Chapter 1439 Harry's Guess

"I think it was Draco Malfoy who gave Katie that necklace, Professor. No ads coming soon," Harry said bravely.

He tried to make his voice sound smoother and more convincing.

Opposite him, the serious expression on Professor McGonagall's face was rapidly changing into consternation and absurdity.

Ivan on the left side of Harry's body covered his forehead with his left hand, as if he had expected him to say that.

Hermione, who was standing on the other side of him, slid her foot on the ground, as if eager to keep a certain distance from Harry; Elaine raised her right hand to her chest and clenched a fist, but Harry was not sure about her position. Whether the response is to support yourself.

He knew that his idea was helpless here, but he did not intend to give up, and was ready to convince Professor McGonagall to believe him.

"That's a serious allegation, Harry!" said Professor McGonagall. "Have you got proof?"

"No, but..." Harry said, and he told Professor McGonagall about the conversation they had followed Malfoy to Borgin-Bock's the day they followed Malfoy to Borgin-Bock's, and their trip to Knockturn Alley The thing about the deep underground world.

Ivan pulled Harry's sleeve secretly, signaling him not to continue talking.

Harry suddenly realized that it really shouldn't be mentioned about the underground world.

After all, they lost Malfoy that day, and met the werewolf Fenrir Greyback in the Underworld.

There would be no end to this matter if he explained it, what he needed to say now was that Malfoy gave the necklace to Katie, there was no need to add extra details.

What's more, Harry has no evidence to prove that there is any connection between Malfoy and werewolves, but the four of them sneaked into the underground world of Knockturn Alley, and the encounter with Greyback sounds very reckless and dangerous. If Professor McGonagall knew, her focus would definitely be on this matter.

"Well, then, the few of us went back!" Harry stopped.

Professor McGonagall didn't notice Ivan's small movements, and she looked a little confused after hearing Harry finish speaking.

"You mean, Malfoy took an item to Borgin-Bock's to have it fixed?"

"No, Professor, he just asked Boggin to tell him how to fix something, and didn't take it with him," said Harry hastily, "but that's not the problem, the problem is that he also bought a thing, I think It's the necklace..."

"You saw Malfoy leaving the shop with a package like that?" Professor McGonagall looked at several people.

"No, Professor, he asked Borgin to keep it in the shop for him..."

"So you suspect that Malfoy bought the necklace from Borgin?" Professor McGonagall asked with a frown.

"Absolutely. I'm sure that necklace is in the window of Borgin-Bock's."

"Wait, Harry!" interrupted Hermione, "There's still something wrong here."

"What's wrong?" Harry asked angrily.

"Well, Ivan and I went late and didn't hear the conversation between Malfoy and Bokin." Hermione analyzed, "But, I remember you and Ron told us that Bokin asked Malfoy if he wanted to put Take things away, Malfoy said no!"

"Because he doesn't want to touch that thing, so needless to say!"

"His exact words at the time were: What do I look like walking down the street with it!" said Hermione.

"Really?" Harry paused, "I don't remember exactly, and even if that's the case, what does it matter?"

"It's a big deal! It proves that the thing he keeps in Borgin-Bock's is either bulky or makes a lot of noise, so he can't walk down the street with that thing. Because he knows, It's sure to get someone's attention." Hermione said aloud, not giving Harry a chance to interrupt her, "and I just remembered that I saw this necklace the other day too, and it was put away by Borgin." In the counter of the shop, I asked about it, remember? When I went in to find out what Malfoy wanted him to keep, I saw the necklace was still there, and Borgin told me the price of the necklace, fifteen thousand A hundred Galleons, he didn't say it was sold!"

"That's because you did it too conspicuously. He found out what you wanted to do within five seconds, so he wouldn't tell you." Harry said, "Also, Malfoy can do it by mail order..."

"Enough!" Hermione was about to open her mouth to retort when Professor McGonagall said angrily, "Thank you for telling me this, Potter, but we can't just because Mr. Malfoy visited the shop that might sell this necklace, Just blame him casually, there are probably thousands of people who have been to that store. What's more, we have stepped up strict security precautions this year, and I don't believe that necklace will enter this place without our knowledge school."

"But……"

"One more thing." Professor McGonagall said in a decisive tone, ending the topic, "Mr. Malfoy did not go to Hogsmeade today."

Harry stared at her blankly, suddenly discouraged.

"How do you know, Professor?"

"Because he is in confinement with me, he has not completed the homework of the transformation class twice in a row." Professor McGonagall said, turning to look at Ivan, "Ivan, what else do you want about this matter? Supplementary?"

"No!" Ivan shook his head.

"Very good!" Professor McGonagall stood up, and she strode past them, "Thank you for telling me these doubts, but I must say that if you plan to go to Knockturn Alley or something more dangerous next time It is best to report in advance. You can go back, I am going to the hospital to see Katie Bell now."

She opened the door of the office, and Ivan, Harry, Hermione, and Elaine walked out of her one by one.

Harry still seemed to be angry because of Ivan and Elaine's indifference, Hermione's rebuttal, and Professor McGonagall's distrust. He went back to the common room angrily, and when Ron came back, he explained this matter to him. The speculation was recounted again.

He hoped to seek support from Ron. Ron was obviously very surprised and full of doubts about this matter, but he didn't agree with Harry's point of view. His focus was on who Katie was going to give the necklace to.

In fact, many people in the school have this potential to be targeted.

Needless to say, Dumbledore and the professors who are serving the Order of the Phoenix, even Slughorn has this possibility.

Voldemort had been trying to pull him over, and he must have been upset to see him side with Dumbledore.

The actual situation should be quite unhappy, because on the bright side, Slughorn, as Voldemort's mentor, is the only one who knows that Voldemort made Horcruxes, the specific number of Horcruxes, and many unknowns about his student years of secret people. Voldemort wanted to keep it secret, and the first one who should be killed was Slughorn...
