Wind and Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

Chapter 435
Just as Scott sat down and took a few breaths, a group of wizards suddenly appeared at the bottom of the cliff, out of the range of the anti-apparition spell.

Professor Flitwick ran up to him the moment he saw him.

"Oh Scott, are you all right?"

"I'm fine, Professor, just a little out of breath," Scott replied.

It was the first time he tried to create such a super-large monster with Transfiguration, and it took a lot of mana and stamina.

Others also came over.

The Aurors are headed by the Mad-Eyed Moody that Scott once met.

Moody leaned on a cane, and his blue magic eyes kept turning around.

He looked at the scorched flames on the cliff, and finally looked at the Fiendfire that was still on the cliff behind Scott.

"Fiendfire."

He waved at some of the young Aurors.

"Go and solve it."

The young Aurors quickly took orders and stepped forward past Scott and Professor Flitwick.

Scott was a little curious about how they were going to extinguish Fiercefire, so he turned to look.

At this time, Mr. Weasley, who was originally behind the crowd, ran over.

"Oh, Scott, you're fine."

He said kindly to Scott.

"Sorry, Mr. Weasley, I'm a little out of breath right now." Scott apologized for not being able to stand up, "And, thank you, of course, and Bill."

Mr. Weasley waved his hand nonchalantly, "You're welcome, kid, it's a pity we're a little late."

Scott shook his head.

At this moment, the sound of rock cracking came from behind him.

He looked back, only to realize that the way the Aurors dealt with Fiendfyre was to cut a layer of rock and throw it into the sea.

Tee, Tee, Tee.

Moody walked over step by step on crutches.

"There were three dead in total, two of them were prisoners who escaped from Azkaban a few days ago, and the last one has been reduced to ashes."

He stared at Scott with that terrible magic eye.

"You killed them?"

"Yes." Scott nodded.

"Amazing." Moody suddenly grinned. "Boy, what grade are you in now? Have you ever thought about becoming an Auror after graduation?"

"Eh?"

Scott was waiting for him to ask what happened, but he didn't expect to be stunned for a moment when he heard such words.

Moody smacked his lips in displeasure, "Why, don't you think of becoming a glorious Auror, active in the front line against dark wizards?"

"Do not……"

Scott was about to speak, but was interrupted by him again.

"Okay." His tone suddenly became very serious, "After all, three people died, and it is not yet possible to judge that you are completely innocent, so let me tell you what happened."

"Ok."

Scott began to speak very cooperatively.

It starts with getting a phone call from Michael.

However, as soon as his narration started, it was interrupted again.

"Mobile phone? Is it a new Muggle invention? A phone that you carry with you, without a phone line? It's amazing..."

Mr. Weasley's eyes widened, clearly interested in the phone.

"Don't get in my way, Arthur!"

Moody gave him a savage look until he shut his mouth.

Scott gave Mr. Weasley an apologetic look, and continued to talk about his experience of the day.

He didn't add oil and vinegar, and just finished the story of how he returned to the small town of Hastings because of a phone call and fought the three wizards.

However, apart from Professor Flitwick, who knew about his strength, everyone else showed strange expressions after hearing his account of the battle, as if they were listening to a fabricated story.

"Oh Scott, you should have reported to the Ministry of Magic as soon as you heard the news of the destruction of the house, the Aurors will deal with such cases." Mr. Weasley spoke first again.

Scott explained, "Because I'm not sure if it's a wizard or not, so I want to come back and check first."

Moody asked, "Can Transfiguration really do what you said?"

Scott nodded.

A few black crows flew down from the sky, and flames suddenly burst out of their bodies.

After they flew around the crowd, the flames on their bodies suddenly subsided, and they opened their mouths to spit out several thin lines of fire.

Although the fire wires looked slender, they were extremely hot and intersected with each other, drawing several scorched black marks on the ground.

"This is really unprecedented."

Watching Firecrow's performance, Moody's normal eye stared as round as his magic eye.

"After identification, the scars on the bodies of the two deceased were indeed caused by the penetration of such a fire wire." An Auror who had just checked the corpse said.

Moody nodded.

"Now, go and see your house."

He spoke to Scott commandingly.

Scott nodded, barely stood up, and Mr. Weasley quickly grabbed his arm.

Moody left the three Aurors on the cliff to do the aftermath of the body, and the group headed towards the residential area where the Trollopes lived.

