Chapter 51: Dumbledore's Letter

It's going to be hot over there. Harry on the side didn't bother to get involved

"Don't you want to play? Harry: "Betty and Hermione sat under a tree and watched the group play. He was found covering his forehead and his face was dull

"I'm not in the mood," Harry's little face wrinkled, "Somehow lately, that scar often hurts"

"Let's take a look at Madam Pomfrey," Hermione said

"No, it's not sick. I think it's a warning – it means danger is coming...."Harry said solemnly after refusing

"Relax, Harry" Ron was much more at ease in comparison, walking up to Harry and lying on his back on the grass "With Dumbledore, the Philosopher's Stone will definitely not be in danger." And only Hagrid knew through Louwey's methods, and he would certainly not betray Dumbledore. "He was disgusted with the big squid (which is the most enjoyable when he eats), so he didn't join the fight.

"Yes, it's me who has too much heart," Harry followed his example, lying on the grass and looking at the sky. In the blue sky, soft clouds and light veils curled up, and occasionally one or two chirping owls flew by. Such a pleasant picture with a gentle and dazzling sunlight makes people's eyelids fight.

"Hagrid would never betray Dumbledore. He won't tell anyone about the methods of going through the Louis, absolutely not. With this thought, he gradually narrowed his eyes, and he was very strict-mouthed..... Well.... It's strict..... Strict fart! Harry had a clear mind, and he realized that the carp was stiff and jumped up from the ground.

"What's wrong? Having a nightmare? Ron on the side had already begun to nap

"Very nightmarish dream! Walk! We're going to Hagrid right now! Harry's face turned white, and he ran away without waiting for a few answers.

"Hey—wait for me!" Ron got up and chased after him

"Betty, are you coming?" Hermione got up and dusted off her robe

"You go first, I'll wait for Ivey to come along"

————

"Where did they run?" Ivy came back soaking wet. In the end, he was unable to get the ingredients from the Twins and Lee Jordan's men. Instead, they drank a lot of lake water, and they all ran back and vomited.

"Went with Harry to Hagrid—stop! Stay away from me" Ivy was about to reach out and hug her, but was stopped. Betty pulled out her wand with a little disgust, "It's new!" ”

The fluorescence flashed, and he.

"Hmm~" Nodding with satisfaction, Betty took his hand and "go find them"

As a result, after barely taking two steps, the trio hurried back again.

"Hagrid isn't here?" Seeing how quickly they came back, Ivey asked

"Come with us! Must now go and see Dumbledore. Harry, who was passing by, grabbed him and ran towards the castle.

"Just checked with Hagrid. He told the man who gave him the dragon egg about the method he had made through the way. Hagrid said the man was wearing a hood and couldn't see clearly. One hundred percent Quirrell didn't run. Harry explained as he ran

"Where's Dumbledore's office?" Entering the castle, the three of them were dumbfounded. They had no idea where the principal's office was

"Oh—this way—" Ivy was about to show the way

"There's a sign, go this way" A sign suddenly appeared in the corner, and Harry saw it.

A few people ran down to the top floor

"Which one is it?" Several people were in a hurry to smoke, and Ivy didn't say anything, he wanted to see if there would be anyone to show the way.

"What are you guys doing?"

It was Professor McGonagall, with a large stack of books in her arms.

"We want to see Professor Dumbledore" At the critical moment, Harry and Ron were speechless, but fortunately, Hermione was more powerful.

"See Professor Dumbledore? Why? Professor McGonagall asked rhetorically

Harry swallowed, "It's a-" Before he could say anything, Ivy pinched him and said, "Professor, it's about the Philosopher's Stone"

"Uh-huh-" Professor McGonagall seemed surprised, and the books in her arms fell to the ground, "how do you know about the Philosopher's Stone?" ”

"Professor, not only do we know, but we suspect Quirrell trying to steal the Philosopher's Stone. I just wanted to report the situation to Professor Dumbledore," Ivy said briefly

"Professor Dumbledore has received a secret letter from the Ministry of Magic that he is no longer at Hogwarts and will not be back until tomorrow." Professor McGonagall stared at the crowd for a long time, a mixture of astonishment and suspicion, before finally saying, "I don't know how you found out about the Philosopher's Stone, but rest assured, no one can steal it." ”

"But Professor—" Harry tried to get it

"Enough! Porter! I suggest you go outside and soak up the sun and don't worry about these things that have nothing to do with you. And—Mr. Shafiq, I was about to go to you, please come with me. ”

"Me?" Ivy was confused. But she quickly reacted and helped Professor McGonagall organize her books.

"Thanks, you can go out" Professor McGonagall thanked Ivy and ordered the remaining four to be evicted.

"But—" Harry wasn't dead yet. Seeing Professor McGonagall's face grow darker and darker—"W-hmm! Ivy snapped twice, her eyes motioning for Betty to take them away.

"Let's go out first," said Betty, who walked out. Seeing this, the trio had no choice but to give up.

