Hogwarts from another world

The expression on Justin Finch-Fletchley's face was very, very painful.

He covered his head desperately, as if his head was going to explode.

"If you can't remember it, stop thinking about it." Matthew comforted calmly.

At the same time, he bent down, picked up all the gadgets that Justin had dropped on the ground, and then returned them to him.

"Thank you" Justin's expression softened slightly and he held them in his arms again.

Then, he said somewhat dejectedly: "I'm going back to the Hufflepuff common room first. I'm very sleepy now."

"Okay, bye" Matthew waved to him.

Looking at Justin Finch-Fletchley's retreating back, Matthew fell into deep thought.

The Hufflepuff boy's reaction was undoubtedly a sign of being hit by the "Forgetting Curse".

The effect of the forgetting spell can make people lose certain specific memories.

Moreover, what he had in mind should be the kind of forgetting spell that was not very good or the level of wizards who used this spell was average. Most of the impressions he had in his mind about the witch wearing a thick black gauze scarf. All have been deleted; but some residual images remain.

So when others mention that image in front of him, he will have a strange reaction.

Then now the question is coming

Why did the witch wearing a thick black gauze go to find Justin Finch-Leary?

And the time she found Justin Finch-Fletchley was probably after she passed through Honeydukes' tunnel and got rid of her.

Do you want to get some information about yourself through him?

If this is the case, then there is no doubt that she made a miscalculation. Matthew and Justin Finch-Fletchley did not officially know each other until today. Before that, he knew very little about her.

Or maybe my previous inference was completely wrong. The original purpose of the witch wearing a thick black veil was not to find me at all.

She just wanted to catch a random little wizard from Hogwarts and get some information from her mouth.

The first target she found was herself, but she got rid of her through Honeydukes' tunnel. So, she turned her target to Justin Finch-Fletchley, who was also in Hogsmeade.

Matthew's expression became a little solemn.

If this is the case, then the real purpose of the witch wearing a thick black gauze scarf is worthy of discussion.

Moreover, it is very likely that it is related to the previous series of attacks on Hogwarts.

"What are you doing here?" A cold voice sounded from behind.

It was Agnes Lestrange, holding a rear admiral's hat in one hand and a cluster of glittery balloons that looked like they had been popped out of a colorful firecracker.

"Sorry, I was thinking about something." Matthew calmed down and said softly.

"Let's go back to the common room together," Lestrange suggested proactively: "Or do you have other plans now?"

"No." Matthew nodded: "Let's go back to the common room together."

The two of them walked side by side, holding strange Christmas gifts in their hands, towards the depths of the basement.

Except for the footsteps of the two men, this cold, damp and even somewhat eerie corridor fell into an awkward silence.

Matthew suddenly realized that he and Agnes Lestrange had known each other for almost four months and had had many contacts. Some time ago, they even played Gobstone and Wizard Chess together every day, but they had no verbal communication with each other. , but very few.

In other words, they rarely speak.

"Previous attack incident" Miss Lestrange also realized that this atmosphere was a bit strange. As she approached the Potions classroom, she took the initiative and said, "Do you think it's over?"

"Of course not." Matthew replied without thinking.

"So sure." Lestrange gave him a strange look.

"It's just a reasonable guess." Matthew also realized that he had made a mistake and quickly explained.

"Then you are so sure." Lestrange snorted coldly: "You are talking as if you know something inside."

Matthew didn't answer, and there was an awkward silence between the two.

A few steps further into the Potions classroom, an abandoned washroom appeared.

Matthew turned his head and looked at it carefully. On the door sign in front of the bathroom door, there was a huge word "malfunction" written on it.

"This is the girls' bathroom," Lestrange reminded.

"Of course I know, I'm just taking a look." Matthew said calmly: "This shouldn't violate school rules."

"Someone died in this bathroom." Lestrange's voice suddenly became a little deeper:

"Almost fifty years ago, a Ravenclaw girl died mysteriously in it. At that time, Headmaster Armando Dippet closed this bathroom, and it became abandoned and became like this."

Of course Matthew knew this.

He also knew that the dead girl was called Myrtle; she turned into a ghost called "Moaning Myrtle" after her death; and that her murderer was the basilisk released by Tom Riddle from the secret room.

etc.

Matthew suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong with you?" Lestrange gave him a confused look.

"Nothing." Matthew spread his hands and continued walking towards the Slytherin common room.

A few minutes later, they stood in front of the giant snake statue at the stone gate.

"Victory comes first"

Matthew said the password for these two weeks, and the stone door was opened.

Agnes Lestrange walked towards her dormitory without looking back.

But Matthew stopped because he saw a ghost around the corner of the common room.

Matthew hurriedly walked over and asked very respectfully: "Sir?"

Bloody Barrow raised his head and looked Matthew up and down: "What's the matter?"

"Is there a ghost named Moaning Myrtle in Hogwarts Castle?" Matthew asked quickly.

"That's right." Bloody Barrow agreed.

"So have you seen her during this time?" Matthew continued to ask.

"Myrtle rarely leaves her territory." Bloody Barrow replied coldly: "Of course, I haven't seen her once since the beginning of this semester."

"Okay, thank you" Matthew bowed politely.

Then, he also returned to his dormitory.
