Chapter 70: The Unchanging Ending (Part 2)
Professor Tywin was going to tell Dumblede something, and he was very insistent.
This gesture surprised William a little.
Dumbledore glanced at the Quidditch match that had already begun, and motioned, "Since Professor Tywin is in such a hurry, come to my office to negotiate." ”
William breathed a sigh of relief, if Tywin went to Dumbledore's office, he should not have a chance to commit the crime for the time being.
However, William had some doubts.
Listening to Dumbledore, he was going to the Ravenclaw Tower, so how did Tywin commit the crime under the headmaster's nose?
The three of them returned to the third floor in the same way, and when they reached the door, William did not enter.
"Professor Dumbledore, I'll wait until you're done."
Dumbledore nodded, and walked in with Tywin.
William stood at the window and continued to watch the game.
He had watched the game yesterday, but he still watched it with relish.
I don't know how long it took, but the monster suddenly came to life and jumped aside, and the wall behind it cracked in half.
Tywin stepped out of it, smiling, glancing thoughtfully at William, and turned to walk towards the first floor, as if to watch the game.
After a few moments, Dumbledore walked out of it with a grim face, and he said, "William, as you can see, Professor Tywin didn't steal the knocker or attack ......"
No sooner had he finished than there was a sound of messy footsteps, and Professor Snape rushed up the stairs with his wand in hand.
He was covered in blood.
"Headmaster," Snape said hurriedly, "something happened, and a student died. ”
William gasped sharply, his ring clenching on his index finger, his finger turning white.
"Who died?!"
Snape was not used to a student talking to him like that, but replied, "Ravenclaw's prefect, Robert Hilliard." ”
William froze for a few moments, his mind starting to mess up.
Professor Tywin had just come out of Dumbledore's office, he didn't have time to commit the crime, but Robert was still dead?
Who did this to you? Could it be that William guessed wrong?
William had been to the Ravenclaw common room countless times, but never had he sprinted so hard as he did now.
Running not far from the Ravenclaw wooden door, William felt himself moving forward in a trance.
Robert was lying on the ground like that, his left eye socket was empty, the blood had dried up, and there was no other sign of violence, and a frightened expression appeared on his face, as if he had seen some terrible sight before he died.
Not far from Robert, a large hole appeared in the wooden door, and the eagle-shaped knocker disappeared again.
William knew he still had a ring on his hand.
Dumbledore crouched on the ground, examining Robert's wounds.
"It's Arvada, Headmaster." Snape wiped the blood from his face.
"Yes," Dumbledore's serious voice came, turning confused, "but how could it ......"
Dumbledore stared at Robert's empty eyes and flipped his body over.
The missing left eye hangs intact above the wooden door, obscured by Robert's body.
A large pool of black blood, twisted around the eyes, like messy graffiti, but if you look closely, it forms a long outline, pointing to the earth!
Dumbledore's voice rang out, as if explaining to William.
"The Eye of Horus, this symbol is very rare these days, but it has appeared many times throughout history, and it is the most coveted and mysterious symbol of ancient warlocks."
Professor Snape was similarly puzzled and asked, "So what does it mean that the other party left this mark?" ”
"In the traditional sense, Severus, which is for the resurrection."
"Resurrection...... What the? William asked.
Dumbledore motioned for Snape to transfer Robert's body, and he straightened up and said, "For thousands of years, the 'Eye of Horus' has been given a sense of resurrection.
Briefly, it is a symbol of the resurrection of a great man - an ancient warlock, a pharaoh, an emperor, and of course - Lord Voldemort. ”
Snape's hand holding his wand trembled, his face hidden in the shadows, unable to see.
"Alright, Severus, things don't have to be that bad." Dumbledore said, "Transfer this child's body to the school hospital, where you can wait for me." ”
"But ......"
"What happened to you, tell me later, I have other things. Let's go, William. ”
Dumbledore took William's shoulders and led him downstairs.
"Where are we going, Professor?"
William could still see the Quidditch arena, where fierce matches were going on, but the noise felt like a world away.
"Let's take a look at Professor Tywin, you said Robert would be killed, this has already happened, Professor Tywin is probably lucky......"
"But I don't understand ......"
"Why can Robert be killed when Tywin is in my office, right?" Dumbledore seemed to be able to see what William was thinking.
William nodded and said, "Also, Professor Tywin just went to the first floor, how could he ......"
Dumbledore whispered in a calm, soft voice, "Son, I think that's why you've been summoned here. ”
"Summoned?" William rubbed the ring, at a loss.
Dumbledore stopped talking, but strode ahead.
The two quickly arrived at Defense Against the Dark Arts office.
Dumbledore took out his wand and clicked on the lock, and the door exploded, collapsing half of the wall.
William's eyelids twitched, and he felt that Dumbledore could be a little gentler and less violent.
Dumbledore walked through the smoke, first looking around, then heading straight for the bathroom.
Unlike Tywin yesterday, he hasn't cooled down yet, but it's time to die.
Tywin's chest rose and fell sharply, blood seeping from the corners of his mouth, and he couldn't say a word.
But his elbows were straight, his fingers gripped the edge of the toilet, and he seemed to be trying to get up.
Tywin's pupils began to widen, and his vision blurred, but for some reason, he recognized Dumbledore.
He wanted to speak, but he couldn't say a word, but the blood gushed out from the corners of his mouth more and more.
Dumbledore reached out and gently pressed his chest, where the tentacles were, the bones shattered, and the robes were warm from blood.
Dumbledore bent down and shook his head slightly.
"We're late, William."
William was silent, his brow furrowed, things were beyond his imagination.
"That means, Quidditch needs to be over." Dumbledore raised his wand and summoned a silver phoenix.
"The finals are suspended, and everyone is under the protection of the professor and goes back to their respective common rooms."
The big silver creature circled around William twice, and he felt warm, and then the phoenix smashed through the glass and flew towards the Quidditch arena.
"Let's go, go to my office, we need to have a good talk."
Dumbledore turned away, not even looking at Professor Tywin's body.
