[Comprehensive HP colleagues] That year

Lily really couldn't figure out what happened to Huffman.She silently exited her room, went outside, and told Sirius she couldn't help with it.

Sirius actually didn't expect anything at all, but he still sighed after hearing the words.Lily said at this time that she was going to the library, and James pestered him to go too. Sirius was not in the mood to care about their enemies at this time, so he wanted to go back to the dormitory to quiet himself.

However, when he reached the fourth floor, he suddenly found a group of people gathered in front of him, as if something big had happened.He squeezed forward, the scene in front of him made him dumbfounded.

He saw Lynn standing in the middle of the crowd with a pale face, tightly clenched on her wand with pale knuckles, and under her feet was the unconscious administrator Apollion Prinlo, who fell to the ground, bright red The blood slowly oozes from the hideous wound of the seven purple and black letters on his forehead.

"MUDBLOO" is missing a "D" and the "O" is out of shape, but everyone knows it's a "Mudblood" (1).

"What's going on?" Sirius stepped forward and grabbed Lynn's cold hand.Lynn immediately grabbed it back, as if catching a piece of driftwood in the rushing water.

"It's not me, Sirius, it's really not me." Lynn said with trembling lips.

"We saw you cast a spell on Mr. Prinlow with our own eyes, and you were caught on the spot. What else can we argue?" A sixth-grade Ravenclaw on the side heard Lynn's words and asked loudly.

"No...it's not...that's just a hemostatic spell..." Lynn shook her head desperately, Sirius held her hand tightly, whispered "I believe in you", and then stepped forward to face Pu Lin Luo chanted the Hemostatic Curse aloud, but the wound on Priin Luo's forehead not only did not stop bleeding, but worsened.

"As you can see, ordinary hemostatic spells can only make the blood flow more and more, which shows that Lynn is not lying," Sirius said loudly, "The most urgent thing is to send him to the hospital as soon as possible."

"Sirius is right," just at this moment, the Ravenclaw prefect Anthony Goldstein said, "I am the prefect, and I will report this matter to the professor. They make judgments. Now, Sirius Black and I are going to send Mr. Prinlow to the school hospital, so everyone should leave first, and I will inform everyone later if there is anything to do."

At the moment, most of the onlookers were Ravenclaws, and everyone gave their prefects a lot of face, so Anthony, Sirius, and Lynn sent Primlow to the school hospital together.

Madam Pomfrey was treating Primlow, Anthony went to notify the principal, and Sirius stood at the entrance of the school hospital, asking what happened to Lynn.But Lynn just lowered his head and shook his head, his trembling arms tightly wrapped around his chest.Sirius asked for a long time, but only the two names "Avery" and "Mulciber" came out.

Just then, Headmaster Dumbledore arrived.

"Miss Bruce, I heard from Mr. Goldstein that you were the only one who was there when everyone found Mr. Primlow. Can you tell us what happened?"

Lynn was still trembling with his hair lowered, and Sirius became more and more puzzled, just being seen at the scene, Lynn shouldn't be so scared.However, he still answered Dumbledore's words for Lynn: "Linn just told me that it was Avery and Mulciber".

"Why the two of them again?" Professor Flitwick, who came with Dumbledore, said with a frown.

"Filius, please go find Horace for me and ask him to call those two students to the principal's office."

"Okay, I'll go right now."

So, 10 minutes later, Avery, Mulciber, Sirius, Lynn, Anthony, Headmaster Dumbledore, Professor Flitwick and Professor Slughorn were sitting in the headmaster's office.

"What happened? Why did you call us here?" Mulciber and Avery asked in unison.

"Oh, that's right. Not long ago, Mr. Primlow was attacked. Miss Bruce told us that this incident has something to do with the two of you."

"How is it possible! When the incident happened, we were able to stay in the Slytherin lounge, and all the students in the lounge could testify for us!"

"That's right, I said Bruce, you are too vicious. No matter whether you attacked Mr. Primlow or not, you can't pour dirty water on us for self-protection!" Mulciber and Avery Singing and singing together, Sirius became angry when he saw it.

"Do you think this is pouring dirty water on you? I thought you would think it was putting gold on your face. Aren't you always proud of persecuting Muggle-born wizards?" Sirius said sharply said sarcastically.

"Mr. Principal, Black and Bruce are slandering!" Mulciber shouted immediately.

