Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard Chapter 319

Chapter 319 Someone from the Ministry of Magic came and Hagrid was taken away

The parchment was almost an inch thick. After Cedric sat down, he handed them to Kyle.

 “What is this…” Kyle asked curiously.

 “Some photos of magic items.”

Cedric said, "I found this from the library after school started. I don't know if it will be useful. You should take a look first."

Kyle opened the book, which contained a photo and a long introduction. It looked like Cedric should have copied it from the book.

 The top photo is of a ghost-proof spyglass that looks like a spinning top. Further down are the gnosis glasses that can see through the invisibility cloak, and the pocket cauldron that can be hung around the neck... the time turner... the winged slingshot... the explosive pocket watch...

Together, these photos are about an inch thick. The magic items on them are all different, but they all have one thing in common... they all have chains.

 Some are for decoration, and some are for hanging on the body for easy carrying.

 “Remember what you gave me for Christmas?”

Cedric said, "I always feel that the shape of that thing is just a little special, just like the maps with the family crest we customized for Slytherin..."

He pointed to the slender chain on the explosive pocket watch in the photo, "As long as I have enough Galleons, I can completely change it into a more exquisite snake, badger, or lion..."

Kyle nodded thoughtfully.

Listening to what Cedric said, he seemed to be a little obsessed with appearance issues before.

This kind of chain is actually not important. It is more of a convenient carrying function. No matter what it looks like, it will not affect the item itself.

But in this case, this clue is of little value.

There are so many magic items with chains. If nothing else, the photos alone are almost an inch thick.

 Who knows what it fell from.

The lights in the Hufflepuff common room stayed on until late at night and were not turned off. Everyone was so sleepy that they all yawned and returned to their dormitories.

However, no one expected that early the next morning, someone suddenly told them that the heir had been caught!

 “I already knew it was him, the keykeeper.”

Lockhart's hair became meticulous again, and he said to everyone he met, "Ha, I gave him a chance. If he had given up then, he would not have been taken away by the Ministry of Magic now.

But that's okay...the crisis is over. "

 “Hagrid? How is this possible!”

Kyle and the others happened to be passing by here. Cedric's eyes widened and he hurriedly ran forward and asked: "Professor Lockhart, Hagrid was taken away by people from the Ministry of Magic?"

"Yes, the Minister of Magic and the Aurors are here." Lockhart showed his shining teeth, "Just last night, when you were sleeping soundly."

“I believe Hagrid, he can't be the successor of the Chamber of Secrets, there must be some mistake.” Connor murmured.

"I believe I know a little more than you do about Hagrid's arrest, Miss Prince."

Lockhart said in a smug tone: "Although he was well hidden, I still discovered him.

 The only thing he did wrong was that he shouldn't have opened the Chamber of Secrets after I came to Hogwarts.

And, my dear young man, the Minister for Magic would not have taken Hagrid away if he had not been 100% convinced that he was guilty. "

"What will happen to him? Will he be imprisoned in Azkaban?" Cedric asked worriedly.

"That's for sure..." Lockhart said triumphantly: "As punishment, he will always be with those dementors..."

 “Professor Lockhart!”

At this time, Professor McGonagall walked out from the side and looked at Lockhart with a serious expression, "I don't think you should tell the students this before the truth of the matter comes out."

"Sorry, Professor McGonagall." Lockhart said nonchalantly: "I just can't wait to share this good news." Professor McGonagall gave him a disgusted look, as if he had seen the transformation fail, and... A snuff box with a mouse tail.

"I wish you could be more careful, Professor Lockhart... and at least stop conveying the wrong information to your students all the time."

"As for you..." She looked at Kyle, Connor and Cedric, "Follow me...I have something to ask you."

 After saying that, Professor McGonagall walked straight outside the castle.

 When the three of them saw this, they quickly followed.

 Professor McGonagall walked all the way across the field and came to Hagrid's hut.

Hagrid has been taken away, and the hut is eerily deserted.

"Now, I need you to tell me the truth." Professor McGonagall pointed in the direction of the Forbidden Forest, "Were all those beast-repelling spells arranged by you?"

"Yes, Professor." Kyle nodded, "That was a long time ago, and there were Fred, George and Qiu. The six of us were busy all morning.

Hagrid is so lazy, he doesn't help at all. "

 Professor McGonagall's expression softened a lot and was no longer as serious as before.

 Fortunately, it was not a curse cast by Hagar, otherwise even Dumbledore might not be able to save him.

“By the way, Professor, was Hagrid really taken away?” Connor asked worriedly.

“I know you and Hagrid are on good terms, but unfortunately it's true.”

"but…"

 Professor McGonagall suddenly laughed, "Thanks to these beast banishing spells, Hagrid was just brought back to the Ministry of Magic for review."

"Because of the beast banishing curse?" Cedric scratched his hair, a little confused.

“This involves trace magic and the particularity of the expulsion spell.” Professor McGonagall explained: “Simply put, the expulsion spell is holistic, like a transparent wall.

If a large beast that is not affected by the banishment spell breaks through, it will break the wall and the magic trace will be changed accordingly. "

"You mean...these beast-repelling spells are still intact?" Kyle asked.

 “That's right.” Professor McGonagall smiled.

“The people at the Ministry of Magic originally thought that Hagrid was hiding monsters in the Forbidden Forest, but by chance, these banishing spells just proved that they were wrong.”

"Headmaster Dumbledore caught this... I can't tell you the specific process, but I can assure you that Hagrid will not be sent to Azkaban until the Ministry of Magic finds new evidence."

 After hearing what Professor McGonagall said, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

But Cedric still doesn't understand why people from the Ministry of Magic would arrest Hagrid... He rarely even goes to the castle, let alone controlling monsters to attack other people.

Professor McGonagall did not answer his question, but warned them not to talk nonsense when they returned.

Before returning to the castle, Kyle walked to Hagrid's wooden house and opened the door. As soon as Yaya saw him, he rushed over with joy.

This dog is always silly. He probably doesn't know what's going on yet, but that's fine.

Kyle took some dried meat from the shelf next to him and put it into his food bowl. Yaya immediately started eating happily, his tail wagging and purring.

 Hagrid would never give it such good food.

 “Hurry up, class is about to begin.”

Professor McGonagall urged her outside, and Kyle left the hut and followed her back to the castle.
