Grindelwald's behavior was somewhat punitive.
According to common sense, Percy, who was already in such miserable condition, should have been sent to the school hospital for timely treatment, instead of being the focus of people's attention as a demonstration example.
This is probably the difference between Grindelwald and Dumbledore. In most cases, Dumbledore will choose to shoulder everything by himself. Even after death, his arrangements will lead the tool man step by step to complete what he wants. To accomplish something, to completely accomplish the previous goal.
Grindelwald is different. He is a true leader. In addition to having the same powerful strength and mind as Dumbledore, he is also better at using all available powers around him. He understands better than Dumbledore that a person's Power is limited. Even if he is so powerful that he has few enemies, he still focuses on the strength of the collective.
He could directly suppress today's matter, and then take the lead himself and lead the professors to solve such troubles, but what was the point of doing so?
Since the little wizards have seen this incident and become participants in it, rather than letting them whisper about it in private, it is better to let them formally participate in it. At least in this case, through this opportunity, they can also Let them learn some useful knowledge, and at the same time dispel some of their excessive curiosity.
This group of naughty children, who are as energetic as courting baboons, have an astonishing ability to commit suicide. If they are suppressed, the threshold of the fourth floor will be broken, and that is the worst thing.
"Ravenclaw students in their fourth year and above are in line."
After using the levitating spell to levitate Percy in mid-air, Grindelwald called out the names in a calm voice.
"As a member of the Tactical Intelligence Academy, I believe that you have all studied the professional courses of your academy seriously. Ravenclaw is known as a person who values both wisdom and knowledge. I hope you will not disappoint me today."
"Led by the prefects of each grade, the fourth-grade students watched and studied carefully, and the fifth-grade students and above began to arrange the sand table deduction and build a virtual battlefield restoration map."
"Legilimency was not used in the construction of this virtual battlefield. This method has great limitations and the possibility of being deceived. Inferences are made based on existing clues, and then the facts on the scene are restored."
Grindelwald glanced at the Ravenclaw students who were standing out, and after seeing their somewhat confused looks, he sighed helplessly.
"Hogwarts can't keep up with the times, alas..."
"I used to be a very prejudiced person. I used to think wizards were superior beings. I looked down on Muggles. I thought they should be ruled by higher-level wizards."
"It was Albus, it was your principal who warned me back then and stopped my crazy actions."
"And what he said is not wrong. Time has proven this truth. Muggles are indeed not what I thought. They are human beings like us. Except that they do not have magic power, they have the same intelligence as us."
"Even because of the huge base number, there are far more wise men with real wisdom among them than wizards."
"Before I came to Hogwarts, I thought Albus would bring those crystallizations of wisdom here. After all, his attitude towards Muggles was a thousand times better than mine. He would read Muggle books and go Get nourishment.”
"I didn't expect that after decades, I would finally come to Hogwarts..."
Grindelwald shook his head, "Now is no longer the ignorant era hundreds of years ago, and Hogwarts, which upholds the so-called tradition, will one day be crushed to pieces by the wheels of history."
"Come to Durmstrang!"
Grindelwald smiled and said, "There, you will witness the magic of the new era and the magic education of the new era."
His words made many professors twitch their brows. This fair and honest poaching was too straightforward, but because his name was Gellert Grindelwald, the professors couldn't be angry with him.
All the professors at Hogwarts combined wouldn't be able to defeat him alone. In the magic world where the power of elite individuals is paramount, miracles can happen when a single person can defeat thousands of armies.
"Since you haven't learned anything in this area, let me take the lead in restoring the scene this time. First, we need to set up the venue to prepare for the subsequent profiling."
Grindelwald raised his Browning M1935, and the black phoenix flew out of the muzzle, then turned into smoke with a bang, and a translucent black room appeared in the auditorium, a room that was almost shattered. It was full of rubble, and blood and pieces of flesh were spread all over the floor.
At least half of the little wizards were so frightened that they covered their mouths and even jumped three feet in the air trying to get away from the ground. The hourglass hanging on the wall of the auditorium told people that the impact of this tragic scene was really a lot. People were frightened and cried.
