"Enns, what's going on? What is this mist...?"

As soon as he got on the deck, Alexander couldn't help but ask this question. But before Enns on the side could speak, he saw another figure suddenly come out of the mist on the other side, stretched out his wand and moved towards the hatch.

One finger.

"boom!"

The hatch closed again behind Alexander in an instant, and a protective spell was immediately added.

"Professor Snape?"

"Um."

After casting the curse, Snape glanced at Alexander and said calmly:

"Did you meet anyone else when you came here?"

"Uh... no." Alexander heard this and immediately replied honestly, "I mean, except for those 'classmates' in the corridor who were under the binding spell - was that done by you, professor? Or... um

Si, was it you who did it?”

"it's me."

When Enns saw him asking, he immediately answered in a matter-of-fact manner. At this moment, Lisa also appeared in the thick fog behind Snape.

"Alexander, are you okay?" She asked with some concern, "Weren't you still in the classroom before? So many classmates have changed like that at the same time... It must be very difficult for you to escape."

"Oh, not bad, not bad -"

Alexander waved his hand quickly, and it was at this moment that Snape suddenly interrupted:

"Dupin, remember to give him a sip of the potion - Wolfe, stay here and don't go anywhere. Now is not the time to run around!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Snape suddenly turned around again, walked into the fog again and left with long strides like a gust of wind.

"What...what's going on?"

Alexander watched Snape leave in a hurry, and couldn't help turning his head to look at Enns standing aside, and asked hesitantly.

But Enns just curled his lips and said casually:

"What else could it be? Just stay here and don't move!"

Before he finished speaking, he took two steps to the side, then sat down directly on a pile of cables next to the cabin door. From the looks of it, he had probably been sitting here for a while before Alexander came.

A little while ago.

Fortunately, even if Enns didn't bother to explain to him, Lisa was still here! Soon, Alexander heard the senior sister whispering very gently:

"You should also know the character of Professor Snape... In fact, there is obviously a very serious crisis on the ship, and many situations are unknown now. For safety reasons, Professor and they don't want us to continue

In danger - Oh, by the way, Professor Sprout is also on deck! She seems to be trying to find the source of the problem."

As Lisa spoke, she took out a brown medicine bottle from her pocket, removed the cork and handed it to Alexander's hand.

“Take a sip—just one sip!”

"What kind of potion is this?"

Alexander took it and looked at it, but found that there was no label on the bottle, so he couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know the details. In short, it was specially prepared by Professor Snape to increase the mental will of the user within a certain period of time." Lisa explained, "Look, we all fainted before -"

"I didn't!" Enns, who was not far away, heard this and couldn't help but emphasize.

"Oh, yes, of course!" Lisa nodded quickly, "It was the same just now. It's all thanks to you that I was able to break through the encirclement so smoothly."

"……Um."

To be honest, this was the first time that Enns had been praised and thanked so frankly. It could be seen that he was obviously not used to it, and he even didn't know what to say for a while.

When Alexander saw this, he found Enns, who was so awkward, very funny. He forgot about the bad situation at the moment, and couldn't help laughing "hehe".

"What's so funny? Drink your medicine!" Ensitang glared at him and said.

Alexander hurriedly shrugged, turned around again, raised his head and took a sip of the potion in the bottle, and then handed it back to Lisa.

"Senior sister, if you have the opportunity in the future, can you praise him more?" He leaned close to Lisa and whispered, "You should also feel his character - I don't want him to become second best in the future.

Professor Snape!"

"Be careful, don't talk nonsense!"

When Lisa heard this, she couldn't help but look back into the fog behind her - although the thick fog blocked her from seeing anything, she bet that Snape must have heard Alexander's words just now!

After reminding him, Lisa waved her hand and said:

"Okay, you should take a rest here too! I will go over to Professor Sprout's place to check on the situation. If there is any news, I will come back and tell you immediately."

After that, she was about to turn around and leave. When Alexander saw him, he hurriedly hurriedly walked:

"I am coming too!"

"No," Lisa shook her head and said, "Professor Snape said that there seems to be something under the water and you can't get too close to the side of the ship. I can go over because Professor Sprout did it for the sake of my senior year.

It’s barely accommodating.”

"But...it's too hard to just wait here."

Seeing Lisa disappearing into the fog, Alexander walked around for a few steps, but in the end he could only return to the cabin door and found a place to sit down like Enns.

"Are you willing to sit here like this?"

Seeing Ens sitting silently on the other side of the door, he couldn't help but ask. Unexpectedly, Ens, who refused to admit defeat anywhere, shook his head calmly at this time.

"Why are you unwilling to give in?" He frowned slightly, "Do you know what is going on in this situation? Or do you know how to find the source of this incident?"

After asking these two questions, Enns habitually played with his wand in his hand and subconsciously touched the snake wand on his lower back with his other hand.

"Even if I have some special power, it still doesn't belong to me - compared to the professors, our experience is still very lacking." He said, "You just asked me if I was willing to do it? Of course I am not willing to do it!

However, being unwilling to do so does not mean that I will act rashly... You should sit still and calmly! Don't disturb the professor's work."

Enns' words immediately made Alexander speechless, because what he said was indeed very reasonable. After a slight nod, the latter finally suppressed the slight restlessness in his heart due to the previous battle and closed his eyes.

The upper lip became quiet.

However, at the next moment, a sound of footsteps suddenly sounded from the other side of the cabin door, reaching the ears of the two of them from far and near.

"Is someone here?" Alexander suddenly stood up again.
