[HP] Squib Prince

After Brian told Snape his thoughts frankly, he only felt a big sigh of relief, and he was even more motivated to do things afterwards.He also worked harder, after all, he didn't want to see Merlin early in the foreseeable war.For Brian, once he set the goal, he had to accomplish it no matter what.And Snape, as a major goal in his life, should be the top priority no matter what.

Brian pushed away the potion book in front of him and rubbed his tired eyes.He's been learning about potions on a deeper level lately.He is like a sponge, frantically absorbing all kinds of fresh knowledge.Maybe it's because his IQ is high enough, maybe it's because of his adult mentality, in short, his learning speed is so fast that even Mr. Duke, who has always been strict, can't find anything wrong with it.Of course, Brian also understands that his creativity in potions cannot be at the same level as Snape, the youngest potion master in history, and he is not too demanding on this point. , anyway, his real interest is not in it.Instead, Mr. Duke's indifferent attitude surprised him a little.But Mr. Duke's reason does make sense.

"Everyone's talent is different. Just like Severus, it is difficult for the entire Prince family to have more than three talents in this area. As the head of the family, you have such a talent that belongs to your own family. The same generation is enough. What you need to do is to keep this family."

Brian stared at the warm yellow light in a daze, then held his chin and continued to open the book in his hand.Mr. Duke is right, as long as he can understand these things, he will not be deceived by some people with ulterior motives. As for the things on the deeper level of potions, Snape is there for everything, and he feels very at ease.He believes that he can be qualified for this position.

Just when he opened the book and didn't read two pages, he only felt his eyelids twitch suddenly, and then he held the pen used to record his experience because it fell on a dozen parchment paper, making the clean paper The face was stained with ink.Brian pursed his lips and threw the scrapped parchment into the wastebasket. He felt a little uncomfortable.

He put the pen in his hand into the cap, then stood up, walking back and forth a little restlessly, since the first twitch of his eyelids just now, his eyelids have been beating non-stop, and now, even the beating of his heart Started to become irregular.

After thinking about it, he took his cloak and decided to go to Snape's office.

Just as he was leaving, Dumbledore's voice rang from every corner of Hogwarts.

"From now on, all students return to the lounge. The prefects of each college are responsible for counting the number of students. If you find students who are not there, tell your dean. They will wait for you in the lounge. All teachers come to my office .”

Bryan heard Dumbledore say the message several times in a serious voice he had never heard before, and he stopped after making sure everyone heard it.

It seems that something serious happened in the school, which made Dumbledore react like this.Without hesitation, Brian changed direction and walked quickly to Dumbledore's office.As for Snape, he should be in the Slytherin lounge, and when they finished making arrangements, he would definitely see him in the headmaster's office.

When Brian got to the principal's office, he was surprised to find that many teachers were already there.

Dumbledore stood in the middle, his face was very serious, and he felt very tense.It was the first time Brian had seen him in such a state of facing an enemy.

Seeing Brian come in, Dumbledore nodded to him, then looked around again, seeing that it was almost time for someone to come, and then spoke.

"Minerva and the others already know what happened. Now, I regret to tell you one thing." Dumbledore frowned, obviously, the matter was very difficult, "Someone released the basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets. "

As soon as Dumbledore finished speaking, all the teachers began to look at each other in surprise. After confirming that Dumbledore was not lying, they looked at each other in blank dismay, as if a drop of water had dropped into a hot oil pan, and they were not calm at all. down.Everyone started talking in panicked whispers.And Professor Trelawney, the divination teacher who has always been naughty, had an expression on her clothes that was about to faint. She tightly grabbed the hem of her clothes with her thin hands, and then said desperately: "I will say, I will Say, I have a hunch that this will be the beginning, the beginning of a dark fall..."

It's just that no one is in the mood to talk to her anymore, and it's hard for everyone to accept this sudden news.Only Brian, who grew up in the Muggle world, is still calm.Although he knew that Hogwarts had always had a legend that the founder Slytherin left a basilisk in his chamber of secrets, he always thought it was just a legend...

