Scott said to Professor McGonagall, "Of course I wouldn't come out of my way to make a joke on you, Professor. ”

Professor McGonagall put down the quill in her hand, then stood up.

"Tell me about the situation, Mr. Trollope."

She stepped out from behind her desk.

Scott nodded, "I only saw the rat for the first time today, and Ron wanted Hagrid to help him take a look, he thought the rat was dying......"

Under Professor McGonagall's gaze, he quickly got to the point, "I didn't care until Harry told me that the rat had been with Weasley for almost 12 years. ”

Professor McGonagall's lips pursed a little tighter, deepening the nasolabial folds on her face along with the seriousness.

Anyone who is surprised that an ordinary rat can't live that long.

Scott continued, "I had a chat with Ron and got up close and personal with the mouse...... Told by magic, I'm sure it's the wizard's Animagus. ”

"Can you perceive the Animagus?" Professor McGonagall was clearly curious.

But she walked straight out of the office.

"I'm interested in how you can do this, but I've decided to trust you...... In other words, for the sake of the safety of the students, I have to confirm the truth of this matter, in short, solve this matter first. ”

"Of course, you're right, Professor."

Scott followed her out of the office.

He beckoned lightly to Roger and Eddie on the other side of the hallway.

Professor McGonagall stood in front of a portrait in the hallway for a moment, as if asking about Ron's whereabouts.

When Roger and Eddie walked up to Scott, she was walking towards the spiral staircase.

"Keep up, Mr. Trollope." As she walked, she said, "If the rats escape for a while, maybe your abilities can help." ”

"Okay, Professor." Scott answered, and quickly followed.

The group soon came to the spiral staircase.

Professor McGonagall waved her wand.

"I'm going to the eighth floor." She said in a commanding tone.

The ever-shifting staircase immediately created a path in front of her that could lead to the eighth floor, and then stopped changing.

Professor McGonagall couldn't help but smile, "I've wanted to try this feature for a long time, and of course, ......"

At this point, she suddenly stopped again and made a quick climb up the stairs.

Scott glanced up at the armor and statues scattered across the walls around him.

The abrupt change in the spiral staircase certainly caught the attention of many students, who began to talk about it.

When they saw Professor McGonagall, they immediately stopped their discussion.

When Professor McGonagall and her party walked by, many students unconsciously followed behind them.

The desire to see the excitement is very obvious.

It wasn't long before Professor McGonagall was standing in the doorway of the Gryffindor common room.

"Stand back."

She said a word to the students who were watching the excitement behind her.

Then he said to Scott, "Of course, don't come in with me just yet, for if what you say is true, I'm afraid it will alert the mouse." ”

Skoth nodded, "I'll stay here, Professor." ”

Professor McGonagall looked at the large portrait again.

The portrait shows the janitor of the Gryffindor common room, the Fat Lady.

The fat lady in the painting salutes Professor McGonagall outside the painting, "Good evening, Professor McGonagall." ”

"Good evening, ma'am. The password is lion's mane. Professor McGonagall said.

The Fat Lady smiled and nodded, and the entire painting moved away, revealing the entrance to the Gryffindor common room.

It would be more appropriate to call it a cave entrance, because the entrance was so small that the little wizards had to bend down to get in and out.

For Professor McGonagall, it was even more difficult.

It's hard to imagine Professor McGonagall crawling in pouting in front of so many students.

Scott noticed that a lot of people around him had craned their necks.

Especially Eddie.

But how could Professor McGonagall be disgraced in front of the students.

She quickly transformed into a spotted cat and gracefully walked into the hole in the common room.

Scott heard a lot of students sighing in disappointment.

These guys......

He couldn't help but shake his head.

How much I want to see the professor lose face!

At this time, the portrait of the fat lady again obscured the entrance.

"Do you want to go in?" Somewhat unpleasantly, she said to the students, "If it's okay, don't gather around here!" ”

But the students were unmoved.

They were curious about what was going on.

Especially the Gryffindor students who came with me.

It was already a surprise for Professor McGonagall to go to the Gryffindor common room, and she even brought three Ravenclaws!

While waiting, students occasionally asked Scott and the three of them what they wanted to know.

But all three were tight-lipped about it.

Even Eddie, who is usually big-mouthed, kept his mouth shut.

The students who knew something about him immediately felt that something big was going on.

Under their contagion, everyone became serious and nervous.

“……”

Scott, who was annoyed by the question just now, didn't expect these guys to "self-attack" like this.

Thanks Eddie.

Is this another layer of magic for the big mouth?

The crowd didn't wait long.

Soon, the portrait of the fat lady was removed again.

Professor McGonagall's changing spotted cat stepped out with graceful steps.

Immediately after, three little wizards rushed out.

It was Harry and his two buddies.

Then, the piebald cat's body stretched, and Professor McGonagall reappeared.

"Well done, Miss Granger."

Professor McGonagall took a cage from Hermione, who had a stern-faced, pursed expression just like her.

The gray mouse squeaked anxiously and kept circling in the cage.

And Ron's expression at this time vividly explained what it means to dare to be angry and dare not speak.

He glared at Hermione from time to time, and his face became even more ugly when he saw Scott.

"Let's all disperse."

Professor McGonagall said to the students.

At this point, several other members of the Weasley family also crawled out of the doorway of the common room.

Fred and George kept glancing at Scott, trying to figure out what was going on.

"Mr. Trollope."

Professor McGonagall glanced at Scott.

Then, she looked beyond Ginny to the four Weasley boys.

"Four Mr. Weasleys, come with me."

With that, she turned around and strode to the other side of the hallway.

Scott: They immediately followed her.

"Hey, what the hell is going on?" Fred asked in a whispered eagerly.

George then asked, "Why did Professor McGonagall turn the stool where Spotted slept into a cage as soon as she entered the common room?" ”

"It's funny though, the way Madara suddenly gets refreshed."

"But we'd love to know what's going on."

The two of them kept asking questions one by one.

At this time, Ron said angrily, "I'm the one who wants to know the most!" ”
