Chapter 3020 ╮(╯▽╰)╭The matter is not that serious
On the morning of the next day, the Gryffindor students who had just finished breakfast were all shocked to discover:
Gryffindor, which originally received extra points for winning consecutive Quidditch games and reaching the final, and then maintained its leading position in the Academy Cup score line, was inexplicably deducted a full two hundred points?
Then, now they were directly moved from first place to third place, and their old enemy Slytherin House once again gained the lead?
And in response to this, of course the Gryffindor students immediately went crazy!
Then, they all started looking for people to find out what happened and why two hundred points were suddenly deducted. Some people were even in a complicated mood and listless during class, such as Ron and Harry?
Of course, the reason why they were in mixed moods was not entirely because Gryffindor lost two hundred points, but because Hermione suspected that the two of them had been deducted points!
But the problem is, the two of them have solemnly stated that they really haven't done anything bad recently, and they haven't been caught or had any points deducted?
However, Hermione was still a little skeptical and didn't quite believe it, so the three of them naturally had a big fight over it again and almost broke up directly.
And in this state, it would be strange if they could go to class properly!
But fortunately, Ron and Harry successfully found out the cause of the incident during lunch, and immediately found Hermione who was eating and told her the whole story.
It turns out that the two hundred points were indeed not theirs, but were deducted from Neville for breaking into the Forbidden Forest at night without permission?
At the same time, they also found out that Neville was seriously injured after secretly leaving the castle and trespassing into the Forbidden Forest last night. It is said that he almost died. If he was not discovered in time by ranger Hagrid, he might have died.
Dropped.
Therefore, Professor McGonagall was very angry after learning about the situation. Even though Neville was still lying dying in the infirmary, she still brazenly docked Grant in front of Principal Dumbledore and other professors.
Fendo has a full two hundred points!
After hearing the situation, Hermione was shocked, so of course she ended her lunch in a hurry, then pulled the reluctant Anne along and followed Ron and Harry towards the infirmary.
Because Hermione knew without guessing that the reason why Neville dared to break into the Forbidden Forest at night must be because of the last ingredient missing from the potion formula!
And since the recipe for the potion was given by Anne, and since they were the only ones who knew about it, there were only five of them, so without saying anything, Hermione was definitely going to drag Anne along with her.
soon!
After consulting and obtaining Madam Pomfrey's consent in the infirmary, the four of them, as classmates, were allowed to visit Neville Longbottom, whose injury had stabilized, but the time was only ten minutes?
"Neville!"
After seeing the miserable Neville, Hermione habitually lowered her voice and gritted her teeth angrily without saying anything:
"How could you?"
"This is crazy!"
"Why would you want to attack a unicorn at night?"
The '[Enhanced Healing Potion: Fountain of Life]' that Anne gave to Neville currently only lacks unicorn blood, and given that there are magical creatures like unicorns in the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts, so,
Hermione didn't need to guess too much to know why Neville went out without authorization and ran into the Forbidden Forest overnight shortly after returning to school from vacation last night!
"And he went to the Forbidden Forest at night!"
"God!"
"It's really a miracle that you came back alive!"
As she talked, looking at Neville lying on the hospital bed with a silly smile and shame on his face, Hermione was so angry that she didn't even know what to say.
Speaking of which, she couldn't help but blame herself a little.
Because none of them seemed to realize that Neville was not here and did not go to class this morning. Then she even suspected Ron and Harry, who had multiple criminal records, because of the deduction of points, so they never came there.
Think about the honest and dull Neville.
But looking at it now, it turns out that the points were actually deducted by Neville?
Judging from the fact that the other party was able to successfully leave the castle at night and sneak into the Forbidden Forest, I'm afraid the other party had already planned this matter during the holidays, right?
"Merlin!"
At this time, Ron also exclaimed and spoke:
"Neville!"
"You're going to die!"
"Trust me, you can't beat a unicorn!"
"In fact, all of us combined might not be able to beat him?"
Ron knew the power of magical creatures like unicorns, because the old wand he inherited from his brother Charlie was made of ash wood and a unicorn hair.
And just a piece of unicorn hair can be made into a wand core and give the wand a lot of magic power. This shows how powerful unicorns are.
In his opinion, maybe wizards can indeed hunt unicorns or even stronger dragons, but that is definitely not the case for first-year students like them!
"that……"
"Perhaps Annie might be able to fight?"
"You know, since she can make trolls smaller, maybe she can also make unicorns smaller and be able to defeat them?"
At this time, looking at poor Neville lying on the hospital bed, and looking at the troubled little girl next to him who was just watching the fun and didn't want to say anything, Harry quickly raised his hand and refuted Ron in a low voice.
