The corridor of the castle at night was definitely not a good place to discuss things.
With Jon's weakness in his hands, Eddie finally relaxed a lot.
The two of them walked back while exchanging information about this matter.
Eddie was the one who talked, and Jon listened.
According to Eddie, Ben's abnormality started a month ago, but at that time, Jon didn't feel the feeling of being scanned, so he thought it was strange.
The two of them parted at the corridor of Ravenclaw Tower. After they agreed on a time and place to meet, Jon walked back alone.
After turning two corners and casting the Illusion Spell on himself, Jon quickly returned to the common room. According to the method taught by Helga, he gently knocked on the frame of Helga's portrait, then crawled back to the dormitory and swallowed a sleeping pill.
He had no choice. He had to use some special means to fall asleep quickly.
"What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Jon, who had just closed his eyes on his bed, appeared in the Demonic Fairy Castle in the next moment.
Helga was reading in the garden, surrounded by little fairies with butterfly wings. The scene was very harmonious.
"It's urgent. I found the source of that special feeling."
Jon quickly told Helga what happened in the past two hours. After listening, Helga closed the book in his hand and began to think.
"It seems that my previous idea was wrong. After so many years, the Black Wizard did come up with something new."
At least the music that Jon said and the magic to control people's actions didn't exist in her time. Otherwise, the war wouldn't have lasted so long.
"The problem is, how do we solve this problem? The one being controlled is a student of the Hogwarts, and he's also a victim. We can't do anything to him … Or, can you tell Dumbledore about this?"
It would be a waste not to use the principal in school.
"Of course not."
Helga shook his head and rejected the suggestion. "The portrait can't find out about this. If I were a ghost, maybe I could do it. But you reminded me that this can be done …"
…
Four hours later.
Jon sat on the bench, waiting for Eddie's arrival.
Hogwarts was actually quite big. Apart from the teaching building and the Quidditch stadium, the rest of the space was divided by various facilities, creating many semi-open secret spaces.
However, no one would come here on their own. The fact that these spaces in Hogwarts were not open to the students proved that there was still a certain amount of danger in here. The huge space in the castle was enough for the students to explore, so there was no need for them to go out and explore.
Once something happened, the professors would not be able to save him in time.
However, the reason why these spaces were half-open was because they were not guarded.
Students could still enter and leave this place, as long as they could see through the fog that shrouded the entrance, or if someone led the way.
Furthermore, after so many years of inheritance, these secret spaces had already been roughly divided into regions by the students of the four academies. The map of each academy's region was completely different. If one were to walk on the edge of two regions, it would be easy to get lost if one was not careful.
Because of this, students in the lower grades were not qualified to be here. Only students in the fifth, sixth, and seventh grades were qualified to be here. Therefore, this place was often a place for senior students to date.
It was like the small forest in Jon's school in his previous life.
But in fact, this was not all.
According to the information that Jon received from Helga, less than half of the space in Hogwarts was actually used for teaching. Even in the castle, only about two-thirds of the space was used for teaching. The rest of the space was basically solidified by the [Legendary Spell, Battle Fortress]. However, the specific content was designed by Madam Ravenclaw, and only the principals knew how to use it.
In fact, even the principals now probably did not know. When Jon heard this, he thought in his heart, otherwise, the school would not have been reduced to ruins in the end.
Dumbledore would not not tell his successor about such a powerful weapon before he died.
However, this was all in the future.
Other than the space occupied by [Battle Fortress], the other secret spaces that were divided up had the style of the school they belonged to. The place that Jon chose was between Hufflepuff Academy and Ravenclaw Academy. He had already told Eddie the specific way to enter through Béla, but he did not know when Eddie would come.
Eddie came rather quickly.
At around 9 a.m., his figure appeared in Jon's sight.
There was not much to do on a Saturday morning. It was just the beginning of April, and it was common for people to be sleepy and unable to wake up in the spring.
"Okay, hurry up and say it. Our seniors in the school did not allow us to come here, so we better hurry up and finish the matter."
"Sure, it's up to you. There's not much to say anyway."
Jon raised his hand and handed over a folded piece of paper. "Here, I've written it all down."
Eddie quickly opened the paper and looked at it. There were only two simple words written on it.
“killhim.”
He raised his head in shock and looked at Jon with eyes full of anger and fear.
"Why do you want to kill him?!"
Eddie almost shouted. He did not expect Jon to be so bold.
"Can't you look at the whole picture? I did not say kill him."
He pressed Eddie's hand and pointed at the paper.
"Look here and read it together."
Eddie followed Jon's finger and looked up.
It said, "Find him and kill him."
"I've already asked. This situation should be controlled by some kind of magic. As long as we find the mastermind and kill him, won't it be solved?"
When Jon spoke, his eyes were fixed on Eddie. He clearly saw that Eddie's body shook a few times when he said 'kill'.
Scared?
Well, he was only a first-year kid after all. He probably did not even dare to kill a chicken, let alone kill a person. The method that Helga taught him was not good enough.
"Relax, I'm not really going to kill him."
Jon patted the back of Eddie's hand. The hand was frighteningly cold. It was obvious that its owner was shocked.
"We just need to find out who's behind this and tell the professor about it, right?"
"That's easy for you to say."
Eddie, who was still unsettled, looked at Jon and felt that there was some kind of evil Wizard inside this boy's body. He lowered his voice.
"How are we going to find him? A Wizard who can use this kind of magic must be a very powerful wizard, and … what if it's a black wizard? "
