A Certain Hogwarts Magician Professor

"Her name is Twinkle? Who is her master? What happened to you?"

Hot tears flowed from Dobby's big eyes, and he said tremblingly, "Her name is Winky, we've known each other for a long time, when I was part of the Malfoy family..." He shuddered.

"Go on, Dobby."

"Her master is Mr. Crouch, Mr. Barty Crouch—" Dobby said, and Felix frowned. Dobby added: "I went to Mr. Crouch's house, it was dark, but Dobby had been there before and knew the way... Dobby found Winky, Winky told Dobby to leave quickly, Dobby didn't know why , our voice woke the owner of the house."

"You mean Barty Crouch?"

"Dobby isn't sure!" said the house-elf, trembling. "It was so dark that there weren't even magic lights there! They were so outdated!"

Felix was almost amused, but fortunately Dobby got to the point.

"I heard a grim voice saying: Something broke in, it's a dirty house-elf, kill them." Dobby's eyes widened: "Dobby has never heard such a grim voice , never heard of it! But the next second, Mr. Crouch came out and he cursed us, not just me, but Winky!"

"Recite a curse?"

"No, not... the dazzling green light, full of the breath of death, that spell!"

"Sorrow?" Dobby kept nodding with his eyes closed, and Felix's eyebrows twitched violently.

"And after that? You escaped?"

"Then...the spell missed, Dobby blocked a powerful cutting spell with the defense item given by Mr. Hepp, and then Dobby ran away with Winky, but Winky didn't want to go, she still wanted to talk to Mr. Crouch Please... Dobby can't leave her alone! Dobby, Dobby knocked her out."

Dobby's slender chest heaved and said breathlessly. Trembling, he pulled out a dark yellow sock from his pocket, and poured out a dull amulet from the sock. Its surface was cracked every inch and it was obviously unusable.

Felixus crouched down, stroking the cobweb-like cracks on the amulet, and then pointed at the unconscious house elf.

"Recover quickly."

Twinkle's slender neck moved, she blinked her eyelids vigorously, opened her big brown eyes, and sat up tremblingly. She looked around with a bit of daze, her mind still not sober. When she saw Dobby and Felix squatting beside her, her eyes suddenly widened and she let out a loud scream——

"Winky has to go back! Winky has to get out of here!"

Her body suddenly became illusory. Felix raised his finger slightly, and the elf kept flashing like a bad signal, but he couldn't get out of this area.

Dobby looked at Felix in awe, and he said sharply, "Winky, we're safe."

"No, Winky is going back, back to the master!" She struggled desperately.

Dobby said loudly, "You don't have a master anymore, he wants to kill you, think about it!"

Shiny's slender body froze, and his round nose, which seemed to be flattened, took a sharp breath, and said stubbornly: "No, it's not—"

"The master needs to be taken care of, he is terribly ill!" she cried.

Dobby shouted in a louder voice than she was: "He didn't see signs of sickness when he attacked us!"

"Because the master wants to take care of Master Barty, the master is very ill, and he feels that he has done something wrong and wronged his son..." Winky trembled, and tears rolled down her face, "Oh, Winky shouldn't have said that, Twinkle is such a bad elf!"

She screamed and rolled in the dirt, startling several students who came out of the auditorium in the distance.

"Master?" Felix whispered, thoughtfully, "Barty Crouch II? Wasn't he in Azkaban, and as far as I know he's been dead for years..."

"Winky!" He stopped the elf who punished him, and said in an encouraging voice: "Listen to me, your master is in trouble, and only you can help him," he added, "and your babe. Master Ti, but I need to know the truth."

Twinkle stared at Felix blankly, and kept mumbling: "Master Batty is innocent, he was imprisoned in Azkaban by his master, but he couldn't forgive himself, so he chose to atone for his sins. …”

Her state is really scary, like a soulless body, repeating these words constantly.

When he spoke, a strange light flashed in his twinkling pupils.

"What's wrong with Winky?" Dobby rubbed his fingers uneasily. "Mr. Hepp, Dobby did hear a cold voice, but didn't see anyone else..."

"She's under a spell...not like an Imperius, I guess Confusion," Felix said.

Dobby was taken aback. "Confusion Charm? Twinkle Confused?"

Felix put his wand against Shining's chest and said softly, "The spell is removed." He switched his perspective, and in the gray and white screen, the little elf transpired with wisps of red light.

He put away his wand, and Dobby stared at Winky, asking uneasily, "Magic lifted? How's Winky?"

Felix breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's see."

Winky blinked as if she had just woken up, then let out a desperate cry.

"Master Barty, you bad boy!"

Felix had to wrap his arms around Winky's shoulders, as she kept shaking her head, fluttering her legs, and screaming in grief. His eyes lit up with silver light, and he said in a deep voice, "Blink, do you have anything to say?"

Twinkle's eyes stared like giant bells, and tears flowed like brooks, but she wouldn't say anything.

As a last resort, Felix let go of her.

He ordered, "Dobby, take Wink to rest, she's been very stimulated tonight." He pointed at Wink, her expression softened quickly, and she fell asleep quickly, only under her eyelids beating uneasily.

Felix condensed complex magic symbols in the air and printed them on Winky's body. "Mr. Hepp?"

"She can't leave for the time being. I blocked her ability to use magic. Dobby, it's hard for you to take care of her for a while. If you have any requirements, try to satisfy her."

"Yes, Mr. Hepp," Dobby replied. He carried Winky on his back and prepared to leave, with a hesitant expression on his face: "What about you, sir? Do you need Dobby to ask Winky about Mr. Barty Crouch's secret?"

"No need," Felix said, "I'll ask myself..." He said in a very complicated tone: "I just saw a very interesting picture."

"What did you see?"

"A baby," Felix said admiringly.
