Hogwarts 1991

Chapter 88 The Aggrieved Professor Quirrell

In the Gryffindor lounge.

"Oh my god! It's so over there!" Someone screamed and led the group of people to the window.

"What's going on here?" Hermione asked worriedly.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione followed a large group of people looking at the direction of the Black Lake from the windows of the dormitory.

The huge squid made a weird roar, and slapped the lake water with several tentacles. The lake water was stirred up in a mess, and the water splashed everywhere like a torrential rain. The lake water flooded the lawn on the shore in waves.

by the lake.

Two figures in black robes were able to repel the squid with spells of various colors of light in their wands, trying to subdue it.

Hagrid was carrying the huge crossbow. He had just come to the lake from the Forbidden Forest.
At this time, a large flock of birds flew up in the Forbidden Forest, and the beasts ran away from the lake.

When he came to the lake, he took a breath and watched, the big squid in the lake fluttered its tentacles in the sky like a rage, and then hit it hard like a big splash in the lake.

Fang Fang whimpered when he saw it, shut his mouth, stopped barking loudly, but bit Hagrid's trouser leg to get him out of this dangerous place.

There was no other way, so he had no choice but to let go of this timid guy now, and told him.

"Go to the hut first, don't run around..."

After that, Hagrid strode towards Professor Snape on the shore.

As he approached, he heard a vague murmur, like a spell, or a human name, with a chilling feeling.

— Mai XXXX Burt is flying!

"Professor Snape, what's the matter?" Hagrid asked Snape very anxiously, he threw the bow on his back aside, it was not needed for the time being.

Because even with such a big bow, it might not be effective in the face of such a huge monster like a mountain.

Uncharacteristically, Professor Quirrell mustered up the courage to lean against the shore, holding his wand, and he was looking at the lake as if waiting for something.

Malfoy followed closely behind Quirrell, trembling all over, not knowing whether it was fear or cold.

Professor Snape didn't answer, he was constantly using various spells to try to calm down the monster in front of him.

"Professor Quirrell, what are you doing?"

Hagrid wondered what the hell Professor Quirrell was doing?
"Wait-wait-wait for a green light," Quirrell said.

——Green light?What the hell?

Haig Zhang Er was puzzled and looked towards the lake, relying on his size, he spotted a green light flying towards the two of them before Quirrell.

Hey, what a monster!
No, no, it was a person, but there was a frightening green beam of light on his head.

——A little closer, I found that it was actually a MacGuffin!

(It was only then that Hagrid realized that the voice just now was the Flying Curse. It was the spell that Quirrell recited without stammering, and he didn't recognize it for a while)

MacGuffin Albert's head was facing the direction of several people, emitting a green light that made Hagrid's eyes hurt.

"What the hell is this..." Hagrid looked at several people questioningly.

What on earth did they do here to make this big squid who had made his home in the Black Lake of Hogwarts so furious.

How did the MacGuffin become like this?

How green the head is makes people panic!

Hagrid quickly caught the McGuffin on the ground and put it down.

"McGuffin, MacGuffin!" He flapped, wanting to do something, but didn't know what to do, and then Professor Quirrell came up to him, trying to cast some healing spells.

It's just that he has become the stammering and timid Professor Quirrell again, and the spells are always stuttering and fail to succeed.

It was just after noon, and although the weather was cold, there were always some students wandering around the campus.

The occurrence of such a remarkable event naturally attracts people's attention.

The students who came from the castle or near the lake were a little daring and wanted to approach here—see what's going on?

At the same time, the alarmed professors rushed over.

Hagrid muttered to himself when he caught sight of the two furtive red-haired figures.

"I need to drive these little melons back to Hogwarts Castle."

Quirrell ordered Hagrid by the way, "B-bring Malfoy back..."

"But there are still MacGuffins..." Hagrid's original idea was to bring the MacGuffins to the infirmary first, and come over to stop these little wizards.

"Let Professor Quirrell simply rescue McGuffin and take him to Mrs. Penrad!"

Suddenly a familiar voice sounded next to them.

At some point, Dumbledore had already arrived in front of several people, and not far behind him were other professors who were rushing over.

Then he frowned at Quirrell, who was frantically waving his wand, but to no avail.

