Slytherin Conduct Thirty: Too Much Words Are Lost

As soon as Easter was over, the second grade students ushered in the big event of their first step in life - the third grade course selection, which will affect their future life to some extent. Draco was already familiar with this, but Harry wasn't ready for this yet.

"It depends on what you do in the future, Harry, it's very important," said Harry, who was sitting in front of the fireplace in the common room, chatting with Sirius in the double-sided mirror, and was instructed by his godfather, "If you want to enter Ministry of Magic, like the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Department, then at least you need to take 'Muggle Studies', and if you're going to go to Gringotts to be an exciting spellbreaker, then you may want to take Arithmancy, but honestly, I I think the protection of magical creatures class is more useful, because you can get to know more interesting creatures, and it will be more convenient to enter and leave the Forbidden Forest..."

Draco shook his hand beside him, ink dripped on the homework parchment, he cleaned the stain, thinking to himself, Sirius persuaded Harry to take Care of Magical Creatures because of the last sentence.

"Siris!" The double-sided mirror shook for a while, and Remus took it away, "Harry, don't listen to Sirius' nonsense, choosing to protect magical creatures is to some extent helpful for Potions and Defense Against the Dark Arts, Because all kinds of magical creatures always have their own unique defenses and dangers... Sirius, be mature! Don't ruin Harry's potions grade just because you don't like potions class-I say, Padfoot, you And just because you don't like Severus, you can't instigate your godson against his head of house - I call him by his first name because I want to show a minimum of respect to Harry's head! Sirius... ..."

The big dog and his Mr. Luna seemed to have a quarrel about the title of the Potions Professor. Harry buckled the mirror and chose the protection of magical creatures on the course selection list. It sounds like a weekly zoo class, nothing wrong of.

Now he has to choose two more, "What did you choose?"

"There's no Muggle studies, no nonsense divination, and the rest doesn't seem to be much choice for me." Pansy put up her list of subjects to show Harry, and she chose ancient runes and protection of magical creatures , Daphne, like Pansy, is just for company.

Blaise is similar, except that he chose an extra course of arithmetic and divination. "I am purely interested in mathematics and logic." Zabini admitted.

Harry was completely devastated, he didn't want to choose ancient runes at all, it sounds very difficult, but since Draco said he also chose ancient runes... then he should choose too!There is another one at the end, Harry really wants to choose divination, how mysterious it feels to predict the future!Although many people said that it was nonsense, but Draco said that there are really verified prophecies in this world, which is very amazing.

"Draco, what did you choose?"

"All."

The people around the table suddenly stopped talking and joking, and turned their eyes all over the place. They seemed to be quite horrified, but what was horrifying was not the huge load, but——

"Muggle studies as well?" Pansy asked.

"Yes, all." Draco smirked.

Their prince is mad, for sure!

But is Draco Malfoy that crazy?

No!

Therefore, Prince Slytherin must have some evil plan in mind, almost everyone is so sure!

Harry looked at his timetable and didn't have the courage to do the same as Draco, but he decided to choose the subject he was interested in, divination.

Once the major event of course selection is decided, the only major event for the rest of the semester is the ownership of the Quidditch Cup. It has been a long time since the castle has returned to its former hustle and bustle. The attacks that had happened, and the mandrakes in the school's greenhouse had entered their violent adolescence, and the dangers of the shadows seemed to be a thing of the past.

In Potions class, Draco and Harry worked carefully in front of the cauldron. Harry was carefully adding water to the cauldron with a beaker. Shaking, most of the glass of water fell into the crucible together with the beaker.

"Draco!"

Of course Draco felt it too, he put down the blender one step earlier and quickly took out the Marauder's Map from his bag, tapping silently with his wand——

It was still the little girl from the Weasley family, but this time Draco really watched her go in, but after she stayed in one place, she came out again quickly, as if it was just a matter of washing her hands, of course, that It's the girls' bathroom, isn't it?

Draco shook his head in confusion, "She came out again..."

"Ahem!" Harry suddenly started coughing loudly, contrived to the extreme, but it was indeed effective in allowing Draco to restore the Marauder's Map to a plain parchment in the potions book in time.

As soon as Draco finished playing, he looked up, and saw Professor Snape walking straight towards the two of them from the podium, standing beside them, with a tap of his wand, a beaker that had been boiled out of shape was poured out of the watery soup. Water floated out of the failure potion.

