HP Princess bravely enters Hogwarts

Chapter 24 Oops! We've Been Discovered

The next day, while dining in the Great Hall, Draco overheard Harry and Ron's plan to send Norbert to Romania and hand him over to Ron's brother Charlie Weasley. An anxious Draco immediately found Cygnus.

"Sister! Potter and Weasley are going to send Norbert away. We can't let it leave, or I'll never see it again!"

Draco said anxiously, fearing that this would be his last encounter with the dragon.

Cygnus patted his head gently to calm him down.

"Draco, don't worry. Norbert just went to a new home. If you want to see him again in the future, I promise to take you to Romania to see him."

Seeing that his sister had no intention of helping to keep Norbert, Draco gritted his teeth unwillingly, turned around and ran away.

Sensenas looked at the boy's back, thinking that he was just angry for the moment, and decided to finish the important matters of the day with Hermione first, and then comfort the lost heart.

Draco found Harry and Ron and told them why he was there.

"Listen Potter, Weasley, I will never allow you to send Norbert to Romania. He is so young!" Draco looked reluctant and stared at Harry and Weasley firmly.

Harry looked at Draco warily, "How do you know Norbert, Malfoy?"

Draco did not answer, but continued to speak stubbornly.

"You can't send it to Romania, or I will report that big guy, and you don't want that big guy to go to Azkaban, do you?"

Ron glared at Draco in frustration, while Harry frowned, looking very confused.

"Malfoy, what on earth do you want to do? Norbert will only become more and more dangerous here with us. Romania is a better choice for him."

Harry tried to make Draco understand.

Draco did not back down. His eyes were full of determination. "I don't care. I just want to keep Norbert. You can't just decide its fate like this!"

Just as Draco was in a stalemate with Harry and Ron, Cygnus found them with Hermione.

She gently pulled Draco over and said to everyone, "This is not a good place to talk about this. Let's go somewhere else."

She looked into Draco's moist grey-blue eyes and said gently, "I know you like dragons very much, Draco. I can find a way to let you touch Norbert, but the prerequisite is that you can no longer prevent it from leaving."

Draco's eyes widened, unable to believe this was real.

Led by Sensei, they found Hagrid.

Segnus explained her purpose to Hagrid, and looking at Draco's eager eyes, Hagrid's heart softened and he reluctantly agreed to their request.

Under Hagrid's guidance, Draco finally had the opportunity to get close to Norbert.

He carefully reached out his hand and gently stroked Norbert's rough skin, with endless love in his eyes. However, good times are always short-lived.

Draco looked up at Hagrid and couldn't help asking, "Hagrid, can you please not send Norbert away?"

Hagrid stared at Draco with wide eyes, and couldn't help feeling a pang of sadness in his heart.

He shook his head, tears welling up in his eyes: "I don't want to either, but there is no way, this is for Norbert's good."

Harry and Ron watched this scene from the side and couldn't help feeling a little moved.

Draco looked up and asked, "When are we going to send Norbert away?" Harry replied, "Tonight."

Draco bit his lip and said firmly: "I want to go with you to send Norbert away."

Harry looked at Ron, then nodded in agreement. "Meet in the tower that evening."

As night fell, the four of them arrived at the tower as planned. Under the moonlight, Norbert made Draco feel even more reluctant to leave.

Draco held Cygnus's hand tightly, tears welling up in his eyes. He knew that this was the last time he would be with Norbert.

The tower bell rang and Charlie Weasley arrived on time.

He was wearing a thick traveling cloak, with a smile on his face, and his eyes fell softly on Norbert.

Draco's heart grew heavier, he knew that the time of separation was approaching.

Charlie called four burly wizards, who carefully put Norbert into a huge box.

Harry, Ron, Hermione, Draco and Sigma stood aside and watched Charlie and the four wizards slowly raise the box containing Norbert on a broomstick.

Under the moonlight, they gradually went away and disappeared into the night sky.

Draco held onto Cygnus's hand tightly, and finally couldn't hold back his tears.

He understood that this separation was for Norbert's own good, but the reluctance in his heart still made him feel painful.

Cygnus hugged Draco gently and comforted him:

"Don't be sad, Draco. Charlie is a trustworthy person. He will help Norbert live a better life. Also, don't forget our agreement. I will take you to visit Norbert."

Just then, the voice of Mrs. Norris was heard. It was Filch's cat, and it seemed to have discovered something unusual.

Harry immediately realized the danger and wanted to cover everyone with the invisibility cloak, but the invisibility cloak was not big enough to cover so many people.

Sensei made a prompt decision and said to Harry, "Take Ron away first, I'll find a way."

