Chapter 51: Get rid of the evil
The morning sun shines through the turquoise waters of the Black Lake onto the Slytherin lounge, sparkling waves swaying through the room, urging students to start their day.
After Ning An washed up as usual, he waited in the lounge for Daphne to go to breakfast with him.
Daphne, whose memory has been tampered with, has not changed except for forgetting the truth about the Kalidora incident, and she is still the person Ning An trusts the most.
"Lockhart's class today?" Picking up a slice of bread, Daphne muttered in disgust.
Gildero? Lockhart, the new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor this year, revealed in his first class that he had no real talent, and he just had his students read aloud the stories he wrote about in his book against strange creatures.
This also made most of the students think that he is a bombastic guy.
Ning An still remembers that in the first class, Lockhart smiled and said to him in front of him, in a way that he thought was beautiful: "Oh? Are you Slytherin's most gifted student? For Merlin's sake - I was the best in the school back then, and see, we have something in common, and I wouldn't mind giving you a few autographs. β
Ning An still had some resentment about not being able to kill him directly with the Killing Curse.
"Yoyo" An exaggerated and flirtatious voice suddenly came from behind him: "Isn't this a Slytherin genius, Ning An?" β
Ning An frowned, he hadn't met such a provocative guy for a long time.
Daphne was also a little surprised, and the two of them looked back to see three tall-looking Slytherin students standing behind them.
In the middle, a man with blonde hair and a pair of thick arms, a large man, looked like a boxer rather than a wizard, and behind him were two boys who were one size younger than him, but equally strong.
Ning An knows him, this person's name is Pierre? Trudeau is a fifth-year Slytherin student who used to be the one who used to bully Samantha the most.
Two people behind him, one named Joe? Andres, a guy named Al? Gore is Pierre's henchman, and the three of them are also bullies in the fifth grade, so such a sudden provocation would not have been unintentional.
Ning An looked at Pierre expressionlessly, quietly waiting for the other party's next words, Daphne had already reached into his cuffs and held the wand, but AndrΓ©s and Gore also reached into their arms.
The atmosphere became tense, and the surrounding Slytherin students realized that something was wrong and looked over this way.
"Oh oh - don't worry, don't worry"
Pierre stretched out his hand to stop his attendant from taking out his wand, his narrow eyes, staring at Ning An like a poisonous snake, slowly leaned over and said:
"I heard you've been asking that little guy from Samantha to gather some upperclassmen lately?" He had a look of disdain on his face
"You want them all to join that little organization of yours?"
Seeing that Ning An was still looking at him expressionlessly, indifferent to his ridicule, Pierre felt annoyed and angry, he aggravated his tone and said viciously:
"Do you think he can do it? That sissy? β
Pierre imitated Samantha's voice, and his voice was sharpened and thin, and the two henchmen behind him laughed in unison.
"You're done?"
Ning An didn't seem to hear the other party's ridicule, but just asked lightly, which made Pierre's face even more ugly.
He lowered his voice but threatened more fiercely: "Very good, your attitude is good, second grade, let me see, how can your little organization be?" Guess how many people will be willing to join you? β
In the end, he left a sentence full of deep meaning: "You'd better be careful when you're alone." β
After speaking, he no longer looked at Ning An's reaction, and turned around and left with Gore and Andres.
"Interesting." Ning An rubbed her chin, and Daphne leaned over and looked at Ning An with an inquiring gaze, as if to say if she wanted to call someone else over.
Ning An shook his head and said indifferently:
"Let's go," he said, getting up and walking towards the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom.
He really didn't care about Pierre's childish taunts, his mind was now on another person, Delix, the Auror sent by the Ministry of Magic, who had been probing around for the past few days.
Although Ning An knew that he couldn't find out anything, the Auror would often appear next to him out of nowhere, either spying on him or asking him all sorts of questions, which greatly reduced Ning An's disposable time.
So he always wanted to get rid of this trouble first.
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
The opportunity came quickly, and at noon that day, Dlux was approached by a student.
After investigating at Hogwarts for so long, Dlux recognized the student in front of him at a glance, this person named Archibald? McLeish's student is the roommate of Ning An, the prime suspect in his disappearance.
Seeing McLeish hesitantly appear in front of him, Delix had a premonition that something might be happening, and he had a feeling that today might be the day when all doubts surfaced.
