"Professor."
Huo Fa sat up, feeling a little uneasy.
Did he know if entering the Forbidden Forest was considered a violation of the rules? If it was, then according to the rules set by Dippet Amando. He would have his wand broken and be kicked out of the school. However, Dumbledore could not decide his fate. The one who could decide his fate was Ghoshak.
"Other than Lutterov, the other two Dark Magi have been caught by me."
Dumbledore said indifferently, "However, one of them was heavily injured by Joey, while the other had his vocal cords cut. Until now, they have not said a single word."
Hoffa's heart skipped a beat.
Although he was the one who used the transformation curse to cut the Dark Magi, he believed that with Dumbledore's personality, he would not praise him.
However, Dumbledore did not delve into this issue and said, "The Dark Magi have no way of entering the Forbidden Forest. This school is shrouded in a powerful protection and interference curse. Without the help of a special person, they would not be able to enter. I suspect that there are Dark Magi spies within the school. What do you think? "
Spies.
Hoffa was puzzled. Why did Dumbledore ask him? He was only a first year student. Did he think that he knew something?
He did not know.
Hoffa shook his head and did not speak.
Dumbledore sighed softly, as if he was disappointed.
He said, "Principal Dippet and Vice-Principal Ghoshak are currently in Germany. Perhaps they will rush back next week. At that time, I'm afraid that Joey will be punished heavily. "
"Why!?" Hoffa stood up from his bed, "He saved us."
"He put two lower year students in danger. This matter has already exceeded the scope of a teacher's duties. He may be fired because of this." Dumbledore said expressionlessly.
"He did not know that there were Dark Magi in the Forbidden Forest. He only wanted to know the meaning of the words left behind by the centaurs. You cannot judge the cause by the results."
After saying this, Hoffa was shocked. He didn't know why his attitude was so intense. He wasn't like this in the past.
Dumbledore was silent. He lowered his head and looked at Hoffa.
Suddenly, a smile appeared on his face.
"When I saw you in the Forbidden Forest that night, I was wondering why you weren't Gryffindor. Now, it seems that Ravenclaw suits you better."
Hoffa didn't know what he meant, so he just pursed his lips and remained silent.
Dumbledore: "You don't have to worry about the teachers. I came to visit you today as an ordinary teacher. Hoffa, do you still remember what I said in the first class? "
Hoffa remained silent.
Dumbledore said, "Be careful, Hoffa. Overdrafting one's mana isn't the behavior of a smart adept. Forcefully using magic beyond one's capabilities is a very, very dangerous thing to do. "
Hoffa sighed: "I understand. I'll be careful next time."
"Very good." Dumbledore stood up. His expression softened a little.
"It's always hard to be alone in the world. Sometimes, it's not a shameful thing to rely on a friend. What do you think?" He looked at Aglaia and then opened the door and left the ward.
He watched Dumbledore's back disappear at the door.
Hoffa didn't move for a while.
He was thinking and puzzling.
The arrow letter that Joey received was definitely not the work of a centaur.
Who was the one who set the trap for him or Joey?
Who was the mole that Dumbledore mentioned?
After a while, Hoffa, who had no clue, collapsed on the pillow. His mind was in a mess.
He looked at the Scottish mountains outside the window.
There was an indescribable feeling in his heart.
No matter who set the trap, he had always been too passive. He had to adapt to the environment and accept his fate.
This time, it was Dumbledore who saved him. What about next time?
The unfathomable future made him confused, and the shadows lurking in the dark made him fearful.
Hoffa wanted to change something. He urgently wanted to change. He wanted to be more active in controlling his own fate. He didn't want to continue like this.
He wanted to tear apart the fog in front of his eyes.
Not long after, with the help of meditation, Hoffa's mental injury was healed. But Dr. Reiner insisted that he couldn't leave the hospital until the treatment was over.
In this regard, he was no different from Madame Pomfrey in the future.
Aglaia stayed in the hospital for a few days. These days, there was an endless stream of boys who came to see her. Some even ran back and forth to see her several times.
Some sent flowers, some sent fruits, some sent cards, some sent chocolate frogs. The group of chocolate frogs piled up on the table, forming a small hill. They croaked.
Even his transparent Ravenclaw got a little bit of attention. He was given a small bag of fruit. The reason he got the fruit was that Aglaia's table couldn't fit them all.
Sure enough, it was a world that looked at faces.
Joey wasn't so lucky. Because he lived a solitary life, no one knew when he was sick. Hoffa only took part of the responsibility of looking after him. While taking care of him, Hoffa was worried that the magical creatures he raised would starve to death because no one looked after them.
The last day of Dr. Reiner's treatment.
At the first glimmer of dawn, Huo Fa woke up by his bed in the hospital.
He couldn't be better.
Aglaia's condition was good. Her face was rosy and she slept soundly. Only there was a circle of gauze on her forehead.
But Joey's face was still pale. The poisonous gas of the poisonous sac leopard made him very sick. Recently, he occasionally vomited purple venom.
After Hoffa woke up, he poured a glass of water for Joey. If he didn't drink a lot of water, the dehydration caused by vomiting would be fatal.
Looking at Joey, Hoffa was still scared. Even though so many days had passed, the shadow of the unknown still shrouded his heart.
