Magical Studies at Hogwarts

Chapter 315 Charges
As if possessed by a demon, Katie floated in the air at a height of more than three meters, waving her limbs violently and uncontrollably.

Her friend Lini was terrified, clutching at Katie's ankle, screaming like her.

Harry and Ron hurried over to help Lini pull Katie down. Hermione waved her hand, and a spell fell on Katie, causing her to fall directly to the ground.Seeing this, Lini and Harry hurriedly held her limbs, but it was difficult for them to control her, as Katie was twisting too much.

"What should I do? Hermione, is there a way?" Harry shouted, holding Katie's legs tightly with his hands, and within a short while of talking, his face was hit by Katie's knees several times.

"No, I don't recognize what kind of curse it is!" Hermione took out her wand and directed a red light at the sky, "Hold on, someone will come over soon!"

"Better hurry up, I can't hold on anymore!" Ron was caught by Katie's hand several times while speaking.

Within a minute of Hermione's signal, someone came over.Looking at the huge figure, he knew that it was Hagrid, and in the direction of Hogsmeade, Tonks and a few guys he didn't know also surrounded him, and there were many students who followed the signal and ran over.

"What's the matter? What's the matter?" Hagrid shouted loudly, and with a big wave of his hand, he pulled away the students who were watching, stared at Katie for a few moments, and bent down to hug her without saying a word. , turned around and ran towards the castle.Beside, Tonks and those Aoruo also started to disperse the students who were watching.

When everyone dispersed, Tonks came over with a frown. Seeing Lini who was crying and Harry and the others who were comforting her, he asked, "Who can tell me what's going on? How could she fall in love?" Such a vicious curse?"

Hermione was hugging Lini and comforting her in a low voice. When she heard Tonks' question, Lini cried and replied, "I... I don't know, that box was like this when it was opened..."

"The box?" Tonks looked in the direction that Lini pointed, and saw a beautiful small box on the snow not far away. The lid was open, and there seemed to be a faint light shining inside.

Ron made a gesture to bend down to pick it up, but Harry gave him a hand.

"Don't touch it!" He bent down and looked very seriously at the shining thing in the box: it was a gorgeous opal necklace.

"I've seen this thing before," said Harry. "It was in Borgin's Bock's a few years ago, and the label said it was enchanted. Katie must have come across it."

Tonks nodded when he heard that, then turned to Lini and asked, "How did the girl get this thing?"

"When she came out of the toilet of the Three Broomsticks, she was holding this box in her hand, saying that she was going to give it to someone... At that time, she had a very strange expression when she spoke..." Lini's expression suddenly changed as she spoke. Changed, "I know! She must have been hit by the Imperius Curse! I didn't even realize at the time..." Before he could finish speaking, he cried heartbreakingly again, and buried his head directly in Hermione's arms .

"Did she say who gave it to her?" Tonks asked again.

"No, she won't say..." Lini showed a weeping face from Hermione's arms, "I had a big argument with her, saying that she was in a daze and she must not take this thing with her." Back to school, but she didn't listen... Later, I thought about snatching this thing from her, who would have thought..."

Before finishing speaking, she buried her back in Hermione's arms.

Tonks nodded when he heard this, and said: "The matter is very clear, someone wants to use Katie's hand to bring this dangerous black magic item into the castle... It's not safe here anymore, you all go back immediately Go to the castle!" After finishing speaking, he said to the two Aoruo next to him: "We have to tell the captain to dismiss all the students, and then quickly go to the three broomsticks to search..."

"I hope I can gain something..."

As soon as the words fell, Tonks nodded slightly towards Harry and the others, and left in a hurry with the two Aoruo.

"Let's go." Harry sighed, took off the scarf, and carefully wrapped the box inside, "Hagrid should have taken Katie to Madam Pomfrey, we have to take this thing there for her to see Look."

Hermione helped Lini to her feet and followed Harry and Ron to the castle.Along the way, Harry looked preoccupied, and when they walked into the campus and stepped onto the open space in front of the castle, they finally couldn't help it.

"Trust me, Ron, Malfoy must have made this," he said to Ron. "Four years ago, when I was hiding in Borginburg's, Malfoy looked at it carefully! We followed it during the summer vacation." His time, he must have gone to get this thing!"

"This...Harry, I'm not sure, you know, there are a lot of people going to the Borginburg shop... Besides, didn't Lini say that Katie got it from the toilet?" Ron hesitated, whispered back.

"Not the women's room, she just said Katie had it in her hand when she came out of the toilet..." Ron cut Harry off before he could finish.He pouted in one direction and warned, "Professor McGonagall!"

"What?" Harry looked back, and saw Professor McGonagall, wrapped in a dark green robe, coming towards them against the wind and snow.

"Hagrid said that the four of you witnessed the whole process of Katie's accident, and come to my office immediately!" Professor McGonagall said, seeing the scarf in Harry's hand, which contained something, " What's that, Potter?"

"It's the thing that killed Katie." Harry said, handing it forward.

"Oh my God!" Professor McGonagall quickly snatched the scarf from Harry, with a nervous expression, "Quick, go to my office now..." As soon as he turned around, he saw Filch holding a black magic item The probe walked towards them with excitement, and Professor McGonagall said quickly: "No, Filch! They're with me... Also, send this to Professor Snape immediately, now! Don't Touch it and keep it wrapped in a scarf!"

Professor McGonagall carried her robe and led Harry and others to her office quickly.She quickly walked around the table and sat on a chair, looked at Harry and they asked seriously, "Tell me, what's going on?"

Lini began to cry, but she cried so much that she spoke in fits and starts, until she broke down completely when it came to her going to take the box from Katie's hand.He fell headfirst into Hermione's arms, unable to utter a word.

"Okay, okay." Professor McGonagall rubbed his forehead and said, "Lini, go to the school hospital and ask Madam Pomfrey to give you some medicine to calm your shock."

Lini sobbed for a while, and finally stabilized a little under Hermione's soft comfort.After giving a slight nod to Professor McGonagall, Harry and others, he turned and opened the door and left.

After she left, Professor McGonagall looked at Harry and asked, "What happened after Katie touched that necklace?"

"She rose into the air, screaming piercingly," said Harry. "Professor McGonagall, can I see Professor Dumbledore?"

"He won't be back until next Monday, Potter." Professor McGonagall said, with a serious expression on his face. "You can tell me anything you want to say about this matter."

Harry hesitated for a while, his face looking puzzled, he didn't know whether he should tell Professor McGonagall everything.Although she is the head of Gryffindor, to be honest, Harry and her relationship are not as close as the always invisible Dumbledore.

After a long time, he said slowly, "Professor, I think Draco Malfoy gave Katie this necklace!"
