Chapter 256 Eccentric Dumbledore
After thinking for a moment, Dumbledore shook his head and sighed: "I see, Minerva, I will deal with this matter."
Seeing what Dumbledore said, Professor McGonagall opened his mouth, but finally took back what he had said.
He just put the Philosopher's Stone on the table, and then quietly left the principal's office.
After Professor McGonagall left, Dumbledore showed a trace of pain on his face.
"I'm sorry for the children of the Longbottom family. In order to defeat the Dark Lord, I can only sacrifice your interests."
"I believe that if your parents know about it, they will also be proud of your actions."
Harry Potter is the chosen savior. In order to build momentum for Harry and cultivate Harry Potter, Dumbledore even dared to put Voldemort, an old silver coin, into Hogwarts.
Now I have worked so hard to prepare for so long, but the fruit of victory is picked by Neville, which is what Dumbledore does not want to see.
Slytherin's lounge.
The lounge that was originally transformed into a study room by Leicester has once again restored its former grandeur.
Four leather sofas made of magical animal skins formed a circle, and a four-legged table was placed in the middle, with Gwent cards stacked on it.
Not far from the sofa, there were several hammocks hung on the beams, on which several little Slytherin wizards lay half dead, enjoying their leisurely time.
On the easternmost side of the lounge, there is a bookshelf covering the entire wall, filled with books and notes, and a group of good Slytherin students are gathering below to discuss issues.
There is also the most central area of Slytherin, a black leather sofa domineeringly visits the front, and on the opposite side of the sofa are dozens of small chairs, and there are food and drinks in front of the chairs for the sitting people to enjoy.
Under normal circumstances, few people would sit on those small chairs. As for the domineering black leather sofa, it was like a taboo in the Slytherin lounge.
This sofa was not brought in the lounge. Like those small stools, these things were all carried by Slytherin, and Lester brought them here himself.
The use is very simple. During a meeting, everyone should not be allowed to stand, so Lester took out some things that the system had drawn by lottery.
Not to mention, these leather sofas and stools are really comfortable to sit on. If it wasn't intended to be used as a meeting place, and it would be troublesome to move around, Lester would have planned to carry them to class.
On the chair, several little snakes who grew up with Leicester were happily discussing
"Our hourglass has a full 2000 points, which is a full 200 points higher than the second-placed Ravenclaw. As for the last-placed Gryffindor, it is 400 points higher."
Malfoy held the notebook, pointed to his own number on it, and said happily: "This time the House Cup will definitely belong to our Slytherin house!"
Malfoy's words attracted the attention of many people, and almost everyone was smiling, listening to Malfoy's analysis happily.
Although Slytherin's championship was already a certainty, they were willing to listen!
After all, winning the Academy Cup is not an easy task. In addition, under the leadership of Leicester this year, they have really worked hard. This Academy Cup, their Slytherin House deserves its name.
Even Marcus, when he knew Slytherin's house points, would proudly raise his head, expressing that he had also contributed to it.
For example, Roger, the captain of Ravenclaw, was the one who led the team to use dirty tricks to make him unable to play, so he also had credit.
Jedi also smiled and said: "I can't wait to see the expressions of those Gryffindor idiots."
"Thinking of our Slytherin banners all over the hall, these fools must not be able to sleep."
This remark immediately resonated with many people, hating Gryffindor is an old tradition in Slytherin.
Given the opportunity to mock Gryffindor, they naturally had to seize it.
"Yo, what are you talking about, why are you so happy?"
In the distance, as soon as Lester entered the lounge, he saw a group of people, so he asked curiously.
Malfoy saw that it was Leicester, and immediately repeated what he said just now: "Lego, our Slytherins can win the House Cup this time, thanks to your leadership, you are a great contributor!"
Others also gave praise without hesitation.
"Yeah, Lego, with you here, our position as Slytherin is getting stronger and stronger."
"That group of trash from Gryffindor, we lost a full 400 points. It's all thanks to you, Lai Ge!"
Leicester accepted all of these compliments with pleasure.
People are not sages, they wear thousands of clothes, but they don't wear flattery. Lester is not a saint, so it's cool to be flattered.
Of course, the most important thing is that there is nothing wrong with what they said.
I am teaching magic and leading them to engage in activities. Although it is for the purpose of obtaining task points, in the end it is not a bonus for Slytherin.
Therefore, Leicester thinks he deserves to be praised.
"Okay!" Lester waved his hand with a smile, and said, "Slytherin won the House Cup, not because of me alone, but because of everyone's joint efforts, so we should thank ourselves first! "
"Just right, the Academy Cup will be announced tomorrow. Professor Snape just asked me to decorate the scene. If you have nothing to do, you can go and decorate with me!"
As soon as the voice fell, there were countless responses immediately.
"Brother Lai, we are all free, we will do whatever you ask us to do."
"That's right, brother Lai, what you said is so serious, even if it's something, yours is the big deal!"
Malfoy was also very happy, and said loudly: "I can't wait to hang our flag on the dining room, when the time comes, those bastards in Gryffindor will definitely have wonderful expressions when they see it!"
"Go, set up the venue!"
In this way, dozens of people in a mess followed Leicester happily to set up the venue.
On the other side, inside Gryffindor's Rest.
Ron was lying on the sofa with a loveless face, next to Harry who also showed a salty fish expression.
"Why?!" Ron was very bitter, only feeling that his heart was broken.
"Professor Quirrell, how could he be a bad guy, he obviously teaches me magic every week."
"He also helped me deal with Malfoy, and said he would be my dueling mentor. How could he be a bad guy?"
Ron was very uncomfortable. It was hard for someone to pay attention to him. Unexpectedly, that person wanted to kill his good friend.
Harry was also very uncomfortable, but he said in relief: "Ron, it's not your fault that you know people but don't understand them."
"It's not my fault? Harry, it's not my fault, I'm the victim!"
