Chapter Ninety-Four: Filch's Office

"He needs to rest, and you three don't stay too long. ”

Madam Pomfrey looked at Aven, Ron, and Hermione dissatisfied, her eyes focused on the water and mud that kept falling from their clothes.

"Also, you send someone over with me to bring his nutritional potions, this can help him replenish his strength!"

"I'll go. ”

Seeing that Ron seemed to have something to say to Harry, and that this kind of work could not be done by a girl, Evan got up and followed Madam Pomfrey out of the hospital room.

"I seem to see a lot of Dementors?" Harry whispered, thinking of the ominous appearance again.

"Over a hundred Dementors, Harry!" Hermione said in a trembling voice, "I was scared and didn't know what to do, my head was full of terrible things, thanks to Evan and his Patronus, it was able to wake everyone up"

It occurred to her that Aven's Patronus was the same strange black cat she had encountered at the Leaky Cauldron the night before school started.

Could there be any connection between the two, Hermione remembered that Evan had told herself that he had learned Animagus during the summer, but he had been reluctant to tell her what his shapeshifting form was. When she first saw Aven's Patronus on the train, she was a little suspicious, it was too similar to the black cat she had seen before, and Aven was spitting at the time, could it be that his Animagus form was the strange black cat?!

The thought of holding the cat in her arms made Hermione's face flush instantly.

God, if that were the case, she seemed to be in front of Aven

"Alright, Hermione!" Ron jumped up in anger at Hermione's appearance, and he shouted loudly, "Aven's Patronus is useless, it was Dumbledore who saved Harry, and he was the one who drove away those Dementors." ”

"What" Hermione froze for a moment.

"Everyone saw that Aven's Patronus rushed into the midst of those spirit monsters and dissipated completely without holding out for a few seconds. Ron didn't look at Hermione, and said to himself, "His Patronus is useless, Harry fainted in the end, and we lost the game!"

"But at that time, it was Aven's Patronus who brought courage and hope to everyone, and others were able to release the Patronus Charm, and it was the first time that I released a complete Patronus, like an otter. ”

"Don't you understand?!" Ron gasped, "there are so many Dementors out there, and if it weren't for Aven's Patronus, maybe Diggory would have fainted, and in that case, Gryffindor wouldn't have lost." ”

"What are you talking about, Ron!" Hermione said in surprise, "If it hadn't been for Evan buying time, Harry would have fallen?!"

Seeing Hermione's appearance, Ron became more and more irritated.

There was an inexplicable anger in his heart that wanted to be released, he was at the Quidditch pitch, and he only let the wand shine a little, and then it disappeared immediately.

It's a far cry from Aven's complete Patronus, not even Hermione.

This made him feel bad, and he shouted, "He's doing you a disservice, and it's the same without him, Percy is only slower than him"

"Alright, can you two let me be quiet for a while!" Harry whispered.

Ron's voice lowered, and there was an awkward silence in the room.

Harry didn't understand what was going on with Ron and Hermione, they didn't care about their physical condition, and instead discussed whether Aven's Patronus Charm was working, which was ridiculous. Especially since these words were still said behind Aven's back, which made Harry feel very bad.

"Leave the damn Dementors alone, did anyone get my Halo 2000?"

Hearing his words, Ron and Hermione quickly glanced at each other.

"Oh"

"What?!" Harry suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Well, when you fall, it's blown away. Hermione said hesitantly, "And it crashed, and it crashed into that beating willow." ”

Harry felt a pang of cramps, he had learned the beating willow last semester, it could even smash Mr. Weasley's car to pieces.

"And then?" asked Harry in a low voice, afraid to hear an answer.

"Harry, you know the beating willow. Ron said, "It'sβ€”it doesn't like people to bump into it." ”

"Professor Flitwick just got it back before you woke up. Hermione said in a low voice.

She slowly reached for the bag at her feet and tossed it upside down.

More than a dozen pieces of wood and shards of a broomtail's tail landed on the bed, and this was the remains of Harry's last defeated faithful broomstick.

When Ai Wen returned to the ward with the nutrition potion, he saw that none of the three people spoke, and the atmosphere was low and terrifying.

Harry sat on the bed staring at the shards of his broomstick, and Ron and Hermione sat in silence in their chairs, as if they had just quarreled.

"Don't be sad, Harry!" Aven comforted him as he placed the potion on the table beside him, "You can use my Halo 2001, I gave it to you, you know it doesn't work for me at all." ”

Ever since he received the broomstick, Evan had left it under the bed, and he hadn't touched it except for a few times when Ron had lent it out for use.

"Thank you, Aven! I'm just" Harry looked at the fragments of his Halo 2000, not knowing what to say.

The broomstick was beyond repair, and he should have thrown it away. But Harry didn't want to do it, he felt like he had lost a best friend.

It wasn't until about nine o'clock in the evening that Aven, Ron, and Hermione left Harry.

No sooner had they come out of the hospital than Evan saw Ron walking to the common room without looking back, waiting for himself and Hermione.

"What's the matter with him?" said Aven in surprise.

"Maybe the Dementors were affecting him!" Hermione didn't know what to say, and wasn't sure if to tell Aven what Ron had said.

Then, when she thought about the black cat, Hermione's face instantly turned red, and she didn't know if she wanted to confirm it with Aven.

In case he misunderstood, there was not necessarily a connection between the Patronus and the Animagus, and if that were the case, wouldn't it be too embarrassing.

Hermione thought about it for a while, but this matter should be a secret for the time being, and she would investigate it first.

Wait, what would she do if that black cat was really Evan

The two of them walked back in silence, and just turned the corner of the stairs on the second floor, they saw Nick, who was almost headless, suddenly emerge from the wall, wearing a fashionable hat with feathers buttoned into his long curls and a knee-length tunic with a wheel-like ruffled collar.

He seemed to be like a wisp of smoke, and Evan could look through his body at the dark sky and pouring rain outside.

Due to Nick's frequent press releases to the Hogwarts Wizardry over the past year, Evan and Hermione have become very familiar with him.

"Hello!" said Nick in a melancholy voice, "I just heard about what happened at Quidditch, it's just too bad, there's nothing wrong with Harry, right?"

"He's fine, he just can't accept the reality. Hermione replied in a low voice, "You know, this is the first time he's lost a Quidditch match." ”

"yes, yes, Gryffindor is obviously the most powerful, but we always lose games for all sorts of reasons. Nick took a deep breath, "This time it's because of the Dementors, I've long been"

Before Nick could finish his sentence, Evan saw a cat with yellow-eyed eyes suddenly emerge from behind him and let out a high-pitched, piercing bark.

It's Lady Loris, the scrawny gray cat who is heavily used by the janitor Filch to act as his deputy in the endless battles between him and the students.

"You'd better get out of here!" said Nick quickly, "Filch is in a bad mood, he's got a cold, and while Quidditch is playing, someone has turned his office into a mess, things are thrown everywhere, and he's looking for the killer in the castle." ”

"You're right!" Evan pulled Hermione and hurried up the stairs, it was almost bedtime, he didn't want to be stopped by Filch and asked.

But it's strange who is going to Filch's office to cause trouble?!

Fred and George might have done this kind of thing, but they were still playing a Quidditch match and obviously didn't have time, and Peeves could have done it, but it wasn't probably him, and it wasn't his style to run away without leaving his name.

Who else but them?!

Nick said that Filch's office was in a mess and that someone might be looking for something inside, but Filch had confiscated a lot of things from the students.
