The Days of Sneaking at Hogwarts

Chapter 47 The Attacking Boggart

Draco wrote a letter to his mother, and then received a reply. Narcissa said in the letter that there was nothing she could do. It was proposed by Lucius, and it would be too embarrassing for Lucius to withdraw it.

Buckbeak's execution was unavoidable, Draco sighed after seeing his mother's reply letter, thinking about how to tell Arnold this sad news.

At this time, Arno was sitting cross-legged in front of Buckbeak, watching it quietly, while Buckbeak was enjoying his food quietly.Arnold remembered some Chinese novels that Yi Yi had told him before, in which there would often be some plots of robbing prisons. If Draco and Lucius failed to discuss, then when Buckbeak was about to be executed, he would Buckbeak was robbed. This scene is very exciting to think about.

"What are you thinking?" Newt's voice came from behind Arnold. He walked to Arnold's side, sat down on the ground with Arnold, looked up at Buckbeak, "Look at Buckbeak like this, Much taller than usual."

"Mr. Scamander, have you also heard about Buckbeak?" Arnold looked at Newt who was sitting aside.Newt picked up a piece of ferret meat and threw it to Buckbeak, "That's why I'm here at Hogwarts, but it doesn't seem to work for me, maybe because I'm often not good at expressing myself , leading to some problems between negotiations with the Ministry of Magic, my wife often blames me for this, I have a lot of words that my sister-in-law helped me out, oh, uh, um, she is a A born dementor."

"A natural dementor? It sounds so cool. Is it mind reading in the general sense? Can this be acquired?"

"Uh, it's probably okay. If you are good at using the spell of Dementia, it should be similar in essence. Demention is indeed very good. If I can read Mr. Malfoy's heart, then I can Know how to let him let Buckbeak go." Newt felt that mastering the mind-taking is very important at this moment, "Speaking of which, Arnold, don't you have class today?"

"Class?" A Nuo was stunned for a few seconds, feeling that he should have no class, but it is not likely that there should be no class. In principle, there should be class, "It seems that there is, what kind of class is it?" "Defense Against the Dark Arts, Merlin's beard, I'm already late, I'm leaving, goodbye, Mr Scamander."

Newt looked at the back of Arnold who was running all the way, and slowly waved his hand, "Perhaps, I should have asked this question earlier."

With a "bang", Arnold pushed open the door of the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, half squatting, panting from exhaustion, "Yes, I'm sorry, Professor, I, I'm late."

Remus Lupine was the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor in Arnold's third year. He was kind and although he had some scars on his face, he never made people feel scared.

Lupine looked at Arnold who just ran in, smiled slightly, and motioned for Arnold to come in, "It's okay, come in quickly, we just started class, you didn't miss it."

Draco looked at Arnold, wanting to ask where Arnold was just now, but Gryffindor was sandwiched between Slytherin's position and Hufflepuff's position, and the Gryffindor lions It was a little noisy and moving around, Draco could only curse inwardly, damn Gryffindor.

Arnold managed to stabilize his breathing, but was taken aback by Hermione's sudden appearance. Hermione looked at a big cabinet at the front of the classroom, "What's in there?"

"Hermione? Why are you late too?" Arnold looked at Hermione who suddenly appeared, feeling a little dazed. She clearly remembered that Hermione wasn't here just now.When Ron heard what Anuo said, he turned around, "Arnold, what are you talking about? What Hermione? She's obviously gone today... Hermione? When were you here?"

Hermione looked at Ron and Arnold with some incomprehension, "What's the matter with you two today? I've been here all the time, okay? Well, this is class, listen to the lecture."

Lupine is showing everyone a big cabinet, which seems to contain something, "Is this very interesting? Can any student guess what's inside?"

"A Boggart, sir." Jesmine quickly answered Lupine's question. She aspired to be the student who gave Hufflepuff the most points this semester when the semester just started. What is said is to get the attention of Senior Cedric.

