Chapter 90: Torn portrait

"Please let me pass." That was Percy's voice, and he walked out of the crowd with a daring look.
"Why are you stuck here? You guys don't always forget your password ... Sorry, I'm the chairman of the Boys Students' Union, please let me know."
The crowd calmed down, starting from the very front, so it was like a cold current, spreading out in the corridor all at once.
Immediately afterwards, they heard Percy's voice suddenly sharpen: "Who is going to invite Professor Dumbledore! Come on!"
People all turned back, and the last person stomped their feet.
"What happened?" Ginny probably stayed in the auditorium for a while, just now.
After a while, Professor Dumbledore arrived, and he hurried to the portrait of Fat Lady.
Gryffindor students were crowded together to let him pass, and Harry, Ron, and Hermione leaned closer to see where the trouble was.
哦 "Oh my gosh—" Hermione seemed to be seeing it, and exclaimed as she squeezed the sleeve.
The obese lady has disappeared from the portrait, the portrait has been maliciously damaged, canvas fragments have fallen everywhere on the floor, and a large canvas has been completely torn from the frame.
Dumbledore glanced quickly at the damaged painting.
"Professor McGonagall, please go to Filch right away and tell him to look for a fat lady on every painting in the castle-"
"You will be lucky!" A hoarse voice said suddenly.
That is a peeveer, who jumps over the head of the crowd, and looks very happy-he has always been like this when he saw the scene of destruction and sorrow.
"What do you mean, Pippi?" Dumbledore asked calmly.
Pippi's mocking smile faded a bit—he didn't dare to laugh at Dumbledore.
Therefore, he turned to a smooth tone, which sounded a little better than that hoarse voice.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Principal ... she didn't want to be seen, she got messed up. I saw the landscape painting she ran across the fifth floor, sir, she hid among the trees, crying and saying something 'horrible thing' '.' Pippi said in a happy tone.
"... Poor thing." He added at the end, but there was nothing to show pity for others.
"Did she say who did it?" Dumbledore asked calmly.
"Oh, yes, professor leader," said Pippi, "she won't let him in-he's very annoyed, you see." Pippi turned somersaults in the air, facing Dumbled from the middle of his own legs. Lido grinned.
"He has a bad temper, this Sirius Black."
Soon, Professor Dumbledore called all Gryffindor students back to the auditorium. Ten minutes later, the students of Hutchpark, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin also came. These students were all puzzled.
"Teachers and I will conduct a thorough search of the castle," Professor Dumbledore said aloud.
At this time, Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick closed all the doors of the auditorium.
"For your own safety, I think you may be spending the night here tonight. I asked the seniors to stand guard at the entrance of the auditorium, and the chairman of the boys 'and girls' student unions will stay in the auditorium to manage it."
"Report anything to me right away." Dumbledore added this to Percy.
After Percy heard it, she immediately changed her face to the pride of "I am an important person".
找 "Find a ghost and talk to me," Dumbledore added.
And when Dumbledore passed by Maca, he said softly, "Maca, come out with me."
带着 He took Maca about to leave the auditorium, but stopped as if thinking of something.
"Oh, yes, I think you will need—" Dumbledore waved his wand at will, and the long table flew to the side of the auditorium neatly; once again, the ground was covered. Hundreds of purple sleeping bags.
"Sleep well." Professor Dumbledore said, opened the door and walked out, and Maca followed closely and took the door.
Stuck outside the door, Dumbledore was standing by the side waiting for him.
教授 "Professor, is there anything wrong?" Marka asked.
"This time someone broke into the school and destroyed the portrait of the fat lady, which is dangerous for the students—" said Dumbledore. "I think you are familiar with the eight-eyed giant spiders in the woods. Can you search the forest for me? "
Maca listened for a moment. He sorted out his thoughts before answering: "Professor, you really know everything ... Of course, why not?"
"I don't know everything," Dumbledore narrowed his eyes at him. "I only know what I know ... Professor Hager will go with you."
Not to mention how shocked Hagrid was when he knew that Makar and Aragog were in love. It was only natural that everyone's search tonight was futile.
In Black's decisive style, after leaving Makka and Luna back, he left the secret path under the willow.
