Chapter 254 The Late Professor

There was silence inside and outside the room for a moment.

There was no scream from Voldemort, and no cry from Harry.

The magic circle on the floor disappeared after Voldemort turned into smoke and disappeared, leaving a bunch of messy scratches. They could be made disappear by restoring them to the original state.

However, Robert did not act rashly. In fact, after scattering the handful of silver powder, he turned around and ran away, hiding in the passage.

Probably the burning time has passed, and the flames in the aisle have disappeared, but after all, it has been burned before, and the temperature inside is still very high. Robert was not afraid of this. Ever since he encountered the fire dragon head-on, he had learned all about ways to improve fire resistance.

Besides, the fire is good!

What do Muggles use to deal with evil spirits and wizards?

It’s not just fire!

In fact, the fire needed to exorcise evil spirits should be a physical form of magic power, and the firewood used must also be specific types of wood. At the worst, some exorcism spices must be added.

As for why people in the Middle Ages liked crosses, oil and torches, it was probably because of poverty.

Robert did not dare to look back. He returned to the previous room. The black flames blocked the passage as soon as he stepped into the room. The crackling sound of burning continued for a long time, and Robert had no intention of lifting the bubbling Disguise Curse.

He didn't want to be worried about Voldemort.

Just when he was hesitating whether he should go and see how Harry was doing, there were footsteps behind him.

It's Snape.

With anxiety on his face, he hurriedly walked through the purple flames and stepped into the room. When he was about to step into the black flames, he turned around sharply.

"All petrified!"

Robert: "..."

Thank you so much for being such a thief! professor!

Robert, who was almost scared to death by him, couldn't help but pat his chest. Fortunately, he was far away from Professor Snape, otherwise he would have been pinned in place just like that, and under the influence of magic, he would probably be exposed. Even if it was only for a moment, Snape, who was proficient in fighting, would never let him have an easy time.

It would be easy to be crucified until he died. Professor Tsundere was able to create powerful black magic during his school years. His talent for spells was evident. Robert felt that he could send himself to heaven crying.

The curse did not hit anyone. Professor Snape frowned and scanned the entire room with sharp eyes. In the end, probably because he was worried about Harry's safety, he gave up looking for the suspicious invisible man and rushed in without looking back. Black flame.

Robert breathed a sigh of relief and quickly left the underground.

Returning to the foyer, he saw Hermione waiting there.

The little girl paced anxiously near the door, not caring that she might wake Filch up.

Um, by the way, Filch doesn't seem to be at the castle tonight either?

That's no problem.

"Why are you here?" Robert lifted the disillusionment spell and startled her.

Hermione trotted to Robert, lowered her voice and said very fast, "We released the owls, but they all flew back."

"What do you mean?" Robert was stunned. "Is it because they can't find Professor Dumbledore or because the professor is in the school?"

Hermione shook her head, "I don't know either. Neville and Ron went to the principal's office. I hope they won't be caught by Professor McGonagall."

In fact, Professor McGonagall may be fully aware of what will happen tonight. Judging from her series of operations, she may have received an order from Principal Dumbledore, deliberately reminding the little wizards that "you can take action tonight."

He's a special tool guy with a bit of bad acting skills.

She cares about Harry no less than Mrs. Weasley, but she is calmer and doesn't show it.

While cursing the professors' little thoughts, he comforted Hermione, "Don't worry, Professor Dumbledore must already know what happened here. I just saw Professor Snape down there."

"Hiss!" Hermione gasped, with a hint of trembling in her voice, "Really, is it really Professor Snape who wants to steal the Philosopher's Stone?"

"Well, that's not the case." Feeling that he seemed to have misunderstood the other party, Robert quickly explained, "The person who stole the Philosopher's Stone was Professor Quirrell, but he seemed to have suffered a magical backlash and turned into a pile of sand."

Hermione's eyes widened again, "Professor Quirrell? H-how is this possible?" The little girl was completely confused and stammered, "So, so, we, we really made a mistake, In fact, Professor Snape is the good guy? But wasn't he bitten by Lu Wei..."

"You may need to ask Harry about the specific situation. After all, I was not close to the last room at the time." Robert explained, "I saw the mysterious man."

"Who?" Hermione asked subconsciously, and then she twitched her lips with some reluctance, "Oh, Robert, did you see it wrong? That's impossible... Voldemort, he, he has disappeared, hasn't he?" ?"

Robert said helplessly, "I'm afraid you will be disappointed. I really saw Voldemort. His face was pale, his eyes were red, he had no nose, and there were two slits here." He said, and made a gesture next to his nose. "It looks scary."

"Harry." Hermione looked at Robert in a panic, "Harry, is he okay?"

Robert put his hand on her shoulder and comforted her, "Don't worry, Harry was fine when I left. I saw Professor Snape was going to bring him up, so I left early."

"Then, let's go to the campus hospital and wait for him?" Hermione suggested, "Professor Snape should send him to the hospital, right?"

"Calm down, Hermione, calm down." Robert shook her, "You will scare him if you go over like this."

Hermione also felt that she seemed to be too nervous. She took two deep breaths and finally calmed down her excitement. "I, I think I'm feeling better."

Although she said this, her expression was still full of fear.

"Are you sure?" Robert was a little doubtful, but she said so, so, "Okay, let's go take a look, but you must not make a sound. We can't let Professor Snape discover us, otherwise..."

He made a motion of slitting his throat, "He's definitely going to kill us."

Hermione forced a smile, followed Robert, and arrived at the school hospital worriedly.

Professor Snape's speed was neither too fast nor too slow. When the two of them arrived at the door of the school hospital, he hurriedly held Harry and knocked on the door of Madam Pomfrey's territory.

"Snape, it's very late now...Oh, God! What's wrong with the kid?"

"I don't know... he fainted... and he couldn't wake up."

"Bring him in quickly, I want to check him..."

After the two hurriedly talked, Professor Snape put Harry on the hospital bed, and Madam Pomfrey also closed the door of the school hospital, completely unaware that she had taken advantage of the little wizard who wanted to sneak in and take a peek. They were locked outside.
