Chapter 440 in action

"What happened to Ron?"

Harry hurried into the hall and saw Ron next to Hermione with a lonely face, and asked Hermione in confusion what had happened and why Ron looked like he had been devastated in the face.

"He's been eliminated from the wizard card tournament just now. ”

Hermione couldn't hold back her laughter and simply told Harry about Ron's participation in the Wizarding Card Qualifiers, only to be easily defeated by his opponent in two clicks.

Ron's wizard card level is really bad, he was beaten by his opponent, and now he is directly self-contained.

"Shut up, thanks. ”

Ron glared at Hermione angrily, the ease with which he was defeated by three in a row did take a big toll on his confidence.

"The number of times you've played wizard cards adds up to your two hands, why do you think you can beat the group of students who play wizard cards a lot?" Ron's thought made Hermione feel funny, it was simply whimsical.

"Wizard cards and wizard chess are both brain-based games...... Ron was about to say something more, but Harry interrupted him.

"Well, I have something to tell you. ”

Harry led the two out of the noisy hall to a hallway where no one was around, before he stopped to tell Hermione and Ron about what he had accidentally bumped into.

Hearing Harry say that Snape was in the classroom forcing Quirrell to tell him how to protect the Philosopher's Stone level, Hermione and Ron both looked uneasy.

"Are you sure?"

"Did Professor Quirrell really compromise?" Hermione asked in a low voice.

"It doesn't seem like it has yet, but I don't know how long Professor Quirrell will last. Harry's face was full of concern, "Perhaps, something we should do to stop this from happening." ”

"Yes...... We can't do anything. Hermione's brow furrowed even deeper, as if she was thinking about what to do with the matter, and she said to Harry, "Perhaps, we should go and have a good talk with Hagrid." ”

"Hagrid didn't believe us. Ron reminded.

All three of them fell silent for a moment.

Oh, yes!

Hagrid didn't believe that Snape would steal what Dumbledore had hidden, and he didn't believe what they were saying, believing it to be the trio's prejudice against Snape.

Even if Harry, Hermione, and Ron wanted to get the Philosopher's Stone before Snape, they couldn't get past Hagrid's three-headed dog, and they would only end up with their legs bitten off.

"How about we write a letter to the Headmaster, even if Headmaster Dumbledore doesn't want to believe it, he should be wary. Hermione suggested.

She knew very well that it would be almost impossible for the three of them to stop Snape from stealing the Philosopher's Stone, and that it would be fitting that Headmaster Dumbledore should be involved in the end.

"Who's going to write the letter?" Harry agreed, he didn't know if Headmaster Dumbledore would want to believe the contents of their letter, but it was better to write than to do nothing.

"I don't think the headmaster will believe you. ”

A grim voice suddenly sounded behind them, and all three of them were startled by the voice, and turned their heads to Snape's gloomy and ugly face.

At this moment, the hearts of the three almost stopped.

"Potter, what you're thinking is amazing to me. ”

The corners of Snape's mouth curled up as if he were mocking the three of them, "Maybe you should try, slandering a professor is enough for me to deduct a hundred points from each of you." ”

"Sir, I think you're mistaken. Harry replied dryly, "We never wanted to slander any professor, and we wouldn't do that. ”

"That's for the best. Snape stared at Harry for a long time, then turned away before saying, "Don't let me take my chance." ”

"Harry, what are we going to do now?" Ron was angry and upset at Snape's threat.

Harry did want to write to Dumbledore, but he was hesitating now, if Gryffindor did lose a lot of points, they couldn't beat Slytherin again. He also knew that there were many students in the school who wanted Gryffindor House to defeat Slytherin House again, and he couldn't ruin it all.

At this moment, all three of them fell into confusion.

In the end, Harry decided to write a letter to Dumbledore, which did not mention Snape, but said that someone in the school had set his sights on the Philosopher's Stone, and asked around about the mechanism that protected it.

Harry told Dumbledore everything he knew, and though it was just speculation, Harry believed that he had mentioned the pile in the letter, and the Headmaster would be a little more vigilant anyway.

The letter was written by Hermione, as her handwriting was the best of the three.

Halfway to the owl's shack, they met Professor Quirrell, a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor who appeared to be sick and barely bloodied on his face.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione all gave Professor Quirrell a smile of encouragement, unaware that their smile had made Quirrell a little baffled.

Quirrell's health was not good, he was terminally ill and dying.

Since, the last time Quirrell tried to make the Philosopher's Stone, he failed miserably.

Voldemort was furious at Quirrell's stupidity and punished him severely.

Today, Voldemort has gradually become stronger by allowing Quirrell to suck his life, but at the cost that Quirrell himself will not live long.

He was really dying.

If he can't get the Philosopher's Stone in the next time, and use the Philosopher's Stone to continue his life, Quirrell will really die.

Despite the very bad situation, Quirrell did not despair, he had found a way to get through that big dog, no, it should be said that he had found a way to deal with Hagrid.

This is really thanks to Albert, who yesterday when discussing with the other party how the wizard could face a fire dragon alone, Albert accidentally mentioned that Hagrid had always wanted to raise a dragon.

Since Hagrid is eager to raise a dragon, he can find a way to give Hagrid a dragon egg, and then get the other party drunk through some methods, as long as he knocks a little side, he will definitely be able to find a way to deal with the three-headed dog.

Of course, he needed to be very careful not to let Hagrid know who he was.

Well, it's easy.

"But what is it, is it a reward for racking your brains every day to answer that nasty little ghost's question?" Quirrell couldn't help but laugh at himself.

He had just written a letter to a smuggler, preparing to spend a lot of money to buy a dragon egg from the other party.

As long as you can get the Philosopher's Stone, there will be no shortage of Galleons at all, and if a person dies, it is useless to keep Galleon, so Quirrell is very generous, and the two sides have reached an agreement, just wait patiently for a while, at most a month, and the smuggler will help him get a dragon egg from abroad.
