Chapter 6: Hermione's Prayer

Harry hurriedly put his luggage and hurried to the hall, Ron saw through a window that the sorting ceremony was going on, and Harry wanted to rush over to see this year's freshmen, and at least see where Ginny was assigned.

……

"Mentor, I want you to help Harry, they will definitely be expelled this time, how dare they do this!" Hermione was holding a copy of the Daily Prophet in her hand, this is today's urgent special issue, there are very few little wizards who read the newspaper, but there must be Hermione who loves to learn, but unfortunately, Hermione saw the name of her friend in the newspaper today, they poked such a big basket, Hermione didn't know what to do, so she had to ask Bernard to come here.

"Hermione, you should know that Hogwarts rarely expels students, especially after Dumbledore became the headmaster, and even more so never expelled a young wizard, Dumbledore is a very tolerant person, especially for students, so you don't have to worry." Bernard didn't say a word that Dumbledore should have been extra tolerant of Harry.

Although he said a lot, looking at Hermione's helpless and pitiful little eyes, Bernard couldn't help but walk outside, and Hermione hurriedly followed.

……

While Harry and Ron were watching the halls, they were trying to find an unobtrusive time to sneak up on the Gryffindor table to cover up their failure to arrive at school on time.

"Wait,...... Ron, look, Snape isn't there! Harry suddenly noticed that there was an empty seat at the teacher's desk, and it was Snape's seat.

"Maybe he's been fired, and maybe we'll have a new Potions teacher. Oh......" Ron's "yes" couldn't be shouted because a cold voice came from behind them, "Perhaps, she's patiently waiting for you two to explain to him why you don't take the school train back!" Snape's black robes fluttered in the cold wind, leaving a message of "Follow me!" Snape gathered up his robe and headed for the basement classroom.

There had always been a gloomy feel to the basement classroom, especially when the fireplace was still empty, but the look at Snape didn't mean to ignite it. He was busy talking to Harry and them in a strange tone right now, and Harry didn't know if it was good or bad.

"Aren't our trains worthy of the famous Harry Potter!? So Potter and his stupid faithful companion Ron came to school in a different way. ”

"No, Professor, listen to us, King's Cross ......"

"Quiet! I'm not interested in King's Cross station, what I want to know is you, how, driving a speeding car! Snape uttered the words word for word, and as soon as these words came out, the temperature in the underground classroom seemed to drop a few more points.

Ron swallowed, Harry didn't know what to say, why Snape would know they were coming in a speeding car, until a copy of the Daily Prophet was placed in front of the two of them.

"You can see for yourselves the flying Ford that confuses Muggles." Snape read aloud, "Two Muggles in London are convinced they saw an old car flying over the Post House...... Noon in Norfolk...... Seven Muggles, you're exposing our world, I remember your father was working for the Division for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Items, right?! An enraged Snape turned to Ron and sneered.

Harry's heart twitched, but suddenly a familiar voice rang out, "Snape, don't scare the children, they're only twelve or thirteen years old, and that's the age at which they are allowed to make mistakes." Bernard said briskly, as if trying to ease the tension.

"Professor Rochefort!" Harry and Ron exclaimed in surprise.

Standing in the underground classroom, Bernard's brows wrinkled unconsciously, and then he took out his wand and pointed it at the fireplace, "suddenly" twice, and shot a few flames from Bernard's wand, and the flames burning in the fireplace suddenly raised the temperature in the room, feeling that the temperature was not bad, Bernard turned to greet Harry and Ron, and then turned to Snape.

From the moment Bernard came in, Snape kept his mouth shut and said nothing, and only when Bernard looked at him did he say coldly: "Rochefort, what are you doing here?!" ”

"Of course, it's for these two daring children!" As if he didn't feel Snape's low pressure, Bernard continued to say in that relaxed tone: "Snape, don't scare the children, since Mr. Weasley dares to do that, it is naturally because it will not break the law." Seeing that Snape wanted to speak again, Bernard preemptively said: "As for the expulsion, they are Gryffindor students there, and it is not your responsibility to drive people out of Hogwarts, and besides, it has always been the headmaster's right to get people out of Hogwarts." ”

"Very well said, Bernard, please leave it to me, old man!" Dumbledore's voice was heard, and when he turned around, Bernard saw Dumbledore and McGonagall walking into the basement classroom one after another, nodding at them, and Bernard stepped aside.

"Headmaster, they ......" Snape saw Dumbledore walking in and hurriedly spoke, but Dumbledore gently interrupted Snape's words, "Oh, we already know, I believe all the wizards present know what happened, the Daily Prophet article is very timely, even I didn't expect them to react so quickly!" But Snape, whatever the newspapers say, Harry and Ron are both Hogwarts students, and Gryffindor students, and they are under Professor McGonagall's management, and Hogwarts is under my management. ”

Seeing that Snape seemed to want to say something, Dumbledore continued, "Okay Snape, I see a good fruit pudding, and I want to do it often, let's go!" McGonagall, the sorting ceremony continues, let's go! I'm sure Bernard can handle everything. With that, Dumbledore smiled kindly at Bernard and Harry and walked out.

Professor McGonagall whispered a few words to Bernard and hurried out the door, she was still needed to preside over the sorting ceremony, and Snape glared at Harry and Ron fiercely before striding out.

"Alright, Harry, Ron, you don't want to stay here, go to the alchemy class, I'll get you something to eat." Bernard took Harry and they headed towards Ravenclauta.

Harry and Ron frantically stuffed sandwiches and pumpkin juice into their mouths, while Bernard said thoughtfully, "Did the magic work?!" Looking at Harry's puzzled gaze, Bernard explained: "Harry, you must know that there is a very powerful confusion charm at that entrance, and if it weren't for the failure of magic, Muggles would not have noticed you. But this is impossible, unless it is a wizard as powerful as Dumbledore, it is impossible to interfere with King's Cross Station! ”
