Chapter 287: So helpless
Once most of the students had left, Karkaroff grabbed Snape and said, "Look," he lifted the left sleeve of his robe and showed Snape what was underneath it. It's never been so obvious, sinceβ"
"Hide!" Snape said viciously, his dark eyes scanning the classroom to see that Darren was still in his seat. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's class, what are you doing? Sean! β
"You said I should stay after school and come up with a way to avoid another accident like Malfoy," Darren replied.
"Okay, go back today, come back tomorrow!" Snape frowned, then, "Potter! What are you doing? He snapped, finally realizing that Darren was not alone in the classroom.
"Wipe off the toad bile I spilled, Professor." Harry straightened up and held up the wet rag in his hand to show Snape with an innocent expression.
Seeing Harry, Karkaroff stopped talking, he paused slightly, turned and strode out of the classroom, Darren followed closely behind him, leaving Harry in the classroom with Snape.
At dinner, seeing Darren appear at the table, Hermione was speechless with excitement, and held his hand tightly and did not let go, so she had to sit together until food appeared on the plate, and Darren's hand was freed......
At the dinner table, Darren thought back to Karkaroff, and it was clear that he was looking for Snape because of the reaction to the Death Eater mark on his arm, which showed that Voldemort was back and getting stronger, perhaps with the help of Crouch Jr., but since Karkaroff was still here, then Voldemort was not completely resurrected, otherwise this guy would have run away or hung up.
Thinking of this, Darren sighed, really, he handed over the Slytherin pendant and Regulus's letter to Dumbledore last year, and I don't know what he did, as well as Blake and Lupin, and they haven't seen a figure all year long, mysterious and mysterious, as a result, it seems that everything is still moving according to the original trajectory, and Voldemort has recovered his body, although it is not yet a complete version.
If you look at it this way, he tosses and turns, and it seems that only Moody has missed ten months of prison food...... There's no way, my strength is still too weak, and I don't dare to mix too deep in it.
"What's wrong? Are you worried about Snape? Hearing Darren's sigh, Hermione asked in a low voice.
"Snape? Oh, no, well, yes, but don't worry, I've figured out a way to get him away," Darren shook his head subconsciously, and then changed his words, he didn't want to tell Hermione about Voldemort, and he couldn't explain how he knew.
"Really?" Hermione looked at him suspiciously, "You've figured it out?" β
It turned out to be suspicious of this, "No problem, I'll tell you when I go back later." β
In the Gryffindor common room, Darren asked Hermione to watch him write a letter to Penelope, saying that he needed some masks and protective goggles, and told the other party that when he "smuggled" to the war zone in Bosnia and Herzegovina the year before, he also got the shell of a trading company, maybe there was some medical equipment left in the warehouse, go there first, and if not, use the name of this company to find someone to order.
Although she watched Darren finish writing the letter and send it with the tablet that came with Penelope, Hermione was still a little worried, wondering if the idea would satisfy Snape.
Darren couldn't say anything about this, but he felt that if the closed goggle and the biochemical mask didn't satisfy Snape, he would have to put on a gas mask......
"Well," a distraught Hermione held a book, and Darren saw that the cover read "The Tragedy of the Triwizard Tournament", what did this book mean...... "Today in Potions class, Malfoy?" β
"Don't worry, you can't die, Madam Pomfrey's level is very high, I'm half-cooked, it's okay if not."
"Oh, I mean that potion," Hermione's eyes peeked out of the book, "and I saw it float on its own, too. β
"Oh? Hehehehe, potions, who knows what Malfoy put in it, hahaha......" Darren laughed dryly, "The tragedy of the Triwizard Tournament, what is this book?"
ββ¦β¦ The book is about the various casualties of the Triwizard Tournament over the past seven centuries," Hermione stared at Darren for a moment before she said slowly, "I hope to find a clue about the third event from above, which says that in the 1792 Tournament, the warriors were tasked with catching a chicken-bodied, snake-tailed monster, but the monster was uncontrollable and went on a rampage, injuring all three principals." β
"Chicken-bodied snake-tailed monsters?" Darren asked suspiciously, "Is there such a creature?" I don't remember seeing it in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. β
"It should be Basilix, its upper body looks like a rooster, and its lower body looks like a snake, commonly known as 'chicken snake' or 'poisonous lizard', and likes to live in the desert, which is not easy for us to see in the UK, so it was not written into 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them'." As soon as Darren's question came out, Hermione once again perfectly showed the strength of "jack of all trades".
"The name Basilix means 'little king' in Greek, because it has white spots on its head, it looks like it is wearing a crown, this monster is very dangerous, in addition to killing people with its sight like a basilisk, it can also kill creatures by poison gas and other non-contact methods, it is so poisonous that even stones can turn into sand."
"So," Hermione went into narration mode again, "it's not that Basilix likes to live in the desert, it's that it turns deserts everywhere it goes!" β
"Wow," Darren exclaimed when he heard that Basilix was even more dangerous than the basilisk, "No wonder there were so many dead people in the Triwizard Tournament before, and the mission was so difficult, if I were to deal with this thing, I wouldn't do it." β
Hermione glanced at him, "You know you love life, so you don't have to talk about it all the time!" Now, she's finally back to her usual form.
"It is said that the natural predators of Basilix are roosters and ferrets, and the rooster's crow can drive away or kill Basiliks, which is similar to basilisks, and if you put the ferret in the burrows where these monsters live, it can poison Basiliks with a stench......"
"Itachi poisoned Basilix with a stench? Doesn't Basilix also gasse? β
"Who knows, anyway, it's written in the book, that there is another way, which is to put a mirror to its eyes, so that it will be killed by its own power......"
