Just like the attack on the Weasley family, everyone seemed to want to make a big deal.
Suppose the other party succeeds and Slughorn dies.
Then the entire magical society will be in an uproar.
At the same time, as the wine delivery person, John will also become the primary suspect.
"one stone two bird."
As for who is behind the scenes, it is not difficult to guess.
The hard part is sorting out the poisoners in the post-Christmas slug club.
"Are you the mole again? Tom, can't you do something new?"
John felt he needed to talk to Slughorn about who he had recently invited to his after-dinner class.
"First of all, I can rule out four people as suspects, Draco, Daphne, Astoria, and Neville."
The people he mentioned were all from the Star Club, which made Harry dissatisfied and said, "Then I can rule out Ginny and Hermione as suspects."
"No, you can't." John said lightly, "Because they are not immune to the Imperius Curse."
Harry was speechless.
…
Chapter 471 A long life
Sometimes, the truth is so cruel.
People in the Star Club always carry amulets with them when they go out, so that they can respond quickly even if they encounter the soul-stealing curse.
And unfortunately, no one else did.
Even if Harry wanted to be tough, there was nothing he could do.
John left the school hospital.
The other party came towards Slughorn, was it intentional or accidental?
Choose the wine you send out?
If it was intentional, then the intention of poisoning could be carefully calculated.
If you are not careful, John will be unlucky.
The news that Ron was poisoned and hospitalized reached the castle, and the students all sent their sympathy to Ron.
"The Weasley family was attacked on Christmas, and they were not spared even when they came to school."
Ernie Macmillan, the famous Hufflepuff gossip, is spreading the word about the Weasley curse.
Ron Weasley soon became the last member of a family cursed by an ancient curse.
After Ginny heard it, she scolded the person who spread the rumor.
Weasley and his whole family are obviously fine.
But when Brace saw this image, he couldn't help but make a love speech again.
"I really love this girl to death."
John glanced at him, and now he could basically confirm that this kid was not the murderer.
Find someone with an advanced love brain, even Voldemort would not do this when his IQ was not complete.
He held a list in his hand and looked at it. It was the people who participated in the Slug Club.
"Theodore?"
He saw a person on the list, frowned and said, "He was also invited?"
Only then did Malfoy find out that Ron was lying in the school hospital and was considering whether to go over and laugh at Harry.
Hearing the question, he said: "Yes, he was also invited."
John raised his eyebrows, it was a bit surprising that Theodore Nott was invited.
Because Theodore's father Nott Sr. is currently staying in Azkaban.
A child of a Death Eater, this was not within the scope of what Slughorn thought worthy of an invitation.
More importantly, he is Pansy's boyfriend.
Although he didn't want to admit it, John still had to say that Pansy Parkinson's ability to recognize unknown people was like a beacon that could always identify the bad guy in the crowd.
"Investigate whether Theodore has been in contact with anyone." John handed the task to Malfoy.
Matters between pure-blood families are left to fellow pure-bloods to resolve.
Malfoy complained: "I'm still planning to go on a date with Atto."
"No, you don't want to." John saw that Daphne had pricked up her ears to eavesdrop, and winked at Malfoy.
Unfortunately, Malfoy seemed to be too focused on Potter over there and didn't notice the wink. He retorted dissatisfiedly: "I very much think that Ato must be like this too."
Alas, it’s hard to persuade a **** ghost with good words.
Under John's pitying gaze, Malfoy developed a large, unsightly sore.
This made him too embarrassed to go on a date.
"I think you can relax your restraint on Draco." John advised tactfully. "Although he is Draco, he can't bear too many curses."
Daphne snorted coldly: "I don't want my sister to be deceived by an unreliable man."
I have to say that this sentence is very convincing.
Especially when that person is ranked in the top three on the list of most hated people in Hogwarts.
Even Filch's mysterious arrests didn't shake Malfoy.
After all, Malfoy has an extra mouth.
What a good person. It’s a pity that he has so many mouths.
…
corridor.