They meet another team of wizards along the way.

"They're members of the Contingency Reversal Team," said Mr. Weasley softly, who was supporting Scott.

A middle-aged wizard said to Moody: "There was too much movement. There were 37 witnesses."

While speaking, he glanced at Scott.

"Several people saw a fire-breathing dragon appearing by the sea, and even a Muggle took a photo!"

Mr. Weasley told Scott, "They're responsible for erasing the Muggles' memories."

"Sorry to trouble everyone," Scott said.

"It's nothing." The middle-aged wizard shrugged, "This is our job."

After saying this, he took the members of the accident reversal team to Apparate and left directly.

The rest of the group moved on and came to Scott's door.

Moody walked directly into the courtyard with a few Aurors and inspected the house for a while.

After walking out of the house, Moody said to Scott: "It seems that you are not lying, this house was indeed destroyed by magic."

He looked back at the dilapidated house and waved his hand.

"Now, come with us to the Ministry of Magic."

Scott had no objection.

He was led by Mr. Weasley, and came to the outside of the Ministry of Magic building in London through Apparition, and then followed the group to the Auror Command on the second basement floor.

During this time, both Professor Flitwick and Mr. Weasley were with him.

But upon reaching Auror Command, they were all kicked out by Moody.

Scott sat alone in a small room, watching Moody walk in through the door.

The formal interrogation began.

Moody started asking for many details.

Scott didn't want to hide it at all, so he answered all the questions.

This process took a long time, and Moody, the old Auror, asked about the whole incident several times.

Scott forced himself to be patient, answering repeated questions from time to time.

Moody checked his wand in detail again, and played back the magic he used with a flashback spell, before finally asking Stryllner's motives for planning this attack.

"I want to know why Idrik Strielner attacked you with two relatives who just escaped from prison."

"I think it's because he hates me..."

Scott told honestly about the origins of his conflict with Strillner in the past at school, the two duels in the dueling club.

"Just because of the failure of the duel?"

Hearing the answer, Moody frowned.

"It wasn't just because I beat him," Scott said. "It was because I, a fourth-year Muggle-born, beat him in front of everyone, a pure-blood seventh-year."

He talked again about the attack on the viaduct, about the [waste] he left on Stryllner's forehead.

"Anyway, he hasn't messed with me since then, and I don't know that he has been obsessed with these things until the incident when Elijah Carro sneaked into Hogwarts and attacked me..."

"You mean, the time Elijah Carro attacked you, it was because Stryerner gave him information so that he could grasp your movements?" Moody said in a deep voice, "But you never said it before. "

"Caro told me that himself, but I have no proof," Scott said.

Moody's magic eye stared at him for another moment before looking away.

He stopped asking questions, but recorded something on a piece of parchment with a quill.

"I didn't break the law, Mr. Moody." Scott asked, "My behavior should be self-defense. Of course, I used legal spells during the battle."

"Wrong!" cried Moody, "Don't forget, you're an illegal Animagus!"

"Oh... I just learned it not long ago. It's this summer vacation, and I haven't had time to register. All the Hogwarts professors can testify for me." Scott said quickly.

"Better so."

Moody's magic eyes rolled around and stared at Scott again.

But he didn't dwell on the Animagus issue.

"But you're a little weird kid."

A ferocious smile appeared on his face covered with terrifying scars.

"A student at Hogwarts, an underage wizard, why are you always in trouble? I dare say that more accidents have happened to you than the boy who survived Harry Potter."

"About this, I also really want to know why." Scott said with a wooden face.

"If you're really okay..."

Moody was still staring at Scott.

"This may be the unique fate of geniuses. Every genius who can finally affect the magic world grows up with bloody storms."

He opened his mouth and giggled, looking even scarier.

Scott didn't know what expression to respond to, so he could only continue with a wooden face.

"You can go." Moody put away the smile on his face.

Scott stood up and thanked him politely.

As he walked out of the room, Moody spoke again.

"Although it seems that you are innocent for the time being, I don't fully believe you. If I have time, I will continue to investigate you, kid."

Scott didn't respond, and walked out of the small room without stopping until he walked out of the office of the Auror Command.

Both Professor Flitwick and Mr Weasley were waiting for him in the corridor.

"Professor Flitwick, Mr Weasley."

