Chapter 1438 History and Conjecture

"As you said just now, Harry, this necklace used to be in Borgin-Bock's shop." Hermione said, "From what we have so far, Malfoy is obviously a regular customer of that shop, but that doesn't mean What, there are a lot of people going to Bojin-Boke store, not to mention that this thing was there almost five years ago."

"A month ago, the day we followed him, he went there to buy this thing." Harry didn't care about Hermione's objection, he said stubbornly, "He didn't forget it, so he wanted to go back and buy it!"

"Bought it just to put it in the women's room at the bar?!"

Harry stopped talking, which was really abnormal, if it was Malfoy, there would be no reason to murder Katie.

Ivan can be sure that it is Malfoy, and he has started to act!

This kind of murder method is not clever, but there are many things that Ai Wen didn't think clearly.

Hermione's question is very reasonable, why did he choose to do it in the girls' toilet in the Three Broomsticks? !

Ivan can't remember clearly. He did feel the messy magical atmosphere when he was waiting for Mrs. Rosmerta to bring him a drink at the bar. Was someone casting a spell inside or Malfoy borrowed some black magic item?

He was sure that it would be a black magic item, but now that he thought about it carefully, he was not so sure.

If it was a dark magic item, how did Malfoy put it in the girls toilet?

How did he get that thing away after all that happened?

This shows that he must have an accomplice, who was in the Three Broomsticks at the time...

But if you think about it, maybe there might not be such a person at all.

Because Apparition can also do this, as long as there is a Death Eater to cooperate with him, it is still very easy for Malfoy to do this kind of thing.

Ai Wen struggled for a while, then gave up!

He didn't think too much about such details, as long as he knew that Malfoy was behind the scenes.

A group of people walked across the field, and Professor McGonagall braved the whirling rain and snow to come down the stone steps to meet them.

"Hagrid told me everything just now. He said that the five of you saw what happened to Katie Bell. Please come to my office upstairs immediately!" The pearl necklace next to it, "Wait, Mason, what's floating beside you?"

"It's the thing that caused Katie's problem." Ivan said.

"My God!" said Professor McGonagall nervously. "You can still control it? You did a good job, now put it down, be careful not to touch... No, no, Filch, they are with I'm with you!"

Filch, spy device in hand, came strutting from the hall in high spirits.

Professor McGonagall took out her wand and pointed at the necklace floating in mid-air.

A ribbon emerged from the end of her wand, wrapping it tightly around the necklace, and handing it carefully to Filch.

"Take this necklace to Professor Snape at once, Filch, and don't touch it, just hold the ribbon like this!" she said. "Okay, five of you, come to my office."

Filch went to the basement with the necklace entangled in ribbons, and the rest followed Professor McGonagall up the stairs and into her office. ring.

It was cold in the room, despite the crackling fire in the grate.

Professor McGonagall closed the door, walked quickly around behind the table, and frowned at Ivan, Harry, Hermione, Elaine, and Lini, who was still crying.

"Tell me!" she said sternly. "What's the matter?"

Lini stammered, pausing several times because she was crying uncontrollably.

She told Professor McGonagall how Katie went to the toilet at the Three Broomsticks and how she came back looking a little weird with the unmarked package in her hand; how they argued because she thought Katie One should not promise to hand over an unknown item.

On the way, when the quarrel reached its peak, the two began to snatch the package, and the package was torn apart.

At this point, Li Ni's emotions completely collapsed, and she couldn't say a word anymore.

"Okay, okay." Professor McGonagall said softly, "Lini, you go to the school hospital and let Madam Pomfrey give you some medicine to calm your nerves."

After Lini left, Mrs. McGonagall turned to Ivan, Harry, Hermione and Elaine.

"What happened after Katie touched that necklace?"

"She went up into the air!" said Hermione, "Ivan wanted her to come down, and she started screaming, looking in pain."

"Until then, I realized that Katie was not under the spell, but was affected by a black magic item." Ivan followed up, "Then I saw the necklace in her hand and knocked it out , she fell down. I used a few spells to break the spell, and gave her a bottle of potion to stabilize the spirit, which I brewed myself..."

"You handled it well, Mason. Fortunately, you were there and didn't let the matter continue to deteriorate. The black magic on that necklace, no matter what it is, must have intended to kill Katie on the spot." Professor McGonagall was still in fear. said, "Madame Pomfrey just told me that thanks to your bottle of potion, she has stabilized her spirits. When Professor Snape examines that necklace, we will know what the black magic is on it. Now, Is there anything else you want to tell me?"

Ai Wen felt that there was nothing to say, and his plan was to let the situation develop first.

This is the first time Malfoy has acted, and it is obviously not yet time for Ivan to make a move.

Besides, so what? He has no direct evidence here at all. There are many things about this time, Ivan has not figured it out yet, and it is impossible to convince Professor McGonagall to believe him intellectually.

Hermione also shook her head, let alone Elaine, her mind was not on this at all.

Only Harry was hesitating. He made up his mind and asked, "Professor, can I meet Professor Dumbledore?"

"The Headmaster is out and won't be back until Monday, Potter," said Professor McGonagall, looking surprised.

"Out?" Harry repeated angrily.

"Yes, Potter, out!" said Professor McGonagall sharply, "but I think you can tell me whatever you have to say about this dreadful business!"

Harry didn't answer right away, he seemed to be having a hard time confiding in Professor McGonagall.

Since the beginning of school, his various conjectures about Malfoy have been opposed by Hermione, Ron and even Ivan, but after all, this is just a few of their internal discussions, and now I want to tell these things and tell the professor...

Dumbledore, for all his intimidation in many respects, seemed unlikely to pooh-pooh an idea, no matter how outlandish.

However, this is a matter of life and death, and there is no time for ridicule.
