However, how reluctant everyone was in their hearts, but after the short vacation, the dull and boring study life began again. Unlike before, there was a bearded old man missing from the castle, replaced by a hunchbacked man with fierce eyes.

It doesn't matter if this man named Carlo was a Death Eater or not, at least one thing is for sure, this guy is fierce, super fierce! Unlike Snape's cold aura and caustic speech, Mr. Carlo's fierceness is superficial, and he really looks at the students who try to say hello or ask him questions...... Especially Muggle-born students.

"I am thrilled to have the opportunity to return to this historic castle, and I will do my best to preserve our best magical traditions and values."

These were the first words he said at the dinner party on his first day in office.

When Sorf and Luna said this in Brandy's hospital room, Ron almost immediately understood what the guy meant.

"He's preaching the theory of blood." Ron angrily patted the hospital bed under him, although his head was not seriously injured, but he had been lying in the ward yelling and having a headache, considering that the three of them had fought against a basilisk that had not appeared for hundreds of years, the healers were very nervous about his unknown situation, so Ron, who could have been discharged from the hospital on the same day, successfully relied on his cheekiness to get to the present.

Seeing Brandi and Harry's bewildered eyes, he added. This is the opinion of the mysterious man in order to win people's hearts, and he believes that Muggle-born people are not qualified to learn magic, but are squeezing the living space of pure-blood wizards. The Ministry of Magic should use tougher measures to weed out Muggles who are not worthy of learning magic......"

Harry's expression turned angry.

"So, Malfoy's father wanted to change the teaching philosophy of Hogwarts through Caro's ascension?"

"I don't think that's likely, Harry." Brandi waved his hand, "Mr. Malfoy is not stupid, he should know that this Carlo alone will not be able to establish himself at Hogwarts for a long time, not to mention that Lockhart's actions will soon be removed once they are carried out...... Even if we don't do anything, how long do you think this guy with eyes scarier than a basilisk will be able to stay in the headmaster position? I dare say that Carlo's current behavior is just his instinctive discrimination against Muggles, and Mr. Malfoy must have had some other purpose in approaching him. ”

But what could that be the purpose?

"Luna, did the new principal do anything on his first day on the job?" Brandi asked.

"Wow?"

"Flying around the castle like a harassing fly, Brandy." Luna hugged the little one from behind, ignoring Salph's surprised protest and resting her chin on her shoulder, narrowing her eyes in comfort. He seems to be interested in monitoring students for peeking at "Singing and Singing" in class, lying on the ground to study the dark, damp floor tiles and cracks in the walls of the castle, and especially likes the ...... in the women's restroom I think he may have been possessed by a lustful Pippi shrimp spirit. ”

There were so many things in her words that needed to be singled out and complained about that the attention of the four people present was directed to other indescribable directions.

Ron: "Women's restroom! This new headmaster is a pervert. ”

Harry: "Study the floor tiles and wall cracks in the women's bathroom...... Luna, you shouldn't be talking about the women's restroom on the third floor that has fallen into disrepair. ”

Salph: "Pipi Shrimp Essence, is it a magical creature that I haven't seen before?" ”

Brandi: "...... No, Luna, I don't think anyone would be bored enough to peek at "Singing Bad" in class. ”

Luna ignored the words of the other three, and she let go of Salph, reached out to hold Brandy's face, and looked directly at him, her moon-like gaze without a trace of impurity.

…… Well, I was wrong, Singing Against Tune is my favorite magazine to read, not one of them.

It wasn't until Brandi sincerely repented of his lies that Luna let go of her hand as if nothing had happened, and pulled the pillow next to her into her arms.

Of course, they quickly got to the point. There is no doubt that Carlo is avoiding the crowd and sneaking around alone to find the location of the secret room. But what else could there be in the chamber besides the dead basilisk?

"He's looking for a diary...... Blondie! Harry spoke the answer in Brandi's mind. Yes, it must have been, Professor McGonagall told Mr. Malfoy that the journal was destroyed, but he must have known that the journal could not have been destroyed so easily. He wanted Carlo to go to the Chamber of Secrets and get it back, at least to see its wreckage...... Oh my God, my God! ”

Not knowing what was in his mind, he sat up excitedly from the hospital bed next door.

