"I remember something very similar happening in Ouagadougou [the capital of Volta in Africa]. "Lockhart said in a tone of regret www.biquge.info "a series of attacks, which are detailed in my autobiography. At that time, I provided the local Muggles with all kinds of amulet items, and the problem was solved in one fell swoop......"

As Lockhart spoke, the pictures of Lockhart on the wall nodded in agreement, but one of them forgot to remove his hairnet.

Finally, Dumbledore straightened up, and he whispered, "It's not dead, Filch. ”

Lockhart was counting everyone how many murders he had organized and how many had been solved, until he stopped talking about Dumbledore when he heard the cat say it wasn't dead.

"Not dead?" said Filch, choking his fingers open as he looked at Lady Loris through the slit, "and why is it so stiff all over, as if it was frozen?"

"It's petrified. Dumbledore said, "But what is going on, I don't know yet. ”

"Ahh I think so too.... That cat was petrified—" Lockhart said quickly, as if he had just decided that Lady Loris was dead.

"Ask him!" Filch shouted through the tip of his throat as he pointed his finger at Harry.

"It's impossible for a second-year student to do that," Dumbledore said firmly, "and it requires the deepest ....... of the Dark Arts"

"He did it, he did it!" said Filch, his fat face purple, "you saw what he wrote on the wall......! In my office....... I mean...... He knows I'm a Squib, yes!

"I didn't do it! I didn't even touch Lady Loris!" Harry shouted, and he noticed that everyone was staring at him, including the pictures on the wall, "I don't even know what a squib means. "Harry

"He's lying!" Filch growled, "and he saw my letter with a quick incantation. ”

"Allow me to say that, Headmaster," Snape said in the shadows, and Louis felt that he was going to fall into the trap, and he believed that Snape would not miss an opportunity to strike Harry Potter.

"Maybe Potter just shouldn't have been in that place at that time," Snape said with a hint of sarcasm on his lips. As if he was thinking of Harry, "But we did have a series of questions, like, why did Potter happen to be in that hallway, why didn't he go to the Halloween party?"

Harry and Ron scrambled to explain, "We're going to Nick's birthday party, and we've got hundreds of ghosts here who can help us prove it." ”

"But after that, why don't you come to the party?" said Snape, his dark eyes fixed on Harry as if trying to see him through. "Why go to the hallway above?"

"Because..... Because ....." Harry's heart was pounding, and he realized that he didn't have any good excuses. If he said he heard a voice that wanted to kill someone, they would think he was lying, because even Louis didn't believe what he said.

"We were sleepy and wanted to go back to sleep. Harry racked his brains to come up with the reason.

"Not going to eat?" said Snape, Louis seeing a smile on his withered face for the first time, "I don't think the food at the ghost banquet is suitable for the living, do you?"

"We're not hungry!" Ron said with a feeling that he wanted to get himself out of the way, and if Harry was unlucky, he would probably have to follow suit. But his stomach was in opposition to him, and it was rumbling.

Louis rolled his eyes helplessly, what is a pig teammate? This is the most obvious pig teammate. Snape's stiff smile was even more pronounced, and it was clear that Ron had made a bad move.

"Obviously, Headmaster, Potter wasn't telling the truth. "My suggestion is that perhaps we should revoke some of his privileges until he tells us everything." Personally, I would suggest that he should be allowed to leave the Gryffindor Quidditch team until he tells us the truth. ”

"Honestly, Severus. "There's no reason why I can't let this kid continue to play Quidditch, after all, the cat wasn't hit in the head by Quidditch, and there's obviously no evidence that it's Potter's fault." ”

Dumbledore stared at them with his blue eyes, and even Louis felt pressure in the face of Dumbledore's gaze, can he be said to be the most powerful white wizard?
