Unseal at Hogwarts

There was a crisp sound of fabric tearing.

Tom only felt that his neck was tightened by the robe. He didn't feel suffocated yet, and his neck felt much more relaxed.

Seeing that Tom was a little panicked, Professor McGonagall pursed her lips. Professor Snape looked at Tom expressionlessly.

Tom quietly moved closer to Kerubelos.

"Professor..." he said hesitantly, "I don't know what happened. Professor Moody was talking to me just now, and suddenly..."

Professor McGonagall nodded gently to Tom in a soothing manner, but her serious expression showed the seriousness of the situation.

She walked past Tom and stood where Tom had been standing for a closer look.

"There is a very strange magical fluctuation, but it is not dark magic." After a while, she turned back to Professor Snape and said.

Professor Snape frowned: "This is obviously not something that a fourth-year student like Mr. Cooper can do - maybe we should let Dumbledore find out the situation."

Tom and Kerubelos looked at each other.

"I think it's time for you to be with your classmates - like Potter, who has always been with you."

Tom nodded immediately and ran towards the Slytherin common room.

The two professors looked at his leaving figure with solemn expressions.

"It seems that the situation is not good." Professor McGonagall spoke first, "Is there something wrong with Alastor?"

"It's always right to be cautious. There are always some unexplainable situations happening around that child - maybe we should pay attention to that child." Snape's voice sounded a little gloomy.

"But you have seen his performance in the past few years. He is indeed a good boy." Professor McGonagall said disapprovingly.

They started walking towards the principal's office on the eighth floor.

On this side, Tom and Kerubelos slipped into an empty classroom while no one was paying attention.

"It's the Clow card, right?" Tom asked immediately after locking the door with the "Ingot" card.

But Rubelos sat on the ground: "This time it is indeed the Clow card - elimination."

"remove?"

"Yes. Disappearance can make people or objects disappear."

"Wait a minute!" Tom was a little flustered. "Can you also make people disappear? Where will the disappeared people be? Is Professor Moody still alive?"

"With his attitude towards you, are you still worried about his safety?" Rubelos groaned, "Don't worry, I really felt a strong aura of the Clow Card at that time - as long as It will put the disappeared person or object in a special space, and that ugly professor will be fine!"

Tom breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves finally relaxed.

"It's fine, I'm worried about someone's life!" Tom sat down on the desk casually, "After all, this is a human life. As for Moody's attitude towards me, I will find an opportunity to take revenge. Now I He doesn’t have much strength yet, and it’s not enough for a professor.”

"Yes, yes." Kerberos shook his ears, "After all, you have only learned magic for a week, and you don't even have a few Clow cards. If you just show your ambition for a while, you will definitely not be able to walk around."

Tom was convinced.

"Now another Clow card has finally appeared. Let's find a way to seal it first."

"That's true, but I don't know where to start." Tom thought for a while and said, "The last time I was able to seal the Shi and Shi tiles in school, it was because of their sudden appearance that I was able to seal them. Found an opportunity, this time..."

"Didn't you feel anything at all when the Clow card appeared?"

"What does it feel like?" Tom asked strangely.

"It feels like the Clow card has appeared!" Kerberos said matter-of-factly.

"..."

"..."

"Okay," Rubelos lowered his head, as if he had no way to deal with Tom, "feel it with your heart, it's that kind of thing. Carefully feel the energy fluctuations around you, and you should be able to feel a kind of Clow Card in you. The intimacy of being around.”

Tom was confused: "...I know the intimacy, energy fluctuations..."

"Close your eyes first!" Kerubelos swung his tail.

Tom closed his eyes obediently.

"Feel carefully, is there a strange energy surrounding you?" Kerubelos asked expectantly.

"Well... don't speak for now." Tom understood carefully what Kerubelos said.

But this feeling is really beyond the scope of Tom's ability. Over the years, he has always attached great importance to practical basis in everything he does. This kind of feeling... To be honest, it is really a very mysterious thing.

Fortunately, Tom is smart.

He thought that maybe he could regard this mysterious feeling as the basis for the actual existence of the Clow Card, and what he had to do was to detect the activity trajectory of the hidden Clow Card - similar to a magnetic field detector.

He feels it seriously.

"Hu-hu-"

This was the sound of his and Kerubelos breathing.

"Plop plop plop"

This is his heartbeat.

well? But Rubelos doesn’t have a heartbeat?

Tom felt strange and suddenly opened his eyes.

"Do you feel it?" Ruberos's shining eyes were very close.

Tom quickly moved back and shook his head.

"Hey -" Rubelos sighed in disappointment, "Okay, I don't expect you to feel it all at once."

Tom said unwillingly: "How can you expect me to feel something so mysterious and mysterious all at once? But it's not a big problem. I want to try it a few more times and I should be able to feel it."

But Rubelos remembered the gadgets that Tom had tinkered with during the summer vacation, and he still had some confidence in Tom.

They left the classroom and returned to the Slytherin lounge - after all, Professor Moody's mysterious disappearance had just happened, so they had better not hang around for the time being and listen to the professor's words.

In the common room, Harry sat alone on a cushion, writing on parchment with a quill.

Sitting on the most comfortable sofa with Malfoy, flipping through the textbooks.

Pansy Parkinson sat at Malfoy's lap, playing wizard chess with Blaise Zabini.

Goyle and Crabbe were nestled not far away, eating their desserts.

Several other Slytherin students gathered around in twos and threes, talking in low voices.

As soon as Tom and Kerubelos came in, everyone in the lounge turned to look at them, and then continued with the matter at hand as if nothing had happened.

As soon as Harry saw Tom, he immediately got up from his cushion, leaving his quill and parchment scattered on the floor.

With a worried look on his face, he walked quickly to Tom: "Are you okay?"

Everyone in the Slytherin common room stretched their ears.

"What?" Tom didn't react for a moment.

"I just heard that Professor Moody suddenly disappeared in front of you." Harry whispered in Tom's ear, "Are you okay? Are you injured?"
