Chapter 40: Reversing Black and White
Is it McGonagall's voice?
From the voice of the visitor, Rossi immediately heard who it was.
How did she come here?
Just as he was in doubt, he saw McGonagall descend from the sky with a large group of faculty members.
"Stop!!"
After leading the crowd between the four Rossi and Quirrell, and waving her wand to block the spells of both sides, McGonagall re-emphasized.
"Professor McGonagall."
Seeing that most of the Hogwarts teachers had gathered, Rosie put away her wand and greeted McGonagall, "We just found out about the Chamber of Secrets when Quirrell attacked us, and I suspect he has something to do with the death of a Hogwarts student." ”
Hearing this, Flitwick, who was of short stature, immediately turned his inquiring eyes to Quirrell:
"What's going on?"
At the same time, Snape, who was following McGonagall, noticed the figure lying not far away, his face was startled, and he walked over quickly.
"He's dead!"
"Ah?!!h
Hearing this death notice, McGonagall and the others walked over in shock, "Who, who did it!" ”
As McGonagall spoke, a somewhat ugly Snape raised his gloomy eyes, his gaze grim over the faces of the Rossi and Quirrell.
Quirrell, who looked a little embarrassed by his staring, turned pale for a moment.
At this moment, Leah, who was behind everyone, walked quickly towards Quirrell and asked with concern:
"Professor Quirrell, did these thugs hurt you? Don't blame yourself, you didn't save Danny, but you at least kept the murderer! ”
Murderer?
She's going to frame us?
Oh, you're really up to your own abilities!
Rosie reacted immediately, and then sneered and said:
"Miss Liya, don't open your mouth to label others as murderers, who is the real murderer, you know very well in your own heart!"
"No quibbles, Rosie."
Turning to glance at Rosie, Leah turned her gaze to Professor McGonagall and said, "Headmaster McGonagall, Professor Quirrell and I saw them open the Chamber of Secrets and jump out of here with Danny. As I said, Professor Quirrell asked me to call you for help! ”
Speaking of this, she said with a bit of joy in her tone: "Fortunately, we came quickly, otherwise let alone Danny, even Professor Quirrell would definitely not be able to escape their poisonous hands!" ”
"No, that's right!"
Quirrell let out a big breath and pointed at Appa sadly, "I couldn't stop him, stop him from killing Danny with a spell. ”
"Professor McGonagall, that's not the case!"
Rosie immediately retorted, "We were investigating the death of the students, but Quirrell suddenly appeared and attacked us. ”
"That's right! It was Quirrell who bounced my spell and caused that Danny to die. ”
Ah Bai took over the conversation and explained quickly, "And Danny has a problem, he is not a student at Hogwarts, he is one of the real murderers who drank Polyjuice Decoction and mixed up in the school!" ”
Abba's words were exactly what Rosie had just wanted to add.
Hearing this, an imperceptible smile quickly flashed at the corner of Liya's mouth, and then she took a step forward and said with a sad expression:
"You talk nonsense! You murderers! How dare you make up such an outrageous lie! What are your intentions in killing so many students at Hogwarts! ”
"You're talking nonsense! You speak with tonsils! ”
Erin said angrily, "We just arrived at Hogwarts today, and if we frame others, we can't just say anything!" ”
"Just arrived today?"
Leah sneered, "On the surface, I only arrived today, but who knows if you have sneaked into Hogwarts secretly?" You know where the secret room is and how to open it, who will believe that you are here for the first time? ”
"Humph!"
With a cold snort, Rosie's gaze stayed on Leah's face for a moment, and then turned to McGonagall and said, "Professor McGonagall, this dead person is definitely not a Hogwarts student, according to our investigation, he, Quirrell, Leah, and three or four other people are the real culprits in this case!" ”
"As for the evidence, this dead guy is the proof."
As he spoke, Rosie pointed his wand at Danny on the ground.
"The original form is now!"
The formless spell sank into his corpse in an instant, but his appearance did not change in the slightest.
Well?!! How so!
The four of Rossi were shocked and looked at each other.
"Is this what evidence is called?"
Seeing this, Liya next to her sneered coldly, "You murderers, you have been arrested, and you are still arguing here with confidence!" ”
As she spoke, she set her eyes on McGonagall: "Principal McGonagall, arrest them and torture them to extract confessions, don't be afraid that they won't admit it!" ”
"Torture to extract confessions?"
At this moment, Snape sneered, his sharp gaze stopped on Leah's face for two seconds, and then turned to Rossi again, "Use the original form on the deceased?" ”
"When you went to school, you probably didn't pass Potions class! If a person who takes a decoction dies before the effect wears off, the person will retain their deformed appearance and will not be able to regain their original appearance. ”
After a pause, he said in a light tone, "I have a lot of truth-spitting elixirs there, and as long as three drops are enough for a person to reveal the deepest secrets in his heart." ”
If a person who drinks a compound decoction dies, will it always remain the same as after its transformation?
So that's it!
Muttered silently, glancing at Leah, whose expression was unmoved, Rosie suddenly muttered in his heart again, hearing the truth spitting, is this guy so calm? Does she have a way to resist the elixir?
At this time, Jiang Jing, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke:
"There's no need for this, we've just shown up with footprints and tracked down another murderer at Hogwarts disguised as a student, and once we find him, everything will be clear!"
"Another murderer disguised as a student?!!"
Hearing this, McGonagall was taken aback, "Who is he?" ”
"We don't know who it is, but we know what he looks like and we know he's wearing a Hufflepuff uniform."
Rosie glanced at Leah, "Professor McGonagall, I remember you said that lately all the students have been resting in the Great Hall at night, so as long as you go to the Great Hall and look for it, he will definitely have nowhere to hide!" ”
"Good!"
Before McGonagall could speak, she heard Leah say, "Let's go to the auditorium and reveal the true colors of these murderers in front of everyone!" ”
Huh? She's not worried?
Seeing that there was an expectant expression on her face, Rosie suddenly felt a little bad, and looked at Jiang Jing and the three of them in surprise.
What else does she have to do with it? Or are her accomplices hiding somewhere else?
In the midst of his thoughts, he saw McGonagall come forward, look at the four of Rossi with deep eyes, and say:
"I'm sorry, but to be on the safe side, please hand over your wands, and when the truth is revealed, I'll give it back to you and apologize formally."
"Professor McGonagall, they all have spare wands, and they need to collect them together!" With a flash of smugness in her eyes, Lea pointed to the wand bags of the four Rossi and reminded her.
"Hmm!"
McGonagall nodded, then quickly swept her gaze over Quirrell and Leah's faces, "To be fair, Professor Quirrell and Miss Leah, give me your wand for safekeeping!" ”
