The next day, Hoffa was woken up by paws.
It wasn't as easy for him to get up today. Yesterday, he overdrew his magic power twice in a row and was really too tired.
As soon as he opened his eyes, Hoffa saw Indor, who had transformed into the Silver Badger, pushing him hard.
Indor whispered, "I'm going to starve to death if I don't get up now."
Hoffa was stunned for a second. He looked at the ceiling, and then at the badger beside him. He still hadn't recovered from the bed and the dream.
Then, he sat up in shock.
"Why the f * ck are you still here?"
As soon as he said that, he hurriedly covered his mouth. He turned his head and looked around. Fortunately, it was almost noon, and the dormitory was empty. There was no one.
Indor: "I'm hungry."
When he said that, Hoffa also felt his stomach growling. He just remembered that he had experienced the most ups and downs of his life yesterday, but he didn't eat anything.
"I'm hungry. Let's go eat lunch. Wait a minute!"
Hoffa suddenly lifted the quilt and jumped out of bed. He pointed at the badger and scolded, "Didn't you say that you would leave at dawn? Didn't you say that I definitely wouldn't be able to see you when I woke up in the morning? Can't you speak the truth? "
Indor awkwardly scratched his head with his little paws.
"Your roommates are too noisy. They never stopped running around in the morning. I didn't dare to get out of your quilt at all."
Hoffa's face was gloomy.
"But they're not here now."
"Hey, I'm hungry. You brat, you don't even invite your friends to dinner. Why are you driving them out?"
Huo Fa took a deep breath. "Hehe, I've never seen anyone shameless enough to stay for dinner at someone else's house."
That being said, he still picked up Indor and put him in his arms. He changed his clothes, washed up, and went downstairs. It was not night, and he dared not put Indor on his shoulders, so he tucked him into the front of his school robe.
Today was Sunday. Hoffa walked to the common lounge and saw the freshmen gathered there, chatting and laughing. A few of the senior male students were holding up their wands and controlling two books to fight in the sky.
The surrounding freshmen clapped and cheered.
Indor poked his head out of Hoffa's arms. "Is this your classmate? You're really young and energetic. Why do you look like an old man who's just muddling along? "
Hoffa was shocked by his sudden appearance. He quickly hit him with his wand and said, "Shut up. Who said you could talk? Get out of here after you finish eating."
Noticing Miranda's gaze drifting towards him, Hoffa hurriedly pushed open the door of the lounge and walked towards the auditorium.
Now, how to get rid of this seductress gracefully without losing his dignity was a problem that Hoffa urgently needed to solve.
Yes, it was true that they were friends. But if he kept Indor by his side, something would happen to him sooner or later.
Indor did not have the spirit of a spy like Peter the Dwarf, who could remain silent for more than ten years. He wanted to join in on whatever excitement he saw and could not help but comment on whatever he saw.
He was very worried about the consequences if people found out that he had a talking badger. He was even more worried that his secret trip to Hogsmeade would be exposed.
He had a feeling that yesterday's incident would attract a lot of attention.
…
…
At noon in the auditorium, the food made by the house elf had just appeared on the plates. Indor was like a reincarnated hungry ghost. He wanted to rush out to eat. Hoffa hit him on the head with his wand several times to calm him down.
When Miranda saw Hoffa, she asked curiously, "Where did you go yesterday? I didn't see you for the whole day?"
Hoffa had already thought about this question. He said, "I got lost in school. There were several corridors that kept changing. I couldn't find my way out for the whole day. When I came out, it was already dark."
Miranda was enlightened. "So it was a magic corridor. If you can't walk through it, you can just jump. Hogwarts won't let students fall to their deaths."
Hoffa laughed dryly, and the two chatted casually.
At this moment, a skylight in a corner of the auditorium opened. A group of owls flew in. The owls flew around the table until they found their owners and dropped letters or parcels into their laps.
Owls usually came in the morning or at noon. Hoffa did not have an owl, and he did not think that anyone would send him a letter.
Miranda had an owl of her own. Her owl was a chestnut-spotted owl. It was very beautiful, with blue and white spots on its forehead.
A newspaper fell in front of Miranda. It was the Prophet Daily.
Hoffa did not have the money to subscribe to the newspaper. He was poor. That thing cost ten silver kexi a month, which was one gold coin for a few months.
After delivering the letter, the owls all asked their owners for food. Miranda's owl opened its mouth like a lady, and Miranda fed it a piece of toast with jam.
Hoffa had always felt that pets were sometimes very similar to their owners. For example, Aglaia.
Her white owl was just as egotistical as its owner. After delivering the food, it stuck its head into the communal nut plate and started munching on it.
Taking advantage of the chaos caused by the arrival of the owls, Hoffa hurriedly put Indor on the table.
Indor was so hungry that it grabbed several drumsticks from the table and stuffed them into its mouth. Its cheeks were bulging.
Miranda was opening the newspaper when she suddenly saw a badger on the table. She immediately became playful.
"Hoffa, where did you buy a badger? Very few people keep badgers. "
Keeping a badger?
Immediately, all the Ravenclaw students looked over.
Even the Hufflepuffs at the table next to them curiously gathered around. They shouted, "What a strange badger. It's silver and black!"
"Wow, it's really cute."
"Look at the pattern on its body. Doesn't it look like a suit?"
The badger was the symbol of Hufflepuff Academy. They were very sensitive to this kind of animal.
Hoffa was shocked. He quickly stuffed Indor back into his clothes. He smiled and said, "I picked it up … I picked it up by the Black Lake."
"Wow! You're so lucky. "
The Hufflepuff girls' eyes lit up.
"Can I touch it?"
Before Hoffa could say anything, a few white and tender hands reached into Hoffa's clothes and touched Indor's head.
