Just like that, Allen's life became extremely regular. Apart from class, anyone who wanted to find Allen would either go to the cafeteria or the library. Until this day …
"Allen, I knew you were here." Freig, Ron, and Harry came to the library together and found Allen.
"Hey, you haven't come to see me in a long time!" Allen said with a smile.
"We usually can't have classes together. Except for the first transformation class, we never got together again. What about you? The library has become your base. Who doesn't know that Ravenclaw's score controller is a book maniac! You can't forget us! "Freig complained, aggrieved.
"How can that be? Your deeds often reach my ears. For example, today Harry did a good thing and helped Neville take the memory ball from Malfoy. "Allen comforted him with a smile.
"Yes, you don't know how great Harry was today … He swooped down from a height of about fifty feet and grabbed the memory ball." Freig was exultant, as if he was the one who grabbed the memory ball.
"Hey, be quiet. This is the library." The librarian, Mrs. Pins, waved a feather duster and warned Freig.
"But Malfoy proposed a wizard duel to us. But Allen, you know me. I know too little magic. "Harry looked embarrassed. He could always lower his guard in front of Allen. He felt that Allen could solve all problems.
"Malfoy's assistants are Gower and Crabbe. I was going to be Harry's assistants with Freig, but they both agreed that you have a better chance as an assistant, "Ron added.
Allen really wanted to tell them that Malfoy wouldn't participate in this ridiculous duel. He did. "Didn't you think that Malfoy might not show up?"
"No matter what, wizards can't run away from a duel that has already been initiated. How embarrassing!" Ron said indifferently. He didn't think it was a problem. How could he beat Malfoy to his heart's content?
Allen had to admit that Ron had a point. Under normal circumstances, wizards wouldn't run away from a duel. Although Malfoy had succeeded in tricking Harry and the others, even in his own academy, people would look down on his behavior, even if he was the rich Malfoy.
"Allen, be my assistant." Harry looked expectant.
"Okay, as you wish, my friend!" Allen felt that it was inappropriate to refuse.. and also, he could see the legendary music-loving three-headed dog..
"Wonderful!" Both Flegg and Harry jumped with excitement.
"Get out! Get out, all of you! Too noisy! "Mrs. Pins waved the feather duster angrily.
"Then Allen, see you in the prize room at half past eleven tonight!" Harry and the others quickly ran out of the library.
"Are you going to duel with Malfoy and the others? You'll violate the school rules. "Anna came out from the shadows of the bookshelves and asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, there won't be a problem." Allen believed that he would never be caught.
"That's true. Young wizards of our age can't just shoot sparks at each other in a duel." As if she had figured something out, Anna laughed. "And if you're caught, you can get your points back in a day."
It turned out that Anna was worried about his safety. Allen felt warm in his heart.
If it wasn't for this little episode, Allen's day could be considered very complete. He successfully finished reading "A Thousand Kinds of Magical Herbs and Mushrooms" and felt as if he had eaten his fill and was extremely satisfied.
At half past eleven, Allen tiptoed out of bed. Edward was already fast asleep. Turning on the invisibility function of Wonderful Wizard Robe, Allen quickly came to the prize room. He hid behind a huge display case. After a while, he saw Harry and the others.
"Why are you so late?" Allen asked. "Weren't you looking forward to tonight's duel? Hey, there's one more person. "
"Well, Allen, she's Hermione. She insisted on following. We couldn't do anything about it." Ron complained to Allen angrily.
"You're violating the school rules. I'm going to …" Hermione was also very angry.
"Calm down, Hermione. You're violating the school rules now." Allen calmly pointed out the fact.
"Oh, Allen, I've heard of you. You've been praised by almost all the professors, except for Professor Snape. You don't think this ridiculous duel is right, do you? "Hermione tried to win Allen's approval.
"Yes, it's a ridiculous duel. But since you agreed to the duel, you should fulfill your promise. It's about dignity. Well, Harry, did you agree to duel here? "
"Yes, it's almost midnight. Malfoy and the others should be here soon." Harry looked at the luminous watch that Allen had given him.
Under the moonlight, the crystal glass case that displayed the prizes shone brightly. In the darkness, the trophies, shields, medals, and statues shone with silver and gold light. The five people moved forward against the wall, their eyes fixed on the door at both ends of the room. Harry took out his wand in case Malfoy suddenly rushed in and dueled with him. Time ticked by.
"He's late. Maybe he's too scared to come." "Ron whispered. Just then, a voice came from the next room, making them jump in fright. Harry had just raised his wand when he heard someone talking. It wasn't Malfoy. "Smell around, my dear. They might be hiding in some corner." “
Filch was talking to Madam Dolores. Harry was terrified. He waved his wand at the other four people, telling them to follow him as quickly as possible. They quietly walked to the door that was far away from Filch's voice. Soon, they heard Filch walk into the prize room.
"They're here somewhere," they heard him mutter in a low voice. "Hiding, I suppose. “
"This way!" Harry said to everyone without making a sound. Except for Allen, they were all scared out of their wits. They quietly walked down a corridor full of armor. They could hear Filch getting closer and closer to them.
"Clang, clang …" Flaig accidentally bumped into a piece of armor. The sound of the armor rolling around was particularly ear-piercing in the silent night.
