The man behind Hogwarts

"Now you know that I didn't lie to you." William said to the shadow corner.

"What kind of spell is this?"

The mysterious man finally recovered from his fear, and his first question was the name of the curse.

He is somewhat famous in the wizarding world, otherwise he would not have been invited to teach at Hogwarts. He is indeed a teacher, but he has never heard of this curse.

"It's called the Southern Star."

The pole, the south, the star!

The mysterious man kept chanting this name, recalling the splendid power of the white light in his mind, and it felt so fitting in his heart.

I'm looking for a star in the extreme south of the world.

In the corner, William said softly, "Come back."

Half a minute later, Vega emerged from the shadow of the mysterious man, shaking his head and wrapping his head around William.

There is more than one trump card.

If a life-and-death battle really broke out just now, Veigar would have given the mysterious man a fatal blow in the darkness.

"When I leave, I'll leave this place to you. You probably don't want others to find out what's going on here."

After taking back Vega, William planned to leave.

It's easier to go out than come in, just open a window and jump out.

"Wait a minute, who are you?" the mysterious man shouted anxiously, but unfortunately there was only silence outside the window.

He shook his head disappointed.

Just now I suspected that he was a third-year student. It seems that I am superficial.

How can this kind of magic be mastered by students? Even I have never heard of it.

Based on the power of the ‘Ultra South Star’, I’m afraid it’s not that difficult to learn it.

The mysterious man sighed.

"Forget it, although I didn't find what I wanted today, it was worth the trip after seeing such a magic spell."

......

Leaving the library, William trotted forward.

When he arrived at the auditorium, it was already full of people.

In the long auditorium, four long tables were placed side by side, and the young wizards from the four colleges were sitting noisily.

On the dome, countless candles and pumpkin lanterns turned the sky above the auditorium into a sea of ​​light, with ghosts floating around from time to time.

"William, here!"

In the Ravenclaw seat, Roommate A waved wildly to William. His movement immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding young wizards.

William ran quickly across the aisle and sat in the seat reserved for him by roommate A.

"Hasn't it started yet?"

"Not yet. You came just in time. If it were a little later, the principal would have started to speak."

As soon as he sat down, the classmates around him greeted him warmly; Evelin even glared at him for some reason.

Sure enough, within a few minutes, the banquet started.

"clang"

A crisp voice came from the stage,

Each of the little wizards heard the sound and immediately looked towards the high platform.

There was already a row of teachers and professors sitting there, and Dumbledore was sitting in the middle. He was wearing a purple robe and looked solemn.

He opened his hands and said with a smile: "The banquet begins!"

"yeah!!"

In an instant, the auditorium turned into a sea of ​​cheers, and the little wizards were as excited as if they had won the jackpot.

swipe, swipe,

The empty wooden table immediately changed its appearance. Plate after plate and dish after dish of delicacies appeared out of thin air, and the fragrance immediately hit the nostrils, almost making people smell the sweetness.

In the middle of all the dishes are dishes made from various pumpkins.

"Eh?" A special thing suddenly appeared on William's right side, a large glass of orange drink with a hint of green in the middle, "Honey water?"

After looking around, I saw that there was no such thing on other people's seats.

William understood immediately. He knocked on the table three times and said, "Thank you Dasu."

In the kitchen on the ground floor of the auditorium, Dasu was indeed standing next to the table. He leaned on the table, and a warm voice sounded in his ears, "Thank you, Dasu."

"Ahaha, William received it, received it! You're welcome, you're welcome!"

The elf Dasu was so excited that he jumped up and down on the ground.

"Stop shouting, you can't be heard from above." Another elf crossed his hands with disgust on his face, "Why don't you hurry up and get ready? You have to go to the dungeon tonight."

"What tone are you talking about? Do you believe I will beat you up?" Dasu stared at it with a pair of bulging eyes.

The expression of the elf with a disgusted face stagnated, "I'm too lazy to tell you." He left with his hands folded, then suddenly turned back and said: "You must not lose when you go to the dungeon today, come on!"

"Hmph, Dasu won't lose."

......

"William, do you see that pumpkin above your head?"

While eating pumpkin pie, Evelin sat on his right side, lowering her head and speaking softly.

"Ok?"

He looked up and saw a huge jack-o-lantern. The jack-o'-lantern had an unusually large mouth, with several large fangs on its upper and lower lips. An arm could be stuffed into the gap in the mouth.

"Isn't this the jack-o-lantern you carved? It happens to be above our heads. What a coincidence."

"Yeah, what a coincidence." There are two of our names on it~

Evelin laughed, then played carelessly with her friends around her.

Her feet under the table swayed like two lively little fishes.

William stuffed two meat patties casually.

Absently observing the teachers on the high platform.

"Is Professor Crohn here today?"

"No, I've never seen him." Roommate A said, "Not only Professor Crohn, but also Professor Sinistra and Madam Pomfrey are not here either."

Professor Crohn...

A gleam flashed in his eyes.

Could it be that the mysterious man in the library is Professor Crohn?

In fact, when he was still in the library, he had doubts about this professor because there were too many doubts about him.

If the original history is followed, Quirrell, who currently teaches Muggle Studies, will be possessed by Voldemort and then return to Hogwarts to serve as the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.

What about the original Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher?

He must have resigned for unknown reasons. Either he died or he ran away. Anyway, he will not be in school next year.

Therefore, something strange will definitely happen to Professor Crohn this year.

Secondly, the mysterious man used the silent spell technique to cast the 'Iron Armor Curse'. A wizard with this ability must not be an ordinary wizard, which basically eliminates the suspicion that he is a student.

After a simple screening of the teacher system, there are only a few suspects left.

Dumbledore, Snape, McGonagall, Flitwick, etc. would definitely not do such a thing.

Plus Professor Crohn did not attend the banquet...

The degree of match between his suspects has reached eighty-five points.

"But I can't make a decision now. It might be Professor Sinistra."

With the help of magic, it is not difficult for a woman to transform into a man, and she did not attend the party.

"I just noted down the appearance of the mysterious man's wand. I can verify it sometime..."