Ivy helps Professor McGonagall move the books to the Vice-Chancellor's Office

"Thank you for your help, Mr. Shafiq. This is the letter that Albus asked me to give you, and he hopes that you will respect his arrangement. Professor McGonagall looked at him meaningfully

"Thank you"

Ivy walked out of the room with the letter and opened the envelope: Mr. Shafiq, Fox will be nirvana tonight - oh, I beg your pardon for not being introduced to you yet. Fox is a phoenix and my partner. As I said, it's about to reach nirvana. Unfortunately, I can't take care of it because of my business. Considering that you are the only one of the new students who has been to the principal's office, and I have heard that you are a good cook, I would like to ask you to take care of it for me. Of course, if there is something important, such as asking for help or something, you can do whatever you want.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your help

Albus Dumbledore

After reading it, Ivey's face couldn't be more exciting. Oh - you don't want me to interfere with the trio's ordeal, you want me to save them when they're in danger, and you want me to take care of your pets by the way.

How can there be such a good thing in the world!

But when he was angry, he complained. Aside from other factors, the trio was originally his friends, and it was impossible not to die without help.

Besides, Dumbledore was also supportive of him. As soon as you arrive, you want the right to move freely, and people give it, right? So use it, take advantage of it, Ivy doesn't have the temper of being calculated and fighting to death if he suffers a small loss.

The benefits ~ are mutual, how can there be a reason for unilateral claims.

"What about people?" Coming downstairs, only Betty was still there.

"They all have their own division of labor and are busy. What's the matter with you? ”

"Well, see for yourself," Ivy handed her the letter

Betty took a quick look at the side

"Dumbledore seems to know that Harry is in danger," Betty said uncertainly

"Who knows—this old man is very bad. Betty, don't have much contact with him in the future, you know! Ivy said disdainfully with a stinky face

".....," Betty gave him a blank look. This guy is just dissatisfied with his day job.

Ivey suddenly rolled his eyes, "Hehe, you can go with me at night"

"Don't go" didn't even think about it, Betty refused directly.

"Hey—didn't you read the letter, it could be dangerous at night, aren't you worried about me?"

"Before I read it, I might have been worried. But now—now that Dumbledore has made arrangements, there will never be a danger to his life. In this way, it is more important to get a good night's sleep. ”

"Do you want me to remind you, your twelfth birthday is only a few months away"

"Don't talk about these useless things! I'll go back, you can play by yourself then, don't disturb my rest. With that, he left

"This guy - well, I hope Quirrell won't be too tricky, or I'll be guilty," Ivy muttered to himself

......

After dinner, Ivy arrived at the principal's office on time. He carried a pan and a large bag of ingredients on his back.

"Hello, Fawkes. You're not dead yet~" A mouth makes people want to hit him

Fawkes stood on his nest, looking curiously with his eyes open. It is in poor spirits, its eyes are blank, and its feathers lack luster. The feathers on the top of the head also drooped.

"Looks like you're about to reach nirvana," Ivy observed for a moment, "You've got a good luck tonight." Before leaving, my brother will fry two dishes for you, and he will definitely let you eat a good meal before you go on the road. ”

He was busy

At the same time, the Gryffindor lounge

"We'd better put on the cloak of invisibility here and see if we can cover us all." Hermione was thoughtful

"What are you going to do?" In the darkness, there was a sudden questioning voice

"Who?" The trio was taken aback. Ron's wand was pulled out

Neville stepped out of the hidden corner. Looking at the struggling toad in his hand, Ron cursed secretly.

"W-nothing, Neville," Harry said as he hid his cloak behind him

"You're going out again!" Looking at his empty expression, Neville debunked the lie

"Nope! How could it be~ We don't want to go out. Rest assured, Neville, you can go back to sleep. Hermione perfunctorily

"You can't go out! If you get caught again, Gryffindor will be finished! ”

"Neville, you don't understand, this is very important," Harry said seriously

But Neville wouldn't listen. He rushed to the exit, opening his arms to block the passage, "I won't let you out, let's fight!" ”

"Neville, get out of the way! Don't be an idiot—" Ron was annoyed

"Don't call me an idiot!" Neville shouted without flinching, "You taught me to rebel in the first place!" Neville was determined this time and said he wouldn't let them go.

Harry didn't hesitate, looked at Hermione and said anxiously, "Think of a way!" ”

Hermione stepped forward

"I'm sorry, Neville. But I have to. She raised her wand

"It's all petrified!"

Neville's body immediately stiffened, taking on a rock-like gray. He swayed twice and fell to the ground with a thud. It looked as hard as a plank, with only the rolling of his eyes indicating that he was still alive.

"What did you do to him?" Harry asked in a whisper. He believed that Hermione had a measured move

"Bondage Spell" explained lightly, and Hermione walked over "I'm so sorry—Neville." But rest assured, the spell won't last long. ”

"You'll understand later"

With that, the trio put on their invisibility cloaks and left