That statement just now.
"Right, Annie?"
As he said this, he looked at Anne next to him as if asking for confirmation.
"..."
(||￢▽￢)
"Maybe, but the unicorns in the school are very precious, and the professor won't let them catch them!"
╮(╯▽╰)╭
However, Anne's shoulders were slumped, and she didn't want to answer that question, nor did she want to catch a unicorn for Neville to bleed.
"But when you get smaller, there won't be enough blood!"
"Neville's potion requires a big tube! He can't control a troll after it returns to normal size like Dumbledore!"
"It's even worse for unicorns!"
"Neither can we!"
"Don't bother with Annie's ideas."
Having said this, Hermione couldn't help but look at Anne again.
Because she knew that there were unicorns on Anne's island. She had asked about it before when she was on vacation, but Anne rejected her offer to directly give Neville a tube of unicorn blood, although she didn't know it.
Why, but she thought about it for a while and finally didn't bring it up again.
"..."
"I'm sorry, I messed up..."
Finally, Neville, who was lying on the hospital bed, spoke. He first looked at Anne, Hermione, Ron and Harry in front of him with a bitter look on his face, and then said:
"Thank you for coming to see me..."
"But I think I will definitely be expelled from school, right?"
"Grandma will be very sad..."
"I'm such a fool..."
After saying that, Neville's tone began to turn into a whimper, and then he turned to look inside the hospital bed, no longer daring to look at Anne, Hermione, and others who would soon be no longer his classmates.
"Neville..."
Hermione opened her mouth and began to feel sympathy.
Although she didn't know how the school would deal with Neville in the end, since he slipped out of the castle and entered the jungle at night, and was seriously injured, it must have been a serious violation of discipline. If he was really expelled, maybe she wouldn't feel that way.
Too unexpected?
"..."
"..."
And so did Ron and Harry. They looked at each other and didn't know what to say.
This kind of thing, let alone Neville, if it were them, they would definitely cry even more exaggeratedly, right?
"Don't worry!"
(｀)
"You will definitely not be fired!"
(˙o˙)
"In addition to deducting points, the most you can do is to be put in solitary confinement or write a review of more than ten pages or something. Just wait and see!"
(︶)
Yes, Anne is quite sure about this matter.
After all, no one knew Dumbledore's bad old man better than her. For Neville's stupid behavior that did not harm others, but only harmed himself, there was no need to expel him.
Of course, in addition to what she just said, reporting criticism and notifying parents are definitely indispensable.
Anyway, that's all. As long as you have a thicker skin and people are fine, nothing will happen, and it won't be as serious as what the other party just said, life and death!
"Right!"
|▽)
"How did you get this injury?"
(.)
Finally, unlike Hermione, who only knew how to blame and talk about irrelevant things, Annie quickly asked while looking at the injuries on the other person's body.
Because she could see that the injuries on the other party's body did not look like they were caused by a unicorn.
If it's a unicorn, the opponent should have at least one or two transparent holes on his body, or he should be stepped on a few pits, or the bones of his hands and feet should be broken?
"Huh?"
∑(△｀)?!
However, at this moment, before Anne could say anything more, they were surprised to see: their head of Gryffindor House, Professor McGonagall, led several crying Gryffindor girls towards them.
Coming from the infirmary?
"Very good!"
"So Annie, you are here!"
Seeing Anne, Hermione and others, Professor McGonagall originally wanted to be angry, but in the end, considering that Anne was her favorite student, her raised brow fell down, and then she waved her hands in frustration and said
urged:
"Go to the principal's office quickly!"
"Professor Dumbledore has something important that he would like to discuss with you?"
"Go for it!"
"Don't disturb Longbottom here, let him reflect and reflect!"
"And Miss Granger!"
"Weasley and Potter!"
"Please leave here immediately!"
"immediately!"
With that said, regardless of Hermione, Ron and Harry's doubts, Professor McGonagall directly issued an eviction order, signaling the three of them not to stay in the infirmary and disturb the patients and Madam Pomfrey.
"Eh?"
-
(゜-゜)
"Dumbledore, the old headmaster has something to do with someone?"
()
"All right!"
(.)
"Then let's go take a look."
-
==()
After looking at the crying second and third grade girls, and then at the somewhat angry Professor McGonagall, Anne finally decided to ask Neville about the situation next time, so she ran out cheering.
"..."
"..."
"..."
As a last resort, although they didn't know what was going on with those crying Gryffindor girls, and they didn't know why Professor McGonagall brought so many of them to the infirmary, the three of them finally said goodbye to Neville.
They filed out obediently,
Chapter completed!
