"Do you remember what happened?"

Dumbledore's sudden sound made Collins sob violently. She squinted her eyes for a long time before she saw the person standing in the shadow: "Deng, Principal Dumbledore?"

Collins, who graduated from Hogwarts, naturally recognized the famous white wizard. Not only that, she also noticed that there were two other people in the shadow, but they were a little far away and couldn't see clearly.

The presence of Dumbledore seemed to reassure her a lot, and she asked a little puzzled: "Principal Dumbledore, is there some misunderstanding? How could I be tied up? Where is this?"

Dumbledore didn't answer her question, but repeated his own question again: "Do you remember what happened before?"

Seemingly understanding that Dumbledore would not answer her question, Collins, who slowly stopped crying, recalled following Dumbledore's guidance with doubts: "It happened, what happened?"

"Ah!" Frowning and thinking hard for a long time, Collins cried out in a low voice as if he suddenly realized, "I remembered, I was obviously helping to take care of Ms. Porter at the medical point! Later... Later, I seemed to hear something, it seemed to be When calling me, and then helping Ms. Potter to heal her wounds, my eyes were always unconsciously attracted by Ms. Potter's bracelet..." Lily, who was hiding in a dark corner, subconsciously pulled the bracelet in and hid it in her sleeve.

"That's a beautiful bracelet!" Collins exclaimed without knowing it, and then she reacted anxiously and argued, "I didn't intend to steal her bracelet! I just, I just think that bracelet has always attracted me, and I am very happy." I want to take it off...but I know it's not right, I tried my best to divert my gaze and suppress this thought, but in the end I couldn't help reaching out and touching it, I really just wanted to touch it... When I touched the bracelet, I felt like my fingertips were sucked by something, and suddenly there was a sharp pain, and I didn’t remember anything after that.”

Dumbledore looked at Collins seriously, analyzing whether the other party's explanation was reasonable.If what Collins said was true, then Lily's bracelet was a big suspect, not to mention he had never seen Lily wearing this bracelet before.Also, why does the bracelet that Lily wears confuse others, and why does her bracelet set black magic traps?Lily seems to be hiding a lot from him...

Suppressing his doubts about Lily, Dumbledore confirmed to Collins: "Do you remember what kind of voice you heard?"

"It seems to be a man's voice..." Collins struggled to recall, "The voice was a little hoarse, and I don't remember what it said, but I couldn't help but want to look for that voice, but I couldn't find anything, but Noticed Ms Potter's bracelet."

Combined with the fact that Collins was under the Imperius Curse, her statement clearly showed that she was bewitched by Lily's bracelet before approaching Lily, and even wanted to get her bracelet.

Dumbledore tilted his head and nodded at Snape. Snape clearly took out a bottle of clear liquid and stepped forward to open Collins' mouth.

"Principal Dumbledore, don't you believe what I said?" Collins, who was a medical staff, obviously recognized the potion in Snape's hand, she struggled to avoid Snape's hand, and said loudly, "Privately use the spit Real potions are illegal!"

"No, in fact, there is no law that prohibits the use of Veritaserum." Dumbledore said bluntly, "We just need to confirm whether what you said is correct."

"Are you sure you won't ask other private questions?" Collins asked in horror.

"Absolutely not," Dumbledore reassured.

After struggling for a long time, Collins finally nodded, and obediently let Snape drop three drops of the potion into her mouth.However, even with the use of Veritaserum, Collins’ confession was no different from before. She also looked at a daze about the mastermind behind the scenes asked by Dumbledore, and insisted that the reason for Harry’s victimization was told to her by others According to the explanation that angered the dragon, Collins did not show any abnormal behavior from the beginning to the end, which basically confirmed the fact that she was bewitched by Lily's bracelet.

When Dumbledore came to Lily, he didn't mention the bracelet, and asked softly, "Lily, do you have anything else to confirm?"

After a moment of silence, Lily nodded, got up and came to Collins.

"Ms. Potter?!" Collins obviously didn't expect Lily to be there, and she apologized with some embarrassment, "I'm sorry, Ms. Potter, I just wanted to touch your bracelet for some reason, but I really didn't want to. Steal it!"

Lily interrupted Collins' apology, and said in a protracted tone: "After you disappeared, someone has been trying to save you..." She stared at Collins' expression, trying to find any clues that could convict her, but The other party just looked puzzled and surprised, as if even she herself was curious about who would save her.

Lily increased the weight unwillingly: "They have already confessed that they were ordered by the Dark Lord to save you... Do you still have to argue?!"

"How could it be? This must be a false accusation!" Collins said in panic, "I am not a Death Eater, I did not seek refuge with the Dark Lord! There is no way a Death Eater will rescue me!"

The interrogation was fruitless, and Lily ignored Dumbledore's obstruction and gave Collins a forgetful, and then arranged for someone to bring Collins back to the medical team.

Snape kept thinking about Collins' confession just now. Although Evan only ordered him to make the potion and didn't explain the details, Collins' confession now is obviously used to provoke the cooperation between Lily and the Crown Prince. Lily's private behavior was exposed to Dumbledore, making him suspicious of Lily.It was a good plan to put Lily in isolation so easily.

