0057 Petrochemical Incident (2)
This pool is an indoor fountain pool, which is not large in area, only about seven or eight square meters.
In the center of the pool is the outlet of a human-shaped statue, and the water flow is connected to the living water outside, so the water in the pool is very clear.
At this time, there was a human-shaped stone sculpture beside the pool. The stone sculpture looked like a girl wearing the uniform of a wizard robe of a Hogwarts student. She bent down and stretched out her hands to pick up the clear water in the pool. The look of horror on her face was lifelike, as if she had seen something terrible in the pool.
August, who had an extraordinary memory after coming to the scene, recognized the girl at a glance as a third-year student at Lavenclaw College. He had seen her in the intermediate potion class.
Soon, some of the students around her recognized her identity one after another. When everyone saw that she was petrified here, many people showed surprise and panic.
Professor McGonagall first made a sound to make everyone quiet and not panic, and then asked the student who first discovered the girl's stone statue.
But what disappointed Professor McGonagall was that she was unable to get any useful information from the student.
After the student found the stone statue, he immediately called everyone, and the information he had was what everyone saw in front of him.
Not long after, the other Hogwarts professors also arrived at the scene.
Dumbledore, as the principal, dispersed the students and asked all the students to return to the dormitory immediately after using dinner. August had to go to the lobby with Erin and Eve to have a meal first.
When they arrived at the restaurant, news that the students were petrified had spread in the school, and all the students were discussing this matter.
When August and the other two sat down to start their meal, Irene asked him with a worried look: "August, do you have a solution to petrochemicals here?"
August was about to answer, but Eve beside Elin smiled proudly: "This is simple. Just use the juice of the roots of Mandela grass to make the Mandela grass resurrection potion to easily remove the petrochemical!"
I have to say that after Eve focused on studying potions and alchemy, she still made some achievements in this area, and she immediately explained the most effective way to remove petrochemicals.
Although the name of "Mandela Resurrection Potion" contains the word "resurrection", this potion is not a resurrection from the dead, but is used to relieve various curses and deformation techniques to cause changes in biological morphology. The morphological change of "petification" is also included in the effective range of this potion.
Hearing Eve's words, Elean's face was much less worried: "That's good, it seems that the petrified student will be able to return to normal soon."
Eve nodded, "Of course, I know that Professor Sprout has a lot of Mandela grass in his greenhouse!"
Speaking of this, Eve suddenly showed a somewhat disgusting expression on her face, as if she had thought of something unpleasant.
It turned out that Eve had been interested in Mandelagrass before and had visited Professor Sprout's greenhouse to see Mandelagrass.
From the surface, Mandelagrass seems to be a very ordinary plant, but when Professor Sprout pulled the Mandelagra from the soil in front of Eve, the appearance of Mandelagra and the harsh twitching sounds made Eve unforgettable for his life.
The rhizome of Mandela grass looks like an ugly baby with wrinkles all over the body. Once its rhizome is pulled out of the soil, the ugly baby will make extremely harsh crying. For some people with less mental power, it is normal for them to be stunned by this sound on the spot.
That is, after seeing the rhizomes of Mandela, Eve had a deep impression of this plant. Of course, most of her impressions were bad.
August, who was standing beside him, shook his head and said, "It's not that simple. The juice of the roots of the Mandela grass must be used after the Mandela grass is mature. Now its juice is fatal to humans and cannot be used to refine resurrection potions at all."
Hearing August's addition, Irene's face reappeared again, while Eve seemed to remember something, and then exclaimed: "Isn't that bad? I remember the book said that the time when the Mandela grass matured was in July, so wouldn't it mean that there were still three months to use it!"
August pushed the bridge of his nose and said, "It seems only a matter of time before he saves this petrified girl, but in fact the impact of this incident is very great for Hogwarts."
As a well-known magic school, Hogwarts also has the responsibility to protect students while recruiting students.
Now a student is petrified so unclearly. If the reason cannot be found and the murderer is found, then this will not only be a huge blow to Hogwarts' reputation, but also pose countless hidden dangers.
How did Hogwarts explain to the petrified girl and her family? How did Hogwarts explain to the Ministry of Magic? How did Hogwarts ensure that such an incident will not happen again? What if the petrified incident occurs again or even the stone statue of a lithochemical officer is damaged, causing the cadet to die or be disabled?
Therefore, for Hogwarts, it is not only urgent to save this petrified girl, but more importantly, it is to find the murderer as soon as possible!
After hearing August's detailed analysis, the worries on Eileen and Eve's faces became even stronger.
The danger is now hidden in the school, and other victims may appear at any time.
"If the school cannot find the murderer as soon as possible, I think the Ministry of Magic will definitely intervene and it is very likely that Hogwarts will be temporarily closed," August continued.
