Mysterious Walker at Hogwarts

Dean suddenly understood why the system generously made him immune to the Imperius Curse. It turned out that it was afraid that he would take advantage of the loophole and use the Imperius Curse to complete the task of "organizing chaotic memories."

Dean deduced from this that this task was definitely not as simple as it seemed, and that "reward: random" was of unexpected value!

Although the "Werewolf Attack" mission that worried Dean had not yet been completed, the harvest last night was enough to make Dean wake up from his dream with a smile.

At this moment, the Knight Bus shook violently. Dean opened his eyes and found that Lupine was about to wake him up: "Hogsmeade Village is here."

"Apart from the poor riding experience, I didn't expect it to be so fast." Dean muttered, "Mr. Lupin, will you get off the bus with me?"

"No, I'm going to go directly to London." Lupine gestured to Ern, "Ern promised to give me a ride."

"That's good, then I wish you the best~" Dean breathed a sigh of relief. If Lupine got off the car with him, how to make the difference without missing a beat would be a headache for him.

"Goodbye, Mr. Mysterious Walker, wait for my good news." After the Knight Bus closed the door, Lupine saluted Dean behind the door.

"Goodbye." Dean waved.

Just when he was about to turn around, he suddenly saw a small gray shadow entering the Knight Bus from the other side. If he saw it correctly, it seemed to be Ron's pet Scabbers?

Just as Dean was about to take a closer look, the Knight Bus disappeared from his eyes with a bang.

"I think Scabbers must not know that Lupine is in the car, otherwise he wouldn't dare to get in the car even if he had a hundred courages." Dean shook his head, wondering whether Lupine would find out that Scabbers was the "long dead" Peter Pettigrew. , it would be interesting if found.

Dean was not in the mood to care about the "noisy affairs" within the "Predators" for the time being. A very real problem was before him. How could he return to the nearby Hogwarts without attracting attention?

Dean hesitated and decided to ask Aberforth for help. He could only think of using the secret passage in the Pig's Head Bar leading to the Room of Requirement.

Dean quietly found a corner where no one was paying attention, and after taking off the disguise of the Secret Walker, he went outside the Pig's Head Bar and knocked on the door.

"Who is it? It's so early! Don't you know it's just closing time when the sun rises?" Aberforth's nagging voice came from the door.

After the door was opened, before Dean could say hello, Aberforth, who saw him outside the door, pulled him in.

"Dean! Why are you here?" Aberforth asked with an uncontrollable expression. "What did you do last night? Newt almost went crazy."

"Mr. Aberforth, please speak slowly..." Dean was a little confused. The amount of information revealed by Aberforth's words was a bit large, and he had to process it carefully.

"Let me ask you, did you borrow Frank the Thunderbird's magic last night?" Aberforth asked.

"Yes."

"What are you using its magic for? Do you know Frank is dying?"

"Pfft~ No way?" Dean was completely frightened. No wonder he could no longer borrow magic power through the Thunderbird wand. Is Frank's situation so serious?

"You'll see for yourself! Newt is taking care of it." Aberforth said, taking Dean to the room where he had stayed for the night before - Newt's magic suitcase was placed in the middle of the room .

"Master Newt, what happened to Frank?" After Dean entered the magic suitcase, he immediately saw Newt half-kneeling on the ground, with the once majestic Thunderbird Frank lying in front of him.

Frank's golden feathers now became tattered, and a rotten smell emanated from it.

"Dean, you're here." Newt's voice was extremely tired, with a hint of sadness.

"Frank...what happened to it?" Dean glanced at the thunderbird with his eyes closed, and couldn't help but feel sad.

"It's in a very strange state, as if it's been hit by Avada's Kedavra." Newt said weakly, "I've never seen anything like this before, and I don't know how to save it."

Avada Kedavra?Dean couldn't help but think of the frightening scene last night. It seemed that it was after that that the magic power provided by the Thunderbird Wand began to become unstable. Could it be... that he was the culprit?

"Master Newt, can you tell me the details?" Dean requested hurriedly.

"Frank was very excited last night, the most excited I've seen him in decades." Newt said slowly, "He created a big thundercloud here and was soaring in it - I guess That’s why you borrowed magic power from it last night.”

"Yes, I encountered a very powerful enemy yesterday and had to rely on Frank's power." Dean felt extremely guilty. If he had known that such a result would occur, he must have thought of other methods at the time.

"Everything was normal, but suddenly, a green light appeared, cut through the thundercloud and hit Frank, and then it became what you see now." Newt's tone was full of sadness.

This is a real deal!Dean's heart suddenly contracted violently, almost so painful that he couldn't breathe.

"I, I think this, this may be my reason." After waiting for a while, Dean said cowardly, "Someone did attack me with Avada Kedavra last night. I thought I escaped. , but unexpectedly it harmed Frank.”

"Someone attacked you with Avada Kedavra? Who was it?" Aberforth exclaimed.

"I'm sorry, I don't know if I should say it. Maybe I need to seek Professor Dumbledore's opinion." Dean didn't know how to answer.

After hearing Dumbledore's name, Aberforth snorted heavily and stopped talking.

"Dean, can you tell me how you escaped?" Newt asked.

"At that time, I suddenly sensed in advance that the other party was going to use Avada Kedavra to attack me, so just before he attacked me, I flashed behind him, and Avada Kedavra failed." Dean said Then he also showed them the flash effect.

"I think I understand what's going on." Newt sighed. "Although your body had escaped at that time, the magical connection established between you and Frank remained in place, so Avada Kedavra followed The magic link came here and attacked Frank - this is why Frank was not killed immediately, but still lingering: when Avada Kedavra came here across time and space, it was greatly weakened."

"Master Newt, I don't understand. Since Avada Kedavra can attack along the magic link, why didn't you attack me?" Dean asked in confusion.

"Because you are too close to the person who cast the spell, if Avada Kedavra pursues you, he is likely to hurt himself, so he must have controlled the fatal curse to stay away from him at that time." Newt gave the answer Answer.

Dean was silent after listening.
