Hogwarts: Capturing Nagini at the Beginning

Chapter 85 The beginning of confinement punishment

Harry is overthinking?
  No, not really!
  The next morning, when the students looked at the Academy Cup score record as usual, they found that Gryffindor was 150 points less than yesterday. They thought there was a bug in the giant hourglass (the object that records the score).

Then, what happened last night slowly spread: two college bullies, and a Quidditch hero, actually fell into Malfoy's trick, causing Gryffindor to lose a huge amount of points, and Slester to secure the victory. College Cup.

The three of them suddenly became the target of public criticism. Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff turned their backs on them, while Slytherin whistled and cheered at them, saying strange words of gratitude.

In this regard, the three people had different reactions.

Hermione turned into a top 'scholar' who was deaf to what was going on outside the window. She always lowered her head and studied silently. Occasionally, when the library was about to close, she would pull Robin to quickly pick out a few extracurricular books.

Harry was already blaming himself and regretting, and being at the center of the whirlpool of public opinion, he was almost autistic after being sprayed by those people, and even had the idea of ​​quitting the team. Later, Wood, Robin, Hermione, and Ron After repeated bombings, he gave up this idea.

Compared with the two of them, Luo Bin seemed much tougher.

If anyone came up to him and mocked him as the biggest sinner of Gryffindor, he would throw out a one-meter-long list, listing the time, place, things, and people every time he won extra points for the house. , the total of zero and zero adds up to one hundred and thirty-eight points.

Then, he asked in a humble and sincere tone: Classmate, how many points did you add to your college in the past year?
  If a Slytherin student came over to thank him in a strange way, Robin would take out his ebony wand and invite him to a duel.

After a few rounds, everyone knew that he was a tough guy and rarely provoked him anymore.

However, the situation of four colleges jointly attacking three people gradually improved as the exam week approached. After all, no one wants to fail, right?

Robin, Harry, Hermione, and Ron, who was discharged from the hospital, also entered a state of preparation for the exam. The four found an abandoned classroom and reviewed until late at night every day. They tried to memorize the habits and uses of various herbs, potions Recipes and taboos, key points for casting spells, etc.

Hermione, who wants to compete in everything, threatens to defeat Robin in the exam and get the first place in her grade. However, before her ideal ship can sail out of the port, she is suddenly hit by a storm.

At the end of May, on the Friday before the exam, Robin, Harry and Hermione each received a small note while they were having breakfast.

【

At eleven o'clock this evening, go to the castle foyer to see Mr. Argus Filch, and he will lead you to the punishment of confinement.

Minerva McGonagall

】

Hermione crumpled the note into a ball, frowned and said, "Yes, we should accept the punishment of confinement, but why Filch?"

"I guess he recommended himself. If he wants to personally punish the students, it won't happen in a day or two." Harry guessed.

"Don't be too nervous. Can a squib still bully a wizard? Remember, bring your wand with you at night."

"What does squib mean?"

Luo Bin: →_→, uh, after all, you’ve been in school for a year, and you haven’t read any basic knowledge books about the magical world?
  "A squib refers to a person who comes from a wizarding family and has at least one parent who is a wizard, but who cannot use magic." Hermione explained.

"If he could do magic, his character would be even worse, and he would be unpopular with the students!" Harry said.

"I won't sleep tonight. I will just sit in the lounge and wait. If you three don't come back at dawn, I will go find Dean McGonagall." Ron said righteously.

After breakfast, they headed to the basement to attend the last class of the semester - Potions class.

At ten fifty in the evening, when Robin and the others went down to the first floor, Filch and Malfoy were already waiting in the foyer. “Look, who comes with the smell of bad luck? Oh, it turns out to be a liar~”

Malfoy sarcastically said that it seemed that the blame-shifting incident three weeks ago had left a deep impression on him.

When Robin walked to the foyer, he made a "Splatoon" mouth gesture and successfully silenced someone.

"Follow me."

Filch lit an oil lamp and led the four of them toward the hunting grounds, telling them about his old-fashioned methods of corporal punishment of students.

"Sooner or later, President Dumbledore and other professors will agree to use the very effective punishment methods in the past. For example, using thumb-thick iron chains to lock your ankles, and then hanging you upside down from the ceiling of the auditorium , until he admits his mistake and swears not to do it again."

"Hey, I still have those iron chains in my personal storage box. I oil them every once in a while. Maybe one day, they will be put to great use. Hey, besides"

After Filch laughed a few times, he continued to talk about other bloody, cruel, and inhuman punishment methods.

Luo Binxian saw that Xiaojiao's face was getting paler and paler, so he stopped him and said, "You bald, smelly old man, if you continue to make alarmist remarks, I will cast a silence curse on you."

"What did you call me?"

That time at the Astronomy Tower, Filch was eager to find Professor McGonagall to punish the bad guy, so he ignored the nickname. Now, when Robin called out this name again, he wanted to settle old scores.

"Why, you are only allowed to call others bad guys, naughty children, and big bedbugs, but you are not allowed to be called bald and smelly old man? Besides, if you have thick hair and shower every day, the nickname of 'bald and smelly old man' will not pass through your skin. Spread the word about Skin Ghost’s big mouth!”

Filch was so angry that his eyes bulged out even more. According to this trend, he is very likely to like Moody's double fake eye shape.

"Lestrange, I will tell the principal exactly what you said, and I will beg him to punish you severely."

Will Dumbledore listen to Filch's lies?

"To be honest, a three-year-old Muggle wouldn't know how to snitch." Robin replied.

"you"

woof!woof!
  When Filch was still about to accuse the other party, a dog barking suddenly came from not far away, and then Hagrid, holding an oil lamp, strode up to several people.

"Argus, what happened? I've been waiting for more than half an hour, but no one has come, so I have to come up and ask if the student confinement punishment has been temporarily cancelled."

"Hagrid, so we're going to act together tonight?" Hermione said excitedly.

"Ha! Little girl, you probably thought you were going to play all night with a big idiot tonight, right? Use your brain. You are going to the Forbidden Forest, not a pink candy house. Can you survive in the Forbidden Forest? Isn’t it certain to come out?”

"Argus, watch your words. I think I figured out why you were late. You've been scolding them, right? Well, your mission is completed. You can go back to the castle."

"I'll be back when the sun rises to pick up their remains that were bitten by werewolves."

After Filch chuckled a few times, he turned around and walked up the slope.

"What an irritating guy. Come on, you four, follow me into the woods."