"Can you show me your necklace?"
The Ravenclaw girl who was chatting and laughing was so frightened that she screamed.
Myrtle emerged from behind and tried to open her eyes wide, trying to see the girl's necklace clearly.
The girl was so frightened that she covered her chest and ran away quickly.
Myrtle shook her head and said, "I don't like that style anyway."
She drifted to another place again.
The senior girls began to dress themselves up in various ways, and they became the main targets of Myrtle's investigation.
There was one time when three girls were so frightened that they went to the school hospital to use tranquilizers.
In the corridor on the second floor, John found Myrtle who was looking around at necklace styles.
He took out a magazine from his small bag, which contained various models of necklaces.
"Oh, this is exactly what I need, but I can't reach it." Myrtle watched in dismay as she ran her fingers through the magazine.
John put it down and said, "This page turns automatically."
The magazine turned automatically, and Myrtle floated there, staring with interest.
"Can you do me a little favor?" John said, "I will pay you."
"Of course." Myrtle floated in front of John.
"Ask the ghosts for me who has stopped in the principal's office, and if it's convenient for you, tell me what these people usually do in the castle."
John pulled out some photos, thanks to a certain Gryffindor photographer.
Myrtle looked at the photo and said she would help.
But John wanted to make her a pair of earrings, and she saw a girl wearing them that looked very good.
John agreed.
When he was about to leave, he suddenly thought of a question.
"Myrtle, do you think living like this will be boring?"
"Bored? Sometimes, but I like to run to the bathroom and peek at the boys taking a shower. It's fun that way." Myrtle accidentally revealed the secret, screamed and got into the broken toilet, probably because she was shy.
John spread his hands helplessly, it seemed that he could not get the answer.
As a ghost who has been dead for more than fifty years, Myrtle's answer is not very accurate.
After all, among the many ghosts in the school, Myrtle is the youngest one.
Others can last hundreds to thousands of years.
Ghosts have an almost infinite lifespan because they have long since died.
After getting the blood of the big octopus, John also began to think about immortality.
The one that Voldemort longed for but was easily obtained by John.
His current lifespan is not a big problem if he lives for more than 200 or 300 years. With the addition of the blood of the giant octopus, it will be improved. He can live to the age of his teacher without using the magic stone.
In addition, he has the magic stone. If he wants to live forever, he can survive until the death of this country.
But the meaning of living like that makes people feel confused.
"It would be terrible if it was like Professor Binns."
Thinking of his history of magic professor, John felt a chill.
Professor Binns has been teaching this repeatedly for thousands of years. Maybe he was a passionate person when he was young, but now he is not much different from the walking dead.
"Vitality is the key."
John took out the blue blood and shook it.
If your guess is correct, you can have a life as long as a big octopus this time
Thinking of the system's seven-level limit, John's heart sank.
"Can the system only stop here?"
He rubbed his silver ring and began to feel anxious about the future without realizing it.
He thought of other ways, such as seizing the Elder Wand, to further improve his strength.
But with the help of external forces, should we wait for others to defeat us like Grindelwald and Dumbledore?
"Since there is a god, level seven will not be the limit, whether it is the existence of the God of Death or the 'god' of another world."
John took a deep breath and rubbed his brow.
It is better to consider these things after reaching the seventh level of magic. The first task now is to find the poisoned traitor and kill Voldemort.
There is also a crystal ball in the small bag.
John had not yet read the prophecies inside.
Yesterday, I spent a whole day listening to the sufferings of Hibiscus's love. When I came back, I was with the big octopus underwater.
When he arrived at the castle, he was asked to go to the school hospital because of the poisoning incident.
Now that he has time, John heads to the Star Club.
Sitting on the chair of the Star Club, he took out the prophecy ball.
"Sybill Trelawney, don't let me down."
As the culprit who created the fate of the savior, Trelawney's prophetic ability almost never failed.
John held the crystal ball in his hand, and dim light emitted from the crystal ball.
The fog inside dispersed, and a familiar voice sounded in John's ears.
