The White Lord Professor at Hogwarts

"A known:

1. There are snakes at the crime scene;

2. Research report on comatose students;

3. It may be related to the Halloween incident. "

Ricardo carefully wrote this sentence on the paper.He was ready to collect his thoughts.

"Connecting, starting with the earliest Halloween incident..."

After experiencing the profiling incident, Ricardo clearly realized that the guy who wandered around on Halloween and stared at him dizzy was most likely a basilisk.

So... was it the basilisk... that made them like this?

No, it's not very similar... When the basilisk's sight is directed at a human, that person will definitely die, and this is just a coma...

But... if it's a basilisk... such an ancient creature...

Ricardo picked up the book "Prohibition of Domesticating Animals for Experiments" - this was one of the few books that recorded the basilisk.

Is this...authentic?

Could it be that someone made a controllable basilisk that could cause coma, and then started testing it in schools?It seems possible.

After all, this is Hogwarts, the center from Wizarding World War I to World War II. According to last year's accident, the principal is a voodoo breeder. Even if the mastermind behind the scenes is Dumbledore, Ricardo finds it understandable.

Therefore, the murderer's weapon may still be a basilisk.The second point does not disprove this possibility.

——No, Ricardo crossed out the term "basilisk" in his notebook.It doesn't matter at all, whether the coma is due to the basilisk or something else such as a curse, this is an issue that should be considered when solving the problem, and now it is time to investigate the cause and find the person who caused the trouble.

He was a bit biased just now. Whether it was the basilisk or the person who knocked out the student, he... shouldn't be afraid of it.

Okay, the next thing he needs to think about is...

There are still many clues, such as the lost diary, the underground secret room, someone's abnormality...

"Dong dong."

Ricardo raised his eyebrows: "What a coincidence? Please come in."

"It seems you know I'm coming?"

The old man with a white beard walked into Ricardo's office carelessly, pulled out a chair, and sat across from Ricardo.

"I don't know," Ricardo spread his hands, but his mind was working quickly, "But no matter what, it won't do anything good if you come."

"Oh my God, I don't even dare to speak like that in front of Principal Dumbledore!" He looked surprised, "To be honest, I believe we will get along very well in the future!"

"So what are you here for, my respected 'Principal Dumbledore'?" Ricardo's tone increased slightly when he said "Principal Dumbledore", "To protect the peace of Hogwarts?"

"Actually, that's true," he was still smiling. "For a tomorrow without tears and for the safety of students, the great Principal Dumbledore is here."

"Then should I let you listen to me say thank you?" Ricardo rolled his eyes, "Because the world is more beautiful with you?"

"You're welcome, it's just as it should be." He waved his hand.

"Okay," Ricardo knocked on the table, "Let's get down to business. What are you looking for me for? Let me tell you first, I will never cooperate with you on anything that endangers my safety and the safety of my students - even if it is to train students. .”

What does "Dumbledore" want from him?Ricardo had been thinking about this problem from the time he entered the door until he went off topic, but in the end, he still couldn't figure it out.

But he was safe anyway.After all this was his room and this was school.

"Headmaster Dumbledore said that when there are some emergencies in the school, I can communicate with you."

"I will investigate this, but please allow me to find out for myself..."

Before he finished speaking, the face of "Dumbledore" in front of him suddenly distorted, and in an instant, the face of an adult man appeared in front of Ricardo.His eyes were deep and his wrinkles were slightly visible, but from his appearance and temperament, you could tell that he was a handsome nobleman in his youth.

Ricardo frowned at first, and then smiled as if he thought of something fun.

"Mr. Headmaster... what a wonderful man you are. Don't you think so, Sirius Black?"

He used a transfer charm to conjure up two servings of juice and raised a glass in greeting to Sirius.

"It seems that you already know who I am? Or has Principal Dumbledore told you a long time ago?" Sirius grinned, took another glass of juice and drank it in one gulp.

"Do you need me to say 'wow'? Sorry, I have missed the best time. Mr. Black who is still loyal to the Dark Lord after his death - this is the library's evaluation of you."

"I don't think you behave as you should when seeing a 'Dark Lord's Servant'..." Sirius muttered softly.

"Of course, Dumbledore will make small mistakes and instruct young people from the perspective of an educator, but he is not old enough to be tricked into giving up his position as principal by the Dark Lord's servants." Ricardo put down the cup, " Therefore, even though the charges against you are still on file with the Ministry of Magic, you are innocent."

"It's just as Principal Dumbledore expected," Sirius' tone was full of sighs, "After he said that he would come to you if anything happened, I also asked how to increase trust, but he said that as long as I come to you If I tell you, I can gain your trust."

"No," Ricardo flicked the cup, "I just won't take action against you because Dumbledore won't be confused about big things. In fact, I don't need to cooperate with you. I will Get rid of that bastard who was bad for my students.”

He naturally knew that if he cooperated with Sirius, this problem would be solved faster, but... it would also expose him more to Dumbledore.

Since he is the "substitute" chosen by Dumbledore, then this person's interests will definitely be the same as Dumbledore's. Everything he exposed in front of Sirius will be known to Dumbledore one by one. If so... Absolutely not that.

When he thought about how Dumbledore had told him when he entered school last year that he would not explore his secrets, yet he clearly knew all about him, appeared "just in time" when he confronted Voldemort, and "just happened" to give him weapons, Ricardo felt that An aversion to cold.

He said that he would not take the initiative to ask, just because... he had already understood everything, maintained the superficial harmony and trust, and then made his moves outside the chessboard, feeling at ease.

Thinking of this, a ball of anger suddenly arose in Ricardo's mind, and his breathing became short for a moment.

"If you are just going to invite me to investigate the problem with you," Ricardo took a deep breath to calm his somewhat confused brain, "then forget it. I'm not used to having Watson by my side when investigating incidents. "

This was a Muggle novel character. Sirius had never heard of it, but he could hear Ricardo's tone being a little deeper. He rolled his eyes and touched something in his sleeve with his right hand.

"But what if this matter is not simple?" He recalled Dumbledore's answer when he asked him before. "For example, what if the coma is just a symptom?"

PS

1. A small complaint: From the appearance to the behavior of Grindelwald in Fantastic Beasts 3...sigh;

2. That unicorn is really... ugly and weird;

3. I’m back!I shouldn’t know how to be a eunuch, right?
