Hogwarts Homecoming

Chapter 220 Young People

According to Ron and Hermione's wishes, they were going to come over to chat with Harry after dinner, but Harry rejected their offer, and just asked Ron to go back to the dormitory and bring him his schoolbag for him.

"I missed some homework."

Harry sat on the bed and opened his schoolbag for a look, then, under the worried eyes of Ron and Hermione, he pretended to be relaxed and said,

"I need a quiet environment to work on my History of Magic homework, so you can go about your own business."

Harry's clumsy lies couldn't fool anyone, and Ron looked worriedly at Harry on the bed, about to say something, but Hermione next to him gave him a hard slap in the ribs and ordered him to shut up.

"Okay, Harry—"

Hermione glared at Ron, "If you need any help—"

Hermione quickly glanced at the invisibility cloak protruding from the corner of her schoolbag and said,

"Ron and I are staying in the lounge, you can greet us anytime."

Afterwards, he dragged the bewildered Ron out of the school hospital involuntarily.

Time passed quickly, and before you knew it, the sky was already dark without a trace of light.

As a frequent visitor to the school hospital, Harry already knew Madam Pomfrey's habits clearly. At nine o'clock, Madam Pomfrey left her small office and went around the wards. When he saw Harry sleeping obediently, he nodded in satisfaction, and then scolded two little first-year wizards in Ravenclaw who had a bad cold to go to bed, and then extinguished the candles in the entire hospital.

In the darkness, Harry pricked up his ears to listen carefully. After confirming that Madam Pomfrey had returned to the office, he glanced at the two first-year students who were secretly chatting intently several beds away. Crouching and sliding off the edge of the bed.

Talking about the ability to wander around the castle in the middle of the night, in the whole of Hogwarts, if Harry claims to be the third, then no one dares to claim the second. As for the first, Ron's two older brothers, Fred and George, tied for the third place one.

Now, although it hasn't come to the stipulated time, there are no people in the castle anymore. Along the way, except for a few fifth graders who are facing the OWLS exam in the second half of the year, Harry only found Mal Foo, Crabbe, and Goyle were walking towards the Slytherin basement, and everyone had a dazed look on their faces.

Something is wrong.

Harry glanced at the dark outside, thinking strangely.

He subconsciously chased after a few steps, and then was forced back by a disgusting stench.

Oh, yes!

Harry suddenly remembered, what Professor Brian said the day before yesterday before the interesting competition was that the victorious college can get 50 extra points, while the losing college needs to go to the Owl shed cleaning.

In that competition, Malfoy and Parkinson, who got a good chance, finally lost the victory due to a series of complicated factors. According to Harry's understanding of this annoying academy, they will probably lose all responsibility Because Malfoy Parkinson pushed himself and Neville off the boat at that time, this was probably one of the few bright spots in the eyes of Slytherin, so Malfoy should bear all the consequences.

As for Crabbe and Goyle, it is estimated that they were recruited by Malfoy.

Looking at the devastated backs of the three Slytherins, Harry instinctively wanted to show a happy sneer, but thinking about Malfoy's 'noble' behavior after he and Neville were pushed into the water, Harry hesitated. Finally, after shaking his head silently, he quietly walked in another direction.

On the third floor, on the way to Professor Bryan's office, Harry stopped for a while in front of Professor Lupine's office.

For this year's professor, who has a gentle temper and has been widely praised for his teaching, Harry also has a great affection. The attitude is also beyond the normal relationship between teachers and students.

"It's rare for a wizard to call Voldemort by his first name—"

Harry, who was hiding under the cloak of invisibility, grunted, remembering the last time the big guys went to Hogsmeade and when he met Lupine.

In the end, Harry still didn't choose to ring Professor Lupine's office. Although he was concerned about Professor Lupine's condition, he didn't want to disturb his rest.

Harry felt much more relaxed about seeing Professor Brian.

Professor Brian helped him get rid of his identity as the "Heir of the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets". So far, Harry hasn't revealed a word to Ron and Hermione.

He spent most of August with Professor Blaine. To be honest, it was a very pleasant summer vacation, because Professor Blaine would never pose an associate professor or an adult wizard in front of him. With his identity, you can feel that he is always getting along with himself with the peaceful attitude of a friend.

Tuk, tuk, tuk--

After looking around to make sure that there were no other people or scurrying ghosts around, Harry took off the invisibility cloak, crumpled it up and stuffed it into his schoolbag, then knocked on the door of Professor Bryan's office.

Professor Bryan appeared in front of him in gray pajamas and a plain robe with a dark green background inlaid with silver patterns.

Professor Blaine looked a little tired, because Harry saw dark circles under his wonderful lavender eyes, and Professor Blaine's gray hair was also a bit messy, as if he hadn't been out today. I don't care.

"Harry--"

Amosta, who knew who it was before opening the door, looked at Harry who looked a little nervous, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile,

"It looks like you're recovering well?"

"That's right, Professor Blaine—"

Harry said a little awkwardly, "Madame Pomfrey thinks so too, uh. She thinks I can be discharged early"

Amosta pursed his lips. He glanced at the bag in Harry's hand. He didn't expose his lie. He just stepped aside and said softly,

"Of course it is, so...it's a bit cold outside, we can come in and chat slowly."

That's what makes Professor Blaine so popular, he's always so understanding!

Harry raised his head and looked brighter, and followed Professor Brain into the office.

"Lu, Professor Lupine?"

When the door was closed with a creak, Harry blinked his eyes in astonishment when he saw a man in an old wizard robe and an obviously sick face beside the burning fireplace

"Lu, Professor Lupine?"

"Good evening, Harry."

Against the backdrop of the golden flames, the smile on Professor Lupine's face was extraordinarily soft,

"It's good to see you so refreshed, Harry."

After saying this, Lupine looked at Amosta who returned to the desk,

"Thank you for your care and help these two days, Amosta, I think I can continue my work tomorrow since Harry has something to ask you--"

"Oh, it's actually nothing!"

Harry said in embarrassment,

"Just, just. Well, I heard from Ron and Hermione yesterday, I mean, after I lost consciousness, you performed a magic. Well, it was wonderful."

Amosta and Remus exchanged glances, both showing uncontrollably amused expressions.

"so--"

Amosta said cheerfully,
