Lohat stared at his stern-faced colleagues, dumbfounded. His acting skills were very good, as if he had many sides to him in the past.
"I … I really never … You must have misunderstood …"
"Well, Gidro, we'll let you handle it," said Professor McGonagall. "Tonight is the perfect opportunity for you to show off your skills. We promise that no one will get in your way. You can deal with that monster alone. Now we're finally letting you do it. "
Lohat tried to look nervous. He didn't know how much Harry could see from the corner, so he looked around as much as he could. But, of course, no one came to his rescue.
He didn't look handsome at all now. His lips were trembling, and he didn't have the usual smile that showed his bright teeth. His chin was sunken, and he looked thin and haggard.
"Well … Well," he said, "I … I'll go to my office and get ready … ready."
With that, he left the room.
"All right," said Professor McGonagall, her nostrils flaring and puffing. "We've got him out of the way. Now, the deans of each school should go and inform the students what happened. Tell them that the Hogwarts Express will take them home early tomorrow morning. The other teachers should make sure that no student is left outside the dormitory. "
The teachers stood up and left one by one.
…
…
It was probably the most difficult day of Harry's life.
He, Ron, Fred and George sat in a corner of the Gryffindor Common Room, and no one said a word. Percy was not there. He sent an owl to deliver a message to Mrs. Weasley, and then shut himself in the dormitory.
Never before had an afternoon passed so slowly, and never before had Gryffindor House seemed so crowded and silent.
When the sun was about to set, Fred and George couldn't sit still anymore, and went back to the dormitory to sleep.
Cecatly was packing her things.
As a girl, she didn't have that many things, and there wasn't much to pack, only a huge suitcase and some clothes to change into.
So, she finished packing quickly.
After tidying up, she went to Jon's room. Jon was not there at the moment, but deep in the Forbidden Forest. As for Jon's things, Kalidi was there to tidy them up.
The little elf wept as she organized the things that Jon wanted to take away, as if Jon was about to die.
"Miss Todd, you have to take good care of my master. Kalidi still doesn't have the ability to go with him, so we can only place our hopes on you."
"Okay … okay."
The crying of a little elf was a very annoying thing, so Cecatly had no choice but to agree.
"I'll try to keep him alive to see you."
"Then … then … then thank you very much."
Carlyle put the last of Jon's belongings into a box and sealed it. Then, he turned to Cecatly and cried. He looked as if he was going to smear his snot on Cecatly's dress at any moment.
It was really going to kill him.
Cecatly didn't want to be entangled with a sad little elf, so she turned around and flew towards the Forbidden Forest.
Cecatly didn't fly for long, so she soon saw Jon's figure.
The status of the Magic Net had changed, and the finishing work was done. Jon was now just patching some things here, so as to avoid any problems that Grindvall couldn't solve in the long time to come.
After all, Grindvall wasn't in charge of technical problems.
These patches were enough to support the Magic Net for three to five years.
If they couldn't come back, who would care about the Magic Net?
"Speaking of which, it's almost time. I received a letter from Dumbledore. He wants to go to the Whimpering Willow now."
"Dumbledore is back?"
Jon looked up at the sky, and the stars in the sky had revealed their figures. Calculating the time, Harry and Ron should have forced Lohat into the secret room.
"Sure enough, it's time to do the last thing."
Jon stretched out his hand and touched the air around him. The edge of the Magic Net changed from invisible to transparent azure blue, and at the same time, a slender tentacle stretched out from inside.
It was held in Jon's hand.
"Well, I'll go first."
Cecatly nodded and watched Jon leave.
Then she turned and flew in another direction. Since she was going to leave anyway, why not get some herbs from the Forbidden Forest now? What if they could be used?
Right?
Dumbledore was near the Whimpering Willow, waiting for Jon's arrival.
In fact, according to the time they agreed, Jon was already late, but Jon didn't see the letter sent by Dumbledore, so he didn't come too late.
"Looking for me in such a hurry, there should be something, right? If I'm not wrong, you're going to send me into the secret room now, right? "
"Oh, you know." Dumbledore was full of smiles. "My dear Jon, I like your cleverness."
"Actually, I personally don't think it's necessary. You have to believe in Harry, he'll be able to figure out the problem himself. As long as he's sharp enough to find the key point, it won't be a big problem to get rid of a soul armament. He has the snake's fangs right next to him. Wouldn't it be easy to use those things to destroy a soul armament?"
"But our savior needs to defeat the snake first. I've already sent the sorting hat over. Gryffindor's sword is in the hat, and I believe he can take it out. But if he doesn't realize it, someone needs to remind him. But once I appear, Liddell will immediately suck the soul power of the captured child dry. By then, it will be difficult to kill him."
"Alright, but I think Snape should be there protecting now. Didn't he go in?"
"Snape's identity is a secret, we can't expose him in front of Liddell. Although in theory, he might not be able to communicate with his original body, who knows?
We can't take the risk. "
Since they couldn't take the risk, they had to send someone else.
Lohat naturally wouldn't face the snake. Lohat should have already come out of the secret room and was preparing to leave, and Snape should have brought the person in with him. By then, that person would be sent to the hospital in place of Lohat. Anyway, this was a very good escape.
"Alright, how do I get there?"
Dumbledore smiled mysteriously. He waved the magic wand in his hand, and a huge bird suddenly appeared beside them.
"Fox will bring you there."
