Chapter 376: Suspicious

Luke's brow furrowed tightly, as if he was bothered by something. The food on the plate didn't move for a long time. There was also only one croissant in it.

Taylor looked at Luke's expression and reluctantly brought him an omelette, a strip of bacon and a glass of milk.

Looking at Taylor's service to Luke, everyone's expressions were also different. The current Taylor is no longer the little transparent when she first entered the school, and now she is also a pretty bright girl in school with her excellent eye looks and strong potions talent.

It is also worshipped as a goddess by some junior juniors and senior seniors.

It's just that this goddess has really been famous for a long time. Luke and Taylor's relationship is also known to everyone throughout Hogwarts. It's just that because there are always other girls close to Luke, and the two of them don't admit it publicly, everyone is not sure if these two people are the kind of relationship everyone thinks.

"Is there anything wrong with what happened last night?"

There was no one else around, just Luke, Hermione, and Taylor themselves. So Taylor didn't play dumb riddles, and asked directly.

Luke took a deep breath and nodded, "It's a bit of a problem."

"At first, I suspected that the most suspicious of the three was Jenkins Moore."

Taylor nodded, "But he was the first professor to arrive, and he met the attacker."

The appearance of two people at the same time can basically dispel the suspicion of this person. Although there will certainly still be people who will find it suspicious. But in fact, because of the cost involved, it basically does not use the conventional method of doppelganger to test and win the trust of others.

Because the cost is just too high.

"Time Turner, is it possible?"

Hermione had listened to the two of them briefly summarize the events of last night in the morning, so she knew what the two were talking about, and gave her own guesses by the way.

Taylor frowned, "Unlikely. If two selves from the past and the future meet, we don't know what will happen. But it's not going to be a good thing."

This is a warning that anyone who has ever used a time turner has ever been warned. When practicing some magic related to time, I will also hear about similar things. This is not unusual. After all, the wizarding world is also quite cautious about dealing with time-related magic.

"We really don't know what's going to happen, so we don't know what to do if that happens." Hermione took a sip of her milk, and then continued, "Moreover, this kind of two people can't see each other, does it mean that the past self can't realize that the other side is the future self?"

"Personally, I think the latter is more likely. After all, when you travel through the past, you will inevitably have to deal with your past self. Some meetings are unavoidable, and most importantly, don't let your past self know about your future self. That's it."

Taylor tilted his head to look at Hermione, who was talking.

"Thoughts?"

"Part of it. There is also a part of the inference, the inference with a certain certainty." Hermione said confidently.

Taylor nodded, then looked at Luke, "Is it possible?"

Luke pondered for a moment and said, "This is really my blind spot. I don't know if that's going to happen."

"But even with a time converter, the risks of doing so are aside. To win my trust, or to confuse the public, to use a time turner, that's a luxury."

The principle of the time converter is still unknown. Some scholars speculate that the most important thing in a time converter is the sand grain in it. It's a consumable, just like the energy for a time turner.

Use a little, a little less. Time turners are basically non-renewable resources in the wizarding world. The preciousness of this thing can be imagined.

In the same way, the cost of the other doppelgangers is much the same. It's the kind of thing that makes Luke feel distressed if he uses it

Exist. In his opinion, if he really wants to use these methods to win his own words, why is it so complicated and arouses his own suspicions?

Give him the stuff directly, and Luke promises to trust you like a brother.

Although Luke doesn't have a brother, it's just that.

"In short, it still doesn't clear Jenkins Moore's suspicion. But as things stand, the probability that Jenkins Moore is the one in question is very low."

Luke candidly admits his mistakes in reasoning. Predicting so much in advance, there is no shame in being wrong.

"Now, then, the suspicion lies with Chrissy Lystrange and Fleur Delacour?"

Hermione recalled the faces of the two girls in her mind, then shook her head and said, "I don't feel like that."

"Last night's person didn't match these two people."

Taylor followed up and added, "It doesn't look like there's any connection."

Last night's attacker, although he was relatively short, judging from his subtle movements and body shape, this person should still be a man.

So it's not very likely.

Luke didn't nod in approval, nor did he shake his head in disapproval. He came to the conclusion that he is now nothing more than to eliminate all the impossibilities, and the rest is the truth no matter how ridiculous it is.

"It's hard to say, after all, things like body shape and appearance can't be done accurately."

Luke retorted at this point. After all, in his opinion, this matter is indeed strange, but it has not reached the level that would be bothering.

"Go slowly, as long as it is at Hogwarts, if he dares to pop out, it is ten points, or even nine points, unwise."

As Luke said this, the two girls beside him looked at him with puzzled expressions.

This made Luke also feel a little emotional, even after so many years, the memories of his previous life would still attack him from time to time.

He had long since lost sight of who he really was. He was Luke Gaunt. But now this kind of situation where no one understands it, and no one can catch it, it will still make people feel a little embarrassed and lost.

But everyone understands the reason. The two girls are no longer entangled.

"You can go talk to Dumbledore first, and I'll get back."

Taylor cleaned up the table in front of him, and then said to Luke, "There's a class in the morning. It doesn't matter if you don't go, I still have to go to class."

Luke scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed. After all, he seems to be in a different state from everyone who is in a hurry to eat breakfast and then go to class in a hurry.

He can skip breakfast or skip class.

Taylor and Hermione didn't have time to pay attention to Luke's thoughts. The two men got up and walked away together.

If the two of them were in class, they would definitely be together. The more senior the Snake House and the Lion House are, the more time they have to attend classes together, and it is even a bit binding.

The relationship between the two colleges is really not good. I can only say that I am puzzled by the brain circuits of the teacher who arranges the class.

