Hogwarts Life Guide

Chapter 231 The Identity of the Dead

Moody took out his wand and approached the suspected dead person, carefully inspected it, and then carefully turned the person over. A swollen, unclear face appeared in front of the young wizards who were watching.

The little wizards who could see this scene were frightened and even vomited on the spot. I am afraid they will be troubled by nightmares for a while.

From Tangning's perspective, she could only see the special shape of her blond hair, which had lost its luster. Seeing the performance of the other young wizards, he was even a little lucky that he didn't see too much, so he simply took two steps back.Feeling that she had stepped on something, Tangning turned around and saw a sullen pretty face.

Furong was very unhappy after being stepped on for no reason.

"Who discovered her first?" Moody asked on the other side.

"It's me, Professor." A familiar voice came from the crowd. Tangning turned her head and spotted Harry who was speaking. Ron was beside him as always.Tangning really didn't notice him before.

Tangning had always thought that he could easily get into trouble, but now he suddenly felt that he had probably been dragged down by Harry. The man who was speaking in front of him was a little nervous and stammered: "Ron and I saw something in the lake. The giant squid pushed her to the shore, and she was like this!"

As they spoke, the young wizards who were surrounding Harry and Ron subconsciously cleared a small circle of space, revealing the two of them.

"Do you remember the reporter who took pictures of us?" A pleasant voice rang in Tangning's ears, and at the same time, a bright silver flash appeared in the corner of his eye.

reporter?Rita Skeeter!Tang Ning suddenly realized that this journalist who was keen on spreading rumors had a very iconic golden curly hair.

"It does look a lot like her!" Tangning murmured, "But if it's really Rita Skeeter, she has been fired from the Daily Prophet, so why is she here?"

Of course, Fleur couldn't answer Tangning's questions. Her interaction with Rita was limited to the day of the photo shoot, and they left behind not so good memories.Speaking of which, she just learned the second piece of news about Rita.

Obviously, no one present could answer Tangning's question. Moody announced the results of his investigation without expression: "She is dead."

The young wizards were in an uproar and panicked. Even though there had been many accidents at Hogwarts in the past few years, this was the first time someone had died here this year.

"Why are you standing here?" At this moment, Professor McGonagall rushed over until the little wizards made a passage so that she could see Moody squatting on the ground... "Oh my god, what happened? ?Professor Moody?”

"Someone died in the lake," Moody replied calmly.

"Someone..." As if his throat was suddenly strangled, Professor McGonagall walked quickly to Moody's side and stared at the body on the ground. After being quiet for a while, Professor McGonagall took a deep breath and spoke with her usual voice. In the same tone, he said to the young wizards who were watching: "All of you, gather in the auditorium. Before I find you, don't let your classmates know what's going on here..."

As she spoke, Professor McGonagall's eyes roamed the crowd, once, twice... Finally, she made a decision: "Mr. Lestrange, I hope you can ensure that there are no accidents along the way."

Tang Ning: "Huh???" Tang Ning, who suddenly asked her name, was a little stunned.

"Is there a problem?" Professor McGonagall frowned. If it weren't for the fact that there was no reliable senior student among the little wizards in front of her, she would not have chosen the third-year Tangning.

"No problem, Professor!" Tangning came to her senses and immediately replied. He knew his priorities clearly. Someone died in Hogwarts. At this time, not causing trouble to the professors is actually the best help.

Tangning didn't wait for Professor McGonagall to urge her, and immediately greeted, "Everyone, let's go!"

Seeing the scattered team gradually heading towards the castle, Tang Ning felt very satisfied. No one caused any trouble, it was great~

"I want to get back to the carriage!"

Tangning's emotion immediately disappeared. He turned his attention to Miss Delacour who was speaking. He quickly made a decision in his mind - of course he chose to reject her.

"Did you hear what Professor McGonagall just said..." Tangning just reminded her gently at first.

"I'm not a student of your school!" Fleur immediately retorted.

Both he and Fleur stopped. Some of the little wizards continued to move towards the auditorium, but at the same time, a few little wizards stayed behind as if they wanted to watch the fun. As for what exactly they were looking at, Ron said he would be happy to answer this question.

"But you're at Hogwarts now! Aren't you?" Tangning said tit-for-tat. He turned back to Harry, who was staying behind, and said, "Can you help me go to the Great Hall to have a look?" He had already made up his mind that it was him after all. It was the first time that the dean of the college asked him to help with something, and he had to do it well no matter what. At the very least, he had to prove that Tang Ning was not only capable of causing trouble.

I, Tangning, am extremely reliable!

"Is this the way Hogwarts treats guests?" Fleur asked angrily.

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud shout came from the side - "No!"

Where the voice came from, Harry was looking at his little friend in surprise, obviously not expecting Ron to be so excited suddenly.

Ron, who had yelled, also realized what he had done. He blushed instantly and lost the courage to shout loudly. With red ears and head lowered, he quickly dragged Harry and ran to the front of the team.

After Ron's interruption, the tension between Tangning and Fleur became less tense.

"Please! Miss Delacour." Tangning reached out her hand very gentlemanly. Anyway, he considered himself to be very gentlemanly.

Fleur turned around, hummed twice, and walked towards the auditorium without looking back.

"Perfect!" Tangning praised herself in her heart and chased after him.

The young wizards gathered in the auditorium were having a heated discussion about the corpse that appeared by the lake. After experiencing the initial panic, they seemed to have returned to their true nature, and their curiosity suddenly overcame their true nature.

Many young wizards gathered around the first discoverers, Harry and Ron, trying to find some clues from them, but they also had little idea.

Not long after, Professor McGonagall appeared in the auditorium. She just told everyone not to think wildly and kept silent about who the body that appeared by the lake was.

Afterwards, the little wizards were ordered back to the lounge, and the professors took the student union president and prefects to inspect the school. It was not until dinner time that the little wizards gathered in groups in the auditorium.

Dumbledore announced the identity of the deceased in a sad tone: "Rita Skeeter, the former reporter of the Daily Prophet, the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic initially believed that Skeeter died in an accident. She appeared for some reason. into the Black Lake. The Aurors are currently looking for her wand. If anyone has seen Ms. Skeeter or her wand before, please contact me or inform your dean in time."
