After finally telling what he had been hiding all this time, Harry seemed to feel more relaxed.

Professor Trelawney's prophecy had always been weighing on his mind. Even if he convinced himself over and over again not to believe it, the facts told him that this prophecy was likely to come true.

Of course he didn't want to die, but he didn't know who to tell, not even Ron or Hermione.

If he told Ron, he would definitely panic and not know what to do with him.

Tell Hermione that she will scoff and disbelieve such things, and advise him not to believe them either.

But he had already seen the Ominous, and more than once.

Ever since he woke up this time, he had been very anxious, worrying whether the "unknown" would follow him until he really died; at the same time, he was thinking about what he heard when he was attacked by dementors, that his mother was The sound before the killing.

This has caused him to suffer pain that no one knows about, and now he finally tells one of the things.

Esther straightened her expression and asked Harry: "Have you seen black dogs several times? Where did you see them all? What happened again?"

Perhaps her expression was more serious, which made Harry feel nervous at night: "The first time was when I left my aunt and uncle's house that night, and I saw a big black dog appearing near me, and then I was almost beaten by a knight bus. Killed. The second time was during yesterday's game. When I was flying in the sky, I saw a big black dog appearing in the stands, but the big black dog quickly disappeared."

"Esther, do you remember what you said? That day when you were walking at night, you saw a bunch of dog footprints running towards the Gryffindor lounge!" Hermione suddenly grabbed Esther's shoulders in excitement: "If our guess is correct, does that mean Sirius Black has turned into a black dog and has been lurking around here?"

Ron's face also turned pale: "That prophecy... Harry! The "unknown" Professor Trelawney said has come true!"

Esther was much calmer than them all. She continued to look at Harry: "Is it just these two times? So did you find the shadow of the black dog when you boarded the Hogwarts Express?"

Harry thought about it carefully, then shook his head: "No, I didn't notice anything unusual that day, but..." He paused before hesitatingly said: "However, when I lived in Diagon Alley, I seemed to see The shadow of a black dog passed by, but I wasn’t sure.”

"That means that Sirius Black has been monitoring you around you. Maybe he also boarded the Hogwarts Express at that time, but we didn't notice it." Esther rubbed her chin, and it was serious. said.

"This is too dangerous!" Hermione gave a short scream: "This matter is beyond our control. We must tell Dumbledore!"

Ron nodded in agreement: "Yes! I feel scared when I think of Sirius Black always being around us. Fortunately, Harry is lucky. He probably never found the opportunity to attack Harry."

When Esther heard Ron say this, she pretended to think for a moment and then expressed her opinion: "I think it's not that he didn't find out who actually wanted to kill Harry. If everything is as we guessed, it means Sirius After Blake escaped from prison, he ran directly to Harry.

It was not that he had no chance to make a move during this period of time. At least there was a lot of people coming and going in Diagon Alley, and there were no dementors hunting for him there. If he really wanted to kill Harry, he could easily sneak into it. Cauldron, but he didn't do that, so I think his goal was not to kill Harry to avenge the Dark Lord, he should have other purposes. "

"So what's his goal?"

Ron felt that his head was a little hard to turn, and he almost gave up thinking.

Hermione and Harry also frowned in thought.

Esther stopped spoiling the story, as her purpose had been achieved.

Maybe Harry and the others couldn't understand it, but after they revealed the news to Dumbledore, Dumbledore, who knew the inside story, would definitely think more comprehensively than they did, and things would turn around.

only……

Esther lowered her eyes and hesitated for a moment, then said to them: "Hermione is right, this matter is beyond our control. We must tell Principal Dumbledore and other professors about this matter, but I can Can't I ask you something? When you tell Principal Dumbledore this matter, can you conceal my name?"

"Why?" Hermione asked in confusion: "You figured this out completely, and it should be your credit."

Esther showed a pitiful expression: "Because this matter also involves my night outing. Night outing is against school rules. I don't want Hufflepuff to lose points. Please, can you You can’t stop saying my name and just say that you thought of all this.”

"……All right."

Harry reluctantly agreed: "Actually, night outings are not a big deal. You have to know that almost all students in Gryffindor have gone out at night, even Hermione."

"Harry!" Hermione said dissatisfiedly: "Walking out at night is against school rules. It's not something worth showing off!"

Esther showed a smile and felt inexplicably lighter.

After the matter was discussed, Esther did not stay here for long and quickly left the infirmary and returned.

Harry and the others also acted very quickly. Hermione found Professor McGonagall and conveyed that they knew some clues about Sirius Black and wanted to meet Principal Dumbledore.

Then, Dumbledore appeared in the ward that day.

After the three Harrys finished explaining their speculations, Dumbledore showed a look of sudden realization: "Is this so?"

He murmured softly, his eyes hidden under the crescent-shaped glasses being obscure.

The wizard with all white hair and beard thought for a while, then looked up at Harry: "Are these all your guesses? Harry?"

It was difficult for Harry to lie to Dumbledore. His eyes were a little wandering, but he didn't want to break his promise to Esther.

So he bit the bullet and said, "Yes, yes."

Dumbledore nodded clearly: "Okay, I understand. You guys have a good rest and I will take care of the rest."

After saying that, the powerful wizard left in a hurry.

Harry breathed a sigh of relief after Dumbledore left.

Ron said: "Harry, I just realized that you don't seem to be very good at lying, you know? The look on your face just now clearly said "I'm lying"."

When Harry heard what Ron said, he immediately looked at Hermione in panic, seeking the answer: "Really?"

Hermione nodded in agreement: "Ron is right. That expression you just had... I knew you weren't telling the truth at first glance. However, Principal Dumbledore probably wouldn't have guessed it was Esther, so we weren't exposed." Her presence.”

really?

Harry didn't know why he was worried.
