Chapter 265 Undercurrent

For a moment, Hermione's hands and feet were a little cold.

She quickly went through her experiences with Harry and Ron in her mind.

There are no major problems, but some minor doubts exist.

For example, her strength, and her brief absence during the previous train accident.

Hermione's mind raced, and she suddenly said to Harry: "Professor Lockhart has finished speaking, let's go to the principal's office by the way, anyway, you have decided to speak, Dumbledore as the principal will not be worse than Professor Lockhart."

Ron nodded beside him, "Let's go, we are here now."

Under Hermione's gaze, Harry's expression was a moment of resistance, but he still followed the two to the small tower where the principal's office was located, and the gargoyle stopped them.

"You still need a password, or we will do it next time..."

Before Harry finished speaking, Hermione began to name the desserts, "Lemon Sherbet, Licorice Wand, Syrup Yogurt, Colorful Sundae, Red Velvet Toffees, Cockroach Pile, Jelly Slug..."

Boom~!

The gargoyles stepped aside and gave Hermione a thumbs up.

"Look, it's open. Let's go!"

Hermione led the way, and the two confused guys behind had to follow.

Climbing the spiral staircase, the three of them came to a half-closed oak door. As the knock on the door sounded, an old voice came from inside, "Come in!"

The three of them pushed the door open and entered. Dumbledore looked at the three of them with a smile on his face, but when his eyes swept over Harry, the smile on his face paused, but he covered it up well.

"I have always expected that some students can guess the password and come to me to chat, but most of them are shy. This is your first time. Although I didn't expect you to come, I never lack delicious food here. What do you want to try?" Dumbledore said kindly.

"Thank you, Headmaster Dumbledore, but Harry's matter is more important. We have just found Professor Lockhart once, and we hope you can know about this matter. Harry, tell me!" Hermione spoke quickly and pushed Harry out.

"I, I..."

"He can hear strange noises, but we can't." Hermione said.

"Yes, yesterday, yesterday..."

"Last night, Harry rushed to the scene because he heard the noise." Hermione said again.

"Yes, I, I..."

"Harry thinks you should know about this." Hermione simply helped him finish the whole thing.

Harry opened his mouth and found that there was nothing to add, so he simply nodded.

Ron next to him was stunned. What's going on? Is Harry so nervous? Why did he stutter?

After listening, Dumbledore smiled, "I understand, thank you for your supplement Miss Granger, and Mr. Weasley, can I have a few words with Harry alone?"

"Of course, Harry, we'll wait for you outside." After saying that, Hermione pulled Ron out of the headmaster's office.

About ten minutes later, when Harry came out again, the previous gloomy feeling had disappeared.

"Brother, why did you stutter so badly just now?" Ron asked.

Harry rubbed his head, "I don't know, I just stuttered a little."

"What did Headmaster Dumbledore talk to you about?" Hermione asked.

"Nothing, just asked me to tell you what happened before, and what he said was similar to what Professor Lockhart said."

Hermione raised her eyebrows after hearing this.

On the other side, what Hermione and others didn't know was that just as they left, Ron's sister Ginny also walked into Lockhart's office. Compared with Harry, she stayed longer.

......

Time was in a hurry, and they ran again.

After Halloween, the exciting Quidditch game came.

Gryffindor and Slytherin, lions and snakes, competed again.

And Harry, who was also like a cycle, encountered trouble in the game again, but this time it was not the flying broom that was out of control, but the Bludger in the field that ran away.

The small sphere directly turned into a tracking missile, chasing Harry all the way so that he had to move around like a snake, and even got into the bottom of the audience.

This made Hermione and Ron think that Quirrell was resurrected again.

But this time, they did not find the person behind the scenes.

However, Harry himself was like an accident-type player. The more troubles he encountered, the better he performed. Finally, under the pressure of the bludger, Harry caught the Golden Snitch at the cost of dropping his broom and completing the sand sliding behavior of his body, and successfully won the game.

Harry was very happy. He won again, although he broke his arm.

Lockhart, who came here, did not pull out his bones with good intentions as in the original play, but instantly healed his broken hand, which made Harry more grateful to him.

At night, after all the roommates in the dormitory fell asleep, the guy who played tricks on the bludger during the day quietly found Harry. It turned out to be Dobby, the elf of the Malfoy family. This is a special house elf. He longs for freedom, hates being enslaved, and worships Harry Potter.

After a conversation, Harry realized that he had missed the train before, and the attack on the court by the bludger was all caused by the other party.

The reason why the other party did this was just to hope that Harry could leave Hogwarts as soon as possible, and it would no longer be safe here.

Harry wanted to ask more, but the other party was forced to stop because of the master-servant contract.

The next day, Harry knew what the danger meant.

Last night in the castle, a fifth-year senior was attacked inexplicably, and was petrified directly, just like Mrs. Norris before.

This is different from the original book. In the original book, the petrified person was Colin from the first grade, but this time it was someone else.

The little witch was not very interested in eating in the morning.

"Hermione, what's wrong with you?" Harry asked.

"Nothing, I'm thinking about the skills of Transfiguration." Hermione made up an excuse.

At this time, Ron came quickly and gossiped: "Guess what's posted on the bulletin board?"

Before Hermione asked, he had already said, "The duel club, opened by Professor Lockhart himself, will be in the castle hall this afternoon."

Hearing the word "duel", Hermione's eyes moved slightly, and she asked casually, "Are we all going?"

Ron shook his head, "This time there are only first to fifth grades, which is a kind of open class."

Hermione continued to eat after hearing this, but her eyes were thoughtful.

......

Time soon came to the afternoon.

The castle hall was decorated early.

Unlike the original plot, Lockhart did not invite Snape to help this time, but the old bat still came and stood on the sidelines with a sinister look.

Hermione stood in the crowd, listening to Lockhart's explanation of the key points of the duel. After that, he began to ask students to come on stage to demonstrate the duel and read out five lists.

Hermione did not listen carefully to the first three groups, until the last two groups, her guess came true.

"Harry Potter vs. Draco Malfoy!"

"Hermione Granger vs. Cedric Diggory!"
