Chapter 054 First Cooperation

"Catherine, what now?" As soon as the four Slytherins arrived, Harry asked nervously.

"Harry's revelation of his ability to speak snakes is sure to attract suspicion from others." Ron said uneasily.

"The man must have thought he had found a scapegoat!" Blaise looked at Harry with a malicious expression.

"So he's going to do it again in the near future." Draco's eyes lit up, his fists clenched, and he looked like he was about to fight.

"We've got to figure out a way to catch him the next time he acts." Hermione walked quickly back and forth in the center of the room with a thoughtful expression.

"We're just a bunch of sophomores, what can we do to deal with the Dark Lord?" Pansy struck mercilessly, "Plus an embroidered pillow!" ”

"We don't have to bother!" Catherine leaned back on the couch and pointed to each other, "The professors are ready to throw this pillow away when they clean up the spiders at Christmas!" ”

"And what about our Defence Against the Dark Arts class?" The other six asked in unison.

"The principal will find a substitute teacher." Catherine smiled, "Otherwise, he'll have to teach it himself!" ”

When they returned to their dormitory, a light snow had fallen outside the castle, and by the time Catherine got up the next day, the light snow had turned into a violent blizzard, and her morning exercise had to be cancelled.

"I have a bad premonition." When coming to the foyer, Catherine said to Snape.

"You just can't go out and about." Snape coldly laughed at the girl's heartiness.

But when Snape was in the first Potions class of the day, Douglas's voice suddenly came to his head.

[He's calling me again.] 】

"Go ahead." Snape said in his heart, "Don't hurt the students. ”

【Rest assured! 】

Snape didn't leave the classroom, because Dumbledore had asked them not to arouse the man's suspicion before closing the net, and since everyone else in the castle had to attend classes now except for the suspect, he just walked over to the podium and took out the black notebook that Catherine had given him yesterday.

In the History of Magic classroom, Draco, Pansy, and Brace, who were communicating in the green notebook that Catherine had given them, suddenly saw this sentence pop up in the address book.

Douglas has already set off. -- Snape

Godfather? - Draco

Dean? - Pansy, Brace

Professor Snape? - Hermione

Snape? - Ron, Harry

Disrespecting the professor, Gryffindor deducts two points! -- Snape

―_―！ - Harry, Ron, Hermione, Draco, Brace, Pansy

I'm going to inform Professor Dumbledore now. - Catherine

Draco, Pansy, and Blaise immediately turned back to find that Catherine's seat was empty.

Godfather, it's really you! - Draco

Hello Dean! - Pansy, Brace

I didn't take classes seriously, and I went to my office at night to confine! -- Snape

It's ---_―! - Draco, Pansy, Brace

Great, can I ask you questions at any time? Professor Snape! - Hermione

Miserable! - Ron, Harry

The three of you are locked up together for the rest of the night! -- Snape

Why do we have to be locked up too! - Ron

We're not in class! - Harry

Professor Sprout said that putting socks and scarves on mandrakes was a job that needed to be taken seriously, and she was not comfortable leaving it to someone else, so today's herbal class was cancelled. - Hermione

Gryffindor 2nd year is all around you? -- Snape

Yes, we were all in the common room. - Harry, Ron, Hermione

And the Hufflepuff sophomores, who had to get the portrait and the ghost to find them immediately. - Catherine

Found it, they're all in the library! - Draco, Brace, Pansy

No, Justin Finchleigh isn't in the library, and the portrait in the Hufflepuff common room says he's out! -- Snape

I saw him, he was with Nick, who was almost headless- Ah! Don't look back! - Catherine

He saw Douglas, across Nick. -- Snape

Where are they? - Harry, Ron, Hermione, Draco, Brace, Pansy

Near the entrance to the principal's office. - Catherine, Snape

Catherine rubbed her temples and looked at the two newly "formed" statues in front of her with a look of embarrassment.

Justin Finielly lay on the floor, cold and stiff, with a frightened look on his face, his eyes glazed on the ceiling.

Nick was blackened and smoky, lying motionless, suspended six inches above the ground. Half of his head was off, and he had the same look of horror on his face.

[I didn't mean to!] Douglas spat out the snake letter, gently shaking his huge body, with a very aggrieved expression, [I heard your voice, and I opened my eyes, I didn't expect there to be other people among us. 】

[Don't go back yet! Catherine shouted angrily, "Do you want to wait to be watched! 】

【Yes!】 Douglas hurriedly opened the nearby plumbing system in snake language and quickly slipped away.

"Catherine!" As soon as Douglas's massive figure disappeared from the hallway, Draco and Harry ran across the hallway.

"Quick!" Catherine immediately issued the order.

"Draco, mute!" Draco pulls out his wand and casts a soundproof spell.