"Very good, five points for Hufflepuff." Lupine lived up to Jesmine's expectations and added points for Hufflepuff. "So, can anyone tell me what a Boggart looks like?"

"No one knows. Boggarts can transform, and they will transform into whatever the people who see them are most afraid of. That's why they are so terrifying." Jesmine gave another quick, neat and accurate answer.

Ron looked at Jasmine who was so active, and moved closer to A Nuo, "Why is she crazy?" A Nuo sighed, "Leave her alone, she's crazy."

Lupine was very satisfied with Jasmine's answer, "Yes, that's right, fortunately, there is a simple spell that can repel Boggarts, now, let's start practicing, don't worry, let's not use the wand first, just follow me , riddikulus (funny funny)."

"riddikulus." To be honest, without using a wand, Arnaud felt for a moment that he was in an English class, learning new words from behind the teacher.

"Very well, let's simply practice here. You must know that spells alone are not enough. What can really break a Boggart is laughter. Let it become an image that you think is ridiculous. Okay, now, I To explain, er, Neville, it's up to you, you do it."

Neville, who was hiding behind the crowd, became a little helpless and panicked when everyone looked at him. He hesitated in his footsteps, not knowing whether he should step forward, and complained softly, "Why do you always I?"

Thinking back to Neville over the years, he has always been unlucky. He has become the most bullied target as soon as he enters school. During class, even if he sits in a corner, the professors are always the first to call his name. Even in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the second year, the elf released by the vain Professor Lockhart was able to grab him in the first place and hang him on the chandelier.

Lupine waved to Neville, "Come on, don't be shy, come on, kid."

Neville stepped forward slowly and stiffly, looking at Lupine timidly.

Lupine smiled lovingly at Neville, "Neville, what are you most afraid of?"

"Sh, Snape, Professor Snape." It was obvious that Neville was a little scared just by saying Snape's name.

Neville's answer elicited roars of laughter, and the expression on every student's face was "I understand". Indeed, Professor Snape is scary.

Arno couldn't help nodding, agreeing with Neville's point of view, sometimes the content of her nightmares was that Snape forced her to write a dissertation for Potions class, and it was the kind of paper she wrote word by word. Some scared.

Lupine also smiled and nodded, "Yes, he is quite scary, it seems that everyone is quite afraid of him. By the way, Neville, you live with your grandma, don't you?" "

Neville nodded, and a trace of tension appeared on his face again, "Yes, but I don't really want the Boggart to become her, even though I'm quite afraid of her."

"No no no, I just want you to think about what your grandma usually wears, just think about what she wears, think clearly, very clearly. Well, when I open the cupboard door, I need you to do this." Lupine Walking up to Neville, whispered in his ear, "Imagine Professor Snape in your grandma's clothes."

Neville looked at Lupine in disbelief, and Lupine had a different smile on his face, like the smile after a successful prank, "Can it be done?"

Although he couldn't hear what Lupine and Neville said, but from the smile on Lupine's face, Arnold felt that there should be a good show to watch next. Said it was when the two of them thought of some outrageous prank.

"Okay, get your wands ready, one, two, three." Lupine opened the cabinet door.

The Boggart in Snape's form slowly walked out of the closet. Lupine suppressed a smile behind Neville and encouraged Neville, "Come on, Neville, come on."

"Riddikulus." With Neville's incantation, the Boggart turned into Snape wearing an old lady's dress, a hat with a bird on his head, and even stockings, stepping on a small High heel.

"Pfft ha ha ha ha ha ha ha." Except for the Slytherin students, the other houses laughed happily, especially the little lions of Gryffindor.Arnold wanted to capture this moment so that she would have an exclusive Snape photoshoot, which is fun to think about.

"Okay, okay, next, let's line up, one by one." Lupine locked the Boggart into the cabinet again, and directed everyone to line up. Everyone was looking forward to and afraid, and wanted to see what they were afraid of. Things became funny, and they didn't dare to face them, so everyone was more modest, except A Nuo, who froze in place because she was so busy laughing.

