Chapter 269 should be combined with the outside

"I don't believe there's anyone in the castle going to help Blake in. Pen %Fun %Cabinet www.biquge.info" Dumbledore said categorically, and his tone was resolute at this point.

Dumbledore hesitated, as if to say something, but didn't speak.

He walked towards the outside of the Great Hall, "I still need to inform the Dementors, and I promised to notify them when the search is complete." ”

Dumbledore walked briskly out of the Great Hall, Snape stood there for a moment, George could still perceive the smell of anger in him, and then he left.

――――――――――-

The next day, fear was still spreading in the academy, not only what happened to the fat lady yesterday, but also what worried the students was that they needed to take their pets to the mutual aid club for inspection and registration.

The classmates shuddered at the thought of the pets and companions sleeping next to them and crawling on top of them, most likely a dark wizard who killed people without blinking.

They scrambled to lock the pets firmly with a solid iron cage, and then cautiously carried the cage to the activity room of the mutual aid society. They waited anxiously in long queues, waiting for registration and inspection.

In the afternoon, George and Kate were checking the students' pets one by one with the Transfiguration Charm, and the pets that passed the Transfiguration Charm were registered.

Suddenly, there was a commotion at the door, and Ron and Neville, pale and with their hands down, staggered in. Harry and Hermione walked on either side of them, looking at them worriedly, Harry holding his owl Hedwig, and Hermione holding her lion-cub Crook Mountain.

Seeing the tragic situation of Ron and Neville, everyone speculated that something seemed to be happening, and they continued to line up, poking their heads out to look around.

"Something happened. George walked up and whispered, and the others pricked up their ears.

"Ron's specks are gone, Neville's Levoues are gone, and we've scoured all corners of Gryffindor and found nothing. Ha said in a worried tone.

After the attack on the Fat Lady at the Academy, Ron and Neville's pets suddenly disappear when George is about to thoroughly inspect the pets in the Academy, which cannot but make people think of the worst.

"I really can't believe that Ron's spots are actually changed by a dark wizard, it's terrifying. Hermione said in a frightened tone, she gently stroked Crookshan, and said, "It's still Crookshan's cleverness, it must have noticed this a long time ago, and it's been so fierce to Spotted all along." ”

Crookshank lay obediently in Hermione's arms, rubbing its soft head against Hermione's hands.

Ron said in a pale and stiff tone, "It's not going to be spotty, it's been in our house for twelve years." A wizard can't possibly keep the Animagus transfiguration for that long, he'll go crazy. ”

"You forgot? The owner of the magical creatures shop in Diagon Alley also said that rats don't live longer than three years. Spotted has lived for twelve years, and you should have noticed it early in the morning. Hermione hit the nail on the head.

Ron shook his head and said, "Maybe it's something special, it's not unusual for animals in the wizarding world to live a little longer. It is impossible for a wizard to turn into a mouse for twelve years, let alone a powerful wizard who has mastered the Animagus. ”

George nodded and said, "Indeed, a wizard has been transformed into a mouse for twelve years, and I can't imagine that he hasn't gone crazy. And in Ron's house, there is nothing worth stealing and cheating. ”

George also felt that a wizard who could master a spell as difficult as Animagus would not be unknown. There's no way they've been pretending to be a rat for twelve years, that's enough to drive any wizard insane.

George's support reassured Ron, who immediately said, "Yes, that's it, I guess the dark wizard changed Neville's Toad Levot." It's not like a normal pet, it's always getting lost, maybe it's planning some kind of conspiracy in private. ”

Neville looked at Ron dumbfounded, he didn't know how to justify, he just said awkwardly, "It's not going to be... Radford... It won't be... Radford. ”

Hermione pondered for a moment, shook her head, and said, "That's not right, Riffford was once fed a shrinking potion by Snape, and then it turned into a tadpole. If it's a dark wizard, it won't turn into a tadpole. And it's often bullied by other people, used by teachers for experiments, and as a pet, it's too stupid to be a dark wizard. ”

"Yes, Rifle is too stupid to be a dark wizard. Neville excitedly said that his Rifle wouldn't be a Dark Wizard.

"Maybe the dark wizard has an extra toad?" Ron said in a tone of uncertainty.

Hermione immediately said angrily, "Then your Spotted may also be a stand-in prepared by the wizard." He only turns into a rat when he needs it, and the rest of the time, he hides outside. ”

George nodded and said, "In that case, it makes a lot more sense." The Dark Wizard prepared a pet that looked like his Animagus, and they replaced it if necessary. At other times, the pet is returned so that no one will find it and the dark wizard will not go crazy. ”

Now everyone couldn't help but nodded, it must be like this. It is absolutely impossible for wizards to become a mouse or toad and live forever, or in a few months, they will go crazy.

Hermione was nodding her head, and suddenly something came to mind, and she asked suspiciously, "But Sirius Black, who only escaped from Azkaban this year." It's not about the number, it's not about the time. ”

Harry pushed his glasses with his fingers and said decisively, "Blake only escaped this year, but many dark wizards have been hiding. Blake infiltrates the school, and when he needs to meet the needs of the outside, the Dark Wizard is his helper. ”

Harry immediately remembered that last night, Snape suspected that someone in the house had joined forces with Blakery. Although he hated Snape to the extreme, he would not be stupid enough to oppose for the sake of opposition, let alone even have a brain.

"Now it all makes sense, there have always been dark wizards lurking in the academy. They replaced the students' pets with Animagus shapeshifts, and lurked in the academy until they joined forces with the Death Eaters to take down the school when the need came. Hermione said this, and couldn't help but gasp.

This is a safe school, it's simply a gladiatorial arena where demons dance and monsters run rampant. Voldemort came to visit from time to time, a basilisk that had lived in the academy for more than a thousand years, and a dark wizard who had been lurking in the academy for many years, maybe even the teacher was unreliable.
