[HP] Hogwarts students

The waiting time was not long, but it felt like a century to me.The headmaster nodded to us and left, but he specifically told me to meet him in the headmaster's office after visiting Harry.

"What's the matter with Dumbledore looking for you?" Hermione looked at me with probing eyes, but I could only reply with a confused expression. What could be the topic between me and Dumbledore?Could it be Scabbers?

Madam Pomfrey allowed us to visit Harry, but only for five minutes.Because, she said, "Patients need enough quiet to be able to rest!"

Harry half leaned against the head of the bed, with a smile on his pale face, looking very listless, he looked at me and twitched his lips: "I'm sorry, Kelly. I didn't mean to lie to you."

Looking at this pitiful face, I immediately forgave him: "Don't worry, Harry. I'm not angry anymore, we are good friends, and it doesn't mean we can't have secrets between us."

Immediately afterwards, Harry, the protagonist of the whole incident, told us the true story, which was more terrifying and more thrilling than the six rumored versions.When I learned that Quirrell had a mysterious man stuck to the back of his head, my eyes widened and I couldn't even breathe.

"Fred and George...they attacked You-Know-Who!" I remembered the snowball fight a few weeks ago, when the Weasley twins used snowballs to attack Professor Quirrell's hood, and I stood at the end of the corridor laughing.At that time, the mysterious man was honestly hiding on the back of Quirrell's head!

Ron remembered it too, and he took a more horrified breath, as if someone had pinched his neck.But I don’t know why, but I wanted to laugh when I thought of the mysterious man being covered in snowballs, so I kept holding back my laughter for the next half of the story.

"Dumbledore asked you to meet him later?" Harry looked at me with strange eyes after hearing Hermione's report, "It's amazing, he seems to know everything, maybe Kelly, you There are also secrets that we don't know about."

Only the big secret of Scabbers.I thought to myself.

Before we were driven away by Madam Pomfrey, Harry held my hand worriedly: "Kelly, don't be too nervous, Dumbledore is a very wise man, he must have something very important Looking for you."

I nodded indiscriminately, and anxiously came to the door of Dumbledore's office on the third floor. There was a huge ugly stone beast at the door. I read it according to the password Dumbledore told me, and the stone beast immediately moved away. The wall also slowly cracked.

"Oh, Miss Morris. Welcome, welcome." When I came up the spiral staircase, Dumbledore was sitting behind the desk, next to a tall gilded perch, on which a fiery red phoenix was resting .

After I walked in, the portraits of the previous headmasters hanging on the wall began to whisper and talk to each other. Seeing me look at them with curious eyes, one of the gentlemen even straightened his chest.

"Please sit down, Miss Morris." Dumbledore was wearing a pair of golden glasses, eating cockroaches with relish, I touched my arm on the chair on the other side of the desk, and he pushed the candy bowl towards me push.

The types of candies on this desk are almost comparable to the various gifts Harry received!In addition to piles of cockroaches and chocolate frogs, there are also zizi honey candies, ice mice, and even lemon snow treasures, which are snacks in the Muggle world.

Dumbledore took a sip of the delicious cocoa milk and poured me a glass too.I picked an ice mouse and threw it into my mouth. The cold taste instantly melted on the tip of my tongue, followed by a touch of sweetness and a chill that swept over my body. I shivered and took a sip of hot cocoa. The alternating sensations of heat nearly lifted me to heaven.

"Principal, why did you ask me to come..." Although Dumbledore kept looking at me with a smile, I was still embarrassed to drink the third cup of cocoa milk. I sat up straight, wiped my mouth and sat down asked.

"Oh yes. I want to tell you a story about Ron's pet Scabbers."

I have heard enough stories today, but each one is more exciting than the other.From the stories narrated by Dumbledore, tragic and thrilling scenes appeared in front of my eyes, full of bravery, betrayal, grievances and grievances. At the end, I couldn't help but shed tears.

"Did the people from the Ministry of Magic take away Pedilu?" I gritted my teeth and wiped away my tears. If that hateful and shameless guy was standing in front of me, I would definitely use the Tarantella dance greet him. "Then when will Black be released? Harry must really want to see him!"

Dumbledore's eyes were very gentle, and he answered me in a soft tone: "Soon, Miss Morris. At present, the Ministry of Magic is actively collecting evidence, and when you start school in the second year, an innocent person will be punished. .”

"He has not been exposed to the world outside the prison for more than ten years. If he can meet his beloved godson, that is, Harry, it will definitely be a great comfort."

I clenched the handle of the mug tightly with tears in my eyes, my heart was so soft that it was a mess.Even though Blake was an adult in his decades, I couldn't help but feel a pity for him whom I had never met.

