Chapter 056 entered the medical wing for the first time

"Catherine." An old, gentle voice suddenly sounded behind her.

The image of the three people in the mirror disappeared, and they became a bearded old man with silver hair and silver beard.

"Headmaster?" Catherine found that her spirit was completely absorbed by this mirror, and she didn't even know when Dumbledore would come behind her, "Why are you ......"

Catherine suddenly shut her mouth as Dumbledore in the mirror burst into flames, and her head ached.

"Ahh Catherine screamed and fainted directly, but fortunately she was held up by Dumbledore so that she did not fall.

"Sure enough!" Dumbledore sighed, and then noticed that Catherine's body suddenly moved, and he seemed to remember something, and very decisively let go of his hand and retreated, but the girl had already propped up the ground and kicked at him.

Dumbledore raised his left hand unhurriedly, and a cluster of flames erupted from his palm, which exploded into a web of fire.

As if aware of the power of this web of fire, Catherine turned around and fled some distance, she bowed down like a beast ready to devour people, but her eyes were closed.

"Sure enough, it's much harder when you're unconscious than when you're awake!" Dumbledore laughed and said, "Thankfully, this isn't the first time I've encountered this situation. ”

"Shhh Catherine let out a strange protest, and the tendons in her hands began to tighten.

"Good! I've got to take you to the medical wing now! Dumbledore reached out his right hand like a child, but Catherine was unmoved.

"Hey!" Dumbledore sighed and took out his wand, "It looks like it can only be like last time." ”

As soon as she saw his wand, Catherine jumped up without hesitation and rushed to the door of the classroom, but Dumbledore's magic was so fast that she touched the door and a rope wrapped around her ankle.

Out of nowhere, Catherine pulled out a dull black dagger and quickly slashed at the rope, but instead of breaking, the magic rope grabbed her wrist and quickly tied her.

"Roar!" Catherine roared and struggled, but her eyes remained closed.

"Let's go! Let's go to the Medical Wing! Dumbledore smiled and cast a levitation charm on Catherine, then picked up the dagger that had fallen to the ground and led her towards the medical wing.

"Albus Dumbledore!" Madam Pomfrey roared at the sight of Catherine, "You treat students like this! ”

"Don't be in a hurry to get angry, Poppy!" Dumbledore stopped Madam Pomfrey from trying to untie the girl, "Catherine, due to her childhood experience, would attack anyone who approached her when she was unconscious. ”

"What!" Madam Pomfrey looked at Catherine in surprise, and sure enough, she found that although the girl was struggling violently, her eyes were indeed closed, "How can this be?" She cried out in anguish.

"Now is not the time to find out," Dumbledore put Catherine on the bed, but she just wouldn't lie still, "but what to do?" ”

"Wake her up? No—" Madam Pomfrey denied, "magic doesn't work for her." We-" she sighed helplessly, "only to wait for her to wake up?" ”

"That's going to have to wait until six o'clock in the morning." As Dumbledore spoke, he suddenly heard the sound of running footsteps in the hallway outside the door, and soon Snape's panicked figure rushed in.

"Where's Catherine?" As soon as Snape got to Madam Pomfrey he asked, "I heard the portrait say she was sent here!" ”

Dumbledore and Madam Pomfrey hurriedly ducked to the side, allowing him to see the girl struggling in bed.

"What's going on!" Snape roared and rushed to the bed.

When Snape rushed over, Catherine seemed to have pressed the stop button and suddenly fell silent.

"Who tied her up like this?" Snape glared at the other two, but they both stared at Catherine in surprise.

"Severus! You come with me first! Dumbledore pulled Snape to the door of the medical wing, then glanced at Madam Pomfrey.

Madam Pomfrey nodded, slowly approaching Catherine, who seemed to be asleep, and suddenly, she bounced off the bed and crashed into Madam Pomfrey.

"Ahh Madam Pomfrey panicked back, dodging Catherine's attack, only to fall to the ground as she hit the corner of the table behind her.

"How is this possible?" Snape exclaimed in disbelief.

"It's a habit she's cultivated in her childhood," Dumbledore said as he walked over to help Madam Pomfrey, "but she doesn't seem to attack you. ”

Snape walked over in disbelief, and Catherine, who had seemed to be vigilant, suddenly relaxed and fell straight down, and he hurriedly ran over to help her and put her on the bed.

"Looks like she trusts you." Dumbledore laughed, waving his wand to make the rope that bound Catherine disappear, and she finally got into bed.

"Whatever the reason, Severus!" Madam Pomfrey held herself to the waist and ordered, "You must stay with her until she is conscious." ”

Snape didn't answer, instead sat down on the edge of the bed.

