Snape, who had lost his mood, could only say coldly: "Don't study spells about ghosts. You can handle other things on your own."
Although Snape was dissatisfied with Dumbledore, he still subconsciously carried out his task.
In fact, it is not surprising that he has this habit. The main reason is that Dumbledore did him a favor, even though he had done something excessive to him in the past.
Ariana immediately shook her head and said, "I told you, if you want to stop me, you can do it with your own ability. Anyway, I will definitely do what I want to do."
Seeing the other party glaring at her and wanting to lecture her, Ariana quickly waved her hand and talked about something else.
"By the way, Professor, can you explain the Cruciatus Curse and the Killing Curse to me?"
After much thought, she concluded that the only place she could get the explanation for these two spells was from Snape.
Snape looked at her speechlessly and snorted coldly: "Do you think I will give it to you?"
Since Ariana had spoken, she was naturally confident that she could get the spell analysis from the other party.
Anyway, this is not the first time she has threatened people. Once the bottom line is broken, it is no longer a warning line.
"Then I'll ask my boyfriend's family for it as my future betrothal gift. I'm not short of money anyway, so they shouldn't refuse." She looked at the other person calmly, with an attitude of "you decide."
Ariana did not forget that neither Dumbledore nor Snape wanted her to have too close contact with pure-blood families.
When Dumbledore lamented that it was fine for her to be a Gryffindor, besides being a veiled warning, he also meant that he did not want another powerful wizard representative from the aristocratic family.
Snape also saw Ariana's threat. He growled viciously, "You threaten anyone you catch now, don't you?"
Dumbledore threatened, Professor McGonagall threatened, and even Quirrell, who was related to the mysterious man, was not spared. Now it's his turn, right?
"Professor, Dumbledore's threat to my life is infuriating enough, and now there's a mysterious man who's skilled in the Killing Curse. I just want to protect myself." Ariana explained her helplessness.
Professor Quirrell dared to get involved with the mysterious man, so it's hard to guarantee that he wouldn't learn the mysterious man's way of doing things.
What if someone gets angry and uses a killing curse on her? She must find a way to defend herself.
Snape complained speechlessly about the little thorn: "You feel like everyone in the wizarding world wants to kill you."
Is this kid suffering from paranoia? As a potion master, Snape is aware of this disease.
Ariana retorted, "Because everyone in the wizarding world has a wand and can use lethal spells at the slightest disagreement. It's really too dangerous."
Not only does everyone possess lethal weapons, but the quality of the entire magical community is also not high.
The most powerful wizard is extremely partial and shamelessly conducts surveillance, and there is also a murderous Dark Lord hiding around the school.
Looking at Ariana who refused to give in, Snape hesitated for a while, but finally made up his mind.
"I'll give it to you in three days. Don't have anything to do with Lucius. Your relationship with Draco ends with him." Snape really didn't want this little thorn to have too close contact with Lucius.
Thinking about how she and Draco were always together, it would be difficult to separate them. After the matter of the mysterious man was settled, they could do whatever they wanted.
After being satisfied, Ariana's mood suddenly improved a lot. Thinking of her previous doubts, she asked Snape another question.
"Professor, Professor Quirrell took one look at Draco and easily gave up inviting me to his office. Is he so sure that the Malfoy family will follow him after his return? What's his reason?"
Once this matter is resolved, the Draco family can say goodbye to the mysterious man completely.
Snape's face darkened, and he immediately drove the man away, saying, "Get out."
He no longer wanted this brat to contact Lucius, and there was no way he would tell this little troublemaker about the Dark Mark.
Moreover, Snape believed that Lucius would not tell anyone, otherwise he would admit that he was a Death Eater.
Ariana didn't know how confidential this matter was, so she said in a pretentious tone, "If you don't tell me, then I can only ask my boyfriend to ask his father."
Snape sneered and said, "I have kindly reminded you, whether you want to listen or not, don't blame others when you die."
"He's already dead, how can you blame others?" Ariana frowned and looked at him.
It seems that this matter cannot be easily found out. Even if Draco is much tougher now, it is probably impossible to ask his father about it.
Draco knew his father and godfather better than Ariana did. After hearing about the situation in the office, he gave the same guess as Ariana.
"My godfather is even willing to give you the explanations for the Cruciatus Curse and the Killing Curse, but he's unwilling to tell me what evidence the You-Know-Who has on my father. My father may not tell me."
Draco hadn't been worried before, thinking it was no big deal, but it seems things aren't that simple.
Ariana couldn't bear to see her good friend frowning, so she patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, whether it's Dumbledore or the You-Know-Who, in the end, it all comes down to strength. As long as we face them, I have the strength to fight, and they won't dare to do anything to your family."
After all, she and Draco are officially boyfriend and girlfriend, so these two black and white devils always have to take her attitude into consideration and will not easily touch the Malfoy family.
