"Hiss......"

For a moment, Connor felt a sense of regret that had no beginning or end.

Is anyone doing it wrong now?

No.

Gabriel led the way, trying to get the students into the common room as quickly as possible, while Georgina, the prefect, naturally followed at the end of the line to prevent any students from falling behind.

This kind of thing is really normal.

It's just that now, this most correct approach, and the sensitive senses of the female prefect, have brought a subtle hint of trouble.

The prefect stopped in front of him so calmly, as if waiting for an answer from his side.

Looking at Georgina's puzzled but inexplicably calm face, Connor suddenly felt a toothache.

At this moment, a question even appeared in his mind:

If he doesn't usually act outstanding, but is a little transparent in Hufflepuff, wouldn't he have been discovered?

It's just a theoretical possibility.

Connor prefers to believe that both Gabriel and Georgina are serious and responsible people, and that any student who falls behind will be brought to their attention.

"What's wrong?"

Perhaps Connor's 'brainstorming' silence was a little long, and when he came back to his senses, all he heard was the prefect's concerned voice.

"If nothing happens, we should move on."

Georgina glanced at the empty hallway.

"We're down now, Gabriel has gone down to the basement with the others."

“…… I do have something to deal with. ”

After a moment's hesitation, Connor spoke.

“…… Important? ”

Georgina just asked.

"It's important."

"Is it important enough to deal with it now?"

"It's better to say that it's because it's the way it is that we need to investigate."

Although he didn't say anything, Connor had already distinguished himself from the rest of the students in his words and deeds.

"That's right."

Without asking more, Georgina just nodded slowly.

"Then go ahead."

At that moment, Georgina's smile was like a bright spring flower, and just looking at it made people feel extremely comfortable.

It was only in the process that Connor felt that lingering confusion.

Is that all there is to it?

She let herself go so easily?

You must know that even Isobel, who doesn't seem normal herself, will question him, but Georgina really doesn't say anything here.

Obviously, she doesn't seem to pay attention to anything in normal times.

"Huh? What are you still doing here? Isn't there something important to do? ”

"Hmm...... It's just the first time I've met someone who won't question me, and the last person who didn't question me was ...... Headmaster Dumbledore. ”

"Then I'm really flattered, and it's an honor to be compared to the principal."

Georgina was still smiling, and her gentle smile didn't show any flaws.

"However, I'm actually just getting used to it, our family has seen too many amazing and glamorous wizards, all of whom have shown strong talents as children."

It's just that that perfect kindness has an awkward feeling no matter how you look at it now.

Also, what about Miss Georgina's family?

Remember that she is last name...... Smith?

The Smith family?

Unfortunately, with Connor's relatively old knowledge, he couldn't figure out what this surname corresponded to for a while.

You may have to find a way to go to the library and flip through the books.

But at least for now, one thing is certain – she has no ill will.

From Georgina's body, Connor could only feel a sense of peace.

"Please take care of the rest of the students, maybe it will be messy next."

"Well, the lounge is safe, don't worry about anything."

Without saying anything more, Connor just bowed to Georgina and left in the most modest way possible.

He didn't hesitate, just ran straight up the stairs.

And in the corridor that was now empty, the girl prefect looked left and right.

After noticing anything else unusual, she left humming a gentle but somewhat inexplicably cheerful tune, and her slender figure jumped up and down with the troops, as if nothing had happened.

Connor, on the other hand, was running upstairs - the destination would not be the library.

Just go through the current situation from beginning to end to figure out the basic purpose of those guys.

The so-called Forbidden Forest riot and werewolf invasion are 100% a cover.

Even if you think about it from another angle, if the purpose itself is to let those werewolves into Hogwarts, then it will definitely not be someone like Filch who comes to inform you, at least it must be a big guy like Hagrid who can't die for a while.

And when this point is clear, then their specific purpose can also be speculated:

What Dumbledore was hiding......

But what exactly is Headmaster Dumbledore hiding?

Looking back now, Connor himself feels a little nonsensical.

He hadn't paid much attention to it, and Dumbledore hadn't told him.

Now, though, Connor doesn't care about that kind of thing.

It doesn't matter what Dumbledore hid, it mattered who would run for the thing he hid!

Narrowing his eyes, Connor held his breath.

When he reached the fourth floor, he gradually slowed down his pace, trying to reduce his presence.

But at that moment he saw a black figure—equally swift and swift—and the two met directly at the doorway that led to the corridor to the right.

"Professor Snape?"

"McMab ......"

Standing in front of Connor now was indeed the shadowy Potions professor, and he was standing there, clenched in his hand.

"It's all this time, why are you still here? Shouldn't you follow your prefects back to the break room? ”

"That's what I want to ask, Professor Snape, why are you here when Headmaster Dumbledore told the professors to stay in the Great Hall before we left the Great Hall?"

Staring into Snape's eyes as deep as the abyss, Connor clenched his wand as well.

"Is it possible...... Is it here to help your Dark Lord to ask for some secrets? ”

"How dare you ......"

Snape changed color with a bang. He just wanted to turn his face, but suddenly realized something.

"Wait, you don't know what's hidden in this room?"

"Why do I want to know this? All I need to know is that someone is staring at what's inside, isn't it? ”

“…… Are you doubting me? ”

Connor smiled at Snape's vague questioning.

"Actually...... I do not know. ”
