From Karma Taj to Hogwarts

Chapter 62 A castle running out of order

Because the magic nodes were affected by the destruction, the little wizards quickly discovered that things were different from before.

The next morning when we were eating in the Great Hall, when I tapped the plate, no food came out of it as usual. Instead, hard-working house elves pushed several small carts beside the long table. With his short legs, he neatly delivers food to the little wizards in need.

This is because the food transmission from the kitchen to the auditorium originally relied on the magic transmission channel of the castle itself. However, after the magic node left by Hufflepuff at the kitchen door was destroyed, this passage lost its source of magic and could no longer be used.

Not only the dining habits of the wizards in the castle were affected, but other aspects were also affected.

For example, a small part of the movable stairs in the main tower completely stopped. Many classrooms have to be accessed through these stairs. Many times, little wizards can only recite the magic spell to pull them in front of them before they can go up. After stepping on the stairs, they can recite the magic spell to push them to their destination.

It's okay that this part is completely stationary, at least it can be pulled manually. However, there is still a part that seems to be stuck in some kind of poor magical connection, and is constantly moving in place. Even if it is pulled in front of the little wizards using magic spells, it may twitch suddenly, bringing enough stimulation to the little wizards who step on it.

There was already an unlucky little wizard who was thrown down the movable staircase. Fortunately, a prefect discovered it in time and caught him with a spell, so he was not injured.

Faced with this situation, the professors had no choice but to cast spells to completely fix the disobedient movable stairs, and temporarily used Transfiguration and Permanent Sticking Charm to build some new stairs so that students could reach the classrooms.

Of course, many little wizards were late for Xiwen's first period of Transfiguration class on Monday. However, Dumbledore, who had just been busy building a temporary staircase, arrived later than them, so naturally there was no such thing as punishment.

At the end of the day, the little wizards were all complaining. They deeply realized how inconvenient it was to live in the castle without the supply of magic power!

The professors are extremely tired. They have to attend classes, and at the same time they have to help manage the order of the little wizards in the castle and protect their safety. In addition, they have to find time to find the murderer who destroyed the magic node...

"I didn't appreciate it when the castle was running normally. I didn't feel the convenience until it was gone." Abraxas complained to Sivan while walking on the temporary stairs to the vice-principal's office on the third floor.

Xiwen glanced at the movable stairs standing still in mid-air next to him, nodded with deep approval, and said: "Indeed, when these movable stairs were still there, I thought they were troublesome. Now it seems that these stairs have saved us a lot. Physical strength!”

Abu nodded, then seemed to remember something, and asked in an uncertain tone: "By the way, does your method really work?"

"Don't worry, the culprit will be caught today!" Xiwen said.

His expression gradually turned cold.

……

At this time, in the vice-principal's office, one after another, rather extraordinary figures came out of the fireplace.

Mellor's expression was not very good, but he still tried his best to smile and said to them: "I wonder if there is any important matter for the sudden visit of the school board of directors today?"

"Vice Principal Mellors, I think the fact that the magic nodes of Hogwarts Castle have been destroyed one after another is not a small matter, right?" A man with long platinum blond shawl hair, a pale face, wearing a embellished dress The man wearing a luxurious black cloak with gold trim said to Professor Mellors.

"We will take care of this, Mr. Malfoy," Professor Mellors said with a frown.

"We disagree with this." A woman with long, smooth black hair and a delicate face raised her voice and retorted. "Professor Mellors, if you are really capable of handling this matter, you will not let the magic node be destroyed a second time!"

Professor Mellors's face darkened, but he didn't know how to refute this.

"Boom bang bang-"

At this moment, a knock came from the door of the vice principal's office.

"Come in!" Professor Mellors immediately waved his wand and opened the door to his office, hoping that some little wizard would come over and ask some random questions so that he could change the subject.

But when she saw the two little wizards standing outside the door, her slightly hopeful mood became heavier.

"Rozier, Malfoy, what are you doing here?" she asked with hope.

"Of course they are here to find our father and mother, Professor." Sivan smiled easily and waved to Sandrine, who was leaning lazily by the fireplace.

Sandrine's frosty expression also melted, and she smiled as she looked at the face she hadn't seen for two months.

Professor Mellors suddenly realized that the sudden visit of the school board of directors was most likely caused by this smiling freshman.

Seeing his son, Mr. Malfoy, who had long platinum hair, also waved to Abu and said: "Abbu, come here."

Abu was obviously in awe of his father. He completely put away his previous arrogance and walked to Mr. Malfoy's side obediently.

Xiwen also walked up to Sandrine and hugged her cordially.

"I haven't seen him for two months, and my son has turned into a little adult." Sandrine said with a smile.

'Actually, he is an adult...' Xiwen thought silently. He seriously suspected that it was Sandrine's pampering that caused his temperament to change slightly, sometimes as if he had returned to his boyhood.

"Mom, I think we should find the principal and solve the castle problem first." Xiwen silently changed the subject.

"That makes sense." Sandrine nodded and turned to look at Professor Mellors.

"Professor Mellors, take us to the principal." Facing others, her expression turned cold again.

……

Fortunately, the spiral escalator leading to the principal's office on the fourth floor was not paralyzed, so the school directors who came to Hogwarts did not have to climb the stairs to the eighth floor in an arduous and ungraceful manner.

At this time, Principal Dippet was busy processing the letters on the table in his office.

As the doorbell rang, he raised his head, and then saw a group of unkind school directors entering the principal's office aggressively.

Seeing this scene, Principal Dippet immediately changed his expression.

"Armando, they are here to investigate the damage to the magic node." Professor Mellors said to Principal Dippet helplessly.

Principal Dippet frowned and looked at the school directors, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry about this matter, the professors at Hogwarts will take care of it."

"This is not your decision, Mr. Principal." Among the crowd, Xiwen said abruptly.

Hearing Xiwen's voice, Principal Dippet looked at the freshman who was less than twelve years old in disbelief, and asked hesitantly: "So, was it you who facilitated the school board's visit, Luo Qi?" Mr. Er?”

Hearing his words, Xiwen smiled.

"Congratulations, you guessed it correctly!"
