Chapter Forty-Seven: Sick Again

Ron ripped off his cloak of invisibility and muttered as he looked at the door.

"Dumbledore is gone. They're probably going to close their schools tonight. After he left, there would be attacks every day. โ€

"It's not that bad. Let's go back and think about what Hagrid meant, as soon as we find a clue, it's over. โ€

Xana's pat on Ron was comforting.

The next day, the news of Dumbledore's departure caused the entire castle to panic and everyone was in a mess. Hogwarts, like all old castles, was cold and damp, and now it was the same atmosphere, and although it was sunny outside, everyone in the castle felt the chill around them.

"It feels like it's catching up with the Death Knight's frost aura."

With the gloomy castle and panicked students, and some ice ballast, Xana feels that she can almost directly shoot the scene of the undead in "The Lich King's Crusade", and even the ghosts are ready-made. Even if everyone finally starts to believe that Hallie and Xana are not the attackers, it doesn't make people feel happy.

Hagrid's hint about spiders is quickly guessed. There was no metaphor, Hagrid was just letting people stalk spiders, and Xana had to say that she was really thinking too much. But the problem is that spiders, which are not too difficult to see in the castle, don't know what's wrong recently, and they can't see any of them.

"It's funny."

Hagrid said to follow the spider, but everyone actually found out that the spider in the castle had moved, is it a coincidence?

"Xana, do you want the magical girls to help us find it?"

Now that all the students had to work in groups and attend classes under the escort of their teachers, the search for several people was seriously disrupted, and Harley suggested enlisting the help of other contracted magical girls.

"The Magical Girls Mutual Aid Association has been disbanded, and now, including the magical girls in Slydrin, everyone in the various houses is trembling in a small circle."

"Ahh

Xana's words surprised Harry.

"You don't know?" Xana shrugged, "Hermione's monster fighting activities has stopped after the accident. Now that Dumbledore had been forced away, everyone was terrified. โ€

These magical girls at Hogwarts are neither favorite concubines nor white tyrants, they all impulsively signed contracts under the flicker of QB's pyramid schemes, and went to the battlefield without any training, not even rookies, and were not mentally prepared for bloodshed and sacrifice at all. Usually clean up the cannon fodder monster ** dish is naturally majestic and morale is high, but since he recognized the true face of QB, most of his anger has been discharged, and now Hermione is suspected of being killed, the principal has resigned, and finally this confidence is gone.

"After all, they have a certain amount of combat experience, so they can see something behind the incident, and the monster is not something they can deal with, so they are even more afraid. But that's fine, at least they won't take the initiative to find death, and if they are all ignorant and fearless, they will be in trouble. Fear can be overcome, but idiots die - there is no help. โ€

Harley knew who Xana was talking about, and Malfoy was bragging about it in the line ahead. Malfoy had been walking around the school with a sense of pride, as if he had just been appointed president of the boys' student council.

"I knew my father was going to get rid of Dumbledore."

"Let me tell you, he thinks Dumbledore is the worst headmaster the school has ever had. We're probably going to have a decent headmaster now, someone who doesn't want the Chamber of Secrets to close. McGonagall won't be around for long, she's only temporarily filling in the vacancies..."

The bear child is hopeless.

Listening to the idiot's remarks, Hallie shook her head, now she looked down on Malfoy more and more. Although Slydrin has not been attacked so far, Harley definitely doesn't think it's because the Chamber of Secrets monsters are controlled by the Slydrin heirs, just because the Slydlins are very cautious and make it difficult for the monsters to attack.

The criminals all targeted lone students. After the first attack, the Sledlins began to move in groups. Even the last time Ron transformed and infiltrated, he used a sleeping pill cake to bring down a team of Slydlins before he got the target's hair. In this way, when he entered the door, he was stopped and reprimanded by Snape, warning him not to run alone. Ron was so scared that he almost thought he was exposed.

Now he actually makes up the brains of dangerous criminals as his backers, how big a brain hole does this take. Hallie felt stupid enough to think that this guy was her second most important enemy (the first being Snape).

Malfoy's arrogance upset everyone, but the search was still too slow, and just when Harley was about to smash Xana and use the high-powered radar to make a CT of the castle, the house leak happened to rain overnight, and Xana was suddenly hospitalized.

In Defence Against the Dark Arts class that day, Lockhart once again went on a rampage, claiming that he had prevented more attacks (because of the latest attack, Lockhart changed his words slightly), and taunting Hagrid, claiming that Hagrid was the culprit.

