Hogwarts Ordnance Manual

Chapter 30 We are brothers

Dudley made an eyepatch that would cover his eyes as long as he patted his wizard's hat, thus preventing him from being instantly killed when he encountered a basilisk, but there was still no important progress in other aspects.

Colin's attack occurred a few days earlier than described in the novel. He was supposed to be petrified after the Quidditch match on the weekend, but it didn't matter. The first game of the season between Gryffindor and Slytherin was still scheduled. Held, Lucius Malfoy also came specially to watch the game. As a shareholder of Hogwarts, he has always come and gone freely.

Maybe Lucius wanted to see if his investment of tens of thousands of gold coins could bring victory to his son, but unfortunately he was destined to be a villain without happiness.Harry, the son of the plane, will eventually win, leaving all the money Lucius had raised by selling his property in vain.

Dudley looked around while watching the battle. He noticed that neither Ron nor Hermione came to cheer for Harry. He suddenly remembered that the three of them had been tracing the truth about the Chamber of Secrets for the past two days, and finally decided to use Polyjuice Potion to become Slytherin. Looks like a student, and goes back to Malfoy's cliché.

Today, most of the students and teachers in the castle came to the Quidditch pitch. Ron and Hermione should take the opportunity to collect the ingredients for Polyjuice Potion.

If the problem of the Chamber of Secrets can be solved in advance, the Slytherin team and the Hufflepuff team will soon compete for the first time this season. At that time, Dudley felt that Lucius should not come to watch the game.If he saw his son being beaten away by Dudley, Lucius would definitely look like he had eaten a hundred flies.

Sure enough, seeing his son riding a broom unable to catch up with Harry, Lucius angrily smashed his crutches on the ground. Anyone who saw that the supercar he sponsored for the team lost to ae86 would be furious. , and the house elf at his feet made an unknown sound.

The Bludger played by a Slytherin player turned sharply in the air and hit Harry's elbow at an extremely fast speed. His arm was fractured on the spot and he almost fell from his body. He fell off the broom, but he still relied on his fighting spirit to catch the Golden Snitch with his left hand.

Dudley looked at Harry's twisted right arm and secretly thought that Dobby was indeed Harry's chosen one, and this might be more painful than being bitten by a basilisk.

Of course, Lockhart was Harry's second most important person. He trotted forward, eager to hurt Harry a second time.

In the end, Dudley took the initiative to help Harry go to the infirmary to receive "professional" treatment.Dudley knew that Harry was supposed to have met the first victim when he left the infirmary. Now it seemed that because of his presence, the plot had taken some deflections, but not much. There was a high probability that the No. 2 victim would be today.

The school nurse, Madam Pomfrey, gave Harry a large bottle of "Boneling", which was notoriously unpleasant to drink. Dudley felt a bitter taste in his mouth just looking at it, so Harry drank it all in one gulp.

The Gryffindors, excited about their victory, noisily came to visit Harry, bringing cakes, candies and pumpkin juice, but were quickly chased away by Madam Pomfrey.

"It's a bit difficult tonight, but try to let him sleep." Madam Pomfrey told Dudley that as a family member, Dudley could stay in the infirmary to take care of Harry.

When it got dark and Harry finally fell asleep, Dudley turned his head and saw Dobby hiding outside the door with half of his face showing, looking a little scared of Dudley even if he wanted to come in.

Dudley knew that Dobby had a lot to tell Harry, so he picked up the water glass and walked out, lowered his head and said to Dobby: "You guys talk, I'll go get some fresh air."

Dobby gave Dudley a grateful smile, though it was uglier than crying.

Dudley walked in the deserted corridor, took out the Marauder's Map and looked at it a few times. He really couldn't remember the name of the No. 2 victim, but he must not be in the dormitory at this time, and was probably wandering alone somewhere. , just like myself...

When Dudley thought of this, the hair on his back suddenly stood up. He would be a fool if he couldn't guess who the basilisk was going to attack at this time.

He suddenly looked up. At the corner of the corridor, at the top of the stone wall near the ceiling, the hard stone bricks bulged like marshmallows. The water supply pipes laid inside the stone walls seemed to be alive, emerging from the gaps in the stone bricks. Got out.

A terrifying aura that could make Dudley tremble with fear came from the water pipe, and a large black shadow appeared in the water pipe that had become transparent.

"Wtf!" Dudley didn't have time to turn his wrist into a double-barreled shotgun, and the target was still in the magic water pipe, about 15 meters away from him. There was no telling whether his bullets could break the water pipe. Even if it broke the water pipe, Snake The monster came out of the water pipe, and nine times out of ten, he would still be killed instantly.

He patted his hat and closed his eyes. The next moment, a pair of orange snake eyes came out of the water pipe, staring at Dudley fiercely. Dudley fell straight to the ground, still maintaining the frightened posture. like a statue.

The basilisk swam past Dudley's head along the water pipe. It seemed very angry and wanted to tear Dudley into pieces and beat him to pieces, but it eventually disappeared into the stone wall at the other end.

Dudley felt as cold as if he had fallen into an ice hole, his muscles were so cold that they ached, and his head felt as if someone had hit him hard with a steel pipe several times, but he knew that he had escaped, and the basilisk's gaze He didn't kill himself or turn himself into stone. The double insurance of his eye patch worked.

Just as he was about to get up, soft footsteps came from the other end of the corridor. Dudley did not dare to open his eyes, and the right hand hidden under his body gradually turned into a revolver, but then he heard Ginny's cry.

Along with the crying, Ginny muttered to herself vaguely. She wrote a few words on the wall next to Dudley in a daze, and walked away in a daze.

Dudley was glad that he didn't get up too early for Ginny to see through. She was obviously controlled by Tom Riddle's memory at this time. If she found out that he was safe and sound, he would definitely call the basilisk back.

When she was gone, Dudley got up with a whoosh. His hands and feet were still terribly cold, and he quickly walked through the corridor and ran back to the infirmary.

Dobby had already left, and Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall also came to visit Harry. Harry did not get much useful information from their conversations. Although Dumbledore had conducted large-scale explorations of the castle many times, he still did not understand. Know the location of the secret room and how to open it.

"Dudley, what's wrong with you? You look very uncomfortable." Harry looked at Dudley's pale face and asked with concern.

Dudley looked at his arm, where the bones were growing bit by bit, no less painful than repeated fractures, and sat down next to Harry.

"Do you know? Harry! It wasn't until just now that I discovered that you have more courage than me! Of course... your luck is not much better than mine." Dudley said, as a 24-year-old who has experienced many battles With a warrior mentality, he was still quite frightened by the basilisk. One can imagine Harry's fear when facing the basilisk at the age of 12, so at this moment he really admired the thin boy wearing black-rimmed glasses in front of him.

Although he didn't know what Dudley was talking about, Harry still said: "Thank you, Dudley, thank you for staying with me here!" Dudley could tell that he didn't just mean to be in the infirmary, but also to be with me. He was at Hogwarts together.

"We are brothers, you brat!" Dudley flicked Harry's head.
