Connor's Hogwarts

Chapter 478 "Big News"

----

"Did you hear what happened last night?"

"I heard I heard! There are a lot of snakes running in the school! I heard Steven from Hufflepuff say that he and his girlfriend were surrounded by dozens of snakes in the toilet last night!"

"Wow! It's so scary! Fortunately, we are all staying in the auditorium. How did you say those snakes got in?"

"I don't know, but compared to this, I want to know why Steven is in the toilet with his girlfriend."

"You all know what happened last night, right?"

"I know, I know! The school was attacked by a black wizard! I heard that some people were almost bitten by snakes!"

"I know it, I know it too! The battle was very fierce! The paintings in the castle were blown up! I heard that some people saw the mark of the Death Eaters! It was really scary!"

"And have you seen the writing on the corridor on the third floor? The writing that can't be erased by magic is said to be left behind by the Death Eaters who invaded the school!"

"I heard that you witnessed what happened last night!?"

"That's right, I was going to the toilet at the time, and suddenly hundreds of snakes came out of the toilet! If I didn't learn Defense Against the Dark Arts well, I would have been bitten to death by a snake!"

"So you fought those snakes!!?"

"I can't help it. I was also forced to do nothing. If I didn't resist at that time, I would have died in Shekou. I fought hundreds of rounds with those poisonous snakes. It took all my strength to survive until the professor came to save me. Alas, I was still too Weak."

"No, no, no! You are already very good at being able to stand against the poisonous snake for so long!"

"Did you hear what happened last night?"

"I heard, I heard! Last night, a very terrifying death eater broke into the school and launched a terrorist attack. Thousands of poisonous snakes surrounded the school. Many senior students participated in the battle, and now some people are injured Stay in the school infirmary, thank the professors and seniors for protecting us!"

"That's right, that's it. It is said that those Death Eaters broke into the school for Slytherin's treasure. Did you see the writing on the wall on the third floor! The heir of Slytherin is beside us!"

"It's terrible! We won't be in danger!?"

"Don't worry, we have Professor Dumbledore here, everything will be fine"

……

"."

On the first floor of the castle, in front of the wall covered with dilapidated portraits, a lonely handsome guy who is so handsome is sitting cross-legged on a floating carpet and working alone...

There are a lot of strange materials and props on the flying carpet. The lonely handsome guy is using these props to restore the paintings on the wall. He is as eye-catching as a firefly in the dark night, but the students passing by all turn a blind eye to him , which makes his back look extraordinarily lonely
This lonely British boy is Connor. At this time, he accepted the commission of the school professors to restore the magic painting of the castle. He accepted such hard work, but the reward in exchange was only negligible No need to hand in homework].
Regarding this kind of unfair treatment, Connor dared not speak out, because he is a good student, and the professors who assigned him the task are the professors of the college. A good student must listen to the teacher. This is called respecting the teacher. , Connor had no choice.

Today is Halloween, Sunday is obviously a rest day, but Connor has already worked for half a day
Alas, it is really difficult to be a good student, thinking of this, Connor can't help feeling sad
- This is a lie!

The lonely back is just Connor's appearance, but it is not the case.

Do you really think Connor would waste his time on such manual labor?Impossible, repairing magic paintings is not making magic paintings, there is no technical content at all, this kind of pure brainless repetitive labor can be handed over to the golems, what Connor really needs to do is to draw a picture It's just a skill chip.

It's just that he'll have to keep pretending for a few more days before teaching his puppet maids the technique.

What?Homework you say?Words that are spoken out are water spilled, and Connor doesn't have to hand in any homework this month!This was approved by the professors themselves!

So the sad boy who looks lonely from the back actually thinks [Wuhu!Great!take off! 】

He only needs to put on a show first, and then tell the professors in a few days that he will move the magic painting to another place for repairs, and then he can fish openly!

Although he lost some performance time in the early stage, but in exchange for a "labor subsidy" that does not have to hand in homework for a month, Connor feels that this wave of blood has earned him!
Thinking of this, even the depression of being dumped by the man in black last night faded a bit, and listening to the little wizards passing by here leisurely discussing the "truth" of last night, Connor almost didn't laugh speak out.

I feel that if I give them a few more days to discuss, it will not be the Death Eaters attacking Hogwarts, but Ultraman fighting Medusa. These rumors are outrageous.

But that's good, at least the little wizards don't have a clear idea of ​​what happened last night. If the public opinion has always been in this state, there will be no troubles in the school.

It's a pity that the professors didn't hang magic paintings on Connor in the castle, otherwise the school newspaper would be used to guide the public opinion, and the matter would probably calm down soon.

Although the black-robed man is thoughtful, he still has limited vision and doesn't know how to use the power of public opinion. If it were me, I would throw some insider information into the newspaper at this time, and it would bring down the school casually. Heh, it's just a native who can only play tricks, this kind of enemy is nothing to be afraid of
Connor's mentality is quite good at this time. Although it was true that the thief who dared not show his face last night, that person just took advantage of others in the dark, and he did a lot of things of unknown meaning. Things, the results did not cause much impact at all.

The newspapers this morning did publish the "snake plague" incident at Hogwarts, but because there were no casualties, the professors at the school were able to withstand the pressure of public opinion, and the rest is probably just a matter of wrangling, the problem not big.

To sum it up, after one night, apart from the fact that the students had one more topic to talk about, there seemed to be no change at all in the school.

Connor was a little worried at the beginning, but nothing happened for a long time. Now he wonders if he overestimated this "enemy", and it was actually a false alarm in the end?
Since you are nothing more than that, then obediently wait for me to find you out——

"Connor! Connor! It's bad—"

At this moment, Connor heard Alice's shout. He looked down and found that Alice was waving a newspaper and running towards him. Connor staggered and had a very bad premonition.

He jumped off the blanket, walked quickly to Alice, and asked, "Alice, what's the matter?"

Alice handed the newspaper to Connor, her tone trembling: "This is a supplement published urgently by the Daily Prophet, please take a look."

Connor took the newspaper and read it, and the headline was very eye-catching: "This kind of thing happened at Hogwarts on the eve of Halloween?" "

Then he saw three magical photos at a glance——

The first picture: overwhelming writhing snakes.

The second picture: Harry is holding a wooden sword and "spitting snake letters" towards the snakes.

The third picture is the scene where Connor is holding a pen and leaving words on the wall on the third floor.
