Chapter 156: Abrupt reinforcements

At first, Harry himself was still confused by the fact that he had lied.

When he came to his senses, he realized that he shouldn't have done that.

However, this has already been said, what else can I do, can I modify it on the spot?

In desperation, Harry could only continue with his previous almost instinctive denial.

Anyway, the Philosopher's Stone will be well cared for, as long as it doesn't fall into Snape's hands!

There's nothing wrong with this line of thinking in itself, but now, it's broken.

"Professor?"

Listening to Quirrell's sharp tone, Harry instinctively felt a little overwhelmed.

The body was on the alert, and the instinct to survive made him tense up.

It's just that he still doesn't understand this.

"What's wrong with you?"

It's just that the irritability in Quirrell's eyes vaguely reveals the truth of some facts.

"I see it, Harry."

Covering half of his cheek, the young professor, who had always been incredibly kind, let out a roar like a beast.

"I saw you holding it in your hand before, but you tried to lie to me before!"

Gasping for air, he no longer had the kindness he had shown before.

On the other side, Harry, who had finally reacted, also subconsciously retreated, pulling away with a short pace.

"But, Professor, you're probably just here......"

Subconsciously thinking this, Harry's voice stopped in an instant.

The spiritual light that swelled up in my mind was like an important thread, connecting those clues that were still fragmentary in an instant.

"You've been following us!"

Unable to resist blurting out his inner guesses, Harry began to look around.

"Snape, where is he now!"

Then, without waiting for Quirrell's side to give any more answers, the faint sense of disobedience that appeared in his heart led him directly to find the final answer.

"Snape isn't here, it's not him who wants the Philosopher's Stone, it's you, Quirrell!"

Seeing Harry say this, Professor Quirrell just sighed.

"You're as smart as your parents, Harry, but why should you be so smart?"

Covering his bald head, he looked helpless and miserable.

"Why the hell are you guessing, and why are you doubting me! As long as you don't know anything, just give me the Philosopher's Stone so you can live!! ”

He gritted his teeth, looking resentful.

"Now, give me the Philosopher's Stone, just give me the Philosopher's Stone, you ......"

'Gollum'

Suddenly, there was a strange noise.

It's not who is talking, it's not who is making any strange noise.

It was Quirrell's face.

He had already revealed a hideous countenance, and there was a ripple that should only be seen on the lake.

His cheeks bulged and his flesh swelled, and his facial features seemed to be distorted and changed at this moment.

"Tsk, it's time, but there's no need to keep adding."

Under Harry's shocked gaze, the big bald head in front of him, which had not had a single hair, suddenly grew hair, and his skin became rougher, as if he had experienced a difficult life for a long time.

Eventually, what appeared in front of him was a balding old man who looked a little obscene.

He was noticeably shorter than Quirrell, and his habitual curling up made him look like a rat in a stinking gutter.

Peter Pettigrew!

It's just that Harry obviously doesn't know him.

Although he inexplicably felt that the balding old guy in front of him was somewhat familiar, it obviously did not associate him with Ron's pet.

"You're not Professor Quirrell...... And who are you?! ”

Looking at Peter, he asked.

It's just that he himself doesn't have any deterrent effect.

His questioning was useless, and Peter clearly did not want to answer his question directly.

"Alright, give me the Philosopher's Stone......"

He just screamed.

"As long as you give it to me, you won't be hurt by it, and you won't have any bad results."

"No, no!"

Harry shook his head instinctively.

Since he had already concluded that the guy in front of him was the one behind the attempt to seize the Philosopher's Stone, it was impossible for him to hand over the Philosopher's Stone.

Because the lie is seen through, there is no need to continue lying, and there is only one option left!

"I must not hand over the Philosopher's Stone to you, absolutely not!"

After receiving the vehement from Harry, Peter even grabbed his own hair.

"Why are you forcing me...... Whether it's Jaime or Siris, they push me. Even you're going to push me! ”

Peter pulled out his wand directly, and the strong emotion channeled the wizard's power, and the tip of the wand stirred with a pulsing red light.

"Drill the heart and cut the bone !!"

A roar that bordered on madness echoed, and the scarlet thunder light bounced off the tip of the wand and instantly transformed into a touch of emerald green.

Can't hide from ......

When Harry instinctively tried to pounce on the other side, he was already entangled in the dark green lightning.

At the same time, the pain that crept from within the body made standing a luxury.

'Plop'

'Smack'

'Boom'

In an instant, a violent sound erupted from the entire underground space.

What happened?

After a sharp pain, when Harry came back to his senses, he found himself on the ground in embarrassment, even his wand had fallen out of his hand.

"Bad ......"

Seeing his only reliance fall to the ground, Harry instinctively rushed over and regained his grip on it.

What is the mantra that Professor Flitwick taught?

There is a spell that should be able to deal with enemies......

That's right, the Knockback Spell!

Just as Harry was adjusting himself to meet the enemy, he noticed that the balding man was wrapped in a shield and looked solemn.

However, instead of looking at himself, his gaze was directed in the other direction.

Following his gaze, Harry saw a white shadow.

“…… Isobel? ”

Why are you here?

Have you been following me all along?

He wanted to ask, but he was afraid of disturbing her and distracting her.

And over there, the girl, who seemed to be born without a certain emotion, just took a deep breath.

"That's all right, Peter Peddiru."

“…… You know me? ”

Suddenly being revealed by the Tao, Peter's eyes widened instantly.

He stared at the first-grade girl he wasn't supposed to meet, as if he was looking for something in her.

Only, he couldn't find it.

There is no figure in memory that can match it.

But soon, he saw a 'change'.

It's not the appearance, but the look and temperament.

A hint of hideousness appeared on his face, which was supposed to be as expressionless as an iceberg.

"Of course I know you, how could I not know you, I've been waiting for you to show up, for a long time...... Very long. ”

The tip of the wand shimmered with a fierce glow, and the magic shot away.

The battle is on again!