She quickly pulled a potion from her pocket and handed it to Hermione and Draco, "Drink this, it will temporarily make you invisible."

Hermione and Draco took the potion and drank it down in one gulp.

However, Mrs. Norris smelled them and gave a loud cry, which was particularly harsh in the night, and attracted Snape, who happened to be passing by.

Snape frowned and walked over, his eyes sweeping over everyone present, finally landing on Mrs. Norris.

"Filch, why is your cat howling here again?" Snape said sarcastically.

Filch came over in a hurry, his face full of apology: "Professor, I'm so sorry, I will make it shut up immediately."

Snape ignored his apology and swept around the tower with his eyes like icy blades, as if searching for something.

Cygnus watched the scene, silently praying that Hermione and Draco could survive the invisibility.

Suddenly, Snape's sharp gaze fixed on a seemingly empty area of ​​ground, which was where Hermione and Draco were hiding.

His brows were furrowed, as if he had smelled something strange. Senus' heart sank, realizing that Snape had sensed something unusual.

At this tense moment, Harry and Ron's invisibility cloaks were accidentally stepped on by the panicked Filch.

Snape turned around abruptly, frowning, and asked sarcastically: "Potter, Weasley, what are you two doing here? Is your head full of splendor?"

Harry quickly responded, "Ron said he had hemorrhoids and wanted me to take him to the hospital wing."

Snape's eyes were as sharp as a needle, and he looked them both up and down, obviously sneering at such an explanation.

He sneered and said sarcastically, "Hemorrhoids? Potter, don't think this is still a place for you Gryffindors to act recklessly! You are blatantly violating school rules. Gryffindor House will pay a hundred percent price for your stupid behavior!"

Harry and Ron smiled at each other helplessly, knowing that they were in huge trouble.

At this time, Snape cast his sharp eyes at Filch again and ordered: "Filch, these two idiots are left to your care. Starting from tomorrow night, they will spend a period of detention under your supervision."

Filch nodded quickly, not daring to hesitate for the moment.

Snape's sharp eyes moved to where Hermione and Draco were hiding, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, as if he had seen through everything.

"Oh, it seems there are more than two night wanderers tonight." His voice was full of sarcasm.

He waved his wand, a flash of light appeared, and the figures of Hermione and Draco gradually appeared.

Snape looked at them and said sarcastically, "Is hemorrhoids contagious? Malfoy, Granger, you also suffer from this disease? How pitiful."

Draco and Hermione blushed and stood there awkwardly.

Snape continued, "I think Mr. Malfoy would not be too angry if he knew that his son also suffered from this disease?"

Snape's words made the atmosphere even more tense. Hermione and Draco looked at each other, not knowing how to respond.

Harry couldn't help but interrupt: "Professor Snape, we are really just..."

"Just what? Just wandering around the tower in the middle of the night with hemorrhoids?" Snape interrupted Harry, his tone even more caustic.

Snape glanced at Harry with disdain, as if he had seen through his thoughts.

"Don't waste your breath, Potter. You useless students always find all kinds of excuses for your stupid behavior." He swept his eyes over the four people and said coldly

"But you can't escape this time, Filch. These four little guys are in your care. Please take good care of them."

Filch showed a ferocious smile on his face, as if he had finally waited for the opportunity for revenge.

"Don't worry, Professor. I'll teach them a lesson about violating school rules."

He smiled sinisterly and pulled Harry, Ron, Hermione and Draco aside.

Snape watched them leave, a sneer on his face again.

"Remember, Gryffindor will pay for your actions. As for you..."

He turned to Draco, "You are really bringing disgrace to the reputation of Slytherin by hanging out with people like Potter and Weasley. I hope you can reflect on this under Filch's 'care'."

The footsteps of Snape and Filch disappeared at the end of the corridor, and the originally tense atmosphere eased a little.

Draco and Hermione were dejected, their hearts filled with helplessness and worry.

Just then, a slender figure walked out from the shadows. It was Segnus.

Cygnus walked up to them, patted Draco's shoulder gently, and smiled at Hermione and said, "Don't worry, I will protect you secretly."

Draco looked up at Cygnus, a hint of gratitude in his eyes: "Thank you, sister."

"Yes, Sensei, thank you." Hermione also said gratefully.

Segnus smiled and said, "You can go back to the academy. Take what happened tonight as a lesson. Remember, no matter what happens, you must stay calm."

With Cygnus's comfort, Draco and Hermione felt much better.

After they said goodbye to each other, they each headed towards their own colleges.

Harry and Ron looked at each other and returned to Gryffindor.
