Chapter 137 A shrill cry

"Thank you..." Harry said gratefully. However, his eyes flashed with a hint of nervousness, and then he carefully lowered his voice and continued, "I saw the big dog at the Quidditch match today! It was staring at me the whole time!"

Ron and Hermione were surprised when they heard the news, while Rowling thought to himself, "It seems that Sirius is nearby, most likely hiding under the Whomping Willow..."

"Harry let's go back!"

. . . . . . .

At midnight, everything was silent, and the moonlight was pouring down on the earth. Rowling was immersed in a sweet dream. However, at this moment, a shrill cry broke through the night sky and spread throughout the Gryffindor dormitory. The sound was so sharp and piercing that it seemed to penetrate the soul and make people shudder.

Luo Lin opened his eyes suddenly and jumped up from the bed. His heartbeat accelerated rapidly and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Was this a ghost howling or something serious?

The other young wizards were also awakened, rubbing their sleepy eyes and walking out of their dormitories one after another to see what had happened. Everyone had a look of fear and confusion on their faces, not knowing what the scream meant.

At this time, Hogwarts is still shrouded in the shadow of the Dementors' attack, and everyone is in a panic. In addition, Sirius Black, the legendary loyal servant of Voldemort, has sneaked into the school and has been lurking in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to act.

Such miserable cries made the Gryffindor little wizards panic. They were worried that one of the little wizards had been attacked.

Rowling quickly put on his clothes and rushed out of the dormitory. He knew clearly in his heart that it was Ron Weasley's voice.

When Rowling arrived at Harry's dormitory, it was already crowded with young wizards, all talking and looking nervous. Professor McGonagall also rushed over like a gust of wind, her face full of worry and seriousness.

Ron was curled up in the corner of the bed, his face was as pale as paper, and he was shaking all over. His eyes were full of fear, his lips were trembling and he couldn't speak. Obviously, he had experienced a terrible nightmare and was extremely frightened.

"Mr. Weasley, don't panic! Don't be afraid! What happened?" Professor McGonagall asked carefully, with a hint of concern in her tone. She stared at Ron, trying to find some clues from his expression.

However, Ron's eyes seemed a little distracted, as if he had lost focus. His lips trembled slightly, and he was still muttering, "He's coming... He's going to kill me... He's going to kill me!" These words were confusing, but revealed a deep fear.

"Oh, Merlin bless you! It seems that Mr. Weasley is too frightened!" Professor McGonagall frowned and showed a helpless expression on her face. She knew that this situation needed to be dealt with in time, otherwise it might have a serious impact on Ron's psychology.

Luo Lin stood aside, quietly observing everything in front of him. He could tell at a glance that Ron was extremely frightened, even causing his soul to be unstable.

Luo Lin took out the last high-level soul core without hesitation, extracted a ray of soul power from it, and slowly sent it into Ron's body. This ray of soul power was like warm sunshine, quickly penetrating into the depths of Ron's soul and stabilizing his emotions.

Professor McGonagall's eyes caught this scene sharply, and a golden light flashed in her eyes. She muttered to herself: "Is this the soul energy that Severus mentioned? It's really magical!" She became more and more curious about Rowling's ability.

As the soul power was injected, Ron's eyes gradually regained their spirit. He blinked and began to look around, and found himself surrounded by Professor McGonagall and a group of young wizards. A sense of relief came over him, and he realized that he was not dead, and he was safe!

"Mr. Weasley, what happened? Did you have a nightmare?" Professor McGonagall asked softly when she saw Ron coming back to his senses. She hoped to understand what made Ron so frightened so that she could take appropriate measures to help him get out of the shadow.

"It was Sirius Black. I recognized him. He was standing beside my bed, holding a knife and wanting to kill me! Luckily Scabbers bit me awake in time!" Ron narrated his horrific experience in fear, his body trembling slightly.

Professor McGonagall asked suspiciously, "Black wants to kill you?" She asked puzzledly, looking at Harry Potter beside her from time to time, as if thinking about something.

Ron explained anxiously: "Really, it's Sirius Black, he wants to kill me!"

Rowling had roughly guessed the truth of the matter. It seemed that Black wanted to kill Peter Pettigrew, so he sneaked into the dormitory. But he did not say it out loud, just quietly observing the development of the situation.

"Ron, did you have a nightmare? Why would Black kill you instead of Harry? Besides, he can't enter the Gryffindor dormitory without the password!" Seamus, who was standing next to him, was woken up and was obviously dissatisfied with Ron, thinking that he must have had a terrible nightmare.

Hearing this, Harry looked at Seamus with contempt, muttering to himself: "What do you mean by not killing Harry but you? Is this human language?" He couldn't help feeling speechless.

"No! This is not a dream. I can say that I am very awake!" Ron said loudly and firmly!

Seeing that Ron didn't want to lie, Professor McGonagall said seriously, "I think I need to ask Sir Cadogan who is guarding the dormitory door!"

Led by Professor McGonagall, everyone swarmed to the dormitory door!

"Good evening, Sir Cadogan. I would like to ask if you let a stranger in!" Professor McGonagall asked seriously!

"Let me think, there does seem to be a stranger holding a note and constantly repeating the gate pass, but he did say it correctly! So I can only let him in!" Upon hearing this, Professor McGonagall's heart immediately sank. It seems that Ron Weasley was right!

The young wizards fell into silence and fear, realizing that they had just narrowly escaped danger.

"I think there is a very serious problem now. The password of the dormitory is only known by the little wizards of Gryffindor. Who among you revealed the password to Black?" Professor McGonagall asked in a stern voice!

All the young wizards looked at each other, because they didn't know who leaked the password. However, Neville Longbottom in the crowd raised his hand timidly.

"I'm sorry, Professor McGonagall, my memory is very bad! So I wrote the entrance pass on a piece of paper, but yesterday, the note was lost!" Neville was so scared that he almost cried.

Professor McGonagall frowned, she was disappointed and angry at Neville's behavior. "Mr. Longbottom, I think this matter is very serious! Deduct 30 points from Gryffindor! And I must inform your family!"
