From Karma Taj to Hogwarts

Xiwen finally figured out the truth of the matter, and now he urgently wants to inform the professor about it!

Ignoring the gazes of the other young wizard Yi Yang, he walked straight to the faculty seat, walked around the side of the high platform, and came to the dean's seat near the center of the long table.

Professor Slughorn saw Sivan coming and greeted him with a smile: "Ah, Sivan! How was your Halloween dinner?"

"Not bad, Professor." Xiwen responded casually.

He looked at his dean who was smiling, and then at the dean of Gryffindor who looked at him in surprise. He felt that it was inappropriate to just talk to Dumbledore in front of Professor Slughorn, so He hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to inform the two deans at the same time of his speculation.

"Professor Slughorn, Professor Dumbledore," he said, looking at the two of them. "I have something important to tell you."

The two professors were a little surprised, but they still nodded respectfully. After informing Principal Dippet, they followed Xiwen to the corner of the auditorium.

Standing behind a giant pumpkin, Sivan said to Dumbledore straight to the point: "Professor, I think I know who the person who cast the confusion spell on me is?"

"What? Someone put a confusion spell on you?" Before Dumbledore could speak, Professor Slughorn shouted in shock, although his expression was indeed slightly exaggerated.

"What's going on?" He looked at Dumbledore with questioning eyes.

Dumbledore's expression also became serious, and he asked in a deep voice: "Who is that person?"

Xiwen stared at the faces of the two men and said word by word: "It's Professor Luo Lei."

"Xiwen, you have to know that the consequences of slandering the professor out of thin air are very serious!" Professor Slughorn couldn't believe it and looked at Xiven seriously and warned. "If you go back on your word now we can pretend we didn't hear anything."

Xiwen shook his head and said, "Professor, I didn't slander him out of thin air."

Dumbledore frowned and asked, "How sure are you?"

"At least 90% sure!" Xiwen said solemnly.

"But, Claude, didn't he say he had a fever? He should be in the school hospital now." Professor Slughorn also became a little nervous, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the water on his greasy forehead. Sweat.

Dumbledore thought for a moment and then said: "Let's go to the school hospital now to see if he is there!"

……

Three wizards, two large and one small, walked quickly towards the campus hospital on the fourth floor.

However, just as the three of them stepped onto the stairs of the main tower, a slight shaking sound spread throughout the castle.

"What just happened?" Professor Slughorn stopped and looked at Dumbledore.

Dumbledore also stopped, shook his head and said, "I don't know, I hope it's not what I thought."

Xiwen shook his head secretly. He felt that Professor Luo Lei might have succeeded.

"It should be underground." Professor Slughorn thought about it for a moment and then said.

Dumbledore nodded and agreed: "It should be on the underground floor."

The three people quickly changed their attention and decided to explore the direction where the vibration just came from.

"Sivan, I hope you can return to the auditorium first. What happens soon may be dangerous." Dumbledore said to Sivan.

Xiwen naturally would not agree and retorted: "This is in the castle, and there are two deans beside me. Nothing can hurt me!"

After Professor Slughorn learned that Sivan wanted to go with them, he thought about it for a moment, and then said to Dumbledore: "Albus, Sivan is right, with the two of us by his side, it will be great." There is no danger. What’s more, he is also a party involved.”

Time was urgent, and Dumbledore had no time to refute. After all, he agreed to let Xiwen follow, but added: "When encountering danger, you must stay close to us and don't run around!"

The three of them reached the basement level through the stairs of the main tower, near the kitchen, and found many house elves running around in a panic. This is completely inconsistent with their character, who always only have set goals in their eyes, and the abnormality of things seems to be obvious.

Xiwen found the elf among the panicked house elves who had brought him meals. He had mostly been the one who asked the elf to help him with things before.

"Budi?" he stopped him and asked. "What's going on here? Why are you in such a mess?"

"Dear Wizard, I didn't expect you to still remember my name. Budi is so touched!" He wiped the corners of his eyes with emotion and replied.

"Just now, some of the appliances in the kitchen suddenly became paralyzed, but Buddy couldn't find a way to repair it. Buddy is a useless house elf!" Buddy then said very frustrated.

After hearing Budi's words, Xiwen glanced at the two professors and saw that their faces were also very solemn.

"Budi, this has nothing to do with you. There is a bad guy who destroyed the magic node of the castle. The paralysis of the kitchen appliances may be related to this." Xiwen turned to look at Budi and consoled him.

However, Buddy was even sadder. He sobbed and said: "The castle was destroyed, but Buddy didn't notice it at all. Buddy is an irresponsible house elf!"

As he spoke, he banged his head against the wall next to him, muttering: "Bad Buddy! Bad Buddy!..."

"Budi, stop!" Xiwen had no choice but to forcefully make Budi stop, and then looked at the two professors for help.

Dumbledore took over and quickly assigned Buddy a new task to divert his attention.

He said: "Budi, now we will give you a new task. We need you to lead us to find any traces of destruction nearby."

With the new task came new motivation. Budi quickly wiped away his tears and conscientiously led the three people to search for suspicious traces in the corridor on the underground floor.

This is a wide stone corridor, the surroundings are very brightly illuminated by torches, and it is decorated with pleasant pictures, mainly of food.

Xiwen saw a particularly large picture, which showed a huge silver bowl filled with fruits. He knew that as long as he stretched out his hand and scratched the big green pear in the silver bowl, it would turn into a green doorknob, and when opened, it would lead to the Hogwarts kitchen. Xiwen has been here many times in the past two months and is already very familiar with it.

At this moment, Professor Slughorn pulled Sivan behind him, and both he and Dumbledore raised their wands and pointed them at the picture.

Xiwen was stunned. He carefully observed the picture and found nothing wrong.

But the two deans obviously couldn't make mistakes. Dumbledore said to the painting: "Claude, show up, you have no way out."

Professor Slughorn protected Sivan with his left hand, and shot a spell with his right hand. Dumbledore also cast the spell at the same time.

Xiwen could roughly identify the two silent spells as the Revealing Charm and the Disarming Charm.

Two magic spells were struck in front of the painting in no particular order. The disarming spell successfully brought back the opponent's wand, and the revealing spell also made a figure appear from the invisible state.

However, that person was not Professor Claude Lorre as Xiven thought, but an unknown black-haired witch.

Seeing her figure, Dumbledore opened his eyes wide and asked with a very surprised expression:

"Miss Carlotta Pinkstone, why are you here?"
