”Looking for evidence…” The dubious look on his face said he thought otherwise but at the moment he wasn’t about to sit and argue with the fourth year. The investigations unit would probably already be in a huff when they got here over the scene being contaminated. Mother of Merlin, he should have just stayed in bed. ”And did you find anything of note while you were down there Ms. Adams?” Even if he didn’t believe her tale he felt compelled to ask. What if she found something? That would be important for the Guard to know. He waited for her replay and once given he let out a soft sigh before running a hand through his hair. ”I want you to grab someone and go fetch the Headmaster, he will need to know.” He gave her a pointed glare if she seemed hesitant or about to refuse.
Once she was gone the Professor quickly thought of the happiest memory he could, which was fairly easy since it happened not all that long ago, and summoned his patronus. ”Expecto Patronum!” A silvery mist was expelled from his wands tip and in a matter of moments a large panther stood before him. A quick flick of the wrist and it was off to deliver a message to one of the Imperium Guards. Hopefully it wouldn’t take too long for someone more qualified to deal with this sort of situation to arrive.
”PROFESSOR! QUICK!”
That had sounded like McDowell… What on earth? Quickly he made his way out of the dorm and out into the hall before getting hung up with the unfortunate students who were sharing the dorm the murder happened in. Bloody hell. He placed a hand on the nearest girls shoulder and knelt down in front of her. ”You need to take the rest of your friends here and go stay in one of your friends dorms ok?” He got a shaky nod in response and once he was sure they were moving he quickly hurried to the common room just in time to see the McDowell and a few other Hufflepuffs disappear through the entrance. Damn it all to hell. He let his eyes scan the common room but didn’t find anything out of place. What the hell was going on?
