Chapter 187
“Please feel free, but you should also be careful, I can still feel the gift box first, and the evil atmosphere inside is thick!” Peter pointed to the box on the ground next to him.
“Amazing perception!” Dumbledore gave him a compliment, then turned to the gift box, hunched over, and looked down at the box that had been opened.
Inside was an emerald necklace, which looked very luxurious, but if you look closely, you would find that the gem was full of evil breath, and there was a murmur, as if tempting the people who saw it to wear it!
Dumbledore tapped on it with his Old Wand, then stood up and said to Snape, “Severus, this is your specialty, and you come and see what magic this is?” ”
Snape nodded silently, then solemnly picked up the necklace with his wand and looked at it carefully before turning back and saying, “This is a black magic necklace with a curse on it that will tempt people to wear it.” If you wear it, it won’t be long before you die! ”
“And the murderer is obviously worried that he is not safe, so he cast a black magic on the necklace and directly attacked the person who opened it, trying to kill him with one blow!”
“Adele Rowling was hit by this spell, thanks to the help of Peter’s phoenix, otherwise in a few minutes, she would have bled out!”
“Merlin, who would be so cruel?” Use such an evil spell against a child! Professor McGonagall exclaimed incredulously, with a look of uneasiness.
“I also wonder, who on earth wants me to die so much?” A mortal curse is not enough, plus a black magic that does not solve the curse! Peter’s cold voice sounded, and his eyes were full of irritability and anger.
“Peter, if you think about it, have you offended anyone lately?” Snape asked Peter.
“We still sent Miss Rowling to the infirmary first, and although she was now saved by the tears of the phoenix, after all, she had shed so much blood and was very weak that she needed Madame Pomfrey to see.” Dumbledore interrupted Snape’s words, then looked at the pool of blood on the ground, frowned, and directly disappeared with a magic change.
“Severus, you put away that dangerous prop first, and we’ll go to the school infirmary now!” Dumbledore motioned to Snape, then looked at Peter’s bloodstained body, cleaned it up and said, “Peter, you too go to the infirmary.” ”
Then the group rushed to the infirmary, leaving the terrified students in the common room.
“Merlin, Adele, what’s wrong with that?” Put it on the bed! Madame Pomfrey looked at Dumbledore, who had floated over with a spell and a miserable face, and exclaimed.
“Miss Rowling was hit by black magic just now, and Peter saved her with the tears of a phoenix, but I still have to ask you to help see what other hidden dangers are there?” Dumbledore explained simply.
When Madame Pomfrey heard this, she immediately took up her wand with a serious face and used various magic to detect it, and then saw the people around her and shouted directly, “You all give me out, don’t get in the way here!” ”
Among those who were expelled were Peter, Snape, and Dumbledore, and Professor McGonagall was left behind by Madame Pomfrey to help.
“Madame Pomfrey’s temper is really the same as ever, and it has not changed for so many years!” Dumbledore, who had been driven out, was not angry, and said with a smile.
To Dumbledore’s words, Snape snorted coldly and did not speak.
It seems that Madame Pomfrey is the big boss hidden in Hogwarts! Even Dumbledore and Snape dared to be intimidated.
But Peter didn’t think so much at this time, since Adele Rowling’s life was not in danger, Peter was now thinking about how to find the murderer!
“Principal Dumbledore, Professor Snape,” Peter asked directly, looking at the two men, “is there any way you can find out who the murderer is?” ”
“I’m afraid it’s hard, Peter, the gift wasn’t signed, there was no address, we can’t even be sure if the gift was sent from outside or inside the school, and the perpetrators have obviously thought it through.” Dumbledore shook his head and sighed.
“Is that the end of it?” Peter looked at him with a reluctant face and asked, “Is there any magic that can be traced back to the murderer through the gift box like a tracking spell?” ”
“Sorry, boy, as far as I know, there is no such magic, and of course it may be that I am lonely.” Dumbledore still shook his head.
“Today is Christmas, and hundreds of owls are sending gifts from all over the place, unless you can pinpoint exactly which owl gave you this gift!” Snape frowned and said, looking at Peter with some concern in his eyes,
“And even if an owl is found, it is difficult to find the murderer through it.” Because the murderer probably sent gifts directly through the Ira Owl Shop, or through the owls owned by the school. There is no way to track unless you can get the owl to speak! ”
Professor Snape had originally wanted to comfort the proud disciple, but when he saw Peter listen to his words, he muttered to himself and could not help but be more worried.
“Let the owl speak, let the owl speak,” Peter said repeatedly, as if thinking of something, his eyes lit up and he said gratefully to Snape, “Professor, thanks for the reminder, I have thought of a way!” ”
“Principal Dumbledore, Professor Snape, please help me watch Sister Rowling here, I’ll come when I go~” Peter greeted them with a confused expression on their faces, and then ran straight to the dormitory.
“Now that he’s figured out a way, let him give it a try, because the children are more flexible than we are, and maybe they can find the murderer,” Dumbledore stopped Snape.
“What I’m worried about is that if this guy can really find out the real murderer, I’m afraid he will recklessly go straight to the door and lose his life!” Snape watched worriedly in the direction Peter was going.
“Severus, I hope you can give Harry some of your attitude toward Peter, and don’t be so mean, he’s still just a child, and your attitude will mislead him!” Dumbledore looked at Snape’s expression now, and his voice turned to Harry Potter.
“Well, if he had half the talent and hard work of Peter, no, even one-tenth!” I wouldn’t say anything about him,” Snape said with disgust on his face and hatred in his eyes, “he was the same as his father, arrogant, reckless, arrogant, enjoying the fame of a savior, but he did not inherit a trace of Lily’s diligence. ”
“Hey, Severus, Harry is just Harry, he’s not an appendage of anyone, you can’t bet the grudges of the previous generation on Harry, it’s very unfair to him!” Dumbledore said to Snape seriously, with a hint of pleading in his expression, “Besides, he is Lily’s child, even for Lily’s sake, he is slightly better to him.” ”
