Night Evolution

Chapter 286

In the headmaster's office of Hogwarts, Dumbledore looked at the shivering Harry Potter and had a headache.

Filch's death was seen in public, and it was not an easy task to conceal it.

But don't hide it, just watched Harry being sent to Azkaban. Not to mention that he himself likes this child very much, but without Harry Potter as a bait, it is not easy to find the Horcruxes left by Voldemort to resurrect himself.

Without Harry Potter, Voldemort's resurrection is at hand.

More importantly, he didn't believe Harry would suddenly kill Filch at all.

There must be someone behind this, but before that, he has to do one thing.

Dumbledore took out a wand and looked at it with a complicated expression. This is not an ordinary wand, but the most powerful wand in the world today. The Elder Wand is different from other wands that can only cast spells stably. Magic and spell power.

Forget it all!

Dumbledore pointed the Elder Wand at Harry Potter.

The memory of Harry Potter from the night was forcibly forgotten at this moment, walking back to his dormitory like a robot.

Dumbledore didn't stop, but left the principal's office and raised the Elder Wand. The professors who were caught off guard were all shrouded in oblivion, and returned to their bedrooms under the effect of the Forgetting Curse.

Then there are student dormitories one by one, and all the students in Hogwarts have been cast with the Oblivion Curse.

Continuously casting a large number of Oblivion Curse, even with Dumbledore's magic power, he was half-tired.

Even if he has the Elder Wand in a few years, he may not be able to do it. Although he is already the most powerful White Wizard in the world, his body is still gradually declining as he grows older. There is no way to live forever. Both have too many side effects.

His most proud disciple, Voldemort, split his soul to make Horcruxes in an attempt to live forever at his peak.

In the end, he really lived forever, but he also became an extreme lunatic due to the side effects of splitting his soul. If it wasn’t for the hidden dangers caused by excessive splitting of his soul, how could he be killed by Avada who was rebounded by a protective spell from Harry’s mother back then? Give back to die.

Dumbledore returned to the office, and Snape had waited with Zhao Mu and Hermione for a while.

Seeing Hermione also appear, Dumbledore looked at Snape in surprise.

He's been teaching Hermione Charms...

Snape said everything he knew.

Dumbledore looked deeply at Zhao Mu. Although Rowan had a perfect alibi, the fact that he was a witcher was too suspicious, and Hermione happened to testify for him at this critical moment today. It was highly unlikely but Hermione might have lied.

Originally, he was very optimistic about this child and planned to train her as Harry's helper.

But now it seemed that he had to choose someone else.

Take Veritaserum to prove your innocence.

Dumbledore said solemnly.

What if I say no?

Zhao Mu said angrily.

Then you are the murderer of Filch.

Dumbledore said without a doubt.

Filch is dead?

Zhao Mu asked in surprise, pretending to be totally ignorant.

You are the number one suspect.

Dumbledore nodded.

I came to take Veritaserum. She is too young to be tortured like this.

Zhao Mu gritted his teeth and said.

no!

Dumbledore shook his head decisively.

Veritaserum is not a panacea. He is worried that Rowan can resist Veritaserum. Even if he can resist Hermione, it is impossible. He must know whether Rowan participated in the incident of Harry killing Filch. If he can prove his innocence will naturally be compensated.

I'd like to drink Veritaserum.

Hermione said stubbornly, wiping away her tears.

She and Professor Rowan are obviously innocent, but Professor Dumbledore wants to use Veritaserum on them.

At this moment, she was extremely disappointed in Hogwarts.

Snape.

said Dumbledore.

Snape took a small brass flask from his pocket, picked up two cups from Dumbledore's table, poured more into one and less in the other, which was small but It was good enough for Hermione.

Zhao Mu stepped forward to pick up the cup and drank it, and soon he fell into a state of confusion.

Seizing his time, Snape began to ask sharp questions one after another.

Hermione was shocked to hear that Filch was killed by Harry, and she also knew that Professor Rowan was really the wizard's enemy, the witcher. He didn't lie to himself on the train. Now she finally understands why Dumbledore Use veritaserum.

Understanding is understanding, but it doesn't mean she agrees with Dumbledore's approach.

The question was quickly finished, and Snape shook his head in disappointment and picked up another cup and handed it to Hermione.

Hermione drank it in one gulp, and quickly lost her sanity completely.

Confirming the same answer again, Snape looked at Dumbledore with a look of horror on his face.

Rowan is innocent, and the biggest remaining suspect is Voldemort.

Harry Potter is known as the savior in the wizarding world, and he even thwarted Voldemort's resurrection plan last year and destroyed part of Voldemort's soul. Voldemort, who was lurking in the dark, might indeed temporarily control Harry to kill Filch through the Imperius Curse.

This has too many benefits for Voldemort, the first big benefit is that Harry Potter will lose his reputation.

Dumbledore felt his head hurt even more, and he also suspected Voldemort. He was not listed as the first suspect before, but it was because he didn't believe that Voldemort would recover so quickly, but who else could do it if it wasn't for Voldemort.

Forget it all!

Dumbledore casually cast the Forgetting Curse on Zhao Mu and Hermione.

Throughout Hogwarts, in the end only Dumbledore himself and Snape knew what had happened.

Tomorrow is a brand new day, and Filch will be a retiree.

As for Dumbledore and Snape, they were no longer prepared to let the basilisk exist any longer.

Although they don't know the regular passage of the secret room, it is certain that the pipes in the wall can lead to the secret room. However, when they entered the underground secret room, all they saw were a few snake scales, the basilisk that attacked Mrs. Norris not long ago Has disappeared without a trace.

I searched for clues many times, but in the end there were no clues at all.

Dumbledore had to admit that he lost to Voldemort this time, and Voldemort no longer went on a brainless rampage like last year, but took revenge for the breakthrough point through Harry, which was definitely too bad for him. news.

For the first time, Dumbledore discovered that his grip on Hogwarts was not strong enough.

...

The professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts was working, Hermione lowered her head and her eyes were moist and red.

First Veritaserum, then the Forgetting Curse.

If Professor Rowan hadn't secretly reminded her to use Occlumency when she went to the principal's office, and helped her recover her forgotten memories just now, I'm afraid she would have completely forgotten everything that happened tonight just like everyone else.

Principal Dumbledore, let her realize what is an adult and what is a politician.

What makes her more uncomfortable is Harry Potter, if he really didn't kill someone, why did Principal Dumbledore use the Oblivion Curse to hide Filch's death to absolve Harry, Harry and Ron are her best friends , but now the word friend made her feel even more frightened.
