It's not just a theft!

Polyjuice decoction is a powerful potion. He can make a person completely change his whole body into another in a certain period of time, and this change is completely unrecognizable to the naked eye and ordinary magic.

When you think about the previous Hogwarts attacks, this is undoubtedly a big deal.

Draco Malfoy stood there a little confused, still unsure what the Polyjuice Potion was.

Professor Horace Slughorn, however, turned pale with fright...... What he was thinking about now was more than just the loss of the two medicinal herbs.

"I'll have to talk to Headmaster Rozier, such important news ......," Slughorn muttered.

As soon as he got out of the potions storage room, he quickly turned around again—

"Matthew, Draco, come with me to Professor Rozier!" he said quickly, "Be a witness for me." ”

Matthew and Malfoy looked at each other, and finally had to follow.

......

In fact, Matthew Wakefield doesn't quite understand why his "after-school practice" course often encounters these little troubles.

But more and more information began to converge in his mind...... The truth of everything that happened this semester seems to have become extremely clear.

Since it was Saturday morning, there weren't many students in the hallway. They easily made their way to the second floor, to the door of the office of the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Vita Rozier—

The door to the vice-chancellor's office was hidden.

Slughorn began to prepare to break in, but stopped less than a yard from the wooden door...... Matthew and Malfoy also had to stop there.

At the same time, they heard the sound of two people talking in the office.

It were two women, one of whom was undoubtedly Headmaster Rozier, and the other had a slightly unfamiliar voice, at least Matthew had never heard it at Hogwarts before.

"That's bad, Vita...... So bad that I had to contact you!" said the strange female voice.

"It's Barnold!" Malfoy leaned into Matthew's ear and whispered, "I know this voice, it's Millicent Barnold......"

Millicent Barnard is currently Minister for Magic. Since taking over the position of Minister in 1980, he has been widely acclaimed in the wizarding community......

Matthew had seen the name and her photo in the Daily Prophet before, and of course it was rumored that Minister Barnold and the Headmaster of Hogwarts had a good relationship.

"I hope you understand, Millicent. Professor Rozier's voice could even imagine her frowning at this time: "Hogwarts is still safe now!"

"I certainly believe that. Minister Barnold replied, "I believe in you, Weta, and of course in President Grindelwald...... But the Ministry of Magic was already under great pressure at this time. ”

"This pressure won't last long...... Professor Rozier whispered.

"I'm sorry, but we're having a hard time holding it out. "Three students were attacked, one of whom is still unknown...... After a Christmas break, this kind of thing had spread throughout the wizarding world...... and the editorial office of the Daily Prophet had done its best, but countless owls still flew to them every day, questioning why the Ministry of Magic had not made it public...... Honestly, Vita, even I have some doubts right now......"

"We have our own reasons. The vice principal said.

"I believe, I certainly believe ......," the minister continued:

"But you see, it's another incident, another child is missing, and I don't think you have found his whereabouts...... To be honest, Vita, it's not that I don't believe you, but now the facts are in front of me! Come to think of it, I'm under a lot of pressure right now, and I have to do something......"

"What are you going to do?" continued the vice-principal.

"This matter can no longer be suppressed, and I have to at least give an explanation to the public...... At least there must be an account......," pleaded the minister:

"Vita, I know that there is a teacher in your school and the available evidence is very unfavorable to him, so I would like to be able to take him away...... Take him to Azkaban! If it turns out that he didn't do it, we'll apologize and send him back, and then the public won't be able to say anything!"

"If you can't suppress these attacks, then don't suppress them anymore. The vice principal said coldly:

"But I can't do anything like taking a teacher away at Hogwarts. Why don't you contact Master Grindelwald directly!"

Then I heard a strange voice, as if the conversation had been forcibly cut off.

......

Slughorn walked over and knocked lightly on the door.

"Please come in!" Professor Rozier's voice rang out from inside the office.

Matthew followed Slughorn and Malfoy into the vice-principal's office...... He saw Professor Rozier hurrying back to her chair from the fireplace.

There was no Minister Millison Barnold in the entire office, who was probably having that conversation with the Headmaster of Hogwarts in the fireplace.

Of course, Slughorn, Malfoy, and Matthew pretended to be completely unaware of the previous conversation.

"Professor Rozier. Slughorn exclaimed, "My private storage room has been burglarized!"

"What did you lose?" Professor Rozier asked calmly.

"Two very precious medicinal herbs. Slughorn hurriedly said, "A two-horned beast's horn, and an African tree snakeskin...... The losses are close to four hundred Galleons!"

"And more importantly......" Slughorn's voice slowly became a little quieter, "These two herbs are the core ingredients for the preparation of the compound decoction...... Headmaster Rozier, someone at Hogwarts is trying to make a polyjuice potion illegally. ”

However, Professor Rozier's face did not change much.

She just nodded calmly, "Okay, Horace, I see." ”

Then, she unceremoniously issued an eviction order.

She didn't even look at Matthew and Malfoy the whole time.
