HP meets at Hogwarts

Chapter 32 Fanny's Secret

Two days after the Quidditch match, a news suddenly spread throughout the school. Colin Creevey (Gryffindor first grader) was attacked by the heir to the Chamber of Secrets and was petrified and lying in the ward like a dead man.All of a sudden, the entire first-year freshmen began to move in groups, as if they were afraid that they would be attacked if they acted alone.

Ann didn't say anything about the news that was spreading, but she had been in the greenhouse for a longer time. Principal Dumbledore asked Professor Sprout to mature the mandrake as soon as possible, so she handed over a lot of the care of the magic plants to To Ann and some Hufflepuffs.

On the second Monday of December, Fanny went to Slytherin's dormitory and woke Ann up as usual, "Today is Monday, Ann, wake up, it's Professor Flitwick's Charms class in the morning, and Momo will give you a lesson." You sent a letter from your Uncle Aaron.."

An Teng sat up from the bed, "Huh? He hasn't written to me for a month. Isn't he still studying those animals in Africa? Let me have a look."

Fanny handed the letter to Ann, and stuffed it into the schoolbag on the table, "I put breakfast in your schoolbag for you, it seems that I don't have to pull you up today, I will wait for you in the common room .”

"Enm..." Ann got up from the bed, opened the letter, and walked towards the bathroom.

When Ann went down from the dormitory to the common room, Fanny found that Ann seemed unhappy, with a small face hanging and expressionless.She asked Ann, "Ann, what's the matter?"

Ann replied in a tone full of regret, "Aaron asked me not to go home for Christmas. He wants to transfer and experiment with the animals in the basement of his home. At the same time, expand some climate zones in the basement. Alas, I originally planned to give him one for Christmas. surprise..."

When Fanny heard that Ann was not coming home for the Christmas holidays, she exclaimed, "What? Ann you are not going home for Christmas?"

"En..." Ann bit off a big bite of the bread in his hand, swallowed it and asked strangely, "Why do I feel that you are more surprised than me?"

Fanny calmed down, waved her hand, and replied, "No, it's just me... I won't go back this Christmas, I thought I would spend Christmas alone~ Now you don't go back, so you can spend it with me ..."

Ann nodded and responded, "That's it, but from another perspective, it's not bad if I don't go back for Christmas. Something is just about to mature!"

"What is it?"

"Aha, you'll know when the time comes~" Ann replied, mourning for Aaron in her heart, but it was a pity that she originally planned to go back for Christmas, but now Aaron has no luck.

On Monday night, Ann and Fanny separated at the restaurant door after dinner. Fanny walked along the corridor leading to the Slytherin common room at her usual speed. Zhuan's back disappeared at the gate of the castle.

She immediately turned in the other direction and walked towards the third floor of the castle.When she was approaching the third floor of the castle, she became cautious. She walked quietly along the wall, looking at the movement around her from time to time. When she reached the door of a women's toilet, she pushed the door and walked in.

The toilet was dilapidated and seemed to have been unused for a long time.A trail of white smoke drifted out from a cubicle in the toilet. Fanny walked quickly to the cubicle where the white smoke was floating, and knocked lightly on the door, then knocked twice after a pause.

The door of the compartment opened, and the wooden boards in this compartment and the next compartment were gone, and Hermione was standing in the compartment.There was a crucible on the toilet seat beside her, boiling an unknown pale green potion, which was constantly emitting white smoke.

Seeing that it was Fanny, Hermione asked in surprise, "Fanny, have you got both the horn of the bicorn and the skin of the African tree snake?"

Fanny nodded, and took out a paper package from her robe pocket, "I brought it from home this morning, here you are, but I may have to tell you some bad news later."

Hermione shook her hand as she took the paper bag, and almost dropped the paper bag on the ground. There was a trace of nervousness in her voice, "Did Ann know?"

Fanny turned pale, as if it was a terrible thing, she quickly explained, "No, of course not, don't scare yourself, it's just that Ann won't be going home for Christmas, she received a letter from her uncle in the morning, she Uncle asked her to stay at school."

Hermione breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, but I think we'd better sort out our plan later, so as not to miss anything." Hermione opened the paper bag, carefully checked the materials, and poured them into the cauldron Stir it up.The viscous liquid in the crucible gradually turned dark green and no longer emitted white smoke.

Hermione scooped up a spoonful, took a closer look, then put the spoon in and stirred.She took out a book "Powerful Potion" with a tattered shell from her schoolbag, opened a bookmarked page, read it for a while, and said happily, "The Transformation Potion will be ready in two weeks!"

Fanny looked at the liquid in the cauldron anxiously, raised her eyebrows when she heard Hermione's words, and said happily, "That's great, Hermione, you are really amazing!"

At this time, there was a knock on the compartment door, there was a pause, and there were two more knocks.Fanny opened the door, and outside stood Harry and Ron.

The two quickly entered the compartment. Since a piece of wood was removed, the space between the two compartments was not small, and it was not too crowded for four people to stand in.

