77. Neville Longbottom's Courage, the Real Gryffindor (Ask for Subscription, Fourth Update)
"I don't think you can just take their word for it."
"You should know the whole story."
"For example."
"Ask Harry."
Professor McGonagall nodded, knowing what was going on and knowing what was going on was all that mattered.
"Professor McGonagall! Potter was his cousin and would definitely go for him. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he was strongly refuted.
Professor McGonagall: "So. Miss Granger! ”
"Miss Beaver and that gorilla are in the same boat!"
Hearing this, Professor McGonagall frowned unconsciously, The names beaver and gorilla can't be said to be nice anyway.
However, the five's side can't care about so much, and since the matter has become a big problem, even if they offend Professor McGonagall, they must get Dursley away.
"I think we might as well ask someone else"
Snape spoke, speaking slowly, and his eyes fell on Neville, who had come with Professor McGonagall.
"Mr. Longbottom, for example."
The next moment, all eyes were on Neville.
Under the gaze of so many eyes, Neville looked a little scared.
Hearing that it was to ask Neville, many Gryffindors present breathed a sigh of relief, not afraid, Neville was a Gryffindor, their person.
"I, I."
Timid, fearful, submissive to anyone and everything, and looking very good at bullying, this is the image that Neville presents to others.
So he was not taken seriously in Gryffindor, and even his surname Longbottom meant "always at the bottom", so he was nicknamed Mr. Bottom in Gryffindor, and like Miss Jack-of-all-trades, it didn't sound like much at first glance, but it was actually full of sarcasm.
To be able to take the initiative to find Professor McGonagall today is an unprecedented and courageous time.
"Hurry! Tell Professor McGonagall that it was Dursley's violent maniac who attacked us. ”
Seeing Neville's refusal to identify Dudley, the five were anxious.
Dudley just looked at each other quietly.
Neville's brows tightened, his lips trembling, and he seemed to be fighting fiercely.
"Say, Longbottom, what are you thinking?"
"Tell Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape that it was the gorilla that attacked us."
"How long will you wait, you cowardly boy?!"
"Longbottom, you don't want to be in the future."
“.”
Seeing that Neville didn't answer for a long time, the five-person group urged again, and kept guiding Neville in their mouths, even whispering threats.
It's just that the more they say that, the faster Neville's body shakes, and the tighter Neville's fists clench.
'Not true. No, it shouldn't be like this! ’
Neville's memory is not very good, and he usually forgets a lot of things, even what he has just learned in class, and only Hermione will patiently teach him in the whole of Gryffindor, although he will often say a lot of digressions.
But it's also true that he didn't pull down too much of his homework.
It was Harry who gave him a set of experimental equipment and taught him how to operate it, so that he was not scolded by Snape in the later Potions class, although he still couldn't do it well when he was a duo.
And every time he met Dudley, he would be greeted by the other party, only he never called himself a little crying bag, but called himself Mr. Longbottom very respectfully, to put it mildly, this is the first time someone has called himself Mr. Longbottom.
These Nevilles remembered, and his heart was filled with gratitude
Obviously they are all good people, but why do you treat good people like this?
Unsociable? Slytherin?
No, that's not right!
Neville didn't say anything as they hid Hermione's shoes, because he was timid and he was afraid.
When they stole Hermione's textbook, Neville didn't say anything because he didn't dare get into trouble.
When they knocked Hermione down, Neville remained silent because of his cowardice.
As they surrounded Dudley and Hermione, Neville finally couldn't take it anymore and called Professor McGonagall.
Available now. They also have to force themselves to lie
This moment. The little boy with a round face named Neville Longbottom only felt that there was a fire burning in his heart, which became stronger and bigger until it broke out!
Neville gasped in his nostrils as he glared at his classmates from the same house who wanted to hide and distort the facts.
"It's you! You bullied Hermione! ”
"You hid Hermione's shoes!"
"You guys hid Hermione's textbook!"
"You guys knocked Hermione down on purpose, I see it! I saw it with my own eyes! With my eyes! ”
Neville told everything he knew.
And that's all about the five.
Quiet. It was very quiet, and every little wizard in the room looked at Neville in shock
Even Professor McGonagall and Snape were no exception.
They didn't expect Neville, who usually seemed submissive, timid, and easy to bully, to say such things.
Is Neville timid? Maybe
Is Neville submissive? Maybe
Maybe he has a bad memory and forgets a lot of things, but he is more careful than anyone else, and he remembers everyone who has been good to him, and he will remember everyone who has helped him.
In fact, Neville's heart is stronger than anyone else, and he is gentler than anyone else.
Neville knew that with these words today, maybe he would be ostracized at Gryffindor in the future, and he would be treated the same way as Hermione.
But he still has to say.
Courage is not to rush forward in everything, courage is not to be fearless.
Courage is to stand up when it's time to stand up, and courage is to face the odds in fear.
This is true courage, this is the real Gryffindor.
Dudley looked at Neville with great appreciation, he felt that Neville should work out with him when they first met, he felt that Neville was a good fit to follow him for the first time, and now. He felt even more so.
It doesn't matter if Neville's personality is submissive, people's personality can be changed, just like it is today.
Neville's courage is proof of that.
"Apologies. You should all apologize to Hermione, and you should all apologize to Mr. Dursley. ”
Neville yelled at the other Gryffindor wizards around him.
Since I've said so much, I don't care about one or two more sentences.
Along with his statement, the little wizard who was originally unaware lowered his head in shame, as for whether they were really ashamed or something else, only they knew, and they just bowed their heads, maybe there would be a trace of guilt in their hearts, but it would soon pass.
It also takes courage to apologize and admit mistakes.
It's a pity. Although Gryffindor is in the midst of courage, many people obviously do not have such courage.
Dudley looked around at the Gryffindor wizards, and no one dared to look at them under eye contact, all of them bowed their heads and quietly waited for the two professors to deal with them.
It's boring. Also disappointed
False Gryffindors, they don't deserve the name.
Neville is the real Gryffindor.
They owe me an apology, and they owe Hermione an apology.
How many of them can really be considered Gryffindors in the original book?
