[HP] Noble

The start of the Quidditch event seems to have diluted a little the previous atmosphere of terror on campus—after the first Slytherin vs. Hufflepuff event ended, everyone finally stopped discussing the topic of the Chamber of Secrets every day. And Scorpius finally stopped feeling like a moving plague when he walked the corridors.

Just when he thought he could breathe a sigh of relief—an attack by an unknown creature happened again.

It was very cold that night, and the wind was blowing outside the castle. Even if you didn't deliberately walk lightly, you would not hear any sound except the sound of the wind.Scorpius walked around a few places where the students often stayed. On the stairs leading to the library on the second floor, he met Ron Weasley's youngest little sister who was hurrying down. She didn't look very good--I don't know if it was because she saw the senior Slytherin, but Scorpius wasn't going to care about it, so he gently advised her to return to Granville before the curfew. After the Tower of Fendor, he turned around and rushed into the library almost without paying attention to it——

Successfully captured five seventh-year Ravenclaws trying to hide in the library and read all night.

The black-haired Slytherin breathed a sigh of relief after using an almost forceful tone to drive the few Ravenclaws who would rather give up their soft beds than stay in the cold library to their lounge. , tightened the cloak on his body and hurriedly trot towards the direction of the Slytherin cellar——

Just as he was praying that he would not open the door of the common room later and let him see the platinum noble who was leaning on the sofa and yawning and complaining about how slow he was, the senior Slytherin suddenly stopped, and subconsciously slammed his screen Hold your breath... The scene in front of you made Scorpius almost stunned - he was expressionless and numb with shock, looking at the open space on the only way from the auditorium to the Slytherin common room ——Evidently not just now—but now it suddenly appeared...

unconscious student.

In the dark night, the scarlet Gryffindor robe on his body was particularly dazzling.

This time the person who was attacked was a first-year Gryffindor, a classmate of the youngest sister of the Weasley family, Ginny. I heard that they were still regular partners in potions class. Colin Creevey", who was lying on the ground like a corpse when Scorpius found him, and beside him was a broken Muggle camera.

Scorpius approached Gryffindor who was lying on the ground, bent down and checked his breath, he was relieved to find that he was still alive, and when he carefully picked up the camera, it was still there Unpleasant blue smoke was blowing out "sizzling" - Scorpius looked at the camera in the book, and then accurately found a cover on the side, and just pressed the black cover lightly and it was popped open The groove where the film was placed was exposed, and followed by a puff of black smoke...

Scorpius coughed twice, frowned, and when he took out the film for inspection, he found that, for some reason, the film in the camera was burnt, and it seemed that he could no longer use the film to view the contents— — but in this case, the camera didn't catch fire, just the film went bad, as if someone had poured a strong acid solution into the film slot.

The Slytherin prefect sighed, put the camera back next to the first-year Gryffindor, and was about to leave here and turn to find a professor for help—but the moment he turned around, he bumped into Landing on an invisible object, he staggered back two steps, then accurately stretched out his hand to grab and pull in the air, and then, accompanied by a low growl, a panicked figure appeared in the midair Potter head.

Then, the second eyewitness at the scene of the incident appeared.

Scorpius raised his eyebrows and was about to say something, but at this moment, the Savior of Gryffindor saw Colin lying unconscious at their feet—

The Gryffindor savior widened his green eyes as if in disbelief, and he looked at Colin with a look of relief after seeing his heaving chest - but then that look immediately Becoming tense, he raised his head abruptly, stared at the black-haired Slytherin in front of him, and growled lowly: "What did you do to him!"

"Don't be stupid, Potter." Scorpius sneered, "I still want to ask you this question, I am the night watchman, and I walked over from the library in a fair way-and you, sneakily dressed Your invisibility cloak is haunting here - no matter how you look at it, you are more suspicious than me."

"Don't talk stupid!" Harry snarled, "I've only just been here!"

"one person?"

"one person!"

"In other words, there is no witness." Pretending not to hear Potter's annoyed roar, Scorpius shrugged, watching Gryffindor struggling to free himself from under the invisibility cloak, when Harry When Li rolled up the gauze-like thing under his armpit and raised his head to stare at him again, the former smirked at him, "I'm so happy, now we are grasshoppers on a blade of grass."

……

Colin's attack naturally brought a new wave of panic to Hogwarts-accurately speaking, it was a more serious negative impact than the previous attack on Mrs. Norris... If Mrs. Norris was killed... At that time, people were only discussing this matter verbally, so after Colin was killed, some people began to take real actions——

Oh, of course, it’s not that the professor has taken any strict protection measures. The “those people” of “someone” are probably students like the Weasley twins who are relatively short of money, more imaginative, and able to see business opportunities at any time.

In the beginning, Scorpius confiscated a voodoo doll on a first-year body. Of course, it was not a real black magic item with a gypsy black witch spell. It was just an ugly doll with a few ghost symbols drawn on it. Forget it, Scorpius confiscated it and threw it on the table in the Slytherin common room. After Draco took it and fiddled with it for a while, he threw it into the burning fireplace.

