Science and magic at Hogwarts

Chapter 40 Speculation with Blake

The pendant box in Kreacher's hand was extremely gorgeous, and even without a magic test, Kyle could tell that it was protected by countless spells, and these spells were obviously extremely evil.

"It's such a magnificent treasure. It seems that this is the legendary Gaunt's pendant box, but somehow it was acquired by Voldemort," Sirius said. "Kyle, you can try to distinguish what kind of magic is on it, and I can teach you some practical other side magic spells."

But at this time, Kyle's heart fluctuated greatly, and he didn't hear Sirius' words at all.

The moment the pendant box appeared, he had already felt a strong soul wave on the box, which also made him sure that it was Voldemort's Horcrux.

He once inferred that Voldemort had seven Horcruxes, namely the Sorcerer's Stone, the Goblet of Fire, the Resurrection Stone, the Elder Wand, the Invisibility Cloak, the snake named The Chronicles of Narnia, and the one given to him by his parents in Potter's hand. relics, but now the pendant box is obviously not in this range.

In fact, this speculation was overturned when Kyle saw Harry wearing the invisibility cloak, because he detected it covertly at that time, and there was no soul fluctuation on the invisibility cloak, which ruled out the possibility that the invisibility cloak was a Horcrux.

And now the appearance of the pendant box just filled the vacancy of the invisibility cloak, but Kyle no longer dared to believe his inference.

Now that part of it has gone wrong, are the other inferences still correct?
The Chronicles of Narnia and the relics on Potter should be correct. These are the horcruxes that his roommate had clearly told him about in his previous life. It is said that these two horcruxes are the most special.

Now add a pendant box that is already known, and there are still four who don't know what it is.

It can be ruled out that the pendant box appeared in the sixth part. Regulus' experience can be described as a prodigal son turned back and a lonely hero.

In the novel, it will definitely be written in a large amount and become the main character. It is even possible that the main plot of the whole book is the clues left by the protagonist group chasing Regulus and finally discovering the Horcrux.

If you think about it this way, the title of the Half-Blood Prince must not match Regulus’ situation. It’s no problem to call Regulus a prince. After all, he is the heir of a thousand-year-old nobleman, but the Half-Blood Prince will never be able to reach Regulus. on S.

It is not impossible for the prisoners of Azkaban to come, maybe in the future the three of Harry Potter will come into contact with a prisoner who has been released from Azkaban, and then learn about the depths of Azkaban from the prisoner's perspective. The Death Eaters, which lead to Regulus' storyline?
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets book is also not impossible, because the cave described by Kreacher is obviously a closed space, and it seems to be called the Chamber of Secrets.

In addition, since the pendant box was made into a Horcrux, did the other three relics of the founder of Hogwarts also become Horcruxes?
If you think about it this way, in addition to Slytherin's pendant box, The Chronicles of Narnia and Potter's relics, Gryffindor's sword, Ravenclaw's crown, Hufflepuff's gold cup, Philosopher's Stone, flames Cup, Elder Wand and Resurrection Stone, these seven things may be Voldemort's Horcruxes.

The messy conjectures gave Kyle a headache, and he regretted that he disliked Harry Potter as a fairy tale before time travel, so he didn't read it carefully.

After all, in Kyle's eyes, fairy tales are basically equated with the king of stories. If you think about it, you know that the writing must be very naive!
But the experience of this life tells Kyle that the wizarding world is not naive at all!
"Kyle, Kyle, what are you thinking?" Sirius' shout brought Kyle back to his senses, and Black around him looked at him with probing eyes, seeming to be vaguely wary.

"Kyle, what were you thinking just now? You have been staring at the pendant box for a while."

"It's nothing Sirius, just thinking about something from the past."

"Before, Kyle."

"Kreacher, go get the stone statue on the left-hand side of the second row on the first shelf in the storage room."

After hearing Kyle's words, the Blacks all fell silent, and after secretly communicating with each other's eyes, Sirius spoke softly but with a firm attitude.

The strange expressions of the Blacks, of course, were noticed by Kyle, which made him hold his wand quietly:

"Is there a problem, Sirius?"

Sirius didn't answer Kyle's question, but asked him instead:
"Did you feel strange just now, Kyle? Staring at Voldemort's things and meditating, as far as I know, you have nothing to do with Slytherin's relics."

"What do you feel?"

Kyle understood what the Blacks meant, apparently because he was afraid that he would be affected by Voldemort's magic on the locket.

At this time Kreacher had returned to the hall with the stone statue.

This turned out to be a stone statue of Slytherin, and it was obviously a long time ago. It was covered with scratches, and even some of the carved beards were broken.

"Our first ancestor was a student of Lord Slytherin. This stone statue was a small toy made by Lord Slytherin at that time, but even after a thousand years, the effect is still amazing, whether it is memory magic or soul magic. The fluctuation of magic can be detected by this stone statue."

"Kyle, I need you to use the stone statue to detect whether memory magic has been released, or whether it is controlled by some magic. Black's future descendants cannot be affected or controlled by Voldemort!"

"Don't worry, this stone statue will not touch your memory, it will only detect your state, and detect whether you are controlled, read or modified from the magical fluctuations left on your body."

Kyle has understood the concerns of the Blacks at this time, and in order to appease them, he simply and generously accepted the test of the stone statue, and said at the same time:

"What I think is indeed related to the ornaments box, but it's not about the past of the ornaments box."

"Since Voldemort made Slytherin's pendant box into a Horcrux, will he start with the legacy of the other founders?"

Following Kyle's words, bursts of white light flashed on the stone statue, and the Blacks relaxed after seeing this.

"Interesting reasoning, Kyle."

"The sword of Gryffindor is kept in the hands of every Hogwarts headmaster, no matter which house the headmaster came from."

"Phineas, is the sword still in Dumbledore's hand? I haven't heard any rumors of Gryffindor's treasure being lost."

Phineas looked stern, apparently also affected by what happened to Regulus:

"Of course, the suspicion of the sword can be ruled out. I'm sure the sword is still in Dumbledore's hands."

Phineas' words made Kyle relax a bit, ruled out a wrong option, and at least cleared the mess in his mind a little bit.

One person counts the short, and the two count the long, which strengthens Kyle's idea of ​​guiding the Blacks to discuss the plot with him.
