Chapter 119: The Secret Hand
After returning from the magical realm, it was already a little late, and dinner had just begun.
Under the gaze of everyone in the auditorium, Canaan slowly walked to the Ravenclaw seat.
However, Canaan was a little puzzled, he felt that everyone's eyes seemed to be a little strange, and some people even showed gloating looks.
"Very well, so that our people are all together, let's go!" Dumbledore glanced at Canaan and gave orders from the podium.
"Why did you come back so late, Professor McGonagall's face was very ugly just now, she knew that you weren't at school all day!" Roger said anxiously in Canaan's ear.
Leaving the school without permission was a very serious matter, and he was afraid that Canaan would be expelled from Hogwarts because of it.
"Canaan, not just Professor McGonagall, everyone in the whole school seems to know that you're not at school, and Dumbledore was talking about it. Alita said with a frown.
"What did Dumbledore say?" Canaan raised an eyebrow.
"He said you should be in the toilet or in some secret room to plot your new book, but you just happened to forget about dinner time. Roger said.
Canaan smiled when he heard this, and it did look a lot like Dumbledore's speech.
"Canaan, you'd better be careful. Alita kindly reminded that she always felt that this matter was not simple.
At this time, Professor McGonagall walked quickly to Canaan's side, "Brian, I'll stop at my office after dinner. ”
Looking at the back of Professor McGonagall leaving, Roger said uneasily: "It's miserable, the professor's face is so ugly, does she want to talk to you about dropping out?" ”
"Don't worry, Roger, it's not that serious, I'll take care of it. Canaan reassured, then turned to look at Dumbledore on the podium with a smile.
After a sumptuous dinner, Canaan went to the second floor of the castle alone, where Professor McGonagall's office was on the edge of the hallway, a small study with little space.
"Professor, I'm here. Canaan gently pushed open the door to the room and found Professor McGonagall grading homework at her desk.
Professor McGonagall put down the quill in her hand, lifted her glasses, and looked at Canaan with amber eyes, "Find a place to sit down, I have something I want to talk to you about." ”
She simply cleaned up the table top and closed the curtains around the arched window.
"Would you like to have something?"
"It's okay, you seem to be in the wrong mood. ”
"If it weren't for the fact that you left school without permission, I think I would have been in a better mood. Professor McGonagall prepared a glass of warm milk for Canaan.
"Professor, I'm so sorry about this. Canaan took the milk and confessed.
"Well, Canaan, Dumbledore has explained to me about leaving school without permission, and he said that you have a mission in the wizarding world, and he wants me to be more lenient with you, although I don't know where you have been today. ”
"I've always thought you were a very assertive child, but what happened today wasn't easy, and I need to give you a heads up. At this, Professor McGonagall's face became serious.
"You're saying someone is targeting me?" Canaan frowned.
Professor McGonagall nodded, "Bloodline discrimination in the wizarding world has always existed, and many pure-bloods in England are still hostile to Muggle-born wizards. The news of your departure became well-known in just one afternoon, and during this time our professors received many anonymous letters. ”
"Those purebloods from the Snake Courtyard?"
"It's not just Slytherin, it's a bit of it in every house. Professor McGonagall paused, her face confused, "I wasn't going to give you the names of these people, but Dumbledore said you'd take care of it. ”
"You should trust Dumbledore, and I can find out if you don't say so. Canaan said with a smile, but the voice revealed fiercely.
He suddenly felt that he had been pretending to be a good person for a long time, and someone was secretly dealing with him, or this disgusting method.
Professor McGonagall looked at Canaan, pursed her lips, and finally said slowly, "Pete Rozier, pure-blood. He is the mastermind of the event, as well as the prefect of Slytherin and the president of the male student council, and his father was killed before the mystery man was wrecked. ”
"His father was a Death Eater?"
"No, not everyone in the pure-blood family agrees with Voldemort's theory, like the Longbottom family, oh, I really shouldn't have said that. Speaking of this, Professor McGonagall looked reminiscing, paused, and then continued: "The Rozier family also has a very harsh blood discrimination, when the mysterious people caused a riot in England, and their family organized a large number of wizards to resist. ”
"His father died in that war, but at the same time, the mysterious people also suffered heavy losses, which gave us a chance to breathe. Because of this, the Ministry of Magic and many of the surviving pure-blood families have always remembered his father's kindness. ”
Canaan nodded, knowing that Professor McGonagall was reminding him that Pete Rozier's network was complex and needed to be tread carefully.
Professor McGonagall thought for a moment and continued, "There's one more thing I want to tell you. Today Dumbledore received a warning letter from the Ministry of Magic that a student had brought dangerous pets into the school, and someone from the Ministry of Magic would send someone to check the matter tomorrow. ”
"They're really well prepared, one ring after the other. After hearing this, Canaan sneered.
This Pete Rozier is worthy of being from the Snake Courtyard, and his calculating methods are like poisonous snakes, which will come out and bite people at some point.
"But don't worry, Dumbledore and I will be there to testify to you, and no one can kick Pikachu out of Hogwarts, including you, Canaan!" Professor McGonagall looked at him and promised solemnly.
"Thank you, Professor. "Canaan's sincere thanks. He knew that not all professors would dare to confront the Ministry, and he could feel Professor McGonagall's determination to protect his students.
Coming out of the office on the second floor, Canaan went straight to the Room of Requirement.
Walking into the room, he saw Will practicing various spells on the dummy.
It was a room dedicated to the practice of spells, and Canaan would come here at night to practice magic.
"Blaine, you're here. Will immediately put down his wand and stepped forward respectfully.
Since he took refuge in Canaan, he has challenged Canaan many times, but each time he was quickly defeated by Canaan's strong strength, and now he can't have a little dissent.
"Will, I need you to do me a favor and find Pete Rozier from Slytherin House and take refuge in him. Canaan said quickly.
The relationship between Will and him has never been revealed, and in the eyes of the outside world, their relationship is not harmonious. So Will is perfect for breaking into the enemy's interior.
"Rozier? I've heard of this man, and many of the senior students of the four houses have taken up his fray, and he is a very ambitious fellow. However, they generally do not accept new students in the lower grades. Although Will didn't know why Canaan had asked him to join others, he still said with some concern.
"They're trying to figure out how to deal with me at the moment, you just have to show your displeasure with me, and I'm sure Rozier will take you. ”
"I see what you mean, I'll do it. Will nodded heavily. At the same time, the heart rose to teach this Rozier a hard lesson, and to show his ability in front of Canaan.
......
Early the next morning, in the principal's room.
"Albus, the prefects of the four houses came to report to me just now, and each of them has a few less fifth-year students. I searched all over the dormitories, classrooms, and libraries, and I don't know where they went. Professor McGonagall hurriedly reported.
"Are they all part of Rozier's little gang?" Dumbledore asked unhurriedly, standing up.
"They are usually very close to Rozier, could it be that Canaan did this?" exclaimed Professor McGonagall.
"It's him, Minerva, don't worry, that kid is measured, I think the missing person is probably no longer in school now, and may still be sleeping in his own home." Dumbledore laughed.
"In your own home? How did the kid do that, he couldn't apparition at Hogwarts. Professor McGonagall couldn't believe it.
"That kid isn't as simple as you think. Dumbledore smiled, then squinted his eyes and muttered, "Perhaps, this is just the beginning!"