Scott once again solemnly thanked the two of them.

Professor Flitwick looked a little sad, but he patted his arm reassuringly.

"I'm sorry, since the past, such things are still happening." The professor shook his head with regret, "I don't know when Hogwarts students will stop hating each other."

Scott whispered, "Professor, I'm sorry..."

"Oh, I know that's not your fault, Scott." Professor Flitwick smiled at him somewhat reluctantly.

Mr. Weasley also patted Scott on the shoulder, "With one-on-three, it's impossible to show mercy, and it will kill you instead."

Professor Flitwick quickly cheered up and asked Scott, "By the way, where should you go now? The summer vacation is not over yet, oh, maybe you should go back to your parents. Of course, you can go back with me." Stay at Hogwarts temporarily, and I will send you out of England later."

"Come to my house." Mr. Weasley issued an invitation, "Fred and George often mention you at home. If they hear what happened today, they will be very worried about you. You also made an appointment to watch the Quidditch World Cup together. The final, isn't it?"

After thinking about it, Scott readily accepted Mr. Weasley's invitation.

After saying goodbye to Professor Flitwick, he was led by Mr. Weasley to travel through the space with apparition and came to Weasley's house.

"This is it, welcome to the village of Ottery San Catchpole, this is my home, we call it The Burrow."

Standing at the door of the crooked house, Mr. Weasley cheerfully introduced to Scott.

"Oh..." He looked up, "At this time, maybe everyone is already asleep."

He pushed open the door of the house.

"Of course, those troublemakers Fred and George may not be asleep yet... Molly, dear?"

"Oh honey, you're back."

Mrs. Weasley's voice came, and she didn't seem to be asleep yet.

"It's too late, I'm a little worried..."

"Molly, we have a little visitor."

Mr. Weasley entered the house, revealing Scott standing in the doorway.

"Oh... it's you, honey."

Mrs Weasley clearly remembered him.

"Excuse me, Mrs Weasley."

"Scott, you're welcome."

Mrs. Weasley walked up to Scott and gave him a warm hug.

At this moment, there was a sound of running on the wooden stairs of the Burrow.

"I think I heard Scott's name."

Fred and George, who were in pajamas, ran down the stairs one after another, and both showed surprise expressions when they saw Scott.

"Hey, it's really you!"

"Welcome as a guest, brother."

"Your brother is me!"

"Friends can also be called brothers!"

The two ran up to Scott while arguing and shook hands with him one by one to express their welcome.

Mrs. Weasley, who was pushed aside, glared at them with a tigery face, "You two... you really didn't sleep well!"

"Please, Mom!"

"It's a free summer vacation now!"

The twins don't care.

Mrs. Weasley still wanted to teach the two of them a lesson, and Scott's stomach made a hungry cry at the right time.

"Oh honey, are you hungry?"

Mrs. Weasley immediately shifted targets.

"Sorry, I couldn't have dinner." Scott said with some embarrassment.

"Poor kid, just wait, I'll make something to eat right away." Mrs. Weasley immediately turned and walked towards the kitchen.

"Thank you." Scott thanked quickly.

Mr. Weasley said with a smile, "Oh, it's okay, I happen to be hungry too."

"Mom, I want too."

"And I!"

Fred and George also raised their hands positively in response.

The two took Scott to the dining table and sat down together, staring at him with both eyes.

"I figured something must have happened."

"Scott actually came to our house one night with Dad."

"Uh……"

Scott didn't know what to say, and turned to look at Mr. Weasley.

"The kid was attacked." Mr. Weasley sat down on the other side of the dining table. "I had nowhere to go after being questioned by the Aurors, so I brought him back."

"Assault?"

"who is it?"

The twins widened their eyes in surprise.

"Strierna, there are two black-robed wizards I don't know." Scott replied.

The twins who heard the answer thought for a while before remembering who Strielner was.

"The Slytherin you beat twice?"

"I'm not surprised by that answer, obviously, he's always held a grudge against you."

"I didn't expect to find a helper."

"Slytherins are always so mean!"

Mr. Weasley added: "Those two wizards in black robes are Death Eaters who escaped from Azkaban a few days ago."

Fred and George who heard the news were even more excited.

"Oh, damned Strylner!"

"He really got mixed up with those Death Eaters!"

Out of righteous indignation, they alternately output passionately, cursing Stryllner incessantly.

