Chapter 147

When Scott woke up, he found that the bedroom was empty.

He lifted the quilt from his body and sat up, only to realize that he didn't even take off his clothes, shoes and socks.

Thinking of the scene before falling asleep, I am afraid that Roger or Eddie helped him cover the quilt.

He couldn't help but rubbed his temples, took out his pocket watch and looked at it, it was already afternoon.

Looks like I missed another day of class.

At this time, although his spirit had been restored through sleep, his body was limp and a little weak.

At this time, the door of the dormitory opened, and Eddie ran in with a newspaper.

"you're awake!"

He ran up to Scott, waving the newspaper in his hand, and handed it to him.

"Come on, today's newspaper!"

"Ok?"

Scott reached for the newspaper and didn't read it for a while, but asked him, "Have you visited Milton? How are they doing?"

"It's okay." Eddie waved his hand, "Milton and the others are already awake, and Roger is staying with his girlfriend in the school hospital."

"That's good."

Scott lowered his head, unfolded the "Daily Prophet" in his hand, and looked at the headlines on the front page.

Dumbledore's Gross Dereliction of Duty!Many Hogwarts students were injured and two wizards died! "

This title...

Scott raised an eyebrow.

The angle is so strange.

He quickly read the content of the report.

[This newspaper's special correspondent Rita Skeeter reports.

Last night, a shocking event happened at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry!

The incident left dozens of students unconscious and two adult wizards tragically dead!

It is reported that the two adult wizards who died were Brandon Yaxley, the heir of the Yaxley family, and Gilderoy Lockhart, a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

The viciousness of this incident is creepy, and the author has learned about the situation for the first time...

...According to a student at the school, students from various colleges suddenly left their dormitories last night, and were later found lying unconscious in the school hospital...

The cause of death of the two adult wizards is still unknown!

What have they been through?
Has Hogwarts been terrorized by dark wizards?
Why did Brandon Yaxley, who did not hold any position at Hogwarts, die mysteriously at school?

Does the ancient Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry still have the power to protect all students?

As the greatest wizard in this world, Dumbledore, did he make such a major mistake because of his old age?

Up to now, the Ministry of Magic and the Hogwarts school have still not given any explanation on this matter!
It is reported that the Yaxley family is deeply saddened by Brandon's death, and they said they have filed a lawsuit against the Wizengamot.

Faced with this situation, the author upheld the attitude of pursuing the truth and serving the public, and went to Hogwarts several times for interviews, but was firmly rejected.

Is there any hidden secret in it?

As a journalist with a conscience, the author believes that a great reputation is not an excuse to cover up mistakes. Journalists have the right to interview, and wizards need to know the truth!
The Ministry of Magic should also carefully consider whether to continue to appoint an elderly man who has repeatedly made mistakes to continue to take on the task of educating the future of the wizarding world.

For the safety of the students and to reassure the wizards, the author has made up his mind to conduct a follow-up investigation to restore the truth.

Wizards, please continue to pay attention to the follow-up report written by Rita Skeeter. ]
"Tsk."

Scott put away the newspaper.

Well, it's that Rita Skeeter woman again, and she's a real fire-starter.

Now Dumbledore is under a lot of pressure.

Scott suspects that the Ministry of Magic will definitely try to suppress the news of Medea, or that it will not believe in Medea's existence at all.

They will transfer all the pressure to the old headmaster.

This is also the method adopted by the Ministry of Magic after Voldemort's resurrection in the "Original Book".

After all, what the Minister of Magic needs is always the superficial stability of the magic world, even if it's deceitful.

But Scott himself was not without doubts.

Dumbledore's performance last night can be described as very broken.

Whether it was the death of the two wizards or Medea's escape, he didn't have time to stop them.

On the contrary, when Medea was telling the story, he listened with gusto.

This seems to be suspected of serious paddling.

Of course, Scott just thought about it, and didn't point it out directly in front of Dumbledore.

He didn't want to get involved in such troubles.

In his opinion, whether Dumbledore really missed it or did it on purpose, it's best not to involve himself in this matter.

Although he can be regarded as the main party involved in this matter, he is just an innocent 14-year-old student!

His main concern now was Ravenclaw's next mission and the gift Medea left him.

Thinking of this, he looked up at Eddie, "Eddie, is there any Auror from the school today to investigate?"

"Maybe." Eddie shrugged, "but I don't see it."

"Even you haven't heard the news? It must not have come." Scott concluded.

He felt that he was very hungry, so he took some biscuits from the cabinet and ate them.

"Anyway, Principal Dumbledore didn't show up at school today." Eddie grabbed a biscuit and said while eating, "No one knows where he went."

Scott was a little surprised. Aurors didn't come to the school to investigate such a big thing?
This is also very unreasonable, and it seems to have something to do with Dumbledore's departure.

Did Medea take over the Ministry of Magic?
Scott diverted his mind and guessed wildly.

In fact, the current situation made him find this calm a little strange.

Of course, it was a good thing for Scott that the Aurors didn't come.

Because if Auror came to the school to investigate, he would definitely ask one of the parties involved for questioning.

This kind of thing he can avoid.

He knew very well that if there were too many such things, it would not be a good thing for him.

Even if I am judged innocent every time, and I can get out unscathed every time, it will definitely arouse dissatisfaction and suspicion from others.

Scott doesn't want to be told, "you are everywhere".

Scott sighed, then asked Eddie, "What's everyone saying at school now?"

"You can say anything."

Eddie shook his head.

"Many people know what happened in the classical music club, and they also guessed that what happened yesterday was related to it. It's just that they don't know the existence of Medea, and they are just guessing."

"Did the professor tell you to hide it?" Scott asked again.

He felt that Eddie and the Weasley twins might have had a story meeting in the Great Hall if the professor hadn't asked for it.

Eddie nodded, "Professor Flitwick told us last night, and Professor McGonagall told us again today."

He thought for a while, and then said: "I didn't expect that this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor also... I heard that even the corpse disappeared, and many girls in the school were crying for him."

Scott heard the words and remembered the death of Lockhart and Yaxley last night, and felt that the biscuits in his hand were not fragrant for a while.

"So... what happened to you in the music room after last night?"

Eddie suddenly leaned in front of Scott and asked curiously.

"I've asked Milton, but he doesn't know anything."
