Chapter 35: The Patronus Charm
Leaving the Gryffindor dormitory, the two walked on a free-roaming magic staircase.
"Professor Dumbledore, I don't understand how you would allow the Dementors to search the students' dormitories, knowing that these little ones have no ability to fight the Dementors at all, this is a very dangerous thing to do." Qi Fang was filled with righteous indignation, while secretly observing Dumbledore's reaction.
"This is a private act of the Ministry of Magic, without my consent." Deng Li said more. "I've lodged a protest with the Ministry of Magic and believe it won't happen again."
"I hope so." Qi Fang sighed, and said, "This action of the Ministry of Magic is really too impulsive, and it has no concern for the safety of the students at all, it seems that Sirius Black's prison break has a very big impact on them...... Oh, by the way, has the professor found the whereabouts of the little wolf star? ”
"Not yet." Dundedo whispered. "But the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic spotted Sirius Black's trail of coming this way, based on his traces. They speculate that Sirius' destination is Hogwarts...... Don't make a statement about it, so as not to cause panic among the students. ”
"I see, Professor. If nothing else, I'll go and rest first. Qi Fang nodded.
"Good night, Mr. Qi. I'm going to go around the other places, and hopefully the little ones aren't hurt. "Dumbledore left on the magic staircase.
……
The next morning, at breakfast time, the hall was bustling with students talking about what had happened last night, and they were so impressed by the terrible Dementors that many were so frightened that they couldn't sleep with obvious dark circles on their faces.
"Hey, Potter."
Harry Potter came to the Gryffindor table, and as soon as he sat down, he heard someone behind him calling his name, this voice was very familiar, even if he closed his eyes, he could imagine the sound owner's crazy and cool appearance.
"I heard that you fainted with fright, like a sheep going crazy, is it true?"
Harry Potter looked back and saw Malfoy's sneering expression, and as he spoke, Goyle was still making a comatose motion next to him, the movement was very exaggerated, trembling and trembling, as if he was going crazy.
"Hahahaha......"
The Slytherin students laughed exaggeratedly, and some made fun of him, pinching their throats and screaming, "Potter! The Dementors are coming, Potter! Oh~~~~"
It caused everyone to laugh wildly.
Harry Potter's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, his eyes were bloodshot, and his anger rushed to the heavenly spirit cover, and there was a bloodthirsty urge in his heart to kill all these guys who made fun of him.
"Harry, ignore these boring bastards." Ron said.
"Leave them alone, these guys don't deserve your anger." Hermione followed.
Harry Potter sat down with a look of hatred, frowned and looked at the few people next to him, and gritted his teeth: "Damn, how did they know about this, who spread it." ”
His gaze fell on Ron, Neville, Dean, and Seamoth, who lived in the same dorm room as him, and who knew only about his coma.
Dean Thomas and Seamus Finigan avoided his gaze and buried their heads in eating, a little weak-hearted. They had told a few of their friends about it, but it was unknown how it got to Slytherin.
"Damn!" Harry Potter snapped up, glared at them indignantly, and turned to leave.
"Harry, where are you going?"
"Skipping breakfast?"
Ron and Hermione shouted, but Harry didn't look back and walked away quickly.
Outside the castle, Harry Potter sat alone on the grass, looking down and thinking, looking full of worries, exuding a thick gloomy atmosphere.
"Hi Harry." Then Ginny came over and sat down beside him.
"Hey!" Seeing Ginny, Harry Potter had a rare smile on his face.
"What are you thinking?" Ginny held her cheeks and looked at him without blinking, reluctant to look away.
"Ginny, am I really bad?" Harry Potter was in a very low mood, had some low self-esteem, and muttered to himself. "The Dementors ran to the dorm, Ron, Dean, and Seamus were all awake, and even the most timid and cowardly Neville had no accident, and I was the only one who passed out."
"How could you think that? You are the boy who never dies, the savior who defeated the Dark Lord! Ginny shouted encouragement to Harry Potter, and then added, "Dementors are the most evil magical creatures in the world, very terrifying, and there is no way for younger students to deal with them, and fear is a normal thing." When we learn the Patronus Charm, we won't be afraid of them anymore. ”
"Patronus Charm?" Harry Potter asked in confusion.
"Yes, the Patronus Charm is the Dementor's nemesis, and it's very effective." Ginny drew her wand and shook it, reciting a spell from her mouth, and the tip of the wand suddenly lit up, releasing a burst of holy light, like a shield in front of her.
"This is the Patronus Charm?!" Harry Potter looked at the magical glow in amazement, muttered to himself, and looked at Ginny. "How do you know this spell?"
"Uh, I saw it in a magic book." Ginny's eyes flickered. She wasn't telling the truth, the Patronus Charm was told to her by Tom Riddle in the diary.
Yesterday the Dementors struck and caused a lot of uproar, and Ginny wrote about it in her journal, pouring out her feelings and asking it how to deal with the Dementors.
Tom Riddle taught her the Patronus Charm, which is not very demanding on the caster, and the focus is on happy emotions, as long as the happy emotions are strong enough, it is not difficult to cast the Patronus Charm.
"How do I use the Patronus Charm?" Harry Potter didn't think much of it, and then asked.
Ginny told Harry Potter exactly how to release the Patronus Charm, and she didn't hide it at all. Harry Potter began to try the method Ginny had said, and tried several times in a row, and every step was completely in place, but all of them failed, and he couldn't summon the Patronus at all.
"Why can't I release it?" Harry Potter was very annoyed, and even Ginny, who was younger than him, was able to successfully cast the Patronus Charm, but he couldn't, and this feeling made him almost crazy.
"Harry, don't do this, calm down. It's not your fault, it must be that I don't teach well. Ginny hurriedly comforted.
"Am I really so bad that I can't even learn a simple spell?" Harry fell silent, and sat on the floor in despair, looking very depressed, and fell into self-denial.
"Don't be in a hurry, get here first, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Let me go back and think about it, something must have gone wrong. Ginny raced back to her dorm room, pulled out Tom Riddle's journal, and wrote down the problems she was experiencing.
