That night, when Scott came out of the Transfiguration Club, he saw Harry standing around the corner at the other end of the hallway waving to him.

Scott walks over and finds Ron and Hermione too.

"Scott, the outcome of the trial is in." Harry's face was not very good, "It turned out to be like you said, Hagrid was fine, but Buckbeak was sentenced to death. ”

As expected, Scott thought.

He asked, "When will it be executed." ”

"Hagrid said it was the day before the Christmas holidays." Hermione replied.

Harry asked Scott expectantly, "Is there any better way to save Buckbeak?" ”

Scott shook his head.

A look of disappointment appeared on Harry's face, "Is there really no way, Hagrid is very sad, he has taken a big blow. ”

"Of course you can save Buckbeak." Scott lowered his voice, "But that's against the law. ”

Harry and Ron's eyes lit up when they heard this, but Hermione was the first to object, "No...... No, we can't! ”

She glared at Harry and Ron fiercely, "This might end you up in jail!" ”

Ron was unconvinced and said, "Since Scott said so, there must be a way not to go to jail!" ”

"There is no such way!" Hermione glared at him, "Who knows if anyone will find out!" ”

“……”

Scott looked at the three of them helplessly, and gestured to them to whisper.

"The only safe way is with Hermione." He glanced at Hermione meaningfully, "Honestly, I wouldn't advise you to do that. ”

"What's the solution?" Harry and Ron hurriedly looked at Hermione.

Hermione hurriedly said, "No, don't even think about it!" ”

She stared at Scott with an unkind face, "You know, Professor McGonagall gave it to me out of trust, and I can't abuse its powers!" ”

Scott smiled, "Of course, it's up to you to weigh the pros and cons, and as I said, I don't recommend you doing that. ”

Hermione was visibly angry, "You shouldn't have brought it up...... I mean, it's a matter of secrecy! ”

"If you have a way to save that poor beast, why not?" Ron asked, puzzled.

"You don't know anything!" Hermione glared at him viciously.

"Of course...... You don't want to help Hagrid's words. Ron's face was also a little ugly, "Of course we can't force you. ”

"I told you, you don't know anything!"

Hermione glared at Scott again, turned and ran away in a rage.

"Why is she so angry?" Ron asked Harry and Scott with a blank look on his face.

Harry's expression was a little subtle, "You shouldn't have talked to Hermione like that, Ron, we should have discussed it with her." ”

"What are you discussing?" Ron pouted, "Didn't you hear, she didn't want to." ”

Harry turned his head to look at Scott, and his eyes seemed to say, look, you caused this.

Scott stepped forward and patted Harry on the shoulder, "Perhaps, it's best to make Hagrid stronger." ”

With that, he walked past the two boys and left directly.

Harry asks if there is any way to save Buckbeak, and Scott gives a solution, but as for what they choose, it is not his concern.

He wouldn't be involved in it anyway.

When Scott returned to the dormitory, Eddie immediately mysteriously approached him.

"Scott, I made a point of asking some Slytherin about Caro and Rohr's cousins." He said with some smugness.

Scott raised an eyebrow, "What did you hear about?" ”

"They did go to Durmstrang to go to school." Eddie said, "Carlo is still in correspondence with a few Slytherins." ”

"What else?" Scott asked.

Eddie put on a gossip emose, "Some say that Carlo could have gone back to Hogwarts because his cousin didn't want to come back, so he followed him to Durmstrang. ”

"How is that possible?" Roger, who was on the sidelines, didn't believe Eddie's statement.

Milton said: "Carlo was expelled for attacking Scott, he even lived in a dungeon at the Ministry of Magic for a while, and there is no way he will have a chance to return to Hogwarts. ”

Scott also found this method not very credible.

Either way, Dumbledore still had the final say on the school.

Eddie shrugged his shoulders in the face of his roommates' suspicious eyes, "That's what some people in Slytherin say, the two who once ambushed Scott on the stone bridge with Caro, and they were Carlo's henchmen. ”

"They're just bragging." Roger scoffed.

"Okay, but that's not the point."

Eddie gave Roger a disdainful look, as if he was really distressed that Roger couldn't grasp the point of the gossip.

Roger stared at him with an unkind face.

Eddie hurriedly smiled, his expression gloating, "What I want to say is that although Carlo and Rohr have been engaged since childhood, Carol only likes Rohr unilaterally, and Rohr is not very satisfied with Carlo's cousin." ”

"Of course, this is real intelligence, and many people know it," he stressed. ”

He seems to have investigated this carefully, and he has found many examples from others to corroborate this matter.

For example, Rohr has not had a good face for Carlo since he was a child, and even when he was forced to dance with Carlo at a banquet, Rohr would have a reluctant expression on his face.

Rohr has even publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with the marriage contract between the two.

But Carlo has been very obedient and attentive to Rohr since he was a child.

Eddie was full of gossip about the news, "Rolle's passive resistance to the engagement caused dissatisfaction among the Caro family, who once wanted to change Carlo's betrothed partner, but Carlo firmly rejected the offer, even resisting his father for it. ”

Scott nodded.

It's not a dog lick, what is a dog lick?

If this is true, then the repertoire he planned will probably be even more exciting than he imagined.

He's even looking forward to it now.

Roger and Milton were unaware of Scott's plans, and they were not very interested in what Eddie had snodied.

"I don't know if this news is true or not, and even if it is true, Carlo is just a little embarrassed." Roger said with some disappointment.

Milton also said: "News like this does not bring them substantial punishment. ”

"This is the top-secret information that I spent a lot of effort to probe, and the two families are very tightly secreting this kind of thing!" Eddie was unconvinced and said, "As long as it is publicized, the Carol family and the Rohr family will be very embarrassed!" ”

"But it's just a shame." Roger said disapprehantly, "Besides, Carlo is probably used to it a long time ago!" ”

"I knew it was going to happen." Eddie was a little frustrated.

Scott hurriedly thanked Eddie.

He knew that Eddie deliberately went to dig up the gossip about Carlo and Rohr to help him vent his anger.

He also had to admire Eddie.

He told Eddie, "You're a Ravenclaw, and you're Muggle-born, but you can dig up secrets from those Slytherins, and that's something you can only do." I have to say, this is also a skill. ”

Roger and Milton agreed.

This made Eddie very proud.
