Chapter 40: Deputy Principal's Office


  Navi Longbottom has the lightest thing in his hands, and he is also at the forefront of the team.
   I only saw him knock on the door lightly, and soon Professor Rozier’s slightly indifferent voice sounded in the room:
   "Please come in!"
  Nawei opened the door, and then the three of them walked into the vice-principal's office carrying a lot of housekeeping supplies.
   "Professor Rozier." Neville looked a little nervous, and his voice stammered: "Mr. Pringle sent us...come...to clean your office."
   Professor Vita Rozier was sitting behind her desk, and she raised her head: "Okay, say it when you need my cooperation."
   After speaking, she lowered her head again, seeming to continue to review the students' after-school essays.
  Navi looked visibly relieved.
   Professor Rozier's aura is indeed strong enough, just one glance at them made them unable to breathe.
   Even Matthew felt so.
Harry Evans on the side of    was even more scared and pale.
  ……
  Professor Rozier’s office looks quite concise.
  All the furniture includes only: a bookshelf full of books, a cupboard that I don’t know what’s in it, and the desks and chairs where she is currently working.
   There is nothing else.
   Such a room is the easiest to clean up.
   It seems that their luck is much better than those of Crabbe and Gore.
   The cleaning work has begun.
   Matthew and they did a simple division of labor. Neville was responsible for sweeping the dust off the ground with a broom, Evans was responsible for cleaning the windows, and Matthew took a rag and started to wipe the bookshelf.
  On the way, they should act as lightly as possible so as not to disturb Professor Rozier.
  The books that can be placed on Professor Rozier's shelf are naturally not ordinary books.
   Matthew glanced at the covers of the outermost books while wiping the dust on the bookshelf.
  He saw a copy of "The Secret of Cutting-edge Black Magic", and a copy of "The Top Transfiguration Guide"...
   If it wasn't for Professor Rozier who was behind him, Matthew might have to turn it over and take a look.
   Of course now, he only dared to concentrate on cleaning...
   While washing the rags, Matthew quietly glanced at Professor Rozier.
   She seems to have made a cup of black tea, and while correcting the paper, she sips from time to time.
   Professor Rozier suddenly raised his head again, scared Matthew quickly averted his eyes.
   The bookshelf is finished, now it's the cabinet's turn.
   In the crevices of the cabinet, a strange smell can be faintly smelled, some familiar smell, but I can't remember where I smelled it.
   Time passed by every minute.
  Naville has already used a broom to sweep the room meticulously, Evans has also polished the windows, and Matthew has also completed his task.
   Now it’s the turn to mop the floor
   Matthew picked up the mop and began to drag the house from the inside to the outside.
  Nawei put a few dirty rags into the basin, and then walked to the bathroom with the basin.
   Evans was about to help Matthew, but was stopped by Professor Rozier.
   "Mr. Evans!" She pointed to the thick pile of waste paper on the table: "Take them to Mr. Pringle, please."
   "Okay...Okay..." Harry Evans stammered, and then picked up the waste paper that was more than a foot high with some effort.
   Then he also walked out of Professor Rozier's office.
   Now, there are only two people left in the room, Professor Matthew and Rozier.
   Matthew felt the quiet atmosphere while dragging the ground, a little bit oozing.
  ……
   Soon, Matthew took the mop and came to Professor Rozier.
   "Professor Rozier." He asked softly: "Can you give me a little bit!"
   Professor Rozier did not reply, but just stood up abruptly, and then she looked up and down Matthew.
   When she looked at Matthew, Matthew only felt that she was shaking all over and her hands and feet were cold.
   Fortunately, this gaze didn't last long, and Professor Rozier left her position and walked out of the office.
   Matthew couldn’t believe what he saw--
  Professor Rozier left in a careless manner, plus Neville and Evans who had left here before, and now only himself is left in the entire office.
   He turned his eyes to where the bookshelf was.
   But soon, he dismissed his thoughts... Maybe Professor Rozier was just going to the bathroom. If he rushed to touch her things now, he might be caught upright later.
   He did not forget Mr. Pringle’s warning.
   Matthew removed Professor Rozier's bench, ready to start mopping the floor.
   But his movements stopped for an instant.
   Because in front of him, he suddenly saw a small drop of blood-like liquid.
   Very bright bright red, it looks slightly hideous.
   And according to the location of this drop of liquid... It is very likely that Professor Rozier accidentally dripped while drinking something while sitting on the bench.
   Then, that is to say—
   Matthew turned his eyes to the tea cup on the table again.
  The teacup is tightly covered by the lid~EbookFREE.me~ I can't see any information inside.
   But at the edge of the cup, a few traces of bright red can be seen.
   Do you want to... Open the tea cup and see what is inside?
   Matthew hesitated for a moment...
   However, in his mind, Mr. Pringle’s warning sounded again at this time:
   "Also, Professor Rozier doesn't like other people disturbing her things, don't blame me for not warning you!"
   Without hesitation, he lowered his head and waved the mop, dragging away all the traces in front of him.
   All this happened in an instant.
  Like Matthew Wickfield, seeing nothing.
  ……
   just after Matthew had just dragged the floor of the entire room.
  Navi Longbottom came back with a basin in his hand and a few rags.
   "Everything should be done." Matthew said softly.
   "Okay, thank you very much, Matthew." Neville said quickly.
   "You have worked hard too."
   As they spoke, Harry Evans also returned.
   This thin boy looked out of breath at this time. He was almost exhausted by carrying such a heavy object.
  It's just that Professor Rozier still didn't come back.
   The faces of the boys were a little embarrassed. According to common sense, they should be able to pack up the housekeeping supplies and return to Mr. Pringle.
   But they hesitated again, whether they should tell Professor Rozier separately.
  ……
   At this moment, there was a violent bark in the corridor downstairs.
   is the voice of Mr. Tang.
   The golden retriever seemed to suddenly become very manic!
