035. Nothing
"sure."
Professor Fox pulled out his wand and handed it to Kingsley.
Kingsley sighed with the wand that seemed quite old.
"I still remember its material, willow wood, phoenix tail feather, 11 inches long. I was shocked when I was holding it and released the flashback spell."
"That's not a glorious history," Professor Fox said calmly.
Kingsley nodded. He could see that Fox didn't think about mentioning the past, so he picked up his wand and connected Professor Fox's wand to the past and used the flashback spell.
"Incisor Tooth Expansion Curse, Bat Essence Curse, Stinging Curse, Sticking Curse, Hard Tongue Curse, Eyebrow Curse... Have you used many different poison curses many times recently?"
The results of the inspection puzzled Kingsley. These spells should rarely be used for adult wizards.
"Experimental needs." Professor Fox's answer was very simple.
Kingsley also heard of his experimental research, but although he was a little bit out of the way, he was barely within the legal scope, so he couldn't say much.
Professor Fox shrugged: "Since there is nothing wrong, can you return it to me?"
Kingsley handed the wand back to his hands, and instead showed regret or disappointment on his face, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he turned to Professor McGonagall and said.
"Professor McGonagall, can you help me get an appointment with the students who arrived at the scene as soon as possible? I have some questions to ask them."
Then they left Professor Fox's office and came to Professor McGonagall's office.
Lynn and Cedric were quickly called here, and the Slytherin girl who came here together was the first Slytherin girl to see Seubert.
On the way here, Cedric secretly told Lynn what had happened in the auditorium before.
"Professor Fox, who reported to the two Aurors from the Ministry of Magic, was said to be very angry."
Lynn nodded: "I know, when I came here, I watched people around him in the lounge, listening to him telling his glorious achievements."
"Then do you think the murderer is Professor Fox?" Cedric couldn't help asking.
Lynn never expressed his opinion on this when he practiced the spell with him.
"I never make a conclusion about something," Lynn said softly, "especially when most people are biased."
Cedric scratched his forehead as if thinking about his words.
When he arrived at the vice principal's office, Kingsley's main question was not the two of them, but the Slytherin girl.
"When you saw that boy, did you notice that there were some special phenomena around him?"
The girl was obviously a little nervous, and she stammered in Kingsley's eyes.
"Sir, I, I don't quite understand what special phenomenon you are referring to?"
Kingsley was silent for a few seconds before speaking.
"Just... do you have a feeling that there is an invisible person staring at you next to Seubert?"
Hearing his words, the girl shivered and she became even more nervous.
"I, I don't know sir, when, I was so scared at the time, I didn't notice anything."
Kingsley looked a little disappointed. The girl was too timid and could not ask anything.
"What about you?" He turned his eyes to Lynn and the others, "Have you noticed any suspicious things or people at that time?"
Lynn and Cedricci shook their heads and said no.
Just when Kingsley was very disappointed, Cedric suddenly remembered something.
"While Lynn and I were practicing spells by the Black Lake, we saw a little wizard returning to the castle from outside in a very embarrassed manner."
In an instant, Kingsley cheered up and asked hurriedly.
"At what time? He came back from that direction? What's his name?"
"Around 6 o'clock in the morning, he walked along the Black Lake, which was the direction of the willow that the professor usually asked us to stay away from. The name... I don't know him, I don't know what his name is."
At the same time, at Cedric's reminder, Lynn also recalled this incident.
"His name is Ian Campbell, and he is a freshman in Ravenclaw."
Kingsley looks so excited now!
He suddenly stood up from the chair, as if he was about to go to find the little wizard named Yian himself.
However, after hearing the name, Professor McGonagall's expression changed again and again.
"We'll go find him now. I have a premonition that even if this little wizard is not the murderer, the murderer must have something to do with him..."
"Sit down! Kingsley!"
Just as Kingsley was about to beat his hands, Professor McGonagall's scream shocked everyone present.
Both the Auror and the little wizard looked at Professor McGonagall with amazement.
Professor McGonagall tried hard to calm down his emotions and ordered Lynn and the others:
"You can leave, but be careful! Don't tell anyone about what you saw Campbell that day, remember it's anyone!"
Although Lynn and Cedric were a little unclear, they also knew that the current situation was not something they could join. The two nodded quickly and then quickly left the vice principal's office.
Kingsley also found that things were not simple, so he returned to the chair and frowned.
"Is there anything wrong with that student? Professor."
Professor McGonagall didn't say anything, and her mood seemed to have gradually calmed down, saying to Sevic, who was standing aside:
"Please avoid it? I want to tell Shakel about something more personal."
Sevic nodded in a hurry and then left here.
Only Professor Kingsley and Professor McGonagall remain in the office.
Professor McGonagall stared at Kingsley.
"Shakel, I can assure you that child has nothing to do with this attack, and you can't continue investigating him!"
Kingsley seemed a little puzzled: "Can you tell me why?"
Professor McGonagall took a deep breath, and was silent for a while before speaking.
"You are our man Shakel, but I can't tell you very clearly without Albus' permission. Do you still remember the Remus's past?"
...
The Aurors eventually returned in vain.
After they left, Professor McGonagall announced in the auditorium that the Aurors had proved Professor Fox's innocence and that the attack on the black magic was not what he did.
Although some young wizards have already determined that Professor Fox is a dark wizard, most of the students are still quite convinced by Professor McGonagall.
The attack was a bit unsuccessful, and Hogwarts gradually relaxed its guard over time.
In the next two months, until after Halloween, Hogwarts was always in a calm state.
This is not just because the murderer is not committing the crime, but most importantly, Professor Dumbledore returned to Hogwarts before Halloween.
