Unseal at Hogwarts

Chapter 36 Unexpected Help

Among the group of Slytherin students looking around, the two crouched people stood out.

They pointed fingers at Harry and Tom, but due to Harry's status, it was difficult to say anything.

Blaise Zabini nudged an angry Malfoy: "Look, Draco. Harry and Tom may have found something."

Malfoy took the opportunity to look at him, and his already bad mood became even worse.

"These two idiots!" he said angrily, "did they think they were attacking me on the floor? If they were counting ants, it would be more believable than this."

Zabini shrugged.

Malfoy stopped paying attention to him, and instead waved his wand to urge the surrounding Slytherins to continue searching.

Tom squatted so hard that his legs were numb, and he hadn't seen any movement from the shadow on the ground.

Harry took off his glasses and rubbed his sour eyes: "Nothing. Maybe I just saw it wrong."

"No, you read that right." Tom tapped his legs. "There is indeed something in the shadow."

Yes, since Tom can feel the existence of the "elimination" card, he can now distinguish the approximate location of the Clow card - of course, this feeling will only appear when he knows that there is a Clow card. .

Tom indeed sensed the aura of Clow Card in the shadow. The closer he got to the shadow on the ground, the more obvious this feeling became.

But this Clow card is obviously a very patient character. Tom and Harry stared at the shadow for more than ten minutes, but there was still no movement.

Even Malfoy, who had not found the culprit for a long time, planned to give up the search and go back to the dungeon.

"Forget it, let's go back first." Tom thought for a while and decided to let nature take its course.

After all, there are still professors in the castle, so there won't be any danger.

Tom selectively forgot that Moody was "cancelled" not long ago.

Harry glanced up at Malfoy and stood up.

Tom stood up, but after squatting for too long, the blood in his legs was so stimulated that he took several breaths of cold air. His body swayed and he was about to fall to the ground.

Harry quickly reached out to help Tom.

In a panic, Tom waved his hands in front of him, trying to grab something to steady himself.

Just when Tom felt that he could no longer control his body, a pair of strong hands supported him from behind.

"Thank you," Tom said gratefully.

Harry froze in place, blinking wildly at Tom.

Tom didn't know why, so he looked back after standing up.

He saw Malfoy standing behind him with a sullen face, his hands still holding Tom's back.

Tom tugged at the corner of his mouth in embarrassment. Seeing that Malfoy's robe and shirt were still in big tears, he suddenly felt blessed. He raised his wand and shot Malfoy "Restore as before".

The torn shirt and robe were restored to their complete appearance at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even the dark lines on the robe still had a faint flow of brilliance.

"This is in return for your help." Tom said, with a hint of uncertainty in his voice.

Malfoy's face darkened.

He snorted bitterly from his nose, put his hands behind his back, and strode away.

Goyle and Crabbe followed quickly. Pansy Parkinson looked at Tom strangely and jogged to keep up with Malfoy.

After a while, all the Slytherin students left.

"I shouldn't have done anything wrong, right?" Tom asked Harry inexplicably, squeezing his still tingling legs with his hands.

Harry laughed dryly, picked up the textbook on the ground with one hand, and held up Tom's arm thoughtfully with the other hand: "Who knows what trouble the young master has committed? To be honest, I didn't expect him to come to help him. you."

"Isn't this something that no one would have thought of?" Tom straightened up and moved downstairs step by step with Harry's help. "Didn't Malfoy still act like 'don't come near me' before? Maybe I fell down. He happened to be behind me at that time?"

"No." Harry's whole face wrinkled up, as if he had swallowed a disgusting fly, "On the contrary, I was closest to you when you fell, and Malfoy was still a few steps away."

"Then what..." Tom was so shocked that his legs were numb.

"Maybe he still misunderstands that you made Moody disappear? You know, Moody is not popular at all in Slytherin." Seeing that Tom could walk well on his own, Harry let go of his supporting hand. , touched his chin.

"So this is to thank me for breathing out a sigh of relief for everyone?" Tom's cheek muscles twitched, and he was speechless. "It's not his turn! Forget it, it's all a trivial matter, don't think about it anymore."

Tom waved his hand, took back his textbook from Harry's arms, and strode towards the Slytherin common room.

Harry looked at Tom's back with a tangled expression on his face and hesitated to speak.

Finally, he sighed, caught up with Tom, and they returned to the dormitory together.

Neither Harry nor Tom noticed that in the shadow of the castle, a black shadow "brushed" into Harry's shadow cast on the ground.

Early the next morning, almost all the fourth-year Slytherin students came to the common room yawning.

Tom saw that they had applied more than a dozen "radiances" on himself to cover up the heavy dark circles left by the astronomy class last night.

Harry next to him had disheveled hair and dull eyes.

"Are you okay?" Tom straightened his collar and asked Harry worriedly.

"To be honest, it's not very good." Harry opened his mouth wide and yawned in an imageless way, causing several Slytherins to stay away from him in disgust, "I couldn't sleep last night. By the way, But what about Rubelos? He didn’t come back to sleep last night.”

Tom remembered the conversation he had with Kerubelos last night when Harry went into the bathroom to wash up.

Tom told Kerubelos what happened when he came back from get out of class, and Kerubelos told him that this time it was probably the "Shadow" card that had appeared. It planned to strike while the iron was hot and sneak out to see what was going on.

"Maybe it had too much fun with Mrs. Norris," Tom said nonchalantly.

Mrs. Norris is a skinny cat with long, smooth hair. She is the pet of Filch, the administrator of Hogwarts. She patrols the castle with Filch every night and helps Filch catch night wanderers. s student.

Although Filch did not have a good reputation among students, and even because of his bad attitude, many students were disgusted. As his minion, Mrs. Loris was also not loved by the students, but Rubelos and Loris He has a good relationship with Madam and often takes Madam Norris for walks.

"With Mrs. Norris?" Harry scratched his hair. His already messy hair looked even more messy because of his claws. "Yes, it has a really good relationship with Mrs. Norris! I hope Lorris For the sake of Kerubelos, Madam Si can let us go during our night tour."
