[HP] Being a problem student at Hogwarts

Since the principal was not here, Hagrid walked around the principal's office like a trapped animal. The dead chicken in his hand was still bleeding, and the bloody footprints made the floor of the principal's office look like a murder scene. On the photo wall, several Slytherin principals were clutching their chests and looking like they were about to faint.

Tom suggested: "Hagrid, why don't you go take care of Harry first?"

Hagrid thought for a while, nodded, and said, "Okay, stew the chicken while it's fresh and give it to Harry to try." He carried the dead chicken and ran down the stairs with a bang.

Ron looked at the dirty floor and had a headache, and asked, "Does any of you know where the mop is in the principal's office?"

Hermione rolled her eyes and said, "Ron, you are a wizard!" She pulled out her wand and easily cleaned up the blood on the floor.

"Are we waiting for the principal to come back? Or come back tomorrow?" Tom asked.

"It's already here, just wait." Ron said hesitantly.

After waiting for a long time, Ron fell asleep on the sofa with his head raised, his mouth half open, and drool dripping from the corner of his mouth. Hermione dug out her homework from her ever-present satchel and started writing furiously.

There was a bookshelf in the principal's office, but without permission, Tom couldn't browse it by himself, so he borrowed textbooks from Hermione and looked through them, thinking it was just for review.

When Tom asked not to go back again, Hermione suddenly hissed and said, "Listen!"

Footsteps and voices came from outside the door again. After a while, the door of the principal's office was pushed open. The children got up to look and saw Principal Dumbledore walking in, followed by Hagrid who looked mixed with joy and anger. There was also a living creature in his hand that was twisting and struggling.

"Ah, you are here," said Headmaster Dumbledore kindly.

The thing Hagrid was carrying kept making a piercing scream that woke Ron up.

"What's wrong!" He opened his eyes in panic and reached out to grab Hermione, asking her to hide behind him.

"It's okay, it's Principal Dumbledore and Hagrid." Hermione patted his hand gently and said.

"This is -" Tom looked at it for a while and then identified: "A house elf?"

It is really difficult to recognize a little monster that is upside down, twisting and screaming, and has a bruised nose and face.

"That's it." Hagrid raised it a little higher, and the house elf curled up and bit Hagrid hard. Hagrid felt nothing and continued: "I'm going to bring Harry soup. I happened to see it talking to Harry - OK, that's it! It attacked Harry with a Bludger and blew up the stands - so I caught him!"

Hagrid was very proud of this and said in a rough voice: "It's still trying to run away! I knocked it down with one punch and held it firmly." He picked up the elf and gave it to the children, and told them to look at it. Just look, don't get close.

"It bites people very hard," Hagrid said. "They are very good at running away, so I can only keep holding on to it."

"But how could a house elf-" Hermione was shocked by this.

"How did it get around the ban?" Ron asked, "Did its owner think of a loophole?"

"Then who will be its owner?" asked Tom.

Dumbledore sat on his chair, slapped his waist with his backhand, and said, "This is what we want to know too."

He signaled Hagrid to put down the captured elf.

"Hello," Dumbledore said to it, "What's your name?"

The elf stood cowering and finally stopped screaming. It was covered in a dirty pillowcase, with only a few holes cut out for its arms and legs.

"...Dobby, Dobby the house elf." It said softly, "Dobby knows that you... Albus Dumbledore is the greatest headmaster since the founding of Hogwarts. Dobby Than when I heard that Dumbledore's magic power could rival that of the most powerful devil who must not even be named——"

"Thank you for your praise." Dumbledore said, "Perhaps you would like to tell us whose elf you are? Why did you hurt Harry?" 7K妏婩

"Dobby can't betray his master..." Dobby lowered his voice and suddenly trembled all over, "Dobby didn't mean to hurt Harry!"

"Ha," said Ron.

"Dobby wants to protect Harry Potter!" the little monster screamed excitedly, "Harry Potter can't stay in Hogwarts! Harry Potter must stay in a safe place!"

"Is this why you put Harry in an unsafe situation - to protect Harry's safety?" Tom found this logic simply ridiculous. "Would you rather try to knock him out of the sky with a Bludger? Would you rather blow up the stands and almost kill him? And hurt other innocent students by the way?"

"It's definitely not to crush him to death!" Dobby said in horror, "Dobby is trying to save Harry Potter's life! It's better to be seriously injured than to stay here, sir. Dobby only wants Harry Potter. A little bruised and then sent home.”