The points of the four houses have all been deducted to negative numbers, especially the unlucky Gryffindor. The double deduction of points makes the number they owe particularly huge.
"This is the room at the end of the corridor on the fourth floor that serves as the scene of the crime. If you can still hold the wand, start building the magic projection of the person involved and the projection of the three-headed dog."
Although the pale-faced Ravenclaw students heard Grindelwald's words, and they had also studied this aspect in professional classes, at this moment, their minds were blank, and only a few of them moved, and The magic image built by just these few people will be greatly distorted, and their different ideas will interfere with each other.
"You are truly the worst class of students I have ever encountered, in Durmstrang!"
Grindelwald waved his hand irritably, "No one can live up to his expectations."
"We started the backward analysis from the scene. It is obvious that this room experienced a violent explosion. Professor Snape has told you that the item that caused the explosion was a high-purity Type IV high-energy explosive potion, which is C4."
"Now who can tell me where the initial explosion point is?"
Under Grindelwald's cold eyes, the little wizards who forced themselves to focus on this tragic scene moved, and they pointed to a pit that was not smeared with minced meat, which was the starting point of the explosion.
"Based on the conditions at the detonation point, start simulating the explosion and restore the scene. You can always do this, right?"
A Ravenclaw prefect nodded slightly, took a deep breath, then turned his head and whispered a few words to the people around him.
A dozen wizards raised their wands one after another, and white threads sprayed out from their muzzles. After a short while of calculation, a model simulating an explosive fireball was completed.
"Based on the depth of the detonation point and the traces on the four walls, the mass of C4 used in this explosion is about ten grams, which is approximately equal to the superposition of 2.5 powerful blasting spells. Based on the current clues, we can probably Got some useful information below."
Ravenclaw, who has gradually regained his senses, gradually sorted out his thoughts after overcoming the fear in his heart.
"First of all, we can rule out that the C4 detonated in this incident is a top-level version aimed at increasing the explosive power, but a special version that focuses on increasing magic penetration and is used to conquer high-resistant targets, such as the three-headed dog in front of us. .”
"Three-headed dogs were commonly used by ancient Egyptian wizards as treasure guardians. Their resistance to magic is quite high. Ordinary spells cannot cause effective damage to them. The attackers should have known about the existence of the three-headed dogs in advance. And the item was carried in a targeted manner.”
"Secondly, based on the damage at the scene, we can determine the correct position of the three-headed dog when it encountered the explosion. The three-headed dog that should have been inside the room was near the entrance when the explosion occurred. , judging from the damage to the walls here, the wall near the gate was smashed by the body of the three-headed dog, not simply due to the explosion."
"Based on the above speculation, the picture we can get is——"
As the Ravenclaw students continued to coordinate and correct, Lu Wei's projection appeared in the room. The three-headed dog standing on the inside of the room ran forward quickly, and then leaned sideways against the wall, using the side of its body to It was not that his head smashed into the thick wall. This strange behavior was based on speculation based on the damage at the scene. Although this is not common sense, it is a restoration of the events at that time.
The exploding fireball blasted away Lu Wei's side and pushed it out of the room. The flesh and organs turned into minced meat spread a carpet of flesh and blood away from the room. After that, Lu Wei's traces became very obvious. The dog left the room and galloped to the auditorium.
"As for Percy..."
A few Ravenclaw students shook their heads slightly, "We are currently unable to restore the situation when Percy was present. The explosion destroyed too many clues. I'm sorry, Professor Grindelwald, but we have disappointed you."
"It's okay. It seems that Ravenclaw still has a few people who can use their brains."
Grindelwald nodded slightly. Although he was still very immature, at least they were using their brains.
"It is not wrong that you focus on the three-headed dog that is the easiest to observe, but you are too concerned about observing clues in the scene. What we should pay more attention to is the clues provided by the person involved."
"That's the clue Percy Weasley gave us."
