Chapter 313 The Brave Gryffindor Moves Forward

On the bed in Hogwarts Hospital, the famous 'former Death Eater' Black was quarreling with himself.

'I took it back, even though I threw some in the secret passage, but if someone discovers it, then...'

But another voice interrupted the thought.

‘Don’t worry, don’t be afraid! Not to mention graduation, how long have you been in Azkaban? Besides, isn't there already a test? ’

'No, you can't fool Professor McGonagall! '

‘What can’t be deceived! The only ones who could find those things in the secret passage were troublemakers. The things they found were against school rules and it was impossible for anyone to report them. Besides, could they be found out by reporting them? ’

Just as he was fighting between heaven and man, Lupine's voice came.

"I'm back, how do you feel today?"

"It's pretty good. I also..." He was about to tell Lupine about the new investigation paper, but just as he was speaking, Harry behind Lupine made him give up the idea of ​​taking out the tray.

Sharing pranks with your friends is great fun, but forget it with your godson.

"It's Friday today. The third grade students don't need to make up for classes tomorrow, so I brought Harry here." Lupine tried hard to suppress the smile on his face, "I brought some food along the way. The elves are very generous."

"Then take it out. There are no students in the hospital today. Madam Pomfrey has left."

Sirius smiled brightly, watching Lupine use magic to enlarge and deform a table and put it there, and then sat on the side.

"Anything interesting lately, Harry?"

"Questionnaire," Harry said eagerly - Professor Traolini's lessons would have had almost no impact on him once he truly knew Sirius.

Therefore, after William's questionnaire appeared, he immediately believed in the brand-new divination survey, and by the way, Ron was also dragged into the water.

"What a coincidence, I got it for Sirius too," Lupine laughed, "It's really good."

"Actually, there is also a parody version," Harry bravely introduced - to be honest, although Professor William was reliable, the survey was really funny.

Lupine and Sirius looked at each other, and then immediately pretended to know nothing.

"This is it."

Harry took out the second paper from his bag, and then accidentally took out the third one.

"that is?"

Sirius noticed it at the first sight and laughed, "Is it a love letter?"

"No!" Harry retorted loudly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's a new questionnaire, but it hasn't been completely processed yet. But I can't say who wrote it. I Promised to keep it secret."

"New investigation?"

Sirius was shocked in his heart, 'A student discovered it so soon? Has it spread yet? ’

He took the survey and looked through it.

"Professor Snape's Class Investigation"

‘…’

‘…’

Lupine and Sirius, who were standing aside, looked at each other. Neither of them spoke, and then they continued to read.

There are heavy traces of imitation, and the technique is extremely clumsy. It's like copying another one with a different name. The questions are extremely embarrassing to do.

[Professor Snape thinks you are a Gryffindor, so he deducts three points from Gryffindor. 】

[Professor Snape thought you messed up again and decided to poison you for dinner. 】

…

The argument at the end is also quite general, but there is no doubt that Professor Snape will probably be angry for a while if this thing is taken out.

'It's far worse than my share. I don't have anything of my own at all...'

Sirius looked through it roughly and came to this conclusion.

"It wasn't you, Harry?"

"No," Harry shook his head and denied decisively.

"That's good," Lupine nodded. "It's best not to put such dangerous things in your schoolbag. Snape will go crazy if he sees it."

'Neville needs to be careful when he goes back...' Harry thought and expressed that he understood.

——

"Times have really changed, Lupin."

Under the invisibility cloak, Sirius whispered while looking at the already more formal market. Harry and Lupine were blocking him on both sides to prevent unnecessary collisions and causing the invisibility cloak to fall off.

He had brought up the matter of wearing the invisibility cloak himself, and due to the Daily Prophet's continued reports, he was now more famous than ever before in the entire wizarding world.

There is no doubt that if a student recognizes him, there will definitely be some sensation or something like that - after all, the news is not out of date yet.

'And it feels really good to wear the invisibility cloak...'

He felt the invisibility cloak on his body, and felt a little happy in his heart - well, here is Lupin, and over there is Harry.

"This is Honeydukes, remember?"

Lupine introduced in a low voice.

"Of course, there is a secret passage under his shop. I remember it was discovered in the fourth grade? Right?"

"Well, that's right," Lupine laughed, "We were betting on whether the bloody lollipop had blood added to it, and then we sneaked into someone's basement."

"I want to buy some sweets. Professor William likes chocolate very much," Harry whispered, and then he and Lupine carried Sirius to the edge of the stall supported by the wooden table.

While he was shopping, Sirius looked at the candies around him with great interest. Although he had sneaked to Hogsmeade after leaving Azkaban, it was obvious that he had no time to watch such things at the time. .

"Okay, that's enough, thank you."

Harry took out his wallet to pay, took the candy and asked Sirius carefully, "Sirius, is there anything you want?"

"Come on, just a little," Sirius smiled, looking at the dazzling shelves, "Come on, some, I want to try all the candies now."

He meant it - after Harry bought a small portion of every candy, even the hideous one like the Cockroach Pile, Sirius never stopped to try them under his invisibility cloak.

——

"Well, basically, in the past OWLs exams, these are the dangerous creatures in the self-defense content -"

On the podium, William pointed to the huge paintings, "Of course, we all know that they are far more than these, but the more powerful creatures will only be dealt with in the advanced class - they will not appear very often. That’s it in our lives.”

"Now let's reiterate some key points to help memory -" William looked at the fifth-grade children, "First of all, there are key points that can cover most living things that will never be tested."

"The creatures that can be included in the exam are not good-looking."

Although this was not the first time they heard this point of view, a group of fifth-grade children were still amused.

