Hogwarts’s Affectionate and Righteous Slytherin - Chapter 146

, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Hogwarts: The Sentimental and Righteous Slytherin!

Snape was speechless for a moment. He didn’t know what to say to comfort her, so he could only analyze dryly: “Rigi, according to what you and Lily said, I think it’s time to find the MacDonald first, immediately.”

“That’s right! Sev! Let’s go!”

“I…we?”

“No! I’ll just go with Severus. If you haven’t seen Mary come back after curfew, Lily, go and tell Professor McGonagall.”

The Forbidden Forest is not safe, and with what happened to the unicorn cubs a while ago, Reggie didn’t want Lily to follow along.

Lily was a little impatient: “Mary is my friend! Or do you think I will drag you down?! Don’t underestimate me, my ranking in the dueling club is not much worse than yours.”

“I didn’t mean that, Lily, it’s just that we are more familiar with the Forbidden Forest…”

“What?! But the professor said – don’t let me know why you are so familiar with the Forbidden Forest!”

Reggie: “…”

In the end, the three-person group turned into a four-person group, and several of them happened to meet Anthony who was walking back at the gate of the castle.

*****

Reggie came to the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest again, there was no way, the frequency of this time was a bit outrageous.

As soon as he came in, he felt like he was coming home. He was familiar with the road, and Lily glared at him several times.

She had thought that only people like Potter would like to do things that violate the school rules!

From this point of view, Regis must have visited the Forbidden Forest a lot!

While Rui Ji seemed calm, in fact, a group of people panicked.

They passed through a small forest path, the Forbidden Forest was very quiet at the moment, and there was no one around.

Ruggie walked in front, not in a hurry, more leisurely.

After Lily brings Mary’s belongings, Reggie casts a complex tracking spell.

Lily let out a long sigh of relief when she first knew that Mary was still alive.

After such a long time, she is no longer the simple and ignorant little witch before, and she already knows how malicious those people are towards Muggle-born wizards like them!

Following Reggie all the way, it didn’t take long for them to find Mary.

It’s a spooky place!

Reggie was familiar with this place, because it wasn’t too far from the Thestral’s habitat.

“Mary? Where are you, Mary?”

Lily called out in a low voice, but no one responded, and she could only cast her doubtful eyes on Reggie again.

Reggie frowned slightly when he saw this, his spell couldn’t go wrong.

“Super fluorescent flashes.”

“Oh—!” Lily let out a short scream, but Regis quickly covered her mouth with her eyes.

The scene in front of them made several people feel chills.

Mary sat in a clearing, her body covered with colorful snakes.

Her eyes were terrified and covered in red blood.

If it wasn’t for sure, Reggie couldn’t believe she was still alive.

“Help me.” Mary’s lips twitched, silently calling for help.

The sudden light not only allowed them to see the scene in front of them, but also attracted the attention of the group of snakes.

Several of them are shaking their bodies and approaching them. Although they don’t know what kind of snakes they are, from the outside, they are all poisonous without exception.

Mary’s condition looked very wrong, her face was pale and her eyes almost turned red.

The largest snake surrounded her neck with its body, hovered above her head, and spit letters at several people “hissing”.

It is impossible to say whether the situation is good or bad.

“sizzle”

When several people heard that Regis began to make that gloomy voice again, Lily shivered.

After a while, the group of snakes retreated in all directions, and soon disappeared.

“Mary! How are you?” Lily rushed forward quickly.

She was very worried about Mary’s condition, but dared not touch her for fear of any wounds on her body.

After waiting for a long time, Mary didn’t do anything, and of course she didn’t respond to Lily.

“What’s wrong with her?” Lily turned her head and asked Reggie anxiously.

“Stop the curse.”

Mary’s body suddenly collapsed to the side.

In the end, several people rushed her to the school medical wing urgently.

******

“Well, you guys are too careless! If you want me to say, you little guys don’t understand what love is at all! She’s just a little weak at the moment, and it’s not a big problem, but it’s best to stay in the hospital tonight for observation, if there’s no problem, Classes can resume as normal tomorrow.” Madam Pomfrey complained to several people.

