Chapter 70: Do You Know How Worried I Am?
After watching Harry leave, Professor Snape shook his head, and then made his way to the basilisk.
Professors Sprout and Flitwick are dissecting the basilisk and removing the materials that need special preservation.
Seeing Professor Snape approaching, Professor Flitwick smiled and said, "Pacify Harley?" ”
"She doesn't need me to appease her, she's much better than most of the students!" Professor Snape muttered quietly.
"yes, it's Lily's child after all." Professor Sprout also laughed.
Three of the four deans had taught students from Professor Snape's class, and they were all senior professors.
So the deans had heard about Snape's student days.
Professor Snape's poker face collapsed instantly, and he pretended not to hear Professor Sprout's words, but changed the subject:
According to Albus, these materials should be used by Hallie, after all, it is her own trophy.
But as a Potions professor, I'll keep it for her for the time being. ”
The other deans didn't have the slightest disagreement about this, after all, everyone didn't need the materials on the basilisk.
"I don't know how Hallie did it." Professor Flitwick didn't watch the previous blockbuster, so he exclaimed,
"But this kid should have a lot of fighting talent.
It seems that I can invite Harley to duel training and then take her to the International Wizarding Duel Contest to continue my glory. ”
"That doesn't take away my time," Professor Snape's tone suddenly tensed,
"It's been a long time since Hogwarts won the School of Witchcraft and Wizardry Potions Tournament, and she should focus on this competition first!"
"What are you afraid of?" Professor Flitwick sealed a bottle filled with basilisk blood with a spell and said casually,
"The tournament starts this summer, and the International Wizard Duel Tournament doesn't have until the summer vacation of her fourth grade!"
……
Harley didn't know what the professors were chatting about.
After using her stealth abilities to reach her way back to the Gryffindor common room, Harley dodged the dense crowd of students in the common room and returned to her dorm room.
The dorm room was empty, but Harley didn't care.
After a brief wash, she lay straight down on the bed.
It stands to reason that Harley should have a battle review or something. But after fighting for so long, Hallie was already feeling tired.
Anyway, Professor Dumbledore still has to talk to him, and let him help him with the review when the time comes.
Harley slept until about eight o'clock in the evening before waking up.
When she opened her eyes, Harley was startled.
Hell, she closed the bed curtain before going to bed. But what is this brown mass of mythical creature in front of you?
Hallie patted her head vigorously before she realized that Hermione's hair was above her.
The little witch was angry at this time, and stared at Harley viciously: "Harley, you actually did such a dangerous thing alone!" ”
"Huh? What happened? I'm not, I don't, don't talk nonsense! Hallie subconsciously responded.
"You still want to quibble? Professor McGonagall has told us everything, and now the whole school knows that she has killed the basilisk alone and defeated the dark wizard Lockhart! ”
Hermione said angrily, glaring at Harley with small eyes,
"You ran away to do such a dangerous thing alone! I said I couldn't find you when I went back to the dormitory!
Do you know how worried I am? I'm just your friend......"
As she spoke, Hermione's eyes reddened slightly.
Hallie stretched, and while Hermione was defenseless, she expertly pressed Hermione's head down.
Hermione was startled, and just as she wanted to struggle, she heard Harry's lazy voice: "Don't talk, I'm tired, let me lie down for a while." ”
Hermione was annoyed, but didn't move. She just rolled over, kicked off her slippers, and climbed up.
There was silence in the dormitory for a while, and then Hermione spoke: "Such a big basilisk, you really killed it alone?" ”
"Of course." Hallie rolled over, but then felt a little uncomfortable in her chest, so she chose to flip back over.
"What did the professors say in the auditorium earlier? Tell me about it, I'm a little curious. ”
"It's nothing important." Hermione's expression became serious,
"It's the professors who go back to their respective houses and announce that everything has been settled by you.
The so-called Slytherin heir who opened the Chamber of Secrets was Professor Lockhart, oh, he's not a professor now.
Anyway, he's been pretending to be an evil dark wizard.
As for the anti-dark magic deeds he did, they were all obtained by stealing other people's experiences.
And you defeated him alone in the Great Hall, and you also killed the Slytherin monster alone, a giant millennium basilisk.
Professor Lockhart, knowing that there was no hope of escape, chose to commit suicide using evil dark magic, leaving only one head. ”
At this, Hermione shuddered, apparently she couldn't forget Professor Lockhart's blood-stained head.
Hallie was stunned for a moment, then reacted that this was Professor McGonagall's explanation after they had polished it.
After all, if you tell the young wizards that you killed Professor Lockhart with your own hands, you will more or less give a bad impression to others.
Poor Professor Lockhart, as the only villain deceased, naturally he has to carry all the pots, and he can't even know how he died, and he will be whipped repeatedly in the future.
"Alright, I'm starving, I'm going to the kitchen to get something to eat. Do you want to come along? Hallie stretched, and suddenly found that the clothes on her body had not been changed.
"Oh, by the way, I'm going to take a shower and change my robe before I go."
"I'm not going. Something so big has happened, the professors are going to talk to you. Hermione sat up and refused.
Although Harley didn't say it, the intelligent Hermione naturally understood that the professors would not sit idly by and watch such a big thing happen.
In that case, she didn't bother Harley to get down to business.
"Besides, your sheets need to be changed," Hermione pointed to the bed, which was a mixture of frost, dust, and blood.
"I'll help you change your bed right away, and I've brought a spare sheet and cover."
As she said this, Hermione's eyes looked down, and her cheeks were a little rosy.
Hallie chuckled and rubbed Hermione's hair, "Then it's up to you, dear Miss Granger."
I'll leave you alone, and I'll tell you the details of my battle tomorrow. ”
After completely washing away the smell of blood and the aftermath of the battle, Harley feasted in the kitchen again.
"Ah, that's so comfortable! I don't know if Professor Dumbledore has come back or not, why don't you go to the vicinity of the Headmaster's office and find a portrait to ask? ”
Harley thought as she walked upstairs.
Soon, though, Harley found out if the headmaster had returned.
Because Fawkes suddenly appeared in mid-air and landed on Harley's shoulder.
"Good evening, Fawkes. What are you doing here? Is Professor Dumbledore back? Hallie stroked Fawkes's feathers,
"Did Professor Dumbledore tell you to take me there?"
Fawkes nodded, and let out a low sigh.
"Let's go, then."
A man and a bird turned into a ball of fire and disappeared down the stairs.
When they reappeared, the two were already in the principal's office.
