[HP] Aunt of the Savior

Chapter 178 I Will

Lupine stared at the name, and for a moment, some of the previous doubts seemed to have found the answer.He stood up abruptly, grabbed the map in front of him, but stopped before walking out of the office.

What reason could he use to pursue, to question, to get to the bottom of this discovery?Especially when he was not surprised to see that name and Jody's name appearing on the map together.

The two small ink dots marked with the names of Jody Potter and Severus Snape were close together, and through the two names on the Marauder's Map, Lupine seemed to see the old man in Hogwarts again. A scene that can often be seen in Ci's classroom.That used to make Lupine very envious: even when they didn't do anything, you could feel the intimacy and rapport that existed between those two people, who seemed to be meant to be together all the time.

forget it!Lupine thought to himself mockingly, and decided to give up digging into the question of why Jody, who was still secretly wanted by the Ministry of Magic, was at Hogwarts.What's more, even if he rushed to the cellar to question Snape now, he couldn't get any real answers when Snape didn't want to confess.Think about what Jody and Snape did back then, they fooled almost everyone!

Thinking of this, Lupine slowly walked back to his desk and spread out the map again.He silently reminded himself in his heart that what should be paid more attention to now is not Jody who was with Snape, but Harry.

—Harry and his friends, why were they in the Slytherin common room with Draco Malfoy?

It never occurred to Lupine that Hermione and Harry could manage to make a potion as complex as Polyjuice Potion.And for Draco Malfoy, the three Slytherins who walked into the Slytherin common room with him were Theodore Nott, Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle .

"I can't believe that you can stay in the auditorium and eat all the time, and you're still being stopped by that Weasley, it's so embarrassing." Draco complained in a low voice, and at the same time frowned and glanced aside Knott.

Nott-Neville was so nervous that his stomach twisted into a ball at this moment, he subconsciously avoided Draco's sight, walked to the side without saying anything and sat down on the carved armchair, his eyes seemed to freeze Staring at the flames dancing in the fireplace not far away.

Draco withdrew his gaze, motioned Gore-Harry and Crabbe-Ron to sit on the two empty chairs on the other side, and stood in front of them, maintaining a condescending demeanor, and lowered his voice: " Have you forgotten what I reminded you?"

"Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, Harry and Ron had no idea what Malfoy was talking about.

"Uh, you mean..." Harry blinked dully.

"Can you remember long?! I mean, you shouldn't have been wandering around in the corridor just now!" Harry and Ron were surprised to find that Malfoy looked a little out of breath, and there were even a few traces of light on his pale face. A faint blush. "It's safer for you to stay with me all the time, remember what you promised me?"

"Oh... yes, but... that's not a big deal, is it?" Harry racked his brains, wondering how he could bring the conversation to the Chamber of Secrets more naturally.He was worried that his reaction just now would arouse Malfoy's suspicion, but now it seems that Crabbe and Goyle are often so slow and forgetful. "I mean...we're purebloods..."

"Yeah, we'll be fine." Ron tried to imitate Crabbe and scratched his hair.

Draco narrowed his eyes suddenly, "Yes... of course." He coughed lightly, "Come with me, I want to show you something."

Harry and Ron took advantage of Malfoy's back to themselves and glanced at Neville who was on the side to express comfort, and then followed Malfoy into the Slytherin dormitory.

Slytherin's dormitory is very different from Gryffindor's. It is not arranged in a spiraling manner like in the Gryffindor tower.Its corridors looked particularly dark and cold, and there were more rooms than in Gryffindor's tower. To Harry and Ron's envy, Malfoy had his own bedroom.He led them into the room marked with Malfoy's nameplate, which was large and spacious, with a small living room attached.

"Sit down!" Malfoy said.

But just as Harry and Ron sat down on the sofa, Malfoy suddenly turned around, drew out his wand, and pointed it at them.

"You're not Crabbe, and you're not Goyle." Malfoy's voice was still aggressive, but it sounded a little trembling. "Who the hell are you guys?"

He pointed his wand at Harry and Ron nervously, as if he was about to wave his wand at any moment to cast a jinx on them.

Harry and Ron bounced off the sofa almost at the same time, and they unanimously cast the disarming spell they had just learned recently: "Disarm!"

But Draco had cast the spell faster than them, and he and Ron hit each other at the same time, and they both fell in opposite directions at the same time, and Harry's spell missed.

"All petrified!" Before Draco picked up his wand, Harry hastily added another spell.

"Who the hell are you?!" Draco rolled on the ground, the spell grazed his upper abdomen, the petrification spell was only half effective, but that was enough to stop Draco from moving.He scratched the carpet in vain, and after making sure that he really couldn't catch the wand, he panted and turned his head, staring fiercely at the attacker in front of him with those gray eyes.

At this moment, Ron, who had just been knocked out, rubbed his stomach and got up, picking up his wand.

Draco stared at the actions of the fake Crabbe, and when he saw the old wand with unicorn hair showing, he suddenly let out a contemptuous sneer: "Weasley?"

Ron's movements were as stiff as if he had also been petrified, and he blushed against Crabbe's face.

Draco turned to face his fake Goyle with his wand, and frowned: "Aha, Saint Potter? Polyjuice Potion, huh?" He suddenly raised his mouth and smiled: "If I take today's matter Tell Professor Snape how he will punish you?"

