Chapter 102: The Feitian Car has become a spirit

The sudden muffled sound surprised the professors.

"Has Hogwarts been attacked? Have Death Eaters invaded?!" Compared to the surprise of the professors, the little wizards in the audience were shocked.

Soon, the entire auditorium became a mess.

Professor McGonagall, who was holding a brand new sorting hat in his hand, his face darkened and he shouted:

"quiet--"

The auditorium gradually became quiet. The freshmen stood on one side of the auditorium in fear and uneasiness, not knowing what was going on.

"There are no problems at Hogwarts Castle now, so don't panic. The sorting ceremony will be held as normal." Professor McGonagall calmed the little wizards and at the same time turned around and winked at Dumbledore.

Dumbledore smiled knowingly, turned to look at Snape, and said to him: "Severus, could you please go and see what's going on outside?"

Snape nodded and was about to stand up when Dracula stood up before him.

"I'll go." Dracula said happily, "Watching a similar sorting ceremony a second time won't be interesting anymore. Maybe you can find some other fun by going out to see what's going on."

Before Dumbledore could react, he drank the wine in the goblet, straightened his robes, and jumped off the professor's desk.

"I'm with you." Snape followed closely, walked down from the professor's seat, and walked towards the door of the auditorium with Dracula.

Dracula glanced at Snape and found that his eyes had been focused on the Gryffindor table, glancing back and forth.

"Professor Snape seems to be very concerned about Gryffindor?" Dracula asked with a chuckle.

"No." Snape said, silently retracting his gaze, and the action of clenching his teeth made him seem to be speaking through his teeth, "I just have some objections to the house that stole the Slytherin House Cup."

Dracula looked with interest at the spot where Snape's gaze had lingered the longest - that was Hermione Granger, who looked flustered and anxious, but the two spots around her were empty.

Immediately, he thought of Fred and George's abnormal behavior again, and a glimmer of understanding appeared in his eyes.

"Are Harry Potter and Ronald Weiss here?" Dracula mused, and couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth, "Things seem to be getting interesting."

He quickened his pace, passed Snape as if flying close to the ground, and quickly flew towards the direction where the muffled sound came from.

Looking at Dracula who was moving so fast and didn't even wait for him, Snape twitched the corner of his mouth and couldn't help but speed up his pace.

His broad cloak swayed behind him, really like a big bat.

…

Dracula saw a dancing, or crazy willow tree in the distance.

It was a whomping willow that had been planted at Hogwarts for decades.

At this time, the Whomping Willow kept waving its thick or slender branches, rounding the branches and pulling them towards a dilapidated car full of holes——

Countless twigs as thick as finger joints struck the front window like hailstones, making the windshield tremble. A branch as thick as a battering ram was frantically pounding on the roof of the car, and A few dexterous willow leaves stuck into the broken car window, trying to crush the two little wizards sitting inside.

"This tree hits people so hard, let's run!" Ron yelled from inside the car and pushed the door open with all his strength.

But at this moment, a branch came through the broken car window at a tricky angle and gave him a vicious uppercut, causing him to fall onto Harry's lap.

Ron was stunned and watched blankly as the roof of the car gradually collapsed under the attack of thick branches as thick as a battering ram.

"We're done!" he groaned, looking at the roof of the car.

At the critical moment, the bottom of the old Ford's car suddenly vibrated - and the engine restarted.

"Quickly, reverse the car!" Seeing this, Harry's hope was rekindled and he shouted.

The car swooshed backwards.

The tree wanted to continue beating them, and tried its best to use its branches towards the car that was quickly escaping. It bent over hard, trying to get the longest branches to reach the old Ford car, almost tearing the trunk apart, and the roots were creaking.

"Merlin, it's so dangerous!" After leaving the attack range of the Whomping Willow, Ron lay on Harry's lap and panted, "Well done, car."

But the old Ford seemed to have reached its limit with Harry and Ron sitting in it. With two "Peng Peng" sounds, the car door suddenly opened.

Then, the seat tilted to the side, "kicking" Harry and Ron out, leaving them on the wet ground.

After two other heavy noises, the two people's luggage followed the same example and was thrown out of the trunk of the car.

What is quite humane is that Hedwig's cage was not thrown directly to the ground, but was thrown into the air. Driven by inertia, the cage door was opened and Hedwig flew out.

