malfoy, and Mr. Crouch in a dark environment, then let you go safely, and was finally repulsed by Malfoy. And Mr. Crouch is missing?"

"I'm not so sure," Harry said, shaking his head. "But Professor Dumbledore used a strange magic. He sprayed a large swath of golden powder with his wand in an attempt to infer the situation... "

"That's a tracking spell!" Hermione said sharply, "You can detect traces of magic that happened in that place within a certain period of time, including the footprints of wizards and magical animals, and magic once cast there. A spell is a trace. Revealed..."

"Yes! This is the magic. I remember that Professor Dumbledore chanted this spell at the time," Harry continued. "Professor Dumbledore inferred from the piece of golden powder, except for Malfoy and Crouch. There are also the footprints of an adult wizard, and there are traces of the Wind Whirling Curse and the Killing Curse...According to him, the Killing Curse obviously missed the target, and Malfoy successfully repelled the attacker."

"Life-killing spell?" Hermione and Ron exclaimed at the same time. They had only listened to Harry's simple description before, and they didn't know that it was actually involved in such a dangerous spell as the Killing Curse. Only then did they realize that the actual situation was probably more thrilling than the two of them had imagined.

"Harry," Hermione stared into Harry's eyes and said in a serious tone: "Why did you go to the Forbidden Forest alone with Malfoy? What did he tell you?"

Harry thought of the topic about Zhang Qiu, and he couldn't say it. Ron raised his eyebrows, if he realized something, but Hermione continued to look suspicious.

"Malfoy asked you to go there, and everything that follows happened in that place," Ron said lightly, "I think it's a bit suspicious, it's a coincidence."

Hermione raised her eyebrows and said coldly, "Ron, do you mean that Schelling has a problem?"

Ron’s pupils flashed a flash of unnoticeable pain and resentment—

Hermione is still the same. She may be a smart and knowledgeable little witch, but ah, she will never be a terrible liar. Ron just hinted lightly, and Hermione couldn't help directly exposing her inner thoughts—

Hermione, did you know that just now, you accidentally said the name "Schelling" instead of calling him "Malfoy" like us.

Harry, the little straight man, was completely unaware of the rich inner drama of his two friends, and said to himself: "What Ron said is not unreasonable. Malfoy suddenly called me to such a remote and uninhabited corner. I thought there was an important private topic, but he asked me to talk about it—" His face flushed, and he quickly said the following words like a bullet, "They were all unimportant and irrelevant topics. , As if... he had anticipated what would happen there..."

"Aha! Will it be like this," Ron said excitedly, as if he had just grabbed an important inspiration. "All of this was directed and performed by Malfoy. In fact, he was the one who attacked Harry and Crouch! "

"He was right next to Harry at the time. How would he attack himself?" Hermione said coldly.

"Malfoy knows so much black magic, what's so amazing about knowing a magic that can divide himself in two?" Ron retorted unwillingly.

"Then you said, what is his purpose for doing this?" Hermione said grimly, "Just to scare Harry?"

The corners of Ron's mouth raised slightly, he tilted his head forward, brought himself closer to Harry and Hermione, and then said in a low voice: "In order to create witnesses-Harry is his witness. And Crow Mr. Qi is his goal."

He lowered his voice again, and there was a hint of sorrow in his tone, "He first created a scene where someone wanted to kill Crouch, and Harry was the witness, and then he figured out a way to drive Harry away. He only attacked Crouch after Lee left the scene."

Harry nodded constantly. Ron's reasoning was all right and sensible, otherwise he really couldn't explain why Xie Lin asked himself to go to the Forbidden Forest to talk about Zhang Qiu's topics.

Hermione was not convinced, she wanted to refute, but couldn't find any flaws in Ron's reasoning. After a long time, she said: "If something like this happened, even if Schelling did not go to Professor Dumbledore, do you think Professor Dumbledore would not go to him? If Schelling really killed Mr. Crouch..."

