Hogwarts starts with stealing power

Chapter 98 Supersensory Curse, Enhancement of Five Senses
The term "enemies" is not serious.

As the Headmaster of Hogwarts, Dumbledore was the one who knew the most secrets of Hogwarts before he stepped down.

His casual words can make a certain place on campus a forbidden area.

His will is sort of the will of Hogwarts, and if he wants something in Hogwarts—

Everyone will think so, and it must be true. He is definitely the one with the least difficulty in obtaining it. No one knows Hogwarts better than him!
What's more, that forbidden area was set up by Dumbledore, and there was something between him and Nico Flamel. Even Hagrid had heard about it and said it was the No. 1 secret.

Under all circumstances, Lin Xia did not think that Snape, as a school professor, dared to challenge the principal's authority so openly.

Hermione said: "So Snape went secretly."

She still stood firm in her thoughts.

Lin Xia pondered: "But the news about his leg injury was leaked. Filch knew about it, Harry saw it, and all the little wizards in class the next day found that his walking posture was wrong. As for the forbidden area, I believe there were more than one little wizard. The wizard saw him going to the fourth floor."

"Do you think a person who really wants to steal something would expose his true thoughts?"

Draco agreed: "I also think this is not right. The so-called guilty conscience of a thief. The more you want to steal something, the more you have to act normal so that no one can find it. Professor Snape's various behaviors are too abnormal. .”

Hermione: "Maybe he wants to do the opposite. Let us lose our vigilance against him through this analysis and think that he is fine."

Lin Xia smiled: "If you do this, Professor Snape will not be the only suspect. Hermione, you forgot someone."

"Who?"

Lin Xia said calmly: "Professor Quirrell."

"Honestly, ever since I entered Hogwarts, I thought he was the strangest professor."

……

After Hermione left, Draco and Lin Xia lowered their heads to read again.

Since the laboratory has a magic text array to imprison magic power, the gathered magic power has not spread out, but has all gathered in the laboratory, which makes the concentration of magic power in the laboratory very high.

Even if you don't do anything, just stay here quietly, you will feel like you are being continuously poured with magic power, and your body is absorbing magic power all the time.

In the past, Draco could not detect such subtle changes in his body, but after practicing "Purple Gold Mysterious Gang Secret Record", he found that his sense of magic had become sharper.

Gradually, he was able to understand Lin Xia.

Understand why Lin Xia is so powerful.

If it were him, if he had such a keen sense of magic early on, he would only be more arrogant than Lin Xia.

In the silence, Draco suddenly spoke, breaking the silence in the room.

"I think there is indeed something wrong with Professor Snape, and Hermione's suspicion is not entirely wrong, but if we really want to compare who has the bigger problem, Professor Quirrell has the bigger problem.

During the first period of school, Quirrell's behavior was not at the level of a professor hired by the school. In recent times, his teaching style has improved a bit, but his standard is still not as good as other professors. "

He has never seen such a timid professor, so cautious when facing students.

Lin Xia turned the page in the book: "It's incredible that Hogwarts can tolerate Professor Quirrell until now. Many people are used to Professor Quirrell's strange behavior and take it for granted."

This is how the so-called blind spots are formed.

People often have to get out of their own habitual thinking in order to see the world again.

Draco looked at her, "So, we really need to help her find information. Why don't you tell her about Nico Flamel?"

For a child who grew up in the Muggle world, it was normal for Hermione not to recognize Nico Flamel, but they were different.

They grew up in the wizarding world and were exposed to everything about magic, so they naturally knew about Nico Flamel.

This is a famous alchemist and manufacturer of magic items. His name is often associated with magic items and magical knowledge. He is the longest living person in the wizarding world and has long passed his 600th birthday.

Many of the magic items they used as children were made by Nico Flamel.

Lin Xia said slowly: "Apart from anything else, Hermione is our friend, so of course we have to help our friends."

She lightly tapped the "Intermediate Transformation" on the table with her finger and lowered her eyes: "It's just that my intuition told me that now is not the time to tell her. Let's wait."

That night.

In Lin Xia's sleep, the fortune-telling compass in her mind slowly turned and stopped at the "Dream Divination" column.

She had a prophetic dream.

Lin Xia saw Snape standing in front of Quirrell in a remote corner of Hogwarts and warning him sternly: "Quillo, you have crossed the line!"

Quirrell's eyes were wide open and he was wearing the clothes she gave him. He seemed to like this Dunhuang style clothes very much.

"Snape, I'm just doing what I should do." Quirrell answered clearly.

Snape's eyes became very gloomy, "Quirrell, which side are you on? This is different from what you said last time."

Quirrell stared at him: "Professor, I should ask you this question. Don't forget the will of our great master. The Dark Lord is about to bring his..."

The next morning, Lin Xia woke up from her sleep and recalled the dream she had last night, raising her eyebrows.

Great, no need to do the elimination method now.

Whether it was Snape or Professor Quirrell, both of them were suspicious.

But one thing is certain, Quirrell is definitely on the Dark Lord's side. As for Snape...

Lin Xia thought for a while and classified him as pending for the time being.

If Snape was also on the side of the Dark Lord, there was no reason for him and Quirrell to be so tense in their dreams.

