The sky was overcast and night once again enveloped Hogwarts.

The door to the Gryffindor lounge was pushed open, awakening the fat lady who had been sleeping. She didn't see anyone, only the sound of broken footsteps getting farther and farther.

Albert cast the Disillusionment Curse on himself and Hermione. Harry and Ron were squeezed together, and the invisibility cloak could barely cover them.

Harry and Ron stayed in the castle waiting for an opportunity, while Albert and Hermione went to Hagrid's cabin to pick up Norbert.

Hagrid had packed Norbert into a large crate and was ready.

"Plenty of mice for him, and some brandy, enough for him to eat on the way," said Hagrid in a dull voice. "I put his teddy bear in, too, so he won't feel lonely."

There was a tearing sound from the crate, and Albert felt as if the teddy bear's head had been ripped off.

"Goodbye, Norbert!" Hagrid said, wiping his nose. "Mummy will never forget you!"

Hagrid couldn't quiet Norbert, but Albert could. He only heard Albert say to the crate:

"Quiet, Norbert!"

Norbert suddenly became quiet inside the crate. Albert's voice was like an edict to him. The three weeks of training allowed Norbert to roughly understand what Albert meant.

Albert first used the Disillusionment Curse on the box, and then the two of them cast the Floating Charm together, lifted the box off the ground, and walked towards the tower step by step.

"Almost there!" Albert gasped as the two arrived in the corridor on the lower floor of the tallest tower.

There was sudden movement in front of them, and they were so frightened that they almost dropped the boxes in their hands.

Even though they were invisible, Albert and Hermione still quickly retreated into the shadows, looking at two dark figures entangled with each other about ten steps away from them, and a light was shining.

It was Professor McGonagall, wearing a black plaid shirt and a hairnet, tugging at Malfoy's ears. Albert noticed that Malfoy's expression was twisted, obviously uncomfortable.

"Confinement!" Professor McGonagall shouted, "Twenty points deducted from Slytherin! Wandering around in the middle of the night, how dare you, howdareyou!"

"You don't understand, Professor McGonagall, Harry Potter is coming, and he is bringing a fire dragon. They are going to give the fire dragon to Charlie Weasley!"

"Total nonsense! How dare you make up such a lie, Charlie has graduated long ago, and he is now in Romania! Come on, I want to see what Professor Snape does with you, Malfoy!"

After getting rid of Professor McGonagall, the steep spiral staircase leading to the tower seemed to be the easiest journey in the world.He went all the way under the cold night sky to lift the illusion spell.

About 10 minutes later, four broomsticks suddenly landed out of the darkness.

Charlie's friends are all cheerful people.They showed Albert and Hermione several ropes they had tied so they could hang Norbert between them.

They scrambled to tie Norbert safely to the rope, and then Albert and Hermione shook their hands and said many words of thanks to them.

Norbert finally left. Albert held a test tube in his hand, which contained bright red dragon's blood. This was Norbert's selfless gift before he left.

After all, it was Albert who brought him up, so he should not treat his family badly...

This dragon's blood is very precious to Albert. One of the uses of dragon's blood is to make a magic potion that blocks traces!

Albert thought that Harry and Ron didn't send Norbert away, they were just fighting a guerrilla attack. The two of them even held the Marauder's Map in their hands, so they wouldn't be caught anyway.

Unfortunately, God did not fulfill his wish. Just when Albert and Hermione returned to the Gryffindor lounge, Peeves's shout came from the silent corridor:

"Stupid Potter, stupid Weasley, staying up late at night and wandering in the corridors!"

There was a hurried running sound, coupled with Peeves' real-time voice broadcast, and soon Professor McGonagall heard the sound and rushed over, catching Harry and Ron alive.

She looked very angry, her lips turned white, and she said angrily:

"Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasley, I thought you would value the honor of Gryffindor House, but I didn't expect you to be wandering outside at one o'clock in the morning.

You made up a fire dragon out of thin air and tricked Mr. Malfoy into going out at night. I've already caught him. You don't want to trick me like this, do you?

Both of you will be in solitary confinement, and I will inform you when the time comes. Also, fifty points from Gryffindor! "

Albert and Hermione were in the shadows in the corner, and even though they had the Disillusionment Curse, they didn't dare to move.

When Hermione heard that she was going to be deducted 50 points, her heart almost jumped out of her chest. She opened her mouth slightly and pretended to scream, but Albert quickly covered Hermione with his quick hands and eyes.

The wizard who can be a professor is very powerful, and with Albert's immature body phantom spell, it is very likely that he will be discovered, so it is better to be careful.

Having already been deducted so many points, Gryffindor couldn't afford another 100 points.

"Fifty points?!" Harry and Ron exclaimed when they heard Professor McGonagall's words, and Harry felt like he was going to be out of breath.

"Fifty cents each!" Professor McGonagall was unselfish and snorting heavily from her long pointed nose.

She is more strict with the students in her college and does not hesitate to score hundreds of millions of points.

Harry and Ron's faces were wrinkled and extremely bitter.

"Professor, please—"

"You can't..."

They can imagine that tomorrow morning everyone will find that Gryffindor's score has dropped a lot, and then it is at the bottom... No, 100 points have been deducted, and Hufflepuff is still there.

"You don't have to tell me what I can and can't do, Potter. Now, all of you, go to bed. I've never felt so blushing for a Gryffindor."

Harry felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and was so ashamed that his face turned green and red. The only thing he hoped for now was that he could get into some hole and not be discovered.

He was now praying that Albert and Hermione could send Norbert away smoothly without being discovered. He walked back to the dormitory in despair and lay stiffly on the bed, not even noticing that Albert had returned to the dormitory.

Harry's voice came intermittently from behind the curtain, "I'm so stupid, really.

I shouldn't have poked my head in at that time. Peeves discovered me and had a big quarrel with him. Now it was all over. "

The next day, when the Gryffindor students passed the giant hourglass that recorded the House Cup scores, they thought something had gone wrong.How could they suddenly be a hundred points less than they were yesterday?

Then, things slowly spread: Harry Potter, the famous Boy Who Lived, the key player in two Quidditch matches, actually caused Gryffindor to lose so many points.

Harry, who was once one of the most popular and admired people in school, suddenly became a target.

Even the students of Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff didn't have a good look on him, because everyone had always wanted to see Slytherin lose the House Cup.

No matter where Harry went, people pointed at him and did not lower their voices when they said insulting things to him.

On the other hand, whenever he passed by the Slytherins, they always clapped, whistled, and cheered: "Thank you, Bro, you did us a big favor!"

The peak attracts false support, and the dusk witnesses the true believers.

This is generally the case for a well-known figure in the world, such as Grindelwald, Voldemort, and Dumbledore.