Stirring the liquid in the cauldron, Hermione said to the two people who came in, "Fanny just brought over the rest, and there are about two weeks to catch the evidence of Malfoy!"

"Great!" Ron waved his fist aside and said excitedly, "See how awesome he will be then!"

Fanny said nervously, "However, I also have some bad news. Ann won't be home during the Christmas holidays, and her uncle is going to repair the basement at home."

"Huh?" Harry and Ron said in unison.

Hermione said calmly, "Don't worry, let's sort out the plan now to reduce loopholes, and calm down even if we meet Ann."

Hermione began to sort out the plan, "First of all, more than half of the plan has been completed. I got the "Powerful Potion" and two rare materials. The transformation potion will be almost ready in two weeks. And Fanny has already got Pansy. , Goyle, Crabbe's hair." After a pause, she pointed to Ron and Harry, "Harry and Ron, you two will transform into Goyle, Crabbe. I will transform into Pansy , and Fanny will take us into the Slytherin common room. You two go into the boys' dormitory to steal Malfoy's letter."

Fanny added, "There was only one problem with the plan, that is, both Malfoy and Pansy will stay in school. But it can be solved. The day before the potion is ready, I will use reasons to ask them to go to the Astronomy Tower that night to carry out the plan. You know It took almost an hour to go from the dining room to the Astronomy Tower and back to the Slytherin lounge."

The more Fanny said, the more excited she became, "Now there is a new problem, Ann, but Hermione and I are fine. Pansy and I often go together, but Goyle and Crabbe are with us, and it is safe to be Ann." It’s hard to explain it when you see it!”

Ron rubbed his chin and thought hard for a while, but nothing came to his mind.Harry said at the right time, "Maybe we can go in two groups that day. The four of us gather here first and drink the transformation potion. Fanny told me and Ron Slytherin the password for the lounge. Then you two go first , we will follow behind you, so even if Ann sees it, it will be fine. What do you think?"

Fanny's eyes lit up, "Good way! Then there will be no problem!"

Hermione put down the ladle that had been stirring in her hand, thought for a while and nodded, "There seems to be no problem..."

It's just that Hermione thought that Ann was being concealed, so she opened her mouth, hesitated for a while, and asked, "Speaking of Ann, Fanny, I actually don't think I should tell Ann about this...".

Fanny trembled when she heard that, but her tone was very firm, "Remember when I promised to help you? This must be kept secret!"

Ron muttered softly, "You and Ann are really two contrasts. One we tried to pull her in, but she didn't come. The other didn't pull her in, but she came together. They are both Slytherins..."

Both Fanny and Hermione gave Ron a look, but then Fanny said with some excitement, "Although I am a Slytherin, it's because my parents are both Slytherins. They usually work very well." Busy, my grandma is also very strict with me. I played with Langer when I was young. He graduated from Gryffindor! So I also like Gryffindor. And, I am also curious who opened it The Chamber of Secrets? Why did you open it? Who is the heir? Last time Malfoy called Hermione a Mudblood, it was really too much. If he is really the heir, I will definitely participate in the action of arresting him, just like the one on TV. Same! The good guys send all the bad guys to the police station!"

After Fanny finished speaking, justice was shining in her eyes.

"What is a TV?" Ron rubbed his head and asked puzzledly, "What is a police station?"

Harry and Hermione gave Ron a good explanation, during which Fanny looked at her watch, mumbled that it was about time, and hurried away.

A few days later, a notice was posted in the Slytherin common room: In view of the recent unsafe factors in the school, a duel club will be held in the auditorium tomorrow night, and interested students are invited to attend.Demonstrations will be given to students by Professors Lockhart and Snape.

That night, as soon as Ann returned to the dormitory, Fanny stalked her, "Ann, let's go tomorrow night! Where is Professor Lockhart and our dean! The Duel Club sounds great."

As soon as Ann heard Lockhart, red lights started to flash in her heart, and she asked hesitantly, "Lockhart? Can I say no?"

Fanny blinked at Ann, "Of course not..."

At eight o'clock the next evening Ann and Fanny arrived in the hall.The long dining tables in the auditorium disappeared, and a gilded stage appeared along one wall, lit by hundreds of candles floating overhead.The ceiling was once again as black as velvet, and almost all the students from the school came, crowded together, each holding his own wand, and his face was full of excitement.

After a short wait, Lockhart stepped onto the stage, resplendent in his fuchsia robes, surrounded by none other than Snape, still in his usual black.

Lockhart waved for everyone to be quiet, and then shouted: "Come around, come around!" Fanny hurriedly pulled Ann over.

"Can everyone see me? Can everyone hear me? Great! Well, Professor Dumbledore has allowed me to start this little dueling club and train everyone well in case you ever need to defend yourself, Protect yourself in the same way that I have used countless times...For details on this, please see my published work."

