Chapter 24 Gringotts attacked, the layout begins

Originally, Neville and Seamus were supposed to be in one group, and Harry and Ron were in one group.

But Neville was now assigned to Hufflepuff, and Ron saw that Snape was targeting Harry.

He chose to team up with Seamus out of fear.

Harry teamed up with another of their roommates.

But Seamus's reputation as a genius in blasting was not unfounded!

He and Ron, who had never read a page of a Potions textbook, relied on their intuition to mess around.

He directly detonated the crucible!

Not only did he get scabies all over his body and screamed in pain.

He also implicated many people around him!

Even Snape, who was going to cause trouble for Harry, was accidentally injured by them!

A large number of scars appeared on his neck hidden under the black robe!

"Mr. Weasley and Mr. Finnigan, Gryffindor will deduct ten points for your outstanding actions!"

"Hurry up and send these two idiots to the school infirmary!"

Snape's tone was unprecedentedly cold.

Then, he looked at Harry, who was closest to the two.

"Mr. Potter, you were so close, why didn't you stop their wrong behavior!"

Harry: ? ? ?

What does it have to do with me?

Who did I offend?

"Do you think that your classmates' stupid behavior can better highlight your excellence as a savior?"

"Because of your little thoughts, Gryffindor will deduct another five points!"

Harry was completely confused.

He wanted to refute, but looking at Ron and Seamus who were wailing in pain, he gritted his teeth and chose to send them to the school infirmary first.

The first potion class ended dramatically under the destruction of Ron and Seamus.

Gryffindor deducted several dozen points on the first day because of the protagonist group.

Looking at Harry with a frustrated face, Argus sighed.

Blame your father for giving you a boy.

If you were a girl, Snape would probably be able to single-handedly kill Voldemort.

Argus could imagine the scene if Harry became Harry with his head down.

Snape: Miss Potter, what would happen if I added narcissus bulb powder to the wormwood stem liquid?

Harry: I don't know.

Snape: Oh, because of your honesty, Gryffindor gets five points!

…

All the way to the hall.

The course schedule of Hogwarts is similar to that of the university in Argus's previous life.

It is mainly large classes, usually one and a half to two hours.

It was already noon when the two classes ended.

Because he came from the bottom of Hogwarts Castle, when Argus came to the hall, many people were already sitting at the long tables of the four colleges.

Seeing him coming, Hermione waved her arms happily.

"Argus!"

"Smart Miss Granger, I heard from my friends that you added a lot of points to Ravenclaw College in the spells class today."

Because he had shown the results of last night's battle to everyone in Hogwarts in the morning, Argus did not need to sit in the chief position all the time as a reminder.

He went straight to the long table of Ravenclaw and sat next to Hermione.

Many Ravenclaw girls saw Argus coming and subconsciously adjusted their clothes.

Moved his position towards Argus without leaving a trace.

A hint of pride flashed across Hermione's eyes, and then she thought of something and showed an annoyed expression.

"But in our first potion class, Professor Snape not only didn't give me extra points."

"He also scolded me!"

"He said I... said I..."

"Miss Granger, do you think you are much smarter than others? Use your raised hand to show your uniqueness?"

Argus imitated Snape's usual intonation, which attracted a round of punches from Hermione.

The two ate and talked.

At this time, a bird song came from the ceiling.

A large group of owls flew over with various letters and gifts.

"Chirp, chirp!"

Two rolls of newspapers were thrown in front of Argus, attracting Hermione's attention.

"Argus, are you still reading these?"

"I thought you..."

"Think I only recite textbooks every day?"

Hermione blushed slightly after Argus pointed it out.

Ever since she knew that Argus could memorize the knowledge in the third-grade textbooks, Hermione felt a sense of crisis in her heart.

In addition to eating and attending classes, he even reads textbooks before going to bed.

As Argus swallowed the last bite of food, a piece of news in the newspaper caught his attention.

"Gringotts attacked! Suspected to be the work of a dark wizard!"

"Gringotts goblins repeatedly stressed that there was no theft!"

Voldemort finally started to take action!

Argus' eyes were shining.

He had waited too long for this moment.

Compared with Dumbledore's obstruction and the fear of the British Ministry of Magic, he wanted Voldemort to be resurrected as soon as possible.

Use his terror to attract firepower for the development of the Saints and buy time!

After all, compared with the living Dark Lord who is still in his prime, a combination of a young wizard who has not yet reached adulthood and a group of old, weak and sick people is simply not worth mentioning.

Only if he is alive, Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic of various countries will not focus on him.

However, Argus does not intend to make his resurrection as smooth as the original.

Resurrection is possible, but it must be under his control!

In addition, Gringotts's actions are also an extremely important part of his plan.

One of Voldemort's Horcruxes, the Hufflepuff Cup, is hidden in the Lestrange vault at Gringotts.

Neither Voldemort nor Dumbledore would ever give up.

As long as they learn this news, they will definitely choose to take action against Gringotts.

Perhaps one attack wouldn't shake the wizard's faith in Gringotts, but what about the second?

What about the third or fourth time?

The attacks happened again and again, leaving Gringotts with no room for resistance.

What wizard would safely deposit money there?

Even if Gringotts repeatedly claimed that nothing was stolen, who would believe it?

Yagus has been coveting the golden mountain of the Wizarding World Bank for many years.

Now is the best opportunity!

It's not that Argus has not thought about getting Hufflepuff's golden cup in advance, but Gringotts has been standing in the wizarding world for many years, and it is not something he can easily break.

Moreover, the Lestrange treasury was enchanted, making it difficult to break into. If you want to find a cup among a pile of gold, only Harry, who is also a Horcrux, or Voldemort himself can do it.

Rather than spending a lot of time and energy, it is better to choose another Horcrux.

At the same time, Harry also saw the news in Ron's newspaper.

But his focus was more on the vault that was attacked.

Without a think tank, the duo made random guesses like headless flies, but could never find any ideas.

…

In the blink of an eye it was already afternoon.

Draco was like a stray dog, and without waiting for Argus, he took Goyle and Crabbe and ran outside.

"Did he drink too much?"

"The first period in the afternoon is flying lesson. Draco has been looking forward to it for a long time."

Pansy shook her head helplessly.

Like Argus, she was one of the few people who had no interest in Quidditch.

Of course, the enjoyment of flying is much less.