Indor looked like it was enjoying it. Hoffa had to forcefully pull its tail down. This idiot, did it know the consequences of being seen through?
"Wait!"
A cold voice sounded. The Hufflepuff girls were stunned and turned their heads.
They saw a girl with an owl on her shoulder slowly walk over. She was as arrogant as a queen. It was Aglaia.
Aglaia squinted her blue eyes and asked harshly, "A badger picked up by the Black Lake. Hmph! Why is a badger wearing earrings? Bach, did you steal someone's pet? "
Shit! It's her again! Her again?
How sharp are her eyes? She didn't hesitate to use the most vicious thoughts to judge me. If she were to find out the true identity of this badger, she would definitely report it to the authorities regardless of the consequences.
Without needing Hoffa to say anything, Indor's head shrank into his clothes and shivered in his arms.
Hoffa held Indor down and said, "You're slandering me. Which eye of yours saw me steal it?"
"Hmph! If you didn't steal it, why did you only dare to let it out when the owl came? "
Hoffa said, "You!"
"What about me? If you didn't steal it, why would you hold it in your arms and not let it out? "
Huo Fa was about to go crazy. He finally understood what it meant to have a dog pinned on its head. This person was simply poisonous. He couldn't get rid of them, and they were like maggots attached to his bones. He couldn't just ignore her. She was no different from the internet trolls in his previous life.
He got up and was about to leave. If he couldn't provoke her, he could just hide.
Aglaia said to the people next to her, "Look, I guessed right. He's guilty."
Facing her aggressiveness, Hoffa gritted his teeth and turned around …
But just as a conflict was about to break out, Miranda, who was reading the newspaper, suddenly exclaimed.
"Oh my god! Come and take a look! Last night, a dark wizard broke into Hogsmeade Village and used a poisonous fog in Hogsmeade."
Black wizard?
This news was much more shocking than a badger. Everyone gathered around Miranda. Aglaia's attention was also diverted.
Hoffa sighed in relief.
Miranda continued, "47 people are unconscious. Two of them died after being sent to Saint-Mango Magic Hospital because they inhaled too much poisonous gas. One of them was even the owner of Two Brooms!"
The surrounding students sucked in a breath of cold air as their faces turned pale.
At the other tables in the auditorium, the students of all grades who received the Prophet's daily newspaper all saw this news.
Miranda turned a page of the newspaper in shock.
"The remaining 45 people are in a severe coma. The Ministry of Magic found a large number of battle traces at the scene of the accident and found the corpse of a Curled Winged Demon. The preliminary judgment is that the crime was committed by the German black wizard Schmidt Rutterov.
Rutterov was fired by Durmstrand in 1901 for casually raising dangerous creatures. He once killed a large number of Muggles in Romania. He has a large number of mysterious creatures and is extremely dangerous!
The Minister of the British Ministry of Magic, Hector Foley, strongly protested. The Law Enforcement Department has sent a large number of Aura to seal off the village of Hogsmeade and has issued an A-level arrest warrant. "
After Miranda read the news, the crowd was aghast.
After a few seconds of silence, a fierce debate broke out in the auditorium.
"Why would a German black wizard come to Hogsmeade?"
"Are the people of the Ministry of Magic blind?"
"Is that old coward Foley only able to protest?"
"Sooner or later he'll be kicked off the stage!"
…
"Wait a minute!" Aglaia suddenly interrupted the arguing crowd.
"You're saying that the Ministry of Magic found a large number of battle traces at the scene?"
Miranda nodded, "That's right, but they didn't find the two sides of the battle."
Aglaia: "Did anyone report this to the Ministry of Magic?"
Miranda: "No, it was a caravan that went to Hogsmeade in the morning to deliver goods."
"There's a problem here."
Aglaia said firmly.
The students at Ravenclaw's table all looked over.
Aglaia pulled a chair and sat down. She crossed her legs and spoke with assurance.
"There's a reason for everything that happens. Why would a black wizard come to Hogsmeade, why would they have a conflict in Hogsmeade, and more importantly, why didn't anyone take the initiative to report this to the Ministry of Magic?"
"I'm saying, if we encounter a black wizard, what would we do? We'd definitely run away and report it to the Ministry of Magic."
Miranda immediately retorted, "Maybe the victim has already been taken away."
"Impossible!" Aglaia sneered, "Didn't you read the newspaper? There were traces of a fierce battle, and a Curled Winged Demon was killed. If we only look at the surface, both sides should be evenly matched. From the results, the black wizard suffered more losses. "
Miranda stopped talking. A group of Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff gathered around. Even people from Slytherin and Gryffindor stood up and listened carefully to Aglaia's analysis.
Aglaia raised two fingers.
"There are two possibilities. The first possibility is that the other side involved in the battle doesn't want others to know their identity. The second possibility is that both sides involved in the battle are not from the British Wizarding World, so they don't care. "
"But the battle took place in Hogsmeade, so I think the first possibility is more likely.
As for who is in Hogsmeade and doesn't want others to know their identity, one, a fugitive. Two, a black wizard. Three, a junior student. Of course, we'll eliminate the possibility of a junior student.
So, it's very likely that this is a fight between a black wizard from the United Kingdom and a black wizard from another country. Moreover, the United Kingdom's wizard may be even more dangerous. "
The surrounding students were stunned for a few seconds, and then a fierce debate broke out again.
The topic of the debate turned to the identity of the black wizard. They listed all the possibilities and listed all the criminal wizards in the United Kingdom. After that, the students of Gryffindor started to use this as a pretext to criticize Slythrin fiercely. This was because they believed that this incident was definitely done by another Slythrin.
Slytherin's students, on the other hand, fiercely refuted. They believed that someone who could fight Schmidt and Luttloff and not be at a disadvantage, even if he was a graduate of their school, would be their pride.