But it would be better to wait until they graduate and the Malfoy family immigrates to the United States. After all, by then she will be gone and people will forget her.
Draco shook his head and said, "I'm not too worried about my family. Nothing happened last time. Whether it's the headmaster or the mysterious man, they shouldn't do anything to my family."
Chapter 129 Let’s Capture One for Experimentation
Dumbledore is a man with a bottom line. As long as the Malfoy family does not go too far, he should not care too much in order to maintain the stability of the family.
As for the mysterious man, he needs the status and money of the Malfoy family, and will not easily overthrow the Malfoy family.
Draco looked at Ariana seriously and said, "I'm worried about you. You haven't grown up yet, but everyone knows that you will be very powerful in the future. I'm afraid that you will be hurt when you choose your camp."
If both the mysterious figure and Dumbledore force her to make a choice, given Ariana's personality, she doesn't like either side and probably won't choose either. Wouldn't that offend both sides?
Sure enough, Ariana's words confirmed his thoughts.
"I'm not optimistic about either side. I think as long as I'm strong enough and stand firm in the middle, Dumbledore and the You-Know-Who will be reluctant to offend me because they're afraid of pushing me to the other side's camp." Ultimately, it all comes down to who has the bigger fist.
If the mysterious man returns later and Dumbledore sticks to his bottom line, she will have fully grown up by then, and it would not be a bad idea to fight one against two people. In any case, she will never be controlled by others.
The situation now is very clear, which is to improve strength as soon as possible. Since she has not yet obtained Snape's Killing Curse and Cruciatus Curse, Ariana plans to study the Imperius Curse in her hand first.
In the next few days, she used the analysis of the Imperius Curse to disassemble the energy data of the soul. Through verification, Ariana guessed that the soul was the embodiment of the spirit, and the spirit was a higher-level manifestation of the brain's neural activity.
The function of the Imperius Curse is to interfere with the brain's neural activities through external forces, thereby controlling consciousness and imprisoning the soul.
Ariana intends to borrow the concept of entanglement in quantum mechanics, and use quantum mechanisms to entangle the neurons in the brain with the external magic energy field when they are active, so as to achieve the purpose of imprisoning ghosts.
After listing all the formulas, she found that she still lacked the energy data of the ghost. It was not as simple as she had thought before. She directly used detection magic to verify the operation program of the spell.
Draco noticed that Ariana hadn't smiled for several days, so he asked, "Why are you frowning so hard? Have you encountered any problems?"
It's really rare to see Ariana like this.
I've been watching her write and draw these past few days. Before, she would just calculate in her head. I guess she was too upset and didn't want to use her brain.
Ariana glanced at the Bloody Baron and said awkwardly, "Whether it's a detection spell or a confinement spell, they can't avoid the ghost's energy field data."
Of course she knew how to solve the problem, even though she had said before that she would kill all these ghosts.
But now the person has not committed the crime in his hands. Capturing him and doing magic research on him is really crossing the bottom line as a human being.
Draco had no such bottom line. He immediately suggested: "Then why don't we catch one and experiment on it?"
In his opinion, these ghosts were already dead and not human at all. They were no different from the animals that Ariana had experimented on.
Ariana said hesitantly, "This spell was developed based on the Imperius Curse. It's hard to say whether it can directly capture ghosts."
Although the spell she designed used some of the Imperius Curse's procedures, it was not the Imperius Curse after all. Moreover, it was only a theory now, and she really had no confidence in it.
Draco said without any psychological burden: "Then use the Imperius Curse to imprison him. I understand. If you don't want to use this spell yourself, then I will use it."
He was eager to try, completely forgetting that he couldn't even use ordinary black magic, let alone the three unforgivable curses.
Ariana wanted to remind him of this, but saying it out loud might hit him again. She had just managed to appease him for a few days, so she swallowed the words back into her stomach.
"What's the difference between you using it and me using it? If anything happens to the ghosts in the school, Dumbledore will definitely put the blame on me." Ariana could only put the blame on herself.
Draco didn't notice the change in Ariana's expression, so he made another suggestion.
"Then propose a deal. What do they need? We will find a way to satisfy it and get them to cooperate with you in the experiment. After all, it's just testing and detention, and it won't hurt them." This is the way the Malfoy family thinks. Everything has a price.
Ariana thought about the ghosts of Hogwarts, and suddenly thought of Draco's reaction to being peeped at while taking a bath last time, so she played a joke on him.
"The only ghost I know of with needs is Myrtle in the bathroom on the second floor. She likes to watch boys take a bath. Are you planning to sacrifice yourself?" She looked at her good friend, trying to suppress a smile.
Draco hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Dumbledore said she likes mature men. I'm not mature enough to meet her standards for a deal. I'm talking about the Bloody Baron. I know he's been wanting to talk to Ms. Grey from Ravenclaw."
