Above Sherlock's head, the portrait of a thin old man muttered a few words in dissatisfaction, then disappeared into the principal's room.

Ginny came quickly, she walked into the principal's room with a blank face, and saw the four professors and Malfoy standing inside, obviously very nervous.

"Don't be too nervous, Miss Weasley, we just want to ask you something," Dumbledore said softly.

His voice was very kind, and the expression on his face was also very soft, comforting a little Ginny who was frightened like a frightened rabbit.

"Have you been exposed to anything strange since coming to Hogwarts?"

Dumbledore's blue eyes looked at Ginny's, and Sherlock, who was standing aside watching, wondered maliciously in his heart whether Old Deng Tau would, at this time, treat a young man who completely trusted him. The girl secretly uses Dementor.

Hearing Dumbledore's question, Ginny's head shook like a rattle, she said cautiously.

"Without a professor, I haven't come across anything weird."

Dumbledore's brows furrowed again, and Malfoy's reaction was far more violent.

"You are lying!"

Ginny was startled by his sudden shout, and she blushed in defense.

"I don't......"

Dumbledore nodded gently to Ginny.

"I believe you, Miss Weasley, can you wait at the door of the office? Don't worry, it won't take too long, I'll be looking for you soon."

Hearing Dumbledore's words, Ginny's mood was obviously more stable, she nodded quickly, and trotted out of the headmaster's office.

After Ginny left, Dumbledore looked at Malfoy calmly.

"She didn't lie about this child, she really didn't know anything, and there were no other signs of contamination with other magical items on her body."

Malfoy was obviously unacceptable for this result, he kept talking.

"No way, she can't be without problems..."

Dumbledore stared at him like this, and after a few seconds of silence, he suddenly asked coldly.

"What should be wrong with her?"

"She should..."

Malfoy suddenly shut up, his face was gloomy, his eyes were looking at Dumbledore like a pool of stagnant water.

"What do you mean," he said nonchalantly, "I told you there might be something wrong with that little girl, it's just my guess. Your question is very similar to these things that happened in Hogwarts, and I'm about the same."

Dumbledore didn't speak, but Professor McGonagall, who had been listening, couldn't help it at this time.

"If it's not about you, how do you know the problem is with Weasley!"

"I said that was my guess!" His words were cold, in stark contrast to the way he prayed to Dumbledore just now.

"I will try my best to help keep things under wraps at Hogwarts, and I hope you can save my son as soon as possible."

He looked at Dumbledore, and Dumbledore was looking at him.

"Some mandrakes are being cultivated in the school," Dumbledore said calmly. "When this batch of herbs matures, those students who were attacked will return to normal."

"In that case, I have to leave first. Narcissa is still waiting for my news."

Malfoy turned and walked out of the headmaster's room. Dumbledore didn't mean to stop him, so he just let him go.

After he walked out the door, Professor McGonagall couldn't hold it anymore and asked Dumbledore.

"You knew from the start that the attack had something to do with Malfoy?"

Dumbledore did not shy away from her question.

"It was just my guess at the beginning, after all, there are only a few who are entitled to have something related to that person,

But now I'm sure that the source of this is Lucius. "

Professor McGonagall asked in confusion.

"Then why didn't you force him to tell everything he did? His son was also attacked. In order to save his own son, he should have..."

Dumbledore interrupted her by shaking his head.

"You still don't know these people well enough, Minerva."

"He won't say it. If he does, then the consequence is that he will hand over his control to us. If something goes wrong, then his power, his wealth and his status will all be lost. Even if his The son has been rescued, so what is left of the Malfoy family?"

"Lucius does value his family as much as they value his own blood. But they also know that once they lose what he holds in his hands, what they valued will also be threatened."

"Besides, he himself knows that things haven't reached that stage yet, and giving everything out will not help him save his son."

Dumbledore looked absently in the direction of the entrance to the office, as if he was thinking about something.

"And that's really the only information he can provide. At first, the target he was going to interfere with was actually Miss Weasley, but for some unknown reason, there was an accident in the middle. Miss Weasley was not the one who made it all. "

While Dumbledore was thinking, Sherlock was also thinking.

He was thinking that in the plot of the original book, the person who opened the secret room might be Ginny.

But don't know what went wrong, causing something to go wrong in the middle.

What is this problem?

"Sherlock, can you help me call in Miss Weasley who was waiting outside the door? I think she should be in a hurry too."

After hearing Dumbledore's instructions, Sherlock walked out of the headmaster's office and called in Ginny, who was waiting anxiously outside the door.

Dumbledore was always willing to give more patience when dealing with students.

"Would you like a snack? Miss Weasley."

Ginny obviously doesn't want to eat much now, and she shakes her head.

"I just had dinner, Professor."

"I know it's not good to disturb your rest at this time." Dumbledore clasped his hands. "However, I still have some small questions that I want to ask you about."

"When was the last time you saw Malfoy's dad?"

After Malfoy left, Ginny's mood relaxed a lot. Of the professors in the headmaster's room, except for Snape, who was a little afraid, the other three she felt very kind.

Hearing Dumbledore's question, the little girl thought for a moment.

"Professor in August, when my parents were taking our family to Diagon Alley to buy things for the beginning of the school year. At the Licent Bookstore, we met Malfoy and his father, and then... .."

Having said that, she turned to look at Sherlock.

"My dad got into a fight with Mr Malfoy, they got into a fight, and Professor Forrest was there at the time."
