HP Polar Night

Chapter 43 Compound Decoction

The third attack happened in a very short period of time, and besides a Gryffindor student named Justin Finlayry, there was also the ghost of Gryffindor, Nearly Headless Nick.The panic that this incident brought to Hogwarts was almost directly doubled, because there are very few things in the wizarding world that can cause harm to ghosts.

Harry had a falling out with Justin Finchley over his use of Parseltongue at the Dueling Club, who always thought Harry was encouraging the snake to attack him - which was Draco, by the way summoned.And shortly after this incident, Harry was caught and appeared at the scene of Justin's petrification, only him, the petrified students and ghosts.

The Boy Who Lived was completely caught up in rumors, and most of the students suspected that he was the heir.People shy away from him one after another, except for a few friends of Harry, others dare not approach him at all.

Under such circumstances, Agares has become an unlucky guy who has been wronged.The more people believed that Harry was the murderer, the more guilty they felt for having doubted Agares.By this, his meetings were held again.

At the party, the self-defense spells taught by Agares and some basic alchemy knowledge were popular, and Hogwarts became popular to wear all kinds of alchemical jewelry, whether it was effective or not.

Soon, Christmas will come.

Agares' investigation has made considerable progress, and he has found one of the best Slytherin students 50 years ago: Tom Riddle.This person's surname is obviously not the surname of any pure-blood family in the wizarding world, and there is no other wizard surnamed Riddle in the alumni list.This proves that he is either a Muggleborn or a Muggle-wizard half-blood.Given that Slytherins never take Muggleborn students, he can only be the latter.

Riddell had excellent grades at school and was always among the best. He was elected as the prefect in the fifth grade and the president of the student council in the seventh grade.He received a special contribution award the same year Myrtle was killed.

Agares never believed in coincidences, and there must be some kind of connection between the two.

Draco signed the application for staying in school for Christmas. He seemed to have made up his mind to wait for the heir of Slytherin to show up, and it would be best to provide him with some help. This is in line with a Malfoy style.

Agares intends to take this opportunity to investigate the secrets of 50 years ago, and he has accepted Terrence Higgs' Christmas invitation to be a guest at Higgs Manor.

Higgs, a seventh-year Slytherin student, served as Seeker for six years before Draco succeeded him on the Quidditch team, and remained Slytherin's ace.Unfortunately, he lost to Harry Potter last year.

His father was an important member of the Department of Transportation of the Ministry of Magic, and the Higgs family was also one of the school managers of Hogwarts. His mother came from a pure-blood family in France, and her ancestors were related to the royal family.

Compared to other Slytherins, Higgs obviously has more brains than them. While others are still paving the way for future positions of power, he has already won himself a ticket to the International Confederation of Wizards - ——In the second semester of the sixth grade, Higgs has successfully passed the assessment of the Assistant Wizard of the Federation. As soon as he graduates from Hogwarts, he can take up his post immediately.

Although the International Federation of Wizards is not a government department like the Ministry of Magic, the power in its hands is not even comparable to a small employee of the Ministry of Magic.But on the other hand, the Federation is equivalent to the core of the world's magic world, like the United Nations of the Muggle world.The impact of every decree issued by the Federation is worldwide.

As an assistant in the Federation, all the top figures in the wizarding world in various countries can be contacted.Power, power, wealth, the meaning it represents is enough to make any Slytherin jealous.

Higgs has always admired Agares, and has expressed his appreciation in public more than once. Of course, after Agares' edge gradually became apparent, he wisely exchanged his appreciation for support.One is to have a condescending attitude towards outstanding juniors, and the other is to express goodwill to those who are very likely to surpass themselves in future achievements.

I have to say that Higgs' excellence is by no means in vain.

Agares has also always maintained a good relationship with him.

When the holidays began, Agares left school with the rest of the Slytherins.What he didn't know was that during this period, Harry and his two friends, Ron and Hermione, completed the brewing of advanced potion compound soup alone in Myrtle's bathroom, and successfully mixed it into Slytherin. common room, intending to get some clues about the heir from Draco.

Draco was unprepared, and he had no idea that Crabbe and Goyle who appeared in front of him turned out to be someone else, and they were his usual rivals Harry Potter and Ron Weasley.

He was gleefully sharing with them the news from the Daily Prophet about Arthur Weasley's infraction for bewitching a Muggle car—the flying car was just the beginning of school for Ron and Harry. The protagonist who makes a big splash.

Ron was furious with Crabbe's face from the Polyjuice Potion, and Harry had to hold him back so he wouldn't jump on him and fight Malfoy.

"Hogwarts at Christmas is really boring. I'm afraid only Potter, who is not wanted, would want to stay. If I had known, I would have gone back with Agares, and I could have asked Dad to take us on a trip to Egypt."

Harry, who was ridiculed as "no one wants it", clenched his fists, but he kept in mind the purpose of his visit today, and asked pretendingly curiously, "Then why don't you go back?"

