Chapter 388 Hals...you Lied to Me!
Chapter 388 Hals, you lied to me!
Peeves had a vague premonition, and when the little wizard in front turned his head, this ominous premonition turned into reality!
"Peeves, hasn't anyone told you that talking too much can easily get you into trouble?" Ivan warned with a frown.
The moment he saw Ivan's face, Peeves instantly remembered his miserable appearance when they met several times before. He let out a scream and quickly turned around and ran away.
However, it was too late now. Ivan threw out a button, raised his wand and pointed lightly.
Under the influence of transfiguration, the button stretched and turned into a long rope under the influence of magic. As if it had life, it automatically wrapped around Peeves' body and tied it up.
Peeves is different from other ghosts wandering around the school. Although he also has some ghost characteristics, he is a special kind of mischievous ghost. He has a physical body and can pick up lighter objects. Naturally, he cannot escape the transformation of Ivan. rope.
"Hals, I actually don't know anything. I haven't seen anything." Peeves said in a panic as Ivan got closer and closer.
Ivan didn't believe what Peeves said. If he believed the other party's lies now, the news that he had opened a secret passage alone and was going somewhere the next day would definitely spread throughout the school!
Although this does not prove that he has been in contact with Sirius, it may have a certain impact on his next actions, so of course Ivan cannot simply let go of this annoying mischievous ghost.
So Ivan waved his wand and pointed it at Peeves, preparing to give it a shot of forgetfulness. Since he used the fear spell to affect Peeves, the forgetting spell to erase the memory should also work. .
"No! Don't do this, Hals! I can promise you that I won't tell anyone anything." Looking at the magical rainbow light dancing on the top of the wand, Peeves shook his head quickly and said tremblingly.
Perhaps Peeves' pleading had an effect. Ivan slowly put down his wand, touched his chin and said hesitantly. "How about this? You answer me a question, and I will untie the rope for you and let you go."
Peeves was overjoyed and nodded sharply.
"You hang out in school every day. Do you know where there are Boggarts in the school?" Ivan asked.
"Boggart, why are you looking for that thing?" Peeves was very surprised, and then he felt that Ivan might be trying to tease someone, and he suddenly became interested, so he had no intention of hiding it and continued carelessly.
"I saw one in Filch's filing cabinet before. You can go look for it there."
Ivan thought for a while and felt that Peeves was not deceiving him. After all, in the entire Hogwarts, except for some secret passages that he did not know about, there were only a few professors and Professor Fei who had not yet searched. Erqi's office.
If Peeves wants to cause trouble for himself, he might as well lie to himself that the Boggart is at Snape's place
"Okay, I've answered all the questions you want to ask, why don't you let me go quickly." Peeves twisted his body uneasily and yelled. He was very worried that Ivan would not keep his word.
"Of course, I am a man of his word! But I will go to Filch to see. You'd better not lie to me, otherwise I think you should understand the consequences." Ivan waved his wand to bind Peeves. The ropes were retracted, turned into buttons again and put into the pocket.
"If that Boggart hasn't been dealt with yet, it must still be there." After regaining his freedom, Peeves looked very happy and chuckled strangely.
But Peeves is a mischievous ghost after all. Even though he had promised Ivan before that he would not tell anyone, he was frustrated in the first few times he came into contact with Ivan. This time he finally caught Ivan's handle. Of course I won't miss this opportunity to cause trouble.
Peeves' blue eyes rolled around, his mind filled with all kinds of crooked ideas.
As for Ivan's subsequent revenge, it doesn't care. At worst, it will find a place to hide for ten days and a half, and it will just walk around Ivan when it sees him in the future.
Just as Peeves was getting happier and happier, a familiar voice sounded behind him.
"Everything is forgotten!"
"Hals, you lied to me!" Peeves only had time to let out a sharp cry before he was hit by a ray of white light, and then he froze on the spot in a daze.
"This is not a breach of contract. I only promised to help you untie the rope and let you go, but I didn't promise anything else." Ivan put away the wand and secretly complained.
At the same time, the system beep in my mind also rang.
[After a period of practice, your Oblivion Spell has been upgraded, currently level 5 (2/1600)]
Ivan was a little surprised. Unknowingly, his Forgetting Curse had reached level 5. No wonder he felt that he was becoming more and more comfortable with this spell recently.
After cleaning out part of Peeves' memory, Ivan took out the Marauder's Map and looked for Filch's movements.
After noticing that Filch was patrolling on the other side of the castle and would not return to the office in a short time, Ivan walked directly there, preparing to confirm whether the Boggart was still there.
As soon as Ivan walked out of the corridor, Peeves woke up and came back. He looked around in confusion and wondered why he was here.
But this doubt was quickly forgotten by Peeves, and he turned to thinking about which little devil from the academy would be better to deal with today.
Ivan on the other side had quietly sneaked into Filch's office.
The place looked a bit messy, with an oil lamp hanging from the dark ceiling and rows of cabinets on the surrounding walls.
On the right side of the room is a log table for office use, and not far from it is a small iron basin. A messy grilled fish is abandoned in the basin, and there is a faint smell passing through it.
Due to time constraints, Ivan went directly to the filing cabinet and opened the cabinets one by one to search. Most of the cabinets contained some parchments recording students' disciplinary violations, as well as strange small items that had been confiscated.
Ivan also saw many familiar prank products such as big dung eggs, boom fireworks, and quick skipping candy in one of the cabinets that read "Confiscated materials, highly dangerous". Apparently, George and Fred looked through them when they were causing trouble. Got into the car and was caught by Filch.
Finally, when Ivan opened the cabinet on the far right, there was no longer a portfolio or prank merchandise, but a flat human head, looking at him with his eyes open.
