Hogwarts, where the stars shine

Chapter 110: The truth behind the suspension of the game



The Quidditch match was stopped because a special symbol appeared in the school.

The news spread throughout the Slytherin dungeons before dinner that night.But what most students know is limited to this symbol. They don't even know the shape and style of the symbol, let alone that the symbol may refer to the Deathly Hallows.

There are very few people who know the true form of the symbol, and even fewer people know about the Deathly Hallows. Currently, only four people in the hospital know about it.If there are still people who understand the legend of the Deathly Hallows like Lilia, this number will increase accordingly.

It's interesting to say that the spread of the Deathly Hallows symbol in Slytherin completely corresponds to the old saying - the heart is separated from the belly.

Mesa told Gascoigne the Deathly Hallows and the symbols, but did not tell Grindelwald's name; Gascoigne told several others the symbols, but did not tell the Deathly Hallows; these people told More people talk about symbols, but do not tell the true form of the symbols.

After an afternoon of spreading the word and the efforts of many students, the reason why the Quidditch match was stopped was finally reduced to an unknown special symbol.

Most of the students who were in the dark thought that Dumbledore was making a bit of a fuss.

There is a saying in the Muggle world: Football has nothing to do with life and death, but football is higher than life and death.This sentence applies equally to the wizarding world and to people who love Quidditch.

In particular, the school has not lifted the state of martial law. All students can only stay in the common room, and even dinner is served during the break. This has also greatly increased the dissatisfaction of Quidditch enthusiasts.

The students, who were bored and had nothing to do, could only curse Dumbledore, then look at the black lake outside the window and imagine the vastness of the sky.

Fortunately, the state of martial law did not last long, and students were able to leave the common room the next morning.They can take a look at the Scottish winter sky as they head to the Great Hall to dine.

Regardless of which college students are from, the first thing they do when they step out of the common room is the exchange of information.By summarizing different pieces of information, I was able to figure out the real reason why the Quidditch game was suspended.

With the concerted efforts of students from four colleges, a relatively complete truth was finally pieced together before the end of breakfast:

A Ravenclaw student was attacked by unknown persons.The incident took place in a corridor near Gryffindor Tower, and a special symbol was found at the scene.

Ravenclaw, Gryffindor, and Slytherin, the three houses provided characters, places, and suspicious information respectively.As for Hufflepuff House, they are responsible for observing and giving opinions.

Since the Hufflepuff common room was underground, far away from the incident, and Professor Sprout didn't say anything, the little badgers were unable to provide any valid information.

After breakfast, the Slytherin students felt very happy.If Black hadn't learned about the "symbol" from the Head of House, they would be the same as Hufflepuff today.

Think about it, other houses are having heated discussions and exchanging information with each other, but Slytherin can only watch from the sidelines, especially when one of the parties involved in the discussion is Gryffindor House. What a terrible scene it is!

Second-year Mesa Black, for the first time, Slytherins were grateful that he was from their own house.

This is good news for Mesa's plan, but this good news is based on the misfortune of others.

With the victim's information and the location of the incident, a group of idle students divided into two groups.A group of people walked to the school hospital to see the Ravenclaw who was attacked; a group of people rushed to the scene of the incident, trying to find any remaining clues at the scene.

Mesa and Lilia were also very free, so they grabbed Sean Hart and went to the corridor where the students were attacked.

The reason why they did not go to the campus hospital was because the two of them agreed that even if they went to the campus hospital, they would not be able to see the Ravenclaw who was attacked.

When the Mesa trio arrived at the corridor, the place where the incident occurred was already crowded with curious students from all colleges.Idle people clogged the entire corridor.

Fortunately, Mesa's handsome face was highly recognizable and could be used as a pass, and more than one student present recognized him.Finally, with the help of Gascoigne, the three Mesa men were able to pass through the crowded crowd and reach the inner circle.

As Gryffindor returned to the common room from the pitch yesterday, they spotted Dumbledore in this corridor.Where Charlie Weasley was standing now was where Dumbledore was when he was seen yesterday.

The students surrounding the inner circle were almost all seniors from various colleges, as well as the presidents of the male and female student unions and prefects.Among them was an old acquaintance of Mesa, his eldest niece Nymphadora Tonks.

Although the students surrounded it three times inside and three times outside, this corridor completely failed to attract the attention it received. There was nothing here.

Everything in the corridor had been cleared, and it was impossible to tell where the symbol appeared, or whether Dumbledore had found the student lying down or against a wall.

A clean corridor is not attractive, so the students gathered here quickly dispersed, leaving faster than they came.

At the end, there were only a few prefects left in the corridor, and of course the Mesa trio and Tonks.

Robert Hilliard, Ravenclaw's prefect, looked a little impatient as he walked around.Hilliard was eager to find evidence immediately and bring the person who left the symbol to justice.

The person who was also anxious was Charlie Weasley. The incident occurred so close to Gryffindor Tower. It was Ravenclaw who was attacked yesterday, and it might be Gryffindor's turn tomorrow.

While several prefects were talking quietly, Tonks walked up to Mesa and asked, "Hey, did you find any problems? Last year, Steele Martin, wasn't it you who discovered it first?"

"No, obviously the professors have cleaned this place," Mesa said. "There's nothing left for us."

It can be seen that Mesa has never seen Thunderstorm with anyone else, otherwise his answer should be: My name is not Hello, my name is Mesa Black.

"Are you saying that our efforts are in vain?" Tonks said, "I still want to hone myself through this! I want to become an Auror after graduation."

"You will definitely become an Auror." Mesa said. He did not throw cold water on it. As a qualified elder, he should support the dreams of the younger generation.

Looking at Mesa taking the money in front of her, Tonks became furious.

Although the two were only distant relatives, the sudden seniority still made Tonks a little unhappy.

Tonks clenched her fists, and only by giving Mesa a loud shudder could she relieve the hatred in her heart.But as soon as Tonks raised her hand, Mesa, who had quick eyesight and quick hands, had already dodged it.

"If you want to fight, go away and make trouble!" Hilliard shouted, "Don't be an eyesore here!"

"Watch your tone, Hilliard!"

"Watch your attitude, Hilliard!"

Gascoigne and Truman spoke almost at the same time. One of the two prefects was protecting Mesa, and the other was protecting Tonks.

Neither of these two prefects is a good person.Gascoigne dared to form a small group within Slytherin, but it was mainly mixed-race students.Hufflepuff's Truman, when he was in the third year, he dared to challenge the Ravenclaw prefects. It can be said that he became famous in one battle.

Hilliard snorted and gave up.It seemed that the Ravenclaw who was attacked had an unusual relationship with him, otherwise he would not have behaved so manically and vented his anger on Mesa and Tonks.

"If you feel that our behavior just now offended the injured Ravenclaw, we apologize." Lilia suddenly stepped forward, "But this apology is for the Ravenclaw, it is not just to express anger. You, Robert Hilliard, are the incompetents of others!”

If you think Lilia Shafiq is a well-behaved baby, you will be deceived by her appearance and well-behaved performance.Lilia is a very proud person at heart, she just happened to meet Mesa.

"Apologise?" Mesa said, "I have no intention of apologizing, Lilia. I am not that kind yet, and I will not consider the feelings of insignificant people."

With that said, Mesa turned around and prepared to leave this corridor.If you can't find any clues if you continue to stay here, you might as well go about your own business.
