Chapter 253 Time

"Obviously, the Ministry of Magic has done nothing. It's as if... they are deliberately allowing these time turners to be loaned out and then damaged, or rather... disappear."

Hermione swallowed nervously. Bell's tone made her feel as if he was telling a ghost story.

Although Hermione encounters ghosts in Hogwarts Castle almost every day, those amiable ghosts cannot weaken her fear of ghost stories.

"So, what exactly are you trying to say?"

Professor McGonagall was a little impatient. The anxiety in her heart was tormenting her all the time. Now she just wanted to quickly find the list of students who had used the time turner.

Professor McGonagall believed that she would be able to find that roster!

She must find it too! ! !

Bell didn't pay attention to Professor McGonagall's urging. He saw the old professor's anxiety.

“The following content is just my personal speculation and may not necessarily be facts.

The time is only now. The so-called past and future are just subjective perceptions of us humans and do not exist in objective reality.

Therefore, when a person uses a time turner to go back to the past, the person will be stripped out of the world on the temporal level and lost in time.

Since it is stripped off on a temporal level, all traces of this person's past existence in this world will be stripped away together. As a result, no one will remember him anymore, and no one will even be aware of his disappearance.

The man becomes lost in a timeline of his own creation. Everything that happens on this timeline is what he thinks should happen.

As for those things that even he himself, deep down in his heart, did not believe would happen, it would naturally not happen.

The timeline was born due to the use of the Time Turner, and finally disappeared due to the death of the user.

I don’t know if the people and objects in those timelines really exist, or are they just projections of time? Although it doesn't matter to the lost. "

Bell took out a bottle of Coke and took a sip. After talking so much, he felt a little thirsty.

The reason for this speculation is precisely because Bell watched "Harry Potter" in his previous life.

He didn't know who that timeline came from and why it was captured. But based on the content, the timeline should have been created after Harry Potter was born.

Maybe the owner of the timeline is a Death Eater who is afraid of Dumbledore and Voldemort?

After all, most Death Eaters are pure blood, and it is normal for them to have one or two time turners at home.

"However, although there are few, there are still some records that clearly state who used the time turner and when."

Professor McGonagall retorted palely. She didn't believe it, or rather, she didn't want to believe Bell's speculation.

"Yes, you are right. According to my investigation, there are three named people in total, and all three of them are dead.

But in my opinion, the cause of death of two of them was not due to the use of a time turner, but rather like homicide. "

After all, although the number of time turners is not small, it is far from the point where wizards have one per person. So time turners are still very valuable.

Therefore, it is simply not normal for someone to plan a murder or two just because they are greedy for a time turner.

As for the bizarre situations that happened at the scene?

Just kidding, don’t forget that this is England, the hometown of Sherlock Holmes.

I don’t know how many people grew up reading "Sherlock Holmes". Isn't it normal for one or two bizarre secret room murders to happen?

Not to mention, wizards also have magical powers that can help them do many things that Muggles cannot imagine.

What? You ask why Bell was able to detect the abnormality all of a sudden even though no one else had suspected it for so many years?

Whether anyone else suspects this Bell is not certain.

As for why Bell was able to discover the anomaly at once...

Are you kidding, do you really think that the hundreds of episodes of "Death Schoolboy" he watched in his previous life were for nothing?

He has seen even the most outrageous murder cases!

By the way, I don’t know if the ‘Death Schoolboy’ has been caught and brought to justice? Bell felt unhappy all over when he thought of the other party's proud face.

Those police officers are really useless. Dozens or hundreds of people have died. Every time someone dies, that elementary school student is present. Do you still need to think about who the culprit is? How could there be so many coincidences!

Ahem, let’s get down to business…

"As for the death of the last Mr. Nizar Petrov, it further verified my guess.

The account of Mr. Petrov’s death scene is:

‘He suddenly appeared in Hogsmeade and aged and died rapidly, as if hundreds of years had passed in an instant. Beside him, there was a damaged time turner. ’

First of all, after my investigation, no one knows when Mr. Petrov disappeared. No one even realized he was missing until he suddenly appeared.

Secondly, about the manner of his death, and the damaged time-turner next to him. I speculate that Mr. Petrov should have spent hundreds of years in the timeline he created.

In the end, because the time turner reached its limit and was destroyed, the timeline died, and Mr. Petrov was able to return to the real world. "

Looking at the time turner placed on her desk, Hermione felt a shudder. She silently moved her chair back.

If Bell's speculation is true, doesn't it mean that anyone who uses a time turner is destined to die?

Hermione had no interest in spending her life in an imaginary world.

'Luckily Bell is here. ’

Hermione thought thankfully.

"No! This is impossible!"

Professor McGonagall shouted out of control.

If Bell's speculation is true, doesn't it mean that the students at Hogwarts who once used the time turner no longer exist in this world! ?

You know, she became the vice principal of Hogwarts many years ago. Most of those time turners were guaranteed by her and handed over to those students with her own hands!

Isn't this equivalent to killing those outstanding students with her own hands?

"If all this you say is true, then why don't you make your findings public!?"

Professor McGonagall asked Bell sternly.

Shrugging, Bell said:

"These are just my speculations, Professor. I have no evidence to prove that my speculations are correct."

Professor McGonagall couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when Bell said that there was no evidence to prove his speculation.

She just said, how could something so outrageous happen?

Besides, Menethil is just a 13-year-old brat. She would actually believe the random thoughts of an underage brat? This is so stupid!

Professor McGonagall was amused at her earlier nervousness.

"and!"

However, before Professor McGonagall could completely relax, Bell continued:

"Is the Ministry of Magic really unaware of this? Or is Professor Dumbledore really unaware of this?"

A slightly sinister smile appeared on Bell's face.
