"It's not bad. Remus and Al briefly planned the business arrangements for the next two years with me." Teal answered truthfully, and Snape nodded. His expression obviously didn't change, but she had an intuition. The professor didn't seem satisfied with this answer.

Looking at Snape's expectant eyes, Teal thought for a moment and tentatively answered: "Well... I just miss you sometimes."

"I miss you too." Snape was finally satisfied, and his eyebrows relaxed, completely unaware that his expression had changed drastically at this moment, and his sense of success was too obvious.

Of course, Teal felt sweet in his heart. He glanced at Snape with a smile, then lowered his head and straightened the hem of his slightly crooked school uniform. But just as her hand touched the hem of her clothes, she frowned and noticed that there was something strange stained on the hem of her clothes.

"What is this?" These strange things were actually just some fine powder. Till did not touch them with his fingers. Instead, he took out a handkerchief and lightly wiped it on the hem of his clothes. The powder was easily transferred to the handkerchief. superior.

The handkerchief is pure white. The black and gray powder that is not obvious on the hem of the clothes is very conspicuous on the handkerchief.

Snape stood up, walked to Teal, squatted down, and looked at the powder closely: "It doesn't look like ordinary dust."

"I'm a little uneasy." Till put his handkerchief on the table and carefully recalled when and where he got the powder.

Her school uniform must have been washed before she put it on. Tier could guarantee that the dust was not brought from home. Along the way, she had ridden in cars, squeezed through platforms, patrolled corridors... there were so many possible places. , Till, who had not paid attention to these details, was completely unsure.

Teal's casual remark made him uneasy, but Snape took it to heart. He knew about Tire's identity as a prophet, and the prophet himself had a unique talent in perceiving the future, and his intuition was often more sensitive than ordinary people.

Thiel was uneasy about the appearance of these powders, which meant that something not so wonderful was bound to happen.

"I'm going to find Minerva." Professor McGonagall was also on the train, but unlike Snape who had nothing to do and could wander out to find Teal, Professor McGonagall was busy in the prefects' carriage.

Snape left quickly, taking Teal's handkerchief with him. Teal couldn't sit still in the vacant carriage, so he simply walked out and looked for powder on the train.

"Tiel, why are you back?" Till searched all the way and soon found the corridor he was patrolling. Of course Charlie was surprised when he saw Till, and he looked behind Till by the way. Wondering if Snape was following Teal.

"The professor has something to do. I came out for a walk and saw if there was anything wrong on the train." Till didn't say it directly, but her simple hint still made Charlie understand.

The wizarding world is not as peaceful as everyone thinks, and unknown dangers are always lurking. Mr. Weasley often mentioned this to his two growing sons, Bill and Charlie. Charlie nodded to Till and moved out of the way: "Be safe."

"Don't worry." Till searched carefully, and soon arrived at the next section of the corridor. Many of the prefects who met her were gentle to her. Till did not express his intention, and swept all the ground with his eyes freely. and the outer wall of the carriage.

Finally, Thiel saw the appearance of black-gray powder.

It was the last section of the Hogwarts Express. Teal saw a lot of luggage piled here in a disorderly manner. They were basically piled in one place by one person or a carriage. Teal walked around several piles of luggage. I saw a few lines of writing on the wall.

"Greatness causes jealousy, jealousy leads to resentment, and resentment breeds lies." Till followed the words and read these three short sentences softly, feeling a little itchy in her heart for no reason - an emotion that she understood as shuddering fear. At this time It was growing in her heart.

She knew this sentence, or in other words, someone had said this sentence in front of her.

That was in the practice room. She didn't know how many times she had talked to Tom Riddle, who was on guard against her, and he didn't know how many times he had shown his verbal charm to her.

'Greatness breeds envy, jealousy breeds bitterness, bitterness breeds lies... Beautiful Miss Emery, do you agree with this sentence? '

Tom Riddle's confident voice still seemed to be ringing in her ears. Till pursed her lips, not wanting to admit that she recognized this sentence very much, so she kept it in her heart.

Now on the express train, she actually saw this sentence. Was it left by Voldemort when he was a student, or was it that one of his loyal men intentionally left misleading words on this express train full of young wizards?

Also, what is the black-gray powder used to write this sentence? Obviously her handkerchief fell off as soon as she rubbed it. The writing here didn't look like it was left recently, but there were no traces of damage.

Till didn't have a veil on her body anymore, and secretly she didn't want to come into direct contact with the powder that made her uneasy, so she turned around and left. She successfully saw a heavy-looking Professor McGonagall and Snape in the prefects' carriage.

Professor McGonagall was keenly aware of Till's appearance at the door. She took a deep breath and tried to be gentle to Till, but her trembling voice still revealed something was wrong: "Til, please come in and tell me Close the carriage door."

There were only two professors in the prefect car at this time. When Till arrived, she did not see the two student union presidents. She guessed that they might have been taken away by Professor McGonagall and others.

Till closed the carriage door and walked to the two professors: "Professor, what on earth are those powders?"

"Although there is still some uncertainty, but if nothing else, it should be the horn powder of the Romanian ceratopsian." Professor McGonagall sighed and pushed the handkerchief in front of Till. "There are still some snake venom residues in it, and the skin's Direct contact will leave burning black marks.”

Teal's eyelids twitched, and he was a little glad that neither he nor Snape touched carelessly.

However, since it is such a dangerous powder, why is it on Till’s clothes?

"I've looked for it, and only the last section of the carriage has such powder, and it's a sentence written in powder." Till clenched his right hand into a fist and pressed it on the table, "I've never been there before, it doesn't exist It’s possible that you accidentally got it.”

Professor McGonagall and Snape's expressions turned cold.

If Till didn't accidentally get it while walking, it could only be that someone else deliberately dropped the powder on Till's clothes.

Apart from the trolley salesman and the driver, there were only two adults on the Hogwarts Express, Professor McGonagall and Snape, and the rest were all Hogwarts students. So who was it that moved Tier's clothes? ?

If Thiel accidentally touches such a poisonous powder, his skin will be injured instantly. If not treated in time, Thiel will even be left with incurable scars.

[System, didn’t you notice it either? 】 Tier reluctantly turned to the system for help. There were no clues in her memory, so she could only place her hope in the system.

The system could only regretfully say: [Sorry, host, I have searched the data recorded by the system in real time, and no one has approached you, so naturally the murderer cannot be found. 】