Several people were standing outside the ward, and Mary had already lay down on the hospital bed after drinking the potion given by Madam Pomfrey.

All the way, Mary did not speak.

In the end, it was Reggie who made the decision. This matter cannot be said at the moment. After everything has recovered from Mary, and after asking her for details, decide whether to report it to the professor.

Mary nodded, but still didn’t speak.

That’s why Madam Pomfrey’s accusation came now-they declared to her that Mary became like this because she had been on a hunger strike for several days because she had lost her love.

Fortunately, there were no wounds on her body, and the snakes obviously did not receive the order to attack, but this made the scalp even more numb.

Mary’s appearance is the best proof.

Her psychological defense line has completely collapsed. Fortunately, she is a witch and her mental strength is stronger than that of ordinary people. Otherwise, a little girl would encounter this kind of thing-watching a lot of snakes around her and crawling on her body. Crawling up and down, and still unable to move in the process, may have gone crazy long ago.

Lily breathed a sigh of relief, and before leaving, they entered the ward to say goodbye to Mary Macdonald after obtaining Madam Pomfrey’s consent.

After drinking the potion, Mary’s mood stabilized a little, but she seemed a little sleepy.

Reggie winked at Lily, indicating that this was not a good time to ask questions.

The few of them didn’t say anything to Mary, just a simple farewell. Mary didn’t say anything, she nodded gratefully to them, and returned to her ecstatic appearance.

Several people saw this, and before Madam Pomfrey opened their mouths to drive them out, they left wisely.

…

“Mary doesn’t remember why she appeared in the Forbidden Forest again.” In the library, Lily said in a low voice after glancing in the direction of Mrs. Pince vigilantly.

She took her breakfast to see Mary early this morning. Today, she is in much better shape, but it also makes the mystery more and more serious.

She doesn’t remember anything!

“I don’t know, why did I appear in the Forbidden Forest, I felt like I had a dream, and when I woke up, I found that I was already in the Forbidden Forest, surrounded by… those terrifying guys, unable to move. Oh— —”

Touching those horrible memories, Mary broke down and cried.

Snape’s eyelids trembled: “Don’t remember?”

Reggie looked at each other suspiciously, it seemed, did Snape know?

“Sounds like sleepwalking – oh, sorry, Anthony, maybe you don’t know, sleepwalking is like a disease of the Muggle world. It makes people do things in their dreams that they don’t control, but in the After the situation, they will not remember at all.” Lily said to Anthony Cope with a question mark on his face.

Sleepwalking?

How can it be.

Don’t forget that there are also shadows of Mulseb and Flint.

“She’s also under a confinement spell — sleepwalking can’t spell herself.” Reggie denied Lily’s claim.

“I think I know what’s going on.” Snape had to raise his voice a little to interrupt their discussion of the question.

Of course, this move also attracted Mrs. Pince’s attention.

Another stare!

Regis was a little helpless, showing a signature smile of treating elders, with a faint smile on his face, looking very gentle and humble.

Of course, the “hissing” sound at the group of snakes yesterday was not so gentle.

“You know what’s going on? Sev, hurry up and say it.” After Mrs. Pince’s attention finally shifted from them, Lily couldn’t wait.

“Rigi, Anthony, don’t you think MacDonald’s state is a little familiar?” Snape asked the two of them.

Regis glanced at him, and when did he learn to cheat!

Snape, like a roundworm in his stomach, hesitated for a while, then said straight to the point: “Have you forgotten? In Gringotts, when we were in the underground vault, a goblin suddenly appeared, and then the spell you used it.”

Lily’s expression became a lot more unnatural, she hesitated for a moment, and whispered the word: “Imperial Curse?”

Snape nodded.

Reggie gave him a surprised look.

Mary under the Imperius Curse?

Likely.

In this way, it can explain why she unknowingly ran to the Forbidden Forest, and can’t remember everything else.

only……

In this case, Mary’s loss must be settled!

This matter is likely to remain unresolved. Whether it is reported to Professor McGonagall or not, there is no way to deal with Mulseb and Flint.