"Rest assured, in the name of the Ministry of Magic, I assure you, Archibald, that after you tell me everything you know, you will never be harmed by any evil wizard, and if necessary, we can even send other Aurors to protect you."
Macleish looked hesitant, he seemed to have a lot of secrets to confide in, but his eyes were full of timidity and fear.
Seeing that he was still hesitating, Delix couldn't help but threaten:
"You have to think about McLeish, if you know something bad about the Aurors and hide it from the Aurors, you will also be sent to Azkaban, and I think the Dementors will like you very much."
His nostrils were slightly open, and he couldn't help but inhale deeply, as if to express the joy in his heart that was only one step away from the truth.
"No, I'm not going to Azkaban." Hearing Azkaban, Macleish looked terrified, gritted his teeth, and seemed to have finally made up his mind.
Raising his head, he looked at Delix, and said with a little fear, "Tomorrow morning, we will meet under that beating willow in the Forbidden ForestβI'm going to prepare somethingβyou knowβ"
"Good!"
Dlux nodded excitedly, he didn't have time to think about why McLeish wouldn't tell him until tomorrow, he only knew that he would soon be able to solve a case again, which undoubtedly brought him one step closer to the position of the head of the Auror Office.
Sending McLeish away, and repeatedly promising him that he would be safe, Dlux excitedly returned to the lounge prepared for him.
This night, in a dream, he became the director of the Aurors, sitting in a busy office, and the countless men and women of the Aurors under his command obeyed his command, which was simply the most beautiful dream he had ever had.
In the early morning of the next day, Delux almost couldn't wait to run early to the huge beating willow in the Forbidden Forest and wait, the tall trees that covered the sky and the sun almost covered the entire sky, and the chirping of some strange creatures came from the Forbidden Forest from time to time.
But Dlux didn't care about any of this, he just hoped that McLeish would quickly write him useful information, and even bring him the evidence himself, so that he could quickly arrest Ning'an, the evil little wizard, and hand him over to the Wizengamot trial, and then throw him in Azkaban.
He was promoted, and he progressed step by step to the position of director of the Auror Office.
Just when Delishi was immersed in a sweet dream and couldn't extricate himself, he saw that the air in front of him suddenly opened up, and two figures appeared in front of him out of thin air, as if they were slowly taking off their invisibility cloaks, and the two people revealed their faces.
"Ning'an ββ?" Dlux exclaimed in surprise, "McLeishβwhy are you with him?" β
He realized that something was wrong, not to mention that the two of them were together, Ning An's spell just now was enough to surprise people, what was that?
Illusion Spell?
Isn't he only in the second grade?
Looking at the strange smile on Ning An's face, Delix sensed that something was wrong, but after all, he was a trained Auror, and immediately decided to strike first, he drew his wand and shouted almost instantly
"Fainted"
A bright light rushed towards Ning An in an instant, and a smug smile appeared on Delix's face, no matter how talented he was, after all, he was just an inexperienced child, he had already planned to arrest Ning An back like this at this time, and then use the truth elixir to force out everything.
However, unexpectedly, Ning An seemed to have expected it, and directly hid behind McLeish early, the light hit McLeish, and he slowly slipped down, but at the same time, a cold chanting sound sounded behind him.
"Dig into the bones!"
The red light flashed, and the wand was pointed at McLeish's back at Delix, who barely had time to react before being struck.
Completely different from the Diamond Heart Spell cast by Samantha, Ning An's spell seemed to be much more powerful.
Delix's whole body was almost knocked away, and he was knocked by the power contained in the spell itself to a thick willow tree not far away, although it was not a beating willow, but he endured more severe pain than being whipped.
The whole person curled up like a shrimp, convulsions, he didn't even have the strength to scream in pain, what arrest Ning An, what the director of the Auror office, all of this disappeared from Delix's mind.
His brain could no longer make him think anything other than to transmit it to him boundless pain.
Time flies so slowly, and an incredible scene is unfolding in the Forbidden Forest, where a young wizard is pointing his wand at an adult wizard who is twitching on the ground as if suffering from endless pain.
Finally, Ning An raised his wand, and Delis on the ground breathed a sigh of relief, but his body still did not stop twitching, his feet trembled, the wand had long been lost, and his heart experienced the most violent movement in his life, and the beating sound could be heard even by Ning An, who was standing not far away.
