Chapter 147 Tracking! Important information about Agus
"Argus, do you know who the heir of Slytherin is?"
Draco deliberately lowered his voice and whispered in Argus's ear.
This mysterious look attracted the attention of Harry and Ron.
"Don't ask so many questions. I tell you, if you still have trouble taking the exam like last year, don't blame me for giving you extra practice during the holidays."
Argus said those words just to attract Harry and Ron.
He didn't really want to make everything public.
Under Draco's pleading eyes, he got up and went to the classroom.
On the other side, Harry and Ron were having a heated discussion about Argus's words.
"Those two evil Slytherins have been sneaking around. I don't know what they are talking about."
"There must be some shameful secrets!"
Ron bit a chicken leg hard, as if the chicken leg was made of Argus's meat.
His eyes were full of resentment.
"Is it about the heir of Slytherin?"
"Argus and Draco are both pure-blood families. Maybe there is some inside story that we don't know."
Harry was very happy about this.
If the heir of Slytherin can be found, his identity will be clear.
He won't be treated as a dark wizard all day long.
Ron lost his composure when he heard this!
We are both pure blood, how can you know so much!
I have to be suspicious all day long like a fool!
Ever since Arthur Weasley was dismissed as the headmaster, the Weasley family's economy has plummeted.
Especially Ginny needs a large number of gold galleons to go to school.
This makes the already poor family even worse.
This also makes Ron more jealous of the wealthy behavior of Draco and Argus.
He stood up suddenly, slapped the table, and instantly attracted the attention of everyone in Gryffindor.
Harry didn't expect him to do this, and pulled Ron's clothes hard to pull him off.
"What are you doing!"
Ron stared at Argus's back as he left: "You are right, there must be an inside story!"
"We can't let them succeed!"
Harry was dumbfounded.
No, buddy, I'm talking about people knowing the inside story, not having the inside story!
Your comprehension ability is a bit too poor!
"Wait a minute, Ron, this matter is investigated by the Aurors and professors, we don't need to..."
"Have you forgotten about Hagrid!"
Ron lowered his voice and said, "You are the biggest suspect now. Who knows if the Ministry of Magic will find someone to be a scapegoat like they did back then!"
"Think about it, just based on the relationship between the two Slytherin families and the Ministry of Magic, if they are really found out to be them, will the Ministry of Magic arrest them?"
"But... but if it is really Argus and the others, why would they say it in front of so many people?"
"Who knows what that evil Slytherin is thinking! We didn't see him go to the third floor last year, what happened!"
Ron's mind is full of the scene of him exposing the true identity of Argus and Draco, sending them to Azkaban, and standing in front of them to show off.
He only wants to find out the truth as soon as possible.
But he also knows that it is difficult to find out the truth by himself.
Only by bringing Harry along and using Harry's invisibility cloak would there be a chance.
Harry hesitated.
On the one hand, he didn't want to believe that Argus and Draco would do such a thing, and on the other hand, he was worried that he would really become a scapegoat like Hagrid.
He couldn't help shuddering when he thought of the scene of himself guarding the Forbidden Forest alone like Hagrid in the future.
"What are you going to do?"
Ron immediately became excited when he heard Harry's words.
"There are so many people in the castle hall, they will definitely not say any useful information."
"We use your invisibility cloak and sneak into the Slytherin lounge with them."
"We will definitely find useful clues!"
"But we only have one invisibility cloak?" Harry frowned.
"Don't worry about this, the evil Malfoy has long since joined the evil Slytherin, we just need to keep an eye on the evil Slytherin."
Ron patted his chest, as if he was about to arrest Argus.
Harry wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Ron.
"Harry, only if we catch the Slytherin heir ourselves can we really clear your suspicion."
"Do you really want to be wronged for decades like Hagrid?"
This sentence completely confirmed Harry's idea of investigating.
The two looked at each other, put down the food in their hands, and chased in the direction of Argus.
...
Today, Slytherin and Gryffindor second-year classes are quite a lot, three full classes.
It was not until the afternoon that the class was over.
Argus clearly felt that two eyes were following his figure.
It was not until the afternoon that he guessed what these two guys wanted to do.
In order to prevent the two from losing track, he deliberately said in a chat with others that he would go to the library next.
After staying in the library for about half an hour, the familiar feeling of being watched came again.
Argus resisted the urge to use the quick appearance, pretending to know nothing, and continued to read.
It was not until the dinner was approaching that he left the library.
"Mr. Grindelwald, good evening!"
Just when Argus was about to go to the hall for dinner, he happened to run into Filch.
Not far away, Alan Mitchell was patrolling with a group of Aurors. Hearing the noise, they thought Agus was in trouble and hurried over to rescue him.
"Good evening, Mr. Filch." Argus bowed politely.
Turning to look at Alan and others: "Mr. Mitchell, Mr. Aurors, good evening."
"I wonder what you want to talk to me about?"
The Aurors have been stationed at Hogwarts for a while, so it is normal for Argus to call out Alan Mitchell's name.
Being too unfamiliar will make it seem unnatural and easily arouse suspicion.
When Alan Mitchell was about to respond, he suddenly noticed something unusual behind Argus.
He raised his eyebrows and quietly reached for the wand with his right hand.
But Argus stopped him with his eyes!
He understood.
He pretended to ask a few questions, and then took the Aurors to continue patrolling other places.
Ron behind him saw this scene and became more and more excited.
Shaking Harry's arm: "See, Harry!"
"That evil Slytherin must have a problem, otherwise why would the Auror come to question him!"
"I think what he said in the hall is just a thief crying thief! Deliberately let others think he is confident!"
Harry's eyes also had a little more suspicion.
Nodding.
"Look, he's leaving, let's follow him!"
Ron noticed that Argus was leaving, and hurriedly pulled Harry to chase him.
In order to give Harry and Ron time to escape from the lounge, Argus only ate a few bites in a hurry and left the hall.
The three of them came all the way from the Hogwarts Castle Hall to the Slytherin Lounge.
After entering the lounge, Argus was not in a hurry to return to the dormitory.
The many magics arranged in his dormitory were not something Harry and his two could solve.
If you are not careful, it will be a problem whether you can get out alive!
Luckily, there was no one in the Slytherin Lounge at the moment.
Leave enough space for Argus.
He took out a few books and newspapers from his bag.
Among them was the report written by Rita about the petrification incident at Hogwarts.
He pretended to glance at it accidentally and chuckled.
"Hagrid's injustice was redressed, but what about the little witch who died that year!"
"She can only guard the bathroom on the first floor alone."
"Who has ever felt sorry for her..."
