Elwyn went to Hermione and Elaine's bedroom to prepare milk for Elaine. Hermione seemed to have something to say to him too …
But he was really sleepy. He would let them do whatever they wanted.
Elwyn made up his mind. After he was done, he would stay on Hermione's bed and not go anywhere.
In the common room, Harry helplessly watched Elwyn, who had turned into a cat, being carried away by Hermione and Elaine. He sympathized with what would happen to him next.
It was a girl's bedroom. What could a black cat and two girls do? Iven wouldn't stay there for the night, would he?
Would he? Probably not, right?
Harry's mind was in a mess. He didn't want to sleep, so he decided to stay and wait for Elwyn for a while.
He sat by the fireplace and stared at the ashes that were about to burn out. He thought for a while about Elwyn's current predicament, and then his thoughts returned to the conversation just now. Dumbledore and Snape had an argument. Although he insisted that he trusted Snape completely, he still lost his temper with Snape. He felt that Snape did not do his best to investigate Slytherin …
To be more precise, he did not do his best to investigate Draco Malfoy.
Even Elwyn admitted that Malfoy was the murderer of these two attacks, so he must have done it.
Thinking back to the conversation with Malfoy at Snape's Christmas party, his attitude towards Malfoy was extremely indulgent. Not to mention investigating, he even wanted to help Malfoy. They were in the same gang, they were all Death Eaters.
Harry felt that Dumbledore might have been deceived by Snape, although the possibility was very low. Or maybe he knew about it, but he didn't want Harry to do anything stupid. He was afraid that Harry would intervene, so he pretended to say that what Harry suspected was nothing.
Just like what Elwyn had requested, he wanted Harry to do nothing …
Harry was a little confused. If they could be sure that Malfoy was the mastermind, why didn't they arrest him immediately?
Perhaps Dumbledore did not want him to be distracted in class or delay getting the real memory from Slughorn, or perhaps Dumbledore felt that he should not tell a sixteen-year-old student about his suspicions about a teacher …
"There you are, Potter!"
Harry jumped up in surprise and picked up his wand.
He originally thought that there was no one in the lounge, but he did not expect a huge figure to suddenly appear from a seat in the distance.
Harry took a closer look and saw that it was Mike McClagan.
"I've been waiting for you to come back!" McClagan said, ignoring Harry who had pulled out his wand. "He must have dozed off. I saw them carrying Weasley to the school hospital. It seems that he can't play in next week's game, right?"
Game? It took Harry a while to understand what he was talking about.
"Oh, yes, Quidditch!" He put his wand back into the waistband of his jeans and tiredly ran his fingers through his hair.
He never thought that someone would talk to him about Quidditch at this time. McClagan's obsession was so deep …
"Yes, he may not be able to go," Harry said helplessly. "He needs to rest for a while."
"Then it's my turn to be goalkeeper, isn't it?" McClagan asked eagerly.
"Huh?" Harry said. "Ah, yes, if there is no other suitable candidate, I think it's you …"
To be honest, Harry could not think of a reason to refute. After all, McClagan had placed second in the preliminaries.
If it were not for Ginny and Elaine deliberately making things difficult for him, he would have actually played better than Ron.
"Great! Then I am a member of the team, "McClagan said in a satisfied tone." When do we train? "
"What? Training? Oh, there is one tomorrow night. "
"Okay, listen to me, Potter. We should talk about it first. I have some strategic ideas that may be useful to you. "
"Okay!" Harry said unenthusiastically. "I will listen to it tomorrow. I am quite tired now. Goodbye …"
He then hurried back to his bedroom, dismissing the idea of waiting for Elwyn in the common room.
On the other side, Elwyn, who had been tossed around by Elaine, was lying under Hermione's quilt as he wished.
It was too late. Seeing that she could not chase Elwyn away, Hermione, who had changed into her pajamas, could only let him stay. Anyway, it was not the first time. Under the restrictions of magic, Elwyn could not change back to his human form, so there was nothing to worry about.
After making up her mind, Hermione originally planned to hug Elwyn to sleep. But soon, Hermione, who was a little afraid of Elwyn under the quilt, also transformed into an Animagus.
Just like that, the two cats lay on the bed, leaning on each other. It was so hot under the quilt …
The news of Ron's poisoning spread quickly the next day, but it was not as sensational as Katie's injury. Everyone seemed to think that it might be an accident, because he was in the potions teacher's room at the time and immediately took the antidote.
In fact, Gryffindor's students were generally more concerned about the Quidditch game against Hufflepuff. Many people wanted to see the team's ball chaser, Zacharias Smith, punished for his terrible commentary in the opening game against Slytherin.
Also, the Hufflepuff team's genius player performed very well. They were probably the strongest opponents for Gryffindor's team to win the championship.
Some people even said that this game would decide the winner of this year's Quidditch Cup in advance.
Although the upcoming game was very important, Harry's interest in Quidditch had never been as low as it was now.
After that conversation, he finally took Elwyn's advice and did not act rashly. However, his mind was quickly occupied by Draco Malfoy. Whenever he had the chance, he would check the map of the marauders more frequently and for longer periods of time.
Sometimes, Harry would go around to where Malfoy was and do everything possible to keep a close eye on Malfoy.
If this was not love, Elwyn really could not find any other adjectives to describe Harry's behavior.
This evaluation also applied to McClagan and Lavender. Elwyn suddenly found that the two men began to appear more and more in his sight.
McClagan now looked for Harry whenever he had the chance, constantly hinting that he would be better as a goalkeeper than Ron. He thought that now that Harry often saw his training, he would come to the same conclusion. He also liked to criticize other players and provide detailed training plans to Harry. Harry had to remind him several times who the captain was.
At the same time, Lavender often came up to discuss Ron and tried to join their conversation. Because Madam Pomfrey did not allow her to stay in the ward, and because Ron had not woken up, she decided to use this method to vent her emotions and express her love for Ron.
To be honest, this was more boring than listening to McClagan's Quidditch lectures.
At the very least, McClagan would only pester Harry and ignore Elwyn, Hermione, Elaine, Corin and others.
Lavender, on the other hand, wanted to talk to everyone who knew Ron. She wanted to tell everyone how she felt about Ron being poisoned, her current pain, and their former love.
