Hogwarts lazy snake

Everyone ran all the way to Madam Pomfrey's infirmary. The portraits in the corridor were startled by the hasty movement and poked their heads out to see what was going on. Some were even asking loudly, but no one had time to pay attention.

When they arrived at the infirmary door, Ginny rushed in eagerly.

Madam Pomfrey was examining Harry. Seeing a group of people rushing in, she frowned and said, "You kids, be quiet! This is the infirmary, not the Quidditch field!"

Ginny ignored Madam Pomfrey's reprimand. She ran to Harry's bed and saw Harry lying on the bed with a pale face, as if he was about to attack someone with a wand. His eyes were filled with panic and his mouth was slightly open.

Ginny burst into tears when she saw this scene: "Harry, what's wrong with you? Wake up!"

Hermione and Ron, who had experienced such scenes several times before, immediately asked Madam Pomfrey if there was any potion that could cure petrification.

Just then, Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall hurried over.

Seeing this, Ron hurried forward and was about to ask about the potion to remove the petrification, but Professor McGonagall said first: "There are no mature mandrakes in the school. We will have to wait for a while." There was helplessness in her tone, her brows were furrowed, and her eyes were full of worry.

Hermione then asked, "Professor McGonagall, does Professor Snape have any remaining potions?"

Dumbledore shook his head slightly, his tone calm and serious: "If Severus has it, he will definitely take it out." He looked at Harry deeply, and the worry in his eyes became more and more intense.

After hearing what Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall said, Ginny, Ron and Hermione's faces were instantly filled with disappointment and worry.

They all remembered clearly that when Mrs. Norris was petrified, the professor and the headmaster had emphasized that the longer the petrification time, the greater the danger. Every second that passed seemed to mercilessly push Harry one step further into danger.

At this moment, Neville suddenly had an idea and remembered that it was Fawkes' tears that restored Hermione and Ron to their original state after they were petrified by the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets monster last night.

He hurriedly said to Dumbledore: "Principal Dumbledore, Hermione and Ron were petrified by the monster in Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets last night. It was Fawkes! It was Fawkes' tears that restored them. Can you find Fawkes and save Harry like you did last night?"

Dumbledore slowly walked to the bedside, looked at Harry, who seemed to be fighting some invisible enemy and preparing to attack, and noticed his bare feet, and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.

He looked at Neville and soothed him gently, "Mr. Longbottom, I understand how you feel at the moment. But Fawkes began to regenerate after helping you last night. As you know, Fawkes is a phoenix, and it takes a certain amount of time to regenerate. So, unfortunately, it can't come to help Harry now."

Hermione and Ron, who had been looking at Dumbledore excitedly with hope ignited by Neville's proposal, felt their emotions like a roller coaster after hearing these words, first soaring to the peak and then plummeting to the bottom.

At this moment, Hagrid suddenly rushed into the school infirmary crying and shouting. His huge body brought up a gust of wind, and his eyes were full of fear and sadness.

Seeing Harry's petrified appearance, his cries became even louder: "Harry! Oh my God, what happened?"

Madam Pomfrey was so angry at his disturbance that she stamped her feet: "Hagrid, be quiet! This is the infirmary!"

Hagrid ignored Madam Pomfrey's scolding. He turned to Dumbledore and asked with tears on his face: "Headmaster, what should we do with Harry? We can't just watch him like this!"

His voice was tearful and his eyes were full of helplessness and worry for Harry.

Dumbledore looked at Hagrid with a serious look in his eyes. He patted Hagrid on the shoulder, trying to calm him down: "Hagrid, we are all very worried about Harry, but now we need to stay calm so that we can better think of a way to save him."

Hagrid tried hard to control his emotions. His broad shoulders were still shaking. Huge tears rolled down his eyes and fell to the ground. "Headmaster, we must save Harry. He is like one of my relatives."

Dumbledore nodded. "We won't give up, but the situation is a bit tricky right now. The school doesn't have mature mandrakes, and Fawkes is still in the regeneration stage. We need to find other ways."

Because there was no way to make Harry recover immediately, he was driven out of the school infirmary by Madam Pomfrey.

In the principal's office, Horn looked at Fox who was combing his feathers. He didn't look like he was reborn from the fire at all.

Dumbledore looked at Horn in front of him and said: Horn, do you know something?

"I suspect that Voldemort split his soul to create Horcruxes in order to achieve his desire for immortality," said Horn.

Horn thought about this answer for a long time and made up his mind to tell Dumbledore about it.

If Horn was still an ordinary wizard from the Nicholas family who suddenly awakened magic, he would never tell Dumbledore all this until his death.

Then stay in Hogwarts until graduation and then travel around the world to explore this magical world.

But venting himself seemed like an invisible hand was fiddling with some things and developments in Horn's path.

In fact, Horn was afraid of Dumbledore and Snape, the two masters of Legilimency, for many reasons at first, but later he was relieved when he found that they seemed unable to find the information in his brain.

It was as if Horn felt Dumbledore's Legilimency the first time he was treated by Dumbledore with his Patronus. However, Horn clearly felt that the other party had failed.

Horn thought that this was probably because his Yuanshen was transforming into Yangshen.

After hearing Horn's words, Dumbledore was silent for a while and then immediately asked, "Your consciousness says that Tom is Voldemort who split his soul and made Horcruxes to achieve his desires?"

"Yes, I based it on his resurrection from the dead..."

At the same time, on the other side.

"Hermione, what do you think Headmaster Dumbledore wants to do by keeping Horn here? Do you think Dumbledore will discover Horn's alchemical puppet?" Ron was worried about both Harry and Horn at this time.

After hearing what Ron said, Hermione looked at Ron as if he were an idiot.

Seeing Hermione like this, Ron felt offended, so he said loudly: "Did I say anything wrong? Neville, why are you pulling me? I didn't say anything wrong!"

Neville whispered beside Ron: "You know, Headmaster Dumbledore and Horn's teacher are close friends, and their alchemy levels are also very high..."

Neville stopped talking at this point.

Ron didn't need Neville to continue talking. He slapped his forehead and said, "That means Dumbledore already knew about Horn's situation."

"If we could find that monster and tell Headmaster Dumbledore, we would definitely kill that damn monster." Ron said fiercely as he thought about what had happened during this period of time.

"I think I might know..."
