The Chinese girl from Hufflepuff is both timid and brave

Chapter 426 Current Status of the Train

The further they walked, the colder they felt. Sun Zhu ran straight to Box No. 1, following the little bird she had just called back.

Of the dozen or so class leaders originally on board, ten would act as guardian angels to guard the compartments, and the rest, accompanied by other senior "volunteers", were reinforcing the glass and rescuing lone students.

The six prefects and two student union presidents from the first two carriages went to the cockpit and the conductor's lounge to drive away the endless stream of Dementors, leaving the prefects' compartment empty.

She glanced at the conductor's lounge, which seemed to be reinforced by Aurors, and was unsure: "Bird, help me go check on Ced and ask him how he is doing."

They returned to the only locked compartment - all the people in the other compartments in the first carriage were placed in compartments 6 and 7 by Mr. Lupin, except for compartment 3 where someone was still there.

She pushed the door hard and heard a vigilant and nervous voice: "Who is it?"

"Karina, it's me!"

The door slammed open and Karina's red face appeared in front of her.

"Zhu, great, you're here! Woohoo, there were so many ugly black things outside just now, I was scared to death. I was with these two juniors and didn't dare go anywhere! Are they all gone now?"

Only then did Sun Zhu see that Ginny and Colin were huddled in a corner, shivering. Next to them was a silver-white sheep, curled up with its limbs, squatting not far from them.

Three people and a sheep, they all look pitiful.

Sun Zhu held his forehead with his hand and smiled: "If someone didn't know, they would think something happened to you. Didn't you drive away the Dementors? You should be more confident!"

"Wow, really? I'm so useless. I was originally with Angelina and the Weasley twins... but I don't know what happened, we were separated by those things, and I almost couldn't summon my lamb! Luckily, I hid here with them, so nothing serious happened."

"Yes, you are great, and you protected them." She blew warm air into her palms, "Believe me, your defense against the dark arts will definitely get an O in the OWLs!"

Karina covered her face and nodded: "But it's too cold, your hands are so cold! Let me warm them for you!"

"I want to check out the situation ahead. I wonder when the other Aurors will arrive." She frowned. "Normally, after receiving the situation, they can use Apparition to get here in the blink of an eye..."

A large bird suddenly appeared in front of her, and Cedric's tired and slightly anxious voice came: "Bamboo, I'm glad to know that you are okay. We have 10 students and 2 Aurors here now. The conductor and driver was attacked by the Dementors and has been unconscious. It is now in automatic driving mode. What's worse is that Captain Shacklebolt just told us that he found an anti-Apparition spell set up here. Although it is not as strong as the one in Hogwarts, it is also very troublesome. But don't worry, the Dementors have been repelled by us. Although they are still around, they dare not get close anymore."

Sun Zhu took a deep breath, but was choked by the cold air he inhaled: "Ahem... I was wondering why it's been half an hour and the help hasn't arrived yet. There are not many adult wizards on this special train. If Professor Lupin and the two Aurors are not here, the situation will be even worse."

"Bamboo..." Ginny's weak voice came, "Are my brothers also in front?"

"Ron is in compartment 7 at the back. I'll take you there. I guess Captain Shacklebolt must have found a way to isolate and protect the first compartment. Apart from the cold, there shouldn't be any other danger here. I'll take you to meet up with them."

Ginny pursed her lips, her eyes full of self-blame: "I shouldn't have been there to enjoy the scenery, otherwise Fred and the others wouldn't have come out to look for me, they wouldn't have..."

"No, blame me. I shouldn't have taken pictures there. If I hadn't done that, you would have gone back a long time ago, and Lucy wouldn't have encountered those monsters..." Colin, who had been silent the whole time, also began to sob softly, "I can't help at all."

Sun Zhu was immediately overwhelmed, while Karina yelled, "Shut up! You are crying! Didn't Cedric say that they are all fine? It's just that the conductor fainted! Listen to Zhu, let's go over and meet up now!"

Sun Zhu was also startled. Seeing Ginny and Colin were both stunned, he still obediently followed Karina and walked out slowly.

"Zhu, don't worry, they will definitely be able to solve the problem. I heard that this kind of monster can't kill people directly, it can only torture people to the point where they would rather die than live!"

"...Karina, you are really good at comforting people." Sun Zhu followed hesitantly, "But you are right, Dementors are mental attacks, they are not in much danger for the time being."

"Why would they attack this train?"

"There must be a powerful dark wizard behind this. Dementors don't know any anti-Apparition spells. They may just want to harm the students because we are the future of the wizarding world."

"Host, look." Tongzi reminded, "The silver wolf is coming."

Sun Zhu narrowed his eyes and heard Lupin's voice coming from the wolf's mouth: "Just now Kingsley sent his Patronus to inform me of the situation inside. Come back immediately and we will discuss how to bring Tonks here."

Sun Zhu was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and pushed Jinni's back: "Hurry up, we have to go pick up the senior immediately!"

"Senior Tonks?" Carina turned around. "Didn't you say that you can't Apparate?"

"Stupid, Senior Tonks is a natural Metamorphmagus, she can transform into anyone and any animal!"

Carina ran excitedly, the sound of footsteps echoing in the carriage. Lupin saw them from afar and smiled gently: "Merlin bless you, you are all okay. You must be frozen, it won't be so cold if you get together."

Fina stood up: "Zhu, Karina, give me a cup of hot water."

Ginny was pulled away by Ron, and Harry looked around, and finally said to the cowering Colin: "You, are you okay?"

Colin instantly forgot all his fear and pointed his chin, leaving a residual image.

"I have contacted the people in the last two carriages. There are no targets that the Dementors are attacking. More than a hundred people are fine, but a dozen of them are very cold. We need to solve this problem quickly and send them to St. Mungo's." Lupin said.

Sun Zhu felt relieved and looked out the window: "When Senior Sister Tonks comes, there will definitely be a way."