"Well, if I were an examiner, and I saw someone writing such an outrageous conclusion, I would definitely deduct points," William also laughed, "But this is the key point for us to gain points through opportunism - self-defense is definitely not the key to looking cute. Within the scope,”

Among a group of overjoyed students, Fred and George secretly exchanged glances.

‘Obviously they are making up lessons, but these guys actually laugh like this... It’s really...’

'Do you think the professor has noticed... I always feel weird today. ’

'I think should not be? ’

'It's hard to say... I want to go to the joke shop to research, not here...'

The two of them were communicating while taking careful notes - there was nothing they could do, if their grades were too poor they would be noticed by the professor again, but what they were most afraid of now was the professor's attention.

Although they feel uncomfortable not being able to catch their own research, they would rather study hard than that investigation.

With great difficulty, they made it to the end of get out of class, and they almost collapsed on the table from exhaustion - they were so tired from class...

"Professor, professor!"

There was a sudden shout outside the door, and then a junior student ran in, holding a piece of parchment in his hand.

'Oh no! ’

The two of them looked at each other - they were afraid of whatever they were afraid of. They were now afraid of seeing the parchment under Professor William's eyes, but the child on it just gave it to the professor.

‘With so many students, you can tell it privately—besides, the professor probably already knows about it. If you give this to the professor in a big way, won’t you embarrass him? ’

The two couldn't help but complain. Wouldn't it be better for the younger students to have a good Saturday?

The fifth graders are making up lessons, can't you respect the order of the class a little?

'Wait a minute...' George took another desperate look, and then realized that it was not the lower grade student, but the Hufflepuff student whose grades were on par with theirs, Selma.

‘No wonder you’re counting down when you open the book! There are so many students and you hand this to the professor! ’

Fred watched desperately as William examined the paper, and then the expression on his face became extremely vivid...

‘No way, didn’t the professor read it and only found out about it today? He didn't care much about what happened in school during this time? ’

The two brothers looked at each other, even more desperate - if the professor only found out today, they would never be able to run away.

"These…"

William looked at the questionnaires in his hand that shocked him, and his usual calmness disappeared - judging from the last form, he felt that the students were very courageous, but now, he had to apologize for his previous wrong perception. .

He originally thought that Gryffindors all had a big heart, but now he knew that it was Gryffindor who lived in the big heart.

"Miss Thelma, where did you find these?"

After all, they are his students, and William decides to help them before they run into a dead end, so that they will not accept the beatings of life and understand the life at the bottom of the cliff in advance.

"Professor, this is from Peeves," Thelma said, wittily averting her responsibility immediately, "I just finished class and was about to take the self-defense class when I met him - he looked like He was waving these parchments around like handing out flyers, and then happily told everyone loudly that this was the best paper he had ever seen..."

It's over, there's no hope, just wait to die.

An incident at Hogwarts, once Peeves is involved, is definitely not a minor incident.

Although William does not know all of the elf's methods, based on the information he currently has, Peeves has the ability to spread leaflets throughout the castle.

At this moment, it was impossible to collect it in the past, so William had to calm down and watch again to see how powerful the warrior was this time...

"Is that the one?"

Fred looked at George nervously.

Professor William watched this operation over and over again and he began to recall his own flaws.

'The parchment...the parchment in the Room of Requirement is formatted a little differently...the professor will be able to find out easily. ’

'Idiomatic grammar also has the potential to be exposed...'

‘The timing and tone of the way it was written…perhaps the personal style is too strong. ’

'what else? By the way, the method of transmission... Although it is dispersed, because it is too dispersed, it will expose the fact that we used the secret channel... The professor will find out, right? ’

The two of them exchanged nervous glances, and for a moment, the originally perfect plan became full of loopholes.

What was once self-righteous now looks hopelessly stupid.

"We were really stupid. Maybe the professor really didn't notice it. Now that I think about it, a little investigation into this matter will..."

After staring at each other for a long time, their hearts became more and more uneasy.

Closing their eyes and gritting their teeth, the two of them gathered up their courage - the punishment for surrendering would be different from being found out. Since they didn't do it well, it was inevitable that they would be found out and imprisoned.

On the podium, William had completely given up the possibility of saving the guy who wrote it.

'My fault... I thought that those children would be more active in participating in tutoring after venting their grievances... But they seem to be more active than I thought...'

He covered his face dumbfounded - at the moment, this report is more complete than the investigation about him, but is now the time to compare and improve it?

"professor."

Fred and George stood next to William and glanced at Thelma with a hint of gratitude.

If she hadn't exposed it, the two of them probably still thought they could deceive everyone.

"What's wrong?"

"Um...I'm sorry, Professor...that investigation was done by us. We have thought clearly about it. This is no longer something that can be explained by a joke...We are willing to bear our own responsibilities."

The two stammered their explanations, and then dejectedly prepared to accept the punishment.

"you?"

William looked at the twins with a surprised look on his face - although these two guys violated most of the school rules, they still restrained their pranks.

But when it came to copying Professor McGonagall's investigation report, did they drink up the potion?

"Yes, it's us, we made those..."

The two of them answered sheepishly - why did the seemingly perfect plan have so many loopholes?

“…”

"Go to Professor McGonagall and apologize properly...Professor McGonagall won't do anything to you..."

At this point, William had no choice but to comfort them.

"I'm sorry, Professor...huh?"

The two were shocked, then saw the survey William handed them, and focused on the title.

"not us!"

The two of them jumped up instantly as if they were sitting on a prick, and the blood disappeared from their faces - who has such courage?

"It's really not us!"

"Dong dong dong."

The classroom door rang, and Professor McGonagall's voice came, as calm as ever.

"Professor William, are you out of class?"