MacGuffin, lying on the cold ground, had a pale face, purple lips, and water oozed out of his nostrils. Apart from a slight heaving of his chest, there was no other sign that he was still alive.

Dumbledore waved his wand, and an orange beam shot into McGuffin.

—the bubbling sound of gurgling.

All the muddy water that seemed to be poured into the McGuffin's body continued to flow out of the mouth and nose, and then there was a violent coughing sound.

—McGuffin's chest was shaking and heaving violently, like an old bellows twitching.

At this time, Quirrell reluctantly used a spell to blast McGuffin's clothes dry.

He then used the Silent Levitation Charm to levitate the still unconscious, but excruciatingly distressed MacGuffin.

He took the McGuffin and walked towards the castle. At this time, Hagrid had already taken Malfoy away.

Dumbledore looked at the squid waving its tentacles in the black lake again.

Like Snape, the other professors who had just arrived at the edge of the Black Lake chose the Stunning Curse to subdue the monster in front of them.

There was a red light in their wands, trying to knock them unconscious.

——They didn't want to hurt this old friend, the big squid, who had always lived near Hogwarts and often rescued those imprudent and drowning little devils.

Dumbledore shook his head. He knew that these spells couldn't pierce the squid's slippery magic-resistant skin.

So he waved the bone elder wand, first three water jets tumbling like fountains appeared in the lake, and then as he cast the spell, the water jets turned into water dragons and shot up directly into the sky, wrapping around the squid's body tightly, leaving no gaps, forming a mountain-sized water ball wrapped around the squid and slowly rotating, with the tips of the remaining tentacles leaking out and twitching continuously.

Only the squid's weird, shrill sound was still oozing out of it.

All the students and professors stood there dumbfounded, watching the almost miraculous scene in shock.

……

Hogwarts students of all years hurried past Quirrell and out.

Everyone's expressions showed uncontrollable excitement, they were talking about each other - Dumbledore, the big squid, the water polo...

Quirrell ignored it. He finally used the hard-won deep-sea ink to irritate the squid. He wanted to take this opportunity to quickly finish the interrogation of McGuffin and complete the master's task.

While everyone's attention was outside, Quirrell brought McGuffin to the restaurant not far from the first floor—the room used for sorting and waiting for freshmen.

There must be no one in there at this time.

Enter the room and place the McGuffin on the floor.

There is not much time left for him.

— must act quickly!
He raised his wand, pointing at the McGuffin.

"Clear water slowly!"

A clear spring spewed out from the tip of the wand, pouring it on the McGuffin's head.

Then--

"Soul out of the body!"

An unforgivable spell resounded in the room.

……

An unspeakable feeling replaced the original physical pain, McGuffin's whole body became light, and his mind was filled with joyful feelings.

He had never felt so relaxed, and his worries and pain had completely disappeared.

A voice came from his ears, some familiar and some strange, and he kept thinking about it in his empty head:

"You are free now, you can do whatever you want, you will be very happy, very happy... I want to ask some questions, and you have to answer them truthfully?... Only in this way can you maintain this kind of happiness..."

—I'm free...I can do what I want...I'll listen to you...

For some reason, McGuffin wanted to repeat that sentence aloud, as if he would be free in this way, and he would be able to maintain this kind of joy and happiness forever.

But for some reason, a cold questioning voice came from the deep corner of his head.

It was an unusually familiar voice, or one that could be heard every moment.

—Reject him!reject him!reject him!

McGuffin suddenly realized that the familiar voice was his own.

Two voices were constantly fighting for the right to speak in his head. He wanted to say that sentence, but at the same time he didn't want to say it. The result was that a sentence hidden deep in his mind subconsciously emerged, maintaining the balance between the two.

"Mondo can do whatever he wants!!"

Ok?
Three big question marks popped up on Quirrell's head? ? ?
--What exactly is going on?

—never seen anything like it, nor would it be the case if someone resisted the Imperius Curse?

Unbelievingly, Quirrell continued to guide McGuffin to obey his words, and he wanted to figure out the secret hidden in this little wizard.

"Tell me what is your secret?" Quirrell raised his wand and waved it, this time directly and forcefully ordered.

"Mundo thinks you're a bitch!!"