Lockhart said, grinning for a while, and then said, "Let me introduce my assistant Professor Snape, he told me that he himself knows a thing or two about duels, and he is also generous I promised to help me with a small demonstration before the class. I said, I don't want to worry you little guys, and I will return your Potions teacher to you intact after I finish demonstrating with him ,do not be afraid!"

"I don't know who will be intact..." Ann couldn't help muttering, and Fanny tugged at her sleeve.

Lockhart and Snape turned to face each other and bowed.At least Lockhart bowed, flailing his hands a lot, and Snape just shook his head impatiently.All the students in the audience fell silent and looked at the two of them.

They then held their respective wands like arrows to their chests. "As you can see, we hold our wands in the normal dueling position," Lockhart said to the silent crowd. "On the count of three, we cast the first spell. Of course, none of us will take The opponent's life."

Ann watched Snape show his teeth, and said in his heart, there is a good show to watch.

The two stood facing each other, and Lockhart began to count down, "One... two... three!" Both men raised their wands violently over their shoulders at the same time.

Snape yelled, "Expelliarmus!" There was a flash of blinding red light, and Lockhart was knocked off his feet.He flew backwards off the stage, hit the wall, and slid down, curled up on the floor.

Malfoy and a few other Slytherins applauded.With a puff, Ann laughed out loud, and was immediately glared at by Fanny.

Ann had no choice but to hold back her laughter, applauding Snape in her heart.

Lockhart staggered to his feet, his hat off, his wavy curls standing on end. "Well, you see!" he said, staggering back onto the stage, "it's a disarming charm, and as you can see, I lost my wand.

Then he smoothed out his hair and raised his voice again, "Yes, Professor Snape, it's a great idea to show the students this trick, but don't mind me saying that, you're going to come here just now My intentions are clear. If I want to stop you, it's a no-brainer. This is the end of the demonstration! Now I'll come among you and divide you into teams of two. Professor Snape, if you'd like to help me give Everyone pair up."

They walk through the crowd, making pairs for everyone.

Ann stood opposite Fanny, eager to try, and said to Fanny, "Come on, Fanny, let's try this, you use it on me first, don't worry, your magic power is not strong, it's okay, I won't Flew out like Lockhart..."

Fanny was still a little hesitant at first, but she nodded when she heard Ann's comfort behind her, "Then get ready! I'm going to shout! One...two..."

Ann grasped the wand in her hand, and slightly bent her knees, in case something happened so she could avoid it flexibly.

"Three! Disarmament!" The wand in Fanny's hand pointed at Ann. There was a faint white light from the tip of her wand. Ann felt as if her wand had been pulled out forcefully. The wand flew out of her hand and fell to the ground. .

"Very good, Fanny!" Ann encouraged Fanny, and took two steps to pick up the wand.

"Next, I'm going to use it on you. You should be mentally prepared. It feels a bit like someone pulled out a wand from your hand! Don't worry!"

Fanny was very happy to be encouraged, "Well, I'm ready," she nodded, motioning for Ann to start.

"Okay, I'm going to start." An encouraged Fanny, "Disarm~"

Fanny's wand flew out of her hand in Ann's direction, and Ann reached out to catch it.

"Wow, Ann, amazing!" Fanny ran to Ann, and Ann looked at the wand in her hand, and sighed, "This is really a good magic!" Ann handed the wand to Fanny.

But the crowd elsewhere in the Hall was not as friendly as Ann and Fanny, and every team that Professor Snape was assigned to fought.

Fanny glanced at the rest of the auditorium, and immediately pulled Ann towards the two of them.Hermione and Miles (one of the Slytherin girls was tall, big and clumsy) were wrestling, and both of their wands fell to the ground.

"Stop!" Ann ran to the two of them and shouted.

Both stopped, and Ann ran up to them and pulled them away, and gave Fanny a look, and Fanny pulled Millis aside.

An pulled Hermione back a few steps, bent down and picked up Hermione's wand, she looked at Hermione worriedly, and asked, "Are you okay?"

Hermione blushed just after the fight. She thought that Ann would say that she was irrational or why she was fighting with Millis, but she didn't expect that Ann's first sentence was to worry about herself.She took the wand from Ann and shook her head.

"Is it really okay?" Ann glanced at Hermione up and down, and found that there was nothing serious about her except for her messy clothes and hair. Ann pointed to the wand in Hermione's hand, "Next time, remember the magic wand in the wizard's hand." The wand is the best weapon, don't lose it, and," Ann lowered her voice, "you won't be able to use your strengths at all in hand-to-hand combat with people with low IQs. Next time, if you want to solve something, use your strengths Just hit the opponent hard!"

Hermione asked Ann in surprise, "You don't ask me why?"

Ann shrugged, glanced at other places in the auditorium, and replied, "Almost every team assigned by Professor Snape has fought. I guess he must have said something to Millis?"

When Hermione was about to say something, Professor Lockhart's voice rang out loudly.Most people's eyes were drawn to it.
