Hogwarts Rising Again

Chapter 214 The Orphanage

Sweet looked at the map displayed on the phone and nodded: "That's right."

"Then I'll take you there to make sure."

Maureen confirmed the roof of the orphanage again, then pulled Sweet, disappeared into the air, and appeared on the roof in a blink of an eye.

There are many quilts hanging here, some worn-out iron shelves with faded paint, many flowers growing, and a rusty antenna in the corner of the fence.Although the roof looks different from the one displayed on Anron's mobile phone, and these specific things cannot be displayed on the mobile phone, the difference is almost the same.

"That's right, it's here." Sweet looked around and was surprised to see the familiar roof. Molin actually apparated here by relying on the phone map.

"Then I'll go back and pick them up." Mo Lin apparated again and brought An Ran and Hugo over.

"Wow, does that mean that as long as you have this Muggle machine, you can travel around the world?" Hugo couldn't wait to borrow An Ran's mobile phone. An Ran's mobile phone has a touch screen, and she patiently taught Hugo how to use it. .

Mo Lin looked at Hugo flicking the screen of the phone awkwardly, and said: "When I go back, maybe I will consider asking Grandpa to buy me a Muggle phone. Although these devices will be disturbed in places with strong magical magnetic fields, as long as Just don’t go to those places.”

Maureen discovered that Muggles are really smart in some places, and their technology is quite advanced. No wonder the Ministry of Magic takes the Muggle Studies course as a compulsory course. Using Muggle technology can make magic more convenient.

It was the first time that Maureen became interested in Muggle stuff.

"Sweet, do you also have a Muggle machine?" Maureen recalled that Sweet was familiar with Muggles.

"I don't have the money to buy a mobile phone, and I don't care for it. I sort of grew up in a wizarding family."

Sweet shook his head, and walked towards the dilapidated stairway. The stairway door was a big iron door painted with green paint. At this time, the door was locked from the inside, but it didn't bother Mo Lin, so he picked up his wand and knocked on it. The door opened.

Sweet led them down the stairs. The gray of the walls of this orphanage is light blue, and many places have fallen off. It's the beginning of the year.

The orphanage was an old one with three floors, and Sweet motioned for them to stop at the corner of the stairs on the third floor.

"Our dean is a very strict person. She doesn't welcome you. It's best not to be discovered by her. You wait here." Sweet went to the third floor and looked around at the stairs. A black-haired The boy comes over.

"Sweet, the dean came to you just now, you'd better be careful, she has a bad temper today," said the boy.

"I see, Hill, I will go to the dean later." Sweet nodded.After Hill walked over, Sweet waved to Maureen and the others, signaling them to come down.

"Is your dean in a bad temper?" Mo Lin asked.

"She treats no one well and doesn't like the job."

Sweet nodded, walked quickly along the corridor on the second floor, and then opened the door of a dormitory to let Mo Lin in.

The dormitory was dim and small, and it felt crowded when they walked in.There was only one bed in the room, and a little girl was lying on the bed, and the little girl seemed to be asleep.The whole room is very stuffy, and there is a strange smell of medicine, which makes people feel quite pungent.

"After she was unconscious, the dean specially arranged for her to come here." Sweet walked to the window and opened a small window to let the smell out.

Maureen waved his wand, blowing a gust of wind, eliminating the smell, and cleaning up the dirty and messy floor.

Sweet sat on the edge of the bed, touched the girl's head, her blunt face rarely eased, and said, "Her name is Winnie, she is only eight years old this year, and when she first arrived at the orphanage two years ago, she was afraid of strangers, so she didn't want to go to the orphanage. Dare to walk around, but always follow me, I don't want her to have an accident."

Sweet looked at An Ran: "Can you see where she is hurt? I can't cure it with magic."

An Ran stretched out her hand and held Winnie's hand. A faint white glow appeared on her hand. The white glow submerged into Winnie's body and kept flickering. The white glow soon flowed to Winnie. on the forehead.

"Huh?" An Ran was a little puzzled.

"What's wrong?" Sweet asked quickly, "Where did she get hurt?"

"She wasn't injured, but..." An Ran didn't seem to know how to answer.

"No injury? Then why is she unconscious? Even a vegetative state is caused by brain damage. Is it the same for her?" Sweet asked nervously.

"No, she seems to be missing something, I can't tell." An Ran touched Winnie's forehead, puzzled.

"What's missing? What do you mean?" Sweet asked.

Mo Lin said: "Sweet, Winnie is very likely to have been damaged by some very powerful magic. An Ran doesn't know much about magic now, so I probably can't explain it clearly."

"Then what should we do?" Sweet looked very depressed.

Maureen thought for a moment: "I'll ask my grandfather to come and have a look. He has more experience, and maybe he can be sent to St. Mungo—eh, that's strange."

Mo Lin seemed to feel something, he clearly felt that something in An Ran was very different from normal people.

"What did you find?" Sweet asked.

Mo Lin said with some uncertainty: "She seems to have lost consciousness, as if someone took away her consciousness, and she became incomplete, not like a person."

"Take away consciousness?" Hugo said in surprise beside him, "I've heard that taking away a person's consciousness from the body is a very evil black magic! Molin, are you sure?"

"That's right, I heard about this situation from my grandfather before. Some black magic is designed to take away people's consciousness." Mo Lin looked at Winnie, "I can feel that she is in this situation now."

"I don't understand, what is taking away consciousness?" Sweet asked, his knowledge of these things was far less than that of Maureen and Hugo.

"Let's put it this way! You should know the Imperius Curse, right? The Imperius Curse is to control a person's consciousness, but this person's consciousness is still in his body. If a person dies, the consciousness will become a soul, that is, a ghost. But you My sister's consciousness is attached to some kind of black magic device to some extent, she is not really dead, she is still alive, but she cannot move freely." Mo Lin explained.

"So the only way to wake her up is—"

"Find that magic device." Mo Lin nodded.

"Lucas!" Sweet clenched his fists, "That magnet must be that magnet!"

Mo Lin felt that things were a bit tricky, maybe it was really the fault of the magnet in Lucas's hand, but now they don't know where Lucas is.

"Speaking of which, how did you know Lucas's whereabouts? Even the staff of the Ministry of Magic couldn't track him down. How did you track him down?" Morin asked.

Sweet gritted his teeth, as if hesitating whether to speak or not.

"Sweet, if you want to save her, you'd better tell me the truth." Mo Lin said.

Sweet was silent for a moment, nodded, and when he was about to speak, suddenly a sharp voice sounded from the corridor outside.

"Sweet! Where did you die? Did you sneak away to see this burden again?"
