Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard

 Chapter 379 The ferocious Blake didn’t even miss a painting

After seeing Professor Dumbledore, Kyle knew that this matter basically had nothing to do with them.

 Soon, other professors arrived.

 A tabby cat jumped down from the pillar next to the stairs and transformed into Professor McGonagall in mid-air.

 Snape ran over nervously and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Connor was fine.

 Professor Lupine followed him, wand held tightly in his hand.

"Chasing Black...what the **** are you playing?" Professor McGonagall's lips turned pale with anger, and her voice was cold.

"Black is one of the most vicious criminals in the history of the wizarding world. Do you know how dangerous it is to do this... You are lucky not to be killed by him!"

 Snape gave Kyle a quick and threatening look.

"So, can anyone explain it to us?" Professor Dumbledore's face was equally serious.

"That's it, Professor..." Fred and George stood up immediately and described in detail what had happened before.

It’s just that they didn’t talk about the Room of Requirement, and they deliberately ignored the Mist Gem. They just talked about playing with the newly purchased joke props in the empty room.

“By the time we noticed the time, the party had already begun…”

“We saw Blake on the way to the auditorium…”

“He stood in front of the Fat Lady’s portrait, trying to break into the Gryffindor common room…”

"If we hadn't just appeared, maybe he would have succeeded..." Fred did not forget to take credit in the end, "It was really thrilling, just a little bit close."

"Actually, only the Fat Lady can open the entrance to the common room." Professor McGonagall said with a straight face, but her tone was not as cold as before.

“Without the Fat Lady’s consent, Black would not be able to get in even if he dug through the wall.”

Fred and George were speechless for a moment, and turned their heads to the side in embarrassment.

“Then why did you chase him after you found out he had run away?”

When talking about this, Professor McGonagall became angry again, "Why can't you just go to the auditorium and notify the professor like Miss Qiu Zhang did!"

"We were worried that he would attack other students..." Fred said. "We wanted to catch him as quickly as possible."

 “Black doesn’t have a wand, this is his best chance.”

"Mr. Weasley..." said Professor McGonagall, "can you guarantee that Black has not snatched other wizards' wands before?"

"Then why is he running..." George muttered quietly: "I mean, we are just a few students. If he has a wand, why is he running..."

“Perhaps he just wants to use this method to make you relax your vigilance, and then kill you one by one.”

Snape said sullenly: "That wizard is a scumbag..."

 Listening to Snape's words, Professor Lupine had a complicated expression. He did not refute, but just sighed in pain.

 “Which way did he go?” asked Professor Dumbledore.

“I lost track of him, Professor,” Kyle said. “He’s very familiar with the school, so I couldn’t catch him.”

“Yes, no one knows this place better than him.”

Lupine walked up to Dumbledore and said, "Professor, we need to conduct a comprehensive search of the castle."

"Do you want to catch Black that much?" Snape sneered, "Or do you have other ideas?"

"You should know, Severus." Professor Lupine said solemnly: "I want to catch him more than anyone else."

"I hope so..." Snape moved his lips, as if he didn't want Kyle and the others to hear too much.

"Professor McGonagall..." Dumbledore said at the right moment, "I think they must be starving. Can you please take them to the Great Hall before the banquet is over?"

By the way, we have to conduct a large search of the castle next. The students may have to stay in the auditorium for one night, so it doesn't matter if the banquet time is slightly longer. "

"I understand." Professor McGonagall nodded and left with Kyle and others. When passing by the Fat Lady's portrait, Kyle found that a large piece of canvas had been torn off entirely.

 The Fat Lady is not on it, probably hiding in other paintings.

 Professor McGonagall also noticed this, and her expression became even uglier.

"You see, the ferocious Blake didn't even miss a single painting. Do you know how stupid your behavior just now is..."

After arriving at the auditorium, she opened the door and let a few people in.

 Professors Flitwick and Sprout were guarding the door.

"Minerva, how are you..." Professor Flitwick asked, putting down the wand in his hand.

 “It’s Black,” Professor McGonagall whispered.

Professor Flitwick scratched his chest and gasped, "How did he come in without the dementors at the door seeing him?"

"I don't know, but they have already let Black run through once..." Professor McGonagall said, "We will conduct a large search of the castle later, and the students will spend the night in the Great Hall tonight."

 “Come in quickly.”

She turned to the people behind her and said: "Because of your recklessness, both Gryffindor and Hufflepuff will be deducted ten points... Ravenclaw plus twenty points, because only Miss Qiu Zhang made the mistake. made the right choice.”

 After finishing speaking, Professor McGonagall left again.

Keir walked to the Hufflepuff table with Connor and Cedric.

 The table was filled with delicious food, but no one was eating. Everyone was looking at them and asking about what happened.

“Quiet!” Professor Flitwick shouted: “Don’t worry, nothing will happen. The party will continue...”

The auditorium was a little quieter, but subtle discussions could still be heard.

 “Are you okay?”

Qiu didn't know when she sneaked over to Hufflepuff, hiding between Connor and Cedric, and asked with her head stuck out.

"It's okay." Cedric said, "The professors will arrive in about two minutes, but how did you do it? You ran from the eighth floor to the auditorium so quickly."

“Of course I didn’t run,” Qiu said. “I went to the Room of Requirement again, got a broom from there, and flew directly to the auditorium.”

 “Oh...that’s so clever.” Cedric gave a thumbs up, “As expected of Ravenclaw.”

"Don't say this, I haven't settled the score with you yet." Qiu looked at them dissatisfied: "They all said they were going to notify the professor, but in the end they ran faster than the other."

"Mainly because I didn't think much about it at the time..." Cedric scratched his hair, "I subconsciously chased after him."

"Then why are you dragging me...Don't deny it, I saw it all," Qiu glared at Cedric, "Do you think I am weak and will hold you back?"

"Someone has to report the news..." Cedric said with a slight embarrassment.

"And it turns out I was right, we and Gryffindor both got ten points deducted, and only Ravenclaw got twenty points."

 “Huh…” Qiu sneered and continued to stare at Cedric, “We are only twenty points short of Ravenclaw?”

"Ahem...Ravenclaw's house score is the first." Kyle pointed to the hourglass and whispered: "And it's just five points more than Slytherin."

Qiu's next words were stuck in her mouth and she couldn't say them out.

"Yes, that's it." Cedric nodded quickly and said, "You are on par with Slytherin now. Maybe just because of these twenty points, you can win the Academy Cup in the end."
