Connor's Hogwarts

Chapter 258 Nothing Happened
"A sword pierced through the throat, cleanly and neatly. When we arrived at the scene, the troll was already dead."

"The three children said that a female swordsman in armor saved them, but this is obviously impossible. When we arrived, the monster's neck was still bleeding!"

"There are no swordsmen in the castle! I suspect those three brats are lying!"

"But it was indeed a sword wound, and there is no need for those children to deceive us."

"Okay! Alright! Be quiet!" Dumbledore patted the table, stopping the arguments of several professors: "Don't discuss this matter any more, I know what's going on, Minerva, Harry that Is the child seriously injured?"

"It's not serious. That kid is brave, but he's too reckless. Pomona has already taken him to Madam Pomfrey." Professor McGonagall replied with a nod.

"That's good, that's all for tonight, you all go back first," Dumbledore said.

Although the professors still had a lot of doubts, they didn't dare to question Dumbledore, and they left the principal's office one after another. Snape stayed at the end of the line. Before he left, he turned around and asked, "Dumbledore, I'm trying to cooperate with your plan, but you have something to hide from me."

"Severus, you'll know about this soon, don't worry too much."

".hope so."

"Severus, is your leg okay?"

"Accident, a small injury, it will heal soon. Being parasitized by that person, even a waste will become stronger."

"No, I mean, don't cure it first, do you have any way to make that child notice your injury."

"what?!"

"Well, you know, that kid always pays more attention to you."

".I see." Snape turned around and walked away in a muffled voice. He was so angry that he still didn't heal me when he was injured!This bastard principal!He only had eyes for Potter! (cross out)
Snape had just left the principal's office when he ran into Connor who had just come out of the dormitory.

"Mr. Lake, why are you hanging out outside the dormitory so late?!" Snape, who was in a very unhappy mood, said sullenly.

"Ah, hello, Professor Snape. Actually, it was Professor Dumbledore looking for me, and I don't want to come out late at night. Mr. Principal is really not considerate." Connor glanced at Snape's lame leg.

Hearing someone scolding Dumbledore, Snape felt inexplicably relieved: "Hmph, don't visit the castle at night by the way, and you don't want to meet trolls at night either."

Connor promised a few words, don't try to argue with Snape in front of him, if you don't want to be deducted points, this is the consensus of experienced students.

".In the future, you should spend more time on Potions class, don't waste your talent."

"Yes Yes Yes."

Snape walked away, and Connor walked straight into the headmaster's office.

"Professor Dumbledore."

"You got into trouble again, Connor."

"." Connor didn't know how to defend himself. He sat in his old position, his tone erratic: "Isn't it just a giant monster? If you are angry, I will catch another one for you."

"I don't mean this." Dumbledore looked at Connor, to be precise, at Connor's earrings, his eyes were deep: "Did you give the order to kill the troll?"

Connor was taken aback, what does Old Deng mean by this?Doubt my concept of good and evil?Still doubting Saber?

"Yes, I ordered Saber to secretly protect Harry."

Dumbledore was silent for a while, and said, "Connor, life is a precious thing, even if it's just a giant monster. I hope you can understand this."

Only then did Connor put away his disapproval, and sat upright to admit his mistake honestly: "Yes, Professor Dumbledore, I remember."

Dumbledore nodded in satisfaction. He liked Connor very much and didn't want the child to go astray. "Tonight, that person acted."

"Quirrell?"

"Yes, a few days ago, I asked the four deans to help me set up some [levels] to protect the Philosopher's Stone. I also notified Quirrell of this incident by the way." Dumbledore took out another handful of candy and placed it on the On the desktop, enter the "Friendly Chat" mode: "Then he told me that he can control the giant monster, and then he captured a giant monster from the Forbidden Forest and locked it outside the castle. He plans to use this as a checkpoint."

"Then he released his troll tonight, and then hid his face to check the mechanism on the fourth floor. Severus organized him, and now he is still pretending to be unconscious." Dumbledore shook with a smile Shaking his head: "Now that you've killed his troll, he's going to think about another idea again. I'm curious. How much power does Voldemort still have?"

"." I always felt that every move of Voldemort and his mount fell into Dumbledore's eyes, and Dumbledore even looked down on Voldemort a little bit. It's just that your huge advantage in the early stage was almost turned over by others in the end! Connor was thinking wildly , and then heard Dumbledore say again.
"Also. I always feel." Dumbledore's tone became hesitant: "I wonder if there is something wrong with my education of Harry."

"Huh? Eh?" Connor was puzzled.

"The professors told me just now that Harry jumped directly onto the troll's neck and hit it with his fists." Dumbledore rubbed the space between his brows: "Although this is also a sign of bravery, a wizard should not think of using Fists do the trick. I'm wondering if Gandalf should stop teaching Harry swordsmanship."

"Ah, this." Connor was stunned for a moment, then he laughed, rubbed the back of his head and said, "This, this, isn't this very good."

Connor blushed and said without panting: "Dare to face invincible opponents, this is the spirit of Gryffindor! I don't think there is any problem with this training plan! Well, it should continue to be carried out! Harry just this time If you don’t know your own strength enough, you just need to teach him to recognize your own strength! In short! It’s absolutely no problem for Harry to learn swordsmanship!”

Looking at Connor who was talking more and more excited, Dumbledore always felt that he seemed to have bad intentions, but when he thought about it seriously, there seemed to be nothing wrong with him. What Harry showed now was exactly the "heroic essence" that he had always hoped he could have. , so it should be. No problem, right?
"Well, that makes sense." Dumbledore stroked his beard, and decided to let Harry continue practicing swordsmanship, "By the way, I watched the monster card competition you held last month, it was very interesting, and the card Card games are also a beneficial pastime, I heard that you are going to hold a large-scale worldwide competition [Monster Cup]?"

"Yes, registration starts after Christmas. The competition will be held during the winter vacation, Easter vacation and summer vacation. I am confident that the [Monster Cup] will become an international event." Connor nodded and smiled.

"Well, since that's the case, I mean, if your plan is successful, starting next year, I will use it as [Monster Card Week] in October of each semester, and include the Monster Card Competition as a school-wide event for the winners What do you think of offering college points as a reward?"

"!!" Connor's eyes widened: "Is it really possible?"

"Of course, didn't you find out? Your card game has brought the little wizards of each college closer together." Dumbledore laughed: "I think this game is very meaningful. It can not only unite classmates, And the card duel is also full of wisdom, and many professors already like your monster cards."

"That's right, that's really great! It's the best news for me as a creator to be recognized by more people." Connor laughed so hard that he couldn't see his eyes, he seemed to see a mountain of Jin Gallon was walking towards him.

Dumbledore didn't know Connor's duplicity, he said with a smile: "Professor Nott's wish is being gradually realized by you, Connor, if he knows all this, he will be very pleased .”

"Ah? Ah, yes! That's right." Connor scratched his head with a smile.

Professor Nott's wish. What is it?