"Whether it is slander or not, it is too early to draw conclusions." Dumbledore said calmly.

"Principal Dumbledore, with all due respect, you are simply prejudiced against Avery and me. Every time someone in the school has an accident, you suspect that we did it. Well, since you don't believe us, check us wand to see if we have done anything illegal."

Professor Flitwick took the wands of the two, and said several "spell backtracking" to them respectively, but none of them was the soul-imprinted black magic that caused Primlow's injury.

"You volunteered to check your wands, of course you were prepared, don't think I don't know that many of you Slytherin have spare wands." Sirius said disdainfully, he couldn't see the complacent look of those two .

"What's wrong with having spare wands? Is it against the law to have spare wands? Besides, why only check our wands? I heard that Bruce was only seen at the scene when it happened. Shouldn't you check her wands? "

"Check, just check, who is afraid of you, Lynn, your devil..." Sirius turned around and asked Lynn for a wand, but he stopped halfway through the conversation, because he found that her complexion was now as pale as paper, Lips trembled like fallen leaves in a violent wind.This is not normal, and Sirius had an intuition that this matter might not be as simple as he had imagined before.

Sirius was not the only one who noticed Lynn's complexion was wrong, the professors also noticed it.They all stared at Lynn, and Lynn couldn't bear the stares, and finally stood up, trying to control his trembling voice, and said, "Don't check, my wand, the penultimate charm is that Black magic, but I really don't want...it's...the Imperius Curse!!!"

The principal's office was quiet, and everyone was stunned by the last word.

Sirius was the first to speak: "You mean, Avery and Mulciber cast an Imperius Curse on you, asking you to give Prinlo..."

"Blake, you can't talk nonsense." Avery immediately interrupted him, "And Bruce, you have to think clearly before you speak, don't think that you will be safe by framing the two of us, even if we go to jail , someone in Slytherin will avenge us!"

"Shut up, Avery!" Sirius stood up abruptly, how dare they threaten so blatantly in front of the professor?

Avery kept his mouth shut, but his viper-like eyes were fixed on Lynn.Dumbledore coughed, and he reluctantly averted his eyes.

Everyone looked at Lin En again. Lin En was silent for a long time, as if she was having a very violent struggle in her heart. Then, she slowly said, "I don't know... I don't know who robbed me. Soul curse."

"Lyn?! Why do you..." Sirius looked at Lynn in shock, as if he couldn't believe that such words would come out of her mouth, "You clearly said in the school hospital that it was..."

"I was in a trance at the time, and my memory was wrong..." She murmured, not daring to look up at anyone.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Anthony went to open it, only to see Madam Pomfrey standing outside.

"Apollyon is awake," Madam Pomfrey said. "You said you'd tell you when he woke up, so I'm here. It's just that he seems to have forgotten all about it and doesn't remember who attacked him." killed him."

Things are at an impasse.

Dumbledore finally stood up, he raised his wand, and cast a spell on Lynn, a strange purple light appeared on Lynn's body, but it was fleeting.

Everyone looked at the principal in bewilderment.

"This is an ancient rune specially used to test the Imperius Curse. As long as a person has been cast with the Imperius Curse within an hour, it can be tested. It seems that Miss Bruce is indeed not the culprit. All of you Get out first, I want to speak to Mr. Avery and Mr. Mulciber alone."

After listening to Dumbledore's words, everyone got up and prepared to leave, only Professor Slughorn refused to leave slowly.

"Horras, you are like this, are you afraid that I will eat them? If you are really worried, you can stay. There are some things, and you can be a witness." Dumbledore said.

Everyone left, and there were only four people left in the principal's office.Avery and Mulciber sat on chairs opposite the headmaster, stared on pins and needles by Dumbledore's penetrating gaze.

"Dumbledore..." Slughorn wanted to rescue the two students, but Dumbledore raised his hand, got up, walked to a corner of the cabinet, and found a small bottle of potion by rummaging through the cabinet.

As a potions teacher, Slughorn knew immediately what Dumbledore was going to do when he saw the clear potion.There are many transparent medicines in the world, but as far as he knows, there is only one medicine that is as clear and transparent as water...

"Do you know what this is?" Dumbledore held up the bottle of potion for the two students to see.

Avery and Mulciber shook their heads, but an ominous premonition arose in their hearts.

"This is Veritaserum, I thought, perhaps you've heard of it," said Dumbledore quietly.