"How can you be sure it's a basilisk?" Brian looked at Dumbledore puzzled.

Dumbledore looked a little better after hearing Brian's question.At least now, the principal's office is not as noisy as before.After listening to Bryan's question, everyone could not help but wait for Dumbledore to say that this was actually unconfirmed news with some fluke mentality.

But soon, Dumbledore's words disappointed all those lucky people.

"Argus's cat died, and Professor Binns beside it was petrified." After speaking, Dumbledore took off a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, pinched the bridge of his nose with two fingers of his right hand, Looking very tired.

Brian opened his mouth, and then, not knowing what to say, he closed it again.

No wonder I didn't see Professor Binns just now.He is very interested in this only ghost professor, and sometimes he will chat with him. Although the other party is a bit old-fashioned and the class is a bit boring, but some insights into history are still very sharp, which makes Brian very admire.Brian always felt that asking him to teach these little kids at Hogwarts who didn't understand anything was overkill, and the other party's language skills were really not suitable for being a teacher.It's ironic that an old ghost who doesn't believe in basilisks at all gets himself petrified by a basilisk.Brian was a little emotional.

As for the "Argus" in Dumbledore's mouth, I have to say that as a person who is hated by all Hogwarts students like Snape, I really don't know what to say.No, in fact, it should be said that he is an existence beyond Snape. At least the students in the entire Slytherin house are afraid of their dean, but they still respect him from the bottom of their hearts. As a Squib administrator, Filch Not so lucky.Although at the beginning, because everyone was a squib, the other party's attitude towards Brian was quite friendly, but since he discovered that Brian has magical powers, the other party has tried his best to avoid meeting with Brian. I don't know if it is because of jealousy or something. In short, Brian didn't see him much after that.Speaking of which, the only one who has been with him all the time should be his Mrs. Norris.Even the cat is dead now, Brian pursed his lips, feeling a little pitiful for this person.

"The eyes of the basilisk can kill people directly, but seeing indirectly can turn people into petrification." Dumbledore put on his glasses again, and instantly returned to his usual tall and reliable appearance, "Bins has died once. , so it was impossible to die again, so he was petrified. He and Mrs. Norris have confirmed this."

Dumbledore looked at everyone, and said, "This matter must be resolved as soon as possible. We need to find the basilisk, and then find a way to move it out of Hogwarts, or kill it."

Dumbledore's proposal made most of the teachers present agree, but where to enter the secret room, how to kill the basilisk, and who will operate it all need to be considered.

Brian was about to ask these questions when the door to the principal's office was opened again, and Professor McGonagall came in, followed by Snape.Judging from the expressions of the two of them, it seemed that something not optimistic had happened.

Professor McGonagall looked around at the professors, and said in a serious tone: "Little Mr. Weasley is gone."

Everyone who had already calmed down suddenly became nervous because of this sentence. Even Brian was stunned for a moment, and then realized that they should be talking about "Charlie Weasley", which he has always liked.When he realized this, Brian became the same as the teachers around him, and even more worried.He couldn't help turning his head to look at Snape. The other party obviously knew about this before coming, and his face was very ugly.

"It's still not certain that it has something to do with the basilisk, maybe he's hiding somewhere in the school." Snape calmly reminded, "Ha, Gryffindor who likes to explore, I think we need to have a good talk with Weasley Let's chat, sir."

Because Charlie is her student, Professor McGonagall's face became even more ugly because of Snape's words. On the one hand, she sincerely hoped that Charlie didn't hear Dumbledore's notification somewhere, although the possibility of this was slim, On the other hand, she was very angry at such a disobedient student.

"Arrange two teachers to patrol the area where the students are active, and others to look for Charlie. If I can't find it, I think I have to notify the Arthurs." Dumbledore's face became more serious, he obviously did not expect Things can get so complicated.Moreover, little Harry's illness has not yet been found out, and this kind of thing happened again at Hogwarts, and there is absolutely no chance for people to breathe.It is difficult to hide such a situation. I don't know how the Ministry of Magic and ordinary people will react if it spreads out.
