The Lonely Dragon of Hogwarts

Chapter 19 Professor McGonagall

The tabby cat nimbly avoided the corpses and various stone thorns on the ground, and finally jumped towards John and Michelle.

In mid-air, her figure began to twist and deform, and finally transformed into a woman wearing square glasses, with black hair tied into a high bun, and wearing a dark green robe.

"Merlin! Children! Children, are you okay?"

She said anxiously, while still reaching out to groping Michelle and John.

She was relieved until she confirmed that the two of them had just fainted and were not in danger of their lives.

"Tattoo..."

There was another rush of footsteps.

An old man with long white hair ran over quickly.

He glanced at John and Michelle and said somewhat seriously:

“Who is Michelle Shafiq?”

"It's this one," Professor McGonagall first pointed at Michelle, and then looked at John, "And this... should be named John Shafiq. I heard from Michelle when I came to visit last time. I mentioned it before, it’s Michelle’s brother, a Muggle child.”

"No, you are wrong, he is not a Muggle, but a young wizard."

"Dumbledore! Are you serious?"

"Of course, I can feel the magic smell on him."

"But...but why doesn't he appear in the student list?"

"Maybe it's because the magic power broke out too late, or maybe..."

Dumbledore paused for a moment, then glanced at the red-hatted corpses and various instrument specimens lying around, and finally landed on the old man in black robes. "Tony Gray is a second-level wanted dark wizard in the Ministry of Magic. He once killed someone in Liverpool." Twelve Muggles have died, this should be his stronghold."

Professor McGonagall noticed Dumbledore's gaze, frowned and said:

"You want to say that John is related to dark wizards?"

"Who knows? Those dark wizards are indeed reluctant to let their children or apprentices enter Hogwarts, so they often try to block the perception of the student list." Dumbledore said with some uncertainty, "But... But I can feel that the magic power in his body is normal, and there is no breath of black magic. Moreover, it seems that he and this Michelle teamed up to destroy the dark wizard's stronghold. In this case, he should not be with the black magic. Is there such a close relationship between wizards..."

While Dumbledore was speaking, Professor McGonagall had already started preliminary treatment on John and Michelle.

She carefully cut open John's shirt, trying to confirm the number and extent of John's rib fractures so as to determine the dosage of the bone spirit.

But soon she exclaimed.

Because, John's chest was actually covered with all kinds of old and new scars.

"Merlin! This child...this child..."

Professor McGonagall covered her mouth, her voice trembling slightly.

Seeing this, Dumbledore shook his head and said:

"Minerva, there is no need to use medicine on him. The Aurors will treat him after taking the certificate."

"Auror? You want to leave him with the Aurors?"

Professor McGonagall looked at Dumbledore in disbelief. She knew the style of those Aurors very well.

This group of men has transformed from the embodiment of justice that fought against the dark wizards more than ten years ago to hounds chasing merit.

If John fell into their hands, he would not be tortured, but he would definitely be tortured.

This is really cruel to an eleven or twelve-year-old child!

Professor McGonagall took a deep breath and said with a serious expression:

"I heard Michelle mention John. He was a very kind and outstanding child, and Michelle was well taken care of by him. Some time ago, someone wanted to conduct a witch trial on Michelle, but John also blocked it. In addition, someone wanted to conduct a witch trial on Michelle. , and the nun named Arianna, who also spoke highly of John."

I don't know why Dumbledore's original serious expression gradually relaxed a little.

He looked at Professor McGonagall and said tentatively:

"Do you mean to..."

"Yes, I want John to attend Hogwarts too!"

"But he's related to dark wizards."

"You also said that he doesn't have the aura of black magic in his body. He and Michelle even destroyed this dark wizard stronghold! Maybe he simply broke out his magic power too late? This kind of situation has happened before."

Professor McGonagall noticed that Dumbledore's expression relaxed a little, so he continued, "We can take him back to Hogwarts for observation first, which can also be considered as giving him a chance. After all, he is just a child, and educating children , is our bounden duty!”

Dumbledore lowered his eyes slightly and said:

"It's not appropriate."

"What's inappropriate? And you dare to say that your vision must be correct?"

Professor McGonagall choked, "You were so optimistic about Sirius Black back then! What happened? What did he do later? Is he suitable for Gryffindor House?"

Dumbledore raised his eyebrows and said:

"In terms of courage alone, he is indeed very brave for daring to do such a terrible thing."

"Dumbledore!!"

"Oh, okay, okay, I was just joking, don't be so angry." Dumbledore smiled and begged, "Since you insist on doing so, then do what you want. I agree to let him enter next semester. Learned it at Hogwarts."

Hearing this, Professor McGonagall stopped talking, but her lips were still pursed tightly, looking very angry.

Dumbledore smiled helplessly, and together with Professor McGonagall, took John and Michelle out of the basement.

"Going back to Hogwarts directly next?"

Professor McGonagall didn't ask until after walking some distance.

Dumbledore shook his head and said:

"No, Hogwarts is not ready yet and cannot accommodate students for the time being. So you have to find another place to place them and observe them again."

Professor McGonagall's eyes widened and she said in disbelief:

"You mean to let me handle it all by myself? What about you?"

"Me? I need to notify the Aurors first and let them clean up the mess here. Then I have to go to France to meet an old friend. Well, so I'm still very busy."

As soon as Dumbledore said this, Professor McGonagall pursed her lips tighter.

Because she heard that Dumbledore was going to be the boss again.

This is a critical period before freshmen enroll. Dumbledore's departure at this time is tantamount to leaving a large amount of freshmen work to her along with John and Michelle.

Such an outrageous workload is simply insane!

Professor McGonagall subconsciously wanted to refuse, but before she could say anything, Dumbledore winked at her and disappeared in a crackle.

"Hush-huh-"

Professor McGonagall took several deep breaths before suppressing the anger in her heart, grabbing John and Michelle and walking further away.
