The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

"You are so brave!"

Professor McGonagall walked into the auditorium with a grim expression.

And behind her were Snape and Madam Pomfrey.

It was just different from Professor McGonagall's stance of hitting Huanglong, but Snape and Madam Pomfrey first focused their attention on the injured at the scene.

"Professor McGonagall, Link Foley is the heir! He just committed a crime in public!"

A Gryffindor boy in the crowd charged towards Professor McGonagall, brandishing a newspaper.

However, just after a few steps, Professor McGonagall used his eyes to force him back.

"We will decide who the murderer is, we don't need you to remind me!" Professor McGonagall's mouth trembled with anger, "and your actions are blatantly flouting the school rules!"

Hearing that, the crowd who were still angry suddenly quieted down, but that didn't mean they were convinced.

After all, it was them who were beaten just now, but now Professor McGonagall doesn't mean to "do justice" for them.

Professor McGonagall looked at the unconvinced faces, and was also very irritable.

She knew very well that this incident was largely caused by the accumulation of dissatisfaction from everyone for too long.

If such 'house arrest' continues, similar incidents will surely happen again.

After hesitating for a while, she still announced:

"Everyone involved in this matter will be punished! In addition, starting this afternoon, we will officially resume classes, and the rest of the arrangement will remain unchanged!"

After speaking, Professor McGonagall waved, and several prefects and other professors who did not participate entered the crowd, began to treat the injured and took away the participants.

On the other hand, Link and Emily were taken out of the auditorium by Snape.

"From today, you will live in my office first."

Snape was talking as he walked down the corridor.

Hearing that, Link pouted indifferently and said:

"No need, they can't hurt me."

"I'm afraid you will hurt them!"

Snape raised the volume abruptly.

Link was speechless for a moment.

The three of them came to the familiar potions professor's office in silence. Snape quickly sorted out two shabby rooms and hurried out, without the slightest idea of ​​continuing to talk with Link.

Looking at the two rooms and Emily, Link asked with some doubts:

"Are you going to live here, Emily?"

After hearing this, Emily stared at Link with a complicated expression for a while, and then she asked nonsense:

"Why didn't you run with me just now?"

"That's a cure for the symptoms but not the root cause. What if I ran away at the time? Their prejudice against me is deeply rooted, and they will come to me in the future."

"Only appropriate force deterrence can make them retreat, and I also have the ability to control the situation at the scene. Don't you think this is perfect now?"

Link said expressionlessly.

Now he is still in the state of Occlumency, so what he said is extremely rational.

Judging from his current mode of thinking, the facts are exactly as he said.

"But then they will think you are the heir even more!"

"It's okay, I don't care what they think. I know I'm not, and so do you, right?"

Link spoke sincerely, but Emily was silent when she heard the words.

She stared at Link with an almost crying expression, shaking her head as she retreated to a room Snape had just sorted out.

"Bang!"

The door closed tightly.

Link was the only one left in Snape's slightly crowded and dimly lit office.

Feeling the throbbing pain in his heart, Link took a deep breath.

...

A few hours later, everyone who received the notice of class resumption gathered in the classroom of Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Even though this class is the nasty one of Lockhart again, it's still the first class everyone has had in days.

So today everyone is surprisingly not late, and they are still talking and laughing together.

Then, Link appeared.

At this time, Link's face was gloomy, and he looked very depressed.

The moment Link appeared, the original cheerful atmosphere in the classroom dissipated instantly.

Everyone bowed their heads in silence, not daring to look at Link.

Link didn't care about this, he silently walked into the classroom, then picked a seat at random and sat down.

Sitting next to him was a Ravenclaw girl.

Now her face was pale, and her hands were tightly clutching the hem of her skirt.

If she could, she really wanted to tell Link that he was sitting in the wrong seat, and that the seat he was sitting in now belonged to the Ravenclaw camp.

It's a pity that she didn't dare to speak to Link at all.

Not only her, but even the other Ravenclaws sitting around Link dared not.

The power Link showed in the auditorium this morning was terrifying!

One person singled out a group of senior students, this is simply a monster!

And it is said that the other party is still the heir of Slytherin, and he will tear open the corners of other people's mouths to make others happy...

Thinking of other terrifying rumors about Link, the Ravenclaw girl felt like she almost fainted.

But at this moment, a gentle voice came to her ears.

"Excuse me, can I switch places with you?"

"Eh?"

The girl raised her head in surprise, and saw a tall boy in a Hufflepuff uniform looking at her with a smile.

That smile is as gorgeous as the spring sunshine!

"Good... good!"

The girl gave up her seat with glowing eyes, and John was relieved to hear that.

This was the first time he had asked Ravenclaw to change his class seat, and he had thought he would be rejected.

Sitting down carefully, John looked at Link beside him and said worriedly:

"You're all right, Link."

Link looked up at John with an expressionless face, and his eyes stayed on the gauze wrapped around the other's head for a while before saying:

"I'm fine, does your injury matter?"

"Hahaha! This little injury is nothing! Madam Pomfrey has already helped me deal with it!" John smirked a few times, looking for a topic, "But Professor McGonagall is really too much! This kind of thing happens. We're going to be called to class! Wouldn't it be better if I just temporarily shut down Hogwarts and let us all go home?"

Hearing that, Link nodded and said nothing.

The reason why Professor McGonagall and Dumbledore did not close the school was that they wanted to catch a turtle in the urn for the remnant of Voldemort.

He knew this very well, but at the moment he didn't want to explain it to John.

Emily's questioning had hit him too hard.

He originally thought that Emily would definitely give him 100% trust, but the truth slapped him hard.

Emily, would actually suspect him...

Link closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

Seeing this, John on the side looked like he was hesitant to speak.

He could see that Link was in a wrong mood, and wanted to try to comfort him.

Unfortunately, the effect is not good.

But at this moment, an excited voice sounded.

"Classmates! It's been a long time since you missed me? Your most beloved professor is back!!"