"Harry, get out of the way to the medical wing!" 【Open the passage to the medical wing!】 Harry spoke nervously, and a brightly lit passage appeared on the wall of the hallway.

"Brace, Ron, move Justin Finley!" Blaise lifted Justin's head and Ron lifted his feet and walked quickly into the passageway.

"Hermione, Pansy, you're in charge of Nick!" Catherine conjured two large fans and handed them to the other two girls, who immediately fanned Nick into the passageway.

As Hermione and Pansy walked into the hallway, a nearby door slammed open, and Peeves, a mischievous man, rushed out.

【Close!】 Catherine whispered at once, and the entrance to the passage immediately disappeared into darkness.

"Ah, it's little Potter!" Peeves giggled and jumped past Harry, knocking Harry's glasses crooked. "What is Potter doing? Why is Potter sneaky-"

"What's that?" Peeves flipped halfway through a hollow heel and suddenly stopped, looking down at a dark corner of the hallway, and Harry followed it, and saw that it was a transfiguration textbook, apparently from Justin.

"Nothing!" Harry yelled and ran over to pick up the book, but Pipsqueak scurried over him and grabbed the textbook.

"Transfiguration textbooks?" Peeves floated into the air, flipped open the title page, and then froze suddenly, "Justin Finch-" He spun around twice before finally looking at Harry, "He's not here, so why would his textbooks-" He stopped and took a deep breath.

"Hurry up—" Harry hurriedly turned to ask for help, only to find that the hallway was empty, just him and Peeves.

"Let's do it! Let's do it! Let's do it again! In Harry's moments of frustration, Peeves screamed at the top of his voice, "Another Muggle student is missing!" Run for your life! Move! ”

"Bang-" The doors in the hallway were pushed open one by one, and people rushed out, running around at a loss, and the scene was extremely chaotic.

Harry found himself being squeezed against the wall, only to notice that the red notebook that Catherine had given him was glowing red, and he opened it to see that he was almost mad.

Katherine to Harry: Medical Wing Convergence.

Draco to Harry: Take care!

Harry snapped his notebook shut and looked up at Peeves hovering over his head, apparently it was impossible for him to slip away, even if it was still chaotic.

The teachers shouted loudly to keep order, but they were always overshadowed by the voices of the students, until Professor McGonagall slammed her wand into a loud bang, and everyone fell silent, and she ordered everyone to go back to their classrooms, and the students left the hallways, but they all crowded into the doorways and refused to enter.

"What's going on?" Professor McGonagall glanced at it, finally fixing her gaze on Harry and Peeves.

"It's Justin Finchreel's transfiguration textbook, but his people aren't here." Peeves handed the textbook to Professor McGonagall and grinned wickedly at Harry, "Harry must have told his pet to take the man away." ”

"Peeves, please figure things out before yelling! Justin Finchrie had an accident, Mr. Weasley and Miss Granger had already taken them to the medical wing, and Mr. Potter was preparing to report to the Headmaster. Professor McGonagall looked at Harry and lifted his glasses, and the black-haired boy nodded vigorously.

"Then how did Justin's textbook end up here?" Hufflepuff's Ernie McMillan panted and asked, having just arrived on the scene.

"As soon as I was nervous, I kept holding—" Harry said quickly, "until I fell." He pointed to the trail of water left by Douglass at the end of the hallway.

"But—" Peeves floated over the crowd's heads, looking down at the scene, "I heard a hissing sound just now. ”

"Maybe I used snake language when I complained." Harry huffed, but the students in the room gasped.

"But you just—" Peeves was about to say something, but was interrupted by Professor McGonagall.

"Don't make a fuss! Peeves! Professor McGonagall yelled, "Do you want the whole school to be closed!" ”

Peeves angrily stuck out his tongue at Harry and fled in a hurry, Professor McGonagall glared around him, the other students retreated back into the classroom, and the Hufflepuff sophomores dropped "Let's go see Justin" and ran away, leaving only Harry and Professor McGonagall in the hallway.

"Thank you, Professor McGonagall!" Harry walked over to her and thanked her softly.

"The headmaster's password is 'chilled lemonade,'" Professor McGonagall handed him Justin's Transfiguration textbook, "Dumbledore will take you to the medical wing." ”

"Okay." After Harry saw Professor McGonagall leave, he ran to the Headmaster's office.

When he saw the oak door with a brass sphin-like door knocker, Harry couldn't help but think of the last time Snape slapped the door open, causing the portraits of the headmasters to scold, he knocked lightly, and the door opened quietly.

Harry walked in slowly, and saw that the headmasters were indeed snoring in their respective frames, and without the nervousness of the last time, he couldn't help but look curiously at the office that he thought was the most interesting.
