Chapter 339 The Malfoy Family’s Secret Weapon

Well, Hermione's words reminded Robert of a famous saying.

It's all the time's fault.

Shaking his head, Robert got rid of this strange thought, "Hermione is right, it's all Tom Riddle's fault."

Harry also looked indignant, "By the way, the Basilisk said that Colin was also deceived."

"By whom?" Hermione asked, "Who encouraged the basilisk to attack other people?!"

"...Um...well..." Harry was a little embarrassed, "It, it said it was Tom Riddle, but he seemed to be controlling a girl and giving orders through her."

"Huh?" Hermione stared at Harry for a long time, then said, "You know who she is! The Basilisk told you, right?"

Harry's eyes wandered for a moment, "Why, how is this possible..."

"Your eyes wander when you lie!" Hermione and Robert said in unison, and Harry sweated even more on his forehead.

"That, that..." Under the gazes of the two men, Harry shrank smaller and smaller, and even his voice became lower and lower.

Hermione stared at him, "Harry, what's wrong with you? Shouldn't you find that person and hand her over to Professor McGonagall? Even if she is not handed over to Professor McGonagall and is controlled by Riddle, Do you know what kind of harm it will cause to the other party?"

"But isn't she already out of control?" Harry raised his voice, "If she is handed over to Professor McGonagall, she will definitely be expelled!"

"Harry, just say this in front of Hermione and I. If other pure-blood wizards hear it, they will laugh to death." Robert looked at him for a while before saying seriously.

Harry seemed to have heard something unbelievable, "I have no friendship with pure-blood wizards! They have been laughing at me for more than a day or two..."

"Ron is a pureblood," Hermione said, interrupting Harry's next argument, "So is Prefect Percy, as well as Fred, Charlie, Neville..."

"Oh, digression, from the definition of pure blood, I am also a member of pure blood." Robert shrugged, "Harry, it really hurts my heart when you say that."

As he spoke, he put on a distressed expression.

Harry was speechless.

"Moreover, the Potter family is actually a very famous pure-blood family." Robert said, "Look, in the entire wizarding world, the slightly famous families are pure-bloods, just like Hannah, their family is also pure-blood. Although Hannah herself is a half-blood wizard. Oh, by the way, Professor Dumbledore is also a pure-blood."

Robert began to count the pure-blood families in the school with his fingers, "Also, not all Slytherins are pure-bloods. For example, the cruel Tom Riddle is actually a mixed-race and a descendant of the Gaunt family. .”

"Isn't it the Slytherin family?" Hermione asked doubtfully.

"Of course not. The Slytherin family has disappeared in the long river of history. The only one left and related by blood is the Gaunt family." Robert spread his hands, "Although the concept of the "Pure Blood Directory" is unacceptable. I agree, but as a book that introduces family history, it can be said to be quite thoughtful."

Harry didn't care so much. He shook his head and insisted on his point of view, "I will never tell you who she is!"

Hermione looked at him and then at Robert, "I think I guessed who it was."

"It's quite obvious." Robert shook his head, "Harry, you are terrible at keeping secrets. Is the person the basilisk is talking about Ginny?"

Harry was speechless.

He lowered his head and said nothing.

Robert rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Man, listen, we know you want to protect Ron's sister, but there's one thing you probably don't know."

Harry tightened his wand in his hand.

"Harry, you should come to more reading groups. In fact, I just learned about this." Hermione stared at him and said seriously, "You will live in the wizarding world in the future. If you even have common sense, I don’t know, but is it any different from wizards who want to integrate into the Muggle world but often do ridiculous things?”

"Well, I once saw a wizard who thought that wearing skirts was a way for Muggles to celebrate holidays." Robert touched his nose, "He was convinced and was arrested at the police station..."

"It doesn't seem like there's nothing wrong with a Scottish plaid skirt, right?" Hermione laughed dryly, "Oh my God, my dad seemed to have worn it last Christmas..."

"That's enough! Don't you think it's no big deal to expel Ginny?" Harry shouted, tears welling up in his eyes.

The two looked at each other, and Hermione said politely, "Harry, is your memory so bad?"

"What?" Harry looked at the two of them in confusion, "What does my memory have to do with this! If you want to humiliate me..."

"How many times have I told you that Hogwarts will not expel students for such trivial matters! In fact, in the past hundred years, Hagrid was the only one who was expelled for killing people! Do you understand?" Hermione rolled her eyes, "Oh my god, why can't your mind turn around!"

Harry looked at her at a loss, and then at Robert, "But, but Ginny, she attacked Colin, and Mrs. Norris..."

"Well, Ron should have told you that the Malfoy family used to be involved with the Dark Lord, right?" Robert could only explain it clearly to him, otherwise who knows what stupid things this silly boy would do, "In the Dark Lord's case, After his escape, all his well-known followers were imprisoned in Azkaban. However, only the Malfoy family is still operating openly and openly. So, do you know how he got away with it?"

Harry shook his head.

Hermione stared at her big eyes and let out a desperate moan, "Oh my God, Harry, you have been fighting with him for so long and you never investigated his family? At least you know yourself and your enemies!"

Harry lowered his head in embarrassment, obviously aware of his shortcomings, but he reacted quickly and said doubtfully, "Does the Malfoy family have some secret weapon?"

"Uh, can you say that? Does being thick-skin count?" Robert looked at him with a strange face, "In short, they are shamelessly arguing that their family is controlled by the Imperius Curse..."

Harry blinked and his brain finally started functioning normally, "That is to say..."

"No matter when and where, as long as it can be proven that you were controlled by magic." Hermione spread her hands, "then there is no law that can convict you."

Harry nodded in understanding, "So, as long as Ginny reveals that she was under the Imperius Curse..."

"It doesn't have to be the Soul-Taking Curse." Robert said, "There are many magics in black magic that can affect the mind. The Soul-Taking Curse is just the most famous one, and its duration and intensity are guaranteed."

As he said that, he patted the cloth bag on his waist and said, "As long as you give that notebook to Professor Dumbledore, we don't need to worry about the rest."