Neither Dumbledore nor Lily had any intention of involving Snape in the subsequent incidents. Snape stood there, watching the back of the two heading to the principal's office, speculating that the two had suppressed the possibility of this conflict in order to jointly deal with the Dark Lord. No matter how big it is, though, sooner or later the seeds of doubt are planted.

Without thinking about it, Snape turned away from staring at the blue potion, got up and went to the dinner party.

After the first event of the Triwizard Tournament, everyone seemed to be bored. After the exciting and exciting competition, the little wizards didn't seem to be paying much attention to their studies, and most of them were looking forward to the next competition.This kind of absent-minded learning attitude made the teachers very dissatisfied. One by one, they began to assign high-intensity homework and learning tasks, which made the students miserable and had no mind to think about other things.

In this unbearable atmosphere, Christmas finally arrived in everyone's anticipation.This relieved the students, they can relax from the heavy academic work.

In the last week of the semester, the school is getting busier and noisier day by day.Rumors were circulating about the Yule Ball, and the students, constantly expressing their desire to impress Beauxbatons and Durmstrang's guests, began discussing how to dress themselves, seemingly determined to celebrate this Christmas. Show your best self and, of course, start a relationship along the way.

Hogwarts is also decorated with lights, the marble staircase is covered with icicles that never melt, and the twelve Christmas trees that are usually placed in the auditorium are decorated with various baubles. From glistening holly berries to live golden owls hooting incessantly.The armor was enchanted so that it would sing Christmas carols whenever anyone passed by.This not only brought novelty to the students from other schools, but also allowed Hogwarts students to see for the first time that the original school could also be so beautifully decorated.

Harry didn't pay attention to these things recently. He thought that the warriors of the Triwizard Tournament had enough courage to fight against the dragon. He never expected to face the challenge of inviting a partner to dance the opening dance of the Yule Ball!

As soon as the lead dancer was mentioned, Harry immediately dreamed of appearing with Ian. The two faced each other and drew circles with the music under the lights. That scene must be very beautiful.But the trick is that the lead dancer even restricts the male warriors from dancing with girls!

The hard-pressed Harry could only give up the idea of ​​being with Ian with tears in his eyes, and ran to invite his friend Hermione. Unexpectedly, Krum took the lead!Seeing that the two seem to be in agreement, Harry can only silently wish the two of them a smooth development, and then figure out a way for them.

Ian didn't seem to intend to invite others to the dinner, and Evan, who was a little annoyed by the girls' inquiries recently, simply smiled and extended his hand to invite: "I don't know if I have the honor to invite Mr. Ian Demps to the Christmas ball together ?”

"Of course!" Ian readily agreed, and put his hand on Evan's. They don't need to lead the dance, so they can be each other's dance partners.

Harry, who sat next to the two of them and watched the whole process, felt like crying. He missed the chance to dance with Ian just like that!He doesn't want to be a warrior anymore...

Before 8 o'clock, the hall was full of students, and everyone was circling back and forth, waiting for the arrival of eight o'clock, when the door of the auditorium would open.

And the appearance of the Warriors obviously brought a small climax or two to some tedious waiting.Fleur Delacour walked in a silver-gray satin gown, she was amazingly glamorous. Accompanying her was Roger Davis, the captain of the Ravenclaw College Quidditch team. Davis couldn't believe it He was so lucky to get a dance partner like Furong, he couldn't take his eyes off her.

However, her appearance was far less stunning than Hermione's. Hermione, who usually wore a disheveled hair, was dressed up elegantly and generously, unlike her usual self.Her hair, smooth and lustrous, was pulled back in an elegant chignon, and she wore a gown of flowing lavender-blue fabric that accentuated her intellectual air.Compared with Furong's pure beauty, Hermione's transformation is obviously more amazing, and her temperament makes people feel comfortable.

Seeing Evan and the others, Hermione waved to them excitedly, and then followed Krum to Professor McGonagall—Professor McGonagall had just summoned all the warriors.

"Marvolo, you are really discerning!" Seeing Hermione after Evan's transformation, Draco sincerely praised, at least making Hermione willing to dress up is very powerful.

"Hey, Hermione has grown up too!" Evan sighed out of place.The vicissitudes in the words surprised Harry so much that he was almost stunned by his robes. This kind of elder-like tone really made people feel complicated.

"Are you alright?" Qiu Zhang asked with concern after supporting Harry in time.Cho Chang is Hermione's good friend. At the last moment, Hermione couldn't bear to see Harry's self-indulgent attitude of not wanting to invite anyone, so she introduced Cho Chang to Harry as a dance partner. Obviously, the thoughtfulness and kindness of this Ravenclaw girl Harry was very satisfied with his gentleness, and when he heard the other party's concern, he responded with a big smile, straightened his chest and led Qiu Zhang into the hall politely.

"Jealous?" Evan asked with a low smile as he asked Ian, who was watching Harry and Qiu Zhang go away with some regret.

"It's not jealous, it's just that I suddenly feel a little lost..." Ian honestly expressed his thoughts.After all, the person who has always been around him on weekdays suddenly has other people who can be cherished, so he naturally feels a little disappointed.

In his heart, he wrote down a lot of crimes for Harry, and Evan kept his face hidden, smiling and pulling Ian into the auditorium with the warrior.

The author has something to say: Is it true that Evan provoked the relationship between Lily, the Crown Prince and Dumbledore as soon as he made a move~~