It screamed angrily and flew towards the castle without looking back.

After completing these actions, the old Ford car was covered with scars and big dents, and the roof was almost dented into the seats. It was steaming and rumbled into the darkness. Only the taillights were still shining angrily. With.

"No, you can't leave!" Ron opened his eyes wide, waved the broken wand he had just broken in the car accident, and shouted from behind, "Come back quickly! Dad will kill me if he loses the car!"

After Ron finished speaking, the car really stopped moving.

The light of the car's taillight gradually became larger and brighter, and its position gradually moved closer to Ron.

"Yes, yes, that's it, come back to me." Ron breathed a sigh of relief and said with satisfaction.

"Ron, something doesn't seem right about the car." Harry awkwardly carried his suitcase and said next to Ron.

I saw the old Ford car suspended in the air, the taillights still flashing angrily, the wheels turning rapidly, the invisible booster blowing the soft grass behind it, and Harry and Ron's hair was blown by the wind. It kept swaying.

"It seems... struggling?" Ron said uncertainly, looking at the car's performance.

"It should be right." Harry nodded, "Can't it disobey its master's orders and only obey your words and run back?"

"Don't be ridiculous, Harry," said Ron, "my dad is the owner of the car."

Even though the car was struggling, it still stopped in front of a confused Harry and Ron.

As if he realized that he couldn't get away, the old Ford simply gave up the struggle, turned off the engine and lights, and fell to the ground as if he was resigned to his fate. The swinging doors, trunk and hood made a "bang" sound.

"For blowing Sting——"

A voice suddenly sounded behind Harry and Ron, startling them both.

Harry turned around stiffly and looked at the figure standing in the darkness, almost blending into the night, and saw a pair of eyes with wine-red light flowing.

Seeing these eyes, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Professor Dracula, you are going to scare us to death..."

Dracula ignored them and just looked at the battered old Ford with interest, his eyes bright.

"Is this a car modified by Mr. Weiss?" he asked Ron.

"Ah...that's right!" Ron was stunned for a moment, and then replied nervously, "Is there...something wrong with it?"

"No problem, it's fine now." Dracula laughed.

Harry and Ron took a look at the old Ford car that was riddled with holes and devastation, and then looked at Dracula's interested expression, with an expression on his face that said "I don't read much, don't lie to me."

"Really, I'm not lying to you. This car is in better condition than ever before." Dracula stepped forward and patted the hood of the old Ford, and there was a sudden sound of parts falling from the car.

Harry and Ron looked at each other, feeling that Professor Dracula's idea was indeed...unusual.

"It's amazing. Such a simple magical transformation of a car can actually give birth to a faint consciousness under some circumstances." Dracula was still looking at the old Ford car back and forth.

"Do you feel unconvinced that I caught you back?" he asked Old Ford.

"Is there something wrong with the professor's mind?" Ron looked at Harry secretly and asked in a very low voice.

Harry nodded in agreement, with a worried look on his face, "It's over. Even a powerful wizard like Professor Dracula has something wrong with his brain. This world is too scary."

However, just as the two were talking quietly, the old Ford's headlights suddenly turned on, as if in response to Dracula's question.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you." Dracula chuckled, "Such a rare intelligent body...well, even if it only has a little instinctive reaction, it is not simple."

He reached out, starting from the hood, and touched the old Ford's roof, windows, trunk...

Whenever he touches a part of the vehicle, the dented, scratched, and broken shell of that location will automatically be repaired. Gradually, the old Ford car will become like a new car.

"I can't tell how your weak consciousness was formed, so I didn't repair your internal parts." Dracula continued, "If you still want to repair the internal parts, why don't you turn on your headlights twice? "

The old Ford's headlights flashed.

It only flashed once, which meant that it was enough to repair the appearance.

"Very good, then I will leave a mark on your body that I can use to determine your location, and then let you go." Dracula said, "If you can accept it, just turn on the car lights."

The old Ford's headlights flashed again.

"You are very sensible." Dracula nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his hand and drew a mark of devil wings on the inside of the car.

After the mark was formed, a red light appeared, and then disappeared inside the car.

"Okay, you can go." Dracula patted the restored car window and chuckled, "I will go over from time to time to check on your condition, and remember not to avoid me."

