Chapter 199: Dead Harry
Death is like the wind,
Always with me.
William had already felt the meaning of this sentence deeply.
Is death far away?
Not far away.
At least in this Hogwarts, not only is it not far away, but it is still the most basic routine operation.
William has been in this school for five, five years...... Almost every year there are dead people.
The way of death is different, but it is exciting and turbulent enough...... That's enough to write a copy of Detective at Hogwarts.
It's not easy for students to grow up in this environment.
Standing in the principal's office room, William, who was distracted, was thinking about this.
His professional advice is:
The sooner you go, the longer you live.
If it really doesn't work, change the principal and change the teacher...... William is not talented, and is willing to take over Dumbledore's work and return Hogwarts to a normal learning environment.
For a moment, not only him, but other wizards also fell into silence and distraction.
Silent...... It's Hogwarts tonight.
It's not that things are so tricky and complicated that people have no clue and can only be silent.
Contrary...... The events are simple and straightforward, without a bit of detour.
- It was just an accident.
Krum and Ron meet in a narrow way to compete for the trophy...... In the end, the two of them fought a lot, and Ron was defeated by Krum and was killed by him.
It's as simple as that.
The murder was done by Avada, which only made the nature of the matter worse.
Since it was an accident, and Krum did kill someone, he should be held legally responsible.
The Ministry of Magic doesn't have a Minor Scum Protection Act.
Besides...... Krum was also not a minor, he was already seventeen years old.
Adults are responsible for their actions.
Secretary Fudge figured this out and said:
"The priority is to detain Krum's parents and hunt him down, he should still be hiding in the maze......"
Bang bang bang.
There was a knock on the wooden door.
"Come in." Dumbledore whispered.
Professor McGonagall walked in slowly, her face horribly pale and bloodless.
Everyone looked at her, and Dumbledore, who had been silent, raised his head and frowned:
"Minerva, what happened, didn't you take the students back to the common room?"
Subtext...... Naturally, they looked at Harry and didn't let him run around or be taken away.
After all, Voldemort is still thinking about resurrection, and there is also a little Barty Crouch in secret, ready to move.
Professor McGonagall's lips trembled, and she tried to say something, but she couldn't cry, so she covered her mouth with her hands.
After a long time, she barely choked up:
"Headmaster...... Harry...... He ......"
"What's wrong with him?" Fudge asked anxiously.
Could it be that Barty Jr. or Voldemort took advantage of the chaos to do something to Harry and secretly took him away?
This thought...... An instant came to William's mind.
If Voldemort had any conspiracy, tonight was the last chance.
But Professor McGonagall's next words were earth-shattering.
Her eyes were red, and her voice was hoarse, "Dead!" ”
The audience was in an uproar, and everyone looked at Professor McGonagall in amazement.
"Who's dead again?" Fudge swallowed. "Who!"
"Harry!"
The cup in Fudge's hand landed on his feet, and the hot water splashed on the floor, burning his legs.
Dumbledore tried his best to remain calm, but his clenched fists showed that his mood was not so calm.
He asked, "How did you die?" ”
As if to resist the coolness of the night, McGonagall covered her arms with her hands, bowed her head and whispered:
"I was taking the students back to the common room when Harry suddenly yelled and he said...... Know where Krum is hiding. ”
"He took out his invisibility cloak, put it on, and then left the group, and disappeared nowhere."
"I'm in a hurry, so I'm going out with the prefect to look for it. I searched and found Myrtle's bathroom on the second floor, and saw the invisibility cloak thrown at the door.
When he went in again, he saw Harry lying on the ground, already ...... He's dead. There is also a ...... of Krum next door"
"Krum, did you catch him?" Fudge shouted.
Professor McGonagall shook her head.
"He ran away?"
He ...... He was dead, too, and his body lay beside Harry. ”
For a moment, the entire office was as quiet as death.
Overnight, three students died in a row...... This news made everyone feel like they were in a nightmare.
"It must have been Harry who found Krum's hiding place...... "Fudge sat down in his chair in despair.
"Gee, if only we caught Krum." He said bitterly.
"It wasn't us who found Krum, it was Harry. Weasley is said to be his best friend, and he must have gone crazy with grief.
He didn't know how to find Krum's location, so he went after him. ”
Fudge pounded the table and roared:
"Krum doesn't have a wand, but he's also an adult wizard, and Harry was careless, and they both died together!"
"Yes, Ron is Harry's best friend." Professor McGonagall wiped her tears with a handkerchief.
"When it comes to smartness, the two of them are never on the list.
I've been very fierce with them all the time, and I'm ...... now What a regret...... Harry was always so brave.
This stupid boy ......"
William lowered his head, frowned slightly, and pondered.
Judging from the results shown so far, it is indeed as Fudge said:
Krum kills Ron, and Harry is counter-killed during his pursuit.
The chain of evidence is complete, and every link can be inferred.
"Look! What's going on over there in the Black Lagoon?! Ludo, who had been silent, suddenly shouted.
William turned his head to look, his pupils shrinking suddenly.
Durmstrang's wrecked ship was on fire, the bottom of the ship seemed to be leaking, and the huge hull began to shake violently.
The water of the Black Lake was surging in an instant, and the black ship sank at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, and soon half of the hull was submerged.
Eventually, it turned into a brilliant splash and completely vanished.
Fudge licked his lips and stumbled, "Durmstrang student...... Have you already returned to the ship? ”
"I look like I've gone back......"
“……”
Fudge slumped in his chair, covered his face, and suddenly burst into uncontrollable tears.
"It's over...... I'm the position of the minister...... Can't keep it...... So many people died.
And Durmstrang's students......"
Durmstrang's students were wiped out and died at Hogwarts...... This was undoubtedly a major event that shocked the wizarding world.
It may even affect relations between the UK and the Nordic countries.
A Minister Fudge will definitely not be able to take responsibility, and he will definitely take the blame and resign and apologize to everyone.
So, the loss of control is understandable.
For a while, everyone rushed to the Black Lagoon to see if they could rescue a few, only Dumbledore and William remained.
For a while, neither of them spoke, still reminiscing about this bizarre night.
Professor Snape pushed the door open and walked in, and when he saw William, his pupils narrowed significantly.
He didn't expect William to be here.
"It's okay, William is credible, I trust him as much as I trust you." Dumbledore spoke.
Snape snorted, but didn't speak.
Dumbledore glanced at his watch and said softly, "Go, go see him, you should go." ”
William looked up, wondering who to see.
Snape whispered, "But...... Are you sure the Dark Lord won't kill me? ”
"I'm already late, two hours late from the time he requested......"
"No, it won't." Dumbledore said flatly. "I know Tom...... He won't kill you, as long as you tell him ......"
Professor Dumbledore paused, stared at Snape with sharp blue eyes, and said:
"You went back at my command...... He won't kill you.
He will trust you even more! ”
