The Lonely Dragon of Hogwarts

Chapter 6 The Way to Salvation

This sudden magical impact stunned John almost instantly.

At this time, Michelle finally discovered the situation in the basement.

Her pupils tightened, her body trembled, and her hands instinctively covered her mouth to prevent herself from screaming.

"crunch-"

The door rang.

Then there was another sound of heavy objects being dragged.

John turned his head subconsciously and saw another passage on the side of the basement.

At this moment, a ray of white light had penetrated into the dark basement along the passage.

Under this white light, the dust swirled by the airflow in the basement was clearly visible.

'No, someone is coming! '

John screamed inwardly.

A huge sense of crisis came instantly, and a burst of intense soreness appeared on his body, as if someone was pressing a sharp knife between his eyebrows!

Being stimulated by this, John didn't care about anything else. He stretched out his hand to pull Michelle back into the tunnel.

Contrary to what John expected, an 11-year-old girl like Michelle was not frightened by the horrific scene in front of her.

The moment John stretched out his hand, Michelle also stretched out her hand.

The two people's hands were clasped together in mid-air, showing a very high level of tacit understanding. They both turned sideways and got back into the narrow tunnel, and then looked at the gap in the tunnel almost at the same time.

At this moment, there was only one thing on their minds - the gap must be blocked!Don't let the person who is about to enter the basement find out!

The magic responded to their expectations.

With the surge of magic power in the body, the gap that was originally opened quickly closed as if someone pressed the reverse button, and returned to its original state.

After doing all this, the two people did not dare to relax at all, and bent down one after another and quickly returned to the hut.

It wasn't until the hole was blocked again with empty wooden boxes that John and Michelle collapsed on the floor.

At this time, their bodies were soaked with sweat, but their bodies were trembling non-stop.

Perhaps due to excessive fright, Michelle crawled to John's side before long and hugged John's arm tightly with both hands.

As soon as she hugged him, John felt as if his arm was clamped hard by iron pliers, and he almost cried out in pain.

John really didn't understand.

Obviously everyone lives in the same poor conditions in St. Brelade.

Although John and the nun take care of their usual meals and drinks, Michelle eats better than others.

But why is Michelle so strong?

This is almost catching up with adults!

Could it be said that this is also the talent of witches?

John bared his teeth and grabbed Michelle, and it took him a long time to pull his arm out.

Michelle also realized that she had accidentally hurt John, and apologetically blew and stroked John's arm, and finally said with worry and disbelief:

"About... John, what you said... is actually true!?"

Knowing that she wanted to find someone to talk to at this time to ease her inner fear, John also suppressed the discomfort in his arms and said:

"I told you, I won't lie to you. But don't worry, I will take you out together. Even if this tunnel is ruined, I have other ways! For sure!"

After speaking, John's tone became vicious.

To be honest, he did prepare a backup escape plan.

But at present, the mysterious visitors are obviously wizards who have mastered magic power, and have sealed the orphanage on a supernatural level, so all his plans are useless.

But despite saying this, there was no way to tell Michelle the truth.

This little girl's spirit has been tense to the extreme due to what just happened.

If she doesn't give her some hope, she might collapse!

However, John still underestimated Michelle's mental capacity.

As soon as he finished speaking, Michelle said like a cat that had been stepped on:

"No! What will happen to the other people in St. Brelade if we escape? We have to take them away too! Otherwise they will die!"

John subconsciously refused.

He has the kind of character that if you are good to me, I will be good to you.

Therefore, he had no feelings for the homeless people of St. Breladeli, and he never wanted to be a 'savior'.

The moment Michelle said those words, he even felt a strong dislike for Michelle!

What he hates most in his life is the Holy Mother!

But soon this emotion dissipated automatically, and was replaced by deep helplessness.

What right does he have to dislike Michelle?

Michelle herself is an extremely kind child, just like the archangel Michael, the archangel named after her, who is full of compassion.

He already knew this.

It was precisely after realizing that Michelle was a truly kind and compassionate person that John informed Michelle of the conspiracy about Mysterio and asked her to help him dig a tunnel while keeping it secret.

And Michelle did her best to help him even though she didn't believe him at all.

As a result, now he hates Michelle just because of her kindness?

You know, strictly speaking, John himself can be considered to have taken advantage of Michelle's kindness!

Isn't this just picking up the bowl to eat and putting the bowl down to curse?

John didn't think he could do such a shameless thing.

But, do I really want to save other homeless people?

Is this kind of thing really possible?

For a moment, John fell into deep thought.

Time passed slowly in silence, and Michelle also realized that she was trying to embarrass John. Her eyes turned red, and she knelt down weakly on the ground and said:

"I'm sorry, John, I went too far. Please don't be angry with me, or else... or you can hit me!"

John glanced at her and slowly raised his hand.

Seeing this, Michelle groaned, closed her eyes and shrank her head, as if she was preparing for a heavy blow.

Then the pain I imagined didn't appear.

John just pulled up his sleeves and wiped the sweat from Michelle's face.

"I'm not angry with you, and don't worry. It's getting late now. Let's go have dinner first and don't keep the nuns waiting. As for rescuing everyone, we still need to think about it in the long term. You know, I’m smart and can always find a way.”

John said with a smile.

Hearing this, Michelle couldn't bear it anymore, threw herself into John's arms and cried bitterly.

John patted Michelle's back to comfort him, his words were soft and warm, but his face was cold.

He did not promise Michelle that he would save all the homeless people in St. Brelade.

His and Michelle's safety is his first priority.

He can help other people in order to fulfill Michelle's wish.

But if neither of them can protect themselves.

Haha, sorry about that.

Thinking of this, the corner of John's mouth slightly raised, and as the magic power surged in his body, the pot of sunflowers in the corner seemed to have sensed John's emotions, and was dancing its branches and leaves happily.

At the same time, a young man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks stood outside the door of this hut.

He was seen clenching his fists tightly, with a look of excitement that was hard to conceal on his face.

Just now, he seemed to have heard something terrible!

"Damn witch, and John Shafiq! I want you to die this time!"

The young man said fiercely, his eyes full of fierceness.
