In Amosta's office, Fred was honestly explaining the reason why they broke into the office, while George was lying on Amosta's bed, moaning softly in a daze. However, after taking Amosta, His nosebleeds finally stopped after Ta prepared a recovery potion with poisonous tentacle seeds added to it.
"Professor McGonagall did warn me to be wary of you--"
Amosta sat in his office chair, facing Fred's explanation with a dumbfounded expression.
"But she just told me that if I caught you wandering around the castle in the middle of the night during surveillance, don't be too shocked, but she didn't mention the possibility of you breaking into my office...
I have to say that you two are very lucky, because considering that the person who opens the secret room is very likely to be an underage wizard, the magic I reserved in this house is mainly confinement. , if according to my habit when working outside,"
Amosta looked solemnly at the Weasley brothers, who had ghostly looks on their faces, and warned in a very stern tone,
"Maybe at this time, Principal Dumbledore should write a letter of mourning to your parents!"
Even if Amosta didn't remind him, Fred and George themselves realized that their actions this time were indeed too reckless. You know, Amosta Blaine is not a professor in the school. They don't You should have barged into Blaine's office before you figured out his temperament.
Because he had too much blood, George looked haggard as if he might die at any time, but after hearing Amosta's warning, he still managed to sit up from the bed, looking pitiful.
"Teach...oh no, Mr. Brain, for the sake of what we have learned, can you not mention this to Professor McGonagall? We assure you, this will definitely be the last time!"
Fred nodded in agreement hastily,
"Please, Mr. Brain, when we were trapped here just now, George and I had already discussed it. We planned to wash our hands and become little wizards who love learning and obey the rules from now on. Do you think you can let us go? !”
Amosta rolled his eyes, almost amused by the pair. Did he look so stupid?
"Well, anyway"
Amosta did not immediately give them a positive answer. He leaned back in his chair calmly, crossed his fingers on his knees, and looked at them with a half-smile.
"You two have figured out my secret, right?"
Upon hearing this, George no longer had a life-or-death expression, and Fred no longer pretended to have changed his mind. His eyes shone with reverence, and he couldn't wait to offer his compliments to Amosta. .
"You are the most genius wizard I have ever seen, Mr. Brain. Not even Principal Dumbledore can compare with you." Fred, the twin, loudly praised Amosta's wisdom. "You are used to monitor The school’s approach is beyond our wildest dreams!”
"In order to understand your greatness more deeply!"
The two brothers reached a consensus at the moment of eye contact, and George asked respectfully, "Can you explain to us in detail the principle of that thing?"
"Don't even think about it!"
Amosta rolled his eyes even more. Thinking of Bill, who was both good at character and academics, and Charlie, who had outstanding Quidditch talent, he couldn't figure out why the Weasley family had these two... Okay, Ah. Mosta had to admit that Fred and George were actually quite interesting.
The moment he was rejected by Amosta, George lay back on the bed with a grunt, looking deeply hurt. He weakly stretched out his hand to his brother, his voice extremely weak,
"It seems that my last wish cannot be fulfilled. Fred, if you can figure this out one day, remember to tell me at my grave..."
In the end, Amosta did not tell the twin brothers how to make this monitoring system. It was not because he was too precious, but because this thing cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences. It involves many profound transformation magic and alchemy. The principle, even if he said it, the twins wouldn't understand it, let alone do it themselves.
However, he still very generously decided not to hold Fred and George accountable for breaking into his office. After all, they had nothing to do with the secret room.
"Remember to keep what you saw a secret, little guys!"
Before driving the Weasley brothers out of the office, Amosta narrowed his eyes, and the coldness in his voice made Fred and George tremble.
"If I know that you are leaking secrets, or if I find out that you are destroying the monitoring ports I have installed in the castle...two Mr. Weasleys, if I make up my mind to deal with someone, even if it is... I’m afraid Principal Dumbledore can’t stop it!”
"We can swear on Percy's prefect badge, sir, that we will never say a word to anyone else!" the twins promised in unison.
"I hope they can keep their promise--"
Before lying on the bed and closing his eyes to rest, Amosta had this thought in his mind.
In fact, Amosta knew in his heart that it was impossible for the Weasley brothers to completely keep the secret. At least, they would tell Harry, and Harry would never forget to treat his two good friends. Friends shared it, but other than that, they were unlikely to monitor themselves so the story of the little wizard was spread everywhere.
There can be no problem with the trio of protagonists, and the Weasley family is also trustworthy - it was precisely because of Amosta's preconceived misconceptions that he had to spend more time when he could have discovered something very quickly. A lot of effort.
That night, Harry and Ron, who had returned from the campus hospital, were pulled over by Fred and George as soon as they entered the lounge. They dragged Harry to a location near the stairs of the girls' dormitory. There were not many people here, making it easier for them to communicate. .
As the two of them spoke, Harry's expression gradually became solemn, while Ron's mouth opened wider and wider, with a look of unbelievable shock.
No one noticed that at the stairs of the girls' dormitory, a pale figure stood silently for a long time, then quietly retreated into the dark shadows.
"Wait for me here, Ron."
Having figured out the matter, Harry jumped up and ran to the dormitory without looking back. He was going to get his invisibility cloak. It was foreseeable that he and Ron would stay in the school hospital for a while tonight.
It's not curfew time yet, and there are still sporadic little wizards wandering around the castle, but Harry and Ron have already put on that wonderful invisibility cloak. As they walk on the road, their eyes scan the corridor from time to time. It was as if a pair of eyes hidden in the ceiling were staring at him.
"What do you think about this, Harry?"
Strangely, Hermione didn't rush to express her opinion after hearing about this shocking thing. She sat on the bed with her arms folded, and her tone sounded cautious.
Harry lowered his head and said nothing, his emerald green eyes wavering with hesitation. It was not until a long time later that he said in an uncertain tone,
"I think...it's not that hard to accept..."
"Are you crazy, Harry!" Ron, who had already held back his opinions, looked at Harry in surprise.
"Or maybe you didn't hear what Fred and George said... That Blaine is secretly spying on everyone without prior notice. If this kind of violation of freedom should not be stopped, then I will do it. I don’t know what despicable means. By the way, I think Fred and George are very likely to have been controlled. They actually think such behavior is quite funny?”
"There are still many things that you can't figure out, Ron," Hermione accused unceremoniously, "Why can't you put yourself in Harry's shoes and think about it?"
From Harry's perspective?
Ron's eyes sparkled with strange stupidity. He looked at Hermione who was annoyed, and Harry who looked embarrassed. He suddenly felt that his IQ could not keep up with the average level of the team.
"Can anyone kindly explain this to me?"
After a while, Ron still couldn't wait for anyone to express his opinion. He muttered unhappily.
"Does this need to be said, Ron?" Hermione pointed at the black hair on her face with her fingertips - this is a new hobby she has recently developed.
"It is indeed not noble to monitor the daily actions of all little wizards without prior notification, and it is even against the law, but Ron, you can't deny that this is indeed a very effective way, right?
As long as the heir of Slytherin can be caught, then all the rumors that Harry is currently carrying will be self-explanatory, and he will no longer have to face those stupid accusations... Moreover, without Principal Dumbledore and Dean With our permission, do you think Mr. Blaine would use this method? "
"At least something like this will prove my innocence the next time someone is attacked," Harry muttered, feeling ashamed of his own selfishness.
"I really don't want to have anything to do with this anymore..."
