HP wants to be boss at Hogwarts

Making a quick decision, before the students entered the aisle, Mino pushed all four of them to the ground as quickly as possible, then quickly sat on the ground himself, and then screamed uncontrollably.

"what--!"

The next second, students crowded into the aisle from both ends of the corridor.

When the people in front saw the upside-down cat, the lively and chirping sounds suddenly disappeared.

Harry and the others didn't realize why Mino did this, but they saw Mino suddenly shed tears.

In the eyes of the students who came in, they were frightened.

Mino deliberately posed it at an angle so that the students on both sides could see his side face. Then he put one hand on the ground and half-covered his mouth with the other. His eyes were full of fear, and tears were still falling from his eyes. .

Mino's performance successfully concealed Harry's stupidity, and Mino felt that he was one of the smartest people.

"What's going on here? What's going on?"

Filch, attracted by Minnow's screams, shouldered his way through the crowd.Then he saw Mrs. Norris, and he stumbled back a few steps, clutching his face with his hands in horror.

"My cat! My cat! What happened to Mrs Norris?" he screamed.

At this moment, his bulging eyes caught sight of Harry.

Mino spoke before he could say anything else.

"Mr. Filch! This is simply too terrible!" Minnow began to cry. "We saw this when we came here. Oh, Merlin! Why do you have to let us suffer like this!"

During Mino's performance, Draco had already stood up and pulled Mino up by the way.

Mino still had time to signal Astoria, who was eager to come over.

Harry recovered from the initial shock and saw Ron pulling Hermione up, so he stood up silently.

"It was you!" Filch glared at Harry. "It was you who killed my cat! You killed -"

"Mr. Filch! I know you are in pain, but this is not a reason for you to wrongly accuse others casually!" Mino put on a mask of pain, "I also like Mrs. Norris very much, and I also want to know who she is. He attacked it, but that person was definitely not Harry!"

If it weren't for the fact that the situation was wrong, Draco would have liked to roll his eyes when Minnow said that he liked Mrs. Norris very much.

"Argus!"

Dumbledore rushed to the scene, followed by many other teachers.In the blink of an eye, he walked past the five people and unhooked Mrs. Norris from the torch holder.

Snape stepped forward and touched Mino's head, and just whispered: "Don't be afraid."

Mino instantly felt very safe.

"Well, Professor, I'm not afraid anymore." Mino sniffed and showed a reluctant smile.

The Slytherins in the crowd were very calm. They didn't think that Mino would really be scared at all, and they just discussed it secretly with each other.

"She played really well." Daphne praised sincerely.

"No, it's better than before." Blake commented seriously.

"Come with me, Argus," Dumbledore said to Filch, "and you, Mr. Potter, Miss Potter, Mr. Weasley, Miss Granger, and Mr. Malfoy."

Lockhart stepped forward eagerly.

"My office is closest to here, the Headmaster—upstairs—you can—"

"Thank you, Gilderoy," said Dumbledore.

The silent crowd parted to let them pass.Lockhart was very excited, and he hurriedly followed Dumbledore with a high-spirited look. , Professor McGonagall also followed.

Snape and Minnow walked together. Although there was no expression on their faces, Minnow could somehow feel that Snape was worried about him.

So he tugged on Snape's super fluttering robe and said, "I'm really fine, Professor."

As they entered Lockhart's office, there was a sudden commotion on the walls.Minnow saw several photos of Lockhart hiding in panic, with curlers on their heads.

At this moment, the real Lockhart lit the candle on the table and stepped back.Dumbledore placed Mrs. Norris on the smooth table and began to examine it carefully.

Harry, Ron and Hermione exchanged nervous glances, but found that the other two didn't look over.

Minnow and Draco were craning their necks curiously as Dumbledore examined Mrs. Norris.

Harry tried desperately to make eye contact with Minnow, but Minnow didn't notice it, thinking about how Dumbledore would check it. Instead, Snape, who was next to Minnow, noticed it and gave Harry a sinister look.

Lockhart hovered around them, constantly making suggestions, and in short, he was seriously pretending to be Versailles' secret agent.

