A slender and handsome boy volunteered.

Argus recognized the boy’s identity at a glance.

Cedric Diggory!

The best student in Hufflepuff College. If it weren’t for Argus, he would probably be the best student in Hogwarts.

Otherwise, he would not have been selected in the Triwizard Tournament.

Many people call him the Little Prince of Hufflepuff.

He is Professor McGonagall’s favorite disciple, and his Transfiguration is extremely famous throughout Hogwarts.

He is ready to take over the position of prefect as soon as the Hufflepuff prefect graduates.

“Mr. Grindelwald, I will be responsible for the statistics of Hufflepuff.”

“Then I’ll trouble you, Mr. Diggory!”

Argus still has a good impression of this top student of Hufflepuff.

The other party is top-notch in both strength and behavior.

There was a comment about him in the original book: “He has everything people expect from students at Hogwarts.”

Although this title is probably going to be taken away by himself.

But it still does not hinder Cedric’s own excellence.

With the help of Cedric and the cooperation of Hermione and others, the list of members of the four colleges came out quickly.

About ten minutes later, Percy and Penelope also rushed back.

They brought more than 20 young wizards with them.

After counting them according to the college, Argus handed the list to an Auror.

Other Aurors escorted them back to Hogwarts School.

At the school gate, Professor McGonagall was walking around anxiously.

Seeing Argus returning with a large group of students, he trotted all the way.

“Merlin, you are finally back.”

“Are you not injured?”

“No, Professor McGonagall! Several Aurors protected us very well.” Argus shook his head and took out the draft of the previously counted list.

“Professor, I have only summoned some members. The rest should still be in Hogsmeade. I have asked the Auror to give Professor Flitwick a copy of the list.”

“You can compare this with the list of members who left to see if there are any omissions.”

“Mr. Grindelwald, you have helped us a lot this time!” Professor McGonagall took the list with surprise.

Although the four colleges are mixed together, it is much better than the previous confusion.

“Mr. Filch, please find the list of people who left this time.”

Turning to look at Argus, with apology in his eyes.

“Mr. Grindelwald, please take them back to the common room.”

“Severus and Felius are out to search for young wizards in Hogsmeade.”

“There are only Pomona and I left in Hogwarts. I will watch at the door… Pomona is checking in the castle…”

“I understand, Professor McGonagall, don’t worry, I will send my classmates to the common room safely.”

Argus responded with a smile, as if he didn’t care about it at all.

Professor McGonagall’s eyes were full of admiration.

The whole thing lasted until noon.

After the investigation by the Hogwarts professors and Aurors, it was initially determined that Sirius was hiding or lurking in another place.

The little wizards of Hogwarts also returned to school under the escort of professors and Aurors.

At lunch time, many little wizards were still talking about it.

Some of them were about Sirius, and some were just their feelings about going out to play.

“Honeydukes is great! But I don’t think it’s as interesting as Zonko’s Joke Shop!”

“It’s a pity we didn’t go to the Shrieking Shack, which is said to be the most haunted place!”

“Do you think Sirius sneaked into Hogwarts? Or is he still hiding in Hogsmeade?”

“I don’t know. I don’t think he’s in Hogsmeade. The professors and Aurors have searched so many times. If he was in Hogsmeade, he would have been found long ago!”

“Merlin’s one-piece stockings! How could the Ministry of Magic let such a horrible murderer escape from Azkaban!”

“…”

Just as everyone was discussing what happened in Hogsmeade this morning, Dumbledore quietly stood on the podium of the professor’s chair.

He coughed twice and instantly attracted everyone’s attention.

Professor McGonagall knocked on the glass in front of her: “Little wizards, be quiet!”

Dumbledore’s expression was serious: “I’m sure everyone knows something about what happened in the wizarding world during this period.”

“I assure you here that Hogwarts will do its best to protect you.”

“For everyone’s safety, Hogwarts will impose martial law on the castle during this period.”

“The heads of each college will be responsible for communicating with the dean of the college to arrange relevant matters.”

When Argus, who was having a meal, heard this, his expression did not change.

On the contrary, Lupin, who was sitting in the professor’s seat, had a look of anxiety in his eyes.

He didn’tI believe that the few secret passages left in my mind will make me know the terrain of Hogwarts better than the headmaster who has been in Hogwarts for decades.

If the castle is really under martial law and he can’t even get out, what should Sirius do!

Wouldn’t he starve to death if he stayed in the Shrieking Shack all day?

Or should he rely on himself to transform into an Animagus form to find food?

The little wizards below were chattering and making a mess.

Last school year, Hogwarts had martial law in response to the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets incident.

As a result, it has only been a short time since martial law was imposed again!

Most students come here to attend classes, how can they tolerate this kind of life.

They are increasingly dissatisfied with Dumbledore’s requirements.

On the podium, Dumbledore raised his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.

“In the near future, the ghosts and murals of the castle will always monitor the abnormalities in the castle.”

“This task will be entrusted to Mr. Filch.”

Filch limped to his feet, and his fierce eyes swept over the little wizards below the stage.

Only when he saw Argus did his eyes soften a little.

“The prefects of each college should count as soon as possible and discuss with the dean of this college.”

“It will be completed this afternoon.”

“Okay, students, continue to enjoy your lunch. I hope I didn’t disturb your interest in eating.”

After Dumbledore finished speaking, he walked towards his headmaster’s office without even eating.

The prefects of each college stuffed a few mouthfuls and went to their respective colleges to count the number.

This list is not difficult to count. It only requires the total number of people and the number of people in each grade, as well as the number of men and women in each grade.

Then hand it over to the dean of this college.

Argus didn’t care about these, and handed it to Alexia and the others generously.

In the blink of an eye, it was night.

With the heavy sound of the castle gate closing, Hogwarts gradually fell into silence.
