Chapter 245 Principal’s Task

"She doesn't seem to believe what we said." Harry was a little disappointed and looked at the retreating figure of Professor McGonagall. "What should I do? Snape will definitely steal the Philosopher's Stone tonight."

Ron looked at him doubtfully, "How do you know he will go tonight? He can steal rocks while we are on vacation. There will be no one in the school at that time, right?"

"Because he's got all the elements together," Harry explained. "You see, he already knows how to get past Fluffy, and Professor Quirrell..." He shrugged.

"Professor Quirrell must have been defeated by him." Hermione was a little worried, "He didn't come to class for the last half month."

Harry nodded in agreement, "Yes, Professor Quirrell must have told Snape his methods of breaking the defensive spells. It's so abominable that he actually coerced poor Professor Quirrell!" He said angrily He growled, and then said with some concern, "Besides, I think the letter sent to Dumbledore tonight was not from the Ministry of Magic, but was sent to him by Snape."

Hermione gasped, "Teach, Professor."

Harry and Ron looked back subconsciously, and saw Professor Snape's figure only a few meters away from them.

"Good afternoon..." There was irrepressible joy in his voice, "Why are you here."

The three of them looked at each other.

Hermione pretended not to care and said, "We were discussing where to go."

Harry and Ron secretly gave her a thumbs up.

"Really, where are you going to play?" Snape casually added, "You'd better not run around in the castle, it will make people think you want to do bad things... I think Gryffindor's credits are also I can’t stand it any longer, can I?”

Harry and Hermione blushed.

The two of them did deduct a lot of points, which made them somewhat disillusioned with this year's Academy Cup.

"Okay, Potter." Snape raised his head, "I want to remind you that if I find you wandering around the castle at night, I will personally expel you."

Hermione and Ron gasped.

The three of them looked at him stiffly as he strode away.

Hermione asked worriedly, "Harry, are you okay?"

Harry shook his head, took a deep breath, and said firmly, "I'm fine...Hermione, we have to keep an eye on him now."

"What are we going to do?" Hermione looked at him confused, "wait for him to come out outside his office, and then follow him?"

Harry pursed his lips and nodded, "Yes, Hermione, I leave this matter to you. I think you are the best person to do it."

"Hmm." Hermione wrinkled her nose, "Well, if he asks me why I am at the door, I will tell him that I want to check the answers to the exam paper with Professor Flitwick."

Harry said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Hermione, for letting you face Snape alone, but I'm going to the fourth floor to watch Lu Wei, hoping to prevent anyone from entering."

The two immediately completed their division of labor. Ron looked at them and followed Harry as a matter of course.

Hermione took a deep breath and prepared to go to the basement, squatting outside Snape's office.

However, as soon as she came down the stairs, she saw Robert.

Feeling a little confused and relieved at the same time, Hermione ran over and asked, "Robert, didn't you go to Hogsmeade with the twins?"

Robert thought to himself, I would like to go, but isn’t this a mission that I suddenly received?

Originally, Robert was torn between following Harry and the others to prevent them from being harmed, or going out to play with the twins.

Although the principal knows everything that happens in the school, even if he leaves the school. However, knowing is one thing, being able to protect students is another.

As for the twins, they are actually determining the address of the joke shop. Originally, they planned to open it in Diagon Alley, but after careful consideration, they finally planned to test the water in Hogsmeade Village.

It just so happened that Robert was going to open a Holly Garden branch in Hogsmeade Village. It didn't need a big place and it mainly sold things that might be of interest to little witches and wizards.

Beautiful little books, hairpins, jewelry, etc.

Very decent shop.

By the way, a big star will visit in the second half of the year. Anyway, that guy will be a lifelong user of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Maladies from next year on, and Robert can still take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune.

This summer vacation may be a bit busy. First of all, there are plans to climb mountains, and then I will take little Rhett to visit the United States.

Although I don’t know if it will eventually develop into a mountain climbing trip to the United States, but planning for such a thing still requires preparation in advance.

Just when Robert was thinking wildly, a note suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Your juniors might need a little help."

There is no doubt that the only person who can do this at Hogwarts is Mr. Headmaster.

The headmaster said so, so Harry and Hermione must be in trouble, and it's something that the headmaster thinks they may not be able to solve.

In line with the fine tradition of taking care of his juniors, Robert decided to go find the two little guys.

"Robert, didn't you go to Hogsmeade with the twins?" A confused female voice sounded. Robert looked up and saw Hermione standing on the stairs.

"Good afternoon, Hermione." Robert greeted, "Why are you in the basement?"

Hermione said sheepishly, "Well, actually..."

"So, you and Harry split up into two groups, one to keep an eye on Lu Wei, and the other to keep an eye on Snape?" Robert nodded, "It's a very reasonable allocation, but have you ever considered it? If Professor Snape wants to steal the stone, will he be so excited that he can't sit still in the office, and he will be very sensitive to the slightest sign of trouble. In this case, you will not be able to track each other at all."

Hermione opened her mouth and lowered her head in frustration, "But..."

Seeing that she was in a low mood, Robert comforted her, "Your guess is probably right. If I want to steal something and drive Professor Dumbledore away tonight, this is definitely the best time to do it."

Hermione raised her head and looked at him curiously, "So?"

"Well... the twins and I have agreed to go to Hogsmeade the day after tomorrow, so..." Robert raised his eyebrows, "Do you want to add another member to your adventure team?"

Harry and Ron crawled into the common room dejectedly.

There is no one here at this time.

The little lions all went out to enjoy the rare leisure time.

The freshmen were a bit repelled by their seniors, and even the pressure of exams did not make them give in. To put it simply, they seemed to have failed all the exams.

Many people were hiding in the room sobbing.

Harry and Ron didn't want to go to the freshmen dormitory and listen to the crying sounds, so they found a table in the common room and sat down.

"It's so unlucky..." Ron complained, "Professor McGonagall is actually there."

"If you think about it from another perspective, this result is not bad." Harry comforted himself, "At least, if Snape wants to enter Lu Wei's room, he must first defeat Professor McGonagall."