"Who is Mondo? Answer me...or you will be punished the most horrible in the world!" Quirrell's veins twisted into a knot.

"The people of Patriarch An are fearless... There is a kind of silence... Boy! I guarantee that you and your whole family will be immortal..."

Quirrell suddenly felt chills behind him, feeling that he had heard something that he shouldn't touch.

He shook his head to dispel the ominous feeling, straightening the scarf.

Quirrell must continue to complete the task given by the master, and he began to continue to interrogate MacGuffin...

……

After Hagrid spent a long time driving the twin brothers of the Weasley family away from the lake, he found that Professor Quirrell had passed them into Hogwarts Castle with his wand and the McGuffin floating in the air.

Malfoy, who was following behind him, repeatedly asked Hagrid to send him to the infirmary so that Mrs. Pomrad could take a look at his 'serious' injuries.

He insisted he was attacked by the squid's tentacles.

"I need to go to the school hospital... what if I pass out halfway?" Malfoy yelled sharply.

Ever since he was almost slapped to death by a squid just like a fly, Malfoy suddenly felt very safe in front of Hagrid, a big, stupid man. Let alone other things, no matter how big he is, he can attract enough firepower. In case something happens...

Hagrid looked at Malfoy.

It was found that there was nothing serious about him other than being soaked and shaking with fright.

Shaking his head, he didn't intend to pay attention to this hysterical little melon.

Malfoy threatened Hagrid, "My father is the chairman of Hogwarts... Be careful you will be fired..."

Hagrid gave this little Slytherin kid a contemptuous look, and said directly, "I'm here to stop these brats from approaching the lake, so you can go to the school hospital by yourself!"

I don't know why the little wizards rushed out of the castle in groups one after another excitedly, wanting to go to the Black Lake.

Hagrid was like chasing a group of chickens, lying on the side of the road, relying on his height, to drive these bold little guys to the castle.

He couldn't care less about Malfoy's nonsense right now.

"Hagrid! Hagrid!"

Harry screamed excitedly, and also ran over from the castle.

He was followed by Hermione, Ron and the others, and behind him was a large group of Gryffindor lion cubs.

At this time, Hagrid found that behind them was a dense crowd of students.

There are little wizards in their robes, from all grades, everyone is whispering to each other, and the atmosphere is noisy and lively.

"What the hell is going on, Harry?" Hagrid asked, knowing at this moment that he would never be able to block such a large group of people anyway.

"Hagrid,...you look back at the Black Lake..." Harry couldn't describe what he saw, he could only feel it when he saw it with his own eyes.

Hagrid looked back - an incomparably spectacular, unbelievable scene appeared in front of him.

I don't know when a huge water ball like Hogwarts Castle floated above the lake.

This huge water polo or small planet is constantly rotating in one direction.

The squid was rolled up by the constantly rotating water polo and let out a scream. The twitching tentacles struggled out of the water column and trembled slightly, and then they were caught in it again.

At the same time, Quirrell, who had just come out, was also stunned by fright, and the wand fell on the ground without realizing it.

Trembling all over (this is not fake!)
— After everything that just happened, it was too much.

Quirrell thought aggrievedly.

After being dazed by the foul language of the 'Old Zaun' McGuffin who was awakened by the Imperius Curse, Professor Quirrell, who was almost breathless, finally managed to ask something with the Imperius spell.

"So, that's it! You did see the master...but don't you know what happened?... Was it a coincidence that the war magic was cast together with Harry and the others?"

Quirrell said weakly, "It seems that you never told anyone about this, did you..."

It's like questioning, but actually answering the question yourself.

"Silence!" Quirrell quickly added the spell.

McGuffin wanted to spit out fragrance, but was immediately 'muted'!

After doing all this, Quirrell leaned weakly against the wall of the room, took a few deep breaths, and then quickly restored the McGuffin to Mrs. Penrad's infirmary.

—He couldn't wait to get rid of this nightmare.

When I came outside Hogwarts, I could finally breathe some fresh air, but I saw such a 'scary' scene.

——All of this is too harsh on myself!

He closed his eyes in grievance and fear, and opened them again.

--it is true?It didn't disappear.

At this time, Quirrell finally understood why the master was so afraid of Dumbledore?

——This Nima is too outrageous!