This deal may not be completed. After all, the Bloody Baron can ask other young wizards for help without paying any price, but Myrtle's will definitely succeed.
Ariana was just joking. She certainly couldn't let Draco make such a big sacrifice. When she heard Draco's suggestion, she immediately started thinking.
It is indeed more suitable to trade with the Bloody Baron. We are all Slytherins and it is easier to deal with each other.
In addition, this ghost is a man of few words and very cold-hearted, so he would definitely not report this to Dumbledore.
"That Ms. Grey is cold and aloof, and she hates Mr. Barrow very much. Can you convince her?" Ariana looked at her good friend in confusion.
Draco thought for a moment and refined the suggestion, "Of course not a direct conversation. We can help him pass on the message. Anyway, there's no guarantee that Ms. Grey will respond to him, right?"
He thought there was no problem, and if all else failed, he could just choose Myrtle.
After confirming, Ariana and Draco went to find the Bloody Baron and directly stated the terms of the deal.
The Bloody Baron's expression was still grim, but he agreed.
"Yes, as long as you can help me pass the message, I will cooperate with your experiment."
"Let's go and pass the message immediately." Draco said excitedly.
Luckily, he didn't have to go look for Myrtle, as he really didn't want to be seen bathing.
After getting the message from the Bloody Baron, Ariana stopped the anxious Draco because she had something else she wanted to ask Ms. Grey, whom she heard was very knowledgeable.
"Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle. First, go find Senior Farley and ask her what Ms. Grey's taboos are. I also have some questions about the principles of spells that I want to ask her." Ariana explained.
Senior Farley is easy to find. Apart from classes, she basically stays in the lounge to deal with unexpected events that may occur in the college and strive to reduce the number of points deducted from Slytherin as much as possible.
Hearing Ariana's question, Farley looked at Draco with a half-smile.
"You want to deal with the Grey ladies? Then it's best to let Malfoy go, and act very gently. Colin shouldn't go."
Chapter 130 Don’t sell your body
Draco was a bit phobic about female ghosts now, and he immediately got furious when he heard that.
"Could this Ms. Grey like to peek at boys taking a bath like Myrtle?" He looked at Senior Farley in horror.
Farley burst out laughing when he heard that, and after a while he explained why.
"I didn't expect that after just over a month of school, you'd already discovered that Myrtle on the second floor likes to peek at boys taking baths. Malfoy, don't worry too much. She won't go to the public bathroom because she only likes to peek at handsome boys. Her crimes usually take place in the prefect's bathroom."
When you go to a public restroom, you have to look at everyone, and some of the boys are really ugly.
Ariana didn't care about this kind of gossip. She asked in confusion, "Then why did Senior Farley suggest that Draco go to Ms. Grey on his own, and specifically said that I couldn't go?"
You don't peek at boys taking a shower, but you like gentle and good-looking boys? But Draco is a popular figure in the school, and there is no reason for Ms. Grey not to know that he has nothing to do with gentleness.
Farley explained: "Ms. Grey likes to talk to good-looking and gentle boys. As for girls, it's okay for others, but it might not be so good for you."
"Why?" Ariana was puzzled.
Why is she different from other girls? Does the ghost treat her differently?
Farley studied Ariana for a second before answering, "She's not really into overly clever girls, and your intelligence is well known around Hogwarts."
Not only Ariana, but also the particularly smart girls in Ravenclaw are not liked by her.
But she was only a little cold, maybe because she thought I wasn't smart enough, but Ariana's intelligence was unquestionable.
"But Draco has nothing to do with gentleness, and Ms. Grey must know that. Will this work?" Ariana remembered that Senior Farley had just told Draco to pretend to be gentle.
Farley smiled and said, "She likes talking to gentle boys, even if she's pretending. Malfoy is very good-looking, so it's no problem for her to pretend."
If you are ugly, you won't get even a glance from the other person even if you pretend.
After listening to Senior Farley's explanation, Ariana could only look at Draco.
"Boyfriend, it seems you have to fulfill your responsibilities. Before, you helped me with things I didn't want to say or do. Now, you have to help me with things I can't do."
Aliana thought that if it was just a conversation, there should be nothing wrong.
Draco didn't refuse, but he remembered that Ariana still wanted to ask Ms. Grey a lot of questions.
"I'm afraid I didn't ask clearly." He looked at his best friend embarrassedly.
This question doesn't bother Ariana.
"I'll give you a list of questions. It's OK if you can figure out the answers to them. Even if you miss any, it doesn't matter. In the end, it still has to be verified by Mr. Barrow."
If you are unclear, you can find the answer from the Bloody Baron.
Draco practiced a gentle expression in front of the mirror conjured by Ariana for half an hour before going to the Ravenclaw tower. He came back an hour later.
