Chapter 53: Disarming Spell
"Dumbledore, you're old!" Jorinster flapped his hands with his wand and looked relaxed.
In the mirror latitude, Canaan could see Jorinster's appearance clearly, with a towering nose, eyes as sharp as an eagle, and short gray hair.
"I never thought you'd be like this, I remember you weren't Voldemort's subordinate, who are you working for?" Dumbledore asked as he picked Hagrid into his arms.
"Of course I'm playing for myself. Okay, Dumbledore, it's been a lot of fun at Hogwarts, I should thank you, it's time for me to leave. ”
"By the way, what I'm doing won't harm the wizarding world, don't trouble me, otherwise, next time it won't be as easy as today. After she finished speaking, the space distorted, and the person disappeared.
Seeing Jorinster leave, Dumbledore shook his head and looked at Hagrid, "How do you feel?
"Oh, I'm fine, it's just a little bit out of strength and my stomach hurts a little bit. Hagrid shook off the dirt and continued, "When I came back, I fed a piece of meat to Tooth, and I was preparing Buckbeak's feed, and she appeared, and she used the Curse of Death, the evil spell, and I won't admit it, but luckily Tooth gave me a warning..."
"Okay, it's okay. Seeing Hagrid's somewhat excited look, Dumbledore whispered comfortingly.
Canaan watched the scene quietly from the mirror dimension, and according to Hagrid, Jorinster should have known that her actions at the bottom of the lake had been seen, so she had come to silence her. And the first one found Hagrid.
"Hagrid, do you feel like people are watching us around you?" Dumbledore asked with a sudden frown, looking around.
"Dumbledore, I don't think there's anyone else but Tooth watching us. Hagrid looked around and found nothing. Only Tooth and Tooth crouched in front of them, and the battle just now frightened it.
"Yes, there are teeth here, even the illusion spell can't be hidden, let's go, I'll take you to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries. Dumbledore nodded, and disappeared with Hagrid.
"Old fox, even if I grimace in front of you, you won't be able to spot me. Canaan muttered, then expertly opened the door to the space and returned to the laboratory.
......
At night, in the castle of the Hoffman family, Canaan was waiting for Teresa. When he returned in the afternoon, he told Lucy to inform Deresa that she would meet in the castle in the evening. He felt the need to talk to Teresa about today.
"Hey, little one, what's your name? At this moment, the voice of an old man came from the portrait on the wall.
"I saw you weren't there just now. Canaan smiled, and when he came in, the portrait was snow-white.
"It's always boring to be alone, and I have to go out and hang out. The old man in the portrait laughed.
"My name is Canaan Blaine, a Muggle-born wizard. ”
"Oh, you call me Hoffman, that's what everybody calls me. ”
"Grandpa Hoffman, can I call you that?" Canaan was also feeling a little bored, and he didn't mind chatting with the old man in the portrait.
"Of course, you're a polite child, I like polite kids, can you take out your wand? I want to see it. Hoffman said mildly.
"No problem. Canaan drew his wand, walked over to the portrait, and held it up.
"The ash wood, the core of unicorn hair, the production method is really a big change from before. Hoffman commented, leaning forward and keeping his eyes wide open, as if he would see more clearly.
"Is it really the wand that chooses the wizard? Canaan asked about the confusion in his heart, and he felt that it was more a wizard who chose his wand, just like going to a store to pick out clothes, and clothes could not choose their own owner.
"Indeed, if the wand identifies with its master, the spell will be more powerful. Hoffman thought for a moment, then continued, "Have you ever heard of the Elder Wand?"
"One of the Deathly Hallows, also known as the Elderberry Wand?" replied Canaan, remembering that the wand was now in Dumbledore's hand.
"That's it, legend has it that the Grim Reaper made of elderberry, it has a powerful magical power, and that wand will choose its own owner. Hoffman said slowly.
"Oh, well, but that's a special case, after all, many wands can't compare to the old wand. Canaan argued.
"You should be able to disarm the charm, right? In fact, when a wizard is hit by a disarming charm, not only will the wand fly out, but the wand will also fail for a short time, because the disarming charm will cut off the connection between the wizard's owner and the wand house, unless you can get the approval of the wand to resist this interference. Hoffman scratched his beard and explained to Canaan.
"I see. Canaan exclaimed, feeling that he had never discovered the true mystery of the Disarming Charm.
"What are you talking about?" said Derain, who came in through the doorway, looking tired and dusty.
"Grandpa Hoffman is teaching me about wands. ”
"Well, this old fellow is a little verbose, but his understanding of wands is unmatched. Come on, let's go to the library, be quiet there. Teresa didn't stop and walked straight to the second floor, with Canaan following closely behind.
"Why are you in such a hurry to let Lucy find me?" Derland found a clean chair and sat down in the library. The environment of the library room is very different from before, the old bookshelves have been replaced with new ones, and the room is also very neatly cleaned, and Lucy has spent a lot of time taking care of it in the past two days.
Canaan gave Teresa a general account of the day, including Dumbledore's suspicions and Hogwarts' suspicion that he was a dark wizard.
"It's normal for Dumbledore to be suspicious of you, after all, I didn't have a good relationship with you in Diagon Alley at the time, but I was surprised that the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor Jorinster used forbidden spells on campus, and that she dared to openly confront Dumbledore. When Teresa heard Canaan's words, his expression was very strange.
"Is there anything wrong with the professor?" asked Canaan, puzzled.
"We were attacked by the number three of the organization before, it was ordered by the number one in the organization, and you know that in the organization, we have two factions, and they are very eager to win me over. ”
"So what?"
"After that attack, I focused on tracking down the identity of Number One, after all, he is the most mysterious person in the organization, and we don't even know if he is a man or a woman. ”
"At that time, I followed the true identity of No. 3 and found out that he was indeed from a French pure-blood family. And I found out that he had a strong connection with a Hogwarts professor. Delan said slowly. It would take him a lot of energy to probe for these messages.
"You're saying that the female professor of Jorinster is really from your organization?" said Canaan, surprised, he was just trying to fool Dumbledore, but he didn't expect to catch the right one.
"Not only that, but according to what you said, I guess she's the number one in our organization! Teran looked at Canaan and said solemnly.
He continued, "There aren't many wizards who can compete with Dumbledore, and besides, I think she's looking for something at Hogwarts that our organization has been looking for. ”