"The danger is over! The criminals have already been taken away. โ€

"Hagrid is not a criminal! There is no evidence that Hagrid was responsible for this series of attacks. โ€

Hallie shouted and confronted Lockhart.

"Oh, my dear lady, Hagrid would not have been taken away if the Minister of Magic hadn't found him 100% guilty."

Lockhart's tone was as if someone was explaining to a schoolboy that one plus one equals two.

"Not necessarily."

Ron said.

"I'm confident I know a little more about Hagrid's arrest than you do, Mr. Weasley. For example, poor Miss Granger, it is really unfortunate for such a lovely girl as her, and I don't know if I will be able to find her bones in the end, and fall to..."

Lockhart said in a smug and slightly regretful tone.

"No road race! Shut up! Hermione would be fine. Either subjectively or objectively, you don't have any evidence that the culprit is Hagrid, and the biggest reason is simply that Hagrid was brought in by the Ministry of Magic to assist in the investigation. Note! Hagrid was not prosecuted, he was only to assist in the investigation! โ€

Xana was furious. Could it be that Lockhart was finally given a potion by Snape? It is unforgivable to say such things in front of him, to talk nonsense about Hermione and Hagrid.

"If you slander Hagrid in this case, I can call for a duel in the name of insulting my friend, or you can wait for the lawsuit. I've appointed a lawyer to file an administrative lawsuit against the Ministry of Magic, accusing them of human rights violations, and now add you for defamation... Eh......"

Shana, who was shouting for Lockhart to choose between eating guns or eating lawsuits, suddenly collapsed clutching her stomach.

"Ya Butterfly... It's so uncomfortable......"

Unable to continue to trouble Lockhart, Harley quickly picked up Shana and took her to the infirmary. But Lockhart did something that no one could have imagined.

He barricaded the doorway to prevent Harley from taking Shana out alone for security reasons, and refused to escort her, saying that he would protect the other students here. The eyes of the two stared at each other, and sparks flew everywhere. The students find that the situation is about to get out of control and send a message to Professor McGonagall.

"Bastard!"

When Professor McGonagall arrived, Harley was so anxious that she pulled out her gun, and Ron pulled it so hard that it didn't hit Lockhart's head.

"I'm sorry Professor, I'm in a hurry to take my sister to the infirmary!"

Seeing the door open, Harley didn't care about continuing to trouble Lockhart, and without explaining to Professor McGonagall, picked up Xana and rushed out.

"Professor, please take everyone back to Gryffindor House!"

After giving up on Professor McGonagall, Ron chased him out.

"Children, you..."

McGonagall didn't know what was going on, and the student messaged herself that something was going to happen here, what the hell was going on?!

"Professor, please take us back to the Gryffindor common room." *n

The grim-faced students and Lockhart, who was shaking their heads and didn't seem to know what they were doing, would definitely not be able to continue the lesson, and Professor McGonagall would have to take the students back to Gryffindor first. On the way, Professor McGonagall gave the students an overview of what had just happened in the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom, and was shocked to hear it.

"O Merlin! How could he do that! โ€

Seeing that the student who suddenly fell ill was not saved, and refused to send it to the infirmary, let alone notify other teachers, which is what a professor should do, even ordinary passers-by will not do this when they see someone suddenly falling ill!

"What we say is true. Professor! I swear. โ€*n

If only one or two students say this in private, it may be revenge, after all, Lockhart offends people everywhere. Now that everyone was swearing by it, Professor McGonagall had to think carefully about its authenticity.

But the matter is too hard to believe, and the consequences are too serious for she, the interim principal, to handle. Hogwarts is already in turmoil, and at this time, there are reports of the professor not saving the student due to personal grudge and even trying to let the student die of illness, then I am afraid there is no other choice but to close the school.

Professor McGonagall could well imagine the entire castle being flooded with the parents' yelling letters tomorrow, and even the Sledlin parents would never let Lockhart go when they heard this. If such a villain is not fired quickly, if his child accidentally offends him, will he also be "sick to death"?

"The school will never tolerate it, please trust me..."

Professor McGonagall was busy reassuring the students in the common room, while Harley and Ron had already taken Xana to the infirmary. Madam Pomfrey carried Xana inside to check, while Ron was isolated in the outroom because he was a boy, and Harley felt that it was not safe for Ron to stay here alone, so she stayed with him.

"Is Lockhart crazy today?"

Ron couldn't believe Lockhart was going to do that just now.

"If something happens to Xana..."