Sneers came from the Gryffindor test bench over there.

Professor Snape's dark eyes flicked from the beaker to the two of them, from the two of them to Draco's potions textbook, saw the parchment, and stayed for a moment.

"explain."

"Well... sorry, professor, I didn't hold the cup..."

"I'm sorry Professor, I suddenly wanted to record a few key points. I accidentally touched Harry when I was flipping through my schoolbag... We will redo it now!" Draco immediately left his seat and took materials from the medicine cabinet again.

Harry packed up the failed potions again and again, while peeking at the professor, Professor Snape never left the Marauder's Map, Harry was about to break out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, Goyle and Crabbe, the potion killer duo at the next table, saved Draco and them once in this class. Just when Professor Snape reached out to turn over the Marauder's Map, Goyle's pot The potion didn't know what went wrong and began to emit thick green smoke. Professor Snape turned around immediately, and sprayed the poison on the two Longbottom Slytherins.

Under the ridicule of Gryffindor and the gloomy stare of their headmaster who was obviously in a bad mood, Draco and Harry hurriedly started a new potion, and successfully handed in their homework before class was over. The color was very pure and clear, but Professor Snape still gave them both a 'Pass' instead of an 'Excellent', even a 'Good'!

"As a price for your distraction in class, thesis: Analysis of the difference in potion properties caused by changes in the concentration of potions, two feet!"

"Yes, Professor!"

"Yes, Dean!"

"Saturday, confinement. Mash the scarabs, preview!"

Saturday is the Quidditch Cup!The two little snakes looked at their dean pitifully.

Snape raised an eyebrow, "What's wrong?"

"No." The two little snakes were dejected.

"Punctual confinement."

"Yes, Professor!"

The two little snakes, who had received extra homework and were deprived of watching the game, swam out of the potion office in dismay. The only thing they were gratified was that although someone entered the girls' bathroom on the second floor, there was no attack.

For scarab mashing, Draco had a little trick in his mind, but he didn't say it out but let Harry check the book by himself, and then on Saturday morning, with the hustle and bustle outside, Draco and Harry obediently went to the potion The office is locked up.Professor Snape found out that both of them knew how to slap the scarab with a silver knife before putting it into a stone pestle to crush it. So, the professor turned around and went to the next lounge to read a book, relieved and satisfied.

The small half of the barrel of scarabs that the two of them were dealing with had been left and right all the time, and when they were messing mechanically and boringly, Draco suddenly felt a tremor in his heart. He suddenly looked up and found that Harry was also looking alert, obviously!

Draco took out the Marauder's Map from his pocket, and tapped silently with his wand.

"It's still Ginny Weasley!" Draco's complexion became a little bad, once or twice was called a coincidence, so the third reappearance had to be suspicious.Especially at this time, would Gryffindor students not watch the Gryffindor Quidditch match?

"Draco, we...we should go and see!"

Draco also had a bad premonition, no matter whether it was a false alarm or not, it was a bit abnormal, but he looked at the unfinished work in hand, damn it, it would be better if he finished it sooner!

"Otherwise, shall we ask the dean for leave?"

"reason?"

"Hmm..." Harry thought for a while, but couldn't find a suitable excuse, "Otherwise, we told the professor about our suspicions and speculations about the girls' bathroom on the second floor, and then confessed that we had fallen into sand, so we know someone is now Go in, need to check?"

"Blow yourself up." Draco lowered his voice, he knew Professor Snape better than any Slytherin, and he also knew the Weasleys, "Harry, the Weasleys are hardcore anti-Dark Lords People in their family, they are all ancient purebloods with genealogy, and their family members will definitely not have any blood relationship with the Dark Lord, and a girl who goes to an unmanned bathroom at this time may just want to find someone who is cheating on her. crying, or any other little girl's youth troubles, there are infinite possibilities, and the professor won't care."

"Then we can't really wait for the evidence, can we? Draco, that's a basilisk, a terrifying monster that can die at a glance. We can't guarantee that the next person will be just as lucky as being petrified. Salazar let us Take good care of this castle."

Draco rolled his eyes and looked at the ceiling, he was hesitating, he and Harry had a mess of secret affairs, the most dangerous thing was Harry's Parseltongue, especially after going through Salazar's handwriting and consulting so many books After that, he vaguely felt that this was not a simple sequelae of a spell.Well, if they can't stand by now, and they are in a dilemma anyway, then they must find a way with the least cost...