"Now, I hope you can keep it a secret for the time being, and wait until the Ministry of Magic actually releases him, and then let the news be announced to the world." Dumbledore said, but he winked at me.

"Or you can reveal some details to Harry and them. I think Harry deserves such a wonderful end-of-term gift."

The next night was the school's year-end banquet, and we all sat at the long table early except for Harry.The whole hall was decked out in Slytherin green and silver, as they won the House Cup again, for the seventh year in a row.

The other three houses were not in high spirits, only the usually quiet Slytherins were more noisy. They congratulated each other, toasted each other, and looked at the long table of Gryffindor with smug eyes, especially Pansy Parkinson , she kept provoking me with a very mean smile, I couldn't stand it.

"I'll sleep for a while." I rolled my eyes at her, turned to Hermione and said, lying on the long table and burying my face in it.I wasn't running away, nor was I afraid. Ever since I started thinking about how to tell Harry the secret, I've been suffering from insomnia. I didn't sleep at all last night.

I still remember my own attitude when I was hiding from Harry, and when it was time to confess, I flinched.Maybe I shouldn't have kept it secret from Scabbers in the first place, and Ron and Hermione, we've been through so much.

This matter is a great thing for Harry, his aunt and uncle are not good to him, now there is another godfather who can treat him well, what a great thing!Even if... even if Harry doesn't talk to me anymore, and Ron and Hermione look at me with disappointment, I have to tell them.

I was about to fall asleep in a daze with paper balls stuffed in my ears, but Hermione suddenly picked me up, and I stared at her with wide eyes in surprise, and the whole hall turned into a sea of ​​red and gold .Hermione said something to me excitedly, I looked confused, George leaned over and slapped off my earplugs, and then yelled loudly: "Gryffindor got the House Cup! The House Cup!"

I immediately turned to look at the long Slytherin table. Parkinson lowered his head like a battered chicken, and Malfoy was also dumbfounded and worried.

I turned around again, and Hermione, Parvati, and Lavender were all jumping and hugging excitedly, and the boys surrounded Harry, Ron, and Neville, propping them up with their bodies and throwing them in mid-air , Percy mixed in, happily holding up his youngest brother.

Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs cheered too, we hugged and congratulated each other, clinked glasses with pumpkin juice, and screamed almost toppled the hall.The sound of celebration rang all night, until we returned to the lounge, Seamus and Dean were still hugging Neville excitedly.

"Harry, wait a moment." Seeing that Harry and Ron were going back to the dormitory, I hesitated to stop them and stopped Hermione.

"What's the matter? Kelly." Harry's face flushed with joy, it could be seen that he ate a lot of desserts and drank a lot of juice tonight, and he was resting against the wall while rubbing his stomach.

When the last student in the common room had gone upstairs, I finally told all three of them the whole story that Dumbledore had told me.Harry's shocked expression was very similar to Hermione's, and Ron was blue-faced when he heard Scabbers' true identity, and looked like he wanted to throw up everything he ate all night.

"So... this is the secret I'm keeping from you." I anxiously waited for my fate, my hands were intertwined, and my fingertips turned white.

"So I have a godfather? He... He was my parents' best friend before, and he was framed by another good friend and spent more than ten years in prison?" Harry's voice was a little choked up.

"So Scabbers is a grown, bald, fat man? And he blew up a street of Muggles? He's still in my house for 12 years? Is that... the one that always sleeps next to my pillow? Ron asked dumbfounded, he was really about to vomit, and Hermione glanced at him with a veiled look.

"So that man named Pediru is currently being interrogated by the Ministry of Magic. As long as they go through the process, can Harry's godfather be released?" Hermione's expression was serious, and she looked quite angry, "Then Mr. Black What about the years that were wasted? After being wronged by the Ministry of Magic, he spent so many years in Azkaban, did the Ministry of Magic mention any compensation for him?"

I didn't expect this, and Dumbledore didn't tell me.I scratched my head, but none of them focused on the same thing, so I could only answer their questions one by one, and then asked nervously: "Aren't you angry with me? I kept it from you for half a semester, and I didn't tell you." .”

The three of them looked at each other, and Hermione burst out laughing: "Is this scene familiar? It's just that our positions have been exchanged."

"What you thought at the time is what we think now, Kelly." Harry also laughed, and he hugged me very proactively. I leaned on his shoulder in a daze and looked at Ron. and Hermione.

They nodded and followed suit. The four of us hugged and huddled together by the fireplace, like a big group of glue caterpillars stuck together. I felt the body temperature on my body and face getting higher and higher. Gao, the whole person is about to spontaneously combust.

"...It's too hot!"