Time passed little by little, and December came in the blink of an eye. It was still warm as spring inside Hogwarts Castle, but the ground outside the castle was covered with several feet of snow, and the great black lake behind the castle was also covered with hard ice.

The Weasley twins have been very proud of themselves recently, and they often brush their faces in front of Lin Xia. They no longer ask her about the progress of her thesis.

When the betting opened, the one with the highest odds [the paper will be published in November] had expired. George and Fred no longer worried about going bankrupt, and even looked forward to how much they would make in the end.

The longer it goes on, the more they make.

"Look, George and Fred were punished by the professor again." Draco wiped the soaked glass and said.

They were in Charms class.

Lin Xia has completed the practice of "Withdrawal Curse" and is learning the "Transformation Curse" and "Supersensory Curse" by herself.

Draco also learned the "Withdrawal Charm". Before learning the new spell on his own, he turned his head and looked out the window, intending to relax and adjust his restricted vision.

Lin Xia picked up the wand and cast the "super-sensory spell" on herself for an unknown number of times. While doing so, she turned to look out the window.

The "Supersensory Curse" has no fixed usage posture. It is a very random spell that can enhance the resonance of the wizard's five senses.

It is said that everyone who uses the supersensory spell has a different experience.

At the same time, because there is no complete set of paths, some wizards will never be able to use it, but some wizards will succeed as soon as they use it.

Therefore, the "super-sensory curse" is at the critical value between intermediate and advanced curses.

Even Lin Xia didn't succeed the first time he used it.

Far outside the window to the northwest, the two seniors, George and Fred, turned into two small ink dots and were sent to clear the snow outside the castle by the professor.

How could we get snow in this kind of horrible weather? At least we had to wait for the snow to stop, so the two started playing outside.

Lin Xia's expression paused slightly, and she found that her vision was gradually adjusting, and her sense of "vision" was constantly increasing.

Her pupils shrank, and her eyes were like real magnifying glasses, magnifying the two barely visible dots in the distance. Finally, they were big enough to see clearly the smiles hanging on the corners of their mouths, with little white snow falling on their eyelashes.

Is this the power of the super-sensory spell?
Lin Xia observed them with interest and also studied his current state.

She asked: "Why were the two of them punished?"

Draco blinked, rolled his eyes, moved his neck and said, "I think he was punished for playing a prank on Professor Quirrell again."

"The senior twins don't seem to like Professor Quirrell very much. Last time they enchanted some snowballs and made them chase Quirrell everywhere."

Lin Xia thought thoughtfully, "Draco, do you think the twin seniors seem to like playing pranks too much?"

Draco said without thinking: "It's normal, little wizards like to do pranks."

"But that's only for little wizards. No one can stay as a child forever. They are already third-year seniors, and they still do pranks every day—"

Lin Xia's voice paused, and she discovered a fact, and said uncertainly: "It doesn't seem to happen every three days?"

"Um..." Draco thought carefully, "Should I say every day? There are news about their pranks every day."

Lin Xia shook his head, said "unreasonable" and ignored it, turning his head to look elsewhere.

She is controlling her five senses.

Before it was visual amplification, now it's smell.

When she focused on her sense of smell, Lin Xia smelled all the smells in this classroom.

An indescribable feeling of nausea came over her, and she immediately paused her enhanced sense of smell.

How to describe this feeling?
The fragrance is very fragrant, the smell is very smelly, the strange fragrance and the strange smell are mixed together, forming a very special, pungent and fascinating smell.

It was as if a large mass of stuff had been forced into the nose, without any purification or filtration, and it was exposed to smells it shouldn't be able to bear.

Lin Xia adjusted briefly and switched to enhancing his hearing.

At first it was just a change in volume, but she soon realized it was just one way to enhance her hearing.

In addition to amplifying or reducing the volume, hearing can also be refined in other directions.

So she began to trace more detailed things, such as listening to some sounds that ordinary people could not hear.

Lin Xia thought about the knowledge from her previous life and felt that the enhanced sense of hearing might lead to the development of hearing ultrasonic or infrasound waves.

Her mind was completely immersed in the changes in her auditory senses, and she began to hear the whispers of some little wizards.

"Professor Flitwick has been occupied by Hermione again. She is so annoying. Can you please return the professor to us?"

"I wanted to ask the professor some questions, but when I walked over, I found that I couldn't understand what they were talking about. My questions seemed too simple. This made me a little frustrated and I didn't dare to ask."

Lin Xia thought for a while, then closed her eyes. Without visual distraction, she could be more immersed in hearing.

Suddenly, she heard a slight rubbing sound.

This friction sound is completely different from the friction between shoes against the floor and clothing. It is continuous and seems to be rubbing uninterruptedly on the rough surface.

Boom, boom, boom...

She also heard a very subtle heartbeat, beating much slower than a human's.

Lin Xia opened her eyes suddenly and looked up at the ceiling of the Charms class. The heartbeat just now was definitely not a human heartbeat.

"Lin Xia, what are you waiting for? It's time to eat!" Draco stood up and left. When he saw her staying where he was, he came back to call her.

Lin Xia came to her senses and left the classroom.