Harry had been staring at the map, and suddenly his back stiffened and his face changed drastically, "She's gone, Draco!"

"what?"

"She disappeared, Ginny Weasley, she was here just now...in the bathroom on the second floor, and then suddenly she disappeared on the map!"

When Draco saw the map, his face became serious. There was no Ginny Weasley's name in the front, back, left, and right corridors, including upstairs and downstairs.The Marauder's Map is a very powerful magical artifact. In Sirius' words, it is a masterpiece!But now, someone has disappeared on it, definitely not for no reason!

What cannot be marked on the Marauder's Map must be a very high-level magical space, just like the Room of Response. To some extent, this has already explained the problem.Holding the Marauder's Map, Draco knew that they could no longer hesitate, whether it was a false alarm or not, today's risk must be taken!

"Let's go find the professor!" Harry held Draco's hand firmly in support.

Draco took a deep breath, calmed down his irritability, stood by the door with the courage of a strong man and smiled wryly at Harry, "Surrender yourself and hand over the Marauder's Map, your godfather will definitely cry when he finds out, and my The godfather will skin us and cramp them, dry them and grind them into a cauldron... there is no doubt about it." After finishing speaking, he pulled Harry and opened the door and went out.

"Finished?" Professor Snape looked up from the book.

"Godfather, we...we must confess to you...well, to explain one thing."

"It's about the Chamber of Secrets," Harry added.

Professor Snape glanced at the two of them expressionlessly, and after a moment of silent pressure, he put down the book in his hand and rested his fingers on his chin, "Then, I assume you are not committing any foolish crimes." After reversing the mistake, you came here to ask for an amnesty for yourself because you were afraid that something would happen?"

Draco shook his head hurriedly, Professor Snape's voice was extremely soft, which meant that the professor was in a particularly dangerous emotional state!The hairs on Draco's back couldn't help standing up, and the green-eyed little black cat beside him had already rubbed against him. He didn't blame Harry for using himself as a shield, because the dean's expression was particularly scary now. It is almost foreseeable that after they finally have to pay off the confinement owed by the last semester, they probably signed the confinement for the next semester for themselves.

"Say!" Professor Snape looked stern, his face showed that he absolutely did not believe that they did not cause trouble!

Draco swallowed, and started talking about Harry's conjecture about the address of the Chamber of Secrets from the place where Mrs. Here comes the part.

"We...uh, we got a map from Sirius, Sirius Black, which can show the situation of the castle. We can find out who entered the abandoned girls' bathroom through the sand trace alarm and then check the map. Zongsha was touched a total of three times, including the one just now, and each time it was Ginny Weasley."

Under the professor's death light, Draco quickly presented the map with both hands, "I know this is not a reason for suspicion, but just now, Miss Weasley disappeared on the map."

Professor Snape held the Marauder's Map and his expression became more and more serious. It took a long time before he spoke, his voice was as soft as a whisper, "A... a map that can make you [invisible] under the teacher's nose?"

"We promise we haven't done anything with it!" Harry hurriedly explained.

"Oh, yes, you have an invisibility cloak." The professor's tone was light, but his eyes were sharp.

The little green-eyed snake was frozen back in an instant.

"Potter, Black—" Professor Snape said with a look of eating flies when he mentioned the names of those two people, "If one day you die in the gift of those two Gryffindor idiots, I don't care at all." Not surprising!" Professor Snape suddenly stood up, carrying two little snakes, strode out of the cellar.

Draco was on full alert, the wand slipped out of his sleeve and was in his hand, he had to prepare for the worst, if Ginny Weasley was the one who could unleash the basilisk, now go to the bathroom on the second floor It's definitely an act of courting death, especially if you are so unprepared.

"Professor Snape!" Draco jumped forward and hugged Professor Snape's arm, "No! Godfather, we can't just go like this. It's a basilisk. If you look directly at it, you will die."

Professor Snape's strides stopped abruptly, and he looked at his godson with slightly surprised black eyes, and then at the green-eyed bastard next to him who nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "Very good!" The professor narrowed his eyes , "I think you will have to explain the problem about the basilisk in front of the principal later."

Draco's face turned green. Didn't they go directly to the secret room?