Hermione couldn't help but shudder at her own conjecture. She was still an innocent little witch who had never seen death. She couldn't accept Schelling's conjecture of killing people, even if it was just a conjecture.

She went on to say: "If that were the case, do you think Professor Dumbledore would not be able to see it? I don't believe that Schelling, a fourth-grade student, can kill an adult wizard without a wand, and then be able to do nothing. I have concealed it from the most powerful wizard in this century. If even Dumbledore thinks he is fine..."

(Note: Hermione said that she didn’t use a magic wand because the magic wand can be used to check the magic that has been cast)

"I agree with what you said. If Malfoy kills someone, it is really unlikely that Professor Dumbledore can be concealed, but-" Ron's eyes flashed with a shrewd light, and he said coldly, "Malfoy this Guy, he is more cunning than his Death Eater father and brother Sha Diao...He is not a Death Eater, and killing indiscriminately is by no means his style. It should be said that for a utilitarian like him, all things that hurt others and do not benefit themselves. It will never be his style..."

"Assault Crouch and kill Crouch, that's something Death Eaters would do..." Ron squinted slightly, a confident look faintly flashing between the gaps in his eyelids, "What is Crouch? Man, he is the head of the Ministry of Magic, a high-ranking authority, and Sirius also said that he once ran for Minister of Magic, which shows that he also has a strong prestige and a circle of supporters in the Ministry."

"If I were Malfoy, killing him would undoubtedly be the stupidest decision... Only by controlling him and letting him work for me can we maximize the benefits of the whole thing..."

Hermione's face turned pale, and she looked at Ron's familiar face incredulously. She couldn't believe that these words came from Ron, and suddenly felt that Ron had become a little strange.

Harry didn't think so much, he thought for a while, frowned, and said, "You mean the Imperius Curse that Professor Moody said? Malfoy is just a fourth-grade student like us, he has the ability Do you use this magic? Even if he really has this ability, Crouch is no ordinary person. He works in the Ministry of Magic and often meets with many powerful wizards. When he reappears, Malfoy’s spell Is it possible not to be seen through by others?"

"The Imperius Curse is only one of the possibilities. There are millions of magic in this world, and there are always some that even Dumbledore has never touched..." Ron said quickly.

"Wait a minute," when Ron was about to go on to describe the various unpopular dark magic he had heard from his father and other relatives and elders, Hermione was interrupted forcefully.

Hermione took a deep breath, and her voice began to bring chills, "Okay, you two, both of you are so quick to make a conclusion, as if Schelling is really the kind of villain you call it. … Didn’t you think about it, it’s your preconceived prejudice against him, which made you unable to make objective and accurate judgments about things?"

Hearing the dissatisfaction in Hermione's tone, Ron's body seemed to tremble imperceptibly. He knew he had touched Hermione's bottom line. He dared not look at Hermione any more, but looked away, looked at the ground, and said softly, "These are just inferences. Hermione, you are too serious."

Hermione snorted coldly, and UU reading www.uukanshu.com ended the conversation. The three of them returned to their dormitory rooms, and they were quite unhappy.

The next day was Tuesday, and just after dawn, Harry, Ron, and Hermione slipped out of the dormitory early in the morning and hurried to the owl shed to send a letter to Sirius. Now they were standing there looking at the foggy field. All three of them had puffy eyelids and pale faces, because they discussed matters for Mr. Crouch late last night.

There they ran into the Wesley twins who were arguing. The Wesley twins seem to be arguing about whether to send a letter, and sending this letter seems likely to involve extortion.

Ron's face looked very pale, and during the cold war between him and Harry, he almost mingled with the Wesley twins. He knew very well that the twins were thinking about making money this semester because they wanted to open a joke shop. Originally during the summer vacation, when the twins proposed this idea, the whole family thought they were saying this just to make their mother angry, but they didn't expect them to be serious.

Opening a store requires funds, and Mr. Wesley obviously cannot help them, so they have a sense of urgency for money. Ron was worried that they would take risks and do illegal things in order to make money.
