Chapter 69
Chapter 68: April 20
In addition to a large number of books, there are other items in Professor McGonagall’s office.
On the right wall, there is an old flying broom – Comet 200.
William carefully looked at the history of the broom, and remembered that it was a broom that was launched in 1940.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is an antique.
This is obviously the broom that Professor McGonagall used when he was on the Gryffindor Quidditch team.
Even now, she still keeps this broom. Next to the broom, there is also a poster with the Montrose Magpies.
The Montrose Magpies were once the most successful team in the British and Irish leagues, winning the UEFA Cup 32 times and the European Cup twice.
However, this team has long since fallen, but Professor McGonagall retains her girlhood star-chasing hobby.
On the wall behind Professor McGonagall, there is a group photo: a slightly younger McGonagall and a wizard that William does not know.
While William was observing the office, a worried Professor McGonagall finally picked up a piece of parchment, and after writing a lot of content with a quill pen, sealed the envelope and handed it to a white owl at the window.
After the owl kissed Mag affectionately, it spread its wings and flew high, quickly left Hogwarts, and disappeared into the sky.
Professor McGonagall held her head and seemed to have a headache. She sat in the chair for a while and finally said: “William, I have written to Professor Dumbledore. Even if he receives it, he will participate in the trial at night. I’ll be back in the morning.”
William immediately stopped looking around and nodded honestly.
Professor McGonagall stared at William and continued, “My child, don’t tell anyone what you know today. It may involve the lives of three innocent people.”
Three innocent people, Snape, Hagrid, and Robert.
William knew the importance. He nodded and said seriously, “Professor, I won’t tell anyone. Please notify me immediately when Professor Dumbledore returns.”
Professor McGonagall hesitated for a moment, glanced at the ring on William’s index finger, and said, “I can’t take off that ring either. I think Professor Dumbledore will have a solution. You don’t have to worry too much.”
William felt that McGonagall was just comforting him, but he still got up and was about to leave. When he was about to go out, he suddenly turned his head and asked, “Professor McGonagall, can I ask? Why was Professor Snape taken away? , is it just because he is suspected of committing a crime?”
Professor McGonagall hesitated, wondering if she should tell William, but after a while, she relieved her breath and sighed: “On Tywin, a black magic wound was found.
When the Auror used the Flashback Charm to check his wand, he found that it was the magic from Professor Snape’s wand. ”
No wonder… William suddenly realized.
It seems that there was a conflict with Snape outside of Professor Tywin’s entry into the Room of Requirement.
Then the question arises again, why did the two fight?
William turned to leave and returned to the Ravenclaw lounge alone.
Standing at the wooden door, he found that the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker was really gone, replaced by a huge hole.
The students still don’t know what happened. They just thought that the door knocker was stolen again, and the deans also asked the four colleges to close the door of the common room and not to go out. Therefore, everyone also eats dinner in each dormitory.
After returning to the dormitory, William just inferred some things and did not answer anyone’s inquiries.
Until late at night, he was lying in bed, sipping bobo tea, and thinking about the daytime things carefully.
He was holding a Marauder’s map in his hand, still without Dumbledore and Snape’s names on it.
Likewise, there are no names of Professors Robert and Tywin.
The night was thick, William slowly fell asleep, the ring on his index finger, without warning, emitted a royal blue light.
In the dark night, it is like a star.
Several people and a cat fell asleep, and no one found a dormitory in Ravenclaw, which was bright as day.
Deep underground, in the Hogwarts dungeon, the lake was turbulent, and the golden compass on the shore slowly turned in a circle.
After an unknown amount of time, everything calmed down again, as if nothing had happened.
In the early morning, William woke up on time.
He sat up and looked around, Bobo Cha didn’t know where he ran, and the ring on his finger reminded him that what happened yesterday was not a farce.
William rubbed his face, stood up, washed quickly, rolled up the Marauder’s map, and put it in his pocket, ready to find Cedric.
When he left the dormitory and entered the common room, the scene in front of him made him dumbfounded.
Many young wizards are gathering in a heated atmosphere, discussing the Quidditch final, and that scene seems to be a rematch today.
William frowned and found Qiu in the crowd.
The girl is sitting on the sofa, playing with a hat with a little Hufflepuff badge on it.
Carrying her wand, she tried to use Transfiguration to make the little badger move, no doubt…it failed.
William sat down next to him, and UU Reading www.uukanshu.com asked in a low voice, “Qiu, what’s going on, didn’t Professor Flitwick inform the finals of the cancellation?”
Qiu was taken aback for a moment, and with a stab of his wand, the hat flew out and hit Marietta on the head.
“The finals are canceled, who did you hear? Professor Flitwick didn’t inform you.”
Marietta put the hat on her head, and she laughed loudly: “William, are you sleepy, today is the final, how could it be cancelled?
Well, you can still see the layout of the Quidditch pitch from here, look! ”
Following Marietta’s gaze, from the huge French windows of Ravenclaw Tower, William saw the scene of the Quidditch match in the distance.
Hagrid was carrying the microphone and preparing to put it on the podium, while Mrs. Hooch was checking the venue’s security facilities.
Professor McGonagall was standing in front of the Gryffindor auditorium, holding a wand, and was designing a roaring lion.
There must be something wrong!
William was stunned in place, and after a while, he asked in hindsight, “What’s the number today?”
“April 20th.” Qiu said.
No, yesterday was April 20th, and today should be the 21st!
William hurriedly took out the Marauder’s Map, and after speaking the secret order, a large number of names were displayed on it.
His heart was beating violently, as if it was about to explode from his chest.
On the map, he saw Robert’s name at the door of the lounge; saw Professor Tywin in the office; saw Dumbledore; saw Snape…
William was completely messed up.
