The Shopkeeper of All Worlds in the British Wizarding World

Chapter 544 Tracking (asking for subscription, asking for collection, asking for ticket)
"Why did you call me out in such a hurry?" Hermione was full of curiosity. She just went to the library after class and before she could write a word, she was pulled out by Ryan with a mysterious face. people in the hallway.

"I found a suspicious point in the previous two attacks." Ryan said, and Hermione immediately cheered up when she heard this sentence. "You found something suspicious? That's great, can you tell me what exactly you found?"

"The Three Broomsticks Tavern." Ryan didn't give a damn. "It was in the toilet of the Three Broomsticks that Katie was attacked, and the bottle of mead came from the Three Broomsticks."

"You mean someone tampered with in the Three Broomsticks? This can indeed greatly narrow the scope of investigation." Hermione thought for a while. "Although there are many people in the three broomsticks, it is at least more convenient to catch that person than to search aimlessly now."

"We can further narrow the circle of suspicion," Lane added. "If anyone who goes into a bar to attack Katie in the bathroom can do it, it's not so easy to put poison in the drink. At least most people who go into the bar to drink can't touch those things. Wine ready to be sent elsewhere."

"In this way, the scope of suspicion is narrowed down to the bar staff, the people who bring alcohol into Hogwarts, and the regular customers of the Three Broomsticks who are rarely able to enter the wine cellar." Like our fourth grade, the staff in the bar were impersonated, right?"

"Or the Imperius Curse, or even having to do it because a relative was kidnapped." Ryan added. "I think even if we find the person behind the attack, we may not be able to catch the real culprit. There are too many ways wizards can use to control a person."

"Okay, don't worry about this matter." Seeing Hermione fell into deep thought after hearing what he said, Ryan interrupted, "The next thing is not for us to have a headache, we just need to report this to Principal, Principal Dumbledore will naturally find a way to solve the current problem. Even if the real culprit cannot be caught, I think the attack can be stopped."

In fact, as he said, after Ryan and the others sent a thick analysis letter to the principal with an owl, news spread in the school the next day that Mrs. Rosmerta had to go to St. Mungo for recuperation due to a sudden illness. .

"This means that the Three Broomsticks may need to be closed for a while, which sounds really bad." During lunch, Seamus expressed his opinion at the table.

"But it has nothing to do with us," Dean said dejectedly. "Because I've heard people say that our Hogsmeade Day has been canceled indefinitely until the situation is uncertain."

"Ah—" There were sighs from the long table of Gryffindors, because there had been one bad news after another for them recently.Whether it's the Gryffindor Quidditch team being attacked by two men in a row or Hogsmeade Day's indefinite suspension, it's all very bad for everyone.

On the morning of the match against Hufflepuff, Ron was finally allowed to be discharged from the hospital. With the help of Lavender, he walked out of the school hospital slowly. sensitive.

"Harry and Ginny were going to pick you up, but you knew they were going to play soon. So the two of us managed to persuade them to go to the stadium. You don't blame us for that, do you?" Ryan explained.

"Of course I can understand that this game is very important. Especially now that McLaggen is always giving others a lesson, thinking that he can be better than the rest of us in any position. I can't imagine this kind of combination with other teammates How can people who come together play this game well—”

Ron became more and more excited as he spoke, and soon a red cloud appeared on his cheeks.Seeing this, Lavender immediately squeezed his hand hard to interrupt his long speech. "Although Madam Pomfrey thinks that you have recovered, she thinks that you should not be too excited during this time. She even specifically told me that you must not watch this match."

"Ryan, is there any way you can get me to watch this game?" Ron looked at Ryan pitifully, but Ryan was unmoved. "What you need now is to rest. If you don't want to leave any sequelae, I suggest that you should just listen to Madam Pomfrey."

The four of them walked through the deserted corridor.The whole school was out, sitting in the stadium or heading there.So the corridor seemed empty, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps around the front corner.

Ryan looked vigilantly at the corner where the sound came from, and it turned out that Malfoy was walking towards them, accompanied by two lower-grade Slytherin girls, one of whom had a sullen expression on his face.

After seeing Ryan and the others, Malfoy stopped suddenly, but he didn't provoke them with bloodline and other reasons as usual, but continued walking forward with a short dry laugh.

"Where are you going?" Ron asked loudly.

"Ah, a child of a pure-blood traitor family." Malfoy sneered, "I don't think there is anything I need to report to you. Judging by your appearance, you should have just come out of the school hospital, right? But don't let yourself Send it in again."

One girl gave a forced laugh, but everyone else's faces were tense.Ron looked very angry, as if he was about to punch Malfoy, but Ravendra held him back.

Probably because of Lavender, Ron didn't struggle anymore.Malfoy walked past them with his head held high like a victorious general, and the two girls trotted after him, turning the corner and disappearing.

After confirming that Malfoy and the others had disappeared, Ron suddenly turned his head and whispered to Ryan: "Didn't Harry tell us what Malfoy was doing sneakily? It seems to be the case now. Otherwise, he wouldn't be here Wandering around the castle with two guys while the whole school was out watching football. So can you two follow them and see what Malfoy is up to?"

"Of course." Ryan nodded, "But you have to make sure that you won't go to the court. I don't want to hear the news that you were sent to the school hospital again."

"I promise in the name of my mother, I will go back to the common room to rest immediately, and I will never step out of the castle during this game." Ron raised a hand and solemnly swore, and then he put it down and said: " Follow him quickly, or you will lose him in a while."

"Don't worry, I will watch Ronald." Lavender also promised, so Ryan and Hermione nodded to them, and then chased towards the corner where Malfoy disappeared just now.

Malfoy was really cautious. Even if there was no one in the castle at this time, he went around many circles, and finally disappeared completely in an empty corridor, which made Ryan and Hermione lose their target.

"What's going on?" Hermione asked Ryan after asking about several portraits on the wall.

"I guess they have some magical props that can make them invisible. They came to this corridor to completely escape the surveillance in the school. It seems that Malfoy is indeed planning something that is not good for Hogwarts." Ryan turned his head and said.

"Then what should we do now?" Hermione asked. She thought that there was no one in the castle now, which would be a good opportunity to stop Malfoy, but she didn't expect Malfoy to use other methods to escape.

"We can only wait for the next opportunity." Ryan shrugged. Anyway, when he went to the Response Room to check the disappearance cabinet, he found that Malfoy was indeed repairing this thing, but there is still a long time before it is repaired. They have enough time to go scouting.Not to mention that Ryan's hands, feet and traps on the disappearing cabinet were not triggered, which means that even if Malfoy repaired the disappearing cabinet with an idea, it would not cause much harm to the school.

That's why Ryan didn't report it directly. He hoped that the added disappearing cabinet could surprise the intruders.
