Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 1184 does not require evidence

"woke up?"

   “It felt like a nightmare.”

  Cedric opened his eyes, looked at Fred beside him who was peeling an apple to eat for himself, and suddenly didn't know what to say.

"do you want to eat?"

   "Where is this? You saved me?"

   "Hogwarts."

  George took the knife from Fred and began to peel apples for himself.

   "After we got the news, we contacted Albert and fished you out in time."

   "Tell me what's going on?" Albert asked as he put down the latest issue of the newspaper.

   "It was Valad. He betrayed me and told the Death Eaters about it." Cedric closed his eyes and said with a complicated expression.

   "Valad probably got the Imperius Curse, your luck is really not very good." Fred gloated a little: "You have encountered such a bad thing, I really don't know what to say about you."

   "This is for you... it can reduce the impact of the Cruciatus Curse." Albert put a bottle of potion in front of Cedric and asked, "Do you need us to help you?"

   "Still, let's find Qiu to feed you."

"Those guys are really disgusting. I've already cooperated very well, but they still use the Cruciatus Curse on me." Cedric cursed in a low voice, and the feeling was uncomfortable, "If I catch them, they have to try it too." Taste the Cruciatus Curse."

   "It's illegal to use the Cruciatus Curse," Lee Jordan kindly reminded.

   "Also, we avenged you." Fred continued.

   "The group of guys who caught you will probably be dead in a few days." George comforted with a smile, "Anyway, you don't need to think about revenge."

   "How many secrets have you revealed." Albert asked directly.

"I told you the location of the stronghold, and the news that you have returned to the UK, and... about joining the Defense Association." Cedric looked at Albert and continued, "The main reason they kept me was because they wanted to Let me help you find the headquarters of the Defense Society.

   "By the way, I have something to tell you. Bellatrix was not killed by the Ministry of Magic, so you may not be able to return to work at the Ministry of Magic." Albert said suddenly.

   "Does this matter have anything to do with Bellatrix?"

   Cedric really couldn't understand what Bellatrix had to do with his inability to return to the Ministry of Magic.

"That crazy woman wants to kill me like crazy, maybe other Death Eaters will not dare to trouble you because they are afraid of being a trap, but that crazy woman will definitely trouble you and try to force me out of you. whereabouts."

"If you don't want to cause trouble for your family, the best way is to hide and just disappear, just like Fred and George, so as not to leave any openings for the Death Eaters." Albert said softly, "Of course, if If you regret joining us, I can arrange for you to hide abroad for a while until this war is over before returning to England."

   "Do you know anyone abroad?"

   "You should say that even hiding abroad is not safe." Fred waved his wand, and the apple core disappeared.

"In the United States, English is spoken everywhere. Of course, you may not like that country, and in fact I don't like it either." Albert shrugged: "Actually, I don't think they should go too far, but They're the minions of the Death Eaters, and it's hard to say what those vicious thugs will do."

   "If you choose to go back to work at the Ministry and get caught again, don't expect me to rescue you."

   "Are you giving me a vaccination?" Cedric had a strange expression.

"The mysterious man seems to want to kill me very much, so he may re-weave a new trap and use my friends, lovers and relatives to find me and kill me." Albert said softly, "Of course, I never Give them that chance."

  Cedric opened his mouth, and he understood what Albert meant.

"The mysterious person seems to have appeared tonight, but we retreated quickly, so we didn't run into each other. Bellatrix was rescued because of this, and he was not killed by the Auror team of the Ministry of Magic." Lee Jordan reminded softly road.

   "It seems that a lot of things happened in the meantime." Cedric sighed softly. Although the nerve pain was relieved after drinking the potion, he still felt very uncomfortable.

   "Okay, maybe we should discuss Cedric's question first." Albert asked seriously: "Are you going to the United States?"

   "I'm not going to hide." Cedric shook his head.

   "Don't take any chances." Fred couldn't help frowning, "Then no one will rescue you next time."

   "Don't play dead." Lee Jordan echoed.

   "If you are caught again next time, it will definitely be a trap." George explained seriously, "No one will step into it stupidly knowing it is a trap."

"We will not interfere with your choice. At most, we will give you some suggestions." Albert raised his hand to signal the three of them to be quiet, and said to Cedric calmly, "Recently you are recuperating at Hogwarts, St. The Gomo Injury Hospital is not safe."

   "Do you think the mysterious person will use me to deal with you?" Cedric asked suddenly.

   "Because you were rescued soon, as long as the mysterious man is not an idiot, he can guess that I saved you, so your current situation is actually similar to the three of them." Albert explained.

   "I want to hear your advice," Cedric said.

"Hide with them and work hard to defeat the mysterious man." Albert comforted, "If you want to return to the Ministry of Magic to work in the future, you can wait for the mysterious man to be defeated. The British Ministry of Magic will definitely welcome you, and Your promotion will also go smoothly."

   "Sounds good."

   "You can also use this time to get in touch with Qiu Zhang." Albert reminded kindly, "Remember to dictate a letter to your family, don't make them anxious."

   "Can I ask a question?"

"Just ask."

   "Why does the mysterious man hate you so much?" Cedric asked his doubts.

   "Actually, we also want to know."

  Fred, George and Lee Jordan all looked at Albert with smiles.

