Magical Studies at Hogwarts

As if possessed by a demon, Katie floated more than three meters high in the air, her limbs waving violently uncontrollably.

Her friend Lini was so frightened that she grabbed Katie's ankles and screamed like she did.

Harry and Ron quickly ran over and helped Lini pull Katie down. Hermione waved her hand, and a magic fell on Katie, causing her to fall back to the ground.When Lini and Harry saw this, they quickly held down her limbs, but it was difficult for them to control her. Katie was twisting too hard.

"What should I do? Hermione, is there any way?" Harry shouted, holding Katie's legs tightly with both hands. Just during the moment of speaking, his face was hit several times by Katie's knees.

"No, I don't recognize what kind of curse this is!" Hermione took out her wand and pointed a red light at the sky. "Hold on, someone will be here soon!"

"Better hurry up, I can't hold on any longer!" As Ron was speaking, Katie's hand grabbed him several times.

Less than a minute after Hermione sent the signal, someone came over.Looking at the huge figure, he knew it was Hagrid. In the direction of Hogsmeade, Tonks and several unknown guys also gathered around him, as well as many students who ran over following the signal.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Hagrid shouted loudly, and with a wave of his hand, he pushed away the onlookers. He stared at Katie for a few times, and without saying a word, he bent down and picked her up. , turned around and ran towards the castle.Next to them, Tonks and those Aoluo also began to disperse the onlookers.

After everyone had dispersed, Tonks came over with a frown. Seeing Lini crying and Harry and others comforting her, she asked: "Who can tell me what is going on? How did she get hit?" Such a vicious curse?"

Hermione was hugging Lini and softly comforting her. When she heard Tonks' question, Lini cried and replied: "I...I don't know, that's what happened as soon as the box was opened..."

"Box?" Tonks looked in the direction Lini pointed, and saw a beautiful small box on the snow not far away. The lid of the box was open, and there seemed to be a faint light flashing inside.

Ron tried to bend down to pick it up, but Harry pulled him back.

"Don't touch it!" He leaned down and looked at the shining thing in the box with a very serious expression: it was a gorgeous opal necklace.

"I've seen this thing before," Harry said. "A few years ago, it was placed in the Bodkin Bock store. The label said it was enchanted. Katie must have come across it."

Tonks nodded after hearing this, then turned to Lini and asked: "How did the girl get this thing?"

"When she came out of the Three Broomsticks toilet, she had this box in her hand and said she wanted to give it to someone... Her expression was very strange when she spoke..." As she said this, Lini's expression suddenly changed. Changed, "I know! She must have been under the Imperius Curse! I didn't realize it at the time..." Before he could finish speaking, he cried heartbreakingly again and buried his head directly in Hermione's arms. .

"Did she say who gave it to her?" Tonks asked again.

"No, she refused to say..." Lini showed a face full of tears from Hermione's arms, "I had a big argument with her, saying that she was dizzy and could never take this thing with her. I went back to school, but she didn’t listen... Later, I thought about snatching this thing away from her, but who would have thought..."

Before he finished speaking, he buried himself back in Hermione's arms.

Tonks nodded after hearing this and said: "It's already clear. Someone wants to use Katie's hand to bring this dangerous black magic item into the castle... It's no longer safe here. You all need to go back immediately." Go to the castle!" After that, he said to the two Ao Luo next to him: "We have to tell the captain to dismiss all the students, and then quickly go to Three Broomsticks to search..."

"I hope I can gain something..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Tonks nodded slightly to Harry and the others, and left in a hurry with the two Aolo.

"Let's go." Harry sighed, took off his scarf, and carefully wrapped the box in it. "Hagrid should have taken Katie to Madam Pomfrey. We have to take this thing over and let her see it." look."

Hermione helped Lini up and followed Harry and Ron towards the castle.Harry looked worried all the way, and when they entered the campus and stepped onto the open space in front of the castle, he couldn't help it anymore.

"Believe me, Ron, this must have been done by Malfoy." He said to Ron. "Four years ago, when I was hiding in Borgin's Bock shop, Malfoy looked at it carefully! We followed it during the summer vacation He must have gone to get this thing that time!”

"This... Harry, I can't say for sure. You have to know that there are a lot of people going to Bojin Bock's... Besides, didn't Lini say that Katie got it from the toilet?" Ron hesitated. He whispered back.

"It's not the women's toilet, she just said that Katie had it in her hand when she came out of the toilet..." Before Harry could finish, Ron suddenly interrupted him.She pursed her lips in one direction and warned him: "Professor McGonagall!"

"What?" Harry looked back and saw Professor McGonagall wrapped in a dark green robe and heading towards them against the wind and snow.

"Hagrid said that the four of you have witnessed the whole process of Katie's accident. Come to my office immediately!" Professor McGonagall said, seeing the scarf in Harry's hand and seeing something wrapped in it. " What is that, Potter?"

"It's the thing that killed Katie." Harry handed it forward and said.

"Oh my God!" Professor McGonagall quickly took the scarf from Harry's hand, looking a little nervous, "Quick, go to my office now..." As soon as he turned around, he saw Filch holding a dark magic item. The detector walked toward them with excitement, and Professor McGonagall said quickly: "No, Filch! They are with me... Also, send this to Professor Snape immediately, now! Don't Touch it and keep it wrapped in a scarf!”

Professor McGonagall held her robe and led Harry and others to her office quickly.She quickly walked around the table and sat on the chair, looked at Harry and the others and asked seriously: "Tell me, what is going on?"

Lini started crying, but she cried too hard and spoke intermittently. When she talked about grabbing the box from Katie's hand, she completely broke down.He fell into Hermione's arms, unable to say a word.

"Okay, okay." Professor McGonagall rubbed her forehead and said, "Lini, go to the campus hospital and ask Madam Pomfrey to give you some medicine to calm your shock."

Lini sobbed for a while, and finally calmed down a little under Hermione's soft comfort.After giving a slight nod to Professor McGonagall, Harry and others, he turned around, opened the door and left.

After she left, Professor McGonagall looked at Harry and asked, "What happened after Katie touched that necklace?"

"She rose into the air and let out a piercing scream." Harry said, "Professor McGonagall, can I see Professor Dumbledore?"

"He won't be back until next Monday, Potter." Professor McGonagall said with a serious expression, "You can tell me whatever you have to say about this matter."

Harry hesitated for a while, looking embarrassed. He didn't know whether he should reveal everything to Professor McGonagall.Although she is the head of Gryffindor, to be honest, Harry's relationship with her is not as close as that of Dumbledore, who is always invisible.

After a long time, he slowly said: "Professor, I think Draco Malfoy gave Katie this necklace!"
