Chapter 557: Was targeted
Chapter 557: Was targeted
The cumulonimbus cloud in October never dissipated from the top of everyone's heads. The heavy rain kept falling, and a faint smell of moldy could be smelled in the corner of the castle.
For the upcoming Halloween dinner, Hagrid had to spend a lot of time rescuing the big soaked pumpkins in the pumpkin field to prevent them from being soaked by the rain.
The weather on the weekend was rare to clear. Albert went to Hagrid’s hunting lodge for afternoon tea and listened to the other party casually talking about Professor Kettlebo’s hospitalization. "
"When did it happen?" Albert asked, rubbing his teeth.
"Yesterday." Hagrid sighed lightly. "Professor Keitelberg bought a house in Hogsmeade and plans to settle there to accompany his cute little cuties. When he was sorting his belongings, he was sniffed mischievously. I stumbled. Fortunately, the house elves who had sent food found out in time, and they are still training in the St. Mungo Hospital for Magical Injuries."
"Professor Keitelberg may have to retire early." Albert was not surprised. The professor's body was not very good. "If you want to apply for the protection of magical creatures professor, you should think about what you want to teach you in advance. , Don’t underestimate the risks you will encounter with magical creatures. Students are not as rough as you are, they can’t resist tossing."
Hagrid looked at Albert in amazement, and the other party said bluntly that he would fill the vacancy of Professor Kettlebo and become Hogwarts' professor of protection of magical animals.
"You can take the time to visit Professor Keitelber and ask him about teaching skills." Albert reminded: "Don't bring any weird things into the classroom, especially those that may harm students. Magical creature."
Albert doubts whether his words are effective, but as a friend, he should remind him.
When he left the hunting lodge, Hagrid was still in a daze, as if thinking about what Albert had just said.
No way, Albert's words are very accurate, maybe he can really apply for the protection of magical animals professor?
However, Hagrid felt that he had to explore Mrs. Grapland's tone to see if the other party wanted to apply for the position of Professor of Fantastic Animal Protection.
On the way back to the castle, Albert met Ginny Weasley. The oncoming red-haired girl gave him an inexplicable weird feeling. Albert raised his head and met her gaze, and found that Ginny Weasley’s eyes seemed to lose the child’s original agility, making his The pupils could not help but dilate slightly.
"Is it controlled by Voldemort?" Albert walked away, then looked back at Ginny's back and fell into a brief hesitation.
If you bring down Ginny Weasley now, you will definitely be able to find Tom Riddle’s diary from the other party. As long as you destroy the Horcrux, there will be no more attacks, but those panel tasks of yours are extremely It might be all over, and it's not easy to explain it to Dumbledore.
Albert has never underestimated Dumbledore, he will definitely be seen as a flaw.
One can be accidental, and two accidents are worthy of Dumbledore's careful consideration.
"Forget it, just be careful, and let other things take their course." Albert raised his hand and pushed the frame of the picture, and continued to walk towards the castle.
What Ginny Weasley or Tom Riddle wants to do is actually not difficult to guess.
The crow of a rooster is deadly to the basilisk.
Naturally, Tom Riddle knew this, so he would never want roosters around the castle.
"Should I raise a rooster as a pet?" Albert muttered to himself. He quickly threw this idea behind him. Raising a rooster was too much trouble. He thought it would produce a rooster. The crying toy is a good choice, but I don't know if it is useful for the basilisk.
"The'screaming chicken' of the last life was very popular." After careful consideration, Albert felt that the "screaming chicken" is a good selling point. It does not necessarily have to make a scream, it can be other sounds, and can be used in the future. Product of joke props.
As for, after the attack, Albert had never thought about selling the ‘screaming chicken’ as an amulet. After all, it was easy to be targeted, and it is estimated that no one would buy that as a amulet.
After Albert had gone away, Tom Riddle turned his head and looked at Albert's leaving back. For some reason, an inexplicable anxiety suddenly surged in his heart.
Tom was completely unaware that he almost had a cold just now. If Albert directly violently subdued Ginny, he would be able to arrange his Horcrux in minutes.
Tom once heard Ginny mention this Muggle wizard named Albert Anderson, who is said to be a genius and won the international wizard chess champion not long ago.
Of course, Albert Anderson is an insignificant existence to Tom. He cares more about Harry Potter. He wants to know how the young Harry defeated Voldemort, so he did not pay too much attention to it. For Albert, even if the opponent is a famous genius at Hogwarts School.
After all, Tom Riddle was a genius in the school before. He didn't really have much interest in the so-called genius, and it was a good choice to treat him as prey.
If such a genius is killed by a basilisk, it will definitely cause a sensation.
Suddenly I was looking forward to it!
After discovering that Hagrid was at home, Tom did not attack the rooster in the chicken coop. After a stroll around the hunting lodge, we returned directly to the castle.
When Albert returned to the castle, he noticed that he had a new mission. Before he checked the mission, he saw Hermione trotting over here, breathlessly telling him about the last one. thing.
Hermione mentioned the establishment of the Dark Arts Defense Club and invited Lockhart as a mentor. won the support of a group of Lockhart fans, but this matter was not organized by her, but by A senior student who admired Lockhart founded a club called "Admiration of Guidro Lockhart."
Hermione soon discovered that this club was different from what she had imagined, so she wanted to invite Albert to form their own Defense Against the Dark Arts club.
"Sorry, I'm afraid not." Albert shook his head and refused.
He is very busy, with twelve courses to attend, and several clubs to participate in, so there is no spare time to participate in the Defense Against the Dark Arts club.
However, Albert gave Hermione some advice and asked her to invite Harry Potter to join the club.
"Is this really okay?"
"Did you not notice that Professor Lockhart pays particular attention to Harry Potter?" Albert reminded: "If you want to succeed, you need to pull Harry Potter into the club, because Lockhart only Harry Potter is interested. Believe me, as long as Harry Potter is in the Defense Against the Dark Arts club, Lockhart will definitely be willing to come and guide you."
"Why is Professor Lockhart interested in Harry?" Hermione was puzzled.
"I don't know, maybe Lockhart is interested in Harry's defeat of the mysterious man!" Albert casually found an excuse to perfuse Hermione. He knew that a club that started from learning the defense against the dark arts came to Lockhart. Said that there is no attraction.
Only Harry can attract Lockhart.
Although Hermione still didn't understand the meaning of Albert's words, she knew that Harry had simply avoided Lockhart and would never be willing to join the "Defense Against the Dark Arts Club" unless... Min quickly thought of a solution.
