Chapter 100 Infirmary

Madam Pomfrey's healing magic is very good, and the medicine in the medical room is also very complete. After pouring down several bottles of magic potion, the fire dragon and unicorn, who were originally in pain from their wounds, calmed down and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Professor McGonagall was preparing to temporarily place the fire dragon in the Quidditch pitch. She was busy setting up a barrier with spells around it to prevent students from accidentally breaking in and being harmed by the fire dragon. The unicorn was able to rest near Professor Sprout's greenhouse, and the fat witch happily prepared many berries and fresh oat grass for the unicorn.

Other professors also came after hearing the news. It was the first time that Hogwarts was so lively late at night.

"Fire dragon!"

A strange little old man rushed to Norbert's side with gleaming eyes. His body was covered with scars, and both legs and one arm were wooden prostheses. At this moment, he used his only remaining hand to caress Nob's black wings and said excitedly: "Hagrid, you should have Tell me you raised a dragon!"

Professor McGonagall, who had set up the barrier, came over and said angrily with a straight face: "Professor Kettleburn, raising dragons in private is a serious violation of law!"

The fearful anger of everyone in Hogwarts seemed to have no effect on the little old man. He smiled slyly and said: "Don't be so rigid, Minerva! Where is anyone raising a dragon illegally? It's obviously a dragon living in the Forbidden Forest. A wild baby dragon broke into Hogwarts because it was hungry, and our kind gamekeeper just fed it a little food! It's not illegal at all..."

"Oh...it can still be like this!" Hagrid tapped his palm in sudden realization.

"Please stop encouraging illegal behavior, Professor Kettleburn! Don't forget that you are still on probation!" Professor McGonagall was originally very serious, but she laughed as she spoke.

"Yes, yes, sixty-two probationary periods. But it doesn't matter, I'm about to retire anyway." Professor Kettleburn spread his hands and said, then approached the fire dragon again and asked: "This child has a name." "Hagrid?"

"His name is Norbert!" Hagrid said proudly: "I saw him come out of the shell with my own eyes!"

"——He (he)?" Professor Kettleburn was stunned, looked at it carefully twice, and then smiled: "It should be 'she'... This is a little girl!"

"What?" Hagrid was shocked and stepped forward, while Professor Kettleburn began to teach him how to identify the gender of a young dragon.

"In that case, wouldn't it be bad to call her Norbert?" Hagrid quickly entered the "silly dad with a daughter" mode, as if he was worried that his baby daughter would be discriminated against because of her name.

"It's better to call it Norberta." Professor Kettleburn suggested: "It sounds like a girl's name, and it's very cute."

"Oh, you two, make it easy for me to find you!" Madam Pomfrey suddenly appeared, stared at Vader and Harry and said hurriedly: "Come with me - Dumbledore said you might need a bottle of tranquilizer agent?”

"No, we weren't frightened," Wade said.

But Madam Pomfrey didn't listen at all. She took the two of them to the school doctor's office, stuffed a bottle of tranquilizer into each of their hands without any explanation, and said: "Drink the medicine, and then go to bed early. It won't be long before dawn." hour."

When Wade saw it, he realized that this was the potion he had brewed himself!

"Is Dumbledore back?" Harry asked hurriedly when he saw that she was leaving.

"How should I know that, child?" Madam Pomfrey said.

"But you said - he told you we needed sedatives?" Harry demanded stubbornly.

"Dumbledore sent his Patronus to inform me."

"What is a patron saint——"

"Drink the potion and go to sleep, child."

Under Madam Pomfrey's oppressive smiling gaze, the two of them had no choice but to drink the sedative in one sip, and sleep quickly came over them.

…

The next morning, although no one had deliberately publicized it, it seemed that the entire school knew what had happened last night. They all ran to watch the fire dragon and unicorn. After walking around, the SSC members learned that Wade and Harry were also involved, and ran to the school doctor's office to find them.

"I heard that someone attacked the fire dragon!" Hermione rushed in and said worriedly: "Are you okay...did you run into that guy?"

"Don't worry about the fire dragon for now, I--" Harry looked around and said, "I have a secret I want to tell you about the attacker last night-"

"Wait, Harry." Michael interrupted him suddenly, walked to the door, looked outside, and then closed the door.

Ryan reacted and walked to the window to make sure no one was standing outside eavesdropping.

Wade asked: "Did you see that guy?"

"Yes, I went a little earlier than you. I saw that person's appearance. He was..." Harry couldn't help but shuddered and said, "Professor Quirrell."

The room suddenly fell into dead silence.

Harry was a little anxious and said hurriedly: "Maybe you think I'm lying - but no! In fact, I overheard it a few weeks ago - in the woods! It was the Quidditch match and the day Gryffindor won. ! I heard Snape threatening Quirrell to cooperate with him in order to steal the magic stone hidden on the fourth floor! They were also the first to arrive in the Forbidden Forest!"

Theo asked: "I heard that Professor McGonagall was here first?"

"You weren't there, so you didn't see it - Professor McGonagall was still wearing pajamas when she arrived! She was obviously woken up by the dragon!" Harry tried to explain the basis of his reasoning: "But Snape and Quirrell... they were dressed neatly, and they might have wandered in the Forbidden Forest before, and even attacked Norbert and the unicorn! It was only later that Hagrid arrived that they had to run away, and then pretended to be awakened and ran over, but they didn't have time to change into suitable clothes!"

No one spoke for a while.

In silence, Neville looked around and said something to make conversation: "Harry, I see you are particularly enthusiastic about Professor Quirrell recently... I thought you liked him very much..."

"I thought he was fighting against Snape!" Harry said in annoyance: "I wanted to encourage him to be tenacious! I didn't expect him to side with Snape so quickly!"

Looking at the complicated expressions of the crowd, he couldn't help but feel a little irritated, and couldn't help raising his voice and said: "Are you trying to say that they are professors, people Dumbledore trusts, so they won't do that? But I really-"

"Harry, calm down."

Wade suddenly interrupted his shouting, and his flat voice was like a basin of cold water, extinguishing Harry's excitement. He looked at Wade, but saw that Wade was looking at others.

"Tell him about that matter." Wade said: "Harry has learned this much, and telling the truth is not considered that we have violated our agreement with Dumbledore."

Harry was stunned.

"Tell me... what?"
