Ancient Warlocks at Hogwarts

After dinner, Harry excitedly pulled Andre back to the dormitory. He wanted to show his friends a magical Christmas gift.

When Harry took one of the Three Hallows of Death, which was widely circulated in the wizarding world, from his suitcase and placed it in Andre's hands, he did realize that this invisibility cloak was different from ordinary invisibility magic props. The place.

Andre had the magic potion formula with the characteristics of the invisible beast in his hand, for which he had specially studied this magical animal.

Silver fur is the distinctive feature of the invisible beast, but the texture of the cloak in his hand is definitely not cloth woven from the fur of the invisible beast.

The surface is as smooth as water and feels more like leather.

But with Andre's current knowledge, he couldn't tell what kind of material this Deathly Hallows was made of.

"You can try it on, Andre," Harry said.

Andre nodded, and then placed his entire body under the cloak. This was a more complete invisibility than the Illusion Curse, and even his breath would not be discovered.

Harry said expectantly: "How is it? It's amazing. When Ron told me this was an invisibility cloak, I couldn't believe it. But I still don't know who gave this cloak to me." He told me that this was what my father left for me."

Andre pulled away the invisibility cloak and reappeared in the room. He smiled and said: "This is a very good alchemy tool. Use it well, Harry."

Harry's expression changed a bit. He seemed to hesitate for a moment before he said in a low voice: "During the Christmas vacation, I used this dress to find a mirror. In that mirror, I could see my parents. and grandparents, but Professor Dumbledore told me not to dwell in that mirror."

"That's the Mirror of Erised." Andre naturally knew what was going on, and it seemed that Dumbledore had put the Philosopher's Stone into the mirror: "Blessed with a series of spells such as Legilimency, it can Read what people desire most in their hearts. You should be lucky that Professor Dumbledore put that mirror there. In fact, this kind of magic prop is often used by some dark wizards to protect treasures. Those mirrors usually make people who see it You will never be able to leave its presence, and you will continue to indulge in your own fantasies until you die."

Harry was startled by Andre's words. He didn't know that a mirror could be so dangerous. He could only say: "Professor Dumbledore warned me, and I never looked for that mirror again."

"Well, that's the best, Harry. There will always be some weird things in the wizarding world that are very dangerous to us little wizards. You have to restrain your curiosity." Andre advised, but did not say anything more. Say more.

Many times, it was trouble that got to Harry, and the lightning mark on his forehead was destined to cause trouble.

Soon, Ron and his two other roommates, who were playing wizard chess in the common room, also returned to the dormitory. Thinking that classes would continue tomorrow, none of them were too interested, so they chatted for a while about the holidays. Put on your pajamas and go to bed.

Andre didn't look at the information on the Marauder's Map. He wasn't worried about what Scabbers would do at this time. As long as George and Fred found the detailed records of the accident 11 years ago, he could tell the truth. Connect the clues to uncover Peter Pettigrew.

-------------------------------------

In the next few days, everyone gradually returned to the state before the vacation, and began to complain in the common room every day that the homework left by the professors was too much and too difficult.

George and Fred were also busy participating in the academy's Quidditch team training, which put the investigation into a dilemma.

As a last resort, Andre had to borrow Harry's Hedwig to send a letter to Sophia, asking her to help inquire with the residents of Hogsmeade.

"Andre, have you seen that person's name appearing around Ron these days?" George asked uneasily at Thursday's dinner.

Andre shook his head and said he hadn't seen him again. This was of course to reassure the twins, but in fact Ron had been keeping Scabbers in the dormitory recently. If he hadn't opened the Marauder's Map at night, he would have been watching it by his side. Not even Peter Pettigrew's name.

Fred breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Maybe we should send a letter to tell Dad. He must know who the recipient of the Order of Merlin was 11 years ago."

"No, in that case mother will definitely go crazy. Think about it, with a dead wizard following poor little Ron, mother will definitely rush into the school as soon as possible." George immediately objected.

For a while, the three fell into silence.

"Hey, what are you talking about?" At this time Hermione suddenly came over carrying her dinner plate.

The little witch seems to be dissatisfied with her weight recently. There is only a measly grapefruit and a few bunches of grapes on the plate. She doesn't know how the house elves at Hogwarts got these fresh fruits in the cold winter.

George and Fred looked at each other, not knowing whether to tell Hermione about this, so they both turned their attention to Andre.

Andre thought for a moment and decided to tell Hermione the whole story. After all, as long as Scabbers didn't know that they were investigating him, it didn't matter if so many people knew about it.

So the only ones who really had to hide it were Ron and Harry. After all, these two were inseparable, and without being able to tell that Scabbers was Pettigrew, it was easy for them to leak the news.

"You are saying that a wizard who died 11 years ago and has not yet turned into a ghost appears next to Ron and Harry?" Hermione could hardly suppress her voice: "Why didn't you tell the teacher?"

George and Fred spread their hands and told Andre that they had known that this would be the result of telling Hermione.

"We have no evidence. Do you think Professor McGonagall will believe us just because of a prank map?" Andre had no choice but to find an excuse for his behavior.

But Hermione obviously disagreed with his statement: "But none of you have tried it, and if there is such a wizard and he sneaks into Hogwarts, it will be a danger to all students."

"I have asked a friend to help us inquire about this Peter Pettigrew. If there is evidence that he is not dead and has sneaked into Hogwarts, I will report it to Professor McGonagall. , but not now, and he is the recipient of the Order of Merlin. If we slander him casually, the school might even expel us." Andre threatened the little witch with the thing she was most afraid of.