Avery and Mulciber immediately yelled: "You can't give us Veritaserum! Don't bully us. We don't know that it is against the law to use Veritaserum without the approval of the Ministry of Magic!"

"Yes, yes, approval is required." Dumbledore murmured, "Horace, maybe you can explain to them why I can use Veritaserum directly."

Slughorn's face was extremely ugly. "Every Hogwarts headmaster is given some discretion when he takes office, and Veritaserum is one of them. If the headmaster thinks that something is going on in the school that is serious enough to warrant the use of Veritaserum, he can use backward magic first. Ministry report," he explained reluctantly.

Avery and Mulciber turned pale, how could Hogwarts have such a broken rule?

The faces of the two fell into Slughorn's eyes, which made him feel cold. Could it be that the two of them really did what happened this time?This is too daring, that is the Imperius Curse!

"I have been the headmaster for 20 years, and I have never used this. To be honest, I don't want to set a precedent for you." Dumbledore's voice was still calm and terrifying, "But I must know the truth, otherwise I will have no face Mr. Prinlow, also can't explain to the school trustees. If you are willing to take the initiative to tell me the truth, I can assure you that I will let this matter stop with me and not report to the Ministry of Magic. You should know that the attack That’s all for the faculty and staff, and using the Imperius Curse to harm people is a crime for Azkaban to be imprisoned for more than ten years.”

Avery and Mulciber sat livid, unable to utter a word.

Seeing that they were silent, Dumbledore continued: "Mr. Mulciber, that time you framed Miss Macdonald, you said you didn't know it was black magic, and you just wanted to make a joke. To be honest, I don't Believe me, but I still gave you a chance. 50 points and a year of confinement, such a punishment is really too light for the damage suffered by Miss Macdonald. I thought you would restrain yourself, no Thinking of you getting worse now. Mr. Avery, so are you. Actually, I could just use Veritaserum directly on you, but I want to give you one last chance. I know, once I report that someone used the Imperius Curse , that person will probably go further and further down the road of crime and never turn back. I don't want that. But how to do it is up to you to decide."

Avery and Mulciber were not unshakable in their hearts, but they still insisted on face.Seeing them like this, Dumbledore took out two cups, poured water into them, and said while pouring: "Since you all refuse to admit it, then I probably made a mistake in my judgment. You are indeed innocent. In this case, Surely you will not be afraid to drink Veritaserum. With the testimony of your headmaster, I will never ask about your privacy. After you drink Veritaserum, I will only ask questions related to the Imperius Curse... As he said, he raised the bottle of Veritaserum, making a gesture to pour it into the water glass.

"I admit it." Mulciber finally succeeded.

"And you, Mr. Avery?"

"I...I also admit..." Avery resigned himself to his fate, and murmured.

Slughorn covered his face in shame: "Dumbledore, I didn't manage my students well. How are you... planning to deal with them?"

"Three hundred points will be deducted from each of them, and they will be locked up until they graduate. In addition, they will be disqualified from going to Hogsmeade." Dumbledore said without doubt.

"You can't do this!" "Then Slytherin's points are not all deducted?" "You are deliberately suppressing Slytherin!" Mulciber and Avery immediately retorted loudly, but Slug Horn yelled back: "The principal is lenient enough to you! You could have been expelled just for assaulting the faculty and staff! Are you still ashamed to bargain? I don't know how to face Apollyon from now on. , you two are just... almost..." He couldn't even speak at the end.

Dumbledore watched Slughorn training the students and shook his head helplessly. "Okay, Horace, I'll teach you a lesson, and I'll talk about it when you get back. Now, Mr. Mulciber, Mr. Avery, I need both of you to leave a complete memory of this incident..."

The silver-white substance spread out and spun in the Pensieve, and Dumbledore plunged into it.He came to a dim corridor, the protagonist of the memory, two boys in silver-green robes were hiding in the shadows, they were spying on the administrator of Hogwarts and another Slytherin.

Lynn, who was chased by Sirius to the top of the North Tower, stood face to face with Sirius, relatively speechless.

(1) The soul engraving is taken from "Fire and Sunshine" Chapter 71 "Black Magic Attack Incident", but the one who was attacked there was Mary.

The author has something to say: I added a bit of drama to the principal, I don't know if he was written down.In fact, I have always avoided writing about Deng Xiao. I feel that writing his words seriously is too difficult to grasp.