In this regard, Dumbledore did not feel any disappointment-he simply made sure that the intruder did not stay in the school, and ruled out the danger hidden in the school-this is the most important right now Things.
The next few days, everyone in the school was talking about Black.
的 The story about how he entered the castle is getting more and more mysterious-a student named Hannah Abbott at Hitchpitch School heard that Black could turn into a bush of flowering bushes!
I was in their next potion class, and she spent a lot of time telling it to everyone who was willing to listen to her.
The damaged portrait of the fat and fat lady had been taken off the wall, and it was replaced by the portrait of Sir Cadogan and his fat gray pony.
In fact, no one is happy about it.
Sir Cardogan spent half of his day challenging or asking people to fight him; the other half was devoting to ridiculously complex passwords, one day, He has to change his password at least twice.
"He's crazy," Seamus Finnegan said angrily to Percy, "Can't we change people?"
"No other painting is willing to do this errand," Percy said. "They were all frightened by what happened to the fat lady ... and Sir Cadogan was the only one to come forward."
However, Harry was not worried about Sir Cadogan.
Now he is under close surveillance--the teachers find excuses to walk with him in the hallway, and Percy Weasley follows him everywhere, like an extremely vigorous guard dog. Mostly Mrs. Weasley asked him Did it.
The most terrible thing was that Professor McGonagall called Harry into her office, and the uneasy look on his face made Harry think that it must be someone who had lost his life.
"There is no need to hide you any more, Potter," she said solemnly, "I know this will shock you, but Black-"
"I know he's chasing me," Harry said wearily, "I heard Ron's dad told his mom. Mr. Weasley works in the Ministry of Magic."
McGonagall seemed very surprised. She stared at Harry and said after a while: "I see! Okay! Well, Potter ... then you understand why I don't think it's good for you to practice Quidditch in the evening. Idea, right? On the court, there are only your teammates around, you are very exposed, Potter— "
"We are going to play our first game on Saturday!" Harry was furious, but he had to keep calm, "I must train, professor!"
Professor McGonagall looked at him indefinitely.
知道 Harry knows that she is extremely concerned about the future of Gryffindor's team. After all, she first suggested that Harry be a golfer.
He waited, holding his breath nervously.
"唔 ..." Professor McGonagall stood up and stared at the Quidditch Stadium outside the window, the stadium faintly visible in the rain.
"Okay ... God knows, I would like to see our team finally win the trophy ... But anyway, Potter, if there is a teacher present, I will be more happy-I will ask Mrs. Huo Qi to supervise Your training. "
The first Quidditch game is approaching, but the weather is getting worse.
格兰 Under the supervision of Mrs. Huoqi, the Gryffindor team bravely trained and they worked harder than before.
Then, at the last training session before Saturday ’s game, Captain Wood gave his team a bad news.
"We don't compare with Slytherin!" He told them angrily, "Flint came to see me just now-we are going to compare with Hitchpatch ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Why?" Others The team members asked in unison.
"Flint's excuse is that their golfer's injured arm is not good yet!" Wood said, biting his teeth angrily. "But the purpose of their doing so was obvious. They just didn't want to play in such weather. They thought This will ruin their chances— "
This day, all day, there was a gust of wind and rain, and while Wood was talking, they heard thunder in the distance.
"Malford's arms are okay!" Harry said angrily. "He's pretending to be!"
"I understand, but we can't prove it," Wood said painfully. "We have been practicing with Slytherin as the target, and now we are playing with the Hitchpatch team. Their style is quite different The same. They have a new captain and finder Cedric Diggory— "
Angelina, Eliya and Katie suddenly smirked.
"What's wrong?" Wood asked-he was annoyed by this carefree behavior.
"He's the tall, beautiful boy?" Angelina said.
"The strong one who speaks less!" Katie followed.
After talking, they started to smirk again.
"Smile!" Wood shouted suddenly. "There is worse news here. Would you like to hear it?"
"What else can make this worse?" Harry groaned.
当然 "Of course!" Wood just shouted, and then gave a frustrated expression again, "McLean is going to play, do you think this is bad?"
Suddenly, all three girls put away the smirk still hanging on their faces, and Qi Qi changed her face into an incredible expression.
哦 "Oh no--" they all said in unison.
