Chapter 99 The Third Attack
The next day, Mike became a being who could walk sideways in Hogwarts.
This is not because of how strong Mike is, but because wherever Mike goes, he will be followed by a group of young wizards of Muggle origin.
After the last incident, the wizards of Muggle descent have been completely united. Because of Mike's words, unity is strength, so they now work in groups no matter what they do, and there are even many mixed-bloods.
The wizard also joined in the fun.
There was undoubtedly the largest number of people gathered around Mike, and Mike once asked them why they did this. The answer they got was that they were worried that Mike would be retaliated against by the Slytherin students and Snape because of the last incident, so they would
Take turns staying by Mike's side.
At first, Mike was a little moved, but after just one morning, Mike became desperate.
Because even when Mike went to the toilet to relieve himself, there would be several male students standing guard next to him. Although they said they would never peek, Mike still noticed their peeking eyes and shocked and envious expressions.
Although Mike was very proud of the development of his capital, he was still very annoyed. It was hard for Mike to speak out to drive these people away, after all, they also had good intentions.
So out of desperation, Mike applied for a patrol assignment.
Fortunately, Professor Flitwick was a reasonable person and agreed to Mike's request after understanding Mike's situation.
Since most of these young wizards of Muggle origin did not join the management team, they did not have the right to leave the auditorium, so Mike finally became clean.
However, just when Mike walked out of the auditorium after dark and started his first night patrol, an accident happened.
"hiss……"
Mike and the two patrol members who were traveling with him felt a stinging pain in their left chests, and they all took a deep breath.
Several people reacted instantly. Someone had sounded the alarm.
Mike and others quickly opened up their magic sense. Under the clear vision of magic sense, they clearly perceived a warning brooch that was emitting a fierce red light in the distance.
"No! Go to support!"
The team leader took the lead and rushed over after giving such an order, and Mike and another team member followed without any hesitation.
When Mike and others walked around the corridor and finally arrived at the warning site, they found that other teams had already arrived at the scene.
"Quickly report to Principal Dumbledore! Three team members died here! At the same time, Harry Potter was petrified, and the other two Gryffindor sophomores were slightly injured!" The captain of the team that arrived first looked towards the person beside him.
a team member yelled.
The team member who received the order nodded to their captain and ran towards the principal's office, and Mike finally had a chance to observe the scene.
Only six people were seen lying on the ground. Hermione and Ron looked fine, but they looked frightened. They were huddled in the corner and crying.
Harry looked exactly like Penello. His limbs were stiff and he fell to the ground in a very strange posture. It was obvious at first glance that he was petrified.
The skin of the other three members of the night watch team was a lifeless gray color, as if all the life force had been sucked out of their bodies, and they were unable to survive.
Although Hermione and Ron looked miserable, Ron in particular seemed to have been greatly stimulated by what had happened before, so he vomited all over the floor.
But the team members at the scene did not go to comfort them. On the contrary, the captain who had given the order before yelled at the two of them: "What on earth is going on! Why are you here?"
The other team members around did not stop the captain from inappropriate behavior. They, the night watch team members, have accumulated deep feelings after spending so many days together day and night. Now, the companions who were still playing and playing with you yesterday are now...
But lying on the ground without making a sound was unbearable for anyone.
Ron didn't respond at all to the captain's questioning and just continued to vomit all over his head, while Hermione wanted to say something but looked like she couldn't breathe.
"Hey, Hermione." Mike stepped forward and reassured, "Don't be nervous, breathe through your nose, yes, that's it, breathe through your nose."
"Yes...it's Harry. He said that he could always hear a voice in the wall saying that he wanted to kill the mudblood. So...so he used the invisibility cloak to sneak out of the auditorium with Ron and me.
Investigate that sound. Later we actually encountered the basilisk. Harry was petrified just by looking at it, while we tried our best to escape. Later, the night patrol team members discovered something unusual here and came here.
While checking, the result...the result is...wuwuwu..."
Following Mike's instructions, she breathed through her nose for a long time. After her breathing became more steady, Hermione roughly told what happened. By the end of the story, Hermione was already sobbing.
The captain, who was originally heartbroken over the death of his teammates, immediately went berserk after learning that his friend had died due to the suicide attempt by Harry and others.
"You damn naughty kids!"
The captain roared angrily and kicked the crying Hermione. However, just as he was about to kick, his body suddenly froze.
Dumbledore appeared in front of everyone holding a wand and said: "Calm down, Blaise! What has happened has already happened, and you can't save the lives of Baker and the others even if you vent your anger on these children."
The captain of the night watch named Blaise burst into tears after hearing Dumbledore's words. As soon as Dumbledore lifted the restraining spell, he collapsed to the ground and kept mumbling.
Whispering: "It's all your fault...Baker, Qiao Xie..."
Dumbledore looked at Blaise, who seemed to have lost all his strength, and the other night patrol members who were equally grief-stricken. Finally, he said to Mike, the only one who was still in a normal state: "Mike, take care of Blaise here."
Lez and the others. I’ll take Harry and the others out of here first.”
When Mike heard that Dumbledore actually wanted to leave the Night Watch members in this dangerous place and take Harry and the others away first, he felt a chill in his heart. However, the expression on his face did not change at all, and he replied expressionlessly: "
Yes, principal."
Fortunately, when Dumbledore left, he also took the three corpses belonging to the night patrol members with him. This behavior made Mike feel a little better, but the deep chill in his eyes lingered.
Not going.
After Dumbledore left, Mike became extremely vigilant and looked around. According to Mike's understanding of the basilisk, it was very likely that the cunning basilisk would attack them again after seeing Dumbledore leave.
Fortunately, other night patrol teams arrived at Mike's place soon.
Mike told everyone what happened exactly as it was, including the fact that Dumbledore left first, without any embarrassment. Everyone fell into sadness, and most of them did not notice the strange behavior of Dumbledore.
