Hogwarts: The Book of Magic

Chapter 155 Harry Who Is About to Die

"Okay, let's spread out." Professor McGonagall said coldly with a straight face.

It's really irritating, the heir of Slytherin seems to be upset with Gryffindor, and has been targeting Gryffindor.

Naturally, Professor McGonagall, who is the dean of Gryffindor, has no good face.

"Relax, Minerva, at least we now know what is endangering little wizards in school." Dumbledore pushed up his half-moon glasses, "By the way, I haven't asked which gentleman it is yet." What about the signal flare that was released?"

"It's...it's me, Headmaster." Neville was on the verge of tears, "I know... I know it's not right to cast spells in the corridors, but..."

"Take it easy, kid. You did a good job this time, so I've decided to give ten points to Gryffindor."

Neville's eyes widened at Dumbledore's words.

"Okay, you two should go to the dormitory to rest for a while."

Professor McGonagall still had a stern face, but the slightly raised corners of her mouth showed that her mood at this time was not as bad as it appeared on the surface.

In fact, Professor McGonagall only felt that his heart was in a mess at the moment. Justin was petrified, so he should have been sad.But she saw a child who should have been cowardly become brave and strong, and she was sincerely happy for the child.

"It seems that the duel club needs to be postponed, Tom Roach." Professor McGonagall glanced at March apologetically.

"It's okay, I think I need to go back to the Ministry to check the information and see if there are any snakes that can cause petrification." March said, suddenly stopped.

"What's the matter, do you have any new discoveries?" Professor McGonagall asked curiously when he saw that March was hesitant to speak.

March raised his head, looked at Professor McGonagall, then at Dumbledore, and finally said, "I heard that Mr. Potter showed a talent for Parseltongue on the duel stage before?"

"Are you suspicious of Harry?" Professor McGonagall couldn't help shouting.

"Tom Roach, there is absolutely no way that Harry is the murderer." Dumbledore said from the side, "Actually, I probably know who it is."

"But this matter is a secret, don't worry, I have my own plan for all this."

"Albus, it's not that I don't believe you, but..."

"I know, please trust me."

Professor McGonagall was stunned for a long time, and finally nodded: "Okay."

After speaking, he left here with a livid face.Dumbledore watched the back of Professor McGonagall leaving, speechless for a long time.

After guessing that it might be Voldemort, he had the idea of ​​using this incident as Harry's experience.

"Professor, I'll go back to the ministry first." March said respectfully.

Dumbledore nodded.

In the evening, after Lean and Hermione came out of the library, they went back to their respective colleges.

Just as he opened the door to the Slytherin common room, Lien was stopped by Senior Gemma before he could step in.

"Sorry, Lean, Professor Snape ordered the prefect to count where the little wizards were when the petrification incident happened this afternoon."

"Library, Mrs. Pince can prove it for me."

During dinner, Lean learned what had happened.

Senior Sister Gemma wrote on the parchment in her hand for a while, then got out of her way, and after Rian entered, she blocked the door again and continued to stop the next little wizard from registering.

"I heard that in the afternoon, Longbottom said in front of everyone that a snake attacked Fenriely, and everyone is guessing right now."

Kesi saw Lean sitting down and spoke.

"So my guess is completely correct. Mr. Potter is manipulating the basilisk to kill people in the castle. But this is just my guess, not the truth. Don't spread it casually." Beaver also said in a low voice.

He didn't want what he said to be known to others until there was no definite evidence.Fate is always unpredictable, if he guessed right, it would be icing on the cake for him; if he guessed wrong, it would be spreading rumors, and it would be a blow to him as one of the leaders of the mutual aid society.

Kex nodded and made an "OK" gesture with his hand.Lean also patted Beaver on the shoulder, saying that he would not speak out.

Afterwards, Rion went straight to his bedroom.

At this time, the investigation was being carried out in the four colleges at the same time, and most of the young wizards could basically tell what they were doing at that time, and they could find witnesses.

But there are also many little wizards who can't tell, among which Gryffindor is the most.

"Tell me, what the hell did you do in the afternoon!" The Gryffindor prefect was a little mad, because in front of him stood a row of little wizards who couldn't tell where they were in the afternoon.

Don't think too much, he must have violated the school rules.

Predictably, the gems in the jar representing the Gryffindor score will drop a lot.

"Speak up, even if it violates the school rules, you have to say it, otherwise Professor McGonagall will come to ask you in person tomorrow." The prefect said a little discouraged.

"I... I went to the leftmost corridor on the third floor, and I stored a few Flierbar fireworks there. But I didn't think it was safe to put them there, so I wanted to get them back."

The prefect nodded expressionlessly, and looked at the next wizard.

"I went to the prefect's bathroom, I just want to see what it looks like in it, I will be a prefect in the future." The little wizard blushed.

The prefect patted him on the shoulder to express his encouragement, then looked at the next little wizard, and instantly felt a headache.

Fred Weasley, George Weasley.

"Okay, okay, where did you two go?"

"Dropped two dung bombs into Filch's office."

"The newest product from Zuko Joke Shop."

The two sang together and said in unison.

"I hope you two can come back alive tomorrow." The prefect wrote on the parchment and said sympathetically, then looked up to the next one.

The prefect was stunned, it was another Weasley.

Ron and Harry next to him blushed completely, and they really couldn't tell what they did this afternoon.

Harry wanted to get rid of the suspicion of his murderer, so he went to Myrtle to ask about the last time the Chamber of Secrets was opened.But he didn't dare to go into the girls' bathroom alone, so he took Ron to go with him.

But now something like this happened.

Harry glanced at the little wizard who was watching from the corner of his eye, and he was even more reluctant to speak out.

Saying it is the rhythm of social death.

The prefect frowned, he felt that there was a secret between these two people.

"What did you two do this afternoon? Professor McGonagall ordered everyone to register." The prefect said, "I said, even if it violates the school rules, there is no problem. Let you get rid of suspicion."

However, Harry and Ron were still reluctant to speak.