Harley's silver teeth clenched, and the beam pistol was confiscated along the way just now, and now when she grasped it in a hurry, there were a few more finger prints on the handle of the gun, all of which were pinched and deformed.

"Calm down! Calm down Hallie! โ€

Ron had never seen Harley like this, and even if he had to face Voldemort last year, he was not as scary as he is now (Sister Control Burst Out Super Max). Ron had no doubt that if Lockhart dared to appear in front of Harley now, he would directly open a few holes.

"Your sister is fine, but you'd better stay and watch tonight."

In the evening, Pomfrรจve came out of the treatment room and announced that Xana was out of danger but needed to be hospitalized for observation.

"Children, after dinner, Minerva will take you back. Don't run around, it's too dangerous to send a patient over today. โ€

Madam Pomfrey took out her wand and conjured a simple dinner for Harley and Ron, telling them to stay and wait for the teacher to pick them up, and then go to the room.

"It's fine. Seriously, did that guy take Snape's Chaos Potion by mistake? I usually see Xana hiding and walking, how dare I do this today? โ€

Biting into the pumpkin pie, Ron muttered.

"Maybe. I'm not going to let him go anyway. โ€

Harley viciously destroys a sandwich as if it were Lockhart's incarnation. Whether it was the peacock's brain-dead convulsions or the fact that he was really poisoned by Snape, he would not be spared.

"Hey..."

Following the voice, Harley and Ron were surprised to see that the door of the infirmary had been opened, and an older senior outside was quietly beckoning the two of them over, looking at the badge on their clothes that should be Ravenclaw's.

"Ah, it's you..."

Harley recognized who it was, and looked at the door with a look of disgust.

There's no way not to be disgusted, as long as the three views are normal, whoever knows that he has become the protagonist of the 18xbl book will not have a good face for the author. Ever since she heard from Shana that this Ravenclaw senior girl specializes in drawing her own BL books, Harley has avoided her.

"There's something you can help me with."

Hallie's hostility was completely ignored, and a thin magazine-sized notebook was shoved into Hallie's hand.

"This is a new episode originally prepared for the summer holy war, and now it will be given to you as a non-sale gift."

"I..."

I thought I was going to throw it away.,But I found out that the book was actually a comic of myself and Xana.,Although the scale in many places is still a little bigger (it's actually very big),But if you can really ...... with Xana's sister.

"What is this?"

Ron craned his neck to try to read the contents of the notebook in Harry's hand.

"No, nothing."

Harley quickly put the book in the storage space, this 18x lily book will be her own treasure, Ron, you stay away.

"Tell me, what are you looking for us?"

With someone else's hands short, Harley naturally couldn't refuse the other party anymore. But I still secretly prayed that this brainy senior sister was not looking for herself for messy things, such as taking materials for the BL book or something, no matter how much Xana's lily book was, she couldn't agree.

"Do you think I'm going to want to have something to do with you..."

Unexpectedly, this senior sister complained first. The implication of the words was that getting involved with Harley was to get a death flag for herself, and Harley didn't know how to complain when she heard it, and she complained for a quarter of an hour before finally saying that she wanted to ask Harley.

"Take me with you when you go looking for spiders in the Forbidden Forest."

"Forbidden Forest? Spider? We..."

Harley and Ron were completely confused, we were really looking for the spider all this time, but we didn't find it at all. And why is this known to outsiders?

"I know, don't be perfunctory to me, you don't know (Hallie: We really don't). If not... I don't want to have anything to do with you and Tom... Anyway, I'm in the sixth grade this year, and next year's Defense Against the Dark Arts class professor is Lupin, so I'm sure I'll get a good grade, and after graduation, I'll move back to RB to escape the flames... Woo, all you have to know is that I'll have to go with you to find the spider now! โ€

This passage is a mess, and the preface does not match the afterword, and Harley and Ron have no idea what this senior sister is talking about except for the last sentence, and they can only hear it from the few words that it seems to have something to do with the next year. Could it be that this senior sister's course selection is divination?

No matter what attention this senior sister pays attention to, there is one important piece of information, that is, the spider is in the Forbidden Forest.

"Without further ado, we'll go to the Forbidden Forest tonight."

"Good. See you at the gate at midnight and there is a change owl contact. โ€

After speaking, the light and shadow in front of him shook, and the person disappeared.

"Isn't Hogwarts incapable of apparition, and the Forbidden Forest won't have any trouble taking her tonight, right?"

"Shhh

The next moment, Professor McGonagall appeared at the corner of the stairs, but fortunately was not heard.