Because the biggest problem with a controlling spell is that it’s hard to follow after it’s been lifted.

The Imperius Curse is one of the three Unforgivable Curses, and is arguably the most iconic control spell.

Later, after the fall of Voldemort, the Death Eaters claimed that they were under the Imperius Curse and knew nothing about what they had done.

It was because after the Imperius Curse was lifted, it was impossible to confirm whether it had happened as claimed by the person concerned!

Unless the caster’s wand was checked with a Flashback Charm, even if Dumbledore came, it would be impossible to confirm whether MacDonald was under the Imperius Curse.

And check the wand – Regis believes that after doing all this, Murseber’s gang has already cleaned up the traces of the spell on it.

“But—the Imperius Curse is an Unforgivable Curse, and they will be caught in Azkaban for this!” Lily questioned, her tone a little hesitant.

Anthony kindly corrected her: “You have someone by your side who is still fine.”

Lily looked at Reggie subconsciously, and when she met his gaze, as if being stabbed, she immediately avoided it.

MacDonald is indeed quite unlucky.

Even though there are many people in Gryffindor who will be bullied by those guys, it is rarely used in this way.

Most of the time it’s just a few curse words or loud taunts behind the back.

“If it’s the Imperius Curse! Then we should report this to Professor McGonagall, they can’t do this to Mary!” Lily made a decision.

However, Reggie immediately denied this and told her about the Imperius Curse.

Simply put, from the moment Mary woke up, they couldn’t prove that each other was under the Imperius Curse.

“And Lily, we can’t explain why we showed up in the Forbidden Forest in the middle of the night, of course, we all know that Reggie found it, but we are banned from entering the Forbidden Forest, especially when Headmaster Dumbledore starts school this year. Emphasizes that,” Snape analyzed.

After listening to his words, Lily glanced at Regis with some disapproval, but the latter’s gaze seemed to be caught by the book on the table used to hide people’s ears, and she didn’t look at her at all.

“Is that the case? If they’re not punished, and this time the Imperius Curse, what about the next time? Or, even if I look at Mary later, what about the others?”

Lily’s words left several people speechless.

It is better to rely on yourself than others.

Only a thousand days of being a thief, how can there be a thousand days of preventing thieves.

In the final analysis, it is still a flaw in the school rules, or the wizard is difficult to discipline.

Magic, both pros and cons.

A little wizard, as long as he has a wand in his hand, he has the right to hurt others.

Of course, not everyone does this.

But they have the ability to do so.

“Don’t get excited, Lily. What’s more, this is all just speculation at the moment. Are we going to find Professor McGonagall directly, tell her that we went to the Forbidden Forest to find Mary, and then suspect that someone put the Imperius Curse on Mary?” Regis calmly road.

“That sounds completely unconvincing, and what if we came to the conclusion that Mary might have been under the Imperius Curse? You know, Professor Prewett didn’t teach us that.”

Could it be that he grinned at the serious-looking professor and said, “Hey, Professor McGonagall, it’s like this, I’ve used this spell, more than once.”

Lily seemed to be fooled by his rhetoric, and seemed a little shaken.

Indeed, they have no proof!

Also, she was ashamed of her vile idea, and she didn’t want Reggie to risk it.

But Mary….

Although the relationship between the two is far apart now compared to the closeness at the beginning of the school year~www.mtlnovel.com~, they are still classmates. No matter which classmate encounters such a thing, she will not sit back and watch!

What’s more, this is her former friend.

Lily felt a suffocation in her chest, which made her very annoyed: “Is there no other way? If you do good deeds, you should be known, and if you do wrong deeds, you should be punished. Method?”

“Of course there is.” Regis was not as bored as she was. Seeing that Lily was finally relieved, her tone became more relaxed, “But that has nothing to do with you, leave it to us.”

“What do you want to do?” Lily looked at them vigilantly.

Reggie looked away.

Anthony blinked innocently.

Finally she looked at Snape.

Snape looked down at the Potions textbook slowly, letting the hair that was starting to grow greasy again cover his face.