When Minnow finally noticed that Harry's eyes were about to twitch, Dumbledore finished checking and stood up.

"It's not dead, Filch."

Lockhart was counting the number of murders he had organized when he suddenly stopped.

Mino wanted to laugh a little. Just now Lockhart was still talking nonsense, but here Dumbledore made his decision.

"It's not dead?" Filch choked, looking at Mrs. Norris through his fingers. "Then why is it all over - all stiff, as if it's frozen?"

"He is petrified," said Dumbledore ("Ah, I thought so too!" said Lockhart), "but how exactly, I don't know..."

"Ask him!" screamed Filch, turning his mottled, tear-stained face towards Harry.

"It's impossible for a second year student to do that," said Dumbledore firmly, "it would require the highest Dark Arts—"

"He did it, he did it!" spattered Filch, his fat, sagging face turning purple. "You saw what he wrote on the wall! He found out— My office—he knows I'm a—I'm a—" Filch's face twitched horribly, "he knows I'm a Squib!"

"I didn't touch Mrs. Norris at all!" Harry shouted, "I don't even know what a squib means!"

"Yes! Harry has been staying with us the whole time!" Mino also said loudly, "We saw it together, and we were all scared!"

"Nonsense!" growled Filch. "He saw my correspondence letter for a quick spell!"

"Harry didn't receive any education in the wizarding world before the first grade. He doesn't even know what this is!" Minnow argued loudly with Filch, "And Harry is a Gryffindor, Chamber of Secrets His successor should be Slytherin no matter what!"

Mino patted Draco's shoulder righteously.

"Why don't you ask if Draco and I did it?"

Filch fell into a brief confusion, but Snape spoke.

"Please allow me to say something, Headmaster." Snape was a little dumbfounded by what Mino said, "Don't talk nonsense without evidence. Mino and Draco are both excellent students in Slytherin, and Kind and gentle.”

Minnow has discovered that whenever he makes any mistakes, as long as Harry and himself are around, Snape will not say something thought-provoking in order to protect himself. Sometimes he will even be punished because of gang crimes. Protect Harry.

"Mrs. Norris can still be saved. Of course we have to save her first. Don't you want to save Mrs. Norris?" Mino looked at Filch.

"Of course I did! What do you know!" Filch's eyes were full of anger.

"Then you should cure it quickly!"

"Cure it? You should tell me how to cure it!"

"We can cure it, Filch." Dumbledore said patiently. "Professor Sprout has recently obtained some mandrakes. Once they grow up, I will have a medicine that can cure it. Lady Liss comes back to life.”

"I'll configure it," Lockhart interjected. "I must have configured it a hundred times. I can configure the Mandrake Resurrection Potion while I'm dreaming—"

"Oh, I think Professor Snape is the right candidate." Mino blinked his innocent eyes, "After all, he is the Potions teacher at Hogwarts, and he can prepare potions meticulously. While dreaming – or in a dream.”

Snape gave a rare smile.

"Mino is right."

Dumbledore probably felt that it was not good for Minnow and Snape to sing along in this situation, so he let them go.

But Snape asked Minnow and Draco to wait for him in his office.

After leaving Lockhart's office, Harry was so excited that he almost ran.

After walking far away, Mino said to Harry: "Harry, don't worry, nothing will happen."

Mino thought of many things, and she felt that she was okay again.

Harry nodded gravely.

"Should we tell them what we heard?"

"Don't say it," said Ron without thinking, "it's not a good sign to hear voices that other people can't hear, even in the wizarding world."

Minnow and Draco said goodbye to Harry and the others - only Minnow said goodbye, and walked side by side to Snape's office.

"What noise did you hear?" Draco asked.

"I can't tell clearly. Anyway, it's a very strange sound, and it must be related to this matter." Mino said, looking at Draco who was glowing in the dark, "Do you believe me?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Draco frowned.

Mino was very moved, so he seriously suggested: "Draco, don't wear your hair in a slicked back from now on. Let your hair down."

"What's wrong?" Draco was a little confused.

Mino was silent for a moment, feeling that in this situation, it was not good to say that Draco would be bald in the future, so——

"That way, it looks better."
