The Shopkeeper of All Worlds in the British Wizarding World

Chapter 317 Accident
After completing the transaction, Harry said he didn't have that much cash for the time being.Ryan simply handed the test tube directly to Harry with great generosity, and at the same time helped him seal the tube directly into the collar of his robe and made a demonstration, telling him that he could just bite it when it was dangerous.After all, when life is in crisis, there may be no time to dig out your pockets.

Later Ryan told him that he could ask Sirius to appraise it before paying for it during the holidays.Of course, if he unfortunately uses it up during the competition, he will naturally know whether the potion is real or not.

After a while, Ginny came over and greeted everyone, then pulled Harry and said that he would give him a gift. Seeing this scene, Ryan and the others left directly with a wink.

After getting out of the three broomsticks, Ron greeted Ryan and the others and went straight to Zuko's joke shop.Ryan, on the other hand, wandered the streets with Hermione.

"Do you need to send your gift to your loved ones?" Hermione asked, pointing to the box in Ryan's hand.

"Oh, no, I mean wait a while." Ryan quickly changed the subject. "By the way, when Ginny came over just now, I felt that her perfume smelled very similar to the one you bought me. Are you sure you really gave me men's perfume last time?"

"Don't worry, I won't pick a mistake. Wait, you just said Ginny? But Ginny never wears perfume. She once told me that she would not buy any luxury goods before she worked and made money. Are you sure that The smell doesn't belong to Harry."

Hermione's rebuttal made Ryan feel a little uneasy, and he was sure again: "Does Ginny really not use perfume?"

"Yeah, why are you so concerned about whether Ginny wears perfume or not?" Hermione frowned and her face became a little ugly.

"I'm worried that something happened to Ginny." After speaking, Ryan took Hermione to the three broomsticks. Trying to make trouble against Harry. Today's incident with Ginny reminded me that the man behind the scenes can not only target Harry directly, but also target people around him."

Sure enough, when they rushed into the Three Broomsticks, they saw a group of people gathered around the door of the toilet.Ryan and Hermione looked at each other, and they both saw a trace of anxiety in each other's eyes.

"What happened here?" Ryan asked a classmate who was standing in a crowd watching the fun.

"I heard that a girl from Gryffindor passed out in the bathroom." Said the boy who was stopped by Ryan.That's when the crowd began to part, and it turned out to be Ginny Weasley on the floating stretcher.She now lies there with her eyes closed, seemingly unconscious.The sound of breathing began to be heard from the surrounding crowd.

"Don't be nervous, everyone. This girl just passed out. She will return to normal after a while." The staff of the Ministry of Magic, who were floating on the stretcher with their wands, quickly explained when they noticed that the onlookers were all staring at them.Because the Triwizard Tournament is being held recently, Hogsmeade also has many Ministry of Magic staff.

After discovering that something had happened here, those staff members rushed over immediately.After they arrived at the scene, they immediately began to treat the wounded and investigate the scene, and at the same time appease the restless onlookers around.

"If Ginny is already unconscious, who is that Ginny who just went out with Harry?" Ryan and the others thought of this question at the same time after seeing the stretcher with three broomsticks floating out, and now things are completely out of control.

"I think we should inform the professors first." Hermione calmed down and chose the most reasonable plan at this time.

As soon as they rushed out of the bar, a person stopped the two of them. Ryan didn't know the witch who was blocking the way, but she looked like a senior Hogwarts Hufflepuff for her age and robes. "Harry asked me to give this to you just now." After speaking, he took out an iron box from his pocket.

Hermione was about to reach out to pick it up, but Ryan noticed that the girl looked a little strange.He immediately thought of the Unforgivable Curse that Moody had taught that day in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and this girl's expression was as if she had been cast under the Imperius Curse.

"Don't touch this box." Ryan thought of this and took a step forward to pull Hermione's outstretched arm. Unexpectedly, the girl directly pushed the box over and touched the place where Ryan was holding Hermione's hand.

Ryan disappeared from the street as soon as his hand was touched by the iron box, and Hermione, who was also touched by the iron box, disappeared with him.

"It's not good, someone is unconscious." The people around didn't realize what happened after they discovered this situation, and saw that the senior girl who was holding the iron box before suddenly rolled her eyes and passed out in the chaos.Fortunately, the news of Ginny's coma had already reached the castle at this time. When Moody and Madam Pomfrey arrived, they saw the disappearance of Ryan and Hermione and the girl's coma.

"Get out of the way." Moody parted the chaotic crowd with his cane and bent down to pick up the girl.After waving the wand and chanting a few spells at the girl, as a golden light swept across, dark green smoke began to emit from the girl's body.

"Damn it, the curse of the black wizard." Moody immediately saw the reason for the girl's coma, and he began to release the counter-curse on the girl. "Madame Pomfrey, my spell can only temporarily stop the situation from getting worse. Now you need to send her to St. Munger's as soon as possible. The Hogwarts hospital may not be able to handle it."

"What about you? Alastor." Madam Pomfrey stepped forward to take over Moody's work and began to release the counter-curse on the girl.Looking at Madam Pomfrey who was trying to leave, she asked directly.

"I'm going to find out what happened. This kind of thing is probably a conspiracy." Moody replied in a very serious tone, "Since Harry was inexplicably selected as a warrior, I feel something is wrong. Now I want to see what kind of tricks those people behind the scenes are playing."

After speaking, Moody began to ask the audience around him.Many Ministry of Magic staff around them grew up listening to Moody's stories, and even older wizards and Moody had worked together.So after figuring out what he was doing, many staff members of the Ministry of Magic also joined the ranks of questioning the surrounding witnesses.

It's a pity that the witnesses just didn't notice Ryan and the others.Only two girls who were close said they heard Ryan yelling at Hermione, "Don't touch that box." But the two of them disappeared.

"This should be the use of a Portkey to kidnap people." After summarizing the testimony of all witnesses, Moody concluded, "Unfortunately, we don't know anything except this. Including the purpose of the attacker, whoever the attacker is I don't know. Now we have to wait for the unconscious person to wake up before we can continue to ask."

Moody immediately returned to Hogwarts, because Ginny was simply hit by a stun spell, so when Moody rushed to the school hospital, Ginny had already woken up under the effect of the counter-curse.But she also looked dazed, because she was attacked while holding water to wash her face, and she didn't see who the attacker was at all.

The investigation was in trouble for a while, and suddenly there was a noise from the entrance of the school hospital, breaking the awkward silence.It turned out that after two people passed out one after another, the school ordered all the students in Hogsmeade to return to the castle immediately, and the brothers of the Weasley family immediately ran to visit their sister when they heard that there was an unconscious person who was their sister. , and ended up arguing with several Ministry of Magic staff guarding the door.

"Let them in," said Moody. "Their sister is all right, and I've pretty much asked all I need to know."
