On the way to Professor McGonagall's office, neither spoke. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Walking through the corridors of Hogwarts at midnight requires so much attention, as they need to carefully identify the staircase and door portraits that usually appear by accident, and be careful not to wake up the bronze statues of the knight guards in the foyer, which are life-size and modeled after the wizarding knights who attacked the elves in the 17th century.

The magic has been welded for too long, and the seams at the joints become larger, making a piercing "click" sound when it moves slightly.

Vio often heard the statues talking loudly as they walked past their classrooms, complaining that Filch was always not in time to buy them the latest polish for the bronze statues.

However, as they turn into the lecture hall near the Gryffindor Tower, Peeves, a mischievous ghost from an unaffiliated house, suddenly appears with a bag of chalk.

He leaned against the chandelier in the air and giggled and threw chalk at them—"Students, running down the hallway in the middle of the night will be expelled from the hallway, and Filch's old fellow likes it the most—"

"Oh, please, Peeves," Vio pleaded as he held his head in his hands to dodge Peeves' good chalk, "be quiet, if you get discovered by Filch—"

It's not that she's really afraid of Peeves, it's just that she remembers that Peeves has a much stronger liking for his students than he does for Filch.

But the other person apparently didn't know what she was thinking.

Draco watched with contempt as she hid left and right but was still smashed by chalk, and with inexplicable annoyance in his eyes, he quickly grabbed Vio's robe and pulled her behind him, and then whispered to Peeves, "Barrow the Bloody has been talking to me about you lately, and he might want to meet you-"

This sentence worked surprisingly well for Peeves.

He tossed the bag and the rest of the chalk aside, slipped into the locked classroom next door, and nodded sleekly to Draco before leaving, "Filch and his old fat cat will be here soon, Merlin bless you, and don't forget to say something nice about me in front of Sir Barrow!"

Eleven-year-old Vio was actually a little taller than Draco, but when she was pulled behind by Draco, she thought Draco wasn't too good - at least, there was a little peace of mind behind him, strange but not bad.

After Peeves left, Draco suddenly changed his mind and was reluctant to take Vio to Professor McGonagall again, as he said, "I suddenly realized that I wasn't used to walking around with a troll head at night, and I was going back to sleep." ”

For the first time, Vio didn't get angry, but quickly followed, flattering him to talk, "How do you know Peeves will be afraid of Barrow the Bloody?"

"Hmph. This time it was Draco's turn and he strode forward without looking back. Vio touched her nose, but she still happily followed, as for why, she didn't think much about it herself.

The rest of the road went smoothly, and by the time they got back to the Slytherin common room, it was already early in the morning, and Gemma Parley was probably already dreaming, and of course no one stopped them.

As Vio followed Draco step by step to the portrait of Salecha, he thought about it and spoke, "Draco—"

Draco had opened the portrait of Salecha and was about to walk down the stairs to the left—hearing her voice, or stopping, "Huh?"

"Thank you tonight. ”

"Hmph. After a moment, Draco let out a standard Malfoy-esque snort, "Santriel, remember your words, and don't worry about anything between me and Potter in the future!"

"・・・・・・" Vio opened her mouth to tell him that she had no intention of meddling in the affair between him and Harry, and that it was just an accident tonight - but she closed her mouth feebly as she looked at Draco's straight back in the moonlight.

Vio turned around and walked up the stairs to the girls' dormitory on the right, but suddenly a sentence came from behind him: "Wait for me on the couch by the fire at seven o'clock tomorrow morning." ”

Vio spun around, the top half of the staircase on the opposite side was hidden in the darkness and she couldn't see anything, but her heart beat a little faster.
