Hogwarts Rising Again

Chapter 135 Hoyle

"Where?" Hugo sat down and asked.

"In the painting! In the painting of the castle! The last time we helped Professor Charles check whether the painting magic of the castle was lost, do you remember this?"

Maureen said quickly: "That's when I heard about the name Hoyle. It was said by a person in the painting."

Mo Lin still remembered that he found that he seemed to be being spied on, and then he was always looking for the feeling of being spied on. He accidentally painted out a sandwich of thirteen wizards who were eating, and finally he also put The picture was taken down, and the cutlery, knives, forks and people inside rolled into a ball. At that time, one of the wizards said angrily:

"You're more annoying than that bastard Hoyle!"

Maureen stood up and said, "That's right, that's when I heard the name Hoyle!"

"Wait, are you saying that the wizard in the painting in the castle knows about Hoyle?" Hugo thought for a while and said, "But they are also people in the painting, so there's nothing wrong with knowing Hoyle, right?"

"Hoyle was originally the person in the comic book, right? The people in the book and the picture can't leave the book, and the last time I heard that wizard's tone, he seemed to hate Hoyle, which means that he must have encountered Hoyle, this Hoyle should not be the person in the comic book, but the person in the castle painting. In case Hoyle... I mean in case, Hoyle is actually the person who was spying on me in the painting at that time What?" Merlin said.

"What does it mean?"

"Hoyle is a character created by Payngade, isn't he? At that time, I felt that I was being watched. That person existed in Payngand's painting. What if that person is Hoyle in Payngand's painting?"

Mo Lin thought quickly, and he felt that he had grasped some key points.

Hugo nodded thoughtfully: "Are you saying that Payngade painted his protagonist in "Wizard Tomorrow" in the picture of a community where Muggles and wizards coexist? That is to say, this Hoyle It’s the person in the painting who wants to tell you the truth!”

"That's right, Hoyle in Payngade's novel is a brave and upright man. He is a wizard who fights against the dark wizard Pickchiev. The matter came out, but was noticed by Professor Charles, he had to gag Hoyle and kill him!"

Mo Lin recalled the meeting of Professor Charles in Diagon Alley a few days before Christmas, and said: "Professor Charles bought black gentian bile at that time, and black gentian bile can prevent people in the painting from leaving the frame. If I think right, When we were inspecting the painting's magic in the castle that day, Professor Charles found Hoyle and removed Payngard's painting, intending to do to Hoyle what he did to Sir Cadogan."

Morin remembered that the painting didn't need to be restored at that time, because the magic had not been lost, but Professor Charles moved him away, saying that he wanted to take it back for research, but Morin always believed that Professor Charles took the painting not just for research. Simple!
Morin continued: "I think Hoyle must have managed to escape at that time, so Professor Charles had to use black dragon bile to trap Hoyle who was fleeing in other paintings of the castle, and make him shut up forever! That explains why Payngade's painting was hung back by Professor Charles not long after."

Morin calmly analyzed: "Professor Charles wants to wait on the sidelines. He must be guarding there all the time to catch Hoyle! Maybe the painting by Payngade has been painted with black gentian! That painting is not Portraits, Hoyle couldn't have escaped into portraits elsewhere like Sir Cadogan did, so he must still be in the castle now, perhaps hiding in one of the castle paintings!"

Hugo suddenly realized.

"In other words, Hoyle may still be alive, and Professor Charles is looking for him." Hugo nodded, and said strangely: "But why do the people in the painting hate Hoyle? Peeves also Scolding him, isn't he a good man?"

"Being a nice guy doesn't conflict with being unlikable, Hugo, have you forgotten Professor Snape? He's a nice guy, but can you tell the students will like him? I've heard Professor Snape was not very popular as a teacher Thoroughly, one of the most unpopular teachers."

Molin thought for a moment, then continued: "Perhaps Hoyle doesn't get along well with those noisy people in the painting, and he may have reported Peeves' troubles to the professor, and Peeves hates them too. He. But Hoyle saw the conspiracy of Professor Charles, so he was going to tell the truth, but unfortunately there was no chance, Hoyle might know that I was investigating this matter and wanted to tell me the truth!"

"Then now we only need to find Hoyle who is hiding in the castle, and we can get the evidence of Professor Charles?" Hugo asked.

They have suspected Professor Charles for so long, but they have not found the most critical evidence. There is only a one-sided testimony by Sir Cadogan, and his testimony is not reliable. From this point of view, Hoyle is very likely to have the most important evidence. evidence of.

As for the mark on Polk's notebook, maybe Pork also noticed something at the beginning, and maybe he saw the painting of Payngade.

"Go! Go and see! Professor Charles put the painting back and waited for Hoyle to fall into the trap. We must find a way to get Hoyle's evidence before Professor Charles finds Hoyle!"

Mo Lin stood up, quickly left the common room, and ran towards the corridor on the seventh floor. At that time, Payngade's painting was hanging on the wall opposite the stairs on the seventh floor. There was no way to get there without a flying broom.

They stood on the fence of the corridor on the seventh floor, looking at Payngade's painting from a distance. Molin was still holding a telescope used in astronomy class. Usually, because he couldn't see the star map, this telescope was very accurate. It's tasteless to him, but now it can finally come in handy.

"I saw the painting and I saw the mark."

Molin held the telescope and kept adjusting the knob to make the scene clearer. The wizard's telescope can adjust the distance by itself, but if you want to see more detailed, you need to do it yourself.

"I saw it too, but there are too many people in this painting, how can I find Hoyle?" Hugo was also adjusting the viewing distance of the telescope.

"I don't know, that person should look the same as Hoyle in the painting "Wizard Tomorrow", right? But he may not dare to come back, maybe he is hiding in other paintings nearby." Molin carefully I searched for Hoyle's trace in that crowded community map, but unfortunately I couldn't find it after searching for a long time.

He pointed the binoculars again at the picture of the meal of thirteen wizards, in which someone had called out Hoyle's name.Now they are continuing to chat and laugh in an orderly manner, enjoying dinner, and the tableware and food on the table are also arranged properly, unlike that time when Maureen shook, the whole room turned into a disaster.

"It would be great if we could go up and ask the thirteen wizards. Maybe they know which painting Hoyle likes to visit most." Molin put down the binoculars and said.

"You have to use a flying broomstick to go up. We are not allowed to fly around in the castle. That's against school rules." Hugo said.

Mo Lin shrugged his shoulders indifferently. He didn't really care about violating the school rules, but he needed to find a time when no one was around. The castle was usually crowded with people. Once he charged up on a flying broomstick, he would definitely be killed. See.

Then just wait until night.

"Good afternoon, what are you two doing here with binoculars?"

Just as Molin and Hugo were looking around in the corridor on the seventh floor with binoculars, Professor Charles' gentle voice sounded behind them, making Molin and Hugo gasp.