"I didn't see that you just wanted Harry to be 'slightly injured'," Hermione said angrily, "Harry narrowly escaped death!"

Dobby looked at her incomprehensively and said sharply: "Harry Potter, a kind and great wizard, would not die because of such a trivial matter, miss."

Tom:? ? ? It turns out that the other party hasn't grasped the rightness to take action yet, and they just blindly believe in Harry's luck?

Ron lowered his voice thoughtfully and asked Dumbledore: "So house elves can hurt wizards when they are thinking of protecting?" He was very frightened by this, "But with their neurotic nature, it is easy for them to do so." Being used."

Dumbledore showed a wry smile, made a "shhh" gesture, and said, "So we must not leak this secret." He high-fived Ron in a serious manner and made an agreement, and Ron excitedly grabbed the Made a promise with Dumbledore.

"I won't tell anyone. Even if I talk in my sleep," Ron promised.

"Okay, Dobby." Dumbledore raised his voice, "I think we all understand. You caused trouble in today's game purely out of the desire to protect Harry."

"So, what makes you think Harry would be in danger staying at Hogwarts?" he asked.

Dobby shook his big ears anxiously and said: "There is a conspiracy... Dobby has known about it for several months. Dobby has been thinking of ways to do this. During the previous summer vacation, Dobby thought if he felt that his friends Everyone has forgotten about him, maybe he won't want to return to Hogwarts, but-" The little monster suddenly covered his mouth.

"So it was you!" Hermione exclaimed. "It was you who intercepted our letters during the holidays!"

Dobby was even more excited than she was, and his voice was even shriller: "Dobby is trying to protect Harry Potter!"

"Okay, calm down, ladies and gentlemen." Dumbledore raised his hand again and made a downward stop gesture, "Let's get back to the topic as soon as possible - Dobby, what dangers are there in Hogwarts?"

"Something terrible is about to happen!" Dobby said, "Maybe it has already happened. Harry Potter can't stay here, because history is about to repeat itself, and the Chamber of Secrets will be opened again -"

Dobby was stunned.

It twisted its fingers in horror and screamed, slamming into the wall: "Bad Dobby! Bad Dobby!"

But there was something louder than its cry - Hagrid roared like a violent, injured beast, lunged forward, grabbed Dobby's ankles and shouted ferociously: "Say - clear ——Chu!”

"Hagrid!" Dumbledore stood up.

"It said the Chamber of Secrets!" Hagrid shouted like a trapped animal, "It knows the Chamber of Secrets!"

The half-giant stared at Dumbledore with splitting eyes, and the force unconsciously exerted on his hands made Dobby, who was addicted to self-punishment, couldn't help but scream.

"Put it down," said Dumbledore, looking at Hagrid unflinchingly.

Hagrid took a few heavy breaths and slowly lowered Dobby down.

"You know I'm innocent," Hagrid said vaguely, "I'm innocent!"

"Yes, I know," Dumbledore said. "If you want everyone to know, you have to calm down and let the elf tell what it knows."

Hagrid took a deep breath and stared at Dobby.

"I'm sorry, Dobby, I apologize to you on behalf of Hagrid." Dumbledore said, "If you knew the truth of the original history, you might understand Hagrid's excitement at this moment."

Dobby looked at him blankly, and suddenly burst into tears: "Apologise!" the elf whimpered, "Never...never...a wizard has never treated people like equals..."

Dumbledore patiently waited for it to cry for a while, and glanced at Hagrid lightly every time he couldn't help but speak, so Hagrid shut his mouth in disgust.

"Dobby has long heard of your greatness, sir. But Dobby has never experienced your kindness before..." Dobby's two big round eyes sparkled, "Dobby is happy to serve you, sir."

"Thank you." Dumbledore said politely, "I believe you are an elf with a good heart, otherwise you wouldn't take risks for Harry's safety - I'm afraid your actions are all your fault. Your personal wishes have not been approved by your master, right?"

"Oh, they don't know." Dobby trembled. "In order to protect Harry Potter, Dobby wanted to punish himself the most severely. Dobby shut his ears in the oven door -"

Hermione couldn't bear to turn her face away.

"What if they know..." Dobby trembled even more, but gritted his teeth and said, "Dobby is willing to pay any price to protect Harry Potter!"
