Spotted By Grindelwald And Went To Hogwarts Chapter 279: “Acting”
Under everyone's gaze, Xiao En humiliated and stubbornly drank the "Veritaserum".
He shook his head, his breathing became heavy, his eyes were slightly absent-minded, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead—this perfectly matched his state after taking Veritaserum.
Ponter almost couldn't wait to take a step forward to ask questions, but Professor McGonagall stood in front of him with raised eyebrows.
"Mr. Ponte, let me ask." There was a hint of warning in her words.
Ponte glanced at her and forced a smile.
Professor McGonagall turned his head and looked at Sean gently and asked, "Son, who are you?"
"Sean Wallep." Sean replied quickly without any hesitation.
Professor McGonagall stood up straight: "Okay, this lady has said just now that if the pollution of the soul is not removed, then Tom Riddle's memory will also answer together. Can you prove Sean's innocence now?"
Everyone: "..."
Even Xiao En, who was pretending to be confused, couldn't help wiping his sweat.
It's over after just asking for a name, Professor McGonagall, you are too straightforward...
The therapist of the **** took a step forward, she nodded: "Actually, it's almost the same, just ask two more questions."
She turned to look at Sean: "Are you Tom Riddle?"
"No."
"Do you know how you were parasitized by Tom Riddle's soul?"
"I don't know," Sean replied in a deadpan tone, "I don't know what happened."
Professor McGonagall stopped between the two, and she looked at the witch seriously: "Can you prove my student's innocence now?"
Ponte nodded to several people, but secretly gestured with his hands behind his back.
Snape looked up at Sean with his head raised, and then quickly said: "You are lucky, not only has the parasite been completely eliminated, but also your soul has not been traumatized."
Ponte frowned and asked: "Professor Snape, how do you judge this? I heard that some dark wizards can find a way to escape the influence of Veritaserum—"
His next words were caught in his throat as Snape was staring at him darkly and grimly.
"Are you doubting my potion level?" Snape looked at him with his nose.
"I didn't mean that..."
Snape flicked the sleeve of his robe in dissatisfaction: "Wallop is a student of Hogwarts. In England, it is illegal to use Veritaserum on underage wizards—your people told me that you have special permission from the International Federation of Wizards, but I still have to remind you, remember to ask Dumbledore to explain."
After saying this, he walked out of the room angrily.
And Dumbledore... Ponte forced a smile at Professor McGonagall, and finally nodded helplessly.
Just as Professor McGonagall was helping Sean out of the office, the guard who had been guarding the door and hadn't spoken suddenly asked, "Do you have a way to contact Grindelwald in private?"
"No." Sean answered without a trace of hesitation. He only showed an angry expression before he said it, and then stared at the other party coldly.
"Mr. Ponter!" Professor McGonagall's voice was filled with anger.
Disappointment flashed across Ponte's eyes. He walked over quickly and yelled at the team member, and finally sent off the angry Professor McGonagall and the gloomy Sean with a smile.
He greeted Professor Rozier with a slight sneer, and he led most of the team members towards the outside of the castle.
On the way, the team member who was scolded by him reported to him in a low voice: "Wallop has no hesitation, and his voice has no emotion. He is indeed still under the influence of Veritaserum. Boss, it seems that he is really just an innocent victim."
Ponte sighed: "That kid must have a relationship with Grindelwald, but it may not be the kind of relationship we imagined. Maybe, as he told me before, Grindelwald loved Cai so much that he taught him in private. After that night, he probably couldn't get in touch with Grindelwald."
Walking outside the castle, he ordered: "Bring some potions and Gallon to that kid. We can't let the relationship between Dumbledore and us worsen. Also, send the raw materials of Veritaserum to that Mr. Snape in the amount of a crucible. Professor McGonagall and Professor Rozier will also send gifts. They saved many of our people tonight."
"Yes, boss." The subordinate agreed, and then asked again, "Will you go to the hospital with us later?"