"That diary, maybe it's Mr. Malfoy's!"

"How is this possible, the diary was clearly ...... from my box" said Brandi's face suddenly changed, the diary was originally placed with the second-hand spell book. But I haven't touched that book since I bought it all my vacation, but it's Mr. Malfoy! He was the one who threw the spell book into her cauldron as Ginny's textbook!

What if at that time, the diary was already hidden in the book?

Thinking of the strange conversation between Snape and Lady Narcissa: "Your husband has done a big stupid thing this time......

Snape knew early on what Mr. Malfoy wanted to do? Could it be ......

As if as he had thought, Harry and Ron had a look of clarity on their faces.

"Looks like so, that's right." Brandi exhaled and lowered her voice excitedly. "It was all planned, Mr. Malfoy had intended to give Ginny the journal and Riddle to take Ginny's spirit, but what he didn't expect was my old book. Later, Snape found out that the secret room had not been opened for a long time, so he sneaked into our dormitory, stole the diary, and planned to do it himself, maybe he had access to the tower, and then the night before he ran into Padma, who was rushing to the school hospital, and had to use the Oblivion Charm to erase her memory! That's how he used that spell on me before! Snape might be Riddle's faithful servant! ”

No one questioned his reasoning, and Snape's status as a former Death Eater gave them the best reason. Harry and Ron clenched their fists tightly, their palms drenched with sweat, their hearts pounding wildly from the inference.

Silence returned to the room, except for Luna, who was softly humming the tune in that singing tone that never seemed to change.

"Extraordinary wisdom is the most precious treasure of mankind."

Sharf was encircled in her arms, looking at her inexplicably.

…… Two days later, Brandi and the three of them were finally confirmed by St. Mungo's famous doctors to be in good health, so the three of them left the ward where they could play and reluctantly returned to their old lives. They saw the guy named Carlo in a Defence Against the Dark Arts class that surprised them.

Ever since Lockhart had been away from school for a while, Carlo had decided to take the Defence Against the Dark Arts course for the time being. Truth be told, it was only fitting that a former Death Eater could teach Defence Against the Dark Arts, after all, the more proficient you are at the Dark Arts, the better you are at fighting that power. Moreover, the new principal is more inclined to practice teaching than simply reading textbooks......

Brandi: They had some expectations.

But as a result, Professor Carlo's approach to practice was beyond everyone's expectations.

As you can see, there are bluish and purple spots on his arms, which is the first sign of the voodoo curse. People who are attacked by a voodoo curse usually begin to develop skin ulcers within 12 to 16 hours...... All the Curse Initiator needs is a cast kit, your name, and three hairs. ”

Professor Caro held Anthony's trembling hand and showed the crowd the symptoms. Anthony's face was as white as paper.

He actually made Muggle-born students his targets!

After class, Brandi and the others watched Anthony cry and run in the direction of the school hospital, and their hearts felt as uncomfortable as if a big rock had been blocked.

"It's just too much." Harry said angrily. "Even a professor can't just cast a curse on someone! He's clearly torturing Anthony! ”

"And he didn't let us speak, and as you can see, Terry, who just questioned his teaching methods, was deducted a full twenty points as soon as he opened his mouth." Brandi said solemnly, "Besides, he's using some delayed curses, just deliberately putting psychological pressure on people...... We can't directly accuse him of personal attacks. Bear with me for a while, and Professor Lockhart's offensive will begin soon. ”

"But can he really do it? I mean, he's a little more reliable in the Chamber of Secrets, though...... But just a few of his book lovers......"

"Then you could not be more wrong, Ron, and never underestimate the strength of middle-aged women." Brandi patted Ron on the shoulder, a look of a passer-by. "Men control the world, women control men. I've experienced this truth at home. Don't worry so much, let's think about how to celebrate tomorrow. ”

Yes, even in this frightening and disgusting atmosphere, they still had something to look forward to today's lunchtime, and Professor Sprout announced the rare good news since the lockdown of the Vault, that it was time for the mandrake to be harvested, and that Hermione and Parvati would be back by tomorrow morning at the latest.