"That's it! Now—" Madam Pomfrey took Dumbledore's hand and sat down carefully on the other bed, "please tell me honestly, what the hell is going on?" ”

"I'll bring the Mirror of Eris in the afternoon—" Dumbledore sat down next to Madam Pomfrey and began to speak, but was interrupted by her as soon as he got up.

"What!" Madam Pomfrey shouted angrily, "You brought that thing to school!" Don't you think there's not enough chaos this year! ”

"Hear me out first, Poppy." Dumbledore raised his glasses in embarrassment, "I haven't figured out how to put it in the last hurdle, so I found an abandoned classroom and left it there, but I didn't expect Catherine to break in, and when I arrived, she was yelling at the mirror, and I called out to her, and—" The old man paused, "and she suddenly fainted screaming, and then, as you can see, I tied her here." ”

"Uh-huh!" Madam Pomfrey seemed to be aware of Dumbledore's concealment, but instead of asking, she looked at Snape, "What about you?" Severus, don't tell me you don't know why Catherine didn't stay in the dorm room, but ran around? ”

"I mistook her for Lily yesterday morning." Snape watched Catherine be silent for a moment before speaking.

"She went to buy a wand and found out I was a Death Eater." His language is very concise.

"I just showed her my Patronus." And as soon as he finished talking about the main points, he just shut up.

Although it was only three sentences, Dumbledore and Madam Pomfrey could understand how complicated the process really was, which made both of them look very shocked.

“We－need－to－talk!” Dumbledore didn't name names, but all three knew who it was.

They sat silently and waited until six o'clock in the morning, when Catherine finally opened her eyes slowly.

"Are you awake?" Dumbledore smiled and spoke first.

As soon as she heard his voice, Catherine suddenly jumped up and hid behind Snape, with a frightened expression.

"I really just tied her up here after she was unconscious!" Facing the questioning eyes of Snape and Madam Pomfrey, Dumbledore said innocently, but this tone of voice, combined with his seemingly wise appearance, really made people get goosebumps.

"You're tying me up here?" Catherine poked her head out cautiously from behind Snape to glance at Dumbledore before realizing that she was in the medical wing, and she immediately understood what had happened after she was unconscious, "I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to attack you! She said quickly.

"It's fine!" Madam Pomfrey smiled and comforted, "Severus has quieted you down. ”

"Huh?" Catherine realized that it was Snape standing in her way, "Professor! She shouted hesitantly.

But this title made Dumbledore think she was calling herself, so he looked at her, which caused Catherine, who was not yet fully awake, to hide behind Snape again.

The other two looked back and forth at Catherine and Dumbledore, and finally Madam Pomfrey asked, "Catherine, what happened?" Why are you so afraid of Albus? ”

"I don't know." Catherine came out from behind Snape and knelt on the edge of the bed, "Last night I saw Professor Dumbledore in that mirror burst into flames, and my head hurt. She rubbed her temples, the pain of the previous night giving her palpitations.

"Flames?" Snape and Madam Pomfrey looked at Dumbledore again with questioning glances, but Dumbledore only shrugged his shoulders at this, and then he looked at Catherine with a smile, "What else do you see in the Mirror of Eris?" ”

"I also see—" Catherine said after a moment's hesitation, "three people." ”

"Three?" Madam Pomfrey was surprised and asked, "Who are they?" No, what do they look like? ”

"I know who they are," Catherine said, looking up, "I've seen them in the library's graduation album." Two of them were Harry's parents, and the other was—" she paused, "Sirius Black. ”

"What!" Madam Pomfrey exclaimed, and Snape looked at her in equal surprise, only Dumbledore's eyes were filled with surprise, "How did you see him?" ”

"I recognize those eyes!" Catherine gritted her teeth and said, "That's the eye that dropped me!" ”

"Merlin!" Madam Pomfrey covered her mouth with tears in the corners of her eyes, Snape clenched his fists, and Dumbledore sighed before saying.

"Catherine, the night of Harry's accident, Lily's blood—" Dumbledore paused, "and it had been splashed on her daughter's clothes. ”

Catherine looked at Dumbledore in shock, she knew it wasn't as simple as "splashing", if she was really Lily Evans' daughter.

But Catherine didn't speak, Dumbledore didn't speak again, Snape and Madam Pomfrey didn't speak, and the atmosphere in the medical wing suddenly became eerie.

"A box I brought back from the orphanage last year," it took a long time for Catherine to burst out, "it contained the clothes I wore the day I entered the orphanage." ”

"It's in your dorm now, right?" Dumbledore asked.