Ponte sighed: "I have to go back and report the situation, I hope the higher ups will let go of their suspicions about that kid, Merlin's beard, I don't want to be involved in this mess again!"
After speaking, he disappeared in place after a loud bang.
In the castle, Professor McGonagall helped Sean to her lounge, and she softly instructed: "The effect of Veritaserum is usually ten minutes. To be on the safe side, you should stay here for a while. After all, no one wants their secrets to be made public, right?"
Shawn almost blurted out his thanks, but he quickly changed his words: "Yes."
Professor McGonagall patted him on the shoulder and went to guard the door for him. Sean was the only one left in the room.
He sighed, his thoughts turned, but his face still had that expressionless expression. There were still a few minutes before the effect of the medicine ended, and he had to pretend for a while.
However, after tonight's incident is over, at least he has been selected to clean up, and he doesn't have to be as desperate as Grindelwald.
At present, the wizarding world is still headed by the Ministry of Magic and the International Federation of Wizards. Unless you can really overthrow the world by yourself, you still need the approval of official organizations to live normally in the wizarding world.
Shawn wants to develop his power more, increase his strength more, and also to cope with the outbreak of the prophecy in the future. It is indeed not a good choice to sneak underground now.
Fortunately, there was no danger tonight, and I let myself out, and cleared the suspicion, which is not a loss.
Thinking about it, he felt that his eyelids suddenly became heavy, and an irresistible drowsiness gradually hit him.
In a daze, Professor McGonagall walked in again, and Sean heard the sometimes light and sometimes heavy words.
"The effect of the medicine is over, Mr. Wallop, you can rest with me tonight."
"Okay...thank you professor..."
Hearing this, Xiao En, who could no longer resist the drowsiness, fell into a deep sleep.
…
Germany, Berlin, headquarters of the International Confederation of Wizards.
In the conference room with dark black walls, there are no empty seats in the surrounding gradually rising positions, and a fierce meeting is going on at the federation headquarters.
"... Grindelwald has kept his own law and order for decades! The Federation and Dumbledore worked together to persuade this lawless man. Hasn't he done well enough over the years?!" A white wizard in his fifties spit at the mouth.
On the opposite side of him, someone raised his glasses and said in a strange tone: "But the crimes committed by Grindelwald are unforgivable."
"Figure leaf! Do you really think that you are upholding justice? Looking back, the Ministry of Magic in your respective countries, who has not received the wealth of a pure-blood family and exonerated their family members?!" The wizard was violent, and his voice overwhelmed everyone.
Many people's expressions became ugly, and the chairman who sat at the top nodded seriously at the irascible wizard.
"Watch your words, Mr. Chapman."
Chapman snorted angrily, but he didn't continue to talk about this topic. Although he has a bad temper, he is not stupid. If he offended a group of people just now, he can be regarded as outspoken, and if he continues, he will really offend everyone.
After a brief awkward atmosphere, everyone started arguing about how Grindelwald should deal with it.
But no matter how much they argue, one group of people can't convince the other group, and the neutral wizards don't say much except to fight, until finally, the chairman who didn't talk much in the whole meeting came to a conclusion.
"The arrest warrant continues to be issued, but Grindelwald's former subordinates should not be embarrassed anymore. We need more discussions on the specific disposal plan. Then, the United Wizards Guard also needs a new leader."
"The meeting is over."
At the Floo powder window, someone caught up to the angry Chapman.
"Mr. Chapman, what are we going to do? The chairman doesn't make a statement."
Chapman's red nose twitched twice, and he said angrily: "What can we do? So what if the arrest warrant is issued? And discuss how to deal with Grindelwald?"
"Bah!" As he spoke, he spat fiercely on the ground, "No one was caught, what a waste of discussion! What kind of **** justice, I really don't know? There must be someone behind the guards, and they have destroyed the peace for decades now!"
The man also sighed: "I don't know what the Chairman thinks."
Chapman glanced around inadvertently, and when he found no one, he slightly lowered his voice but still said angrily: "What can you think? The chairman has been in this position for decades, and you don't know how he came to the position?"
