Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard

When Hermione came to her senses, Kyle was gone, leaving only Harry and Ron looking at her with worried faces. ☜

"Are you okay, Hermione?" Harry asked worriedly, "Did you see the troll just now?"

"What...I mean, of course not." Hermione shook her head and said, "The troll is at least ten feet tall, and it smells bad. If I saw it, I would definitely run away."

"That's right." Harry scratched his head, feeling that his question just now was a bit stupid.

If they really encountered a troll, it would be impossible for Hermione and Kyle to be there like nothing happened.

No matter how good they were, there was no way they could deal with a monster more than ten feet tall.

it's out of the question.

Harry sniffed and said, "It's great that you're okay. Let's get out of here quickly."

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he could smell a faint smell from just now, which made him feel very uneasy.

Maybe the troll is nearby and could come at any time.

"I think you're overly nervous, Harry. Maybe there are no trolls at all."

Ron was not that worried. He thought for a while and said: "This is probably a joke used by Professor Quirrell to liven up the atmosphere. Maybe the professors will come to inform us to return to the auditorium after a while.

Don't forget, this is Hogwarts... and Dumbledore is here. "

"You're right to say that."

After hearing Dumbledore's name, Harry felt relieved a lot, but he still felt something was wrong.

"Forget it, let's go back quickly..."

Harry said: "At least until the matter is clarified, we cannot let the professors see us here, otherwise we will definitely get points deducted."

Afterwards, the three of them walked quickly towards Gryffindor Tower.

Along the way, Harry and Ron discussed their recent encounter with Snape, and agreed that he was going upstairs to the restricted area.

Hermione, on the other hand, didn't say a word and followed silently, seemingly thinking about something.

When she was about to pass this corridor, she suddenly asked: "Did you two come to me specifically just now?"

"Yes, we heard Parvati Patil say before that you locked yourself in the bathroom."

Harry said: "You didn't go to the auditorium to attend the banquet, so you definitely don't know about the trolls. We just wanted to tell you."

"But now it seems that it was probably a false alarm." Ron shrugged.

Hermione nodded slightly.

After a long time, she whispered: "Thank you..."

"It's okay, this is what friends should do."

"Just don't lecture us next time."

"Hey, Ron..."

"Okay, I'll just leave it alone."

…

The three of them left the corridor and continued walking towards the stairs, but when they just turned the corner, they heard voices coming from in front of them.

"I didn't see any trolls, Professor."

Not far away, Kyle was among a group of professors, explaining innocently: "And there is a reason why I didn't go to the banquet in time."

"Then say it and let us hear it."

Snape drawled and said: "How important is it that you can even forget the Halloween party?"

Hearing this nightmare-like voice, Harry shivered subconsciously, turned around and wanted to run away.

But this is obviously impossible.

"You three, come here!"

Professor McGonagall said coldly: "The principal made it very clear before, asking everyone to go back to the dormitory. Didn't you hear it?"

Snape gave Harry a sharp look, and the excuse he had just thought of was instantly forgotten.

Harry looked at the ground and felt that his head was blank. No matter if it was a deduction of points or a solitary confinement, he just hoped to get out of here as soon as possible.

At this time, Hermione whispered: "Please don't do this, Professor McGonagall, they are looking for me."

"Miss Granger?" Professor McGonagall frowned.

Hermione stepped forward, lowered her head and said, "I came to see the troll and wanted to see what it looked like... I had only read about them in books, so I was very curious about them."

Ron's eyes widened. Hermione Granger actually lied to the professor?

"They came to me specifically because they were worried about my safety."

Harry and Ron tried to look like they were already familiar with the story.

"If that's the case..." Professor McGonagall stared at them and muttered: "Miss Granger, you silly girl, the real troll is much more dangerous than you think. You should be glad that you didn't encounter it."

"Yes, you are right..."

Hermione hung her head.

Harry couldn't say a word, and Hermione would actually lie and say that she had violated school rules to get them out of trouble.

It was almost like Snape started handing out sweets to everyone, it was unbelievable.

"Miss Granger, Gryffindor will be deducted five points for this matter." Professor McGonagall said: "I am very disappointed in you. You'd better go back to Gryffindor Tower now."

Then he looked at Harry and Ron.

"It's you two again. I remember the last time you went to the eighth floor in the middle of the night to dismantle your armor, the confinement hasn't ended yet. You actually violated the school rules again?"

"No!" Ron blushed and explained: "There is something hidden in that armor, I saw it..."

"But all I saw then was you guys destroying it and there was nothing in there."

Professor McGonagall shook her head and said: "Okay, I don't want to pursue this matter anymore, and I won't do it next time.

In addition, because of your actions in helping Miss Granger today, the previous confinement has been lifted and you can leave now. "

Harry and Ron were overjoyed and hurriedly passed behind the professor and went upstairs without saying a word.

Kyle originally wanted to follow, but Snape stood in front of him.

"I don't think I heard your explanation."

Looking at Snape who was standing in the way, Kyle was puzzled.

No, Harry is already here, why is he still holding on to himself.

Did you change your mind about Lily so quickly?

In desperation, Kyle could only retreat to his original position and said:

"Because Professor Sprout rewarded me with an armored pumpkin shell, I have been studying it in the dormitory, and then I forgot to go to the banquet."

"Oh, armored pumpkin..." Snape twitched his nose and said, "Since you have been in the dormitory, why do you smell like a troll?"

"Have it?"

Kyle's expression remained unchanged and he said calmly: "I think this is probably the smell of compost... You know, that stuff is everywhere in the greenhouse.

Of course, if you don’t believe it, you can take my robe back and identify it carefully. "

With that said, he was about to take off his robe.

Kyle knew very well that he had used a cleansing spell on himself before, so there couldn't be any odor.

Snape was lying to him.
