Chapter 18 Sorry, I Must Kill You

"Vijay, do you still remember what Professor Dumbledore said when we went to Gringotts that day..."

At this time, Tom also remembered what he whispered to Qin Weijie:

"Two vicious incidents occurred in the depths of Diagon Alley, and at least three or four innocent people were attacked. Since it was discovered at that time that someone had invaded Diagon Alley, even Professor Dumbledore, who went to Diagon Alley on business, knew about it. , why is the warning magic in Diagon Alley ineffective?"

Tom asked suspiciously, but Qin Weijie's heart turned cold.

Of course he knew why the warning magic had failed, because the entire attack that day was a well-planned capture trap, a trap with Qin Weijie as the bait.

Qin Weijie never thought that there would be such a secret that day.

In big family games, it is always ordinary people who are hurt, or ordinary wizard families.

Qin Weijie never believed that the Ministry of Magic would miss those four innocent security personnel when calculating the losses. Even if the Ministry of Magic missed the "Daily Prophet", it would not miss such a breaking news.

There is probably only one logic behind the lack of any reports—someone or an organization deliberately suppressed this matter.

This person or organization has great authority and can influence the Ministry of Magic and the "Daily Prophet".

Based on this speculation, two goals appeared in Qin Weijie's mind. The first was the Welfare Family, and the second was the Ministry of Magic.

And no matter who it is, what kind of attitude it is, what they have done has already made people shudder. Those are four lives, or are they four excellent security personnel who did their duties and died of their duties.

"It shouldn't be the Fuli family. The old Fuli is not short of this money, and his structure is not so narrow..." Qin Weijie thought to himself, "Ministry of Magic? Hector Foley? Why? If they are short of money, they can ask the Fuli family for it." !"

For this matter, Qin Weijie couldn't figure it out, so he could only stop thinking about these things for the time being.

However, due to the faint guilt rising in his heart, Qin Weijie decided to go and see the senior Paris Rufan. If necessary, he could send an owl letter to Old Foley after arriving at the school to help senior Paris get rid of Selwyn Family control and funding.

"It's really crowded here, why don't I go to Senior Paris's box."

Qin Weijie was about to get up as he said that, Dany and Oliver wanted to say something more, but Qin Weijie had already opened the door of the box first and walked to the aisle.

Tom and Ergou wanted to come out with Qin Weijie, but they were staggered by the violent shaking of the train.

Dany held Tom down, and used her wand to help the two dogs master their balance.

"The train is about to start, you'd better sit down obediently. Later, Lott and Hessens will go out for a trip, and it won't be so crowded by then."

Dany reminded Tom, and then looked helplessly at the two boys other than Oliver, who should be the so-called Lotter and Hysens.

The two also responded with a bad smile.

At the same time, the Hogwarts Express finally started to move, gradually leaving platform nine and three-quarters.

The platform staff finally breathed a sigh of relief.

One of them pressed his wand against his temple and murmured into the air: "The alert has been lifted, and no abnormalities have been found."

"Are you sure the boy got on the bus safely?" The voice of Captain Pierce came to mind in the staff

"The boy's identity should be protected by magic. I didn't find him, but the boy who was accompanying him has already boarded the car."

"That's good, all the team members can come back."

"Don't you need us to protect you on the train?"

"This year's Hogwarts Express train has added new magic, except for students and teachers, other people can't get on it at all!"

Pierce paused,

He continued: "Besides, after getting on the train, we are no longer in the scope of our responsibility. It is equivalent to handing over the task to Hogwarts, and whatever happens has nothing to do with us!"

...

As the train started, Qin Weijie pushed open the door of Senior Paris's box.

Paris was sitting curled up in the corner of the box with his arms around his knees. When he saw Qin Weijie coming in, Paris was startled. When he saw that it was Qin Weijie, a look of surprise appeared on his face. Legs down.

"Senior, that box is too crowded, can I come in and sit?"

