Wind and Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

Chapter 37 037
Scott stood at the head of the stairs, calmly watching the farce going on in the common room below.

Eddie whispered: "Although Roger looks miserable, I don't know why, I don't want to sympathize with him at all."

"He shouldn't have played games with Miss Dupin," Milton said in his usual tone. "Love should be a romantic and beautiful thing. We can't treat love as a game or make fun of it."

Scott didn't have an opinion like the two roommates did.He only felt that Lisa Duping's words were still watery and flawed, and Roger seemed to be stupid, and he didn't get to the point after talking to her for so long.

However, he had no idea of ​​going up to help either. Lisa Duping was not an easy person to communicate with at first glance, and he always avoided such troubles.

So, it all depends on Roger himself.

Fortunately, Roger is not a real fool. It was just that the sudden "public execution" had too much impact, and he wanted to prove his innocence quickly, which made him somewhat impatient.

Now he seemed to suddenly come back to his senses and asked Du Ping again: "Lisa, tell me. Since you have such a misunderstanding, why didn't you come to question me at that time?"

He stared into Du Ping's eyes, "Why, now that I have changed two girlfriends, you suddenly do such a thing?"

"Listen to him, 'Both have two girlfriends.' That's a real beating," Eddie muttered to Scott and Milton again.

Of course, among the students present at this time, there were not a few boys who muttered like him.

Scott ignored Eddie's murmurs of admiration, and noticed that Lisa Dupin lowered her head again at this moment.She was avoiding Roger's eyes, posing as if she refused to communicate.

"I don't think you thought like this last school year, Lisa." Roger seemed to be afraid to scare the other party, and his tone became more gentle, "Did someone say something to you that changed your mind? ?"

Lisa Dupin just shook her head, not seeming ready to respond to this question.

Roger looked at her helplessly, "Okay, you don't want to say it. Then can you tell me where the black magic item you used to curse the broom came from?"

Lisa Dupin still lowered her head, her messy hair covering her face, she seemed to be ready to fight Roger's question with silence to the end.

Roger scratched his hair in annoyance. He got up and took a few steps back and forth, stopped in front of Du Ping again, and said again, "You don't want to say yes? Lisa. Then tell me, before you go in. When our dormitory cursed my hapless broom, who picked the lock of our dormitory for you?"

The common room became quiet again as Roger asked questions one by one.

Ravenclaw has never been short of smart people.Most of the students had already sensed from Roger's question that this time the incident was not as simple as it seemed.

So they all restrained their expressions of watching the play, and their expressions became serious.

It's just that Lisa Dupin still didn't make a sound.She squatted on the ground and shrank into a ball, shaking her head constantly, looking extremely pitiful.

Roger looked down at the tears dripping on the carpet under her feet, not knowing for a moment whether to continue asking.

He turned around and spread his hands with a helpless expression, looking at Professor Flitwick and Scott at the top of the stairs.

Professor Flitwick had been silent for a while.

He always looked a little dazed when Roger was talking to Du Ping.It seemed that what happened in front of him had a big impact on him.

If Professor Flitwick is a more rational person, he will quickly understand that it is actually very easy to make the right decision now that Lisa Dupin can no longer hide it.

Because there are no other options.

And Professor Flitwick is a smart wizard, it is impossible not to think of this.But he was still struggling.

But that's a respectable aspect of the professor, Scott thought.Although he can't do it himself, it doesn't prevent him from appreciating the kindness of others.

However, when Roger turned around and looked over, Professor Flitwick seemed to finally come out of the tangle and make up his mind.

After making up his mind, Professor Flitwick began to act decisively.

He went down the stairs to Lisa Dupin.

"Miss Du Ping." Professor Flitwick's voice was a little low, not as sharp as usual.

Du Ping couldn't help shaking when she heard Professor Flitwick's voice, but she still didn't look up.

Professor Flitwick paced in place, "Whether it's holding a black magic item or secretly attaching a vicious curse to a classmate's broom, this is a violation of the law."

He said sadly: "You should be glad that you still have a chance, Miss Du Ping. Roger didn't even want to expose you at first. He thought you were too young, and you should thank him for that."

"Now, all the Ravenclaw students are here." Professor Flitwick looked at the other students, "Can anyone tell me, if the Ministry of Magic's Law Enforcement Division learns of this, what will happen to Miss Du Ping? What is the punishment for what you have done?"

"I know, Professor."

A seventh-grade boy stood up and said in a very calm and rational voice: "Since Miss Du Ping's actions did not cause any substantial harm to the victim, the biggest one may be Azka, who is about three months old. Ban in prison, and a fine of 200 Galleons."

At this moment, Lisa Dupin suddenly raised her head and looked at the seventh-grade boy in disbelief.

The boy stretched out his hand to help the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said to Du Ping, "Of course, if you can take the initiative to increase the fine to 1000 gold Galleons, there is a high possibility that you don't have to go to Azkaban."

"Thank you for your answer, Mr. Brown." Professor Flitwick nodded to him, motioning him to sit down.

Before sitting down, Brown said to Dupin again: "My name is William Brown. By the way, the 1000 gold Galleons in exchange for freedom plan I mentioned has another premise - hire me as your defender."

"Do not……"

Lisa Dupin finally felt scared.

She screamed, "No, I'm not going to be in Azkaban!"

Brown shrugged and sat down, not responding to Dupin's shouts.

At this time, Professor Flitwick said to Du Ping: "I said you still have a chance, Miss Du Ping. Remember, if you can prove that you did not play a major role in the process of this incident. Then, things will turn around.”

"me……"

Du Ping's face was pale, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at the corner of the lounge, his eyes locked on Jacob.

"It was Jacob, who helped me pick that lock!" she answered loudly.
