Chapter 132: On and Off the School

Thank you, Feeding the monthly pass (*''*)

————————————————————————

Rosie had thought that going to the Forbidden Forest to find Percy would be a time-consuming task, but in fact, as soon as the group of four approached the Forbidden Forest, Dumbledore and McGonagall seemed to notice the anomaly.

"There's a smell of black magic over there."

As Dumbledore took the lead in a brisk walk northwest, McGonagall explained to Rossi and the others.

The breath of black magic?

Rosie, who was following behind, activated the insight vision and looked at it for a long time, before finally noticing something unusual.

It's amazing, I looked carefully for a long time before I found out the clue, and they actually found out in an instant, should I say that I am worthy of being the headmaster and deputy headmaster of Hogwarts?

Muttering in his heart, Rosie pulled Grice and quickly followed.

At this moment, the sound of some kind of creature running at a high speed was suddenly heard in the low wooded jungle in the distance.

Hearing the movement, Rosie immediately drew his wand and stood on guard.

In the next second, several huge spiders with thick black fur all over their bodies dragged a giant cocoon made of spider silk and crashed out of the woods in a panic, and quickly rushed towards this side.

Eight-eyed giant spider? They look like they're running away?

Doubts flashed through his mind, and Rossi was about to use a defensive spell to resist the impact of the spiders, when he saw that their feet were weak, and their bodies slid forward a few meters with inertia, trembling and not daring to raise their heads.

Seeing this, Rosie was stunned for a moment, but then immediately understood the situation: it was the presence of Grice that made them afraid of being like this.

"Dumbledore, save Hagrid!" The giant spider with all its eyes covered with white eyes trembled and said.

"Aragog, what's wrong with Hagrid?"

Dumbledore, who apparently knew the spider, asked, then raised his hand and nodded at the cocoon that the spiders were dragging.

In an instant, the white spider silk cracked, revealing Hagrid, who was trapped in a coma.

"He fell under the spell of a student covered in green light, and if we hadn't been nearby, he would have been killed by that student."

Aragog said tremblingly, "That guy is killing on a killing spree right now, and it seems that with every creature he kills, the green light on his body becomes stronger." ”

Covered in green light? Voldemort possessed by a Horcrux?

The image it depicts made Rossi instantly understand what it was.

Is the Horcrux Diary indeed in Percy's hands? That Lucius's words before ......

Not...... Mixed truth? Deliberately confusing time?

But what is the reason for doing so?

As his thoughts flowed, Dumbledore had already walked over to Hagrid to check on him.

"Luckily, only temporarily unconscious, Severus' invigorating potion can wake him up."

As he spoke, he turned to McGonagall again, "Minerva, we'll take care of it over there, and you can take Hagrid back." ”

Hearing Dumbledore's order, McGonagall didn't talk nonsense, only told "stay safe", and then took the unconscious Hagrid to Hogwarts Castle and turned back.

"Aragog, is that green light intertwined with Tom Riddle?" Rosie stepped forward and asked.

Sensing her approaching with Grice, Aragog shuddered again: "I don't know, I'm already blind, the image of that student was told to me by my children, they don't know Tom Riddle." ”

"Do you suspect Percy is possessed by Tom's Horcrux?"

Dumbledore asked, and when he saw Rosie nodding, his eyes froze slightly, "Looks like we're going to speed up a bit!" ”

……

Hogwarts, School Infirmary.

Harry, who had woken up, let out a loud cry and sat up.

Panicked and confused, thinking back to what had happened before he was petrified, he slowly looked around.

Hermione sat on the hospital bed on her right, clutching her chest in horror, looking terrified of what she had seen.

Claire stood beside her, seemingly comforting her.

On the other side, Snape, who turned his head at Harry's scream, gave him an indifferent look, then turned his gaze back to the hospital bed, and continued to treat Ron with the potion in his hand.

"Harry, how are you feeling? You okay? Claire looked up at Harry and walked towards him with concern.

Harry was surprised to notice Claire, but he remembered that when Grice turned into a serpent, she drew her wand and cast a spell at Rosie.

"Don't come here!"

Harry took two steps back with his hands on the bed, trying to move away from Claire.

"Harry, Professor Dumbledore said I was controlled by the Imperius Curse."

Seeing Harry so nervous, Claire stopped and apologized, "I'm sorry, I know I should have done something bad, I'm sorry!" ”

Hearing her words, Harry asked suspiciously, "Imperius Curse?" ”

"I saw this spell in an extracurricular book."

Hermione picked up the topic, "It's one of the three unforgivable spells, and the middle spell will be completely under the caster's control, and the brain will go blank. ”

After a pause, she turned her gaze to Claire again: "Claire, don't apologize, it's not your fault." ”

After thinking for a few seconds and understanding what the Imperius Curse was, Harry spoke again, "What about Professor Rosie?" And also...... What about Assistant Coach Grice, how are they? ”

"They're fine, they're out with Professor Dumbledore now." Hermione, who had asked about the news from Claire not long ago, replied.

"It's okay."

With a long sigh, Harry's turquoise eyes met Hermione's, and no one had gone to Tiglas to turn into a basilisk.

At this moment, Ron suddenly screamed, struggled to sit up from the bed, and muttered, "G, Assistant Coach Grice......"

"Ron! You're awake! Harry and Hermione shouted at the same time, stopping him from continuing.

Hearing the words of the two, Ron was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Harry and the two.

When their eyes met, the three reached a consensus tacitly.

"What did you just want to say? Mr. Weasley. ”

Snape looked at Ron with a strange expression, "What's wrong with Assistant Glais?" ”

"No, nothing."

Ron slurred, "I want to say, I want to say......"

"I'm sorry, but I want to take Assistant Coach Grace's suitcase, and I want to see what monsters are inside."

Hermione stood on the ground, "Because of me, I've read all the textbooks for seventh grade and know a lot about those monsters.

We were talking to Rosie about this before we lost consciousness, and that's why Ron screamed when he woke up. ”

Hearing this, Snape smiled, "Really? So how did you get petrified? ”

"Uh......"

Seeing that Hermione was speechless, Harry on the side immediately answered, "We don't know, we were petrified in an instant." Perhaps you can ask Professor Rossi and she must know what's going on. ”

The moment the words fell, Snape couldn't help but sneer:

"Mr. Potter, what happened to you, do you think you can hide it from me? Heh, for you guys trying to lie to the professor, Gryffindor deducts 50 points!

Alright, you can go back to your dorm now! ”

With that, he turned around and walked out.

As if he was pleased by something, he walked much more briskly.
