Chapter 139: Professor McGonagall's Puzzle
The students left under the guidance of their prefects, but Dumbledore and the professors remained. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Bruce wasn't surprised by Dumbledore's decision to let the three of them stay, after all, the three of them were eyewitnesses to the incident!
"Argus! Don't worry, we'll wake up Mrs. Lorris! Dumbledore comforted the weeping Filch again.
At this time, what made Bruce speechless was that Lockhart's performance began again, and he said in the tone of a righteous hero: "It's indeed a petrification spell, but it's a pity that I'm not there, otherwise I will definitely be able to save him!" ”
But everyone present had a look of "I don't believe it", and even Hermione felt that the idol she admired was an "afterthought"!
Dumbledore looked at the blood words and said, "But I don't know how it was petrified!" ”
Filch shuddered and pointed at Bruce and Harry, and said, "It's them!" It's them! Headmaster! ”
Harry hurriedly said, "No! Not us, I can guarantee it! Professor Dumbledore! ”
Bruce said, "Mr. Filch! I know you're sad about what happened to your cat, but please don't frame people randomly! ”
At this moment, what Bruce Harry and Hermione didn't expect was that Snape actually stood up and spoke for them.
"Headmaster! I think Potter: they were just in the wrong place at the wrong time! Snape said to Dumbledore, then he looked at Harry and Bruce and said, "But there are still some doubts!" I had seen Potter and Sterling before dinner, but I didn't see either of them in the restaurant! ”
Bruce sneered when he heard this, and said, "I am really flattered by Professor Snape's words! I didn't expect you to pay so much attention to us! ”
"Huh!" Harry laughed coldly.
Professor McGonagall said: "I think I can explain that I asked them to finish their confinement. The reason is what happened at the beginning of the school year, but the confinement has been changed to help Lockhart reply to letters! ”
"That's right! I can attest to that! "Harry Bruce and I worked until late, in fact the two of them hadn't been out of my office for more than ten minutes!" ”
Hermione said, "That's right! I just saw that Bruce and Harry didn't come back to look for them, and we saw this on the way to the dormitory, and Harry said at the time......"
Speaking of this, Harry secretly pulled Hermione's robes, and Hermione stopped abruptly!
Snape stared at Hermione and asked coldly; "What did he say?"
Bruce said, "Harry said he was hungry, and we had been in Professor Lockhart's office for four hours, and we hadn't eaten dinner yet!" ”
"That's it!" Dumbledore said, "Severus, there's no reason why you can't be suspicious!" You three can go back, Minerva! We are informed that no students are allowed to move around at night, and the stargazing class has been postponed temporarily! ”
Professor McGonagall nodded and said, "I know, Professor Dumbledore!" ”
The three of them left, and when they left the hallway and came to the spiral staircase, Hermione couldn't hold back the doubts in her heart and asked, "Why don't you tell Dumbledore about this!" ”
Harry said, "I don't think this will make them believe me!" Hermione, that voice was only audible to me, and then there was Lady Loris petrified and those blood letters, don't you think there was something of a desire to cover it up when I said it? ”
Bruce patted Harry on the shoulder and said, "Dude! You're a little clever this time! ”
Harry was surprised, "Should I tell Dumbledore about this?" ”
Hermione frowned and said, "Harry! Do you know? Even in the world of magic, hearing strange noises is not a good sign! ”
The person on one of the paintings next to him immediately said, "That's right, she's right!" ”
Harry was stunned, then shook his head and said with a wry smile, "It seems that this semester should not be spent in peace!" ”
Bruce said, "What do you two think of those words?" ”
Hermione nodded and said; "The Chamber of Secrets! Successor! That's the point! ”
Neither Bruce nor Harry spoke, and Hermione didn't continue to ask, not because of anything else, but because none of them knew what "Chamber of Secret" and "Heir" meant!
This incident left a pimple in the hearts of the three of them, but they didn't plan to talk all night, there were too many things happening today, they were already very tired, and they went back to the dormitory to say goodnight and go back to sleep!
Day 2, Transfiguration class!
Professor McGonagall stood in front of the podium and said, "Students, before we start a new lesson, I think we should practice what we learned from the previous class and turn animals into goblets!" Who wants to give it a try? ”
Ron raised his hand for the first time, and Professor McGonagall immediately noticed the stranger and said, "Yes, Mr. Weasley! ”
Under the influence of Bruce and Hermione, Ron was still not interested in other subjects, but he was very interested in charms.
Ron picked up his wand and coughed lightly, and waved his wand at his spot: "The appearance has changed dramatically!" ”
"Whoosh!"
A green light struck the blob, and it instantly turned into a coffee-colored glass goblet!
"Very good! Mr. Weasley! Professor McGonagall complimented.
Ron laughed very smugly!
Then Professor McGonagall returned to the podium and said, "Today we will continue to learn Transfiguration, Transfiguration is one of the most difficult of all spells, but it is very useful, it is often seen in our world, dead things, animals and even themselves can be transformed!" Of course, this requires...... Kindness? Miss Granger! ”
As Professor McGonagall spoke, Hermione suddenly raised her hand!
It was normal for Hermione to raise her hand in class as if Ron would sleep, only this time Ron had an "accident", and so did Hermione. She didn't answer the question, but hoped that Professor McGonagall would answer the doubts in her mind!
"Professor! Can you tell us a little bit about it...... What's the secret room all about? Hermione asked.
Professor McGonagall was stunned for a moment, and in fact everyone was stunned. Everyone is puzzled about what happened last night, and they all want someone to explain! Professor McGonagall noticed everyone's eyes and motioned for Hermione to sit down first!
"Okay!" Professor McGonagall pondered for a moment and said, "I think everyone knows that Hogwarts was founded a thousand years ago!" The founders were four of the greatest wizards of their time! Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, and Salazar Slytherin! But after the establishment of the school, there was a disagreement between the four founders! ”
