Hogwarts: more magic than magic

Chapter 37 Arranging Kuhn
In the evening, we had dinner.

Chiz, who made some preparations, walked leisurely in the dark corridor.

The sky is about to get dark, and the weather is not particularly good today, it is gloomy, and the sky seems to be about to collapse.

Now there is still a glimmer of light outside the window, shining in through the yellowed glass, printing a series of squares on the corridor where the candles have not yet been lit.

When he walked through a dark arcade, a tall figure jumped out from a nearby shadow, and with the soft sound of a spell, Keiz fainted to the ground.

The black shadow picked up Qiz who had fallen on the ground, and disappeared into the darkness without a sound.

I don't know how long has passed.

"Hello! Mr. Keez, we meet again!" A slightly deep male voice sounded in a dusty, empty and abandoned classroom.

"It really surprised me! Isn't it? Very few people can lie without changing their faces under the influence of Veritaserum Potion!" The voice gradually accelerated, mixed with a hint of irritation. "But fortunately! I also want to thank that silly Mr. Hagrid. If he hadn't gotten a little truth out of his mouth, I would have been deceived by you!"

Keiz slowly opened his eyes, twisted his body, and found himself tightly tied to a wooden stool.

He recognized Kuhn's voice, "Sir, what are you doing? This is not what a special investigator of the Ministry of Magic should do. Kidnapping a young wizard, even if you are a public official of the Ministry of Magic, is not a small crime!"

"Sorry kid, you have to know that I have no choice but to do this, as long as you tell everything you know, you won't get any harm!" The tall figure hidden in the shadows turned around and bent down to stare at Chiz's face.

Keiz squeezed his fist, but he didn't feel the feedback from the machinery on his arm.

"Are you looking for this thing?" Kuhn's mouth curled up slightly, and he shook the mechanism holding the wand in his hand, "It's a very interesting little thing, isn't it? It's hard to be found hidden there, and it's easy to use! If I didn't search carefully, it would be really hard to find!"

"After the things here are over, I want to get one myself!" He said and threw it on the dusty table beside him.

With the last gleam of light coming in from the window, Chiz glanced up and saw Mr. Kuhn, who was hunched over and staring at him, "I didn't expect that either! Mr. Kuhn, your investigative ability is so powerful, you found it in a few days!"

"Congratulations, you are not far from the real truth!" Qiz smiled, "But what did you bring me, a first-year student, here? The real murderer is sitting in the principal's office?"

"Sure enough! You know!"

"Since you really know something!" Kuhn was obviously agitated, and continued after a pause, "Then, brat! The next step is the topic, tell me everything you know, and I can consider letting you go!"

"If I say so, can you really let me go?"

"Of course! Of course! I keep my word!"

"Okay! Okay! That's good! You know! This secret has been kept in my heart for a long time." Keiz pretended to breathe a sigh of relief, and began to show his acting skills, making it up. "Whoa! Professor Quirrell is dead. He died in the Black Forest. There are no bones left, and he was blown into pieces by Dumbledore."

"You have to know, you have to know" Keiz whimpered and trembled, growling hysterically, "His bones and flesh foam splashed all over me at that time, do you know what that thing smells like? Some of it even"

"Ah!" A deep and painful roar came from the throat of the person opposite.

"Professor Quirrell, where did he go? Tell me, where did he go? Tell me quickly, if you don't want to, try something hard!" The tall investigator suddenly lost control of his emotions and roared loudly. "No! My master! He will be all right."

"Relax, relax, just like I said, he may have become a pile of ashes now!" After hearing the answer he wanted, Qiz also restrained his expression, and said calmly, "Together with the Mr. Mysterious Man hidden in his body!"

"You know! You know! You really know everything! Tell me, where is he?" Kuhn grabbed Qizi by the collar and lifted him up together with the stool under him.

"Relax, relax!" Keiz reminded him without changing his face, "Actually, the person you are really looking for has nothing to do, as long as you get the thing that Dumbledore hid, you can still bring him back to life!"

"You have to know, that's the Philosopher's Stone, it can make people live forever, and of course it can also bring the person you serve back to life!"

"How do you know?" Kuhn's expression completely changed!He smashed him and the chair to the ground, and took two steps back, "No, you shouldn't know this, you're just a first-year student!"

"Yes! Yes! I know this is very unreasonable, but who can refuse that kind of power?" The collision with the ground made him a little uncomfortable, but he continued, "Right, the kind of powerful power you have always wanted, only the great master can give us!"

"So I, a first-grade elementary school student, of course can't refuse such a charming power!" Qiz showed a look of reminiscence, "That night, I took that adult to the Black Forest to look for unicorns, you know, right? The blood of unicorns can replenish some physical strength for that adult, he is too weak!"

"What a pity! We were ambushed just after killing a unicorn."

"You're lying!" a shrill roar interrupted Keez's narration.

"Oh, you said yes, but is it important?" Keiz frowned and replied.

But he laughed in his heart, "These Death Eaters whose brains have been burned by black magic are really fun! They usually look serious and refined, but once their master is mentioned, they are like monkeys in a frenzy! Hysterical!"

"It's not important, right? The stone that Dumbledore hid is the most important thing!" Seeing that Kuhn didn't reply for a long time, Keiz continued.

"You know how to get it? Don't you? Tell me, or I'll kill you!" This time he finally responded.

"Be safe! Be safe! That lord has already told me everything. I always know where it is, but I have no chance and no helper. Now that I meet you, maybe we can work together to get it!"

"I don't believe you!" Kuhn's tone was full of doubts.

