Unseal at Hogwarts

"Nothing." Professor Snape looked away, "You can leave."

Tom blinked doubtfully: "Good night, Professor."

After finishing speaking, he took Kerubelos and left the potion office.

"etc!"

Just when Tom was about to close the door of the office, Professor Snape spoke again.

If you have something to say, please make it clear once and for all!

Tom shouted in his heart, hesitating like this is really scary to death.

"In order to ensure that you do not go on a second night tour, I think it is necessary for me to monitor your whereabouts." Professor Snape strode to Tom's side.

Why does this sound so awkward?

Tom turned his head to look at Professor Snape in confusion, but all Professor Snape left for him was an expressionless face.

Forget it.

Tom acted like a little tail and walked dejectedly, perfectly interpreting the image of a student who was caught after violating school rules.

On the way back to the dungeon, Tom also found Mrs. Norris peeking around a corner.

Tom, whose eyesight was not bad, could clearly understand the expression on Mrs. Lorris's face - the slightly narrowed eyes seemed to say: "I have worked so hard to protect you, and yet I still get caught. It's really too much."

Weak."

This really made Tom blush with shame.

"Ta-ta-ta"

The corridor echoed with the footsteps of Tom and others.

Professor Snape walked in front in silence, and Tom followed at a trot.

Suddenly, there was an unusual noise from the empty classroom nearby.

"Squeak—clang!"

Professor Snape immediately stopped in alarm, drew out his wand, and quickly cast a bright light spell into the classroom.

"Bang!"

There was no one in the classroom, except for a few tables that fell heavily from mid-air to the ground.

"puff!"

Professor Snape's reaction was so fast that Tom didn't even have time to stop his feet, and his whole body hit Professor Snape's back, making a sound of physical collision.

Professor Snape stretched out his hand to fish it out, and supported Tom who was unsteady due to the impact, while still observing the surroundings vigilantly.

"——哐——哐——"

The sound of the table hitting the ground echoed in the empty castle, adding a bit of horror to the atmosphere.

Tom rubbed his red nose and looked at each other.

The "Shadow" card appears!

This couldn't have come at a worse time.

Tom had a grimace on his face and peeked out of the corner of his eye at Professor Snape, who was protecting him tightly.

"If I catch the student who doesn't sleep, I will definitely arrest him and punish him severely."

Filch's cursing voice grew closer and closer.

Tom covered his face with a snap.

The "Shadow" card just wants to cause him big trouble!

Once this happens, I'm afraid not only Filch, but also the professors will know that he is an undisciplined student who wanders at night.

Doesn't this just make it more difficult for him to seal the Clow Card?

Or is the "Shadow" card so clever that it even helps arrange the escape route for future companions?

Hey!

Professor Snape was still looking around with a straight face, but Filch had already arrived.

"Ha! So it's you!" Filch stretched out his hand without hesitation and pointed at Tom, with an excited look on his face. "No wonder I saw your pet tonight. Sure enough, you were out for a night out! That noise just now

Did you do it? Ah! Professor Snape!"

After Filch chatted a lot, he noticed that Professor Snape, who was dressed in black, was also there.

He nodded and bowed, showing a humble smile: "So it's you who caught this kid. I'm sorry to bother you to come out. Just leave this kid to me, and I will let him know the consequences of violating school rules."

Tom wanted to tell Filch that Professor Snape had already given the punishment.

But after all, he was the one who made the mistake first, and he was not sure what his dean was thinking, so he stood aside without saying a word, pretending that he was just an inconspicuous decoration in the corridor.

"You don't need to worry about this kid whose brain was eaten by a troll." Professor Snape nodded coldly to Filch, "You can continue patrolling."

Filch turned around and left reluctantly, not forgetting to look back before leaving, as if expecting Professor Snape to change his mind.

Tom watched Filch leave, but Rubelos even waved his paw politely to say goodbye.

But under Professor Snape's gaze, which was so cold that someone could freeze to death, Rubelos put down his paws in a sullen voice.

"Follow up."

Seeing that there was no more movement around, Professor Snape took Tom and continued walking towards the dungeon.

Fortunately, the "Shadow" card did not appear again, and Tom obediently walked into the Slytherin lounge under the watch of Professor Snape.

The door to the common room was closed behind Tom, cutting off Professor Snape's sight.

Tom wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and fell softly on the sofa in the lounge.

"It's over..." Tom said weakly, "I don't know how Professor Snape will punish me during the confinement... I heard that Professor Snape is the most severe..."

"Don't they all say that Professor Snape is extremely partial?" But Rubelos felt that Tom would not receive any substantial punishment, "Look, even if you were caught wandering at night, he would still send you back.

And when the 'Shadow' card caused trouble just now, he protected you immediately."

Tom's face dropped and he looked at Kerubelos with a "you don't understand" look.

"So this is the scariest thing." Tom said, "A student of my own college who I have always favored was caught violating school rules. Although I didn't say anything, secretly I was definitely going to punish me so that I would never dare to do it again.

Until then."

But Ruberos smiled crookedly, feeling that Tom was unfounded.

But seeing Tom's state, it couldn't listen to advice, so it simply let Tom think about it.

"I'm going to bed first." Rubelus opened his mouth and yawned widely, "You can just worry about it here."

Tom quickly jumped up from the sofa and walked into his and Harry's dormitory in three steps at a time.

Harry was lying on the bed sleeping soundly.

After Tom washed up gently, he put on his pajamas and went to sleep.

A dreamless night.

Early the next morning, Tom was shaken awake by Harry.

"Wake up quickly, if you don't get up, you'll be late for class." As soon as Harry saw Tom opening his eyes, he ran into the bathroom in a panic.

The sound of water sounded, and Tom picked up the wand and checked the time. His sleepiness disappeared without a trace in an instant.

He immediately jumped out of bed.

I slept too late last night and was only woken up by Harry now.

They probably won't be able to eat breakfast, and they won't be able to make it in time for Professor Flitwick's Charms class soon.