The man smiled embarrassingly: "We know, but the public doesn't know."
Chapman snorted coldly: "The old employees who have worked in the headquarters for decades don't know that his grandfather is the former chairman!"
"Mr. Chapman, it's better not to say this..."
"So what's the matter?" Chapman's beard was shaking, "He was able to win the election with the help of the old chairman, but the other candidates were too bad."
"But the chairman has been in office for so many years, at least the wizarding world is peaceful..."
Chapman grabbed a handful of Floo powder, and said angrily: "Peace is brought by Grindelwald and Dumbledore! He is just like his grandfather, doing nothing!"
"Sir, sir, keep your voice down..."
"Whisper what?!" Chapman sprinkled the Floo powder into the fireplace, and the green light danced on his face. "It's not long since the chairman changed. Didn't he just want to leave a good name during his term of office? So do nothing and procrastinate. Anyway, as long as the term is over, the next chairman should worry about it!"
"Isn't there a new term..."
"Huh!"
…
"Uh——" Sean opened his eyes, sat up straight with his eyelids drooping, and then stretched a lot.
It was a comfortable sleep, but I was very hungry.
He looked at his watch and was surprised to find that he had slept for more than 20 hours, and today was the morning of the third day.
Just as he was about to get up, the wooden door was gently pushed open.
Daisy and Hermione came in with two trays.
"Sean, are you awake?" Daisy's eyes lit up, and she walked over bouncingly.
"Well, good morning." He greeted with a smile.
Hermione brought the plate over and said, "Professor Snape did something wrong, and you will fall into a coma for more than twenty-four hours. Daisy went to ask again later, and what she said is good for you."
Daisy sat on the side of the bed, her slender legs dangling: "The professor said that you are parasitized by the soul, a good sleep is good for your body, I calculated the time, and you should wake up now, so I went with Hermione to get you breakfast, are you hungry?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Sean's stomach made a rumbling sound.
He smiled, picked up the sandwich on the plate and ate it.
After swallowing a large piece, Sean looked at the two girls who were watching him eating, and said with a smile, "Did you two go to see Professor Snape?"
Daisy nodded quickly: "Hermione immediately thought of a way. She even attracted the attention of the guards in order to let me pass safely."
"Thank you, Hermione." Sean patted Hermione's hand.
The girl snorted proudly: "The guard wanted to use a flashback spell to investigate whether my wand was really malfunctioning. I had already cast a confusion spell on my wand, and he didn't even have an excuse to put me in confinement, so he finally let me go."
"Yes, yes, Hermione is smart." Daisy giggled.
Hermione wrinkled her nose at her: "You're not bad, you easily persuaded Professor Snape, and later sent you a lot of potions."
"Hey, I'll return the gift to the professor at Christmas."
The two girls looked at each other and smiled, then clapped their hands.
Shawn watched it as a joke, but a warm current rose in his heart. It feels good to have someone who really cares about him.
After breakfast, they told the two what happened that night, and they walked out after making sure Sean was okay.
He first went to Professor McGonagall to thank him earnestly, but the other party felt sorry for his suffering, which made Sean, who had been acting all the time, very embarrassed.
Walking out of Professor McGonagall's office, Sean also thought about what gift to buy for this respected professor ~IndoMTL.com~ While discussing with the two of them, he bumped into Professor Rozier at the corner.
Sean's eyes lit up and he stepped forward quickly: "Professor, I'm going to find you. Thank you very much for what happened last time."
Professor Rozier still had that glamorous look. She glanced at Sean, nodded casually and said, "You are fine."
"Well, thank you."
Rozier chuckled and leaned into his ear: "The acting skills are as good as Master Grindelwald's, but you are you and he is him. Do what you want, and he will contact you when he has ideas."
Sure enough, the two have been in touch. Sean nodded knowingly, and he stroked his chest in greeting: "Thank you for your reminder, professor, I understand."
"Very good." Rozier raised his brows, and then returned to his usual coolness.