Draco gave him a strange look: "Didn't I tell you that I have to stay and help the heir." Hearing this, Harry and Ron glanced at each other, and they both saw the shock on each other's faces.

Could Malfoy just tell them the truth so easily?

The two held their breath.

It's a pity that Draco's next sentence broke their thoughts, "It's a pity that the heir just doesn't show up. Is he afraid that he will be expelled? If Dumbledore wants to expel a Slytherin heir, I will definitely tell my father , the school trustees will not agree to such a ridiculous thing."

"Not Black?" Ron asked subconsciously, getting stares from Draco and Harry for that.

Draco said dissatisfiedly: "Crabbe, are you confused by candy? If Agares is, how can I not know?"

Harry also wanted to refute that Agares was not this kind of person, but unfortunately his current identity was Goyle, so he swallowed his words silently.

"Then your father didn't tell you about the Chamber of Secrets?" Harry thought quickly.Malfoy talked about his dad a lot, and Big Malfoy must know a lot.

Draco stared at another person: "Goyle, you've asked me several times!" Just when Harry thought he had been exposed, or that he couldn't get more information.Unexpectedly, Draco actually told them the news about the Chamber of Secrets.

The Chamber of Secrets was opened once 50 years ago, and a Mudblood died. When he accidentally said this term, Draco panicked for a moment, but thinking that Agares was not there, he quickly relaxed. It was just a warning Said: "Don't tell Agares that I just said that word!"

Ron and Harry nodded hurriedly, hoping he would say more about the Chamber of Secrets.

Draco lived up to their expectations and told them some things he knew, such as the fact that the person who opened the Chamber of Secrets 50 years ago has been expelled and probably locked up in Azkaban.Ron had also accidentally learned that the secret treasure of Malfoy Manor was located under the living room floor - he wished he could write to his dad right away so they could search it.

Before the Polyjuice Potion expired, Harry and the others found a reason and hurried out of the Slytherin common room.

Draco behind him only felt that Crabbe and Goyle were extraordinarily stupid tonight, but he didn't think much about it.Two second-years, or Gryffindors, using Polyjuice Potion to scoop up news in Slytherin?No one will believe it.

Coincidentally, apart from the three Gryffindors who used Polyjuice Potion to inquire about the news, Slytherin was not far behind.Agares didn't need to spend a month hiding in the abandoned girls' bathroom to brew a potion. Higgs was more than happy to provide some small conveniences for his "like-minded" allies.

In addition to compound decoction, there are many objects that are inconvenient to describe, and there are many black magic items that are strictly prohibited by the Ministry of Magic.

Agares got the relationship with the mysterious man Voldemort at the Higgs Manor. Terrence's father was a Death Eater. He joined not out of voluntary, but the choice given to them by the Dark Lord in that era was really not good. many.Surrender or die.For the continuation of the family, the Patriarch of Higgs had to kneel at the feet of the Dark Lord.

In fact, Agares didn't believe everything Big Higgs said either.If there is no benefit, who would win the Dark Lord?

However, in the more than ten years after the fall of the Dark Lord, these cunning politicians who escaped from prison gradually forgot or deliberately did not recall the dark ages.They worked hard to convince the outside world that they were innocent, poor victims of the Imperius Curse.Talking and talking, as if that was the truth, even they themselves believed it.

There are not a few people like Higgs. The real confidants of the Dark Lord either died in the war or have been imprisoned in Azkaban.Those who left these unrestrained are actually vacillating weeds.Wherever the wind is strong, it will fall on that side.

Agares believed that if the news of Voldemort's return came out, the people in front of him, including Malfoy, would be the ones who fell at his feet immediately.

Fortunately, the officials of the Ministry of Magic headed by Fudge "clarified" the news of Voldemort's return through various channels, and Agares hinted at Lucius Malfoy, which made many worried Death Eaters believe in another A different theory from Dumbledore: Voldemort has disappeared, and Dumbledore is playing tricks, trying to use the name of the Dark Lord to set off another storm in the wizarding world.

This also gave Agares an opportunity.

A group of wizards desperate to shake off their past stigma have gained power and wealth.They hope to be able to re-launch a spokesperson, this person cannot be labeled as the Dark Lord, and cannot be in the same camp as Dumbledore.This person needs to have potential and ambition, but also not out of control.

Agareth Black, this is an excellent candidate they have found at this stage.

With this shareholder wind, Agares got a lot of things he needed from this group of people.

Some of the secrets of the former Dark Lord are also in it.

Agares learned from Higgs that Voldemort is the descendant of Slytherin, and the only descendants of Slytherin known in the wizarding world are the Gaunt family. The last descendant of this family has been decades ago. Died in Azkaban, charged with killing Muggles.

The old house of the Gaunt family is in Little Hangleton, a village inhabited by Muggles.

Agares decided to check it out, but of course he didn't tell anyone.

The author has something to say:

Compound decoction is really a killer weapon. Just imagine, if someone else's face is used to do bad things, it would be a simple blame!