"First, we need to analyze his injuries, which is why I didn't let the professor completely heal him."
"There are currently two obvious types of injuries on Percy. The first type is the crushing damage caused by the C4 explosion. The source of the injury to his lower body is the explosion. We can clearly observe that the explosion point is lower than his body. It’s about the position of your feet.”
Grindelwald pointed at Percy, who looked like a rag doll. His feet had completely disappeared. You could still see the ankle of his left leg, but even half of his calf was missing from his right leg. As the height rose, the higher the The damage caused by the positional explosion is lower, and the dividing line is at the waistline where the belly button is. There is a clear row of tooth marks there, which almost bite him in two.
The difference between the upper and lower body separated by this tooth mark is very big. Compared with the tattered lower body, the body above the tooth mark remains almost intact, and even the clothes are not much damaged.
"At the moment of the explosion, the three-headed dog swallowed his upper body in one gulp. There were intermittent tooth marks on the injury. In other words, the dog bit him twice, with different force on the same part. Twice, the first time it just cracked a little bit of the ribs, and the second time it was almost a bite that nearly cut his body in two.”
"Based on the teeth marks and the condition of the injured part of the three-headed dog, it was determined that it used its middle head to bite Percy and tried to take him away from the center of the explosion when the explosion occurred. The shock wave and impact caused the canine teeth to bite. , causing a second injury."
"The three-headed dog's unusual sideways posture is because it knows that once its hind legs are blown off, it is impossible for him to get out of there, so he has no choice but to expose the softer sides. Similarly, this posture also helps protect the middle The head is protected from a certain degree of explosion impact.”
"Now that there are enough clues, let's restore all the scenes."
The ruins that were originally full of blood turned into a complete room in an instant. The three-headed dog Luwei was taking a nap in the middle of the house. As the door was pushed open by Percy, the three-headed dog opened its eyes and gave a warning sound. Grow.
But the visitor didn't care at all and walked straight forward. He took out a bottle containing a high-energy explosive potion. He stepped into Lu Wei's attack range, which was the origin of the explosion. Then he let go and let the bottle fall. .
The three-headed dog suddenly pounced out at this moment, biting Percy's upper body and crashing into the wall. The impact of the explosion shattered Percy's exposed body and also shattered the left side of the three-headed dog's waist and abdomen. After struggling to hold up its body, the three-headed dog of the rag doll began to run with all its strength and disappeared within the simulation area in an instant.
"But why...why did the three-headed dog react so promptly?"
"It's almost like someone told it what was going to happen next."
The student who immediately sensed something was wrong asked Grindelwald. The scene restoration just now seemed reasonable, but there were also things he couldn't understand.
"This requires you to ask Professor Snape what the formula for the high-energy explosive potion is."
"Is it a volcanic crystal?"
A seventh-year Ravenclaw, a member of Snape's elite class, raised his hand.
"Yes, but it has another name." Grindelwald nodded. At least in terms of basic knowledge, Hogwarts students have learned very solidly.
"Abyssal sulfur crystal."
The student who just spoke added, "No wonder the three-headed dogs are so sensitive. This is the smell they hate the most. Unlike those underground races that look similar to them, the three-headed dogs living on the surface do not have the reputation of hell. They are extremely hostile parties."
"Yes, that's why the three-headed dog sensed the crisis in an instant. Compared to us humans, animals are more capable of foreboding in some places."
"Even though this three-headed dog has never seen its old enemy, the three-headed hell dog, its bloodline records everything."
"But why?" Another student raised his hand, "Why would Percy go there with such a dangerous thing and be so stupid...suicide?"
"Of course because someone needed him to do it."
Grindelwald narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke in a calm tone.
"As for who that person is." A cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he looked at the students present, "This is the homework I assigned you."
"Go and check. Since someone has already provoked Hogwarts, let us see whether he is hiding deeper or we are digging deeper."
"Albus will not allow you to do such dangerous things, but I will. Only you can wash away the shame of being stepped on by your own actions."
Grindelwald dropped these last words and turned around slowly to leave.