"Yes... yes." Paris answered a little embarrassedly.

ku ku ku ku ku~

The train is galloping, and only the sound of the train can be heard in the entire box.

Senior Paris didn't speak, which made the atmosphere in the whole box a bit awkward.

Qin Weijie made a brief self-introduction, Paris also briefly introduced, and the two fell into silence again.

Paris seemed to be very nervous, his fingers were constantly digging at the seat of the train, and his nails had already left a lot of white scratches on the leather seat.

In order to get rid of this embarrassment, Qin Weijie spoke first: "Senior, which college do you belong to? Can you briefly tell me about the four major colleges? I'm a little afraid of being separated..."

Qin Weijie said, secretly cursing his poor acting skills in his heart.

"Okay... okay." Paris was taken aback for a moment, and then replied.

"I am a student of Ravenclaw... The founder of Ravenclaw is Rowena Ravenclaw, she is a very wise and knowledgeable person, so she hopes that the students who enter Ravenclaw will be , the most sensible and intelligent..."

When Paris talked about Ravenclaw, it was obvious that he was very satisfied with his college. From the narration, Qin Weijie could also hear that Paris was a very knowledgeable senior.

He has a comprehensive understanding of the history of the four colleges, and of course he is especially interested in Ravenclaw.

"Rowena Ravenclae believes that rational and intelligent people should be as free as the 'wind', with free will, free thought, as casual as the 'wind', unrestrained, unfettered..."

Speaking of this, Senior Paris paused, and his face became a little unnatural.

Qin Weijie guessed that the senior should be so distressed because he remembered that he would work for the Selwyn family after graduation.

"The element represented by Ravenclaw is 'wind', Gryffindor is 'fire', Hufflepuff is 'earth', and Slytherin is 'water'. Do these elements have any special meaning?"

Qin Weijie changed the topic.

"There are rumors."

"rumor?"

"That's right, there is a very old saying in Hogwarts that when the Sorting Hat sorts new students, in addition to considering the basic requirements of the four founders, it also needs to follow an even older elemental principle. I heard that The Sorting Hat considers elemental principles to take precedence over the requirements of the Four Founders."

Qin Weijie was puzzled: "Elemental principles? Earth, water, fire, and wind? The corresponding elements of the four colleges?"

"That's right. According to historical records, the four elements of earth, water, fire, and wind first came from the mysterious ancient India in the east. They called these four elements the four elements of creation. However, in the fifth century AD, the greatest magician Merlin Buan Rosius demonstrated again on this basis and found that the magic power of all wizards has elemental attributes, and the elemental attributes correspond to the four elements."

"Therefore, there are rumors that in addition to following the will of the founder, the sorting hat of Hogwarts will also consider the attributes of students' magic power to sort houses. Students whose living conditions are out of tune."

Listening to Paris's explanation, Qin Weijie once again lamented the erudition of this senior. Such a senior should be more suitable to be a scholar, rather than sell himself to the Selwyn family and become a young and Dangerous boy in the wizarding world.

"Then is there any way to know the attributes of my own magic power?" Qin Weijie asked

Paris thought for a while: "This is quite simple, I read it in a book. You can try to use a non-attribute magic, such as the levitation spell. Then observe your wand, if there is a blue flash on the wand The colored light is the 'wind' element, the green is the 'water', the red is the 'fire', and the yellow is the 'earth'."

Qin Weijie was thinking about whether he should give it a try, but senior Paris said again: "Of course, the theory about elements can only be regarded as a legend, and the theory of the attributes of magic power has not been recognized by the academic circles. You told a story, it’s better not to take it seriously, but to believe the mainstream magic theory.”

"Okay, I know."

Qin Weijie responded, but he was still thinking about the magic element that Paris said before.

In Qin Weijie's view, there is an inherent logic behind all the legends. Everything cannot be groundless. People don't understand the records of legends. It is likely that they have a problem with the angle of observation. It seems that it is obviously a magic angle. It is necessary to use science to cut in, so that you can research it.