Harry pursed his lips together—a very Snape look.Although Malfoy's threat sounds ridiculous (after all, they didn't admit it, he has no actual evidence), but he knew very well that if Professor Snape knew that he had the audacity to secretly brew such a dangerous potion as Polyjuice Potion, he would still be safe. Among them, he tried out the improved method he used to observe Professor Snape brewing the potion without authorization, so his end would definitely be quite miserable.

"I think you know why I came to you, Malfoy." Harry didn't withdraw his wand, his voice was firm. "We still had some things to say in the ward of the school hospital last time."

Draco's face became ugly.His arrogance disappeared, replaced by an unnaturally suppressed uneasiness: "If you think you can change it by relying on the Quidditch match..."

"Harry saved your life!" Ron said angrily.

This sentence undoubtedly dealt a considerable blow to Draco, and he looked even more lethargic. "but……"

"Listen, Malfoy." Harry said, taking advantage of the victory, "I don't need your gratitude, I don't need your reward, I just want to know the truth of the matter, that day Dobby—"

Draco raised his head sharply, interrupting Harry, he seemed to have made up his mind, and looked at Harry with an expression Harry had never seen before: "Well, since you must know , I can tell you." He reluctantly twisted the corner of his mouth, "For the sake of helping Malfoy."

Harry and Ron looked at Malfoy in surprise.Although they always wanted to dig out the truth from Malfoy's mouth, they didn't expect Malfoy to agree so easily.Did he really intend to tell the truth?

But Draco's next words dispelled their suspicions.He took a deep breath and said, "However, I want you to swear that you will never tell anyone about this matter until the Chamber of Secrets is completely settled-with an unbreakable oath."

There was a provocative look in Draco's eyes when Harry would not neglect to make this condition.After a long silence, he finally nodded stiffly. "Can."

"Harry!" Ron looked at Harry disapprovingly. "It's dangerous, you know you'll die if you break your unbreakable oath!"

But Harry turned his head and said firmly to Ron, "Yes, I know, but this is the only way to make Malfoy tell the truth." He emphasized the word truth.

"But Harry..." Ron blushed anxiously. "This is too risky!"

"Are we going to continue to let that monster run rampant in Hogwarts? Petrification incidents keep happening, if this continues, Hogwarts will be closed! I heard Professor McGonagall and Professor Sprout at noon today Said it! Look at Hagrid's worried look today!" Harry said firmly, "And as long as I don't break my oath, I'll be fine. Ron, you come to be a witness."

Ron put Crabbe's face against his face for the first time, showing a matching stupid look.His lips parted and then closed, before finally nodding resignedly. "...well..." he muttered in a low voice, "I must be crazy to agree to your request..."

"Thank you." Harry nodded, turning to look at Draco. "Can i do it now?"

"Brave Gryffindor! Great Saint Potter!" Draco whispered, but his tone seemed less malicious than usual.He didn't even ask Harry to break the spell, but he offered his right hand to Harry, with a look of relief on his face.

Harry stepped forward, sat down on the rug in front of Draco, and took his hand.Ron held his wand in his hand, knelt between the two of them, and tapped his wand on their clasped hands.

"Draco Malfoy, are you willing to tell Harry Potter all the truth you know about the opening of the Chamber of Secrets and the Heir of Slytherin?"

"I do." A bright tongue of flame, with green eyes and gray eyes, emerged from the tip of Ron's wand.

"Harry Potter, are you willing not to disclose the connection between the opening of the Chamber of Secrets and the Malfoy family to anyone else, and help him until the danger of the Chamber of Secrets is completely eliminated?"

Draco's words were obviously not exactly what they had said at the beginning.Ron glanced at Malfoy in surprise, then at Harry, his hand shaking his wand.

But Harry kept staring at Draco, and said the answer without blinking: "I do."

Another tongue of flame burst from the tip of the wand.Watching the two tongues of flame finally wrap around their hands, Ron let out a whimper that was almost desperate. He was terrified by the dangerous oath he had witnessed, and the wand rolled out of his hand and fell into the air. on the carpet.

"Okay, then can you rest assured?" Harry calmly let go of Malfoy's hand.

"Let go of me first." Draco pouted at his petrified legs.

"The spell stops immediately." Harry waved his wand, breaking the petrification spell for Draco.

Draco picked up his wand, sat back on the sofa, and raised his chin to signal to Harry that they should also sit down and talk.Once he got rid of the embarrassing situation just now, Draco seemed to have returned to his usual arrogant young master, but his face now looked terrible.He glanced at Ron, who sat down next to Harry, wand gripped tightly, but said nothing in the end.

Harry asked the question directly to the most crucial point. "Malfoy, did you open the chamber of secrets this time?"

"Yes, it's me." Draco's face was as pale as a ghost. "But it's not me..."

Ron was stunned by Draco's answer, and he asked impatiently, "What are you talking about?"

Draco ignored Ron's question. He turned around, walked to his bed, and took out a diary with a black cover that looked tattered from under the pillow, which did not match the exquisiteness and magnificence of this room at all. Book. "That's what you want to know... About the secret room, I know it from here, no, maybe I should say..."

He handed the diary to Harry, and seemed to be slowly thinking about how to word it: "It took the initiative to let me know."