"Because I can predict the future and because I am strong, the mysterious man is afraid of me, afraid that I will discover his weakness, and afraid that I will kill him." Albert curled his lips and said, "Although I think his worries are a bit unnecessary , Harry Potter is the savior after all, and he should be afraid of Harry, not me."

   "Weakness?" Cedric raised his eyebrows and asked, "You know the weakness of the mysterious man."

"The so-called weakness actually refers to the secret of the mysterious man's immortality." Albert explained, "Only by turning the mysterious man into a mortal again can we have a chance to kill him. Before that, any attempt to kill him It's all stupid."

   "Do you know?" Cedric asked with wide eyes, "Do you know the secret of You-Know-Who's immortality?"

   "You have to ask Dumbledore about this matter, I think only he knows best." Albert did not answer this question directly: "We just need to be patient and wait for the result, and there is..."

   Albert took out a large bottle of potion from nowhere and poured it directly on Cedric's face.

Fred, George, and Lee Jordan were all stunned, obviously not understanding what Albert was doing, but they quickly pulled out their wands, and reached out to help Albert hold the struggling Cedric, anyway There must be a reason for Albert to do that.

   "What's going on?" Fred asked puzzled.

   "It should be the Imperius Curse." Albert said, looking at Cedric.

"you sure?"

  The three of them were very surprised, and George even took Cedric's wand from the table.

   "Even if the judgment is wrong, it will only waste a bottle of potion." Albert looked at Cedric's reaction, and became more and more sure that this guy was under the Imperius Curse.

   "It's really cunning, I was almost deceived."

   "Who do you think used the Imperius Curse on him?"

   "Don't know, but we must have encountered a crafty fellow."

"Is your potion reliable? Do you want another bottle, in case he fails to escape the control of the Imperius Curse." George looked at Cedric's distressed appearance and turned to ask Albert, a spy controlled by the Imperius Curse It was too scary to mingle among them.

"Wait a little longer, I believe Cedric will definitely be able to break free from the Imperius Curse." Albert looked at Cedric, seemed to remember something, and said suddenly, "It seems that we still have to find time to train in the future to strengthen the ability to resist Resistance to the Imperius Curse."

   "Does it work?"

   "It definitely works, at least it can easily resist the crappy Imperius Curse."

   "Damn, what's going on, and can you let me go?"

   "It seems that you have woken up." The four looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

   "Maybe, though, we'd better test it again."

   "No, I'm awake, thank you, and what's on my face." Cedric wiped his cheeks with a handkerchief, and asked angrily.

   "It seems to be a potion that can wash away the curse." George explained, "Albert uses it to wash away the Imperius Curse on you."

   "Who controls you." Albert asked his doubts.

   "A Death Eater, he wears a mask."

   "After you recover, train with us." Fred patted Cedric on the shoulder and said, "If it's the three of us, we won't be easily ambushed."

   "They have a bunch of people." Cedric said dissatisfiedly, "I knocked down several."

   "You can retreat strategically." George reminded, "Ensuring your own safety is the most important thing."

   "What about the recruitment?"

"Let's do this first, and we'll talk about it later. Anyway, it's not a rush." ​​Albert said without hesitation, "Of course, you can cooperate with Harry Potter and help train Hogwarts students. , I believe there will be a group of people who are willing to join us and fight against the mysterious person together."

"how about you?"

   "Of course I have my own business to be busy!" Albert said lightly, "Besides, the mysterious person is likely to lock my location through divination, so I have to hide for a while."

"By the way, there is one thing I have to emphasize again. It is not a good choice to face the mysterious man until he finds his weakness. So what we need to do now is to slowly accumulate strength and wait for the time to counterattack. On that day It's not far away, so you have to be patient now."

   "Well, if that's the case..." Cedric reluctantly agreed.

"I'm actually curious, how did you realize that Cedric was controlled by the Imperius Curse." George asked the doubt in his heart, which was also the doubt of Fred and Lee Jordan. The Imperius Curse is generally difficult to be controlled. Discovered, at least in a short period of time, it is difficult for people to detect something is wrong.

   "Intuition, not everything needs evidence."

   "Cedric, are you okay?"

  At this moment, a figure rushed in from the outside, and came to Cedric's hospital bed like a whirlwind.

  Qiu Zhang looked at his boyfriend worriedly.

   "It's okay, I just ran into some trouble." Cedric coughed lightly.

   "Talk slowly, we will leave first!"

  The four of them cast ambiguous glances at Cedric one after another, got up and prepared to leave.

   "By the way, remember to send a letter to your family, don't let them worry." Albert stopped and turned his head to remind.

As soon as the four of them walked out of the ward, they saw Dobby the house elf standing outside waiting for them. After seeing Albert, he immediately bowed slightly to him and said, "Mr. Anderson, Principal Dumbledore asked me to tell you, He hopes to invite you to a cup of afternoon tea and is waiting for you in the principal's office now."

   "I see, Dobby, please send the three of them back first!" Albert was a little surprised by Dumbledore's request, and smiled to the house elf.

   "Okay sir." Dobby held out his hand towards Fred, "Three gentlemen, let's go."

   "Remember to keep in touch," George said.

  The three disappeared immediately.