"Vijay, is that black dog you got in the car just now? My sister Elena just entered the first grade this year like you. She likes puppies very much and always clamors for me to buy her one too. ..."

Paris obviously lost the nervousness and embarrassment at the beginning, and began to try to ask Qin Weijie.

"Yeah, that's my dog, my good friend, he is very obedient." Qin Weijie said, and then remembered something: "By the way, senior, why isn't your sister in the same box with you? Don't worry about her one person?"

Paris' face was startled, his breathing became obviously heavier, and his fingers began to unconsciously pick up the seat again.

After a long time, Paris seemed to have made a decision, patted his thigh, and looked at Qin Weijie solemnly.

"Vijay, do you have someone to protect even if you die?"

Qin Weijie was a little confused by Paris's question, but seeing Paris' serious face, Qin Weijie also thought about it seriously.

"It seems not." Qin Weijie put away his casualness and said very seriously.

"If so, would you betray your conscience in order to protect her?" Paris asked

Without hesitation, Qin Weijie said, "No, absolutely not! I believe that the person I guard would rather be destroyed than see me betray my conscience! Guarding by betraying my conscience will make this guard dirty."

"Betrayal of conscience will make the guardian dirty..." Paris repeated Qin Weijie's words.

Qin Weijie also realized something at this time, and he began to look cautiously at Paris.

Suddenly, Paris suddenly raised his head: "If I don't betray my conscience, they will kill her! Vijay, I'm sorry, I have to kill you!"

Saying that, Paris took out his wand from his inner pocket, and locked the door of the box with magic.

Qin Weijie pretended to be calm and said, "Why did you kill me?"

"I really want to tell you, but I have been enchanted by contract magic. As soon as I say them, my sister will die immediately! I'm sorry Vijay, I don't want to kill people, and I don't want to betray my conscience, but I have no choice. "

Paris said in pain, pointing the wand in his hand firmly at Qin Weijie, but he did not release the curse for a long time.

Qin Weijie could see that Paris was still hesitating. He was forced to kill him. Who on earth wanted to kill him? Is it the one who hired the Church of the Goddess of Death again?

"How are you sure it's mine? I don't think anyone will know my real identity unless it's revealed by the confidential person. Could it be..."

"You have been cast with the Loyalty Curse, just as that person guessed..." Paris frowned, thinking hard, and trying to complete the ideological construction of his first murder

"The secret keeper didn't reveal your identity, but I saw the dog next to you. The person told me, 'The target is a boy, whose identity is probably concealed by magic. The biggest characteristic is that he will bring a black dog to school. ' Sorry, that's all I can say."

Qin Weijie was shocked, knowing that the person who brought Ergou to school must be someone close to him, because Qin Weijie never took Ergou to other places except Wu's Orphanage in the past few months, even to the opposite corner. Xiangdu never took Ergou with him, but let Ergou play by himself near Charing Cross Road.

"Maybe I can help you." Qin Weijie tried to negotiate. Although he was calm on the surface, he was actually panicking at the moment.

The previous two assassinations were protected by someone, but this time he has been cornered.

"It's useless." Paris shook his head: "But don't worry, after I kill you, I will commit suicide too, so I will pay you with my life."

"Bones to pieces!"

"Alahoo hole is open!"

The two spells were almost at the same time, the former was Paris' ultimate move, and the latter was Qin Weijie's means of escape.

The door of the carriage opened wide, and Qin Weijie rolled out, but his left shoulder was still scratched a little by Paris' wand.

A sharp pain hit, Qin Weijie felt as if his left shoulder had been shot, Qin Weijie looked at his left shoulder, the entire shoulder had been deformed and looked extremely distorted.

Qin Weijie was sure that his left scapula had suffered a comminuted fracture.

"Repair as before~"

Qin Weijie rolled out of the car, endured the severe pain and hastily cast a repair spell on his left shoulder, but the effect was not obvious, after all, the injury was too serious.
