“I have been teaching at Hogwarts for so many years, and I have rarely encountered such a thing.” Professor Flitwick said with emotion.
He shook his head and said to several students: “Miss Dupin, Mr. Kent, I will tell Principal Dumbledore and your respective parents what happened.”
“By the way.” He looked at Du Ping, who still couldn’t recover, “Do you have anything to say, Miss Du Ping.”
“Teach…Professor…” Du Ping trembled and raised his head with tears in his eyes, “You…can you really tell that what Jacob said is the truth?”
“Yes, I can tell.”
Professor Flitwick said affirmatively.
“You little wizards don’t have complete control over your magic power. In other words, it’s very rare for Mr. Trollope to be able to control your own magic power.”
Scott smiled when he was mentioned. He did not expect that Professor Flitwick would not forget to praise him at this time.
Professor Flitwick went on to explain: “Experienced wizards can infer their most authentic emotional reactions at the moment from the obvious fluctuations in magic power of young wizards.”
At this time, Jacob stood up tremblingly again and said: “That…that morning, I lied to you…”
“Of course I can tell, Jacob.” Professor Flitwick smiled reassuringly at him, “Based on my experience as a professor at Hogwarts for many years, generally speaking, I will not take the initiative to expose students. lie.”
Jacob gave him a shy smile.
However, at this time, Scott discovered that Lisa Dupin was completely confused.
She seemed to have no idea who she should believe, and she was so confused that she twisted her blond hair into a bird’s nest.
“Impossible…impossible…”
She muttered to herself, completely unable to accept the collapse of the perfect Miss Travers image in her mind.
“Miss Dupin, you still have two questions to answer.” Scott did not let her go.
He sat on the sofa, leaned forward, and looked at her with oppressive eyes.
“As we all know, Roger has always been a playboy…”
“Hey!” Roger said dissatisfiedly.
Scott ignored his protest and continued to ask Dupin: “You have known about Roger’s philandering for a long time. Why do you suddenly have a desire for revenge against Roger now? Also, what did you use to curse Roger?” Where did the black magic item broom come from?”
However, Du Ping just cried and avoided his eyes.
A hint of unbearability flashed across Professor Flitwick’s face, but he still didn’t say anything.
Scott did not waver at all, just looking at Dupin.
“I do not know I do not know!”
Du Ping finally couldn’t stand it anymore and started to cry again.
“It was them, it was they who laughed at me when I talked about that! And… and… I was very angry when I saw Roger with other girls!”
“Dark magic items.” Scott emphasized again.
“That… that was…” Dupin began to cry hiccups, “it was given to me by Morgan Avery.”
Scott leaned back on the sofa and crossed his hands, “Is it Miss Avery? So do you know that dark magic item will make Roger’s broomstick explode directly?”
“I don’t know! Really! I just wanted to teach Roger a lesson, Morgan said that would just make his broom malfunction.”
She cried again.
“And…and…she said that the broom would emit smoke to give a warning before that. Morgan also said…she said…if Roger is a qualified Quidditch player, nothing will happen…”
She looked at Roger pitifully and begged him: “I’m sorry, Roger, I’m sorry, I will give you a new broom!”
“That’s what you should do.” Scott said without mercy.
Du Ping suddenly cried louder.
She said desperately: “What should I do? My parents will be disappointed with me when they know all this… They were very happy to write a letter when they heard that I had made friends with Miss Travers. Encourage me…maybe they can only go to Azkaban to see me in the future…”
“It’s really pitiful, isn’t it?” Roger looked at the little witch’s pitiful look and muttered in Scott’s ear unbearably.
Scott was noncommittal.
However, he also further realized the ridiculousness of the so-called “emerging wizard families”.
Lisa Dupin’s admiration for Jasmine Travers is hard to say not influenced by her family’s longing for a pure-blood family.
But they are all ordinary wizards. The arrogance of the pure-blood family can be said to be due to the history and heritage of the family. In order to make themselves look superior, these people have deliberately created a “class”.
As a result, they became two-faced, don’t you think it’s ridiculous?
At this time, Professor Flitwick came out from behind his desk and said to them: “I am going to announce my handling of this matter.”
“Mr. Kent,” he said to Jacob, “Although the reason was because your family was threatened, you were definitely involved in destroying Mr. Davis’s broomstick.”
“I’m sorry, Professor.” Jacob lowered his head in shame, “I’m sorry, Mr. Davis.”
Professor Flitwick continued: “My punishment for you is after-school labor service for two months!”
Jacob nodded without objection.
“As for Miss Dupin.” Professor Flitwick looked at Dupin who was crying uncontrollably. “As for your punishment, I will make a decision after meeting with your parents and the principal to discuss it!”
“Will I really go to Azkaban?” Dupin shrank into a ball in fear.
Professor Flitwick shook his head, “As Mr. Brown said before, this depends on whether your parents will pay a large ransom for you.”
Dupin shrank even more.
“Now, Mr. Trollope and Mr. Davis, you two can go back.”
Professor Flitwick said to Scott and Roger.
“I will take Miss Dupin and Mr. Kent to the principal’s office.”
“Okay, professor.”
Scott and Roger stood up from the sofa and walked out of Professor Flitwick’s office.
The two walked through several corridors and came to the staircase of the main building of Hogwarts Castle, which was always changing irregularly.
“I forgot one thing.” Scott said suddenly.
“What?” Roger asked.
“I heard from the Weasley twins the other day that someone gave me an ugly nickname.” Scott’s expression immediately became ugly when he talked about this.
Roger showed an interested look, “What kind of nickname?”
“You don’t need to know.” Scott looked at him expressionlessly, “It’s just that the Weasley twins told me that this nickname came from Ravenclaw.”
Roger said with a strange expression: “So now you suspect that Travers deliberately let the Ravenclaw students spread your nickname in revenge against you?”
He obviously didn’t think it was worth worrying about to be given a nickname.
“Forget it.” Scott began to go down the stairs, “I’ll ask Jacob when he returns to Ravenclaw Tower. Now I decided to ask Eddie first.”