Hearing this, Scott couldn't help feeling sorry for Stryllner, who had turned into ashes.

"Okay." Mr. Weasley clapped his hands. "This matter is over, and your friend is safe and sound."

For some reason, he didn't say that Scott had killed the three.

Scott also talked about Bill's help in this matter.

"Thanks to Bill for notifying Mr. Weasley in time..."

The attention of Fred and George was immediately attracted by this matter.

"Yes, we are all members of the League of Scholars and can contact each other through the [Book of Prometheus]..."

Scott took out his identity gold card, activated [Book of Prometheus], ​​and demonstrated it for them.

Fred and George didn't like the League of Scholars, a magical association named after scholars, but they were very interested in [Book of Prometheus].

The two picked up Scott's [Book of Prometheus] and tried to contact Bill.

Bill quickly responded.

He has been a little worried about the outcome of the incident on Scott's side.

Fred and George were very excited and happily chatted with Bill using [Book of Prometheus].

At this moment, Mrs. Weasley brought hot food.

After a late-night snack, Mrs. Weasley arranged for Scott, who was full, to a room on the third floor.

"This is Charlie's room."

"But it's free now."

"We live next door!"

Fred and George enthusiastically introduced to Scott, but were sent to bed by Mrs. Weasley.

After taking a shower and putting on his pajamas, Scott was just about to go to bed when Fred and George sneaked into the room with a lamp again.

"Hey, I think we can keep talking."

"About your fight with Stryllner."

The magic lamp was placed on the floor, and both Fred and George sat down on the floor beside the bed.

Scott yawned. "Maybe tomorrow..."

"No, we can't wait to find out."

"In the end what happened."

"Okay." Scott sat cross-legged on the bed, "Those three guys are dead, I did it."

"Oh……"

Both Fred and George opened their mouths.

Scott rested his chin on his hands, looking at them calmly.

After a long time, Fred, who had reacted, asked hesitantly, "Should I say you did a good job?"

"It should be...these are Death Eaters. If they don't kill them, Scott will be killed?" George's tone was also a little uncertain.

"It's really well done!" Fred nodded affirmatively.

"Good job, buddy!" George gave a thumbs up.

"Thank you."

Seeing that they were not reluctant to accept it, Scott laughed.

Fred and George accepted the news that Scott killed his opponent, and began to ask about the incident again.

Scott had to tell it again...

The next morning, when Scott was woken up by various noises, he realized that Fred and George hadn't gone back to their room, but were huddled together on the floor in front of his bed.

"Mom! Fred and George aren't in the room!"

He heard Ron yelling from outside the door.

"Look again! Breakfast is about to begin!"

Mrs. Weasley's angry voice carried the same force across the floor.

So Fred and George were woken up too.

The two rubbed their eyes and looked at their own situation, both a little dazed.

"Fred! George!" Ron was still shouting.

"Oh, here we are!"

"Little Luo Luo!"

Fred and George shouted at the top of their voices too.

"Don't call me little Luo Luo!" Ron pushed open the door violently, "You guys are hiding in Charlie's room, I want to tell mom..."

"Oh, Scott? What are you doing here?"

He looked at the three people in the room in surprise.

"Good morning, Ron."

Scott waved.

"Morning...good morning." Ron's expression was a little awkward, "Breakfast is ready, come down quickly."

Fred and George laughed.

"Now even our friends know."

"Little Luo Luo is just a little boy who likes to complain to his mother."

"To shut up!"

Ron blushed and ran away.

At the breakfast table, Scott also saw Percy and Ginny.

Percy welcomed Scott's arrival solemnly.

Scott cheered up and exchanged a few words with him.

But the "official" atmosphere created by Percy was quickly broken by others.

Because apart from him, the other members of the Weasley family behaved very casually.

Ginny also showed great generosity, and specifically mentioned to Scott that Luna's family also lived in the same village, and they often played together.

only……

She also quickly broke through the teasing of Fred and George.

"The difference is huge."

"what?"

"Why wasn't our little sister so talkative when Harry came to visit?"

"Since Scott isn't her idol, it doesn't make her feel ashamed?"

"Shut up!" Ginny roared in the same way as Ron.

In short, there were only a few people, but the dining table was extremely lively.

Finally, under Mrs. Weasley's strong suppression, they finished their breakfast quietly.