Originally, Scorpius thought that this was the end of the matter, but he soon discovered that this seemed to be just the beginning.

Soon, all kinds of talismans became popular in the school, dried grass roots mixed together in small cloth bags, or jewelry woven from ordinary red strings - the most outrageous things Scorpius has ever seen And the most professional derivative is the Snake Chee Chi that Neville Longbottom hangs around his waist. The Snake Chi Chi was soaked in an unknown turbid oil, and then sealed with soft plastic... I heard it was his Grandma took back the evil relic from a wizard in Southeast Asia. While in the corridor, Scorpius heard Ron and Neville say loudly: "Don't be afraid, Neville, you are a pure blood-whether it is Some monster or someone, he will definitely not attack you."

Amid the sincere envy from those around him, Neville nodded nervously.

Then Scorpius stepped forward to confiscate his "Evil Relic" directly, and told the two Gryffindors what the point of this matter was.

On the fourth day of Colin's murder, I don't know which professor or maybe Potter himself slipped up and found out that the first person who was attacked by Colin was "Scorpius from Slytherin." Mr. Gretel" and "Mr. Harry Potter from Gryffindor" leaked out. As the protagonist of the incident, Scorpius, who has always been low-key and low-key, was pushed to the forefront for the first time.

And it's still in this time and space that doesn't belong to him that he absolutely can't make a high profile.

This matter is troublesome - to be precise, when Scorpius realized that everyone was discussing his business, he really had the urge to stab Mr. Savior of Gryffindor with his wand .

"I don't think there's anything wrong with this." Walking in the corridor, looking at the students who automatically retreated to the sides and stared at them in horror as if they were splashing venom as they walked, the tone of the platinum nobleman sounded relaxed and happy, "It's been a long time since I've had the privilege of walking unimpeded through the corridors at the end of class, without having to yell 'give way'—and even if I did, it was ignored before."

"Of course, they didn't look at you like a poisonous snake." Scorpius said angrily, lowering his voice, "I just happened to pass by the night watch-if I knew the attacking creature, I would not Let it do it when only I will meet!"

Draco chuckled, looking aggressive towards the senior Slytherin next to him was a punctuation mark, he didn't bother to believe it, he clamped the thick dictionary under his arm, He was going to ask Scorpius to help him share the potion papers handed in by the Slytherins and waiting for him to hand them over to Professor Snape, but at this moment, they saw the notice board at the end of the corridor. It was crowded with people.

Everyone seems to be very interested in the content on the paper that looks like a new post on the bulletin board. People are discussing and whispering to each other about something——

Standing outside the crowd, Draco narrowed his eyes slightly, but there were so many people in front of him, even if he tried to stand on tiptoe, he couldn't see what was written on it. Scorpius wanted him to go into the auditorium together and wait until lunch was over. He came out to look slowly, but at this moment, he saw Draco's back heel landed on tiptoe.

Then the platinum nobleman turned his head and looked at him.

When Scorpius saw him like this, he suddenly felt a little confused, and was about to ask him what he was looking at, but at this moment, he saw a lazy smile on the face of the platinum nobleman. At a much higher volume, and drawn out to his liking, he said: "Oh, there you are, Mr. Great--good afternoon."

Scorpius: "..."

The students who were still chattering and discussing suddenly fell silent—to the extent that someone had cast an extremely powerful silencing spell.

They turned their heads in unison, and after seeing the expressionless senior Slytherin standing behind them, there was a bang, and the students who were crowded together a second ago were like a piece of loose sand. All of them suddenly scattered from the front of the bulletin board—that effect, even Moses standing in front of the sea would feel ashamed.

"Nice job, Mr. Malfoy," said Scorpius dryly.

"Don't be so serious, Gretel—you have to find a little benefit for yourself in the pressure others put on you, which will help you relax." Draco shrugged at him and smirked, Then he swaggered to the empty signboard.

"I really don't think so." Scorpius muttered, and then walked forward as if calmly accepting the fact.

Draco narrowed his eyes slightly without looking back, letting the shadow cast by the senior Slytherin behind him cover him, he raised his head and read the contents of the paper carefully—until he finished reading After the last word and the signature, he said to the people behind him in a mocking tone: "A large version of the eloquent words, except for unnecessary nonsense and wrong ancient honorifics, the main content is probably our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. He believes that in the current environment, it is necessary for students to learn how to protect themselves in a formal wizarding battle, so he decided to hold a 'Duel Club' every Friday night, and tonight is the first meeting."

Scorpius: "Oh..."

Draco: "To put it simply, this is preparing to organize students to start learning to deal with your attack at any time?"

Scorpius: "...uh."

Draco: "That professor's IQ has finally dropped to the same level as Neville Longbottom. It's really gratifying."
