After learning from Flitwick and Pomona that the petrified Harry and Claire had been taken to the school infirmary by Dumbledore, Rosie immediately returned to the second floor with Grice, bypassing the library and heading further to the school infirmary.

Aggressive!

With a quick triple knock on the door, she heard Dumbledore's voice coming from inside the room:

"Please come in!"

Pushing open the oak door, Dumbledore and McGonagall stood in front of the beds of the petrified Harry.

Next to them was Claire, who looked confused and overwhelmed.

"Professor Dumbledore, Claire ......"

"She's been under the Imperius Curse before, but she's been broken by Severus with a spell."

Hearing this, Rosie immediately breathed a sigh of relief, she had just guessed that Claire was controlled by the Imperius Curse, and now that she heard that the spell had been lifted, she was naturally a lot more relieved.

"Claire, how are you feeling now?" She asked, walking up to Claire.

"Professor Rossi, my mind is blank, and I can't remember anything for days." Claire said nervously and blankly.

"Can you recall a specific number of days that you have forgotten? Or rather, what is the last memory you can remember? โ€

"My last memory seems to be coming back from Hogsmeade with you, going back to the Gryffindor common room alone. Well...... I seemed to hear Percy's voice. โ€

Percy again?

It seems that as Lucius said, Percy was also controlled by Voldemort.

I just don't know, how many people did Voldemort control?

If the people controlled by the Imperius Curse can still use spells to control others, wouldn't the number of people controlled reach an exponential level?

Frightened by his own thoughts, Rosie couldn't help but gasp.

At this time, Grice, who had been silent for a long time at the three of Harry, said in a gloomy tone:

"I'm sorry, Professor Dumbledore."

At the moment when her words fell, noticing that Dumbledore was casting an inexplicable gaze on Grice, Rossi didn't think about it, and immediately stepped forward to block her: "That, Professor Dumbledore, I have a mandrake resurrection potion here." โ€

As she spoke, she pulled out the potion that Erin had made from her backpack.

At this moment, a gloomy voice that sounded a little aggressive came from the door:

"Rosie, you're quite well prepared, why, did you expect such a day?"

It was none other than Snape, who held a large flask of the same color as the potion Rosie had taken out.

Hearing his sarcastic words, Rosie, who knew his character and knew that he was wrong, just smiled awkwardly and did not refute it.

Seeing her like this, Snape came over with an exaggerated cloak like a flutter, took the potion in her hand and opened it, fanned the bottle with his right hand and sniffed the smell, then closed the bottle and handed it back:

"It's pretty good, but if they use it, Potter and they're afraid it will take a day to depetrify."

Rosie looked down at the potion in his hand, and the effective time displayed on the system attributes was indeed one day.

"Alright, Rosie, just leave it to Severus here."

Blue eyes moved away from Grice's face, and Dumbledore spoke meaningfully, "I think we need to have a good talk. โ€

Despite some apprehension, Rosie could only nod and follow him and McGonagall out of the school doctor's room and into a small study on the edge of the hallway.

This is McGonagall's office, and as soon as you enter, you can see most of the Hogwarts campus through the polished glass window on the opposite side.

"Rosie, I thought you had a good chance of preventing this from happening by taking Miss Grace with you."

Although Rosie never mentioned Grice's special identity to Dumbledore, she was not surprised that the other party knew about Grice's identity.

From the time he agreed to let Grice be Rosie's assistant teacher, it was actually something that both of them knew.

"Professor Dumbledore, we don't want to see this happen, but in fact, whether Grice is with me or not, I can't avoid it, after all, we all know that Voldemort is eyeing it.

And this matter can be traced back to the root cause, and the crux of the problem still has to be attributed to Voldemort.

So our priority now is to find out what he wants to do, or what he wants to do. โ€

Dumbledore's eyes flashed behind his glasses, "Do you have any thoughts or clues about this?" โ€

"While in Hogsmeade today, I stumbled upon the Malfoys in a hidden place."

Taking out Lucius' wand from the inventory, Rosie briefly recounted how he had touched the couple, "Moreover, Claire also said just now that she heard Percy's voice, so there is a high probability that Percy is now also controlled by the Imperius Curse." โ€

After a pause, she said with some concern: "The only thing that is uncertain now is how many people Voldemort has controlled through this, if ......"

Hearing this, McGonagall, who was communicating with Dumbledore with her eyes, couldn't help but interject:

"Use the Imperius Curse to control others, and there will be no more than three targets at the same time, otherwise the spirit will be too scattered to achieve the control effect."

After a pause, she said again: "Also, Percy didn't go to Hogsmeade today, he submitted an application to go to the Forbidden Forest yesterday to find potion materials, and now he should be exploring the Forbidden Forest with Hagrid." โ€

Well??? Percy and Hagrid in the Forbidden Forest?

Rosedon, who was relieved by the restrictions on the use of the Imperius Curse, was a little dumbfounded.

Lucius may be lying, but Rosie will never believe that Claire, who has come to her senses, will lie, not to mention, the clues of the system are still hanging there, there should be no problem, right?

Glancing at the clue about Percy in the quest panel, Rosie turned to Dumbledore:

"Professor Dumbledore, maybe Lucius's words are not true, but Claire's words can't be wrong, right?

Also, Peter Pettigrew's rat had been Percy's pet before, and I was a guest at Weasley's house during the summer vacation, and Percy took his mouse on a trip and didn't return.

As soon as school began this year, Peter immediately became Voldemort's subordinate, and speaking of which, I only now thought of investigating Percy, which was a very undeserved omission. โ€

Speaking of which, Rosie was really a little annoyed, and he didn't think of this earlier.

"So, Professor Dumbledore, no matter what, we should go to Percy and confirm his current status."

After a moment of silence, Dumbledore raised his eyes to meet McGonagall's eyes, and then nodded slowly:

"Okay, then let's go to the Forbidden Forest and make sure there's nothing wrong with him."