And this class schedule is not scheduled by a few professors now.

Last reorder the class schedule,. It seems to have been dozens, or even centuries ago. It can only be said that the curriculum can also be passed down from generation to ancestry, which can show the heritage of an ancient wizarding school!

The latter sentence is a joke.

Luke thought about what he didn't have, and then he saw another figure in the afterglow.

"Good morning."

Luke took the initiative to greet the visitor.

Chrissy Lystrange yawned and said, "Good morning."

"Didn't sleep well?"

Luke asked.

"When I was about to go to bed last night, I heard Taylor's cry for help, and when I was about to go out to see, the matter was settled. Before I could walk out of the lounge, Taylor was back."

What happened last night seemed very harmful and dangerous, but in fact it was only a momentary incident

It's just love. It only takes ten minutes before the matter is resolved.

It was not possible for Taylor's voice to reach Slytherin's common room. The others also did not hear Taylor's cries for help.

But Taylor's best magic, her natural magic, is sound. One of her personal belongings was used to call for help. and the link on her body, as long as you call for help, it will make a sound.

That's what Chrissy heard last night, and it took her so long to think she was hallucinating. After all, when she heard the call for help and walked out of the dormitory door, the doors of the other dormitories were still closed, and there were even faint sounds of laughter and conversation coming from some dormitories.

This peaceful state made her wonder if she had heard it wrong. After all, if there really is something wrong, how can you be so calm?

Taylor wasn't a guy at school that everyone shouted at, and others applauded when they saw her suffering.

If Taylor had really shouted for help and was heard, this would definitely not be the case now.

So Chrissy was at a loss. After struggling for a while, she decided to go out and see if there was anything wrong. She also has to take risks. You must know that she is from another school although she communicates. But as I said before, if they violate the rules and discipline and cause a deduction of points, they will still be deducted by the corresponding college.

And if they, as outsiders, let the house points be deducted, or even become the last straw that breaks the camel's back, then Chrissy herself can't imagine what her situation in this school will become.

But it's not very wonderful when you think about it.

But if you go, you go. She couldn't afford to watch someone close to Luke get hurt. It's okay if she doesn't know it. If you don't save it if you know about it, isn't it pure and Luke's opposite?

still wants to be friendly with Luke, and Luke is restrained if he doesn't turn his face.

"What the hell happened last night?"

Chrissy asked, a little confused. It was too late, Taylor was frightened again, and after being sent back to the dorm by Luke, she said hello to Chrissy and went to sleep.

The three of them met at the door of the break room, and Luke was thinking about things at the time, ignoring Chriss.

Chrissy has lived like a princess everywhere for so many years. But I still enjoy a lot of preferential treatment. On top of that, few people would ignore her.

But both of them did that last night.

The main reason why Luke was able to ignore Chrissy was because in terms of identity and status, he was only higher than Chriss, and there was no need to think about Chrissy's thoughts at all. Chrissy recognized this.

But how dare Taylor ignore her? Is it just because of his intimacy with Luke?

Luke didn't know what Chrissy was thinking, and if he knew, he would have told Chriss.

Taylor ignores her because of Taylor's talent and abilities. When a nobleman can only blow his hand with his natural bloodline and natural appearance, then there is not much difference between this nobleman and a walking organic garbage.

It's just that there are really not many nobles who can understand this truth.

"Nothing, an attack on Taylor. The motive is unknown, the attacker is unknown, and the means of infiltration are unknown."

Luke said it was about the same as not saying it.

But that's the way it is, they don't know anything now, and the whole person is still confused.

Chrissy nodded. It seems that last night's attack was true, which means that I did not hear it wrong at the time, and I did not make a wrong choice...... But here comes the problem.

"Do you doubt me?"

Chrissy asked Luke softly.

Luke turned his head and saw a look of determination in his aggrieved eyes.

Chrissy is also a smart girl, and she seemed to have good intentions when she went out last night, but she still got herself into trouble after all. After all, it's strange that they come back and go out on their own, without attracting suspicion.

But her eyes, too, tell Luke, you doubt me,

I'm sad. And I firmly believe that I am innocent.

It's just that, in the face of such a look, Luke just nodded silently: "That's right, I doubt you......"

Chrissy looked helpless, and could only say that Luke really didn't play his cards according to the routine.

"I doubt each and every one of you." Luke continued, "It's not the first time this kind of attack has happened, it's just that I was the one who was attacked before, and now it's Taylor."

With that, Luke finished his breakfast as well, stood up and said to Taylor, "Eat some. The French food cooked by the elves at Hogwarts is quite authentic. There's nothing wrong with you."

After all, you can't expect students to prepare for stargazing pie and fish and chips early in the morning.

It's not that it's not good, but it's really not suitable for breakfast.

After a brief exchange of words with Chriss, Luke went to Dumbledore's office.

He didn't go to report the situation, but to exchange clues.

………………

Pushing open the door, Luke saw Dumbledore fiddling with two small balls of magic on his desk.

"Professor, did you find anything?"

Dumbledore looked at Luke for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It can only be said that these two people are indeed not the same person. The doppelganger's plan can even be basically completely rejected."

Luke also didn't expect to receive such bad news as soon as he entered the door.

In other words, last night's attackers, is it really going to be found from the two girls?

He recalled the conversation he had with Chrissy just now, and thought for a while that there was nothing wrong with the other party.

"Then I'm a little confused right now."

Luke said as he sat down in the chair in front of Dumbledore, looking slightly distressed.

Dumbledore grimaced, then said, "There's one more bad news and ......."

"Please tell me and good news!"