At eight o 'clock in the morning, Aglaia woke up.
But when she saw Hoffa sitting next to Joey's bed, she immediately turned to her side and pretended to be asleep.
She didn't pretend for long before the school doctor, Reiner, came over with his hands in his white coat. He checked on them before leaving and changed their bandages.
At this time, Aglaia couldn't pretend anymore. She could only sit up obediently and cooperate with Dr. Reiner's examination.
After the examination, the taciturn doctor said a few words to the nurse and left with his hands in his pocket.
Soon, only Hoffa and Aglaia were left in the room.
The air fell into an awkward silence. It was an embarrassment that was enough to make Freud frown.
Hoffa pretended to check on Joey, but he had already checked several times and couldn't keep checking.
Aglaia looked at the scenery outside the window, motionless like a marble sculpture.
Not to mention Aglaia, even Hoffa himself didn't know how to deal with the other party.
Friend? Opponent?
It didn't seem like either.
Although they were friends, he still couldn't accept such a self-centered person as his friend. Her personality was too strong. She always wanted to be the boss and be better than others in everything.
Although they were opponents, Hoffa felt that it was better to forget about it. If they were really enemies, he wouldn't have been so angry when she "died." After experiencing life and death together, it was time to put an end to the farce between them.
This awkward situation between the two lasted for nearly ten minutes.
The only sound in the room was the ticking of the clock.
Then, Joey coughed in the next bed. Both Hoffa and Aglaea turned to look at him. After that, they turned to stare at each other.
"That's …"
"Me …"
The two opened and closed their mouths at the same time. Hoffa scratched his head, thinking that the other party was like a female version of a mirror. In front of him.
He didn't want to face it, but he had to.
Finally, Hoffa, who couldn't bear the awkward atmosphere, felt that it was better to leave.
However, just as he sat up.
The sound of the door banging caused the two of them to sit up in unison.
An old man in a blue robe strode in. His hands were behind his back, and his gray eyes were full of anger.
It was the dean of Ravenclaw Hospital.
He was also the person who could decide the fate of Hoffa and Aglaia.
Adbegshak was clearly trying to suppress his anger. His brows were furrowed. His brows were furrowed as he stared at the two people in front of the bed.
Hoffa felt the anger, but strangely, the anger wasn't directed at him.
In front of the dean, even the arrogant Aglaia lowered her head and didn't speak.
"I just went on a business trip, and this happened." Ghoshak narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "I hope that you can give me a reasonable explanation as to why two junior students appeared in the Forbidden Forest."
Hoffa glanced at Aglaia.
Although they went through so much in the Forbidden Forest, the reason was simple.
He wanted to make a mana recovery potion.
"We …" Hoffa wanted to say something.
Ghoshak coldly glanced at Hoffa, "Wait, Bach, I want to hear her speak first."
Huo Fa shut his mouth. His dean had never acted according to the rules.
Aglaia glanced at Hoffa and coughed.
Mr. Caretaker was looking for me. He said that he needed someone who understood the magical animal language to help him. That's why he brought me to the Forbidden Forest. "
"What about him? Why was he there? "Ghoshak asked again.
He … he was taking care of the horses at the Hunting Ground. I don't know how to ride, so … "
She didn't seem to be good at lying. She stuttered and couldn't continue.
There was an oppressive silence.
"Is that all?" Ghoshak looked at Hoffa.
Hoffa was slightly relieved and nodded.
"Yes."
Ghoshak coldly glanced at Joey, who was still unconscious on the bed, and strode out without saying a word.
Bang!
He closed the door.
Hoffa and Aglaia were relieved at the same time. They looked at each other. They saw a hint of tolerance in each other's eyes.
"So fierce."
Aglaia puffed up her cheeks. Her eyes moved back and forth between Hoffa and her fingers.
Hoffa was a little worried.
This worry was about Joey.
Although they were both teachers, Ghoshak's position was much higher than Joey's. He didn't know how Ghoshak would treat Joey. Looking at Ghoshak's expression, he was very unhappy about this.
After sitting for a while, Hoffa got off the bed and nodded to Aglaia politely, "Have a good rest. I'll come and see you when I'm free."
Of course, he didn't find Aglaia an eyesore, but for him and Aglaia to become close friends. Just like Harry and Hermione, Hoffa found it hard to accept in such a short time.
Aglaia waited for a long time for this reply. She was slightly disappointed. Seeing that Hoffa was about to leave, she rolled her eyes.
"Wait a minute."
Hoffa turned his head, "What's wrong?"
"Uh." Aglaia seemed to have forgotten what she wanted to ask. She thought for a while before saying,
"How did you learn all those magic spells? The spell to hang people upside down is one thing, and that profound spell of invisibility? "
"Half-Blood Prince."
Hoffa said without hesitation. "I learned it from a man called Half-Blood Prince."
He pushed all the responsibility to the future Snape.
That wasn't wrong. Other than Ghost Walk, the Fuchsia Bell was indeed Severus Snape's creation.
Aglaia answered absent-mindedly.
Hoffa pushed the door open and walked out.
After a while, Aglaia reacted. She turned her head to look at the empty door. Then, she lay down on the bed and looked at the ceiling.