"If you really want to get that rock, let me go! I won't raise the alarm, I promise! I know where it is! I can take you to it too, and I have no reason to lie to you, do I?"

"If you don't believe me, I can tell you something. Did you receive an order from the lord two days ago to use a dragon egg to lure Hagrid to tell you how to control the three-headed dog?"

There was a skeptical expression on Kuhn's face, "Go on!"

"Do you know how to quiet Lu Wei? Of course it's music. I believe this should be the news that the lord ordered you to get from Hagrid!" He paused, "Can you trust me now? Look! After all, the lord even told me such important news!"

Kuhn untied him from the stool, but still did not untie him, "Take me to see, I don't believe anything you say, unless you see the real Philosopher's Stone, don't think about playing tricks, Dumbledore has been transferred by our people today! He walked with him, and most of the school's professors, there is only one old woman left in the school, think about it! She can't stop me!"

"Okay! Okay! I know, I know! Why don't you believe me?" Keiz said indifferently. "Come with me, you should know the location of that door!"

Half an hour later, the bell for turning off the lights rang throughout Hogwarts, and they came to the door that closed Lu Wei, "Have you prepared the harp? Only that thing can quiet the big guys inside for a while!"

Kuhn didn't reply. He took out a golden harp from the traceless production belt he carried with him, waved his magic wand, and the strings of the harp vibrated by themselves, playing soft music. The golden little mermaid on the harp also moved and made a wonderful sound.

"I'll warn you one last time, don't think about running away!" Kuhn said, waving his wand, and the rope tied around Keiz's body fell automatically.

"How could it be? I'm about to get the thing that can revive the great master. How could I run? I desire power more than you can imagine!" He pulled off the rope wrapped around his body with his hands and rubbed his numb arms and wrists.

"Alahuo hole is open!" Kuhn came to the door and the lock automatically popped open.

"Go and push the door!" He winked at Keiz.

Keiz walked over gently, and carefully pushed open the door.

Kuhn carried a huge harp and followed behind.

The music was really effective, and Lu Wei had stood up alertly when they first came in, still grinning at them.Just as soon as it heard the soft music, the eyelids of its six eyes drooped immediately, and then, the three heads yawned respectively.

Three long streams of saliva flowed out
The head in the middle lowered and sniffed against the ground, the other two heads also lowered together, and the huge body began to turn in circles.

soon!It lay down and fell into a deep sleep, snoring.

Seeing this, Kun was about to cast a spell to move its huge body away from the cellar door.

Keiz waved his hand to stop him, "The real way is not there, it's just a blindfold set by Dumbledore!"

"Follow me!" Keiz took out the key that Dumbledore gave him this morning, and groped on the wall.

"Sure enough!", he found a very inconspicuous keyhole on the wall, and inserted the keyhole.There was a rattling sound on the wall, and the wall bricks around the keyhole moved around, and soon parted a dark tunnel.

"Why do you have it?" Kuhn was very puzzled, and became more and more vigilant about Qiz's performance.

"What are you afraid of? I have made sufficient preparations before I told you, but I just need a person to assist in the implementation. Now that you are here, of course I can implement the plan!"

"Believe it or not? Otherwise, if you stay here, I'll go in and get you the Philosopher's Stone!" Seeing his disbelief, Chiz suggested.

"No! Wait! Let's go in together. I'm sorry you can't play any tricks!" Kuhn thought for a while, gritted his teeth and pressed his wand against Chizzy's back, "Lead the way!"

The props and supporting roles are already in place. I wonder if the protagonist is on the road?
Time went back a little, approaching evening.

The three of them went back to a class after being separated from Keiz, and after class they went to the hut where Hagrid lived.

As soon as they entered the door, a few people found that he was furtively and obsessively holding something and admiring it.

"What's that? Hagrid?" The sudden voice startled Hagrid, and he hurriedly put the things in his hands under the table and hid them.

"Don't hide, Hagrid, we all saw it, what's that?" Hermione wanted to stop him aloud.

"Okay! Okay!" Hagrid got up and closed the door of the hut, took out the round thing, and continued, "But you have to keep it a secret for me, this is what I want most—a fire dragon egg!"

"Oh! My God! It's so cool! It's real!" Ron exclaimed. "My brother works in the reserve. I've seen the photo of the dragon egg he sent back. It's exactly the same!"

Harry followed suit, "Cool! Hagrid, where did you get this?"

"Where did you get it, Hagrid?" said Ron, standing up to the table and looking more closely at the large egg. "It must have cost you a fortune!"

"Win it," Hagrid began to babble. "It was the Christmas holidays, and I was drinking in the village and playing cards with a stranger. To be honest, the man was probably just dying to get rid of it..."

"But, do you understand this stuff?" Hermione asked after Hagrid had talked for a while.

"Oh, I've been reading," said Hagrid, pulling out a large tome from under his pillow, "Borrowed from the library - Breeding Dragons for Fun and Profit - a little outdated, of course, but it's pretty solid. Put the eggs on the fire, because their mother breathes on them"

"Don't you think it's a bit strange?" Hermione said to Harry, remembering the purpose of her group coming here, "What Hagrid wants most is a dragon, and a stranger happens to have a dragon egg in his pocket? How many people walk around with a dragon egg all day long? You know, it's against wizarding laws! Don't you think they are lucky to find Hagrid?"

So Harry interrupted the chattering Hagrid.

"Wait! Hagrid, I have something to ask you. Do you remember the night you won Norbert at poker? What did the stranger you play with look like?"

　Ask for a ticket!
