Chapter 128: You can't jump too much

Dudley stopped Harry who was about to speak, he stared at Filch and said slowly, "What is you saying is really interesting, what can Harry do when he sees it? Can he understand the meaning of the letter? Let's take another 10,000 steps back, even if it was really me who did it, then please tell me why I should touch your cat and not you!"

There was a fierce glint in his eyes, trying to scare Filch.

Whether Filch is a Squib or not has nothing to do with Dudley, but Filch has a twisted mind due to jealousy and bites people everywhere, which makes Dudley very unhappy.

"That's you!" Filch glared back, not to be outdone, probably because the professors were here, giving him unparalleled courage.

Dudley took a deep breath, it really gave him a headache to meet such an unreasonable person, "You're endless! it's me one moment, it's Harry the next, what evidence can you come up with to prove that we did it?"

Filch wanted to continue arguing about something, but Snape, who was standing in the shadows, took the lead, and said, "Allow me to interject." ”

"Perhaps, the four of them shouldn't have been in that place at that time," Snape said in a deep voice, with a hint of sneer as he spoke.

Dudley glanced at Filch, "You see, Professor Snape is a man who understands......"

It's a pity that his praise for Snape was too early.

"But......" Snape paused, and he stepped out of the shadows, "I have some questions that I need answers, why didn't you attend the Halloween party, and why did you end up there?"

Harry, Ron, and Hermione scrambled to explain what they had done.

"Nick, who almost lost his head, invited us to the death party......"

"There are hundreds of ghosts there. ”

"They can prove that we are there......"

"But after that, why don't you come to the banquet?" said Snape, his dark eyes gleaming in the candlelight, "why did you run into that hallway?"

Ron and Hermione both looked at Harry.

Dudley pinched the bridge of his nose, since these two guys can't answer, don't look at Harry, it's almost obvious to tell the professors that Harry has a problem!

"Because ......" Harry opened his mouth, he could feel his heart pounding, trying to find an excuse but his mind was in a mess.

Dudley tapped Harry on the shoulder, "Because we were freezing at Nick's banquet and wanted to get back to the dorm as soon as possible." ”

"There are so many ghosts in Nick's party," he gestured with a slight exaggeration, "it's cold in there, and Harry and Ron wear very little. ”

"It's cold for a group of ghosts, but aren't you going to have dinner?" a smug smile flashed across Snape's thin face, "I suppose the food the ghosts serve at the banquet isn't quite suitable for the living?"

"We're not hungry!" Ron said loudly, his stomach rumbling at the right time.

The smile on Snape's face became even more pronounced.

Dudley is angry, not afraid of god-like opponents, but afraid of pig-like teammates.

Do you think this is a game of answers? If you can't speak, don't say it!

"Hehe, we weren't hungry at first, but now you're hungry when you say so," Dudley said casually, shrugging his shoulders, "I was going to go to the kitchen and get something to eat if I was hungry." ”

"It seems that our Mr. Dursley is blind to the school rules," the smile on Snape's face froze, "and then I would like to ask one last question, how did you first learn that the cat wasn't dead." ”

Dudley was stunned for a moment, did he start to say that? He pursed his lips and really said it.

It's all to blame for Lockhart's constant twittering, which made him pout.

"Please don't insult my intelligence and abilities," Dudley squinted at Lockhart, "I'm not an idiot, I checked before you arrived." ”

He wasn't going to tell what he knew right now, the basilisk had appeared so suddenly, he hadn't even figured out how to explain what he knew, and that was one of them.

As for the second thing, if Dumbledore had been told now, he would have closed the school for the safety of the students, or at least the basilisk would have to be dealt with before it could reopen.

And during this period, the Ministry of Magic will definitely intervene in the adjustment, and it is very likely that such a big matter will use the truth elixir.

Dudley was at the center of the matter, and it was impossible not to be seriously investigated, and he was afraid of being asked sensitive questions to let the people of the Ministry of Magic know that he had crossed over.

In this way, slicing research is definitely indispensable!

If the person who opened the secret room has a strong background, the Ministry of Magic may not be able to find out who opened it.

In this case, it is almost impossible to find out who it is.

If there was always someone lurking around him who didn't know whether he was friend or foe, it would make Dudley feel uncomfortable.

As for not speaking out, it may cause casualties among the little wizards in the school.

Dudley could only say sorry for this, he was very selfish, and he only needed to take care of a few people around him.

"Headmaster, I don't think Potter and Dursley are completely honest," said Snape, "and I think we should revoke some of their privileges until they tell us what they are." Personally, I think it's best to let Harry leave the Gryffindor Quidditch team and wait until he's honest. ”

Oh no!

Dudley listened to Snape's words and realized that Snape had been saying 'they', but in the end it was Harry.

It turned out that he was targeted by the incident, who let him take the initiative to jump out to pick up Snape's stubble.

If you look at it this way, the gift is not in vain.

"I don't think so, Severus," Professor McGonagall snapped, "and there's no reason why we shouldn't let this kid play. Obviously, the cat wasn't hit in the head by a broomstick or a Bludger. And we don't have any evidence that they made a mistake. ”

Dumbledore stared at Dudley with an inquiring gaze, and Dudley felt terrible at the sight of his glowing blue eyes.

I'm afraid I'll have to go to the principal's office alone.

Jump up and collapse across the board, and get up old in the wilderness.

At the beginning, he should have been a beautiful man quietly, but now I can't be quiet.

Dumbledore said firmly, "As long as there is no evidence that they are guilty, they are innocent." ”

Snape looked annoyed that he hadn't punished Harry this time.

Filch was equally annoyed, his eyes bulging outward, and he screamed, "My cat is petrified! I want to see some punishment here!"

"We can cure it, Filch. Dumbledore said patiently, "Professor Sprout has gotten some mandrakes lately. Once they are mature and mature, we can use them to make potions that will de-petrify Lady Loris. ”