When Old Ford heard these words, he immediately started the engine with a "buzz" sound, turned on the lights, and jumped up very high in a whoosh.

It turned to face Dracula and swung its front as if to nod at him.

Then, it ran towards the Forbidden Forest without looking back, its bright taillights disappearing into the night.

Harry and Ron looked at the car going away with dull eyes. They didn't know how to understand the conversation between Professor Dracula and the car. They just felt that even in the wizarding world, this thing was too magical...

It wasn't until the car taillights were no longer visible that Ron suddenly woke up as if from a dream.

"Professor, you can't let it go!" he shouted. "My dad will kill me if he knows I lost the car!"

"You are his son, he will not kill you." Dracula glanced at Ron and said casually, "At most, he will beat you up, and it is possible to beat you half to death."

Ron's face fell.

"It's over...the car is gone, what can we do..." he said desperately.

"Professor, can you think of a way... just let Ron's car leave?" Harry hesitated for a long time and then asked.

"Didn't you see it just now? This car has become slightly conscious due to your series of operations. I want to observe it for a while longer." Dracula shrugged.

Then he thought about it, and it seemed inappropriate to just let go of other people's property, so he added: "Forget it, I'll cover your family's losses. Tell me the address, and a new car will be sent to you tomorrow."

Ron's distracted look suddenly came to his senses and asked: "Are you telling the truth, Professor?"

After receiving a positive answer, Ron jumped up in surprise and quickly reported the address of the Burrow to Dracula, thinking that he would be able to escape the punishment at home.

Dracula noted the location of the Burrow, and then he finally looked directly at Harry and Ron.

"Now that the car matter is settled, shouldn't you explain other things to me?" Dracula asked with a sneer, "Why don't you two take the Hogwarts Express back to school? Did you drive here by yourself?"

"Don't you think taking the school bus is not exciting enough and want to find a more interesting way of transportation?"

Speaking of "exciting" and "interesting", Dracula's cold expression suddenly changed, and his eyes lit up.

Harry looked at Professor Dracula's suddenly interested expression with trepidation. He could swear that when Professor Dracula sent a new car to the Weiss family, he definitely wanted to buy one for himself!

Ron also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After a year of getting to know each other, the students at Hogwarts basically know that as long as they can make Professor Dracula show interest, he will become very easy to get along with.

"It seems that Professor Dracula is over." Harry and Ron looked at each other with relieved expressions.

However, things didn't go as they wished. The next second they breathed a sigh of relief, another sticky, greasy voice sounded behind the two of them -

"It's been a long time no see. The famous Harry Potter and his good friend Wes are here."

Harry and Ron turned their heads stiffly and saw a large hooked nose and greasy hair hanging on the man's shoulders.

Snape seemed a little out of breath. It took him quite a while to get from the Great Hall in the southwest of the castle to the Whomping Willow in the northeast.

However, even though he was breathing heavily, the malicious smile on his face still told Harry that he and Ron were in a very bad situation!

"Good evening...Good evening, Professor Snape." Harry greeted Snape with a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Have a bad night, Potter." Snape said coldly, "I see that the school's very precious whomping willow seems to have been greatly damaged."

"That tree did more damage to us than we did to it..." Ron blurted out.

"Quiet!" snapped Snape.

"You two come with me." He looked at the boxes in their hands, and his mood became happy again. "It's a pity that you are not students of my college. I have no right to make the decision to expel you, otherwise I will definitely directly Kick you out of school so you don’t even have to pack your luggage.”

Harry and Ron looked pitifully towards Dracula for help.

However, Dracula seemed to be interested in the Whomping Willow again at this time. He stood under the willow tree with many broken branches and looked at this violent plant, completely unaware of the two people's gazes.

[To be honest, I have been reading books recently to catch up on updates. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. It can be used on both Android and Apple. 】

They discovered that the whomping willow, which was originally extremely grumpy, behaved like a harmless weeping willow in front of Professor Dracula, allowing him to stand next to the trunk and stroke its broken branches.

"What are you two still standing there for?" Snape urged.

Seeing that Professor Dracula had no idea of ​​​​rescuing them, Harry and Ron followed Snape's footsteps to Hogwarts Castle dejectedly.