"Very good, Arno, come on." Lupine pulled Arnold to the first place.

"Ah, uh, no, I'm not ready." A Nuo was a little caught off guard. Speaking of it, she didn't seem to know what she was really afraid of.

Lupine patted Arnold, "It's okay, believe in yourself, you can do it, open it."

Anuo swallowed, clenched the wand in his hand, felt a little nervous, the cabinet door was slowly opened, the inside of the cabinet was pitch black, and gradually some black mist came out, and the black mist gradually drifted to Ah Nuo At Nuo's feet, A Nuo looked at the black mist, and felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart. A Nuo felt a little out of breath, and she kept adjusting her breathing. A Nuo looked up at the cabinet, and there were still There was a steady stream of black mist coming out of it, and there seemed to be something inside the cabinet, not just the black mist.

Arnold only felt her breathing getting heavier and her hands were getting weaker and weaker. She didn't know how to face this situation, "riddikulus." Arnold said the funny spell regardless, she still didn't know at this moment She was afraid of something, but her rationality told her that she should recite the spell in time at this moment.

The spell worked, the black mist disappeared, and Arnold felt a little more relaxed. The Boggart appeared as Ron struggling in the portable swamp, and laughed again. Ron looked at Arnold with some resentment , "You have to make life difficult for me, don't you?"

Arnold couldn't help laughing, "I'm sorry, Ron." Then, he took another look at Ron struggling in the swamp, "It's so funny, you can make me laugh for a year. I also want to change to Professor Snape, but I'm afraid he will make me look funny next time in Potions class." After finishing speaking, he glanced again, "I understand why Fred and George are so I like to fix you."

Ron was connected behind Arnold. After admiring the way he was struggling in the swamp, Ron was very upset. Of course, this discomfort only lasted for a second, because in the next second, a black man appeared in front of Ron. It was a giant spider. Ron's face changed from red because he was laughed at by everyone to white with fright. He closed his eyes and dared not look at it. He hurriedly raised the wand in his hand, "riddikulus. "A giant spider wearing roller skates appeared. The spider couldn't get up because of the roller skates. Seeing this scene, Ron was obviously relieved.

Next, it was Harry.Boggart appeared in the form of a dementor. In an instant, the temperature in the classroom dropped several degrees, and everything seemed to lose its color. Harry froze in place, at a loss. Immediately stepped forward, blocked in front of Harry, the Boggart turned into a silver-white ball hanging in the air, Lupine lazily said a funny spell, put the Boggart into the cabinet, and then , patted Harry who was still in a daze, and told him everything was fine.

"Okay, sorry, that's all for today, let's continue next time." Ever since, amidst the complaints of those who have never experienced Boggarts, this class has come to an end.

"Arnold, what is your Boggart form?" Draco stood at the end of the class, and he didn't see Arnold's Boggart form very clearly. Logically speaking, it should be nothing, but Arnold After dealing with the Boggart, his complexion didn't look good, which made him a little worried.

"It's nothing, it's just a cloud of black mist, I don't know what it is, anyway, it's not important." Arnold waved his hand, pretending to be relaxed, "Speaking of it, what are you most afraid of, Draco? ah?"

"Uh." Draco didn't know how to answer. Speaking of which, he was afraid of a lot of things. He guessed that only Boggart knew what he was most afraid of. "It doesn't matter. I'm hungry. We Let's go eat." After speaking, Draco pulled Arnold towards the auditorium.

"Uh, Draco." Arnold looked at Draco's right arm, which was still bandaged and fixed with a triangular bandage. At this moment, it was out of the shackles of the triangular bandage, and it behaved like a normal arm. pull yourself.

Draco smiled awkwardly, "This hand, it's so good that it's so sudden, I was thinking about it one second, and it will be fine the next second, it's amazing."

There was a strange silence between the two until, after a while, Arno turned and walked towards the Hufflepuff common room, with Draco chasing after him, "Oh, Arno, trust me , I didn't want to trick you on purpose and let you take care of me and pretend."
