Chapter 81 Good Night
"Professor Dumbledore."

They greeted Dumbledore.

Phoenix Fox stepped on his shoulder, looking at it with great interest, but was quickly driven away by the smell that was still in the air.

"I already know. Thank you for your hard work."

Dumbledore nodded.

Snape wanted to say something, but before he could open his mouth, he was immediately forced back by a look from Dumbledore, and he obediently shut his mouth.

"William, the Ravenclaw students are all in the common room, please don't worry Professor Flitwick too much?"

Dumbledore looked at William and said calmly.

This was obviously just an excuse to let him go.

"Of course, Professor."

William bid them farewell and headed in the direction of Ravenclaw Tower - he had a creepy feeling to be with a furious Dumbledore.

He quickly returned to the common room.

As soon as the door opened, William felt himself being hugged hard—the hands were so hard that he felt like he couldn't breathe.

He lowered his head and saw long messy brown hair.

William smelled a very familiar aroma.

"For God's sake! You're back!"

He heard Penello yell.

Jimmy also came over, he hugged Gable, there were many deep scratches on his hands, they obviously came from Gable's claws.

Although he usually looks like an idiot, Gable's strength and agility are truly at the level of magical creatures. When he was in Mr. Ollivander's shop before, he overturned a very heavy cabinet.

"You didn't show up at the dinner party. Later we thought you met the dark wizard Gable and wanted to sneak out to find you, but Professor Flitwick said before leaving with Professor Dumbledore that no one is allowed to act alone."

Jimmy explained.

"Tell me, what happened, okay?"

William patted Penello on the back with his right hand, and she took two steps back in embarrassment. Gable jumped out of Jimmy's arms and stepped on William's shoulder.

They sat together by the fire.

"Actually, we don't know much. During the dinner, Professor Quirrell broke into the auditorium suddenly, saying that there was a dark wizard outside the castle.

He whispered something to Professor Dumbledore, and then Professor Dumbledore left with McGonagall, Flitwick, and Professor Snape. "

Penello rested her chin on her right hand, sitting on the sofa and recalling—she blinked, her cheeks were a little red, maybe it was because of the temperature of the stove.

"To keep Dumbledore from coming back for so long must have been some unspeakable means."

William thought about it, and Dumbledore had arranged for Remus Lupine to wait in the corridor on the fourth floor early on, indicating that he had long expected that someone would take advantage of the Halloween dinner.

There aren't many possible ghosts at Hogwarts.

McGonagall, Flitwick, and Professor Sprout naturally didn't mention it. The only real possibility is the later Professor Quirrell, and the former Death Eater Snape who may have hope because of necromancy.

"For Quirinus Quirrell, who had a weak sense of existence before, Dumbledore was not familiar enough, so naturally he didn't trust him very much - he was too familiar with Snape, so he would doubt it.

He thought he could come back in time and solve all the problems, but he didn't expect to be held back. "

William restored what happened.

"Professor Dumbledore and the others haven't come back. Many people are saying that the dark wizard broke into the castle-but Professor Sprout criticized this statement and asked us to go back to our respective common rooms."

"Professor Quirrell was with us before, but he suddenly thought of something and was about to leave suddenly, and let Robert Hilliard lead the team instead."

Jimmy added.

"Do you know what happened?"

he asked William.

William also hesitated.

He really didn't know how to explain this question-"Professor Quirrell is actually a diehard Voldemort in hiding, he almost arranged me with two professor-level wizards, and now it can be stuffed directly into the casing to make British sausages. "

The door to the common room opened suddenly.

"It's Professor Dumbledore! We're safe!"

"Where did he go before?"

"Has the group of black wizards been repelled by him?"

The Ravenclaws were whispering.

Professor Dumbledore clapped his hands.

"Please allow me to take a moment of your time to announce a few things: first of all, you can rest assured that Hogwarts Castle is safe - along with several professors, I have reconfirmed that the castle's defensive spells are intact.

No dark wizard will be able to break into the castle from the outside. "

His words brought a sigh of relief to many.

"But I must also regret to inform you that our Professor Quirrell is actually a dark wizard—we have evidence to believe that he is related to the case that happened in Knockturn Alley not long ago.

In fact, he may have orchestrated that incident. "

Professor Dumbledore suddenly dropped a bomb.

"You are joking!"

Penello said loudly.

There are many students who share her views - Quirrell's Defense Against the Dark Arts class is very popular, he will use vivid pictures to illustrate, and teach them to use harmless, but a little offensive little spells in class .

"Miss Clearwater, please trust our judgment, we have found conclusive evidence that can prove his identity as a dark wizard.

Actually, that's the next thing I want to say. "

Dumbledore pressed his palms, signaling for everyone to be quiet for a while and listen carefully to what he said—but William suddenly had an ominous premonition.

"Isn't that the conclusive evidence that I am?"

William saw Dumbledore suddenly smile.

"In order to thank Mr. Buffalo for helping us discover Professor Quirrell's identity as a dark wizard, and for his bravery to stand up and protect the injured Professor Snape from Quirinus Quirrell, I think we One hundred points must be added to Ravenclaw.

He will also receive a special contribution to Hogwarts. "

Dumbledore announced loudly.

No one spoke.

"Students, good night."

He adjusted his wizard hat and disappeared through the door.

The Ravenclaw common room suddenly exploded.

Exclamations, screams, and cheers came together—everyone looked at William's position, expecting him to share some information, whether it was the process of his discovery or the magic weapon used to fight Quirrell. curse.

But fortunately, Ravenclaw is different from Gryffindor. At least they will not form a group, hug each other, or lift William high.

"The last time Hogwarts awarded the Special Contribution Award was 50 years ago, in recognition of a student named Tom Riddle who helped find the heir to the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets."

Jimmy said enviously.

"I got Filch out of jail for cleaning the trophy room, and to be honest, that's really not a great memory."

He explained.

"What happened?" Penello asked, but before William could answer, she stood up suddenly, gave him a full hug, and then let go of her hand with a flushed face as if she had touched a hedgehog.

She ran to the girls' dormitory without looking back.

"What the hell am I thinking!"

Penello's mind was a mess.

She just felt that it must be a very dangerous thing for William to have to fight Quirrell in order to protect Professor Snape - anyone would want a hug after going through something like this.

But after hugging William, she realized how inappropriate it was.

"Good night."

Penello thought.

"Good night."

William sat on the sofa thinking.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the vaulted principal's office on the eighth floor of the castle can be described as terrible.

 Monthly tickets and rewards continue to gossip for a day, and business trips are miserable. .
